After killing all the assassins from the underworld, the journey became much calmer.
The north wind was howling, snowflakes were flying, dark clouds were rolling in the sky, and there was a vast expanse of white between heaven and earth, as if Ling Xiao was the only one left.
Ling Xiao circulated his true energy and took a dozen feet with one step. He flew through the snow without leaving any footprints. It was as if he was flying in the snow. With a light touch, he flew over a dozen feet.
No trace in the snow!
If someone saw it, they would be extremely shocked. This is an extremely advanced skill of lightness Kung Fu.
Only those who are strong in the realm of heaven and man can fly in the air, and only those who are strong in the realm of grandmaster can walk on the snow without leaving any trace, or even stay in the void for a short time.
Ling Xiao's Heaven-Swallowing Qi is extremely powerful, not much different from that of a Grandmaster.
After dark, Ling Xiao rested in an inn for a day. On the second day, the heavy snow had stopped and the sun shone brightly on the earth, revealing a world of ice and snow.
Ling Xiao continued on his way, and before long, he saw a huge and majestic city appearing on the horizon in the distance.
The majestic city covered a vast area, like an ancient ferocious beast lying dormant on the earth.
The city wall was built with a kind of red stone, hundreds of feet high, and looked like flowing flames in the sun, appearing extremely dazzling.
"We've finally arrived at the Royal Capital!"
There was a hint of strangeness in Ling Xiao's eyes.
This royal capital was not unfamiliar to Ling Xiao, because it had existed ten thousand years ago. As the capital of the ancient country of Dahuang, it was an imperial structure where nine dragons gathered, and it had extraordinary fortune.
The royal capital exudes an old and ancient atmosphere. The city walls are mottled and have traces of potholes on them, showing that this ancient city has experienced countless storms and baptisms of war.
The further Ling Xiao walked, the more he could feel the vicissitudes and antiquity of the royal capital.
The direction Ling Xiao was heading towards was the main gate of the royal capital, the Dahuang Gate. It faced north and south, and had an aura that could swallow up the world.
The eight gates were wide open, and people were coming and going, showing the prosperity of the royal capital.
The Royal Capital is different from small cities like Qinghua City. The Royal Capital covers an area of several hundred miles and has a population of tens of millions. It is home to high-ranking officials and wealthy people from the ancient country of Dahuang, and is very prosperous.
Outside the city gate, soldiers wearing armor and full of vigor stood guard, their eyes like hawks, watching the people passing by indifferently.
These soldiers defending the city are all at least at the Qi realm, and they are filled with murderous aura. They are all elite soldiers who have fought in hundreds of battles on the battlefield.
Ling Xiao stood behind the long line and slowly walked towards the city with the crowd.
"Get out of the way, everyone!"
At this moment, there was a commotion from the crowd behind.
Ling Xiao turned his head and saw a chariot coming from a distance. The chariot was emitting red light all over, which was very extraordinary.
The two tigers pulling the cart were pure white. They exuded a powerful aura, their eyes were red, and their limbs contained great strength. They were actually fifth-level monsters!
Two tiger beasts comparable to the Grandmaster level!
On both sides of the chariot, there are two teams of guards holding spears and wearing red armor. They look like flowing flames. Each of them is heroic and powerful, with a unique beauty.
These guards are all women!
The curtains on the carriage were hanging down, the necklaces were fluttering, and the red clouds were flickering, making it impossible to see who was inside.
However, Ling Xiao could vaguely see that there seemed to be two women on the carriage. Although his faces could not be seen clearly, they had graceful figures, slender hands, and must have extraordinary looks.
The carriage went towards the door on the far left. Only royal family members and high-ranking officials could go through that door.
"It's actually the little princess's Suzaku Camp? Didn't the little princess go to the Sun, Moon and Stars Sect to practice?"
"You don't know this, right? The Great Wilderness New Year Festival. I heard that the little princess is coming back to participate in the New Year Festival this time!"
"I heard that although there are only 360 people in the Suzaku Camp, they are all strong men above the True Qi Realm, and they are all as beautiful as flowers. If anyone marries the little princess, it will not only be a blessing for all, but also a blessing for hundreds or even thousands of people!"
"I got inside information. The little princess returned to the court not only to attend the New Year Festival, but also for another purpose, which is to cancel her engagement with that loser!"
"Engagement? Could it be Ling Xiao, the son of the Demon King? I heard that that big loser has been practicing for many years but still can't open up his meridians. How can such a loser be worthy of the little princess?"
“Who said it wasn’t true? After the disappearance of the Demon Suppression King, that big loser is having a hard time now. I heard that the Ling family has already planned to let Ling Tianci inherit the title of the Demon Suppression King. That big loser is finished!”
"Tsk tsk... Now it's time to watch something interesting!"
"… "
Everyone was talking about it, looking at the carriage slowly approaching in the distance, with awe in their eyes.
"Little Princess Xia Hongxiu? She wants to cancel the engagement. Hehe, this is getting more and more interesting!"
Ling Xiao's eyes flashed and an evil smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
If the original owner, whose body has not yet been taken over by Ling Xiao, heard this, he would probably feel extremely humiliated and would rush over to settle the score with Xia Hongxiu.
But Ling Xiao didn't feel anything. After all, the gap between them was too big. It was naturally expected that Xia Hongxiu didn't want to marry Ling Xiao.
But now Ling Xiao has inherited everything from the master, so it would be fine if Xia Hongxiu didn't provoke him. But if she dared to provoke Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao would definitely teach her a lesson she would never forget.
"I'm selling candied haws. Sweet and fragrant candied haws with rock sugar. Would you like to buy a bunch?"
At this moment, an old woman walked slowly to Ling Xiao's side, holding a straw target with dozens of strings of bright red candied haws on it.
The woman interrupted Ling Xiao's thoughts with a smile.
"Thank you, I don't need it!"
Ling Xiao shook his head, his eyes still on the carriage, and spoke without turning back.
But the next moment, Ling Xiao felt a cold murderous intent coming at him, and it reached his chest almost instantly.
"not good!"
Ling Xiao's eyes flashed with coldness, and he found that the originally old woman now had an extremely cold murderous intent on her face. A dagger appeared in her hand and stabbed towards Ling Xiao's heart.
The knife was extremely ruthless, and the woman's disguise was very good. She took advantage of Ling Xiao's distraction and deceived Ling Xiao's perception. After getting close, she was determined to kill with one blow!
"An assassin from the underworld?!"
Ling Xiao's mind reacted in a flash. He didn't expect that the underworld would take action at this time.
Moreover, the aura of this woman is unfathomable, she is actually a powerful master!
Gold Medal Assassin!
The dark blue dagger stabbed forward, and was about to pierce through Ling Xiao's chest.
