When Ling Xiao saw Xia Huang and the other two appear, his eyes flashed, and the Heaven-Swallowing Sword in his hand slowly lost its edge. The aura that had merged into the earth also slowly dissipated.
The fatal threat disappeared. Xu Liangcheng looked at Ling Xiao with some confusion, but did not say anything. His eyes fell on Xia Huang and the other two.
"Everyone has said that the three of you have been in seclusion in order to break through the realm of kings and princes, and have turned into dry bones. I never thought that this small ancient country of Dahuang has produced many outstanding people!"
Xu Liangcheng said calmly, then looked at Xia Huang and said, "Ling Xiao killed someone from the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, so he must pay with his life. Are you still going to stop me?"
Although his expression was calm, there was a turbulent wave in his heart. The kings of the four ancient countries had relied too much on the dragon vein energy. In the past few thousand years, almost no one had broken through to the king realm. The ninth level of the heavenly realm was already the limit.
However, now Xia Huang actually broke this legendary curse. How could he not be shocked
Moreover, although the three people in front of him had just broken through to the half-step king realm, with Juechen's elegant temperament and Chunyang Zhenren's subtle aura, only Xia Huang made Xu Liangcheng feel a strong threat.
"Friend Xu, the life-and-death battle between Ling Xiao and the Myriad Beasts Sect was proposed by you, and Ling Xiao also agreed. So what? After you kill the younger ones, the older ones will just jump out regardless of everything?"
Ling Juechen did not give Xu Liangcheng any face and sneered.
Xia Huang also said slowly: "Friend Xu, since the life-and-death duel is over, why don't we just forget about it? With your status, attacking Ling Xiao, isn't that too much of a bully?"
Although True Man Chunyang did not say anything and looked smiling, he also looked like he wanted to help Ling Xiao.
Xu Liangcheng's face darkened, and a hint of anger appeared in his eyes. He did not expect that these three people were determined to stand on Ling Xiao's side. If there was only one person who was at the half-step king level, perhaps he would still be able to fight.
However, although the man in front of him had just broken through to the Half-Step King Realm, Xu Liangcheng would not be his match if they attacked at the same time.
"So what if it's a life-and-death duel? Since Ling Xiao dared to kill the Tiger King, he must be prepared to die. The dignity of my Wanshou Sect cannot be insulted! Are you sure you want to be my enemy?"
Xu Liangcheng looked at Xia Huang and the other two and said grimly.
Xia Huang frowned slightly, but still said calmly: "Friend Xu, we will not be enemies with the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect! It's just that Ling Xiao is from my Great Wilderness Ancient Country, and he is also the descendant of an old friend of the three of us, so we can't just sit back and watch you kill him!"
Pure Yang Zhenren also smiled and said: "Friend Xu, perhaps you don't know who Ling Xiao's master is. If you knew, you probably wouldn't keep saying you want to kill him!"
"He still has a master?"
Xu Liangcheng was slightly stunned, but then he understood.
With such an incredible talent and unique martial arts, if you say there is no inheritance, Xu Liangcheng would never believe it even if you kill him.
"Of course, his master is that confused old man. Perhaps you have heard of his name!"
True Man Chunyang smiled slightly.
"What?!"
Xu Liangcheng's whole body trembled, and his eyes showed an extremely shocked look.
"Impossible! How could he possibly accept Ling Xiao as his disciple?"
There was a hint of trembling in Xu Liangcheng's voice.
When he heard the names of the four confused old men, he shuddered immediately, because in the four ancient countries, perhaps many people have not heard of the name of the confused old men, but in the five major martial arts holy places, the confused old men are well-known.
Legend has it that he dressed very shabbily, loved to play around, liked drinking and eating, and had superb alchemy skills, having reached the level of a legendary alchemy master.
Legend has it that he was already a master of alchemy a thousand years ago. Now, as the master of the five major martial arts holy places, one has to bow respectfully when seeing him.
Legend has it that he is the most powerful alchemy master in the entire Eight Desolate Territory, and also the number one person in the Eight Desolate Territory!
Such a person has become a legend. At least when Xu Liangcheng was a child, he had heard the legend of the confused old man.
"What's impossible? I'm afraid you don't know yet, Ling Xiao not only has an extraordinary talent in martial arts, but also an even more terrifying talent in alchemy. He is now a top-grade alchemy master. Otherwise, how could he be favored by the confused old man?"
Ling Juechen smiled faintly.
"A top-grade alchemy master?"
This name also frightened Xu Liangcheng so much that he looked at Ling Xiao as if he had seen a ghost.
This young man looks no more than sixteen years old, with a delicate face and a bright smile, but he possesses unparalleled combat power and is actually a top-grade alchemy master
In the entire Eight Wildernesses, the most talented alchemist in legend is Zhao Ritian from the Sun, Moon and Stars Sect. However, he did not break through to the level of a mid-level alchemy master until he was in his twenties.
A top-grade alchemy master at the age of sixteen is simply horrifying.
"I'm sure you are very clear about Ling Xiao's life experience. The Changsheng Sect he belongs to is just an inferior sect. He was able to have such a terrifying change in such a short period of time. I'm afraid that in the entire Eight Desolate Territory, except for that confused old man, no one else can do it, right? Fellow Daoist Xu, so I hope you can let Ling Xiao go, which can be regarded as giving face to the confused old man!"
True Man Chunyang smiled slightly.
Xu Liangcheng's face suddenly darkened, and there was murderous intent in his eyes when he looked at Ling Xiao, but more of it was fear and unwillingness.
In his heart, he still believed what Ling Juechen and Chunyang Zhenren said. After all, the miracle that happened to Ling Xiao could only be done by the legendary confused old man.
But the Wanshou Sect has already offended Ling Xiao. Will Ling Xiao be willing to let it go
If this child grows up, it will definitely be a disaster for the Wanshou Sect!
However, he did not dare to take action against Ling Xiao.
This matter was no longer something he could decide. Xu Liangcheng had to report to the Supreme Master and the other great elders of the Wanshou Sect as soon as possible and let them make the decision.
"Friend Xu, let's stop here for today! A life-and-death duel is fair in itself and does not humiliate the dignity of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect!"
Xia Huang glanced at Xu Liangcheng and said lightly.
Seeing that Xia Huang had given him a way out, Xu Liangcheng snorted coldly and said, "In that case, I will give the three Taoist friends a favor. Ling Xiao, I hope you can take care of yourself in the future!"
Xu Liangcheng glanced at Ling Xiao and said coldly.
"You don't need to worry about this! As long as the Ten Thousand Beast Sect doesn't come to provoke me, there will be no problem. But if the Ten Thousand Beast Sect is blind, don't blame me for going on a killing spree!"
Ling Xiao smiled faintly, as if he didn't notice the coldness in Xu Liangcheng's eyes at all.
