The Legendary Master’s Wife - Chap 115

Chapter 115: Real or Fake

“Don’t come over or I’ll kill him.” The black-clothed man clutching You XiaoMo shouted in terror.

After killing off his three companions instantaneously, the speed and the ruthlessness of Ling Xiao’s actions suddenly terrified him. He had wanted to kidnap You XiaoMo to threaten him. Suddenly extreme fear and dread appeared in his eyes.

“Let him go and I will leave you an intact corpse.” Ling Xiao looked at him with ice-cold eyes. His voice, on the other hand, was still as refined as jade. Not especially amiable, yet not especially cold but that crazed and vicious bone-deep aura made people shudder endlessly from the bottom of their hearts.

Seeing this attitude of his, those people hiding in the shadows all started to feel their hearts shake especially the scene where he killed the three Moon level fighters. His smooth movements made it seemed like it was as easy as cutting through tofu. Finishing off three Moon level fighters in an instant as if taking a club to the head, caused their hearts to fill with fear and panic. In their hearts, they knew that they had underestimated this man’s power.

Ling Xiao’s ominous manner made the black-clothed man’s hand shake in fright, almost causing him to nick You XiaoMo’s neck.

After witnessing Ling Xiao’s bloody moves, there was no way he was going to let go of You XiaoMo as he was now his life-saving charm. If he let him go, he would definitely end up just like his compatriots. Thinking like this, the black-clothed man calmed down his heart. That was right, he had a hostage now. There was no need to fear him.

“Hand over your magic bag to me. Or else, I’ll kill him.”

“I gave you a chance. It’s you who refused to cherish it.” Ling Xiao’s eyes got sharper as he said this sentence softly.

The black-clothed person still hadn’t understood his words when he saw Ling Xiao flick his finger. In an instant, two flame dragons shot out from his body. As soon as the flame dragons appeared, the temperature all around shot up, as if the sun suddenly got closer, roasting the earth.

Seeing these flame dragons, the face of the black-clothed man changed immediately. He had already seen with his own eyes, the power of these flame dragons. Seeing them again now, he was of course filled with incomparable dread. He quickly gripped You XiaoMo’s neck tightly with his right hand, the force causing his fingernails to almost sink into his flesh. He shouted in terror, “Do you want to see your friend die? Don’t think I won’t kill him. I really will take his life.”

Ling Xiao’s lips abruptly turned up into a sneer.

“That’s not right!” Elder Yun who was hiding in the shadows suddenly said in a low voice. His gaze became sharp as he looked at You XiaoMo, “That young man is fake.”

Mu Yao at his side heard this and scanned You XiaoMo’s body, coming to rest finally on his pale face.

The young man’s neck was being squeezed by the black-clothed man. Usually, the person’s face should become very red. But this young man, not only did the color of his face not change, from the start to end, he didn’t seem to have any reaction at all. If things were unusual, something must be up. No wonder she kept thinking that something was not quite right.

While at the Seven Stars Tower, she already saw that the relationship between the two people were very close. Although, people would turn selfish when it came to the crucial moment between life and death, still, this white robed person seemed to be too uncaring over the life of his friend. Not showing the slightest change in expression from beginning to end.

Now that Elder Yun had pointed it out, she finally realized what was wrong. But when did they switch him out? They actually managed to pull it off that even the gods didn’t know and the ghosts didn’t realize. It must be known that Elder Yun and her started tailing them the moment they left Seven Stars Tower.

“Elder Yun, can you guess where he put the other guy?” Mu Yao asked out loud.

“There are two possibilities.” Elder Yun pondered and said solemnly, “The first is that he has a dimension. This way, they can indeed evade our surveillance.”

“Impossible!” Mu Yao refuted without even needing to think about it.

Only those of Imperial level and above were able to possess the dimensions. That was because the so-called dimension was created when a powerful person used his supernatural ability to tear out a dimension and turn it into a tiny size dimension for his own use, a magic weapon used to store things that could be brought along with him wherever he went.

This type of dimension was a thousand times, ten thousand times better compared to the so-called magic bags. Since, unlike the magic bags that could only store dead things, it could store living things and on top of that, it could accumulate concentrated spiritual energy by itself. That spiritual energy was even stronger than that of Long Xiang Continent. Therefore it was the best place to train and also to grow magic herbs.

However, the dimension was something that could not be found by seeking but only by chance because even a person of Imperial level and above may not necessarily be able to tear out a dimension and turn it into his personal dimension.

As long as one had elementary cultivation knowledge, one would know that dimensions were extremely unstable things. If one had bad luck, tearing out an unstable dimension, the spatial energy of that dimension would tear them to pieces. Even if that person was of Imperial strength, facing the violent chaos of spatial energy, he would only be left with death.

This was why Mu Yao instantly rejected the notion. Putting aside whether Ling Xiao was actually of Imperial level, it must be known that even if one gathered all the powerful practitioners in Long Xiang Continent that were of Imperial level and above, one may not be able to find many that have a pocket dimension.

That was why she rejected it right away. But of course there was another reason.

If Ling Xiao was really a powerful Imperial level practitioner, that meant all these people here most probably would not have a chance of leaving this green plain alive today.

Elder Yun didn’t disagree with her words. Instead, he nodded, “Old me also thought that it is impossible. looked like it can only be the second possibility. That young man was most probably switched in Seven Stars Tower. Young miss should still remember that at that time, they returned once to the room.”

“Elder Yun, are you saying that the young man is still in HunJi City?” Mu Yao guessed.

“Eight to nine out of ten. But he could have taken the opportunity to leave HunJi City when we left in pursuit.”

Elder Yun’s expression was rather somber. If they could have gotten hold of that young man, that would have been the surest way. It was too bad they were all fooled.

Mu Yao’s gaze swept over the people in front and said in a low voice, “Elder Yun, there is one thing Young Yao didn’t understand. Yesterday, that black-robed person also won some spiritual liquid. He is only one person. Why did we not go ambush him instead of following these two people?”

“You think old me didn’t send someone to monitor him? It’s just that the black-robed man is very strange. He actually managed to shake off our people. I believe that was also what happened to the other forces. If not, why would Ji Le Sect and the Xue Sha Clan end up like us, running here to rob and kill them?”

A somber look flashed across Elder Yun’s face. Ji Le Sect and the Xue Sha Clan were not weak. If they were to take action, Xiao Yao Sect would probably not be at an advantage.

“Look like we can only sit and watch, and wait for them to act first.” Mu Yao muttered softly. Although she was very anxious, she believed that Ji Le Sect and the Xue Sha Clan were just as anxious.

By the time they finished talking, that black-clothed person was already killed by Ling Xiao. As for the fake You XiaoMo, he vanished into a puff of air. Seeing that no one was holding back Ling Xiao, the other forces couldn’t help but take action.

Ten or so powerful auras filled with murderous intent dashed to the skies as they all charged violently towards Ling Xiao. Not a cry was raised as the sharp weapons in their hands gleamed with dazzling light. The cutting edges aimed one after another at Ling Xiao’s vital points.

Facing the attack of so many powerful people, even people like Mu YunTian and Elder Yun would have to take defensive measures. Instead, Ling Xiao didn’t dodge nor hide. The purple flame dragons seemed to be inexhaustible. Ten or so exploding from his body in an instant, sweeping towards all the fighters like lightning.

Although most of them were on guard, when they put up their shields, the flame dragons passed right through their bodies as if there was nothing there. Not only that, each and every one that was penetrated by the flame dragons, the blood from the bodies evaporated completely. When the corpses fell on the floor, they were all bloodless mummies, as if they had all been sucked dry.

Just when Elder Yun and Mu Yao wanted to take action, they saw this scene, and turned pale with fright.

It wasn’t just them, even the hidden leader of HunJi City was shocked by this scene. Flames that could even evaporate blood. The intensity of that heat probably exceeded their imagination.

Who was this person? Actually possessing such a strange flame and it was purple. Simply neither heard nor seen before!

Ling Xiao, who finished off ten or so fighters in an instant, puts down his hand and slowly took a breath. This was way too many people asking for death making him waste his time. If he wasn’t worried about exposing his strength too early, he would be too lazy to entertain them.

Taking a sweeping look all around and seeing that the hidden people don’t plan to show themselves, Ling Xiao also had no intention of seeking them out. Turning around, he took four or five steps and suddenly a loud voice that split the sky came from behind him.

An arrow enveloped in black rays moved under a strange force, shooting towards Ling Xiao’s back. Then when the arrow got within three meters of Ling Xiao, it seemed to meet an obstruction, stopping immediately. Then it looked as if someone used their hands to bend it, as the tip of the arrow slowly turned around, and with a sound, shot back to where it came from, ending with a scream.

Ling Xiao turned around slowly and stomped his foot lightly using that strong momentum to rush forward instantly.

The faces of all the people hidden underwent a huge change. Their shocked expressions were tinged with horror.

The gray-robed person conveniently threw aside the subordinate with an arrow stuck in his chest who he used as his shield. His face was unsightly and full of horror, “This person is actually of Five star Celestial level strength. ” He himself was only of One star Celestial level strength.
