As the Purple Poison Miasma enveloped Ling Xiao's body, the crowd couldn't help but laugh in schadenfreude.
There weren't many martial artists in the City of Sin who were sympathetic.
This was truly a place of evil.
But in the next moment, their laughter came to an abrupt halt.
Ling Xiao hadn't even moved, but the terrifying Purple Poison Miasma had completely vanished, as if something had forcefully sucked it away.
A martial artist with better eyesight could vaguely see that something had happened to Ling Xiao's left eye, but it had happened so quickly that not even they could see it clearly.
"The Purple Poison Miasma has been dispelled? And so easily? "
The crowd cried out in alarm. They were very familiar with Mang Xiao's Purple Poison Miasma. Countless martial artists had died tragically to this poison miasma.
Even if they didn't die, they would be at Mang Xiao's mercy after being poisoned. It was simply impossible to dispel it so easily.
"No wonder this brat dared to provoke Mang Xiao. It seems like he does have some skill."
Thinking back to Ling Xiao's encounter with Mo Shaoyou and his current calmness in the face of Mang Xiao, many people had such thoughts.
"Good brat, no wonder you didn't give me, Mang Xiao, face. But in the City of Sin, I advise you to be more cautious. What's your name?"
Mang Xiao smirked as he looked at Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao's strength had truly surprised him, but it wasn't enough to make him fearful.
"Ling Xiao!"
Ling Xiao's expression was as calm as ever, without the slightest hint of excitement. Perhaps it was because he had met so many experts that he had become more mature.
But the moment he heard this name, Mang Xiao's triangular eyes suddenly narrowed and his brow furrowed.
Ling Xiao?
Could it be him?
Mang Xiao had never seen Ling Xiao in person, but he was far too familiar with this name. This person had chased an enemy for a thousand li, killed Timur Mutu, captured Tomohiko Kuma alive, wreaked havoc in the Divine Phoenix Capital, killed the Righteous Alliance's Young Lord, and destroyed the Lightning Demon King.
What was even more frightening was that there was news recently that this kid had returned to the Sky Dragon Continent and wiped out the True Demon Empire in one fell swoop. He had rebuilt the Human Empire and named it the Celestial Empire.
He had even become a Celestial Emperor.
This kind of information was only known to the upper echelons of the major forces. Most of the ordinary people did not know much about Ling Xiao. They might not even have heard of this name.
"The name Ling Xiao seems to ring a bell, but he shouldn't be some great figure. He's not one of the Divine Phoenix Empire's Ten Great Phoenix Sons, nor is he one of Jade Ripple Island's Six Young Masters of the Sword, nor is he one of the Black Crow Empire's Seven Malignant Stars, nor is he related to the Black Python Clan."
In the crowd, many people revealed puzzled expressions. These 23 people were the most outstanding young warriors of the three major forces.
However, Ling Xiao was definitely not one of them.
Even among the cultivators who were second only to these twenty-three people, he didn't seem to have his name.
However, looking at Mang Xiao's expression, everyone understood that Ling Xiao might really be extraordinary. Mang Xiao definitely knew about Ling Xiao.
"Hehe, so it's Brother Ling. Sorry for the disrespect. Since that's the case, take this as my gift to Brother Ling."
Mang Xiao smiled. When he was at home, he had heard from his elders that it was best not to provoke Ling Xiao if he met him.
Although he was not convinced, he still chose to listen to his elders today.
"Thank you!"
Ling Xiao nodded calmly. After all, this was the Black Python Clan's territory. It would be best if there was no conflict. Since the other party was willing to give up, then there was no problem.
"No way, Mang Xiao is actually afraid?"
"Looks like this kid is really extraordinary. He can actually make Mang Xiao choose to give up."
The crowd started to discuss again.
When Mang Xiao heard this, although he was annoyed, he could still hold it in. After all, he was considered the successor of the Black Python Clan. How could he not have some self-control?
However, although he could hold it in, the people who came with him could not.
Ling Xiao turned back to trade with the stall owner. Just as he took the ancient jade in his hand, a dangerous aura suddenly attacked from behind.
That feeling was like being sneak attacked by a snake.
Ling Xiao's lips curled into a cold smile.
If people don't offend me, I won't offend them.
If people offend me, I will definitely offend them!
He could give Mang Xiao face, but if someone insisted on dealing with him, then sorry.
He did not turn around, but a ball of dazzling light suddenly condensed on his back.
This light flashed and disappeared.
What followed was a blood-curdling scream.
"Ah …"
The hands of the person who had ambushed Ling Xiao were completely burnt. They were charred black, and when the wind blew, they turned into ashes.
Everyone looked over in surprise.
They thought that everything would be fine, but they did not expect such a thing to happen.
The onlookers were naturally very excited, but the Black Python Clan's martial artists did not look so good.
"Brother, what's going on? What happened to your hand?"
"Bastard, this bastard attacked me!"
The face of the cultivator whose hands were completely destroyed was deathly pale, large beads of sweat constantly dripping from his head. However, his eyes were filled with a fierce killing intent, as if he wanted to tear Ling Xiao into a thousand pieces and cut him into a thousand pieces.
Ling Xiao put the ancient jade into his storage ring, then turned back to look at the pair of ferocious eyes. Suddenly, he pointed his finger.
The Shadow Awl pierced through the air and directly pierced through the martial artist's throat.
The martial artist's throat gurgled as if he wanted to say something, but no words came out.
The ferocity in his eyes had already turned into terror.
Never in his wildest dreams would he have imagined that Ling Xiao would dare to attack him in front of Mang Xiao in the City of Sin.
Actually, Ling Xiao didn't want this to happen either. It was just that after being ambushed, he still had to be framed for plotting.
He did not have such a good temper.
"I can't accept this!"
Even though it was hard for him to make a sound, four clear words still popped out from his muffled words.
He really could not accept this. He thought that no one would dare to attack him in the City of Sin. He thought that no one would dare to kill him in front of Mang Xiao.
However, he was wrong. He was ridiculously wrong.
The price for this mistake was his life.
Everyone on the street was shocked. Even those who were stronger than Ling Xiao were shocked by his brazen provocation.
They might dare to attack the Black Python Clan, but they definitely would not dare to attack in front of Mang Xiao and so many people in broad daylight.
How was this killing a person? This was basically declaring war on the Black Python Clan.
The Black Python Clan was incomparably powerful, and he had the support of the Black Crow Empire, Divine Phoenix Empire, and Jade Ripple Island's upper echelons.
Making an enemy out of the Black Python Clan meant making an enemy out of these three forces.
This young man was really crazy.
"You have to pay the price for speaking carelessly. If I wanted to plot against someone, I would do it against a Grotto Heaven Realm martial artist. Are you worthy?"
Ling Xiao glanced at the corpse on the ground indifferently and threw out a sentence.
There was no need to explain anything.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was much stronger than that person. It was impossible for him to plot against him.
