"How is this possible? I clearly heard his voice, and he looks exactly the same. There's also that Grotto-Heaven Realm aura. It can't be fake."
The junior brother rushed over and lay on the ground, searching for traces of Feng Qingyan.
Ling Xiao leaned over to help him up. In that instant, the junior brother suddenly turned his head and spat out a long sword that looked like a poisonous thorn. It flickered with a cold light as it pierced towards him.
Another Grotto-Heaven Realm assassin!
Ling Xiao was shocked in his heart. It turned out that when he was still in the Heaven Realm, those Grotto Heaven Realm martial artists didn't take him seriously at all. Therefore, the people sent to deal with him wouldn't be many Grotto Heaven Realm experts.
But today, he had just exposed his cultivation, and two such powerful assassins had come.
They were both proficient in disguise techniques, and they were both at the Second Grotto-Heaven Realm.
It seemed that his opponent was taking him more and more seriously.
"Kacha!"
At the critical moment, Ling Xiao actually opened his mouth and bit the cold light, and then directly bit it off.
"What!"
The assassin had already done very well. He had concealed his killing intent, and his acting skills were also very good.
But unfortunately, like the assassin who had exposed himself before, his cultivation had exposed his identity.
He was a Grotto Heaven Realm martial artist, while that junior brother of Ling Xiao was only a Heaven Realm martial artist with a Heaven Realm cultivation base.
If he couldn't even distinguish this bit of aura, he could just throw away his Mountain River Martial Spirit.
"You're very strong, but it's a pity that you exposed yourself too early. Otherwise, with the two of you working together, I might really be killed."
Ling Xiao smiled slightly, and had no intention of fighting back.
The assassin knew that it was impossible for him to take action now, so he jumped out of the window and fled into the distance.
This kind of action was also the quality of a qualified assassin.
Just like what Ling Xiao said to Feng Xidao, it was best for an assassin not to face his opponent head-on. Otherwise, it would be equivalent to losing his advantage.
They had lured Ling Xiao here precisely because there was no one here. Feng Qingyan had gone to Feng Yinshan.
However, if the battle here was too intense, someone would definitely be alarmed.
Ling Xiao did not chase after him.
It was not because he wanted to let the assassin go, but because he had a better plan.
"Cold Plum, stop chasing."
Outside, Ling Xiao saw a figure pass by quickly and immediately called out to stop.
"Understood, Master."
Cold Plum never asked why, because she knew that Ling Xiao must have his reasons for doing so.
The killer looked behind him and saw that no one was chasing him. He immediately relaxed his vigilance, but he didn't notice that there was a strange inscription flashing on his back.
After escaping from Qingxu College, they arrived at the forest outside. Someone was there to pick them up immediately.
"What's the situation? It didn't work again? "
There were four people in total. Two of them stood further away, while the other two were standing right next to the killer.
"This won't do. That Ling Xiao is too cunning. He discovered us before we even made a move. That guy must have some ability that allows him to see through other people's cultivation."
The assassin shook his head and said helplessly.
"Wait, what's that on your back?"
Finally, someone realized that something was wrong.
However, at that moment, the assassin's body exploded.
The two people closest to the assassin were killed on the spot.
Although the other two people were further away, one of them had a broken leg, and the other was blinded in one eye.
Everyone's black scarves were blown up, revealing their true faces.
The two people who died were Jia Tianfeng's henchmen.
The one who had a broken leg was Jia Tianfeng himself.
The one who was blinded in one eye was Kong Ming.
These two people wanted to assassinate Ling Xiao, but they didn't even touch Ling Xiao's hair. Instead, they were set up by Ling Xiao.
"Quick! Let's go! "
Jia Tianfeng was in great pain because of his broken leg, but he still thought of a terrible thing. Since Ling Xiao had set them up, he would definitely come after them. If they didn't leave now, they would be dead.
Although these two people were injured, they were experts in the Grotto-Heaven Realm, so they quickly fled the scene.
"Master, is it okay to let them go?"
After Jia Tianfeng and Kong Ming left, Cold Plum asked in confusion.
"Jia Tianfeng and Kong Ming are just two small fish. There should be a big fish behind them. This is called casting a long line to catch a big fish. I can kill those two small fish whenever I want. Today, I'll treat it as teaching them a lesson."
Ling Xiao smiled as he looked at the three corpses that had been blown to smithereens on the ground. His gaze turned cold.
To be able to bribe two such powerful assassins to deal with him, the person behind them was definitely not an ordinary person.
Although Phoenix Cry Immeasurable was the most suspicious.
But he needed an accurate answer.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be happy if he let the person who really wanted to kill him escape.
On the way back to the academy, Ling Xiao met the Moon Lady, who was waiting for him on the way.
"You met another assassin? Do you want me to help you destroy the Five Poison Hall? "
The Moon Lady said coldly.
She was really a little angry.
The enemy had repeatedly tried to take Ling Xiao's life, which made the Moon Lady extremely angry.
She was by Ling Xiao's side, but the other party was so unscrupulous. They simply didn't take her seriously.
Did they really think that she wouldn't dare to do anything?
"I won't go so far as to destroy the Five Poison Hall. Besides, we can't find the whereabouts of the Five Poison Hall. However, I've already confirmed the location of the Divine Phoenix Branch. If Sister Moon Lady really wants to vent your anger, you can help me destroy it."
There was a limit to Ling Xiao's patience.
He didn't find trouble with the Five Poison Hall Branch, but the other party came to find trouble with him more than once.
Did they really think that he wouldn't dare to go against the Dark God Palace?
"Okay, I'll go later."
The Moon Lady said.
"Don't you want to go at night?"
Ling Xiao asked curiously.
"Doing such things during the day can cause a bigger sensation. If you want to do it secretly at night, you have to do it openly."
The Moon Lady smiled.
"Well, Sister Moon Lady, you're so considerate. However, Sister Moon Lady, you should try to treat yourself better in the future. And Cold Plum, you too. I know you care about me, but you have to think about yourself."
Ling Xiao suddenly said.
"Master, do you hate me? Do you find me annoying? "
Cold Plum immediately panicked.
Although the Moon Lady didn't say anything, she was obviously a little stunned.
"I say, what are you thinking? The two of you are now the closest and most trusted people to me. How can I hate or be annoyed by you? It's just that the enemies I have to face are getting stronger and stronger. You can't not rest. Only when you rest well can you fight side by side with me better! "
Ling Xiao hurriedly explained, "Now, I need your protection to develop well. However, it'll be soon. After I reach the Yin-Yang Realm, I'll protect you well!"
If Ling Xiao said this in the past, the Moon Lady and Cold Plum would probably be a little skeptical. After all, the Ling Xiao of the past couldn't even break through to the Heaven Realm.
But it was different now. In just over two years, Ling Xiao had broken through from the Martial Vein Realm to the Transcendent Realm, Heaven Realm, and Grotto-Heaven Realm!
Above the Grotto-Heaven Realm was the Yin-Yang Realm!
Although for many people, this was a distance that they might not be able to cross even if they worked hard for a lifetime.
But for Ling Xiao, it was nothing.
