In the sky, three black-clothed martial artists stood there, their faces completely obscured, their voices cold and awe-inspiring.
This sword truly gave Ling Xiao a fright.
This attack was truly terrifying, much stronger than the Sacred Sword of the Wind Demon.
Just who were these black-clothed men?
He was perplexed.
But one thing was certain: these fellows were likely martial artists raised by the Tianhai Empire's imperial family.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have appeared at this time.
"The Demon Crocodile Guard!"
The Sacred Sword of the Wind Demon shivered as he looked at these three, instantly coming to his senses.
He hurriedly put away the Sacred Sword and retreated.
The three black-clothed men nodded. One of them looked at Ling Xiao and said, "Little Demonic Beast Sun is one of the Tianhai Empire's Seven Little Saints. He has a powerful cultivation and is rather talented. I hope you can spare his life."
"And if I don't?"
Ling Xiao knew that these three were very powerful, but he couldn't bow his head.
However, his words gave the other martial art candidates a fright.
The Demon Crocodile Guard was the true trump card of the Tianhai Empire.
Even if they offended the Tianhai Holy Academy, no one dared to offend the Demon Crocodile Guard.
Was Ling Xiao crazy?
"You probably don't know who we are for you to be so rude."
The man continued, "The Tianhai imperial family has a sharp blade and a shield! The Shadow Crocodile Guard is that sharp blade, and we, the Demon Crocodile Guard, are that shield. We are also the imperial family's strongest fighting force. "
"So what?"
Ling Xiao retorted.
"Do you know the consequences of offending us?"
The man coldly asked, his attitude extremely arrogant.
"I, Ling Xiao, came to the Tianhai Empire to participate in the White Tiger Meet, not to offend the Tianhai imperial family. But someone came here to kill me. Do you expect me to let him go?"
Ling Xiao coldly asked.
"Letting you go is giving you face. Otherwise, we would have taken him away. And if we hadn't intervened, you would have already died at the hands of the Sacred Sword of the Wind Demon."
The black-clothed man continued.
"What big words. You can try and see if you can take him away!"
Ling Xiao coldly looked at the three black-clothed men in the sky.
He hated it when people threatened him.
His words caused the three black-clothed men to hesitate.
Actually, the order they received was only to prevent the Sacred Sword of Windfiend from breaking the rules.
This was because anyone who violated the rules would be barred from participating in the White Tiger Meet. This would be a huge loss to the Skysea Empire.
Everyone knew that the royal family could not go back on their word. Otherwise, their foundation would be unstable.
However, the three of them acted on their own accord. They thought that Ling Xiao owed them a favor and wanted Ling Xiao to release Little Devil Beast Sun.
They originally thought that this matter was a matter of course, but unexpectedly, Ling Xiao did not fall for their trick at all.
The three of them were now riding a tiger and had no way to back down. They didn't know what to do.
"Acting on your own, you deserve to be humiliated. Come back!"
Just as the three men in black were in a dilemma and did not know what to do, a thunderous voice came from the direction of the Imperial Palace.
It was about a mile away, but the sound was very loud.
Many people could tell that this voice came from the head of Heavenly Ocean's Four Greats — Heavenly Ocean Tyranny.
The voice was domineering and dignified.
"Understood, Your Highness!"
No matter how humiliated the three of them were, they had to listen to the orders of the Crown Prince. Otherwise, they would not be able to endure that person's temper.
"Sacred Sword of Windfiend, you failed to kill your opponent in one move. Look at you. To be called one of Heavenly Ocean's Four Greats with you is truly a disgrace to this Crown Prince. Go back and think about it. Until the White Tiger Meet, you are not allowed to come out and humiliate yourself."
Next, Heavenly Ocean Tyranny began to reprimand Sacred Sword of Windfiend. He scolded Sacred Sword of Heavenly Ocean's Four Greats like a grandson.
However, Sacred Sword of Windfiend did not dare to say anything.
He only nodded and then looked at Ling Xiao. "Kid, before the White Tiger Meet, it's best if you don't die. At the White Tiger Meet, I will show you my power."
After saying this, he turned and left.
Heavenly Ocean Tyranny's voice did not come again. It was as if what happened next had nothing to do with him.
However, inside the Eastern Palace, Heavenly Ocean Tyranny issued an order. "Investigate. Turn this Ling Xiao upside down. I want all of his information!"
As the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace, Heavenly Ocean Tyranny did not wish for any variables to occur in his future plans.
On the other hand, Ling Xiao's appearance made him a little worried.
In the past, he had supported Phoenix Cry Mountain in the Divine Phoenix Empire. It was almost like a shadow of his. He had originally thought that he could easily take over the Divine Phoenix Continent, but in the end, this Ling Xiao had turned the tables.
He had always been brooding over this.
Thus, he definitely did not want to make the same mistake a second time.
If possible, he would personally kill this Ling Xiao.
After Sacred Sword of Windfiend left, Ling Xiao did not stay. He informed Dan Feng and Liu Lian to help look after the villa, and then went to the market alone.
The geniuses of the Skysea Empire looked at each other, their hearts filled with disgust.
Three of the Four Ferocious Beasts had been injured, and one had been killed. The Seven Little Saints of Heavenly Ocean were now only six.
Even more ridiculous was that Sacred Sword of Wind Fiend, one of the Four Prodigies of Heavenly Ocean, had not been able to kill Ling Xiao. Instead, he had almost been driven mad.
How vexing!
The Heavenly Ocean Empire's geniuses all had their eyes on top of their heads. They did not even spare a glance for the Heavenly Ocean Empire's geniuses and affiliated countries.
However, today's battle had truly caused them to lose face.
Water God coldly glanced at Ling Xiao's departing figure, gritted her teeth, and then followed.
Ling Xiao's performance today had indeed shocked her. However, as the strongest young martial artist of Water God Temple, she bore the burden of Water God Temple's blood debt. Thus, no matter what, she had to kill Ling Xiao.
And she believed that her only chance was now.
If Ling Xiao was given more time, perhaps even she would not be Ling Xiao's opponent.
"Let's go too!"
Chang She and the others did not dare to stay.
Now that Sun Little Demonic Beast had been killed, Sacred Sword of Wind Fiend had left, and the three of them were heavily injured. If Ling Xiao came back, the three of them would be in trouble.
As for Ghost Hand Old Jiu, he had already quietly left.
This person was really good at protecting himself. If he had also taken action before, he would probably have become one of the many injured martial artists.
"Hehe, very interesting. Let's meet again at the White Tiger Meet. Although Ling Xiao and you — oh right, you're called Dan Feng, right? Although the two of you are not bad, the others are still too weak."
Xiao Budian giggled, as if he did not care about what had happened today. He treated everything as if he was watching a show.
In the midst of his laughter, he turned around and soared into the sky. Although he was very small, his movements were very confident.
In an instant, the spectating martial artists in the courtyard had all left.
"See, this is the Heavenly Ocean Empire. We are still far from it."
Dan Feng's expression was very serious.
Although he had defeated Wang Xiang and Zhu Nan, don't forget that he was the number one expert on the Dragon Phoenix List.
This was not something to be proud of.
