"Your Majesty, he's talking nonsense!" Qin Huo shouted. "We were just here to give you a report, but they didn't give us a chance to explain. They pierced our shoulder blades and crippled our cultivation bases!"
When Qin Huo saw Ling Xiao, a trace of vitality finally appeared on his despairing and sorrowful face.
WHACK!
The whip lashed across Qin Huo's face. It was the third stage Lifeseizing general.
Blood trickled down his face.
Even if Qin Huo's cultivation base hadn't been crippled, it would have been difficult for him to defend himself. Now that his cultivation base had been crippled, there was no way he could defend himself.
The wound on his face was horrifying and glaring.
"Who gave you permission to speak, you traitor?"
The general said coldly. Then he looked at Ling Xiao and said, "We suspect you of colluding with the enemy and trying to start a rebellion. Get out of the way, or we'll arrest you too!"
"Are you ready?"
Ling Xiao asked, suddenly calm. It was almost as if he didn't feel any anger at all.
But this sudden calmness made Fan Ruohai, who was standing beside him, feel a kind of terror and chill.
Fan Ruohai knew that when a person's anger reached its limit, they would become strangely calm.
"Ready for what? Aaaaaiiiieee! "
Before the general could finish speaking, he let out a bloodcurdling scream.
"My arm! My arm! "
He used his right hand to whip Qin Huo, and as a result, Ling Xiao directly crippled his right hand.
"Kill him! Kill him! Don't let this traitor escape Heavensea City! "
The general clutched at his wound, terrified and enraged.
All of a sudden, hundreds of experts flew out from the alleyway, all of them Lifeseizers.
They wore the battle robes of the Crocodile God, and were clearly the Crocodile Devil Guard.
"Brother Ling, get out of here! It's a trap!"
Fan Ruohai shouted.
He had no idea what had happened to Ling Xiao in the Nine Heavens Palace, nor did he know how high Ling Xiao's cultivation base had risen.
Seeing the Crocodile Devil Guard lying in ambush, Fan Ruohai knew that the Heavensea King was determined to kill Ling Xiao.
Therefore, he shouted anxiously.
"Young Master Fan, today's matter has nothing to do with your Fan family. Step down. Since the Tianhai Empire wants to destroy our nation, I will fulfill their wish!"
Ling Xiao's voice was bone-chilling, as if it had been tempered countless times in a cold purgatory.
"Your Majesty is valiant!"
However, the martial artists of the Celestial Empire saw hope.
None of them had ever imagined that their emperor of heaven would be able to cripple a third stage Lifeseizer so easily.
After all, they had watched the live broadcast of the White Tiger Meet. Ling Xiao had fought against the second stage Lifeseizer Heavenly Ocean Tyranny, and had even gone all out.
But today, they saw hope.
Their Heavenly Emperor was even more powerful than they had imagined.
"Kill the traitors and defend the glory of the White Tiger Continent!"
On both sides of the street, the commoners of the Heavenly Sea City were also shouting loudly. They even pounced towards the prisoner carriage, wanting to execute the people of the Heavenly Imperial Empire on the spot.
Ling Xiao's cold eyes revealed a demonic killing intent.
"Anyone who dares to touch the warriors of the Heavenly Imperial Empire will die!"
He didn't want to attack the commoners, because he had his own principles.
But if they really did hurt his people, he would turn into a fiend-devil and kill them all.
He wouldn't show any mercy.
However, no one listened to him. Their thinking was simple. If they killed Ling Xiao, the White Tiger Meet's first place would go to their Crown Prince, Heavenly Ocean Tyranny.
They even made Fan Ruohai their target.
They believed that Fan Ruohai was in cahoots with Ling Xiao.
"Crazy! They've all been brainwashed by that Tianhai Sovereign. "
Fan Ruohai frowned.
From the look of it, the imperial family of the Heavenly Sea Empire wanted to take advantage of the hatred of Ling Xiao to uproot the Fan Clan.
"Brother Fan, don't worry about me. Go back and see what's going on with the Fan Clan."
Ling Xiao glanced at Fan Ruohai.
"My apologies."
Fan Ruohai was burning with anxiety. If the Heavenly Sea Empire mobilized these crazed commoners to deal with the Fan Clan, then the Fan Clan would truly be consigned to eternal damnation.
They would either have to escape from the Heavenly Sea Empire, or they would have to slaughter the commoners.
Regardless of which choice it was, they would never be able to establish themselves in the Heavenly Sea Empire.
This move was truly too vicious.
Too vicious. Although Fan Ruohai had long since expected that the other side wouldn't take the normal path, he hadn't expected them to be so vicious.
After Fan Ruohai left, Ling Xiao took advantage of the situation to save Qin Huo and the other five Heavenly Imperial soldiers.
These people had come to find him. He absolutely couldn't let them die in the enemy country, and for no reason at that.
Golden Crow — Transit of the Sun!
Ling Xiao coldly watched all of this. He pointed with his right hand, and a soaring sword energy broke through the air. The sword energy soared into the air, transforming into a giant golden crow that charged towards the crowd.
Miserable screams immediately rose and fell.
His way of thinking was different from Fan Ruohai's. Whoever wanted to kill him, he would kill them. He had never thought of being merciful.
When facing an enemy, being merciful would only make one die faster.
Doomsday!
It truly was a scene of doomsday.
As Ling Xiao's cultivation increased, the might of the Golden Crow Ascending the Sun became extremely terrifying.
When he released it, even Ling Xiao himself was frightened.
The entire street was turned into charcoal. Apart from a few of his own people, not a single person was left alive.
This included the general whose arm had been cut off. Ling Xiao didn't even have time to ask what that fellow's name was before he was completely melted by the terrifying heat.
"Let's go!"
Ling Xiao was stunned for a moment, then he fled in the direction of the Fan Estate.
The Fan Estate was a power that could not be ignored. If he could unite them, then the Heavenly Empire would have the support of a powerful clan when it unified the White Tiger Continent in the future.
One mustn't forget that the Fan Estate's influence wasn't limited to the Heavenly Sea Empire. They had businesses in the Four Great Empires and the Zhengyi School's sphere of influence.
This was a true business empire.
By the time Ling Xiao arrived at the Fan Estate, it had already become a sea of fire.
Everything had been destroyed, and Fan Ruohai was holding a corpse in his hands, howling in pain.
Everyone who had been with him was dead, including his younger brother, Fan Ruolin.
There had been an ambush, and the corpse he held in his arms was none other than his younger brother's.
In the blink of an eye, no one had any time to react.
No matter how strong Fan Ruohai was, there was no way he could save his younger brother.
His eyes were bloodshot, and he pulsed with the terrifying power of a Lifeseizer. He wanted to slaughter everyone in the imperial house of the Heavenly Sea Empire.
Kill them all!
"Eighteenth level Lifeseizer! Incredible. This bastard was so close to reaching the Rebirth level! "
Fan Ruohai had always been mysterious and enigmatic. In the past, Ling Xiao had assumed that he was only a bit stronger than Heavenly Sea Tyranny. After all, he was only in his early thirties.
But now that his cultivation base was so close, Ling Xiao's Taiji Eye could see Fan Ruohai's true cultivation base.
An eighteenth level Lifeseizer, even higher than Yang Qi's own cultivation base.
This guy had hidden himself quite well.
