"Stop!"
Ling Tianxiong shouted.
In this short period of time, seven or eight of the servants he had brought with him had already died. These were all his most trusted henchmen.
"Brat, what did you do?"
Ling Tianxiong roared.
"It's unfortunate, Ling Tianxiong. Before I reincarnated, I was an expert in arrays. I just set up a few arrays."
Ling Xiao said calmly.
"Arrays!"
Ling Tianxiong frowned, "What kind of powerful arrays can you set up?"
He didn't seem to believe in heresy. He jumped off his horse and walked towards Ling Tie's tomb.
However, when he was four or five steps away from the tomb, his expression changed.
Perhaps it was because his cultivation was higher than the servants, he could feel that his inner strength was being sucked away by something. It was very uncomfortable.
"Poison!"
Ling Tianxiong quickly retreated and tried to expel the poison.
"That's not a simple poison. It's a plague. Ling Tianxiong, take your time. I'll go back first."
Ling Xiao smiled coldly. These people had no ability to break the array anyway. It didn't matter if he was there or not.
Using his Light Body Technique, he scuttled into the dense forest and disappeared in an instant.
He could use the Light Flash Godly Technique in a place with no one around. It was much faster than a carriage.
It was still early when he returned to his residence.
He didn't stay in the Ling Residence. Firstly, he didn't have the right. After all, Ling Tie was just a useless foster son. The old man of the Ling Family had left him to fend for himself.
Secondly, they didn't want to trouble him.
Anyway, Ling Xiao could make money from alchemy. He didn't have to worry about not being able to buy a house.
Back in the house, Ling Xiao laid on his bed and looked at the ceiling. He was thinking about his future plans.
If he wanted to recover his cultivation to the Rebirth Realm, he needed more resources.
Although he looked down on the Ling Family now, the Ling Family's resources were really strong in Yuhua Town.
The Ling Clan had to be under his control. Only then would he be able to cultivate faster and avenge his father better.
"Who's there?"
As he was thinking about these things, light footsteps came from outside the door. Ling Xiao looked at the window immediately.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Two rays of cold light shot in from the window.
Ling Xiao's figure flashed, and easily knocked away the two cold lights. At the same time, he pounced forward.
Outside the door, two black shadows pounced at him, holding sharp blades in their hands.
"Your cultivation is not bad, but it's a pity that you're still too inexperienced to kill me!"
These two assassins were both Celestial Realm martial artists who had reached around the sixth level of the Celestial Realm.
But so what? Ling Xiao was a first revolution Heaven Tier martial artist. He was much stronger than them.
Without using any weapons, Ling Xiao threw out a punch. The power of the Royal Heaven Queen of Earth burst forth from his fist and collided with one of the sharp blades, deflecting the blade back.
"Puchi!"
One of the men in black was stabbed to death on the spot.
When the other person saw that the situation was not good, he turned around and ran.
But how could Ling Xiao give him the chance to escape?
The darkness of the night was most suitable for Shadow Children to move about.
Since it was night time, it wouldn't hurt to reveal a little bit of Shadow Profound Meaning.
The cold Shadow Children stretched out their claws from the darkness and imprisoned the man on the ground.
"Speak! Who sent you here? "
Ling Xiao stepped on the man's body and asked coldly.
"Hahaha, I won't tell you. If you kill us today, there will be stronger people coming to deal with you tomorrow. You're dead meat!"
The assassin's character was tough enough. After saying this, he crushed the poison sac in his teeth and died instantly.
"I wonder if these people killed my father, Ling Tie. Why are they looking for me?"
Ling Xiao let go of his foot and waved his hand. The pitch-black flames burned the two corpses clean.
"Looks like I can't continue to stay here. This assassin is right. Maybe I can deal with Celestial Realm martial artists, but once I encounter Grotto-Heaven Realm martial artists, it'll be troublesome."
Ling Xiao returned to his room and immediately packed his things, preparing to return to the Ling Family.
Although his father was dead, he was still a member of the Ling Family. As long as he showed a certain level of talent, he believed that the upper echelons of the Ling Family would give him a chance to live there.
Speaking of which, wasn't the reason why Grandfather Ling took in his father, Ling Tie, back then because of Ling Tie's talent?
In Ling Xiao's opinion, the assassins today couldn't have been done by the Ling Family.
If the Ling Family wanted to kill him, they didn't have to be so sneaky. Their shamelessness was above board.
If Ling Tianxiong or Ling Baiye wanted to kill him, they would have done so directly in the Ling Family. Spending so much effort to hire assassins was a complete waste of money.
Moreover, he had seen the two assassins. They were unfamiliar faces. At least, he had never seen them in the Ling Family.
Although this was just a guess, Ling Xiao believed that the two assassins came from outside.
His father's death was probably closely related to these people.
"Just you wait. I'll find you sooner or later!"
Looking at the house that he had lived in for a few months, Ling Xiao was a little reluctant to leave. Although he lived outside with his father and didn't have anyone to take care of him, it was still good that he didn't have to suffer.
After returning to the Ling Family, there would probably be a lot of trouble.
However, Ling Xiao had nothing to fear. He had even conquered the Sky Dragon Continent, the Divine Phoenix Continent, and the White Tiger Continent. How could he shrink back from a mere Yuhua Town's Ling Family?
Turning around, Ling Xiao hurriedly left and arrived at the Ling Family.
The guards had been changed, and their attitude towards him was obviously not as arrogant as before.
A person's status and face were fought for with strength.
Even the servants thought so in their hearts.
He directly entered the Ling Family's courtyard and walked towards Grandfather Ling's central courtyard.
The Ling Family's courtyard was divided into five courtyards: East, West, North, South, and Central. It was similar to the Black Tortoise Continent.
The central courtyard was where the Ling Family's patriarch, Grandfather Ling, lived.
Ling Xiao had been here before, so he was familiar with the place.
Just as he was about to step into Grandfather Ling's residence, he was stopped once again.
However, this time, an old voice came from inside the house.
"Let him in."
That voice belonged to Ling Family's patriarch, Ling Yuhua.
Ling Xiao stepped into the house and realized that not only was Ling Yuhua there, but also Ling Tianxiong, who was poisoned by the plague.
He sneered, looked at Ling Yuhua and said, "Grandfather, give me a house."
"A house?"
"That's right. I want to live in a place similar to Ling Baiye's so that I can focus on my cultivation."
Ling Xiao went straight to the point.
"You think you can compare to Baiye?"
Ling Tianxiong mocked.
"You should worry about your plague poison. It's not easy to cure."
Ling Xiao looked coldly at Ling Tianxiong, then looked at Ling Yuhua and said, "Even that trash Ling Baiye can have his own courtyard. I'm ten times stronger than him. Why can't I have mine?"
