"I'll tell you, but don't tell anyone."
Cheng Feiying said in a low voice.
"Don't worry. I, Ling Xiao, am a tight-lipped person. How could I leak this information for no reason?"
Ling Xiao shook his head.
"Actually, I heard from my grandfather that the Eight Immortals Mountain has been searching for Ling Yan's whereabouts since he entered the Samsara cycle.
Later, they found a youth with the same name in Ascension Town.
Although they couldn't be completely sure, the sect would rather kill ten thousand innocents than let one go. They secretly captured that youth and locked him up on the fifth floor of the Ghost Prison, which is also known as the 'Abominable Cage'.
The strongest prisoners and terrifying Yao beasts are locked up there. Even among the disciples of the Eight Immortals Mountain, very few dare to enter. "
Cheng Feiying replied.
Hearing this, Ling Xiao couldn't help but reveal a hint of dissatisfaction.
This made Cheng Feiying suddenly recall Ling Xiao's identity.
She couldn't help but feel regret. "Oh no, I forgot that you're also a member of the Ling Clan of Ascension Town. How could you not know Ling Yan?"
"Don't worry, I'm not that stupid. With my current strength, entering the Abominable Cage is tantamount to suicide."
Ling Xiao smiled faintly. "Although I'm an impulsive person, I'm not stupid. This matter naturally needs to be considered at length."
He wasn't trying to placate Cheng Feiying, but was speaking the truth.
With his current strength, let alone the Abominable Cage, he couldn't even pass the third or fourth floor of the Ghost Prison.
There was no way he could save Ling Yan.
However, Ling Yan had only been imprisoned, not killed. This meant that some people of the Eight Immortals Mountain wanted to obtain some secret from him.
As long as they couldn't obtain it, Ling Yan wouldn't die.
He still had time!
In the Black Tortoise Continent, Ling Xiao didn't have many friends. Ling Yan was definitely one of them.
No matter what, he couldn't let his good brother suffer in the fifth floor of the Ghost Prison for too long.
"If an ant wants to overturn the heavens, it first needs to become stronger."
Ling Xiao smiled.
Although he was worried, he would never put on a frown.
He also wouldn't let his heavy heart affect his cultivation.
In any case, doing that would not help in rescuing Ling Yan, so he might as well improve his strength.
"According to the layout of the second floor of the Ghost Prison, the prisoners and Demonic Beasts we encounter from here onwards will be extremely dangerous for us. So, everyone, stay alert and protect yourselves!
I'm not as strong as you. If you really encounter danger, I won't be able to help you! "
After walking for about ten minutes, Cheng Feiying suddenly stopped. She turned around and said to the disciples of the Orange Immortal Mountain.
A solemn and serious expression appeared on everyone's face.
The second floor of the Ghost Prison was still very dangerous for martial artists of the second floor of Hell. They could not afford to be careless.
"Miss Fei Ying, if something happens, we won't have the time to protect that Ling Xiao. Don't blame us for that."
Suddenly, a rather handsome young man with a red mole between his eyebrows spoke up.
When Ling Xiao heard this, he found it laughable.
With this kid's strength, he wanted to protect him?
"Don't you understand the concept of unity? If you don't want to help him, he won't help you when you encounter danger later. "
Cheng Feiying was so angry that she had a headache. These people were too arrogant. They obviously weren't that strong, but they were all looking up to the sky.
"No need!"
Many people on the other side shouted.
Ling Xiao smiled and looked at Cheng Feiying. "Miss Fei Ying, you heard them. They said there's no need. If I don't help later, you can't blame me."
He wasn't the kind of person who would only repay evil with good.
Others hated and detested him so much, so why should he ask for a rebuff? He just needed to protect Cheng Feiying later.
"Why would I blame you? Protect yourself later. This place is very dangerous for all of us. Don't worry, I won't let you face danger alone. Just stay by my side."
Cheng Feiying didn't think that she was stronger than Ling Xiao. She just thought that among these people, she was the only one who would help Ling Xiao.
Therefore, Ling Xiao was naturally the safest to stay with her.
"By the way, I haven't asked you what mission you're going to carry out."
Ling Xiao couldn't be bothered with other people's gazes. The only reason he was still walking with these people was because of Cheng Feiying.
This girl was affectionate and righteous. He couldn't be heartless.
Besides, following Cheng Feiying this time, he had also received news about Ling Yan. This was considered a big gain.
"Miss Fei Ying, you can't tell that guy. He must be thinking about our mission."
"That's right. Miss Fei Ying, don't be fooled by this kid. He's just a little more handsome."
"Shut up, all of you. You can't control who I tell, and you have no right to control!"
Cheng Feiying had been able to patiently explain to these people before, but now, she couldn't even be bothered to explain. She just shouted back at them.
These people were simply asking for a beating. They were too hateful.
"Ling Xiao, ignore them. They've been sitting at the bottom of a well for too long. They don't know how fast the outside world is developing.
Also, you might not know this, but the sect's publicity was a little problematic after the Specter Sect incident. "
Cheng Feiying sighed and said, "The sect said that they've been eyeing the Specter Sect for a long time. They've already sent Chen Fengxiao and Sha Diao. They're just one step away from completing the mission.
But you're eager to make a contribution. Not only did you alert the enemy, but you also ruined the sect's plan and caused many people to be killed by the blood-sucking array. "
"Shameless!"
Hearing this, Ling Xiao felt that the Eight Immortal Mountain was shameless to the extreme.
"There's nothing we can do. The current sect master is just a puppet of the eight great families. He can't compare to the old Ling Yan."
Cheng Feiying sighed.
"No wonder when I returned to the sect today, those people looked at me with disdain. So that's what happened."
Ling Xiao was really disappointed in the Eight Immortal Mountain.
He knew that the Eight Immortal Mountain was doing this to force him to leave so that they could deal with him.
But he refused to leave.
This was the sect that Ling Yan had once been in. Moreover, it had once strengthened the Eight Immortal Mountain to an extremely high level.
Even if he wanted to leave, he would have to return the sect to Ling Yan.
"It's quite shameless. Forget it, let's not talk about those unhappy things. You asked us what our mission was. It's actually very simple. We came to the second floor of the Ghost Prison to kill an Ironback Thorn Beast. That guy's strength has reached the early stage of the first star second floor of hell.
Most importantly, its defense is very terrifying.
Even martial artists of the same cultivation level would be helpless against it.
I want to forge a weapon and need the shell of this Ironback Thorn Beast. "
Cheng Feiying changed the topic and said, "Under normal circumstances, we should be able to kill it if we work together. But I'm afraid of accidents. After all, this is the Ghost Prison.
