With the Golden King's ability, it wouldn't be a problem for him to gather the rest of the herbs.
He knew very well how much Ling Xiao had helped him on this trip to the Land of Exile.
If the Sword King had sided with the Qi Family, the Golden Martial Nation might have been engulfed in the flames of war.
However, he didn't reward Ling Xiao at all.
Being recruited as the Emperor's son-in-law and getting married in three years was a reward, but it was actually a shackle to tie Ling Xiao down.
He knew it very well.
These herbs that were worth five hundred thousand were probably meant to appease Ling Xiao.
Otherwise, it would be troublesome for Ling Xiao to always go against him.
Soon, a circle was drawn in the center of the hall.
Everyone sat around and looked at Ling Xiao and Zhou Tao in the center of the arena.
Zhou Tao's cultivation was also at the early stage of the Divine Body Ninth Level.
However, he was stronger than Qi Fei and any of the three deputy commanders.
After all, the Zhou Family was the third most powerful family in the Golden Martial Nation, second only to the Qi Family.
Ling Xiao almost fell into Commander Zhao's trap because he underestimated the enemy last time.
This time, he could use Qi Fei to test out a new battle strategy.
He knew that someone wanted him or Zhou Tao dead.
No matter who was at a disadvantage in this battle, they would die in the end.
They would die from a sneak attack.
The attacker would definitely be a Divine Soul Realm expert. Neither of them could stop him.
Although he was also very unhappy with Zhou Tao, he didn't like the feeling of being schemed against.
Therefore, he had thought it through today. He would teach Zhou Tao a lesson and prevent him from being killed.
He loved to ruin other people's schemes.
To do this, he had to end the battle quickly and not give the other party a chance to attack.
If Zhou Tao was killed after the battle, even a fool would be able to tell that something was wrong.
Moreover, there were many cunning old foxes sitting here.
What kind of scheme couldn't they see through?
Especially when it was so obvious.
Ling Xiao released his aura as soon as he entered the arena.
The Beast God Constitution, Bloody Rat Demon, Frenzy Saint Rune, Barbaric Bull Saint Rune, and Light Saint Rune were all activated.
He put his left hand in his pocket.
He held the Voidgod Sword in his right hand and pointed it at Zhou Tao.
"What is the meaning of this?"
Zhou Tao also released his Martial Soul, the Eagle God Martial Soul!
This was the Zhou Clan's God Martial Spirit.
At the same time, his power was raised to the maximum.
He knew that Ling Xiao was not weak, so he did not dare to underestimate him.
However, when he saw that Ling Xiao had one hand in his pocket, he immediately felt annoyed. He felt that Ling Xiao was looking down on him.
"Don't worry, I can beat you with one hand."
Ling Xiao's words made Zhou Tao even angrier.
He had been quite calm at first, but now, his true nature was exposed. He was rash and impetuous.
"You dare to look down on me? Prepare to be beaten!"
Zhou Tao roared angrily, and with the cry of an eagle, he pounced towards Ling Xiao from the air, just like an eagle hunting for its prey.
On its hands were claws made of metal, which were incomparably sharp.
There were also three divine dragon patterns on it.
This was almost the standard of a large family.
Even if an ordinary martial artist cultivated to the Ninth Level of the Divine Physique Echelon, it would already be extremely good to have an Emperor Weapon with two divine dragon patterns.
When one reached the Tenth Level of the Divine Physique Echelon, one might be able to get an Emperor Weapon with three divine dragon patterns.
"Gale's Claw!"
Claw shadows flew, and the wind raged.
Claw shadows filled the sky and enveloped Ling Xiao.
He wanted to make Ling Xiao pay the price for underestimating him.
"Giant Shield Saint Pattern!"
Although they were both first-grade saint patterns, the Giant Shield Saint Pattern was only a blue-colored saint pattern. Compared to the gold-colored Golden Light Saint Pattern, its effect was much weaker.
However, it had no problem blocking an attack from a martial artist of similar strength.
"Sky Covering Blood Palm!"
After using the Giant Shield Saint Pattern to block Zhou Tao's attack, Ling Xiao suddenly extended his left hand from his pocket.
He roared angrily and threw out a punch.
"I was prepared for this. You want to sneak up on me? No way!"
Although Zhou Tao was stupid, he had sparred with many smart people, so he had some tricks up his sleeves.
When he saw Ling Xiao's left hand coming towards him, he flapped his wings, and a gust of wind blasted towards him like a blade.
At this moment, Zhou Tao was already in the Eagle God Possession state.
The power of this wing attack was extremely great.
However, the moment the attack blasted out, Zhou Tao was completely dumbfounded.
The wing attack he used was specifically designed to break through the Heaven Covering Blood Palm.
However, Ling Xiao was shouting the Sky Covering Blood Palm, but what he used was —
The power of the void, creating the void!
The gust of wind was swallowed by the void, and the next moment, it blasted down on Zhou Tao's head.
Zhou Tao had just finished his attack, but he still desperately tried to defend himself.
Unfortunately, he only cared about his head.
He blocked the attack above his head, but he forgot that Ling Xiao was still holding the Voidgod Sword in his right hand.
The Voidgod Sword sent Zhou Tao flying out of the circle.
This process seemed long, but in fact, it had only taken less than a second.
The mastermind, who wanted to wait until he saw the situation clearly, was stunned. The battle was over before he could make a move.
"You let me win!"
Ling Xiao put away his sword and slowly landed on the ground, a faint smile on his face.
It was too easy. He had obtained 500,000 supreme-grade spirit stones.
If he had attacked Zhou Tao, he would not have won so easily.
However, a battle was not purely about one's combat strength. Otherwise, there was no need to fight. He could just compare his combat strength.
Sometimes, using one's brain would make it easier to win.
Of course, this was also because Zhou Tao was too stupid. If it were another opponent, such as Qi Tianmei, it would not be easy.
"You cheated!"
Zhou Tao got up from the ground. His mouth and eyes were crooked. It seemed that he was seriously injured.
However, he could not help but roar.
"Come back, don't make a fool of yourself!"
The patriarch of the Zhou family could not stand it anymore. In this battle, Zhou Tao had been schemed against from beginning to end.
He deserved to lose.
Fortunately, this was just a spar. If it was a battle on the battlefield, Zhou Tao would have been killed.
Zhou Tao had no choice but to retreat.
A pair of eyes in the crowd revealed a very dissatisfied look.
However, he could only withdraw his hand that was about to attack.
There was no chance.
"Hahaha, good, you are brave and resourceful. You are indeed worthy of being my son-in-law!"
Golden King was very happy. He felt that the medicinal herbs of 500,000 top-level spirit stones were worth it.
"The rewards will be sent to Martial City within ten days. I will not go back on my words.
Well, this person has been recognized. The spar is over. Let's call it a day.
If there is nothing else, you can leave. "
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Ling Xiao cupped his hands, then looked around and suddenly laughed. "I have one more thing to announce today.
The woman beside me is called Yue Fanghua.
She is my wife!
If anyone thinks that I am not qualified to be the son-in-law, you can challenge me.
Don't worry too much about Your Majesty's words.
As long as you are not bullying the weak, I welcome you to spar with me.
If anyone can defeat me, this engagement will be canceled. "
Ling Xiao was asking for a beating.
Because only by asking for a beating could his cultivation improve faster.
He knew that he could not cancel the engagement like this, but in order to defeat Golden King as soon as possible.
He had to speed up his cultivation.
Otherwise, he might not be able to win three years later.
Golden King was not a weakling, and he was a genius. It was not so easy to surpass him.
