"Did I hear wrongly? You're just a pinnacle martial artist in One-Line-Sky. Who gave you the confidence to evaluate my Big Brother Ximen like that?"
Cai Weiwei was very displeased. This brat called Ling Xiao was truly overestimating his own capabilities.
"I've said it before. They're just shallow sea lizards. Why are you so afraid? Just kill them!"
Ximen Bo said proudly as he sheathed his sword.
"Although this person's actions are displeasing, his strength is not to be underestimated."
"That's right. He fought two shallow sea lizards head-on with a pinnacle Four Symbols cultivation base and defeated them so easily. I'm afraid it's very difficult for others of the same cultivation base to do so."
"There are too many factors that affect combat strength at the same cultivation base, including the soul, the strength of the body, the level of martial arts, and so on. This Ximen Bo is definitely one of the best."
Although most of the crowd was displeased with Ximen Bo's provocation of the shallow sea lizards, they all praised Ximen Bo's strength.
Powerhouses were powerhouses. Wherever they went, they would receive the respect of others.
There were many pretty girls in the crowd. They all looked at Ximen Bo with infatuation, as if they wished that this man was their boyfriend.
"Since this brother has already cleaned up the shallow sea lizards, let's continue on our journey."
The first mate only glanced at Ximen Bo indifferently, and the corners of his mouth seemed to curl up into a sneer. However, it was fleeting and no one noticed.
The team continued on, and the tense atmosphere in the crowd seemed to have been washed away by the previous battle.
Ximen Bo became the subject of everyone's discussion. He was simply like a hero.
He was only in his thirties, but his cultivation base and strength were at the top of this group. Naturally, he would receive the attention of countless people.
Ximen Bo looked at Ling Xiao and Cold Plum, as if he wanted to find an expression of admiration on their faces.
However, he was disappointed.
Although Ling Xiao and Cold Plum were talking, the topic of their discussion seemed to have nothing to do with him. Moreover, the two of them were very close to each other, as if they were discussing something private.
This made him even more unhappy.
He couldn't understand why Cold Plum would take a fancy to Ling Xiao when his performance was so dazzling.
Originally, he had planned to use Ling Xiao to get closer to Cold Plum, but now he suddenly realized that Ling Xiao was definitely a problem between him and Cold Plum.
If he didn't get rid of Ling Xiao, he wouldn't have the chance to be alone with Cold Plum.
"Everyone, be careful!"
After walking for a while, they were about to reach their destination. Suddenly, a bright light appeared in front of them.
At first, everyone thought that it was a light, but when they heard the first mate's shout, they realized that it was the Fear Leech.
The difference between Fear Leeches and normal leeches was that they were larger in size. Each of them was the size of an adult mouse, and their ability to suck blood was terrifying.
The most terrifying thing was that it could almost completely penetrate a Heaven Realm martial artist's protective Heaven Elemental Energy in an instant, and then enter the martial artist's body, sucking the martial artist's internal energy and blood dry.
Of course, if it were just one or two Fear Leeches, it wouldn't pose too much of a threat.
The key was that it wasn't just one or two, but a group of thousands, densely packed with a strange metallic luster.
This scale was simply a disaster for martial artists below Four Symbols Heaven Realm cultivation.
Even Four Symbols Heaven Realm martial artists might die tragically on the spot.
"Chance!"
Ximen Bo saw these Fear Leeches and couldn't help but be surprised.
With his strength, he was still fearful of this group of Fear Leeches, let alone Ling Xiao who was only a One-Line-Heaven martial artist.
Although the Fear Leeches' bodies were very soft and could be crushed easily, this kind of creature had a great characteristic, and that was that it was very difficult to kill.
As long as there was still a part of its body, it would quickly split into many smaller Fear Leeches, which were equally terrifying.
Hence, under normal circumstances, Heaven Realm martial artists would try their best to avoid this kind of creature.
However, Ximen Bo took the initiative to rush forward and blocked in front of Cold Plum. He said righteously, "Cold Plum, I'm here. You don't have to worry."
The leading first mate anxiously took out an item from his storage ring and threw it out.
It seemed to be a piece of refining array stone. Ling Xiao was very familiar with this kind of thing.
After the refining array stone was thrown out, it formed a strange whirlpool.
Most of the Fear Leeches were directly sucked into this whirlpool.
However, there were still too many Fear Leeches. There were still many that bypassed the whirlpool and charged towards the crowd.
"Ah!"
In just a blink of an eye, dozens of the hundreds of martial artists died.
These dead martial artists' bodies were shriveled up like raisins that were dried under the sun.
Ximen Bo blocked in front of Cold Plum. When the Fear Leeches came over, he suddenly dodged and grabbed at Cold Plum, preparing to escape with Cold Plum.
He wanted to let the large number of Fear Leeches kill Ling Xiao.
"Hurry up and leave. I can't block it anymore!"
Luckily, he didn't forget to put on an act at this time. He pretended to be in a difficult position. "Brother Ling, you should run too."
However, the sneer at the corner of his mouth completely betrayed him.
This guy really couldn't wait for Ling Xiao to die. That was why he thought of such a vicious method.
However, what made him furious was …
Cold Plum didn't leave. She would rather die with Ling Xiao than live an ignoble life.
Behind her, the beautiful plum blossom bloomed and turned into countless petals that shot out. A large number of Fear Leeches fell under the attack of the plum blossom.
Moreover, once attacked by the petals, the Fear Leeches would instantly rot and die. There was no way for them to regenerate.
Seeing this, Ximen Bo was both furious and surprised.
He was furious that Cold Plum was already in such a state and still wanted to die with Ling Xiao.
He was surprised that Cold Plum's strength was really more powerful than he imagined.
However, this was nothing.
With Cold Plum's strength, it was better if she didn't die.
It was fine as long as Ling Xiao died.
It was a pity that when he looked at Ling Xiao, his jaw almost dropped from his mouth.
Ling Xiao stood there and didn't move at all. His body actually emitted a strange red sun light. Any Fear Leeches that touched this light would be instantly roasted and turned into ashes.
In just a short moment, hundreds of Fear Leeches had died under the net.
It was like moths flying into a flame, seeking their own destruction.
"Damn it, I really underestimated this kid!"
Ximen Bo's vicious plan that he made while risking being hated by Cold Plum actually failed instantly. This made him gnash his teeth in hatred.
"Brother Ximen, that Ling Xiao seems to be more powerful than we imagined. The light on his body is strange."
Cai Weiwei said nervously.
"I'm not blind."
Ximen Bo said coldly, "However, it's fine. It's just some strange tricks. In terms of cultivation, there's a huge difference between us. He's not my match at all. With his defense, although he can block the Fear Leeches, in front of me, he can't even withstand a single blow! "
