"Since you want to die, I'll grant you your wish!"
Ling Xiao roared furiously, charging over bare-handed.
Meanwhile, Ling Yun brandished a sword, following closely behind Ling Xiao.
As for Ye Xuan, since he had already joined the Heavenly Thunder Hall, he naturally had to help. As his cultivation base was lower than Ling Xiao's group, he stealthily moved to the side, causing them to think that he was trying to escape.
The two assassins did not pay much attention to him as they directly fought one-on-one with Ling Xiao and Ling Yun.
"Eye of Glory!"
"Left Azure Dragon Stretching Eight Stances!"
Now, Ye Xuan suddenly attacked.
Numerous golden heavenly dragons appeared, lunging towards the long-haired man currently battling Ling Yun.
"What?"
The long-haired man was shocked as he turned to discover several golden heavenly dragons attacking him.
Only now did he realise that he had underestimated Ye Xuan.
"Brat, you're a hindrance. Die!"
The long-haired man stabbed out with his sword, a cold black streak of light piercing through the air, piercing through the golden heavenly dragons before shooting towards Ye Xuan.
"Watch out!"
Ling Yun hurriedly roared, but it was still too late.
Ye Xuan's shoulder was pierced through once more, but it healed at a visible rate the next moment.
"You dare injure me? Die!"
Ye Xuan could not even be bothered to evade now as he roared, finding his seventh golden heavenly dragon.
Left Azure Dragon Stretching Eight Stances, Seventh Stance, Divine Dragon Swings Its Tail!
A massive golden dragon tail whipped towards the long-haired man viciously. The long-haired man's expression darkened as he evaded the attack with his movement technique. However, the next moment, he saw Ling Yun condense a Heavenly Thunder Battle Halberd.
"Not good!"
The long-haired man's expression changed drastically as he hurriedly retreated.
The power of this Heavenly Thunder Battle Halberd was not something he could withstand.
However, Ling Yun did not throw the Heavenly Thunder Battle Halberd in her hand, instead stabbing it into the ground viciously.
"Zi zi!"
Heavenly thunder shot towards the long-haired man like a slithering snake. Unable to evade in time, his right leg was struck, instantly turning into charcoal.
His right leg was crippled!
"Die!"
Ye Xuan made use of this opportunity to hurriedly execute the final stance of the Left Azure Dragon Stretching Eight Stances, Leaderless Dragons!
The eight golden heavenly dragons all pounced toward the long-haired man.
"Rip!" "Rip!" "Rip!"
The long-haired man was surrounded. Then, he was torn apart by the eight golden heavenly dragons and died.
"Not good, let's go!"
On the other side, the thin and weak man who was fighting Ling Xiao immediately turned around and ran when he saw his companion die.
"It's too late to run now!"
Ling Xiao used his Genuine Qi and All Creations Strength to form a Heavenly Thunder Halberd. He threw it at the thin man's back.
"Swish!"
The Heavenly Thunder Halberd pierced through the air.
The thin man turned his head and quickly dodged the Heavenly Thunder Battle Halberd.
However, when the Heavenly Thunder Battle Halberd brushed past the thin man's body …
"Heavenly Thunder Explosion!"
Ling Xiao formed a hand seal, and in the next moment, the Heavenly Thunder Combat Halberd exploded.
Lightning flashed, and with a boom, the thin man was electrocuted into a charred corpse.
In the distance, Ye Xuan could not help but gulp.
"So the Heavenly Thunder Combat Halberd can be used like this. I've learned a lot."
He thought to himself. At the same time, he also secretly memorized these two uses.
The Heavenly Thunder Combat Halberd was a mid-level Ethereal Opening Mystic Ability. To Ling Xiao and Ling Yun, who were both at the second level of the Ethereal Opening Realm, it was extremely taxing. Even at their peak, they could only use it twice.
As for Ye Xuan, using it once would probably deplete his Genuine Qi. Therefore, he could only use it as a trump card. He could not use it like the Left Azure Dragon's Eight Stances.
Ling Xiao and Ling Yun quickly walked over and took off the two assassins' Yin and Yang Rings.
"Brother, look at this."
Ling Yun took out two portraits of them from the Yin and Yang Ring.
At the same time, the two assassins' mission books were also in the Yin and Yang Ring.
"Capture the Heavenly Thunder Hall's core disciples, Ling Xiao and Ling Yun. They must survive. Those who complete the mission will be rewarded with twenty thousand Inner Demon Pills?"
After Ling Xiao read it out loud, his body shook violently.
Twenty thousand Inner Demon Pills. This was really a huge reward!
Twenty thousand Inner Demon Pills could already create a few third level Manifestation Realm experts. They were only two second level Manifestation Realm experts. Why was there such a high price?
"Who exactly wants to capture us?"
Ling Yun asked, very confused.
"With such a high price, I'm afraid even third level Netherpassage experts would be moved, or even fourth level Netherpassage experts. We must return as soon as possible and have Father send people to investigate."
Ling Xiao said with a gloomy expression.
They still could not understand what kind of person they had provoked.
However, the most urgent matter at hand was to avoid these Underworld assassins and return to the Heavenly Thunder Hall.
Ye Xuan did not think too much about it. He only felt that the one who issued the mission should be someone Ling Xiao had once provoked, or an enemy of the Heavenly Thunder Hall.
Since Ling Xiao and Ling Yun's mission reward was so high, it might attract third level Netherpassage experts. At that time, he would also be able to get a share of it.
However, they had no way of dealing with fourth level Netherpassage experts. Thus, they could only pray that they did not encounter them.
After distributing the rewards, Ye Xuan's trio hurried on their way once more. Now, they dared not run wildly on the ground, instead flying high up in the air.
This way, they could avoid quite a few assassins.
The following journey was out of their expectations. Who knew if it was because of their good luck, or if the assassins had all run off to search elsewhere, but the journey was calm and peaceful. No one came looking for them again, and they successfully returned to the Heavenly Thunder Hall.
The Heavenly Thunder Hall was a massive, solemn and dignified palace, with countless experts within. Before Ye Xuan had even approached, he could already feel several powerful auras, at least third level of the Manifestation stage, or even fourth level.
Ling Xiao and Ling Yun directly brought Ye Xuan into the Heavenly Thunder Hall, explaining some matters of the Heavenly Thunder Hall to Ye Xuan as they did so.
The Heavenly Thunder Hall was dominated by the Ling Family, with all the previous Hall Lords also being members of the Ling Family. However, due to their thousand years of heritage, the Ling Family had quite a few members. Just the Netherpassage experts of the Ling Family numbered in the thousands.
Amongst them, the most powerful of the younger generation was called Ling Su. She was a girl, a year older than Ling Xiao, but had already broken through to the fourth level of the Netherpassage stage, being the number one female genius in the history of the Heavenly Thunder Hall.
Of course, it was only after undergoing the tempering of the heavenly thunder of the Heavenly Thunder Forbidden Land that she had achieved this. It was said that after leaving, she had broken through from the second level of the Netherpassage stage all the way to the fourth level of the Netherpassage stage in a short amount of time.
The optimal age for entering the Heavenly Thunder Forbidden Land was twenty-five. Ling Xiao and Ling Yun just so happened to be twenty-five, while Ye Xuan just so happened to be twenty-five as well.
This time, Ling Xiao had brought Ye Xuan to look for his father, Ling Xiong, to have Ye Xuan become a core disciple of the Heavenly Thunder Hall, and then participate in the competition for a spot in the Heavenly Thunder Forbidden Land.
Ling Xiao's father, Ling Xiong, was an Elder of the Heavenly Thunder Hall at the fourth level of the Netherpassage stage.
