This kind of stalking was very easy to be discovered, especially when the other party's realm was higher than his. Xiao Lingyu couldn't completely hide his tracks. Even if he glanced at the other party intentionally or unintentionally, Jing Fei would be able to detect the abnormality.
Jing Fei didn't seem to mind that someone was following him. He was still strolling around Jade Light Lake. Sometimes he would break a tree branch with leaves, and sometimes he would stare at the lake in a daze. He seemed to be very interested in what he was doing.
Two days passed in a blink of an eye and Jing Fei finally flew towards the east of Jade Light Lake.
Jing Fei's speed wasn't fast and he always had a smile on his face.
After flying tens of thousands of miles away from Jade Light Lake, Jing Fei suddenly stopped and turned around to look at Xiao Lingyu with a smile.
Xiao Lingyu flew for a while and stopped when he was about sixty meters away from Jing Fei.
"You must be from Nan Hua Immortal Sect right?" Jing Fei asked calmly.
"Since you know I'm from Nan Hua Immortal Sect, I'm sure you won't deny killing our disciples?" Xiao Lingyu said calmly.
"Deny? Of course not! I've never denied anything I've done. "Jing Fei sneered.
"Then can you tell me why you want to kill the disciples of my Nan Hua Immortal Sect?" Xiao Lingyu asked expressionlessly.
"If I say he provoked me first and I killed him, I'm sure you won't believe me." Jing Fei answered.
"You only killed one person?" Xiao Lingyu thought for a bit and asked.
"Only one person provoked me, how many more should I kill?"
Jing Fei continued: "I know your Nan Hua Immortal School's disciples have been assassinated recently and you'll definitely suspect me. However, I didn't do it so it's best if you don't waste your energy on me."
"Okay, then let's talk about the Nan Hua Immortal Sect disciple who provoked you. He's only a mid-stage Nine Heaven Xuan Immortal, how did he have the guts to provoke an Immortal Emperor?" Xiao Lingyu went straight to the point.
"What's wrong with his brain? How would I know? He probably doesn't want to live anymore." Jing Fei explained, as if he didn't understand either.
Xiao Lingyu's intuition told him that Jing Fei was a straightforward person, so he shouldn't be lying. However, he wasn't a bystander, but a representative of the Nan Hua Immortal Sect, so he could only say, "You said that he provoked you first, do you have any evidence?"
Jing Fei shook his head: "No."
Xiao Lingyu said: "You don't have any proof and a mere Nine Heaven Xuan Immortal dared to provoke you. No one would believe this."
Jing Fei said calmly: "If you want to take revenge for that suicidal guy, then don't waste time. I dare to kill him so I'm not afraid of Nan Hua Immortal Sect's revenge."
Xiao Lingyu actually didn't want to fight Jing Fei, because there were still many suspicious points in this matter that couldn't be concluded. But if he saw Jing Fei and just let him escape, he wouldn't be able to explain himself. So he had to fight, but he didn't have to be too serious.
"Since you admit to killing my Nan Hua Immortal Sect disciple, then take responsibility!"
Xiao Lingyu said and the wings of extreme speed appeared behind him. He turned into a silver light and rushed towards Jing Fei.
Jing Fei was not one to shy away from a fight. Seeing that his opponent was just waving a palm at him, he did not dodge. Instead, he also pressed a palm forward.
This kind of head-on collision was, in fact, testing each other. Under normal circumstances, everyone would retreat on their own, so there wouldn't be any injuries.
However, just as the two palms were about to collide, Xiao Lingyu's palm suddenly surged with Primal Chaos Truefire. Jing Fei seemed to be prepared as well and a sharp light shot out from his palm.
Whether it was the Primal Chaos Truefire or that ray of light, they all clearly revealed a dangerous aura. However, the two of them seemed to be very confident. Their palms still fiercely pressed together.
Bang!
There was a loud explosion in the air. The two lights flashed wildly for a while and then dissipated at the same time.
Xiao Lingyu and Jing Fei flew back a long distance. However, Xiao Lingyu stabilized himself before Jing Fei.
"Divine Fire?"
After stabilizing himself, Jing Fei felt a burning pain from his palm and looked a little surprised.
On the other hand, Xiao Lingyu's sword-like light also pierced through the Primal Chaos Truefire and stabbed into his palm. However, because the Primal Chaos Truefire had greatly weakened it, it didn't cause him any pain.
"When did Nan Hua Immortal Sect have such a powerful person? Did he just join? Or is he a late-stage Immortal Emperor old monster? "
Jing Fei's heart was bewildered, but his fighting spirit was rising higher and higher. An ancient bronze ruler was already shining in his hand.
"So what if he's a late-stage Immortal Emperor old monster!"
Jing Fei gave himself a boost and then rushed at Xiao Lingyu with the ruler.
Xiao Lingyu didn't want to fight Jing Fei to the death, but he was afraid that Jing Fei would be too aggressive. Therefore, he didn't want to use too many of his trump cards and divine artifacts. Therefore, when the ruler came at him, he only turned his arms into dragon claws and met it.
The bronze ruler was of extraordinary quality. It grew bigger as it came down, but in the end, it was still caught by the dragon claws.
Jing Fei was already close. The ruler in his hand swung, swept, and stabbed, but it was caught by the dragon claws no matter what.
When he was a late-stage Nine Heaven Xuan Immortal, Xiao Lingyu was able to contend with Ji Yong, an early-stage Immortal Emperor who had the Yellow Emperor's bloodline. Although he relied on his Divine Palace to protect himself, he wasn't much weaker than an early-stage Immortal Emperor. Now that he was a late-stage Immortal Monarch, his speed and power were far greater than before. Even though Xiao Lingyu was extraordinary, he was still a newly-ascended early-stage Immortal Emperor and couldn't do anything to him.
Xiao Lingyu also knew that it was difficult for him to defeat Jing Fei. Therefore, he only defended himself and occasionally counterattacked with Chaotic Truefire.
Jing Fei attacked wildly and felt bored. He said, "Are you the one who came to seek revenge or am I the one who came to seek revenge? You came to seek revenge but didn't attack. Why should I fight with you? "
With that, Jing Fei turned and left.
Xiao Lingyu also pretended to chase for a while, but when Jing Fei picked up his speed, he gave up.
Then, Xiao Lingyu returned to the Divine Tomb City and entered the City Lord Mansion.
"Uncle-Master Xiao, did Jing Fei admit to killing our disciples?" Jing Fu asked.
"He did." Xiao Lingyu nodded. He knew in his heart that Jing Fu probably already knew about the fight between him and Jing Fei.
"It seems that the Fenglong Sect is behind this. We should inform the sect headquarters as soon as possible so that the sect can react. We can't let them do whatever they want. We have to teach them a lesson and let them know that the Nan Hua Immortal Sect isn't a pushover." Jing Fu said angrily.
Xiao Lingyu and Jing Xian both frowned.
"He only admitted to killing one person from our Nan Hua Immortal Sect and that person provoked him. The other disciples of the Nan Hua Immortal Sect had nothing to do with him or the Feng Long Sect," Xiao Lingyu added.
"Of course he won't admit it." Jing Fu said matter-of-factly.
"If he didn't admit it, then he wouldn't admit it. Why did he admit to only one case?" Jing Xian said.
"That's because he knows we have evidence," Jing Fu replied.
"It's up to Uncle-Master Xiao to decide whether to inform the sect headquarters or not," Jing Xian said calmly.
"Of course, it's up to Uncle-Master Xiao to decide." Jing Fu realized that he was too agitated and said with a flattering smile.
"I fought with Jing Fei before, and neither of us could do anything to the other. In the end, he retreated. If this is really the doing of the Feng Long Sect, then they will definitely invite someone stronger to come here, or they will just retreat and stop attacking the disciples of the Nan Hua Immortal Sect. No matter which one it is, it is enough to prove something. Therefore, I suggest that we continue to observe for a while."
After Xiao Lingyu said that, he waved his hand to dismiss Jingxian and Jingfu.
Not long after, Jing Xian came back and said, "I think Jing Fu's attitude towards this is a bit strange."
Xiao Lingyu said, "I have the same feeling. He seems to be anxious to link this matter to the Fenglong Sect and wants to escalate the situation."
Jing Xian pondered for a moment before he said, "Master told us that Jing Fu is from Martial Uncle Qingwei's faction. He told us to be careful and not let him get hold of any evidence against us. After all, Martial Uncle Qingwei is in charge of the sect's discipline."
Xiao Lingyu said with a smile, "I don't have any conflict with them, so they won't make things difficult for me."
Jing Xian thought for a while and said, "Uncle-Master came here on the Sect Master's orders and with the Sect Master's disciple. I'm afraid they'll misunderstand."
Xiao Lingyu knew that Jing Xian was testing him on behalf of Qing Pingzi, so he smiled and said perfunctorily, "We're from the same sect after all. There's no need for mutual deception."
With that, Xiao Lingyu dismissed Jing Xian.
After Jing Fu left, he went to the dark secret room. The cultivator in the black robe and cloak was also there.
"How's the matter going?" the man asked, his voice still a bit shaky.
"Uncle-Master Xiao and Jing Xian are very careful. I suggested that we send a message to the sect, but they didn't agree." Jing Fu replied.
"Haha, you're too anxious. You'd better be steady. If you're too anxious, you'll be exposed."
The man shook his head with a smile and said, "That Junior Brother Xiao should've fought with Jing Fei, right?"
Jing Fu answered, "They did. Our spies at Bi Guang Lake sent a message saying that the two of them fought for the time it takes to brew a cup of tea. They were evenly matched. Afterwards, Jing Fei took the initiative to retreat. Xiao Shishu also chased after him, but he was unable to catch up."
The man thought for a while and said, "This Junior Brother Xiao does have some skills. However, he didn't seem to put in any effort this time. Jing Fei is a battle-hungry person. If Junior Brother Xiao had really gone all out, Jing Fei definitely wouldn't have retreated. The two of them also wouldn't have ended the battle without any injuries. "
Jing Fu said, "Uncle-Master Xiao suggested that we wait a little longer. Are we really going to wait, or are we going to use some more aggressive medicine?"
