Was Ling Xian speaking the truth?
No, it was merely a lie he made up. But this lie was logical and nobody could argue against it.
This was because other than the fact that the Valley of Death didn't have Yu Xun Zhen, everything else was true. This was why Ling Xian and the Second Mystery Ji chose that place as the location.
To others, the Valley of Death was a dangerous place with nine out of ten chances of survival. But to Yu Xun Zhen, it was the best place to hide.
Therefore, everyone silenced and somewhat believed him.
"What a bunch of idiots. Just walk on the path of death that I have opened for you."
Ling Xian silently smiled, knowing that this was a foregone conclusion. Even if he can't mislead all the forces, at the very least, many people will head towards the Valley of Death.
This meant he had less pressure and gained a lot of time. Therefore, why wouldn't he be happy?
"Young man, I have to admit that what you are saying makes sense. I am starting to believe you."
The middle-aged man glared at Ling Xian, "But, you have to come with us."
Hearing this, Ling Xian smiled.
He had predicted that someone would ask him to go with them. Therefore, he was using a clone.
"No problem."
Ling Xian agreed right away and smiled, "I believe in the Second Ruler's judgment. I also believe that with your capabilities, you can protect me."
Hearing this, the middle-aged man was stunned. Everyone else was the same.
Though they had nothing to argue with, they were still a little suspicious. This was why they tried to test Ling Xian. Originally, they didn't think he would agree so easily. They didn't think he would agree without hesitation.
This made everyone believe him a little more and the killer's intent they felt lessened.
"Don't worry. As long as what you are saying is true, not only will I make sure you don't die, I will also make sure you enjoy an endless amount of wealth."
The middle-aged man spoke with a smile and placed his right hand on Ling Xian's shoulder. Immediately, a wave of mysterious energy entered his body.
This made Ling Xian frown. But in the next second, his brows relaxed.
If this was anyone else, then this person would've found out their real cultivation level. But what was his real capability? Even though he was merely a clone, he was stronger than the middle-aged man!
Therefore, Ling Xian hid his fifth leveled Qi inside his flesh and blood. No matter how hard the middle-aged man tried, he could not find out his true capabilities.
A moment later, the middle-aged man withdrew his palm, and his smile became wider. Obviously, he was completely convinced.
Everyone else felt the same way.
Ling Xian's words were reasonable and he was willing to go with them. Naturally, they were convinced.
Immediately, everyone sent the news back to their respective forces. There was only one message, which was to send people to the Lifeless Valley as soon as possible.
It wasn't their fault for being stupid. It was just that Ling Xian was too smart and his plan was too thorough.
From the beginning to the end, it could be said that everything was interlinked and flawless. In particular, the fact that he agreed to go with them without hesitation increased the credibility of the entire plan by 70%.
Coupled with all kinds of convincing reasons, how could they not be fooled?
"This time, I must capture Yu Xun Zhen!"
The middle-aged man's eyes were burning with passion, and so were the others.
Only Ling Xian was flashing with cold killer's intent. Especially after seeing everyone's heated faces, he felt like he did nothing wrong.
These people should all die!
"Let's go."
The middle-aged man gave Ling Xian a deep look. Then, he flapped around his sleeve and brought Ling Xian in the southwest direction.
Everyone followed closely behind.
At this, Ling Xian's original body, who was hiding in the forest, laughed. There was some sarcasm and coldness in his laughter.
Watching everyone's disappearing silhouette, he uttered out a few words.
"On the road to hell, I hope you have a safe journey."
...
At the border of the Xuanji Area and the Sorcerer Area, there was a vast and endless ocean.
This ocean had no name, but everyone knew about it. As long as one heads east, they would be able to see it.
Currently, Ling Xian was on his way to that ocean. He was summoning his Winged Blitz in an attempt to get Yu Xun Zhen to a safe location before the other forces realized what was going on.
Along the way, he had heard a lot of news about Yu Xun Zhen. One of them made him very happy.
Because his lies were far too real, all the top forces believed him without a doubt. They all sent out people to the Lifeless Valley.
This meant, at least in the short term, Ling Xian didn't need to worry. But he couldn't be reckless. Because once all the forces realize what was going on, what follows will be anger. They may even send out all their forces to hunt him down!
When that happens, he and Yu Xun Zhen will truly be in a dead end.
Therefore, Ling Xian used every second he had and moved forward at full speed. Finally, on the third day, he arrived at the ocean.
Then, he dove into the ocean and activated the spiritual energy the Second Mystery left on him.
After some time, Ling Xian's eyes brightened as he sensed Yu Xun Zhen's spiritual energy. Although it was weak, he could clearly feel it.
"I finally found you. Xun Zhen, hang in there."
Mumbling, Ling Xian used his Qi to break through the water. First, he descended to the bottom of the ocean. Then, he headed north.
Along the way, he encountered many powerful sea monsters. He even ran into a sixth level Yaksha. However, to him today, these were nothing. Even if all the sea monsters attacked him at once, they may not be able to stop him.
Therefore, Ling Xian wasn't stopped at all and successfully found Yu Xun Zhen.
For one, he relied on the imprint left on her by the Second Mystery. For two, she was far too eye-catching.
Before him was a colorful coral reef. Around it, countless sea monsters gathered. Every single one of their eyes revealed their greed and desire.
In the middle of the coral reef, Yu Xun Zhen laid powerlessly on the bottom of the ocean. Her entire body was dyed red and she was extremely weak.
She looked even weaker than when Ling Xian first saw her!
Therefore, his eyes turned red immediately. Heartache and anger intertwined with each other, making him angry.
Especially after seeing the greedy stares from the sea monsters, he was infuriated and his killer's intent shot through the cloud!
"Get the f! ck out of my way!"
After a loud shout, Ling Xian made his move. Instantly, giant waves were created that engulfed the sea monsters.
HOMMM, HOMMM, HOMMM!
Everything shook and the sea monsters howled. They could not stop Ling Xian's prowess. Even the sea monsters of the sixth level could not defend against it. Several of their bones were broken.
This terrified all the sea monsters. Without another word, they began to run away, terrified that if they were one step slower, they would be killed by Ling Xian right here and now!
What could they do? He was far too powerful. One attack was enough to make all the sea monsters puke out blood. Why wouldn't they feel fear?
Yu Xun Zhen, on the other hand, was stunned.
She stared at the murderous Ling Xian. Her eyes that were full of hopelessness suddenly lit up. Then, two streams of tears rolled down her cheeks.
"Ling Xian …"
This soft call was filled with so much joy and so much sadness.
This made Ling Xian's murderous intent disappear. What replaced it was a gentle smile.
Just as he and Yu Xun Zhen exchanged glances, a good show was playing out in the Valley of Death.
