In midair, the White Tiger Clan's patriarch's aura swallowed mountains and rivers, blocking all attacks from all directions.
This made Ling Xian sigh in relief. There were far too many people who were attacking him and they were all from the ninth level.
If the leader of the White Tiger Kind didn't help, he would've died for sure.
Thus, Ling Xian paid his respect to the tall man, "Thank you, leader."
"It's too early to thank me. I may not be able to protect you."
The tall man's expression was heavy. He glanced to the East, then to the West. In the end, he stopped at the front.
There stood a man in black.
He was elegant, handsome, and gentle like a jade. He was like a scholar who didn't have the strength to truss a chicken.
However, he was in sync with the Dao. He was unpredictable and extraordinary.
"Even you aren't confident …" Ling Xian squinted his eyes and realized how dangerous of a situation he was in.
The tall man was a God who dominated the mortal realm. He was also a pure-blooded White Tiger with the ability to defeat those of the same level. If even he wasn't confident he could protect Ling Xian, then it wasn't hard to imagine how terrifying the enemy was.
"This person is the leader of the Roc Kind. He cannot do anything to me and I cannot suppress him."
"The East is the leader of the Black Tortoise Kind. In terms of offense, he cannot compare to me. But in terms of defense, I cannot compare to him."
"The West is the leader of the Real Phoenix Kind. Against him, I only have a 50% chance of winning."
The tall man softly sighed, "That's in a one on one situation. If it's one against three, I won't even have a chance of surviving."
Hearing this, Ling Xian's expression turned serious. He finally understood why the tall man said he wasn't confident he could protect him.
The three of them were all pure-blooded royals and were all Gods. Other than those close to the Dao, who could protect him?
"Brother, long time no see." The man in black smiled. His demeanor was out of this world and out of this world.
"It really has been a long time."
The tall man's gaze was deep. He glanced to the East and then to the West, "We haven't seen each other in a long time. Are you not planning on showing yourself?"
At those words, a man in white walked out of the void. His brows were sharp like swords and his eyes were bright like stars.
It was the leader of the Real Phoenix Kind.
At the same time, the East quaked and a man who was surrounded by murky air appeared.
He was the leader of the Black Tortoise Clan.
In terms of defense, he is the best among all the Ancient Demon Beasts. Even the leader of the royal family cannot compare to him.
Along with the appearance of this person, this expanse of the heavens and the earth instantly fell silent. Everyone was silent, and they didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
Who dared to interrupt a meeting between the four Sovereigns? Even a Ninth Realm cultivator was not qualified to do so!
"We can talk about the past later. Let's talk about business first."
The Patriarch of the Black Tortoise Clan looked at the tall man and asked, "You want to protect this person?"
"He is a great benefactor to the White Tiger Clan. I won't look on with folded arms." The tall man's tiger eyes contained light, and his baleful aura surged into the heavens.
His gentleness was only shown to Ling Xian. Towards others, he was always domineering.
"Even if it means becoming enemies with the three of us, you won't hesitate?" The leader of the Black Tortoise Clan asked indifferently.
"Not bad." The tall man was as domineering as an emperor. These two simple words revealed his determination.
"Just what kind of great favor could make you protect him like this?"
The man in black faintly grinned, "I heard someone solved the crisis the White Tiger Clan was facing. Could it be him?"
"You guessed right." The tall man spoke softly. His murderous aura transformed into the silhouette of a white tiger.
"It really is him …"
The man in black's gaze froze. Even the phoenix leader's expression changed.
They knew very well how difficult it was to solve the White Tiger Clan's problem. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that even if they searched the entire Ancient Demon Beasts, they wouldn't be able to find someone who could solve it.
Yet, it was solved by a mere eighth level human. Even though they have seen many storms and waves, they were still shocked.
"No wonder you are so protective of him." The man in black gave Ling Xian a long look.
"Alright, let's not waste any more time. One answer. Are you going to retreat or not?" The tall man spoke aggressively, and the silhouette of the white tiger howled.
ROAR!
The space cracked and the universe split open. The tall man's ferocious demeanor shocked everyone.
"You truly are a ferocious tiger. But if you think you can force us to retreat with one statement, you are dreaming."
The man in black smiled, "I can give you some face. As long as he hands over the Soaring Light, I will guarantee his safe departure."
"Perhaps you don't believe me, but I cannot control the Soaring Light." Ling Xian softly sighed. He didn't even know how the Soaring Light entered his body, let alone controlling it.
"Hmm?"
The man in black frowned, "Young man, do you think I will believe you?"
"It's up to you whether you want to believe me or not."
Ling Xian sighed and shifted his gaze towards the man in white, "Phoenix leader, you want my life as well?"
"I don't want to." The phoenix leader's gaze deepened, "But, I want to know why the Soaring Light entered your body."
"I want to know that as well." Ling Xian shook his head and smiled bitterly. The moment the Soaring Light entered his body, it was as if it evaporated. Nothing strange happened.
"I believe you. So, I will not attack." The phoenix leader's expression was gentle, "But, they may not believe me."
"Thank you, phoenix leader." Ling Xian sighed in relief. Though the phoenix leader didn't express that she would help him, as long as she doesn't attack, he would feel less pressure.
"Interesting. Not only is a humankind being protected by the leader of the White Tiger Kind, he is also making you stop."
"What is even more shocking is that the Soaring Light entered his body of its own accord."
The man in black shifted his gaze towards Ling Xian, "Young man, I am getting more and more curious about you."
Hearing this, Ling Xian frowned but didn't say anything.
Being interested in him wasn't a good thing. This meant the man in black wanted to capture him and study him.
"One against two, I am no opponent. But, I can stop you." The tall man smiled. Earlier, he thought the phoenix leader would attack, which was why he acted like he was facing a great enemy.
Now that the phoenix leader had clearly stated that she won't attack, of course he relaxed.
"You are still the same as before. You like to talk big."
The leader of the Black Tortoise Kind spoke softly. Then, he shifted his gaze towards the man in black, "I will stop him. You capture this person."
"Alright." The man in black didn't waste any more words. His palm covered the sky.
At the same time, the leader of the Black Tortoise Kind made his move as well.
He stomped down, destroying everything in his path as he headed towards the tall man.
"Get the f! ck out of my way!"
His eyes shot out electricity and his demeanor swallowed the mountains and rivers. The tall man made his move aggressively. With enough energy to split open the sky, he attacked the two leaders.
HOMMMM!
Following an earth-shattering rumble, the shockwave rolled out in all directions. Other than the phoenix leader, everyone else was dripping blood from their mouths as they stumbled back.
What could they do? This was a clash between three supreme beings. Even a ninth leveled cultivator cannot handle it.
"What an unexpected disaster." Ling Xian bitterly smiled, feeling helpless.
If he was the one who took the Soaring Light, then he wouldn't care. But he didn't even know why the Soaring Light entered his body. This was far too unfair.
"I hope he can stop these two."
Looking at the ferocious man who killed two supreme beings, Ling Xian softly sighed. If the man cannot stop them, then he will die for sure.
