Currently, the Sun was hanging high in the sky. It was noon.
Inside a dense forest, Ling Xian gently descended. Like an immortal, he landed on top of an ancient tree that towered into the sky.
This place was very far away from the capital. In other words, not only did he get rid of a huge threat, he also escaped unscathed!
One has to admit that this was a shocking achievement!
In the entire Yunzhou, how many people could kill the Third Prince in the capital and escape after the emperor personally made a move? Very few people could do this.
Yet before his eyes, Ling Xian had done it. This was naturally a magnificent achievement!
"I am basically safe now that I am here."
Ling Xian softly grinned and dispersed the Winged Blitz. He planned on healing his internal injuries first.
A long time ago, he was hurt by the Song of the Crouching Dragon. He had been suppressing it with his Qi, which was why it didn't explode. However, during the battle with the Third Prince, this internal injury had suddenly acted up and almost cost him his life.
Luckily, he learned the Disorder Conquering Fists and this unparalleled technique was powerful enough. This was why he didn't lose his life. Instead, he displayed his undefeatable prowess and killed the Third Prince!
Then, though he used the Minor Shift Array to play around with the emperor, he was still an original leveled powerhouse after all. Though he dodged the attack, his body was impacted a little.
Therefore, Ling Xian naturally had to stop his footsteps and heal up his injuries.
Therefore, he sat in a lotus position on a thick tree branch and slowly closed his eyes. He called upon Qi from Heaven and Earth to heal his internal injuries.
Waves of spiritual energy poured out of the air. Then, Ling Xian's pores opened up and he absorbed all the spiritual energy into his body.
It was to make use of the healing effects of the spiritual qi to regulate his internal organs and meridians, eliminating the hidden injuries in his body. Even though the healing effect of spiritual energy was very weak and could even be said to be negligible, absorbing spiritual energy on such a large scale was still effective.
What could he do? Though Ling Xian was knowledgeable in alchemy, he rarely brewed Dans. Therefore, he only had the Dan of Life and Growth that could heal external wounds. He had no spiritual Dan that could heal internal injuries. He could only rely on this stupid method to slowly heal himself.
Just like that, he calmed his mind and absorbed all the spiritual energy in the air to heal his internal injuries.
Time passed little by little. After about 10 days, the hidden injuries from the Song of the Crouching Dragon finally disappeared.
The moment it disappeared, Ling Xian abruptly opened his eyes. His entire being was filled with energy. He no longer had to worry about his internal injuries suddenly erupting at a critical moment, consigning him to eternal damnation.
"Phew …"
Ling Xian breathed out a mouthful of murky air and grinned, "My internal injuries have been taken care of. The Third Prince has been dealt with as well. Now I have nothing to worry about."
Indeed, he was brimming with energy now. His entire body was filled with power, as if he had been reborn. Now that the Third Prince was dead, he no longer had to worry about being assassinated.
However, after he became the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, he understood that this wasn't the end.
"The emperor … a terrifying original leveled powerhouse …"
Ling Xian mumbled. Remembering the emperor's heaven-shocking prowess, he couldn't help but to softly sigh. He muttered to himself, "Now the grudge between us is getting bigger and bigger. What a headache."
"An original leveled powerhouse. He isn't alone either, he is the leader of the Zhou Dynasty. How troublesome."
Sighing, Ling Xian felt his head ache. However, he wasn't afraid. If he was afraid, then he wouldn't have gone to the Third Prince and killed him.
It was just that after personally witnessing the emperor's prowess, he felt a sense of urgency and anticipation.
"It looks like I have to hurry up and train …"
Ling Xian's eyes flashed with anticipation, "I wonder what kind of world I will be in after I reach the completion level?"
Even though he said that, he knew very well that reaching the original level was not an easy task. Remember that every small level in the completion level requires decades of hard work. Ling Xian was only in the intermediate stage of the completion level, a few levels away from the original level.
On top of that, he had tasted the sweetness of the meditational and foundational levels, why would he miss out on the undefeatable realm of the completion level?
"These things are still far away. I should put them aside for now. The most important thing right now is to figure out where to go."
Ling Xian stayed silent for a while. Thinking about all the rumors he heard after he returned to Yunzhou, he couldn't help but to smile and set his goal.
The Wan Jian House.
This was the powerful House he planned to enter eight years ago. However, due to various reasons, he didn't.
Back then, he left the City of Qing with Elder Si Tu Nan and planned to enter the Wan Jian House. However, because of the red-robed old man who appeared out of nowhere, they were separated.
Then, he came to the Zhou Dynasty and planned on using the portal to get to the Wan Jian House. Sadly, this time, because of Deputy Xiao Yao, he broke the portal and ended up in the ocean.
This time, he was gone for seven years.
"Calculating the time, it's been a year since I left the City of Qing and seven years in the ocean. In other words, it's been eight years." Ling Xian exclaimed. Remembering how the Supreme Headmaster gave out three orders for him, he couldn't help but feel warm.
"Even though I never entered the House, the Wan Jian House seems to be treating me like a disciple. The Supreme Headmaster even gave out three orders to protect me."
Ling Xian revealed a faint smile, thinking that he didn't choose the wrong House. The Wan Jian House was worth his time.
There was no doubt about this. Even though he didn't show his face and made enemies, the Wan Jian House was willing to help him. Dao Wu Ji even sent out three Orders of the Supreme Headmaster and stood out to threaten the entire Yunzhou. How great of an honor was this?
How could a House like this not be worth his time?
"I am ashamed. It's been eight years and I haven't even shown my face. Yet the Wan Jian House treats me so well. This House is worth my time. "
Grinning, Ling Xian stood up and once again called out to the Winged Blitz. He planned on heading to the Wan Jian House immediately.
"Let's go. It's time for me to visit my own House."
Anticipation flashed across his eyes. Ling Xian slowly extended his wings. The white feathers were almost translucent under the sunlight and were extremely beautiful. Beneath this beauty was a speed that cultivators of the same level cannot match.
Whooosh!
A white light sliced across the sky. Under the protection of the Winged Blitz, Ling Xian dashed towards the North like a shooting star.
...
Just as Ling Xian was heading towards the Wan Jian House, the entire Zhou Dynasty learned of the Third Prince's death. They also learned that the Emperor couldn't stop the killer.
At this moment, the entire Zhou Dynasty fell into a state of shock. As time went on, this shocking news spread further and further. In the end, it formed a storm that swept across the entire Yunzhou.
Everyone in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect heard the news.
