In the middle of the palace, Ling Xian made his move. Heavenly energy headed towards the two of them.
He knew he didn't have much time. If other powerhouses are attracted to him, then he would be in trouble. Therefore, he attacked with all his might. His undefeatable Qi shook the two of them.
For one, they didn't think Ling Xian would make a move so decisively. For two, they didn't think his Qi would be so aggressive. They felt like they couldn't defend against him.
The leader of the imperial guards, in particular, was in awe.
He was also of the intermediate stage of the Path Choosing Realm. But against Ling Xian's Qi, he felt like he was merely of the beginning stage. Or in other words, he felt like the person before him was of the advanced stage!
Therefore, why wouldn't he be shocked?
But right now, he had no time to think. He attacked with all he had to defend against Ling Xian.
HOMMMM!
With a deafening explosion, an extremely terrifying shockwave spread out in all directions.
Instantly, the space crumbled. The person next to the leader was knocked out and fainted.
This made the leader's expression darken. He asked in a cold voice, "Who are you and what do you want?"
"Who I am is not important. What is important is that I need you to do me a small favor."
Ling Xian's expression was emotionless. His white robe fluttered in the wind, revealing his sage-like demeanor.
"What favor? As long as I can help, I will do my best. There is no need to fight. "The leader frowned, not willing to fight Ling Xian.
Because after that attack just now, he realized that he was no opponent of the person before him. Though he didn't want to admit it, it was an undeniable fact!
Therefore, this person had the intention to retreat.
"Very simple."
Ling Xian spoke softly, "If you tell me the location of the mermaid's sacrifice, I will leave immediately. I will not hurt you."
"What? Impossible! "
The leader rejected right away. But he said it was impossible, not that he didn't know.
This meant he knew.
Therefore, the corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up and he grinned, "It seems like I found the right person."
"No, you found the wrong person."
The guard's expression was gloomy as he said, "No matter what, I will never tell you. You should just give up on this idea."
"Don't be too firm with your words. Between your life and your loyalty, make a choice." Ling Xian's eyes were as sharp as swords, threatening the Imperial Guard.
At the same time, his palms and fingers were glowing. The Disorder Conquering Fists were ready to strike. Before it was released, it already had the power to shatter the heavens and split the earth!
"If I kill you, I won't have to choose anything!"
The guard sneered and formed a seal with both hands. A terrifying technique roared out. It was majestic and earthshaking.
"Since you won't shed a tear until you see your coffin, I shall gift you a coffin."
Ling Xian erased his smile. The Disorder Conquering Fists were unstoppable and unstoppable!
Instantly, the guard leader's technique was shattered and he stumbled back a few steps.
Then, Ling Xian pressed down with his palm. Heavenly light poured out and crushed the void!
This made the imperial guard's expression change. He tried his best to defend, but he couldn't defend against Qin Wentian's divine might. Once again, he was pushed back several steps.
"Give up. Although you and I are of the same level, our battle prowess is as different as heaven and earth. Continue to struggle, it will be futile. "
Ling Xian said emotionlessly. He continued to throw punches. Every single punch was terrifying and the entire space shook.
The guard captain's heart also gradually sank.
Just like Ling Xian said, though the two of them were both in the intermediate stage of the Dao Choosing Realm, there was a fundamental difference in their battling abilities. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they were as different as clouds and mud.
Therefore, the guard leader felt bitter. He didn't think the gap between him and Ling Xian would be so huge.
This made him bitter and he didn't want to give up!
"Die!"
The guard leader went insane. He unleashed all sorts of techniques and his treasures, shaking up the space and shocking everyone!
However, he couldn't move Ling Xian.
No matter how many techniques he unleashed or how many treasures he had, Ling Xian's one punch was heaven-defying and broke through all techniques!
HOMM, HOMM, HOMM!
The light from his fists pierced through the sky. Ling Xian pushed the Disorder Conquering Fists to the extreme and destroyed all the attacks the guard leader was throwing at him!
This made the guard even more bitter but there was nothing he could do.
What could he do? This was the difference between a normal cultivator and a Heaven's Favorite. It was like a chasm that was difficult to cross.
"Defeat him!"
Ling Xian shouted. His palm began to emit light and like a small Sun, it smashed down. As the space crumbled, the guard leader began to puke blood.
Then, he slapped out with his palm and sent the man flying.
Retch!
The guard leader puked out a mouthful of fresh blood and fell onto the ground powerlessly. He no longer had any more energy to fight.
"Now, you can speak."
Ling Xian spoke emotionlessly as he marched towards the Imperial Guard. With every step he took, the coldness in the air intensified.
This caused the guard to feel fear in his heart, but he remained silent.
Speaking would mean betraying the mermaid's majesty and he wouldn't have a good ending. But if he doesn't speak, he will still die.
This difficult choice put him in a difficult position and he didn't know what to do.
"Just speak. At least you won't die right now. Plus, only Heaven and Earth know about this. If you don't speak, who will know? "
Ling Xian glared at him, "Though the mermaid's majesty is powerful, there is no way she knows what happened today. You don't have to worry."
Hearing this, the guard leader's eyes flickered. He was a little tempted.
Just like Ling Xian had said, as long as he doesn't speak of what happened today, who will know?
"I have one more question."
The guard leader spoke in a low voice, "If you are captured by the mermaid's majesty, will you tell anyone about what happened today?"
"I won't. If I am captured, I will self-destruct right away to avoid a fate worse than death."
Ling Xian shook his head. He didn't think he would be captured. If he was captured, he would be tortured.
Therefore, he had already made up his mind. If he is captured, he will self-destruct!
"Okay, then I promise you." The guard leader gritted his teeth. Between loyalty and his life, he chose the latter.
"Smart choice."
The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up, "Speak, where is it?"
"After leaving the palace, walk 100 miles to the west. There is an underground palace. Once you enter, you will see the altar," the guard leader said.
"Very good. One more question. Are the young girls being sacrificed there as well?"
Ling Xian faintly grinned. He wasn't worried that the guard leader would lie to him. Because if he were to announce this, then whether or not the guard was telling the truth, it would be a form of betrayal.
Betrayal was something that those in power could not tolerate.
Therefore, whether it was to calm Ling Xian down or to save his own life, there was no way he would lie.
"Yes."
The guard leader's eyes flickered, "So you are here because of the imprisoned girls."
"What I am here for is none of your business."
Ling Xian spoke softly, "What happened today, just pretend it never happened. Let it rot in your heart."
"Even if you don't tell me, I will bury this in my heart."
The guard leader looked at the man before him, "Let me warn you, don't go. Her Majesty's capabilities are not something you can imagine."
"I have a way out. I have a choice. But I don't want to choose. I don't want to retreat."
Ling Xian softly grinned. In a flash, he arrived at the palace's gate.
Then, he unleashed one Disorder Conquering Fists after another, knocking out all the guards who attacked the Python.
"Python, let's go!"
After a long laugh, Ling Xian hopped onto the snake's back and galloped away.
His destination was the Sacrificial Palace!
