Proud Sword Soaring Clouds

Chapter 414: Chapter 296: Body Training Under the Sea

Song Mingyue glanced back at the High-Tier Magical Beasts in the Crystal Ball, which were ferociously attacking the humans. She then looked at Shangguan Yutong and said, "Sister, do you have any way to subdue those Magical Beasts? With so many of them, who would we have to fear if we could take them with us?"

Shangguan Yutong shook her head with a wry smile. "These Magical Beasts only obey the commands of the Patriarch. However, they won’t attack descendants who possess the Shangguan Clan’s bloodline!"

Song Mingyue concentrated for a moment, and it clicked. ’That’s right, the Magical Beasts never came after us. So that’s why.’ Ling Xiao was also a little surprised, but he was still convinced the beasts simply treated this area as a forbidden land. The people from the other prominent families and sects, though powerful, were already losing their composure under the assault of so many Magical Beasts. They would never have imagined that the direction they fled in was also significant.

"Let’s leave this place."

Shangguan Yutong said quietly, her expression composed. She could feel the abundant power coursing through her meridians. Although she didn’t feel overly proud, her heart was still pounding with excitement. She silently warned herself, ’I must stay calm. I can’t let that Little Demon, Song Mingyue, laugh at me.’

Sure enough, Song Mingyue gave Shangguan Yutong a surprised glance, a hint of admiration in her heart. She thought, ’If I had suddenly obtained such power, could I have remained so composed?’

Following Shangguan Yutong’s directions, the three of them took a secret passage. When they emerged, they were greeted by a sky full of stars and a cool, refreshing breeze. They had lost track of how many days had passed. They were now on the other side of the Qin Family Island. It was unclear if the others had managed to escape with their lives. But even if they had gotten out by some stroke of luck, they wouldn’t dare return anytime soon with so many Magical Beasts still present.

Although they hadn’t fully explored the area, that group hadn’t left empty-handed. They had obtained many sword techniques and Cultivation Techniques, and had likely taken a large number of Magic Beast Crystal Cores as well. As for the solid Gold statues, while Gold was valuable, it wasn’t anything particularly rare to people of their standing.

So, as long as they managed to escape with their lives, you couldn’t say they gained nothing.

Just then, a clear cry echoed from the sky. Ling Xiao said in a low voice, "clown is here."

Sure enough, just as he finished speaking, the three of them could see a white figure flying toward them from the distant night sky at incredible speed. It landed in front of them and let out a few excited cries.

Ling Xiao’s eyes lit up as he looked at clown. He could feel a powerful energy fluctuation coming from it—it had clearly grown stronger again! Ling Xiao truly had no idea what realm this little guy could reach. After all, while still in its egg, it had drained both of the Tier Five Magic Beast Crystal Cores he possessed at the time!

In Ling Xiao’s own words, if clown didn’t show any promise, he’d roast it and eat it.

It felt like it had just happened, the memory as clear as day. Ling Xiao affectionately stroked clown’s head. The creature nuzzled its large, fluffy head against Ling Xiao’s chest a few times, then let out several loud cries toward Shangguan Yutong that echoed far into the night sky. Thankfully, this place was desolate; otherwise, people would have been terrified. Even so, a complete silence fell over a radius of dozens of *li* where clown had landed. Not a single animal dared to make a sound!

This was the imposing aura of a High-Tier Magical Beast. Its presence alone was enough to make Low-Tier Magical Beasts tremble in fear.

The three of them climbed onto clown’s broad back. With a single beat of its wings, clown effortlessly took flight, soaring several hundred meters into the air in an instant and heading straight for Penzes City.

Suddenly, an immense pressure came from behind them. clown shrieked in a mix of alarm and anger, its body lurching as it nearly plummeted from the sky. Below them was the boundless ocean. With their strength, falling wouldn’t be a problem, but who was this person? To be able to project such a massive aura from so far away without even being seen!

Ling Xiao immediately thought of the three old fossils from the Qin Family and hurriedly said, "Ming Yue, Sister, you two leave with clown now! I’ll hold him off for a while! I’ll catch up right after!"

Shangguan Yutong said resolutely, "No! My strength has also reached the Sword Emperor Realm now. I absolutely will not abandon you and run away alone!"

Although Song Mingyue had suddenly become the weakest of the three, her resolve was no less firm than Shangguan Yutong’s. Her beautiful, star-like eyes stared at Ling Xiao. "Husband, didn’t we promise? Even if we die, we die together!"

Ling Xiao was both touched and amused. "Die? Who’s going to die? Nobody’s dying! But if you don’t leave now, we really will die! He’s a Sword Venerable expert! How can you possibly stand against him? Ming Yue, have you forgotten about my cauldron?"

Song Mingyue reached out and handed Ling Xiao the other Deep Sea Poison Dragon Eye, which possessed a water-repelling effect. She gave Ling Xiao a deep look, then said, "Husband, Sister and I will be waiting for you in Penzes City!"

Shangguan Yutong started to say something else, but Song Mingyue pulled her back. clown, having already received Ling Xiao’s command, suddenly beat its wings much faster and vanished into the night in an instant.

Ling Xiao hovered in mid-air, facing the distance, and shouted, "Who’s there? Stop skulking in the shadows! If you have the guts, come out and face me for three hundred rounds!"
