"What does Alexander Yin Mountain targeting me have to do with you, Master?"
Ling Xiao asked curiously.
Chen Buyi sighed and smiled wryly, "This child wanted to become my disciple before, but I rejected him as his aptitude was not as good as Chen Cangxiong's.
I said that I would not accept any disciples in the future.
Now that I suddenly accepted you, he dared not blame me, but transferred his anger onto you."
"No wonder, this is truly a disaster that came out of nowhere."
Ling Xiao gave a bitter smile.
"Are you scared?"
Chen Buyi asked.
"Scared? Not really, but it is somewhat troublesome to meet an enemy like this so soon. Let's go, Master; today's selection is over, and I need to prepare for tomorrow's high-ranking disciple selection. I don't have time to worry about these things."
Ling Xiao smiled. Since he wanted to become a high-ranking disciple, he would have to face this sooner or later, it just happened earlier than expected.
"Alright."
Chen Buyi nodded, and the two of them began to walk away again.
After returning to the Demon Child Hall, Ling Xiao started cultivating.
He had just had a breakthrough in his cultivation level, and needed to consolidate it through cultivation.
In the deep of night, the bright moonlight spilled down from the sky like a pool of clear water.
The Demon Child Hall was quiet, apart from Ling Xiao, Xiao Jin, and Heiye Wuxing, only a few yawning servants remained.
Having been busy all day, they were tired.
At this moment, the hall seemed very peaceful.
Suddenly, a black shadow glided through the moonlight, moving as swiftly as a ghost, instantly landing on the beams of the Demon Child Hall.
Afterward, a cold gaze fell upon one room.
Inside that room, a faint aura was constantly being released, indicating someone was cultivating.
"Humph, such poor vigilance, might as well kill you now to avoid wasting time!"
The shadow coldly smiled, about to fly into that room.
Suddenly, a wolf shadow shot out from there, immediately arriving in front of him, landing steadily on the beam, and then transforming into human form.
The shadow furrowed his brows, obviously having underestimated the person inside the house.
"Leave the Demon Dragon Sect on your own!"
The shadow stared coldly at the person before him, speaking indifferently. Although surprised, the opponent's strength was still far below his, hence he felt no tension.
Instead, his voice was filled with arrogance and indifference.
Another one who thinks so lowly of others?
Upon hearing this, Ling Xiao gave a faint smile, his handsome and cool face under the moonlight exuding an aura of disdain.
"With just you?"
He knew the person was Alexander Yin Mountain, who had been watching him earlier today.
The opponent's strength was indeed formidable, but so what?
He had encountered many people like him, and had never been afraid.
Alexander Yin Mountain's originally cold gaze suddenly shot out lights akin to monster beasts.
Without a word, a pitch-black mountain shadow emerged behind him.
The shadow was vast and undulating, exuding a sense of eerie oppression.
From his body, an overwhelming pressure attacked Ling Xiao, akin to the mountain behind him.
"A Yinshan Martial Soul? That's unusual!"
Ling Xiao furrowed his brows, truly finding it intriguing. He had seen many martial souls, but such a martial soul was exceptionally rare.
A Yin Mountain is not an ordinary mountain; it's said to be the entrance to Hell.
Thus, the Yinshan Martial Soul not only exudes the mountain's horrifying pressure but also Hell's sinister aura, making people very uncomfortable.
Thinking of this, Ling Xiao suddenly felt excited.
A blood-red sword martial soul appeared behind him, followed by the Blood Thunder King Sword in his hand.
Facing Alexander Yin Mountain, he had no fear, but dared not underestimate him either.
"Blood Thunder King Sword? Just as the rumors said, the Sect Master defeated Chen Cangxiong, but credited you, even giving you the Blood Thunder King Sword.
It truly makes people envious.
However, a weakling has no right to be the Sect Master's disciple!
If you refuse to leave, you're headed for a dead end!"
Seeing the Blood Thunder King Sword, Alexander Yin Mountain finally spoke.
As his words fell, he turned into a pitch-black shadow, piercing the darkness, shooting toward Ling Xiao like lightning.
Beneath the moonlight, Alexander Yin Mountain's terrifying offensive drove his Yinshan Martial Soul to stir up a gale, creating a tremendously shocking scene.
The horrifying shadow continuously enlarged in Ling Xiao's view.
Ling Xiao took a deep breath, as his body gradually transformed into the terrifying Tyrant Blood Demon Dragon Beast Soul.
Only a Tyrant Blood Demon Dragon was more suitable for the Blood Thunder King Sword, and could unleash its power to the fullest.
"Stop!"
An angry shout cut through the void.
Alexander Yin Mountain's attack abruptly came to a halt.
Ling Xiao also withdrew the Blood Thunder King Sword.
Today's battle seemed it couldn't continue.
Standing between them was a figure, clearly visible under the moonlight.
It was the Demon Dragon Messenger Chen Lawrence.
Chen Lawrence turned to Alexander Yin Mountain and coldly said, "Alexander Yin Mountain, this is the Demon Child Hall, what are you trying to do?"
Alexander Yin Mountain gave Chen Lawrence a faint glance, bowed slightly, and said, "Greetings, Demon Dragon Messenger. I was simply looking to spar with the renowned Ling Xiao, without any malice.
Why worry, Demon Dragon Messenger? If he truly is Ling Xiao and could defeat the Purple Thunder General, how could he possibly not withstand a single blow from me?
Tomorrow is the high-ranking disciple selection; he'll face me sooner or later, do you intend to protect him forever, Demon Dragon Messenger?"
"Silence!"
Chen Lawrence sternly retorted, "Whatever you intend, don't think I am unaware. Considering your past services to the Sect Master, I won't do anything to you today.
If you continue to cause trouble, don't blame me for being rude."
His foster father Chen Buyi gave him the utmost task of protecting Ling Xiao at all costs.
Ling Xiao's current status was bound to invite hostility; without protection, it would lead to trouble.
Upon hearing Chen Lawrence's words, Alexander Yin Mountain's complexion turned uglier.
In his view, he had known Chen Lawrence for a longer time.
Even if not friends, they were supposedly on better terms.
Yet today, Chen Lawrence rebuked him outright for Ling Xiao, fueling the raging fire within him.
Why?
Why allow this impostor to seize all benefits?
Those things were meant for him!
"Ling Xiao, if you still consider yourself a man, don't hide behind Chen Lawrence. That would only make you appear like a turtle retreating into its shell."
Alexander Yin Mountain desperately wanted to suppress his anger, but it erupted like a volcano.
He roared at Ling Xiao in fury.
Hoping that Ling Xiao was a foolish ignoramus, so that Chen Lawrence had no grounds to obstruct their duel.
The Demon Dragon Sect differed from other sects, private combat was permissible, requiring no agreement or reporting.
As long as both parties consented, they could fight anywhere.
Of course, he hoped Ling Xiao would disregard Chen Lawrence and fight directly.
