In the courtyard, Wu Yue bowed to Ling Xiao, and there seemed to be a ray of soul light disappearing in his eyes.
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
At this time, Mo Lan and Zhu'er had returned to their rooms, leaving only Ling Xiao sitting in the courtyard, looking at the sky in the distance with an indifferent expression.
although!!
Xia Lin is dead. When the second prince came to Sword City, he was regarded as the most advantageous contender for the sword immortal inheritance.
However, before he even entered the Sword Valley, he was plotted to death by Ling Xiao.
Can!!
In Ling Xiao's heart, Xia Lin is not even worthy of being called an opponent. .??.
A sick dog who is good at scheming but has no strength, as long as he is not in Sword City, Ling Xiao's halberd can easily kill him.
The reason why he wasted his efforts and arranged the chess game in front of him was actually to force Yan Xu to find the inheritance of the Immortal King, and at the same time... to test Mo Lan's real purpose.
When the Sword Valley opens, he can use Yan Xu to find the secret treasure, and then naturally harvest this "demon".
In this way, Ziyun Immortal Mansion not only lost an ancient freak, but also was charged with colluding with the Demon Sect, and completely lost the trust of the Xia clan.
Kill two birds with one stone!
As for the opponents in Sword Valley this time, the two ancient freaks from the Holy Land of Sword Dao are obviously more difficult to deal with.
Moreover, it is absolutely impossible for Xuantian Sword Master to suddenly open the Sword Valley to select successors and cultivate new Qingyuan Sword Immortals with good intentions.
In doing so, he must have hidden other purposes, and it may be... related to the inheritance of these three holy lands of swordsmanship.
The three major sword arts are the most advanced sword skills in the world, especially the sword arts practiced by Xuantian Sword Master, whose names are not even known to the world.
He has attracted so many kendo monsters here with great fanfare, and he calls it "selecting successors", but he may have... evil intentions.
Also, Ling Xiao was surprised by the attitude of the Jun family when Sword Valley was opened this time.
Originally, after Ling Xiao and Jun Wangu reached an agreement, the two imperial clans were barely considered allies.
But now, the two holy bodies of the Jun family have arrived, but they have lost their previous respect for him.
The strength of Emperor Jun Tian is still
It's not too powerful, but the Jun family's first holy body, Jun Cangtian, is comparable to ancient freaks.
Back when Ling Xiao was in Qingcang, he also saw a Cangtian Holy Body.
Zhan Xiaotian!!
After becoming the War Emperor, his combat prowess once surprised Ling Xiao.
Now this Holy Body of the Jun family has been practicing hard in seclusion for tens of thousands of years in the imperial clan's heritage.
Once his fighting power breaks out, it is likely to surprise many people.
"Sir, what should I do next?"
Wu Yue looked at Ling Xiao with confused eyes, as if moonlight was rising around her, like a dream.
I have to say that the appearance of this Zifu fairy is indeed extremely beautiful.
Especially under the moonlight, her skin seemed to be exuding a radiant glow.
It's a pity that this kind of appearance still doesn't have much appeal to Ling Xiao.
What he was more interested in was the goddess from Kunxu, Zhang Chuxi.
"When the Sword Valley opens, I will send you to Yan Xu. Then you just need to follow him."
Ling Xiao smiled, and with Wu Yue following him, Yan Xu really... couldn't escape.
Once everyone stepped into the Sword Valley, Yan Xu's worries were naturally reduced.
There will be a real burial ground for geniuses.
"oh."
A trace of undetectable disappointment flashed in Wu Yue's eyes. Ever since she was planted with a soul mark by Ling Xiao, she had vaguely guessed her fate.
But, from the bottom of her heart, she was still a little unwilling.
If she had been braver and more determined at that time and always followed Ling Xiao, would the ending have been... different?
"Okay, Sword Valley will open in one day. You can stay here on this day."
After finishing speaking, Ling Xiao said no more, turned around and walked into the room, returning directly to the realm.
At this moment, the tree whose soul had been wiped out by him
The Begonia tree had already been planted by Hua Xun in front of the Immortal Palace, and its branches and leaves were flourishing and it was full of life again.
The figures of Ye Qingchan and Naia also appeared in front of the Immortal Palace and walked slowly towards him.
"Son."
"Um."
Ling Xiao smiled, stretched out his hand to hold Ye Qingchan's jade hand, and walked towards the palace.
Naia, on the other hand, hesitated for a moment and then followed.
"Sir, I feel that Mo Lan is not simple."
Ye Qingchan's dark eyebrows were lightly clustered. Although she had only been in contact with him for a day, the mysterious aura of Mo Lan still made Ye Qingchan feel extremely uneasy.
"It's not just her. That Zhu'er may not have any fewer secrets than Mo Lan."
Ling Xiao shook his head, as if he didn't take the two of them seriously.
"That…"
"If we kill them now, we will never know who is standing behind them."
Ling Xiao's eyes were filled with demonic patterns, and neither the reincarnation of the human ancestor nor the immortal shadow that rescued Xiang Liu showed any flaws.
And if Ling Xiao wants to lure them out, he must use himself as bait.
He had already guessed Mo Lan's identity, but Zhu'er was quite mysterious.
Now that she appears in the Sword Valley... she may be related to the Xuantian Sword Master.
"I see, but Master... Qingchan doesn't want you to take any risks."
Ye Qingchan nestled in Ling Xiao's arms, with a touch of worry in her eyes.
The world is in chaos. The more times like this, the more careful you need to be.
although!!
With Ling Xiao's current strength, ordinary people from the Nine Tribulations may not be able to threaten him.
However, those powerful men who are really hidden behind the era still cannot allow them to underestimate them in the slightest.
"Um."
Ling Xiao nodded gently and gently embraced Ye Qingchan into his arms, enjoying this rare peace.
time flies!!
and
Since Xia Lin's death, many clan geniuses in this sword city are also in danger.
Today's Demon Sect has become so insane that even the princes of the Xia clan dare to kill them.
And with their strength, what can they do to compete with them?
However, since Yan Xu disappeared, Sword City has gradually returned to its former peace.
But everyone knows that after such calm, a bigger storm is brewing.
"you lose."
only!!
Compared to the depression in the city, there was no trace of nervousness on the faces of everyone in the courtyard.
Ling Xiao and Mo Lan were seen sitting opposite each other. As the chess pieces in his hand fell, rays of divine light spurted out, like a Nine Heavens Divine Sword, sweeping across the heavens and breaking all the chess pieces one by one.
"snort!!"
Mo Lan snorted coldly, with a trace of resentment evident on her pretty face.
At this time, even her hair seemed a little messy, and she didn't know how many games she had lost in a row.
"Have you always been so strong? Can't you just let me win a round? I see that you are usually very considerate and gentle to those women!!"
"Um?"
Looking at the woman in front of him with an angry expression and tight red lips, the smile on Ling Xiao's face grew stronger.
He never expected that with Mo Lan's temperament, he would have such a moment of loss of control.
"Winning or losing is normal, so why should you care?"
Ling Xiao shook his head and smiled, picked up a cup of tea on the table and took a sip.
"I think you are deliberately trying to embarrass me."
Mo Lan gritted her teeth and put away the chess pieces bitterly, "Come again!!"
"Okay, I just like your perseverance."
Ling Xiao smiled gently and let Mo Lan make his moves, but he picked up an ancient scroll and dropped it casually without even looking at the chessboard.
"You look down on me?!"
"It's boring to win like this, why don't we increase the bet?"
Ling Xiao put down the book, and an evil smile suddenly appeared on his handsome face.
