From Ling Xiao's battle, no one would think that he was just a mid-level profound practitioner. But on the surface, it seemed that he was indeed just a mid-level profound practitioner. This was truly unfathomable.
Only Ling Xiao himself was aware of this situation. Leaping levels to kill someone wasn't anything strange to him; who asked him to be an awesome transmigrator?
"Isn't that young man the Lan family's young master?
I heard that he's already broken through to the Mystic Knight realm. His attacks are indeed extraordinary. "Someone recognized Lan Kuangsheng as soon as he appeared.
"If a Mystic Knight takes action, even if this kid had nine lives, it wouldn't be enough."
"That's not necessarily true. He easily killed two high level profound practitioners, his strength cannot be underestimated."
"No matter what, this kid won't be able to escape death. Daring to cause trouble in the Li family's territory, he must be tired of living."
The guests of the Intoxicated Fragrance Pavilion discussed incessantly.
In the main hall, Lan Kuangsheng saw that Ling Xiao had actually been forced back by a single move and couldn't help but feel confident. He wanted to capture this arrogant kid in front of Li Qingqing in order to obtain her approval.
"Kid, if you surrender now, I can let you suffer less." Lan Kuangsheng held one hand behind his back and opened his white fan with the other, thinking that he was at ease.
"Hehe, I've seen many shameless people like you, but in the end, they were all beaten like dogs begging for mercy by me." Ling Xiao smiled faintly as he focused his attention on defense.
This was his first time fighting against someone at the Mystic Knight realm, and he knew that the Mystic Knight realm's ability to release their profound energy was not to be underestimated. Even though his Vajra Five Transformations Technique had some effect, it was better to be safe than sorry.
"Bastard, how dare you!" Lan Kuangsheng's anger turned into anger as he stomped his foot and pounced towards Ling Xiao like a leopard. His eyes didn't hide his killing intent at all.
"Flower Fan Blade!" The white fan fluttered in succession, and several cyan colored fan shadows slashed towards Ling Xiao like sharp blades.
This was a powerful move that was unique to Mystic Knight rank. It was definitely not an illusory move that a high level profound practitioner specially condensed into form. Instead, it was an attack that was activated using one's own attribute.
Ling Xiao revealed a disdainful smile as he activated the Cloud Phantom Shadow, instantly dodging Lan Kuangsheng's attack. At the same time, the Blue Crystal Sword stabbed eight times towards Lan Kuangsheng's side, infused with his strongest Xuan Qi, wanting to reverse the situation.
If it was an ordinary profound practitioner, they would've been intimidated by this move of Lan Kuangsheng's and wouldn't dare to counterattack. However, Ling Xiao wasn't unfamiliar with the powerful moves of the Mystic Knight rank. After half a month of being attacked by five Mystic Knights of different attributes, he could be considered to have a bit of understanding towards the attacking methods of the Mystic Knight rank. That was why he was able to easily dodge and counterattack.
Lan Kuangsheng didn't expect Ling Xiao's reaction to be so fast, but he wasn't a weakling either. Spinning his white fan, he blocked eight of Ling Xiao's sword strikes.
"Ding … ding …" Sparks flew everywhere.
"Fan Butterfly Frenzy" Lan Kuangsheng not only blocked Ling Xiao's attack, he also took the opportunity to counterattack. His white fan waved out green butterflies that looked like they had come to life. It looked extremely beautiful, but its power wasn't weak.
Even though Ling Xiao's speed was unparalleled, he still had times where he was at a disadvantage. He had still underestimated the attacking methods of the Mystic Knight rank.
"Boom … Boom …" Several green butterflies fiercely collided with Ling Xiao's body, sending him flying several meters away and knocking over many of the chairs in the hall.
"Young Master!" Bai Yuxi cried out in alarm and hurriedly rushed towards Ling Xiao.
"The battle is over. The power of the Mystic Knight is indeed terrifying."
"Exactly, that guy is dead for sure. I thought he had some skills, but I didn't expect him to die just like that. How boring."
"I really don't know if that guy is retarded, sacrificing his life for a woman. How despicable. Haven't you heard of the phrase 'femme fatale'? I still prefer the romantic life of the Intoxicated Fragrance Brothel. I won't look for trouble for a mere lowly servant."
… …
Upstairs, Lone Eagle, Lone Wolf, and Murong Gu only quietly watched the show and did not make a move. This was the Li family's territory, and if something happened here, there would naturally be someone to resolve it.
When everyone knew that Ling Xiao was dead for sure, only Lone Eagle and Lone Wolf kept staring in Ling Xiao's direction. Their eyes were filled with doubt.
Bai Yuxi came to Ling Xiao's side, and her entire heart sank. She threw herself onto Ling Xiao's body and cried, "Young Master, don't die, I don't want you to die, hurry up and wake up!"
If Ling Xiao died for her, she would not live alone. This was what she was thinking at this moment.
"Don't worry, a mere low-level Mystic Knight doesn't have the ability to kill me. Moreover, how could I bear to part with my Xixi?" Ling Xiao opened his eyes and slowly crawled up from the ground as he joked.
Looking at the mischievous smile on Ling Xiao's face, everyone was dumbfounded. A low-level Mystic Knight's all-out attack, and yet he was still able to crawl up unscathed. This was too unbelievable.
It seemed that a mid-level Mystic Knight would probably be injured by a low-level Mystic Knight's all-out attack, but why was this mid-level Mystic Knight like an unkillable cockroach? He was actually completely fine. No one would believe this if they told others.
Lan Kuangsheng was stunned for a moment, and he could not accept the reality as he roared, "You're actually fine?
This is impossible! "
Ling Xiao pushed Bai Yuxi to the side, cracked his neck, and laughed, "You want to take your father's life with this little trick of yours? Maybe in your next life."
Ling Xiao laughed and took the opportunity to swing the Blue Crystal Sword in his hand. The sword light was dazzling.
"Sword Scar"!
Lan Kuangsheng had already seen this move of Ling Xiao's. Although he did not immediately see the flaw, he was already prepared for it. The white fan in his hand spun, and the green halo gradually grew larger, forming a large green shield that blocked Ling Xiao's sword light.
However, he did not expect that this move of Ling Xiao's was just a distraction. He had already circled to Lan Kuangsheng's side and activated his Wind God Kick.
"Not good!" Lan Kuangsheng sensed Ling Xiao's strange movements and immediately cried out, but it was too late.
The "Grass in the Wind" footsteps were like blades, densely packed together as they landed on Lan Kuangsheng's waist.
Pfft pfft!
Lan Kuangsheng was sent flying like a broken zither, and a mouthful of blood sprayed out.
"I want you to die without a complete corpse!" Lan Kuangsheng barely managed to keep himself from collapsing. Wiping away the blood at the corner of his mouth, his handsome face turned malevolent and terrifying. He closed the white fan in his hand and shouted, "Fan Snaps Flower Bones!"
Instantly, the ribs of the low-grade second-grade fan in Lan Kuangsheng's hand grew longer, revealing the sharp blades hidden within. The strangest thing was that the blades flew out of the fan, and not only that, another row of blades flew out.
There was actually a hidden universe within the fan!
Rows upon rows of sharp blades flew towards Ling Xiao at a frightening speed. Moreover, they were so unexpected that even Ling Xiao didn't expect them to come at him.
"If you want to die earlier, I'll grant your wish." Ling Xiao laughed coldly, and the tattered cloak on his back trembled as it flew towards the blades.
Ling Xiao had actually used the "Cloaking Clouds Engraved Moon" move to defend.
Following that, the Silver Ghost Blood Blade on Ling Xiao's back was finally unsheathed.
The bloodthirsty glint in his eyes was sinister to the extreme. The silvery light was like a rainbow as it drew a semicircle in the air. An incomparably powerful sword light slashed down towards Lan Kuangsheng's face.
Lan Kuangsheng's heart turned cold. How could he have imagined that not only would Ling Xiao block his sneak attack, but he would also use such a powerful and ruthless move to counter it? That blade shadow caused a sense of dread to well up in his heart, and he raised the white fan in his hand to meet it.
"Ding Dang!"
The white fan was cut apart by the Silver Ghost Blood Blade, but the blade's momentum was still unstoppable!
"No!" Lan Kuangsheng roared in horror, but the result was still unchangeable.
"Pu!"
Lan Kuangsheng was actually split into two halves, and a putrid stench of blood filled the air.
The scene was terrifying to the extreme, and many of the more cowardly ones vomited on the spot.
Li Qingqing's face was pale to the extreme, and she clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug into her flesh. Her heart felt as if it was being cut by a knife.
Although she had never expressed her acceptance of Lan Kuangsheng, her heart was already leaning towards him.
Whether it was in terms of appearance or strength, Lan Kuangsheng was a very good choice among the younger generation. To be able to break through to the Mystic Realm at the age of twenty-five, he could be considered to be an extraordinary talent in Meteor City.
She had originally planned to whet Lan Kuangsheng's appetite because she knew that the easier it was for a man to obtain something, the less he would cherish it. That was why she had always maintained a distant relationship with him.
Now that Lan Kuangsheng had stood up for her, he was actually killed by an unknown brat. How could she not be angry?
But what was the point of being angry? There were no experts from the Li family guarding this place. Two mid-level profound practitioners and a high-level profound practitioner had been killed. Even a low-level profound practitioner like Lan Kuangsheng had died at the hands of the enemy.
She was only a mid-level profound practitioner, so how could she deal with the person in front of her?
At this moment, she was both afraid and angry, but reason told her that she had to escape, otherwise she would definitely die.
Although Ling Xiao had killed Lan Kuangsheng, his body's Xuan Qi had already been used up, and his meridians were starting to ache. Fortunately, he was able to suppress it and didn't suffer from the backlash like when he used "Sword Scar" at the Martial Disciple realm. Besides his own strength increasing, it was also related to his recent strengthening of his body.
Ling Xiao praised in his heart, "I haven't reached the Mystic Realm yet, so I can't release my Xuan energy. Forcing myself to use the Six Secrets of the Unyielding Snow still isn't enough."
"Six Secrets of the Unyielding Snow" was the Nie Family's inherited sword technique. Just now, Ling Xiao had used the first form, "Cold Glance", which was an extremely overbearing move.
If combined with ice Xuan energy, the power would be even more terrifying.
In his previous life, Ling Xiao had already thoroughly studied the Wind and Cloud Duo's martial arts. Now, he was able to use it without the slightest bit of awkwardness. It was just that his own strength wasn't strong enough to use it as he pleased.
"Bitch upstairs, are you going to come down yourself, or do you want me … to personally invite you down?" Ling Xiao raised his head and spoke to Li Qingqing.
"Damned slave, you actually dare to scold me? Don't you know that I'm from the Li Family? And since you killed Kuangsheng, the Lan Family definitely won't let you off. You better pray for your own good." Li Qingqing was so angry that her face turned green, but she knew that she wasn't his opponent, so she couldn't help but bring up her family again to boost her courage.
"The Li Family and the Lan Family?
If I was afraid, I wouldn't have killed people here. Stupid woman, I'll count to three. If you don't come down and kowtow to my woman, then next year today will be the anniversary of your death, "Ling Xiao said coldly to Li Qingqing.
He hadn't even started counting when someone jumped out to provoke him.
"You're already an arrow at the end of its flight. Today, I'll kill you for the Li Family, you arrogant brat."
