Chapter 631: Chapter 631 Island Master Kneels Down_1

The figure, resembling a mighty eagle, landed on the ground with a deafening crash, causing the entire city wall to tremble a few times.

Soon after, an army surged forward with a menacing momentum.

"Ling Xiao, aren’t you going to come out and face your death promptly? Do you really want me to annihilate the whole of Tianfeng City?"

The one standing at the forefront of the troops was probably the Whale Island Master.

This man was tall and brawny, standing at least five or six meters tall, wielding a Heaven-supporting Trident in his hand and bellowing fiercely.

"Looking for me for something?"

Perched atop the city walls, Ling Xiao looked down at the burly figure with a smile that was not quite a smile, his face showing a hint of mockery.

"You..."

Seeing Ling Xiao, the burly figure’s expression changed suddenly, and he involuntarily took two steps back.

At this moment, Ling Xiao was not concealing his cultivation level, fully displaying his initial stage strength of the Transcendent Realm Ninth Layer.

However, only those martial artists who were also in the Transcendent Realm could sense this kind of aura.

"You’re the Whale Island Master? Hmph, I thought you were someone impressive. With just a mere peak of the Transcendent Realm Eighth Layer cultivation level, you dare to cause trouble in Tianfeng City?"

Ling Xiao snorted coldly, and a powerful aura surged towards the Whale Island Master.

"Ah!"

The Whale Island Master retreated yet again, looking at Ling Xiao with horror and shouting, "Boy, your cultivation level is indeed stronger than mine, but this place is part of the Northern Han Kingdom, the territory of the Moon Hua Sect, you dare touch me, and the Moon Hua Sect will not let you off!"

"Moon Hua Sect? Don’t tell me you are a disciple of the Moon Hua Sect."

Ling Xiao had never heard of such a disciple from the Moon Hua Sect.

"Although this Island Master is not a disciple of the Moon Hua Sect, Whale Island is subordinate to the Moon Hua Sect, and we make offerings every month. If something happens to Whale Island, the Moon Hua Sect will surely send experts."

The Whale Island Master said proudly.

"This is going to be tricky."

Ling Xiao stroked his chin, originally wanting to strike with thunderous methods, and kill the invading Whale Island Master outright, but since the man was associated with the Moon Hua Sect, it wasn’t wise to act rashly.

"Hahaha, scared now, boy? I won’t make it hard for you. Just compensate with some Spirit Stones and apologize to our Whale Island, and we will call it even!"

The Whale Island Master assumed Ling Xiao seemed troubled and thought that Ling Xiao was afraid, which instantly swelled his confidence.

Nonetheless, he still feared Ling Xiao’s strength, hence his demands were not too exorbitant; they were just a way for him to save face.

"Master, he killed two of my senior brothers, just like that, it’s over?"

By his side was the young man who had blended into the Divine Sword Sect’s recruiting ceremony.

It was he who had reported the situation here to the Whale Island Master.

"Shut up!"

The Whale Island Master shouted severely.

He feared that his disciple might provoke this powerful individual before them.

After all, while others might give face to the Moon Hua Sect and not become enemies with them, there are still ruthless people out there who would dare to destroy you and then escape without a trace.

The Moon Hua Sect wouldn’t start a war over a mere subordinate sect.

"Afraid?"

Ling Xiao couldn’t help but laugh, "Since when did a subordinate sect of the Moon Hua Sect start showing disrespect towards a legitimate disciple of the Moon Hua Sect?"

"What!"

The Whale Island Master wasn’t a fool; hearing Ling Xiao’s words, he understood the implication immediately.

"Are you a disciple of the Moon Hua Sect Inner Sect?"

Ling Xiao did not explain but simply tossed out a token that gleamed in midair, inscribed with four characters—

"Core Disciple!"

Thump!

Seeing these four words, the Whale Island Master knelt on the ground, his body shaking uncontrollably.

This scene dumbfounded everyone.

To have the Whale Island Master kneel without a fight, merely with the show of a token, was too astonishing.

"I am here to participate as a Core Disciple, and I hope Senior Brother Ling will forgive my transgressions!"

Having said that, the Island Master of Whale Island looked at Ling Xiao with trembling fear, worried that Ling Xiao might suddenly strike him down.

Despite being at the Transcendent Realm Eighth Layer, if he offended a Core Disciple of the Moon Hua Sect, even one less powerful than he, his entire Whale Island could be obliterated on the spot.

A Core Disciple is not only a symbol of strength but also a symbol of power and influence!

If a Core Disciple were harmed, the Moon Hua Sect would avenge them at all costs, unless they faced insurmountable difficulties.

And he, the Island Master of Whale Island, was not yet qualified to provoke such a terrifying existence.

It was like a county magistrate facing the crown prince on a royal tour; unless they wished for death, who would dare to attract such misfortune?

"What the hell is going on here?"

"I can’t figure it out myself, but it seems the Supreme Sect Leader of the Divine Sword Sect is some incredibly powerful figure; even that great demon fears him."

"That’s so bizarre!"

"Does this mean we aren’t going to die?"

"Die my ass! By the looks of it, with the protection of the Divine Sword Sect, Tianfeng City will be safer than Yunkong City. Our Tianfeng City will become a treasured place in the future, where every inch of land is worth its weight in gold."

The citizens of Tianfeng City were naturally overjoyed.

The disciples of the Divine Sword Sect also felt an immense pride.

"Get your people out of here fast. As for you, I still have some questions. Once they’re answered, you can go."

Ling Xiao said indifferently.

"This subordinate obeys!"

The Island Master of Whale Island stood up and then waved his hand toward his followers.

The menacing disciples of Whale Island, just as they had arrived, quickly disappeared without a trace.

"Senior Brother Ling, please ask whatever you want to know."

By now, Ling Xiao had descended from the city walls and went outside the city with the Island Master of Whale Island.

"Has anything strange happened near Whale Island recently?"

Ling Xiao inquired.

"Senior Brother Ling, you’re here to complete a Sect task, right?"

The Island Master of Whale Island suddenly realized and said, "Yes, recently a strange mist area has appeared over the sea. Once someone enters, they never come out again. It’s extremely frightening. To not hide it from you, Brother, martial artists with cultivation levels similar to yours have entered and were unable to return."

"I see."

Ling Xiao nodded slightly and said.

"Senior Brother Ling, I have something to say that might displease you, but I still have to say it," the Island Master of Whale Island hesitated.

"Go ahead."

"Your cultivation level is too low. According to the level of this task, it would be best for a Half-step Celestial to undertake it. Otherwise, surviving would be impossible," the Island Master of Whale Island said.

He seemed to have some unspoken difficulties, but what he said was the truth.

Ling Xiao, being at the initial stage of the Transcendent Realm Ninth Layer, was attempting to complete a ten-star level task. This was indeed somewhat overestimating himself.

"A Half-step Celestial, huh?"

Ling Xiao smiled faintly and said, "You don’t need to worry about me. If I accepted this task, then I can complete it. Do you think the Sect’s high-ranking officials have worse judgment than you?"

"No, no, of course not!"

The Island Master of Whale Island thought about it; if the Sect had sent Ling Xiao, it meant he must have a way to complete the task.

Otherwise, there was another possibility—

Someone within the Sect wanted Ling Xiao to disappear!

But no matter which possibility it was, it wasn’t something he, such a minor figure, could interfere with. All he could do was follow orders and act accordingly.

"Then I wish Senior Brother Ling success in his endeavor!"

The Island Master of Whale Island said.
