Chapter 1069: Chapter 1069: Mu Tu Appears

Shadow Step!

In the blink of an eye, Ling Xiao vanished midair, and the huge scorpion struck at nothing.

"Petty tricks, you dare use them in front of me? You’re clueless! Get down here!"

Facing the already activated Shadow Step from Ling Xiao, Xie Li didn’t halt her attack as the massive scorpion tail swerved through the air.

Damn it!

Ling Xiao hastily swung his sword in defense.

The scorpion’s tail thrashed onto the Golden Crow Sword heavily. The terrifying force made Ling Xiao feel like his body might disintegrate instantly, uncontrollably plummeting towards the ground.

Thump!

The ground smashed into a pit several meters deep, nearly burying Ling Xiao alive in the sand.

Witnessing this scene, Xie Li couldn’t help but purse her lips in a faint smile. She quickly appeared near the pit, covered her mouth with orchid fingers, and giggled, "Little guy, now you know the consequences of a sharp tongue, don’t you? Whether you like it or not, today you’re coming back with me!"

"Go back my ass!"

Suddenly, a figure burst out from the pit, the Golden Crow Sword in hand converting black and white intertwined rays into a Light and Shadow Divine Cone, rocketing toward Xie Li, who was only a dozen meters away, much like a Saint Dynasty Red Cannon’s projectile.

Falling from the sky, although embarrassing for Ling Xiao, wasn’t enough to injure him, given his robust physique.

"You’re swearing again, but I really can’t bear to kill you!"

Facing Ling Xiao’s attack, Xie Li hardly blinked and just casually slapped with her hand.

The vigorous Light and Shadow Divine Cone was easily crushed like a droplet of water.

Not only that, but her palm wind swept across the ground, sand compacting into the form of a huge scorpion. This time, the tail slammed solidly onto Ling Xiao’s body, leaving him in a disordered mess, almost wrecked on the spot.

Yet, as he lay on the ground, Ling Xiao’s face showed a sly grin of a successful plot.

Void Shadow Crocodile!

Let’s see how you dodge this!

Indeed, Xie Li had greatly underestimated Ling Xiao.

It was only when the Void Shadow Crocodile had already opened its massive jaws that she realized something was amiss. Though she swiftly tried to evade, she was still not entirely successful; the tail behind her was bitten off with a splash of dark orchid fluid.

"I’m going to kill you!"

Violent Anger!

Xie Li was truly enraged!

A Heavenly Realm Martial Artist dared to injure her, a mighty being of the Tenth Firmament—this was absolutely unforgivable.

"Too bad it didn’t bite you to death!"

Ling Xiao helplessly sighed; the stronger the martial artist, the sharper their sense of danger.

Having used the Void Shadow Crocodile once, it wouldn’t be so easy to take effect again.

Next, unless he had Butterfly Girl enter the fray, facing Xie Li would be a dead end for him.

However, Xie Li, in the midst of her fury, suddenly calmed down, instead revealing a smile as beguiling as blossoming peach flowers.

But this smile felt a bit unnerving.

"Good! Really good! Little guy, you’re growing on me more and more. I’ll definitely take you back and then I’ll torture you thoroughly until you eventually die!"

Xie Li said smiling, not because she didn’t hate Ling Xiao, but because killing him off too easily would be letting him off too lightly.

She wanted to use her methods to torture him severely, to let him endure unbearable pain, wishing for life or death, neither of which he could achieve.

"Old fairy, I doubt you have the capability."

Ling Xiao suddenly stood up and laughed, "Perhaps soon, you might lack even the capacity to defend yourself, and you’ll have no time to bother with me."

"Little fellow, stop these futile struggles, your words mean nothing to me. In this Highly Poisonous Desert, no one can touch me."

Xie Li seemed very confident.

"Oh, is that so? What if the person was Timmerman Muto?"

Ling Xiao asked with a smile.

"What!"

Xie Li visibly feared upon hearing that name.

Timmerman Muto, the Grand Tutor of the Black Crow Empire, was said to be no less powerful than the Scorpion King. Even ten Xie Lis might not stand a chance against him.

"What’s the matter? Scared?"

Ling Xiao asked.

"Hmph, Timmerman Muto is indeed terrifying, but the Black Crow Empire has always kept the peace with our Scorpion Tribe. Why would he come here?"

Xie Li snorted coldly.

"Don’t you know? It’s said that the little Prince Jiumo Zhiyan of the Black Crow Empire has gone missing, and Muto is frantically searching for him. Normally the Black Crow Empire shows great respect for your Scorpion Tribe, but what if they find out you’ve captured their little prince? What do you think will happen?"

Ling Xiao said laughingly.

"Hehe, little fellow, instead of trying to intimidate me, you should think about how to escape."

No sooner had she said this than Xie Li’s expression suddenly changed, and she looked tensely towards the distant sky.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ling Xiao hid himself.

Escaping was definitely not an option now, the chance of being discovered by old Muto was great, but if he hid and completely cut off his breath, then Muto wouldn’t be able to find him.

A moment later, two figures quickly appeared in the sky.

One of them was indeed Timmerman Muto.

The other was the Half-step Yin-Yang Realm Expert who had always been protecting Jiumo Zhiyan.

Either of these two was much more formidable than Xie Li.

"Your name is Xie Li, right? I remember you’re one of the three Tong Lings under the Scorpion King. I’ll give you a chance to live, tell me, where is little Prince Jiumo Zhiyan?"

Muto looked at Xie Li indifferently, as if he would strike her down without a second thought.

Timmerman Muto was a ruthless Martial Artist. Within the Black Crow Empire, he was an advocate for eradicating the Scorpion Tribe.

Only Her Majesty the Queen preferred to live in peace with the Scorpion Tribe.

But today, for little Prince Jiumo Zhiyan, even if he had to slaughter the entire Scorpion Tribe, it wouldn’t matter to him.

"Timmerman Muto! Although you are extremely powerful, by invading our Scorpion Tribe’s territory and questioning me, aren’t you afraid of provoking our king and facing armed conflict with your Black Crow Empire?"

Xie Li might have feared Muto, but the Scorpion people were always proud and stubborn, one might say fiercely fearless.

Facing invaders, she would not kneel in submission.

"Armed conflict? Hahaha!"

Timmerman Muto laughed disdainfully, "You really overestimate yourselves. If it weren’t for that senile queen wanting peace, I would have wiped you out long ago. The territory of the Scorpion Tribe? Remember well, this is the land of the Black Crow Empire!"

Muto didn’t take Xie Li seriously at all. If he wasn’t looking for Jiumo Zhiyan, he would have been too lazy to waste words on Xie Li and would have killed her already.

"You’re bullying too far!"

Xie Li said through gritted teeth.

"And what if I am bullying you? I’ll give you one more chance, where exactly is the little prince? Don’t say you don’t know; I’ve already sensed the little prince’s breath!"

Timmerman Muto said coldly.

Xie Li suddenly thought of Ling Xiao.

"Could it be that kid who captured Jiumo Zhiyan?"
