Chapter 352: Chapter 352 Core Makes a Move_1

Just when Ling Xiao and Jian Renwang were preparing for their exchange, within the Volcano Palace, the three disciples of Demonflame Celestial were also gathered, conspiring to avenge their master.

They dared not provoke Guanghan Celestial Venerate and Yang Dan Lin.

So they directed all of the hatred for Demonflame Celestial’s injuries at Ling Xiao!

When Ling Xiao was among the Outer Disciples, they could not lay a hand on him.

But now Ling Xiao had recklessly come to partake in the Inner Sect joint training, which was simply the best opportunity heaven could have given them.

If they missed this chance, they might have to wait until Ling Xiao was promoted to the Inner Sect, but with Ling Xiao’s talents, would such a day ever come?

Hei Suo and the others still derided Ling Xiao to this day, believing that although his current combat strength was formidable, he would ultimately fall behind them increasingly due to his inferior talent.

Demonflame Celestial originally had only two nominal disciples.

One was Hei Suo, the other was Hei Suo’s senior brother, Meng Yuan.

It was only later that Ming Tian, Xu Ying, and Wang Feng were taken as disciples.

Among them, Ming Tian and Xu Ying were the true disciples whom he had personally selected.

Yet, they lost their lives to Ling Xiao within a very short time.

Now Demonflame Celestial only had three disciples left under his wing.

The eldest disciple, Meng Yuan, although just a nominal disciple, was not weak in talent, and was the strongest in terms of strength, currently at the Transcendent Realm Seventh Heaven, and was one of the top ten Core Disciples, although ranked towards the rear.

Next was Hei Suo. This fellow’s talent wasn’t poor either; two months ago, he was still at the Transcendent Realm Third Layer, but now he had already reached the Four-level Transcendent Realm.

The youngest disciple, Ming Tian, had the most outstanding talent. Despite being the latest to begin training, his cultivation speed was shockingly fast, having already ascended to the Second Layer Peak of the Transcendent Realm in just over three months.

Besides them, Demonflame Celestial had two powerful subordinates, they were the Magma Giant Lizard Brothers who guarded the Volcano Palace.

Level 9 Fierce Beasts, they were capable of taking human form, although they retained many lizard characteristics.

Their strength was equivalent to a human Martial Artist’s Transcendent Realm Ninth Layer, more terrifying than the three disciples of Demonflame Celestial.

The older one was named Huo She, and the younger one was named Icarus Fire.

They were powerful, but they were not very intelligent and were inherently cruel.

Now, these few guys were in the Volcano Palace, on the one hand, naturally to protect Demonflame Celestial, and on the other, to discuss matters related to Ling Xiao.

They also did not know why, a few days ago, Demonflame Celestial suddenly suffered a severe injury, what should have been a recovery of one month now required a full year.

And they wasted the Sect’s given Spiritual Medicine, which was the only one—the kind that once used, is gone.

"I understand this person Ling Xiao. Back in Yunkong City, he was extremely arrogant and self-righteous. The fact that he dares to participate in the Inner Sect joint training does not surprise me in the slightest,"

Ming Tian had an indifferent smile on his face.

Back in the day, he and Ling Xiao were both disciples of Master Baiyun. He might not say he completely understood Ling Xiao, but he knew Ling Xiao’s character all too well.

He had originally looked forward to Ling Xiao’s promotion to the Inner Sect, so he could properly avenge the humiliation back in Yunkong City.

However, unexpectedly, Ling Xiao was so oblivious to danger that he rushed to his death in the Inner Sect so soon, and as an Outer Disciple at that.

"Don’t underestimate him. This kid is very tricky. Although we spread rumors that Xu Ying and Wang Feng were killed by Guanghan Celestial Venerate, we know very well that it was that kid who did it..."

Hei Suo now harbored a fear for Ling Xiao.

This fear was mainly towards Ling Xiao’s future.

He felt that Ling Xiao’s development was too rapid, and had to be curbed at all costs, or one day in the future, his end would be like Wang Feng and Xu Ying’s.

Therefore, he was eager to kill Ling Xiao.

Through various means in the Outer Sect, he tried suppression and assassination but failed at every turn and was thwarted at every step.

But now there was a chance. Ling Xiao had come to participate in the Inner Sect joint training and would certainly have to accept the tasks issued by the Inner Sect. With that, an opportunity to strike would arise.

"Hahaha, Junior Brother, you’re so useless, just an Outer Disciples, a Half-step Grandmaster scared you to this extent?"

As a Senior Brother and a core disciple of the Moon Hua Sect, Meng Yuan had always felt that Demonflame Celestial underestimated him, simply accepting him as a nominal disciple.

So, this time, he wanted to take this opportunity to let his master know that he was the most outstanding among the three disciples.

"Senior Brother, I’m not afraid of him, it’s just that this kid is indeed not easy to deal with."

Hei Suo hurriedly said.

"What about his martial arts talent?"

Meng Yuan waved his hand and asked.

"Precious Treasure Body!"

"Does he have any special attributes?"

Meng Yuan continued to inquire.

"It’s said that he’s extremely talented in alchemy."

Hei Suo thought for a moment and said, "Right, it seems like all three of his potential aspects have reached the Precious Treasure Body."

"That’s it?"

Meng Yuan looked at Hei Suo with a hint of disdain and said, "Junior Brother, could it be that ever since that kid ambushed you in Yunkong City, you’ve developed a sense of dread? When he was in the Outer Sect, it wasn’t right for me, as a Senior Brother, to intervene. But now he is courting death by participating in that Inner Sect joint training, so I will make sure he dies without a grave, avenging Junior Sister Xu Ying and Junior Brother Wang Feng!"

"Of course, what’s more important is to vent the anger for our master!"

"Even though that’s the case, still, Senior Brother, don’t blame me for not warning you, this kid can sometimes exhibit strength more terrifying than a Half-step Grandmaster. Since he was able to kill Xu Ying and Wang Feng, he can’t be too weak, and underestimating the enemy comes with a price."

Although Hei Suo agreed with what his Senior Brother said, after all, Ling Xiao was just an Outer Disciples, wasn’t he at their mercy?

Moreover, his Senior Brother was one of the top ten core disciples, with a cultivation level of Transcendent Realm Seventh Heaven!

How could Ling Xiao be of any threat?

But why did he still feel such intense unease?

"Enough, we don’t need to talk about this further. I’m going to see for myself this Ling Xiao who has scared you like a mouse to find out just who he really is!"

Meng Yuan waved his hand and turned to leave the Volcano Palace.

"Huo She! Icarus Fire! The safety of our master is in your hands. We will return shortly."

Hei Suo and Ming Tian also followed him out.

...

Inside the Inner Sect Main Hall, where the slaves resided.

Ling Xiao had already agreed on the terms of the duel with Jian Renwang.

However, Jian Renwang made another demand.

"This duel should be conducted in the spirit of fairness and justice, and I think it should take place on the Inner Sect’s challenge platform. What do you think about that, Junior Brother Ling?"

"This guy is truly ruthless, not only wanting to humiliate Senior Brother Ling but also wishing for him to lose face in front of all the Inner Sect Disciples."

With gritted teeth, Jian Xing said resentfully.

"I’ve already lost all face last time."

"Senior Brother Ling, don’t agree to it."

Lin Feng urged.

"It’s fine, let’s go to the challenge platform then. After all, if I lose, all three of us will become his slaves, doesn’t matter where we fight, right? Besides, this place doesn’t have the proper conditions for a duel."

Ling Xiao was usually quite magnanimous and kind-hearted, and this place was where the slaves lived. If he started fighting with Jian Renwang, innocent people might get hurt, and that would not be good.
