Chapter 432: Chapter 432 Dangerous Encounter in the Mountains_1

As the group continued to delve deeper into the Fulong Mountain Range, the danger kept mounting.

Before long, the second attack came.

This time, it wasn’t just a single Ice Sparrow, but a flock!

The leader of the Ice Sparrows was the Level 3 Ferocious Beast, while the rest were Level 1 and Level 2 Ice Sparrows. However, their numbers were too great, with at least a hundred of them.

Ultimately, with more than ten Martial Artists poisoned by the cold and even one dying on the spot, the group managed to kill and repel the hundreds of Ice Sparrows.

The ones that were killed were all Level 1 and Level 2 Ice Sparrows, while the leader tried to escape at the most critical moment.

But this time, it was too close to Ling Xiao.

In just a short distance of five or six meters, Ling Xiao suddenly launched a blade of qi, piercing through the Ice Sparrow’s body.

With the Ice Sparrow leader dead, the rest scattered, and the crisis was finally resolved.

"Impressive, Brother Ling, what kind of sword technique is that? It’s so formidable, to have killed the swiftly flying Ice Sparrow in one hit!"

"I heard Brother Ling is only fourteen years old, that’s terrifying. To be able to kill a Level 3 Ferocious Beast at the age of fourteen, you are much stronger than I am."

"Brother Ling, if one day you become a legendary hero, don’t forget about us brothers, alright?"

"This kid’s good, seems like someone not to be trifled with. He must have gone through a lot of real combat, otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to stay so calm under the attack of a Ferocious Beast."

"I guess he’s a disciple from some Sect."

Perhaps because the Linglong Fairy hadn’t shared her plans with these Martial Artists, so they were generous in their praise of Ling Xiao.

After all, if the Ice Sparrow had escaped and returned, it would likely have brought more Ice Sparrows, making the situation more troublesome and difficult to manage.

That is the reality of the world of Martial Artists: as long as you are strong enough, you can command the respect of others.

That’s the simple and straightforward rule of this world.

"Fairy, this is tricky, I didn’t expect this lad to earn their admiration so quickly. It’s going to be inconvenient to take action later," the Cold-faced Martial Artist frowned and communicated to the Linglong Fairy telepathically.

"Do not worry. These people are like weathervanes, having received a lot of benefits from me on normal days. With just one word from me, they will surely turn to my side immediately. Rest assured," the Linglong Fairy replied with absolute confidence.

Clearly, she had experienced such situations before, and now, more mature and formidable than ever, how could she fail?

Afterward, the Linglong Fairy continued to heal the injured and cremated the deceased Martial Artist.

Within the Fulong Mountain Range, Ferocious Beasts were too numerous. A simple burial would lead to the bodies being dug up and eaten in no time.

Therefore, cremation was the best option.

Having taken care of these matters, the group proceeded onwards, encountering attacks from Ferocious Beasts four more times.

Luckily, although people were injured in the four encounters, nobody died.

So they continued on their way, stopping and starting, having been on the move for almost half a shichen.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have arrived at our destination. Let’s set up camp first, establish a defensive perimeter, have something to eat, and recuperate a bit. The real challenge is yet to come," announced the Linglong Fairy suddenly to the crowd.

The Martial Artists were truly exhausted. Despite a shichen’s journey not being very long, the continuous battles had taken a hefty toll.

When the Martial Artists heard that the Linglong Fairy said they could rest, many instantly laid flat on the ground.

After resting for a moment, they began to fortify their surroundings, transforming it into a small defensive bastion.

Ling Xiao casually tossed a handful of Lower-grade Zhenyuan Pills into his mouth.

The True Essence lost within his body quickly recovered, and his Cultivation Level naturally improved somewhat.

"Linglong Fairy, now that you have reached your destination, I guess it’s time for us to part ways!" Ling Xiao paused to think, and then stood up to say.

He said this on purpose, mainly to see if the Linglong Fairy would let him stay. If she did, it would definitely mean there was a plot afoot.

If she didn’t, it would mean the other party had given up on dealing with him, and he could just leave.

"Young Master Ling, please wait!"

As soon as the Linglong Fairy spoke, Ling Xiao sighed helplessly. It seemed he still couldn’t avoid dealing a harsh blow.

"What? The Fairy refuses to let me go?"

Ling Xiao asked.

"Young Master Ling, please do not misunderstand. Today, I will tell you the truth. We have discovered an ancient martial artist’s cave mansion, and it’s very likely to contain Martial Arts Secret Books, pills, Divine Weapons, and even a Martial Soul Inheritance."

The Linglong Fairy said, "But the mansion is protected by an Array Formation, and we don’t want to act rashly. Since you understand Array Formations, could you perhaps lend us a hand?"

"Ancient martial artist’s cave mansion?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Xiao’s eyelids twitched.

For him, this was a great temptation indeed.

"Yes!"

"Fairy, let’s not beat around the bush. I indeed understand Array Formations, and I can break most of them, but how should we divide any discoveries?"

Ling Xiao asked directly.

"If we discover treasures, you alone will receive thirty percent, and the remaining seventy percent will be divided among us," the Linglong Fairy answered.

"That’s not bad, but others might have objections,"

Ling Xiao glanced at the surrounding martial artists.

"They won’t object, because if we do not have you, we would have to force our way into the mansion, possibly destroying everything inside, and no one would get anything,"

The Linglong Fairy explained, "Moreover, the mansion is vast, and there will definitely be no shortage of items inside. Even if some don’t get anything, I can compensate them with items of equal value."

"We’ll follow the Linglong Fairy’s lead!"

"Right, whatever the Linglong Fairy says is fine!"

"Alright then, if that’s the case, it’s a deal!"

Ling Xiao said with a smile.

He was well aware that the distribution method wouldn’t be like this after the matter was concluded.

If he hadn’t guessed wrong, he expected the Linglong Fairy wanted his life.

But Ling Xiao’s life was not so easily taken!

Whoever wanted his life would have to pay a steep price in both blood and treasure!

"Great, with Young Master Ling’s help, won’t the items inside the mansion be easily within reach?"

The Linglong Fairy breathed a sigh of relief.

She did not wish to fall out with Ling Xiao now; otherwise, who would help her open the mansion?

"You flatter me. Since that’s settled, then take me to the mansion quickly. After I finish this matter for you, I still need to go to the Thousand Ghosts Forest."

Ling Xiao said indifferently.

"I’m afraid that won’t be possible."

The Linglong Fairy looked at the sky and said, "This mansion is quite miraculous, appearing only at night, and the appearance lasts no more than half an hour, so we must wait."

"I see, so be it. Then rest for now; I’m going out for a walk."

Ling Xiao recovered quickly. He didn’t want to waste time here. Going out and finding a few Ferocious Beasts to practice on was also good.

And who knew, he might even stumble upon the mansion the Linglong Fairy mentioned, grab the treasures, and make his escape.
