Chapter 715: Chapter 715: The Death of Wan She_1

Ling Xiao held the Rainfall Sword in his hand, but he did not use it, for these four men were not worthy.

The reason he had drawn the Rainfall Sword was to guard against the Yellow Bird lying in ambush.

Puchi!

A black-gold Sword Qi flashed into existence, instantly piercing through the martial artist’s head.

Puboom!

The black-gold flames burned fiercely, turning that person’s head to ash in an instant.

Seeing Ling Xiao’s ferocity, the remaining three men were visibly stunned.

"Leave the items, and get lost!"

Ling Xiao said coldly.

"Don’t be afraid of this kid. The three of us joining forces against him, I refuse to believe we can’t kill him!"

Clearly, as the saying goes, men die for wealth, just as birds die for food. These three men lost all rationality over the Snow Feather Sword.

Ling Xiao no longer had any mercy. Since the opponents were courting death, he certainly couldn’t let those three go and allow them to leave with the Snow Feather Sword.

His right hand still clutched the Rainfall Sword, always on guard against stealth attacks from the shadows.

With a casual flick of his left hand, a sharp black Sword Qi condensed into formation.

This was the effect of merging nine Sword Qi into one. Even without using any techniques, a simple slash was enough to make it difficult for the opponent to defend.

With one thrust of the sword, the martial artist who lunged at him screamed miserably as his body suddenly caught ablaze with fierce fire and he was no longer breathing amidst the grotesque screams.

The remaining two saw what happened and cried out that it was bad news. Daring not to continue their assault, they turned and ran.

"Hmph, if you had left the treasured sword, you might have spared your lives. Now you fancifully thought to take the Snow Feather Sword with you, simply courting death!"

Hell Dragon Sword!

Ling Xiao roared, and his black-gold Sword Qi broke through the air. Astonishingly, it was one sword taking two lives, skewering the escaping duo on the black-gold Sword Qi. Moments later, they were already completely stiff in death.

And just like that, their Storage Rings inevitably ended up in Ling Xiao’s hands.

But probably because they knew of the dangers within the True Demon Forbidden Land, these fellows only had some pills to replenish energy, True Essence, and heal inside their Storage Rings, nothing particularly valuable.

Luckily, even a common Storage Ring could be worth ten thousand low-grade Spirit Stones, and selling them wasn’t a bad idea.

Of course, the key point was that the Snow Feather Sword had returned to his hands, which was indeed very satisfying.

He had, after all, cracked the ice and snow barrier and taken it with great effort. How could he agree to let someone gain it without lifting a finger?

"Truly a bunch of fools. If they had left the Snow Feather Sword behind, they could have at least preserved their lives. A mere two-tenths strength of a Half-step Celestial is hardly worth mentioning in front of me!"

Having said this, Ling Xiao suddenly pointed the Rainfall Sword he held towards a spot behind a wall and spoke coldly, "My friend, you’ve been watching from there for quite a while. Don’t you plan to come out and meet me?

"Hahaha, I didn’t expect your observational skills to be so meticulous."

The person laughed heartily as they came out from behind the wall.

"Not only are my observations meticulous, but my strength is not bad either. You’ve seen the entire fight just now, so you shouldn’t have any other motives, right?"

Ling Xiao looked at the slightly odd-looking woman before him and asked.

He naturally recognized this woman, as she was the disciple of the Jade Water Divine Palace known as "Wan She," whom Wu Xiang had previously introduced.

Wu Xiang had said that this woman was ranked seventy-nine in the last Martial Arts Festival, her strength was extremely formidable. Despite her low ranking, she was superior in her usage of the Snake Martial Spirit than all the disciples from the Beast King Palace and was one of those that should not be approached.

But now, Ling Xiao had not only approached her but also faced off against her.

"Hehe, although you’ve killed four martial artists of the same realm as you, and it seemed easy, your strength can indeed be said to be good, but in my eyes, you’re nothing."

Wan She smiled slightly and shook her head, "You gave them a chance just now, so I can also give you one. Leave the treasured sword and go, and I might spare your life."

"You killed a disciple of the Moon Hua Sect?"

Ling Xiao suddenly asked.

"That’s right, a disciple of the Transcendent Realm Fifth Layer. He begged for mercy in front of me, but I didn’t give him a chance. After all, the heads of the disciples from the Twelve Sects are quite valuable in our Jade Water Divine Palace, so I took his head off,"

Wan She pointed to the specially treated head at his waist and smiled, "If you don’t obey, you’ll end up the same."

"Is that so? Unfortunately, I’m just not fond of being pushed around!"

Ling Xiao sheathed the Snow Feather Sword and then took out the Mist Sword.

In his left hand was the Mist Sword, and in his right, the Rainfall Sword.

Facing a worthy opponent, Ling Xiao intended to test the power of the Mist Heavenly Phenomenon.

"And since you’ve killed one of our Moon Hua Sect’s disciples, there’s no chance for peace between us."

Ling Xiao added finally.

"Heh, what do you think you can do to me? Although you’re the chief core disciple of the Moon Hua Sect and have killed Bei Duanchang, I watched that battle. You merely took advantage of that fool’s weakness.

Now, I’ll give you a chance. Leave the Snow Feather Sword behind, or die!"

Wan She continued to maintain his smile.

Yet, Ling Xiao saw a hint of caution in his smile.

With Wan She’s nature, it was impossible for him to let Ling Xiao go; it was just that he dreaded Ling Xiao and therefore, rather than confront him directly, had offered such terms.

"Killing you wouldn’t take much time, no need for idle talk!"

Ling Xiao said with a faint smile.

"Sigh, I had just killed a Moon Hua Sect member and wasn’t planning on killing another from your sect so soon, but since you wish to die, I shall oblige.

You’ve probably heard of how terrible I can be. I won’t let you die outright; I’ll have my darling snakes tear off your flesh inch by inch until they gnaw you down to your white bones. You’ll certainly find it an excruciatingly heavenly death!"

Wan She’s words were chillingly sinister.

And behind her, the phantom of a Three-Headed Monster emerged.

"I’ve long heard that the Jade Water Divine Palace has connections with the Sea Race, seems it’s not just an unfounded rumor."

Ling Xiao thought to himself.

The Three-Headed Monster is a giant beast that lives at the bottom of the sea. It is said that these creatures are born with three heads and that they grow stronger with cultivation. The mightiest among them, the Nine-Headed Monster, can possess up to nine heads.

As he pondered this, Wan She had already begun her attack, channeling her True Essence.

She leaped into the air, launching her palms out, with vast True Essence forming palm imprints as large as millstones, blowing the surrounding walls to rubble.

This terrifying attack power was much more formidable than the likes of Chen Meng and Tyrant Sky Tiger.

Being capable of entering the top hundred of the previous Martial Arts Festival, Wan She’s reputation was indeed no empty boast.

"Die!"

Ling Xiao merely looked on impassively, as the Mist Sword in his hand quivered slightly, and thick mist instantly filled the entire space.

Then, a human-shaped Sword Qi moved in and out of visibility, traversing through the mist.

"Strange? Why does my neck feel chilly, my clothes should protect my neck!"

Wan She, in mid-air, suddenly felt a cool sensation on her neck and turned to look, only to see fresh blood gushing out from there.

Then the mist rapidly dispersed, and Wan She was horrified to discover that her head had been separated from her body.

Ling Xiao had already moved next to her body and picked up her Storage Ring.

That absurd and terrifying feeling nearly drove her mad.
