Chapter 730: Chapter 730 Tian Yu Blocks the Way_1

Lan Yu’er and the others were completely unprepared, each of them was sent flying by the shockwaves that spread out.

Lan Yu’er was alright, the strongest in cultivation level, only turning slightly pale.

The others were not so fortunate, each coughing up blood, trembling nonstop, their chests extremely suffocated.

"Luo Tianyu!"

Ling Xiao remembered this person, one of the martial artists Wu Xiang had introduced before, seemingly from the Heavenly King Sect, adept in lightweight body technique, ranked sixtieth in the last Martial Arts Festival.

"Well, well, I didn’t expect you to actually recognize me, how rare indeed."

Luo Tianyu squinted at Ling Xiao and said, "Kid, you’ve got some strength to block one of my strikes with fifty percent of my power. The others are just too trashy."

"A good dog doesn’t stand in the way, you’re blocking us and attacking us, don’t tell me it’s just a coincidence?"

Ling Xiao’s death list had just gotten longer.

He was not a bloodthirsty person, but if someone wanted to kill him, whether they succeeded or not, he would not show mercy.

Luo Tianyu’s current strength was not even on par with Tang Jiu and Li Youdao, Ling Xiao was certain he could kill him without using too much effort.

However, he needed to clear up why Luo Tianyu was attacking them, whether there was someone behind the scenes.

Luo Tianyu shrugged and said, "Of course it wasn’t an accident, nor a coincidence. I attacked you guys for two reasons.

First, His Highness the Saint’s Son dislikes you!

Second, someone offered a hefty price for your heads; I’m just making some pocket money."

"Who?"

Lan Yu’er asked in confusion, "It couldn’t be Tang Jiu, could it?"

"Impossible."

Ling Xiao shook his head and said, "Tang Jiu is stronger than this guy, there’s no need to spend a fortune to hire this sort of trash. If I’m not mistaken, it’s most likely the Sword King Sect!"

His hatred for Sword King Sect had somewhat faded over these days and he hadn’t thought about exterminating them completely, after all, his revenge had been carried out.

But now, the hatred in his heart surged up once again.

He showed kindness, but not only did others not appreciate it, they even wanted him dead!

If that’s the case, the Sword King Sect shouldn’t continue to exist in this world.

"Clap, clap, clap!"

Luo Tianyu clapped his hands and said, "Pretty smart indeed. Since you guessed it, I won’t beat around the bush. The Sword King Sect gave me two million middle-grade spirit stones for your lives, plus Jian Wuji owes me a favor.

If you can offer more, I’ll help you kill them instead."

This guy was really shameless, not having a shred of professional ethics.

Even if assassins are supposed to keep their employer’s secret, this guy is not an assassin, so he couldn’t be bothered with keeping secrets.

"As expected, it’s the Sword King Sect! What a lavish amount indeed, two million middle-grade spirit stones! It’s just too bad we can’t afford it."

Ling Xiao was somewhat envious.

"Since you can’t afford it, then I have no choice but to make my move. However, I don’t like to cause too much slaughter. So here’s the deal, among you, whoever can kill Ling Xiao, I will spare their life, giving them a chance."

Luo Tianyu said with a smile.

This man was truly malicious at heart, not only wanting to kill Ling Xiao but also deliberately creating conflict, to ensure that Ling Xiao dies with his eyes open. He truly deserved to be the dog of the Saint’s Son.

However, his malicious tactics ultimately had no effect.

Nobody was going to strike at Ling Xiao.

Setting aside the feelings these people had towards Ling Xiao.

Purely in terms of strength, there wasn’t a single person who was a match for Ling Xiao, and to make a move against Ling Xiao would only hasten their death.

"Idiot! Incomparably foolish!"

Ling Xiao looked at Luo Tianyu and spoke.

"You dog-like thing, what are you saying? Enough, even if you kneel down and beg for mercy today, it’s useless. You must die!"

Luo Tianyu really hadn’t expected that Ling Xiao would dare to insult him?

Ling Xiao said indifferently, "The one who should die is you!"

Luo Tianyu’s face was inconstant and ferocious as he said, "You were lucky to escape from Tang Jiu’s hands with your lives, and yet you have the audacity to come before me and make noise. Don’t worry, I won’t kill you right away. I will crush every bone and every inch of your body, making you kneel before me and beg for mercy!"

A few hundred meters away, Chen Meng and Ao Chu were hiding behind a wall, spying on the situation here.

As for Jian Feng, he had long since disappeared.

He probably didn’t want to mix with these two.

"Senior Sister, with Luo Tianyu’s strength so formidable, he should be able to easily kill Ling Xiao, right? But, didn’t we give him too much for his commission?"

Ao Chu felt somewhat uncomfortable inside; two million middle-grade spirit stones, if all were given to him, would be enough for a long time of cultivation.

Chen Meng shook her head and said, "No, spirit stones are a small matter. Luo Tianyu is the powerful contender who ranked sixtieth in the last Martial Arts Festival. His current cultivation level has reached seven-tenths the strength of a Half-step Celestial, and because his body movement technique is outstanding, it is very easy for him to kill martial artists of the same realm.

I am not worried about whether he can kill Ling Xiao or not. What worries me is whether Ling Xiao can cause him serious harm."

"What do you mean?"

Ao Chu didn’t quite understand Chen Meng’s thoughts.

"You just said it, that’s two million middle-grade spirit stones, not a small amount. How could I willingly give that to Luo Tianyu?"

Chen Meng said coldly.

"I see now, Senior Sister. You mean, after they both sustain injuries, we take advantage of the fisherman’s profit, kill Luo Tianyu, and blame Ling Xiao, right?"

Ao Chu instantly understood.

"Exactly, that’s the idea. Ling Xiao must die, and Luo Tianyu must die too. Anyone who dares threaten our Sword King Sect must die."

Chen Meng revealed a ferocious expression.

"Senior Sister, you’re so shrewd, so ruthless!"

Ao Chu sighed inwardly, thankful that he was a disciple of Sword King Sect, otherwise, who knew how the likes of Chen Meng would scheme against him.

While one side had their plans, on the other side, the battle had already begun.

Since Ling Xiao had figured out who had sent Luo Tianyu, there was no need for him to waste more words.

The Rainfall Sword appeared in his hand, stirring the sea behind him, condensing a giant sword attached with sea water.

Sword light flickered, and terrifying sword qi surged straight towards Luo Tianyu.

For a moment, Luo Tianyu felt as though he was standing on a mountain of blades, surrounded by sharp edges everywhere, causing him to shudder all over.

Then, he heard Ling Xiao’s voice.

"Luo Tianyu, as a disciple of the Heavenly King Sect, your future was bright. It’s a pity you should not have made a move against us. The moment you did, you were destined to become a dead dog, eternally sleeping in the True Demon Forbidden Land, forever forgotten by people!"

The moment Ling Xiao made his move, he did not intend to show any mercy.

Having been in the sea for so long, he had finally mastered the second move of the Phantom Sword Technique, which he intended to test on Luo Tianyu.

Luo Tianyu wasn’t as strong as Tang Jiu, so he was the perfect subject for trial.

Because it had gathered sea water, the Rainfall Sword had grown immensely large, so much that Ling Xiao’s hands could no longer handle it.

But his body began to undergo a transformation.
