Tyrant Sky Martial Soul-Chapter 2197 - 2200: Me? The King of Thieves?

"No, at this moment, I need to refine some Cave Heaven Spirit Pills, and they must be more advanced in order to help me break through."

After checking the time, Ling Xiao quietly stepped out of his house, planning to make a trip to Eight Immortals County City to purchase materials for refining Cave Heaven Spirit Pills.

"Stop right there!"

Just as Ling Xiao stepped out the door, he was halted by a voice.

He frowned a bit and recognized it as his third senior brother, Feng Yu.

"I wonder what instruction Brother Feng Yu has for me today?"

Ling Xiao greeted with a slight bow.

"Run a quick errand for me, make a trip to Eight Immortals County City and buy some 'Dragon Brew' from Tianlong Trade Company."

Feng Yu said.

Ling Xiao thought to himself, since it's on the way anyway, there's no need to argue with this person, so he nodded and said, "No problem, what about the money?"

"Money? Get it straight, you need money to buy wine for Senior Brother? Hurry up, you have one shichen to return, or I won't be polite."

Feng Yu said coldly.

"Understood."

Ling Xiao coldly chuckled to himself, the wine I buy, you dare drink?

No one ever told you that it's better to offend Yama than an Alchemist?

He agreed readily, quickened his pace off the mountain, and then hastily left.

If he doesn't use the teleportation array, the journey from here to Eight Immortals County City would take a long time and is extremely dangerous.

However, for Ling Xiao, this wasn't a problem at all.

Ling Xiao had already crafted a two-way teleportation array to Eight Immortals County City.

It was modeled after the one used by Lin Mao.

Something like this level of teleportation array, others couldn't manage it, but it was effortless for him.

Seeing that there was no one around, Ling Xiao opened the teleportation array in a very secluded spot and was directly teleported to East Pass.

Then he entered Eight Immortals County City from East Pass.

Worried that the Shaw Clan and Zhou Clan might cause trouble, he first disguised himself. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

And then proceeded to Tianlong Trade Company.

The scale of Tianlong Trade Company in Eight Immortals County City has already caught up with the former Divine Phoenix Imperial City.

Ling Xiao stepped into the company, without exposing his identity or using his VIP card.

He went straight to the place selling medicinal materials and picked out the ingredients needed for refining Cave Heaven Spirit Pills.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard someone exclaim "Catch the thief!"

Even a thief dares to steal from Tianlong Trade Company?

Ling Xiao was a bit surprised, yet the guards at Tianlong Trade Company weren't weak, so he didn't need to intervene.

The thief was quickly caught.

Ling Xiao couldn't be bothered to watch such mundane excitement, and chose to leave.

But at this moment, the thief suddenly pointed at him and shouted, "Boss, don't leave me here alone!"

Because of this shout, Ling Xiao found himself surrounded.

Tianlong Trade Company really lives up to its name, even the ordinary guards are Martial Artists with half-step Yin-Yang Realm cultivation.

Ling Xiao couldn't help but frown, just about to explain, suddenly a rather arrogant female voice rose.

"Humph, I just knew you were no good, sneaky, dressed poorly, and loitering around the medicine shop for so long.

Turns out you're in cahoots with this petty thief."

He glanced at this arrogant face.

Very unfamiliar, looks about twenty years old, dressed plainly, clearly just a staff member of Tianlong Trade Company.

"Miss, words can hurt, without solid evidence, it's best not to jump to conclusions."

Ling Xiao looked coldly at the woman and said.

The woman's beautiful face looked rather disgusting at that moment.

"No solid evidence? You've already been betrayed by your own people, yet you're still posturing? Arrest him for me, daring to cause trouble at Tianlong Trade Company, you truly don't want to survive."

The woman waved her hand and said coldly.

At that moment, Ling Xiao saw the thief's eyes gleaming with a smug smile.

He suddenly realized that from the moment he entered Eight Immortals County City, he was probably recognized and that this was all a setup, someone intentionally framing him.

Was it the Shaw Clan?

Or the Zhou Clan?

It didn't matter who, he was well aware that he had been schemed against.

But Ling Xiao was not someone to sit and wait, especially these guards, the strongest were only half-step Yin-Yang Realm, Ten Layer Power Martial Artists.

How could he possibly be afraid?

As more than a dozen people came toward him, Ling Xiao stepped like a moon-treading meteor and instantly disappeared.

When he reappeared, he was already beside the thief.

He grabbed the thief and asked coldly, "Who told you to set me up? Speak out, and I can make your death a little easier, otherwise, I promise your whole family will suffer!"

"Hehe, boss, why don't you recognize me? We've been together for over ten years."

The thief giggled.

"Snap!"

"Ah~~!"

Exclamations echoed through Tianlong Trade Company.

Because the thief's right arm was cleanly dismantled by Ling Xiao, the thief screamed incessantly, cold sweat streaming down his forehead.

Ling Xiao didn't waste words with him: "Still the same question, answer me."

"Boss, I, ah!"

This time, before the thief finished his sentence, another arm fell off.

"Do you know what it means to be skinned alive? Don't provoke me, or no amount of money can buy back your life!"

Ling Xiao's chilling voice reached the thief's ears, the terrifying killing intent permeated the void.

The thief finally lost control.

"It's Zhou."

As he spoke, suddenly a silver needle shot from the crowd.

However, it did not hit the thief, being blocked by Ling Xiao's sword, pinned to a nearby pillar.

"It's Zhou Chui, that bastard, he actually wanted me dead to silence me, that little punk."

The thief finally yelled.

"Smart choice, these two arms are yours, fix them promptly, and they'll recover. Leave."

Ling Xiao coldly eyed the thief.

The thief rapidly slipped out of the crowd.

Ling Xiao turned back to the woman from Tianlong Trade Company, "Did you hear what he said?"

"How would I know if you two aren't colluding?"

The woman continued to provoke.

"Fine, you say I stole from Tianlong Trade Company, present the evidence, otherwise, you witnessed my methods, I promise you'll pay a price."

Ling Xiao looked coldly at the woman.

He already explained everything, the thief confessed, yet she still targeted him.

"What were you doing in the medicine shop just now?"

The woman asked.

"Has water flooded your brain? I went to the medicine shop, naturally, to buy medicine."

Ling Xiao replied calmly.

"But I saw you went to many shops selling rare medicinal materials. Those places carry very expensive items. Do you have the money to buy them?"

The woman stiffened her neck, seemingly convinced that Ling Xiao was a thief.

"Mu Zi, enough!"

Just as Ling Xiao was about to act, a middle-aged man's voice suddenly rang out.

Ling Xiao turned to look, his pupils constricted abruptly.

The cultivation of this middle-aged man was actually beyond his perception, to the extent that his Tai Chi Eye couldn't see through him, meaning his cultivation was truly terrifying.
