Tyrant Sky Martial Soul-Chapter 2301 - 2304: You’re Not Qualified to Protect Her!
One is the great hero who destroyed the Demon Shadow Sect and saved countless people.
The other is the genius directly recruited into the Sword Clan of Eight Immortals Mountain, becoming a person of high standing.
The return of Ling Xiao and Ling Jiaojiao has turned Yuhua Town into a sea of celebration.
The celebration has already lasted a day and night, and the townspeople seem to have no intention of stopping.
However, Ling Xiao is already preparing to set off back to Eight Immortals Mountain.
In Yuhua Town, he can command the wind and rain; no one dares to defy him because he is the strongest here.
A monkey becomes king in a place without tigers, truly boring.
What he seeks is continuous breakthroughs in martial arts, so he must constantly embrace new challenges.
He also won’t forget his mission to find the Moon Lady.
The Eternal Palace, to him now, is a mysterious and formidable place, like an ant gazing up at the sky.
To truly step into the Eternal Palace, he must become stronger!
He is still too far away now.
In the quiet of night, many people have become drunk.
Ling Xiao called Ling Yuhua and Old Black into the room, carefully instructing them. Ling Yuhua would temporarily take the position of the Ling Family Patriarch and continue managing Yuhua Town.
Then Ling Xiao and Ling Jiaojiao set off.
By the time they arrived at Eight Immortals County City, the sky was already bright.
To Ling Xiao’s surprise, Jian Liufeng was actually waiting for Ling Jiaojiao outside the city gate.
This was proof enough of how much the Sword Clan valued Ling Jiaojiao.
Standing beside Jian Liufeng was also Lin Ruoxian.
Both were renowned figures.
The simultaneous appearance of these two inevitably sparked speculation among many passers-by.
"Jian Liufeng and Lin Ruoxian showed up at the same time; are they here to welcome some esteemed person?"
When Ling Xiao and Ling Jiaojiao appeared together, the entire crowd went into an uproar.
"It’s him! It’s the hero who destroyed the Demon Shadow Sect and saved Eight Immortals County City!"
"Yes, that’s right, it’s Ling Xiao. No wonder Jian Liufeng and Lin Ruoxian appeared. None other than Ling Xiao deserves such high-level treatment."
"But what’s the story with that girl? She seems to have low strength, seemingly only at the Half-step Yin-Yang Realm."
"That’s the girl who awakened the Sword Emperor Martial Soul, right? Her name seems to be Ling Jiaojiao, she’s Ling Xiao’s sister."
"Tsk tsk, the Ling Family of Feather Transformation Town has truly made a name for themselves this time, impressive."
There were both praises and discouraging remarks.
"Hmph, the higher the tree, the more it’s exposed to the wind. Ling Xiao might face some trouble, overly flamboyant people often don’t last long."
"Exactly, and there’s also Ling Jiaojiao. With mere Half-step Yin-Yang Realm Cultivation, entering Eight Immortals County City is nothing, and entering Eight Immortals Mountain is even more insignificant. She might not stand out for long and blend into the crowd."
No matter what others said or did, Ling Xiao and Ling Jiaojiao didn’t pay much attention.
Ling Xiao was already accustomed to being scrutinized by people; he had experienced his moments of glory on the Heavenly Dragon Continent, Divine Phoenix Continent, and White Tiger Continent.
He had been in the public eye before.
This scene was nothing to him.
Ling Jiaojiao was a bit nervous, but following Ling Xiao, she gradually calmed down.
Amidst the crowd’s discussions, Jian Liufeng activated the teleportation array leading to the Upper Eight Immortals Mountain.
"I’m sorry, Ling Xiao, you’re not a disciple of Upper Eight Immortals Mountain yet, so you’re not eligible to enter there."
Jian Liufeng said indifferently, looking at Ling Xiao.
"I know, but talking to my sister won’t be a problem, right?"
Ling Jiaojiao, unlike Ling Xiao, was not a Reincarnation Warrior, so Ling Xiao was worried she might be too naive.
So he pulled her aside and specially reminded her: "You’ve been chosen exceptionally by the Sword Clan, which is bound to attract much jealousy, especially the Sword Emperor Martial Soul you’ve awakened, which is something many covet.
Entering the Sword Clan does not mean everything will be smooth sailing; you must be careful in all matters.
If you encounter trouble, remember to come to me, no matter who the enemy is. You can tell me.
No one can bully my relatives in the Ling Family!"
Ling Jiaojiao knew that although she was nominally Ling Xiao’s sister, she was nothing compared to Ling Xiao’s experience.
What Ling Xiao said to her would never be wrong.
"Rest assured, you’re the only relative I have at Eight Immortals Mountain. Who else would I go to if not you?"
Ling Jiaojiao nodded and then stepped into the teleportation array.
"Incomprehensible!"
After Ling Jiaojiao left, Jian Liufeng standing nearby suddenly sneered: "Ling Xiao, don’t be so self-important!
After joining the Sword Clan, the enemies Ling Jiaojiao will face, each one will be stronger than you, and none you can afford to provoke.
You just need to work hard and not embarrass your sister.
As for Jiaojiao’s safety, naturally, it’s my responsibility, Jian Liufeng’s. It’s not your place to meddle!
And you can’t meddle anyway!"
After speaking, he left too.
Looking at the teleportation array now closed, a hint of a cold smile appeared at the corner of Ling Xiao’s mouth.
"Just the Upper Eight Immortals Mountain, and there’s something I, Ling Xiao, can’t handle? Jian Liufeng, let’s wait and see."
"Ling Xiao, although Jian Liufeng’s words were harsh, honestly, your current strength is definitely not enough to protect that girl."
Lin Ruoxian reminded him.
Presumably worried that Ling Xiao might become arrogant and complacent because of the Demon Shadow Sect incident, Lin Ruoxian’s words were indeed well-intentioned.
"Don’t worry, Steward Ruo Xian, I understand better than anyone what strength means."
Ling Xiao smiled and said: "Without strength, any solemn promise becomes a joke and arrogance.
But with strength, any joke becomes a wise saying!"
"Seems like I was overthinking it. You’re more determined and calm than I imagined."
Lin Ruoxian chuckled bitterly.
"Steward Ruo Xian seems to have forgotten that I am a Reincarnation Warrior. What I’ve experienced, you might absolutely be unable to imagine.
So I desire strength more than anyone!
Today Jian Liufeng looks down on me; in the future, he won’t even qualify to flatter me."
Ling Xiao said coldly.
"I am becoming truly curious about your past now."
Lin Ruoxian looked at Ling Xiao, becoming somewhat distracted, and a blush appeared on her pretty face.
The occasional release of Tyrant aura from Ling Xiao’s body was truly mesmerizing to her.
"You’d better not be curious about my past; it’s deadly." Ling Xiao suddenly looked at Lin Ruoxian.
His expression turned extremely cold.
Then he laughed again and said: "Just kidding, Steward Ruo Xian has been kind to me, and I certainly won’t do such a thing.
But if it’s someone else, I wouldn’t be polite. If possible, when my cultivation restores to the Reincarnation Realm, I’ll personally tell you about my past."
"You really scared me."
Lin Ruoxian felt that her heart was still pounding.
The terrifying killing aura that Ling Xiao released at that moment even frightened her, someone much stronger in cultivation as an Upper Eight Immortals Mountain disciple.
This young man’s past might genuinely be dreadful, better not touched lightly.
