Tyrant Sky Martial Soul-Chapter 2305 - 2308: Sect Secrets: The Imprisoned Ling Yan
Cheng Feiying said indifferently, "In the last trial at Ghost Prison, Ling Xiao saved me, saved over a dozen disciples of Orange Immortal Mountain. His strength is beyond doubt. How could he cause us trouble?"
"That may not be the case. Last time was the steward’s trial at the Ghost Prison First Layer. This time, we’re at the Ghost Prison Second Floor.
Moreover, we have our own business; letting an outsider intervene is always inappropriate, isn’t it?"
"That’s right, we’re all Earth-grade geniuses and Yu Pin geniuses. What does this kid count for? Even if he’s a savior, we shouldn’t compromise like this, bringing along a burden. What is that about?"
Another person said.
At this moment, Cheng Feiying’s face turned extremely awkward.
Those people looked down on Ling Xiao, which meant they looked down on Cheng Feiying’s judgment, which was simply an insult to her.
Moreover, having her friend slandered and looked down upon by her own people left her feeling guilty.
"I’m sorry, Ling Xiao, I didn’t expect this to happen."
Cheng Feiying realized she had been somewhat reckless just now, lacking in thought.
"It’s not your fault. There are too many people who judge by appearance; it can’t be helped."
Ling Xiao smiled calmly and said.
Having experienced such things too many times, Ling Xiao was already indifferent; he wouldn’t get angry over something so trivial.
Getting upset is only harmful to oneself.
However, his words made the people of Orange Immortal Mountain extremely furious.
One hot-tempered burly man immediately jumped out, pointed at Ling Xiao’s nose, and cursed: "Kid, for the sake of Miss Feiying, today, you just need to crawl under my legs and I’ll let you go.
If not, I’ll beat you up and show you what’s tough."
Ling Xiao lightly laughed, walked over, suddenly made a move. With a single kick, he made this two-meter-tall burly man bend over, then he slammed both fists onto the man’s back, easily knocking the burly man to the ground, unable to move.
Then, he directly sat on top of the man and said with a smile, "Cheng Feiying is my friend, Ling Xiao’s friend, you dare insult her judgment, I can’t be polite."
This scene left many disciples of Orange Immortal Mountain astounded.
That burly man, although only middle-to-lower strength among them.
Yet Ling Xiao so easily knocked him to the ground, proving that Ling Xiao’s strength is extraordinarily terrifying.
"Now, is there still anyone saying he would be a burden?"
Cheng Feiying coldly said, "This time coming to the Ghost Prison Second Floor, although we have our tasks, with Ling Xiao joining, not only won’t it reduce combat power, it’ll increase combat power.
Moreover, the commander for this task is me, do you dare defy the order?"
She initially didn’t want to use power to suppress them; after all, they were all disciples of Orange Immortal Mountain.
But since these people didn’t take her seriously, it made her very unsatisfied. Normally a tiger doesn’t show its might, they really think she’s a sick cat?
Hearing Cheng Feiying’s words, they had a realization.
They might not fear Ling Xiao.
They might not fear Cheng Feiying.
But they absolutely cannot defy the orders of Orange Immortal Mountain, otherwise, once they leave the Ghost Prison Second Floor, they’d be dead without burial.
From then on, they didn’t make a sound, allowing Cheng Feiying to make the decision.
Yet a few people gave Ling Xiao venomous looks, clearly harboring hatred.
Ling Xiao mercilessly returned their cold murderous intent.
Frightened, those people quickly lowered their heads.
In the end, Ling Xiao is just a teenager.
Even though he has reincarnated once, the fiery spirit of youth naturally is not lacking.
Young and reckless!
If one is not arrogant when young, they will regret it when old.
"Ah, seeing you makes me think of the absolute genius of the previous generation of Eight Immortals Mountain, perhaps only he could compete with you."
Cheng Feiying and Ling Xiao walked at the front of the team, chatting happily.
"Oh? Who is that person?"
Ling Xiao actually already had the answer in his heart, but he still wanted to ask to confirm.
Cheng Feiying sighed and said, "That person’s name has already become a taboo at Eight Immortals Mountain, but I can tell you, he’s called Ling Yan!"
Sure enough, it’s him!
Ling Xiao thought to himself.
"Among the geniuses of Lower Baxian Mountain, apart from you, I really can’t see anyone who can compare to him.
Rumor has it that Ling Yan was also a disciple of Black Immortal Mountain, later promoted to Upper Eight Immortals Mountain, advancing smoothly, relying on terrifying cultivation speed, ultimately subdued the Eight Great Families and became the sect leader of Eight Immortals Mountain. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
It’s a pity that, ah, subsequent events are not worth mentioning, they are recorded in the sect’s history."
Cheng Feiying sighed and said, "Compared to Ling Yan, neither Sha Mo Yun nor Chi Ling’er are worth mentioning at all!"
"Oh? Sounds like you have great admiration for Ling Yan?"
Ling Xiao asked with a smile.
"Of course, Ling Yan can be said to be the strongest sect leader in Eight Immortals Mountain’s history.
Only he reached the Reincarnation Realm, do you think that’s powerful?"
Cheng Feiying grew more excited as she spoke, perhaps because of her trust in Ling Xiao, she spoke freely.
Continuing, "This person’s aptitude is extraordinary, probably reaching the level of an Immortal Grade genius, which is the strongest talent in Eight Immortals County City and even the whole Xuanwu Continent.
Anyway, I haven’t heard of anyone having Divine Grade aptitude.
Before reincarnation, he already reached the Life-taking Realm at fifteen!
How terrifying must that be!
At that time, in Eight Immortals Mountain, no one’s cultivation level could compare to his.
If only he didn’t wish to revolt then, being grateful for Eight Immortals Mountain’s nurturing, Eight Immortals Mountain would have had his surname long ago.
Because he alone could have destroyed the whole Eight Immortals Mountain!"
Hearing this, Ling Xiao couldn’t help but marvel.
It seems in the Ling Family of Feather Transformation Town, Ling Yan was low-key, probably to avoid being noticed by Eight Immortals Mountain.
Moreover, the token Ling Yan gave him at that time was only a regular Eight Immortals Mountain disciple’s token, without Ling Yan’s personal mark.
Back then, Ling Xiao was puzzled, thinking Ling Yan was hiding something.
Now thinking about it, Ling Yan was evidently trying to avoid causing trouble for him, hence did not do so.
It was indeed well-intentioned.
This person’s aptitude can truly be termed as an Immortal Grade genius, on par with Tianai Ba Tu and Phoenix Feiye.
"Since he already reached such cultivation, this little Eight Immortals County shouldn’t be worth staying for, right?"
Ling Xiao asked curiously.
"I don’t know specifics either, outside there’s chatter saying Ling Yan stayed behind for the Eight Great Families’ eight Magical Treasures.
Those eight Magical Treasures not only boast extremely strong effects but were also accompanied by Eight Immortals Mountain’s eight strongest Martial Arts.
It can be said that they are the foundation for Eight Immortals Mountain’s establishment."
Cheng Feiying explained.
"It’s truly laughable, with his cultivation, whatever Magical Treasures he desires, he could just seize them, would it be worth such trouble?"
Ling Xiao replied disdainfully.
"I think so too, this probably involves a big secret, alas, Ling Yan no longer has the chance to clear his name."
Cheng Feiying sighed and said.
"What happened actually?"
Ling Xiao asked curiously.
He knew Ling Yan mysteriously vanished in Feather Transformation Town, but as to exactly where he went, he was completely unaware. However, from Cheng Feiying’s words, it seemed she knew Ling Yan’s whereabouts.
