Xia Liu's words silenced the scene.

Everyone stared at him.

Completely unable to comprehend.

What on earth is happening?

Ling Duo was supposed to be Xia Liu's backing.

But now it seems Xia Liu has returned to confront Ling Duo.

"Clap clap..."

Ling Duo clapped his hands. It must be said, Xia Liu's sharpness was much greater than he had imagined.

He could analyze Ling Duo's actions so thoroughly.

And it was not far from the truth.

"How do you know my end is near?"

"When I first met you, I sensed a very intense murderous intent on you. I suppose before you arrived at the Imperial Sky Gate, you massacred more than ten cultivators."

Xia Liu thought for a moment and continued, "Considering your impending end, yet still being alive, there's only one possibility: you slaughtered those cultivators and devoured their flesh and blood!"

"Shut up! Xia Liu, do you know what you're talking about?"

Tang Ze couldn't bear it any longer.

Xia Liu was saying his Honored Master was a Bloodthirsty Demon Cultivator. How is that possible!

"Tang Ze! Don't get agitated; what he said is very true. My survival indeed relies on devouring their flesh and blood."

"Ah! Honored Master, you!"

Tang Ze immediately lost his composure!

It was true!

After Ling Duo's confession, everyone present felt a chill in their bones.

A Golden Core Stage expert publicly revealed his secret.

There could only be one result: no one at the scene would be left alive!

Except for Bai Xiao, everyone glared angrily at Xia Liu.

Why did this guy reveal Ling Duo's secret!

Why did they have to be at the scene!

Couldn't he have confronted Ling Duo in private?

"Haha! Over the past three years, I have indeed devoured many cultivators' flesh and blood, but I feel no guilt because they were all ants. For a strong person to extend their life, what's the harm in killing a few ants? Being devoured by me was their honor!"

"Tsk tsk! To speak of evil so openly, you have no shame!"

Xia Liu cursed angrily.

"No shame? Talk to me about shame when your life isn't at stake?"

Ling Duo laughed.

In this world where the strong prey on the weak, who did Xia Liu think he was?

"Your Prajna Holy Energy is my target this time. Being devoured by me is your fortune accumulated in past lives. Many people would be envious of you."

Xia Liu didn't speak; Ling Duo had succumbed to evil.

Lost his mind.

If he continued to stay, who knows how many more cultivators would be devoured by him.

"Before this goes further, I must thank you."

"You do have to thank me, because with my existence, the Hundred Victories Hall has developed to this extent. But it doesn't matter, once I devour your Prajna Holy Energy and flesh, no one here should be left alive."

"Honored Master! You can't do this!"

Tang Ze wailed.

"Elder Ling Duo! We can help you devour him, please spare us."

"Yes, Elder Ling Duo! Our flesh is old and tough, not worth much."

"Elder Ling Duo, please show mercy."

Sun Yuan and others cupped their fists one after another.

They didn't want to die such a disgraceful death.

Especially not because of an enemy!

At this moment, if given the chance, they would surely crush Xia Liu's bones.

If not for him, they wouldn't be in such a plight.

"No one will leave alive! No one!"

Ling Duo's words sealed everyone's fate.

Now that they knew his secret, how could they possibly survive?

The crowd was silent.

Facing a Golden Core Mid-Stage powerhouse, they didn't even have a chance to strike.

Perhaps they could only wait for death.

"Haha! Isn't it ironic? Helping the demon leader to besiege Xia Liu?"

Bai Xiao couldn't help but laugh.

These people, even at this moment, could entertain such thoughts.

Indeed, they were still the people he knew.

"Bai Xiao! If not for him, we wouldn't be in this situation. Even if I die, I want to kill you first!"

Sun Yuan roared.

His words undoubtedly aroused the crowd's anger.

Immediately, the many elders surrounding Sun Yuan, circulated their energy, intending to kill Bai Xiao on the spot.

Just before they acted, a burst of laughter came from Xia Liu's mouth.

"Haha! Old Ling Duo, do you really think you've got everything under control?"

"Oh? What more can you do, little guy? Confront me with your Foundation Establishment Cultivation?"

Ling Duo laughed.

Xia Liu was simply naive!

"It might be something of a long shot to kill you, but it's not impossible."

"Ha! That I'm a bit interested in."

Ling Duo extended his hand, looking disdainfully at Xia Liu: "Come, let me see the power of Foundation Establishment."

"That depends on if you're still alive afterward."

Xia Liu's lips slightly curled, exuding a mysterious aura.

"Hmm?"

Ling Duo suddenly focused his attention on ten mysterious figures shrouded in black robes.

He suddenly sensed an aura not weaker than the Foundation Establishment Stage emanating violently from one of the black-robed individuals.

"Good Friend Xia, you are indeed outstanding. No matter where you are, people always have intentions for you."

Chen Yan sighed.

"There's no way around it; there's always someone naive enough to harm me."

Xia Liu shook his head helplessly. He couldn't even remember how many people like Ling Duo have had their eyes on him.

"Chen Beixuan is a Golden Core Mid-Stage, and so is the one in front. Last time I didn't get to act, this time Good Friend Xia shouldn't take it away, right?"

Chen Yan said bitterly.

"Haha, if the senior is interested, then I must trouble you."

As everyone pondered Xia Liu and Chen Yan's conversation,

Chen Yan and the other nine cultivators of Chen Kingdom removed their black robes.

At the same time, their internal aura surged like ocean waves.

Bang!

The aura of ten Golden Core Stage cultivators erupted.

Causing countless present to shudder.

"Golden Core Stage cultivators!"

"Ten Golden Core Stage experts!"

Sun Yuan and others pointed at Chen Yan, speaking with trembling voices.

Tang Ze and Bai Xiao were also shocked.

Who would have thought Xia Liu would bring back ten Golden Core Stage experts!

Moreover, listening to Xia Liu and Chen Yan's conversation,

they seemed to be friends!

Facing ten Golden Core Stage cultivators.

Even Ling Duo's expression turned somewhat unsightly.

But he could still remain calm because he sensed Chen Yan and the others' specific cultivation levels.

Only Golden Core Early Stage.

"Gentlemen, do you really intend to muddy these waters?"

Ling Duo said expressionlessly.

"My friend, Good Friend Xia's kindness to me is immense, I could even entrust my life to him. What do you think?"

Chen Yan said.

"Very well! Very well! I don't know which formidable power you're from, but if you dare ruin my plans, you must be prepared for the extermination of your nine generations!"

"Haha! Trying to scare me? I am Chen Yan, the master of Chen Kingdom from the Golden Capital District. Let me see the capabilities of a Golden Core Mid-Stage!"

With a hearty laugh, Chen Yan suddenly increased his strength, and a force strong enough to crush False Elixir Stage cultivators burst forth.

Upon seeing this, Ling Duo raised his hand, and unmatched spiritual power surged from his dantian, forming a Gang Shield to block the force entirely.
