Chapter 2511: Chapter 514: Outshining the Master: Ling Yan’s Deep-Seated Vendetta

As the wine reached a moderate level, Yue Shanɡ suddenly said very seriously, "Brother Ling, I heard from my father that in order to rescue Her Highness Moon Lady, you must become stronger as soon as possible.

And the Bull God Beast Soul in the Bull God Labyrinth must be obtained.

I will help you."

Hearing this, Ling Xiao was taken aback for a moment: "Miss Yue Shanɡ, are you sure? Possessing the Bull God Beast Soul grants you direct entry as a disciple to Secret Realm Academy.

Are you really prepared to give it up?"

Yue Shanɡ smiled and said, "Actually, it’s not that I’m giving up, because I know I can’t obtain it.

This time for the Bull God Labyrinth competition, besides the Eight Immortals Mountain and Tianfeng Group, the Duke Yates will also get involved.

I’ve heard that among the contestants, there are martial artists at the First Transformation Yin-Yang Realm, Sixth Layer Hell cultivation, and it’s not just us at the Eight Immortals Mountain who have them, but those two forces as well.

The final competition is likely to unfold between them.

Since I don’t have a chance, I might as well fully support Brother Ling to seize it.

You must know that Her Highness Moon Lady is the founder of my Yue Clan, and you are also my savior."

After listening to Yue Shanɡ’s words, Ling Xiao felt a surge of emotions.

In a sect, there are shameless people like An Yexing, An Hua, Jian Kun.

Naturally, there are also righteous and loyal people like Heiye Wuxing and the Yue Clan.

He, Ling Xiao, was quite fortunate, even though he offended many people, he also met many.

"Miss Yue, I won’t monopolize the benefits. I believe Sister Ruo Xian would make the same choice as you.

So, I only want the Bull God Beast Soul, the remaining benefits are all yours and hers. I, Ling Xiao, always keep my word."

He did not ask Lin Ruoxian, but there was no need; he already knew what choice she would make.

"Young Master Ling is quite a friend, but you must not think this matter too simple.

Even if the three of you join forces, seizing the final Bull God Beast Soul is extremely difficult."

The Moon Clan Chief suddenly frowned and said.

"I am willing to hear the Chief’s advice."

Ling Xiao cupped his hands and said.

"I’m not worthy of giving advice, but as the Chief of the Moon Clan, I do know some inside information.

Not to mention, within the Eight Immortals Mountain, you are very likely to encounter this formidable enemy, Lin Yuetian.

Lin Yuetian’s cultivation is at the late stage of the First Transformation Yin-Yang Realm, Sixth Layer Hell!

Even if the three of you combined, you’re not his match."

The Moon Clan Chief saw Ling Xiao remained silent, so he continued: "And within the Tianfeng Group, there is also someone whose strength is comparable to Lin Yuetian, his name is Chen Beixuan.

Chen Beixuan is a young heroic figure, and surprisingly, like you, he is also a rare beast warrior and possesses a peak-level beast soul at the One-star Yin-Yang Realm, Sixth Layer Hell.

In terms of strength, he might even be slightly stronger than Lin Yuetian."

"Interesting."

Ling Xiao smiled and said.

"Interesting?"

The Moon Clan Chief wondered if he had heard incorrectly.

Ling Xiao was not fearful, but said it was interesting.

That is a martial artist at the First Transformation Yin-Yang Realm, Sixth Layer Hell, and at the late stage.

"Hehe, actually, the First Transformation Yin-Yang Realm, Sixth Layer Hell is nothing much. I heard that such martial artists are everywhere in the Chen Dynasty’s Capital. If one doesn’t reach it by age twenty, they are not even considered a genius."

Ling Xiao smiled and said, "There are still twenty days until the Bull God Labyrinth competition. Who can predict what will happen during this period?

Just like eleven days ago when I fell into Mo Hai, who would have thought I could come back alive and my cultivation would reach the early stage of the First Cycle of Yin-Yang Realm, Fifth Level of Hell?"

"That is true, but if former Sect Leader Ling Yan assists you, you would be even more certain."

The Moon Clan Chief still felt uneasy, after all, a miracle is called a miracle because it is rare.

The last time Ling Xiao was able to create a miracle, it doesn’t mean he will be able to do so in the next twenty days.

If Ling Yan were around, the certainty would certainly be greater.

"Ling Yan has gone to the Imperial Capital. It is his realm, considering his cultivation level, staying in the Eight Immortals County City would be a waste of time."

Ling Xiao said.

"What!"

Upon hearing this, the Moon Clan Elder suddenly stood up, looking a bit perturbed.

"Chief, what’s wrong?"

Ling Xiao asked curiously.

The Moon Clan Chief hesitated about whether to tell Ling Xiao. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

"Chief, if we are friends, just say it, no matter what, I, Ling Xiao, can handle it."

Ling Xiao said.

"Young Master Ling, do you know why Sect Leader Ling Yan was easily defeated and branded as a traitor, forced to enter into reincarnation prematurely?"

The Moon Clan Chief asked.

"Wasn’t it because Lin Quan craved power, seeking to seize the position of Sect Leader?"

Ling Xiao paused, he always thought it was like this.

"That was part of the reason, but the real reason was that Sect Leader Ling Yan had a deep blood feud with the Chen Royal Family. It was discovered unintentionally by Lin Quan, who then informed the Chen Royal Family, leading to the tragedy."

The Moon Clan Chief sighed and said: "At that time, I was also drawn in, although I didn’t take action, I learned some secrets.

It turns out Sect Leader Ling Yan’s father was a top-ranking military marquis of the Chen Dynasty. Because of his strong capabilities and valiant battles, he earned numerous military merits.

In the many battles against the neighboring Volcano Kingdom, this Marquis always served as the commander, bringing glory to the Chen Dynasty, so much so that the Volcano Kingdom dared not venture near for years.

But Young Master Ling, you know, gaining too many military merits might make the Royal Family wary.

Especially when the ruler is narrow-minded, it becomes even more troublesome. The saying ’credit overshadowing the master’ fits perfectly.

Even though this marquis opted to retire voluntarily, intending to withdraw from the court to ensure his safety.

He didn’t realize his withdrawal instead bolstered the enemies’ malicious intents.

The entire Chen Clan, numbering thousands, was almost all charged with treason, with hundreds of the main culprits executed.

The remaining men were exiled, and women forced into becoming state prostitutes.

It was utterly tragic.

This Young Master Ling survived because he was away training, later going into hiding at the Eight Immortals County City, becoming the Sect Leader of Eight Immortals Mountain.

All to one day avenge the victims of the Chen Clan’s thousands."

"He had such a deep-seated vendetta and never told me?"

Ling Xiao asked in shock.

This was the first time he had heard of such a thing.

"Presumably, he didn’t tell you for your own good. Given your current strength, you wouldn’t be able to help, but Young Master Ling, you are a person of deep values, you wouldn’t stand idly by on such matters.

That’s why he couldn’t tell you."

The Moon Clan Chief analyzed.

"So in your judgment, did he go back for revenge?"

Ling Xiao asked.

"Even if it’s not for revenge, it is too dangerous. Staying under the enemy’s nose is like trying to skin a tiger alive."

The Moon Clan Chief said.

Ling Xiao suddenly felt anxious, but considering Ling Yan’s current cultivation level, he’s insignificant in the Imperial Capital.

What can he do?

The only thing he can do now is hope that Ling Yan doesn’t act impulsively.

After all, when the Royal City Ling Family was annihilated, Ling Yan was still young, many of those enemies might not recognize him.

With some disguise, he could still slip through undetected.

"Thank you, Moon Clan Chief, for informing me. I’m afraid I must leave now."

Ling Xiao suddenly stood up and said.
