Chapter C557 Meet Nangong Man again
"Rest assured!" I'm free to do what I want! Hehe, Sky Fire, I, Ling Xiao, have finally come! " As Ling Xiao looked forward, he could not hold back the excitement and anticipation in his heart!
It had been a long time since Ling Xiao obtained the news about the Heaven Flame. At that time, Ling Xiao was still a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, and from then on, Ling Xiao had decided to look for and refine the Heaven Flame. Now, Ling Xiao finally had the ability to do so!
Ling Xiao was currently a cultivator of middle stage of Dao comprehension, and his strength was comparable to a saint. Compared to the time in Building Foundation Period, he was undoubtedly many times stronger, and this was also the result of Ling Xiao's own hard work!
From the moment he had obtained the first fragment of the Sky Fire, Ling Xiao had already begun preparing for the Heaven Flame. Furthermore, he had obtained the method to refine the Heaven Fire Source Pill from Luo Tianyu's hands, the method to refine the Heaven Flame, and the various martial skills related to the Heaven Flame.
All this while, Ling Xiao had owned Yin Yang Grass, and after that, he had only been searching for Flaming Draconic Fruit, Ganoderma lucidum and Divine Vine of Nine Suns. With so much experience, Ling Xiao felt like it was all happening right in front of his eyes!
"Sky fire. An existence that can cause countless people to go crazy. Even some of the top experts are envious of it. I will make good use of this opportunity this time around!" Ling Xiao looked in front of him at the moment, and made up his mind on the inside!
"Ling Xiao, let's go take a look! There seems to be quite a number of people there! " After the three of them flew inside for a long time, they saw that not far away, there were many cultivators gathered together. It was unknown just what they were discussing.
"Hehe, not bad. Besides, there's a familiar person there!" Ling Xiao said while beaming.
"Oh? I wonder which one? Could it be Nangong Man? " Being an acquaintance from the Southern Barbarian Province, Nangong Man was definitely a very familiar person!
"Hehe, not bad. That's him. However, he doesn't seem to be having a good time right now!" Let's go and take a look! " Ling Xiao said with a smile.
The three of them quickly flew in the direction of Nangong Man!
Not far away, a few dozen cultivators were gathered together, but it was very obvious that these cultivators were divided into two camps. One of them had Nangong Man as the core, while the other was dressed in strange attire!
"Nangong Man, hehe, I never thought that I would meet you two here! "Hur hur, it's really as though we meet again in life!" The man in front spoke to Nangong Man.
"Hmph, Wu Zhong, others might not know about you, but could it be that I do not know about you as well?! Nangong Man said in an extremely displeased tone.
"Hey!" Haha, Nangong Man, when did you become a turtle that was hiding its head? Didn't your Nangong Family possess an unparalleled position in the Southern Barbarian Province? What are you worried about? " Wu Zhong explained.
"Wu Zhong, did you bring so many people with you today to reminisce about the old days?" Nangong Man said as he squinted his eyes.
After Nangong Man finished speaking, the expression in Wu Zhong's eyes changed, because Ling Xiao and the others were already here!
"Hmm? It's Ling Xiao and the rest? Why are they here too? " Nangong Man saw Ling Xiao in an instant. The time Ling Xiao beat Nangong Man up into a pig head before, had caused Nangong Man to feel an instinctive fear when he saw Ling Xiao!
But it was Wu Zhong's first time seeing him, and he did not recognize him, so when he saw Ling Xiao and the others coming over, Wu Zhong chose to be sensible and did not say much!
"Hehe, isn't this Nangong Man? What, you met an opponent too? " Ling Xiao's voice rang out within the arena.
"Ling Xiao, what are you doing here?" Nangong Man said timidly.
"Haha, in the Profound Fantasy Continent, there is no place that I, Ling Xiao, cannot go to. Nangong Man, it seems like you have met with trouble. Ling Xiao said with a smile.
"What?" You are Ling Xiao? The Ling Xiao who was ranked first in the Heaven and Earth Ranking? How could you be here? " At this time, Wu Zhong was also exceptionally shocked after hearing Ling Xiao's great name!
Ling Xiao turned his head to look at Wu Zhong. He did not know Wu Zhong, but based on his attire, Ling Xiao could guess that this youth was a Magus as well.
"Oh? I wonder who you are? " Ling Xiao asked.
"Oh!" This humble one is Wu Zhong. This humble one has long heard of Ling Xiao's great name, but this is the first time I have seen it today! " Wu Zhong didn't know much about Ling Xiao, but to be able to defeat so many geniuses and become the strongest on the Heaven Ranking, just this honor was already enough for Wu Zhong to care about!
"Ling Xiao, you came at the right time, this time, Wu Zhong and the rest tried to kill me here, but I managed to see through it, so they have not made a move yet. If you had been late, I reckon that you would not even be able to see me!" Nangong Man ran in front of Ling Xiao and said.
Nangong Man's words caused both Ling Xiao and Wu Zhong to be stunned. They did not think that Nangong Man would actually be able to put down his dazzling halo at this moment, and would instead choose to cooperate with Ling Xiao!
"Hehe, Nangong Man, do you think you can rely on Ling Xiao to escape this calamity? You are the first target we will eliminate, so since you already know about it, we will not let you live! " Wu Zhong did not finish his words immediately.
"Hmph, Wu Zhong, you shamans have allied with so many forces this time, do you think you can hide the matter of my Nangong Family from us? Now that Ling Xiao and the others know about it, are you going to talk about Ling Xiao killing them too? " Nangong Man had pulled Ling Xiao into his own camp!
Ling Xiao's words caused Wu Zhong's expression to constantly change. Ling Xiao's great name had spread throughout the entire Profound Fantasy Continent, but he and the others could only keep Nangong Man here. If they included Ling Xiao and the others, Wu Zhong would not have absolute confidence!
"Ling Xiao, I hope you do not mind this time's flood. This person is someone we must kill, if you do not wish to fall out with us, please leave this place!" After thinking for a long time, Wu Zhong finally came to a compromise!
"Young Lord, you can't! These people must die!" We are willing to pay any price! " Just as Wu Zhong had finished speaking, a few Mysterious Transformation Realm cultivators had already stood up and expressed their dissatisfaction!
Wu Zhong extended his hand to stop them, then slowly shook his head. He knew that he might not be able to defeat Ling Xiao, and that it would be hard to deal with Ling Xiao alone.
"All of you can leave. I have my own opinions on this matter!" Wu Zhong explained.
"Young master, you can't! Even if we die, we can't let them know of our plan!" It seemed like Magi had a huge conspiracy, or else they wouldn't be so desperate!
"If you take me as your Young Lord, then step down. Do you think I don't know the seriousness of this matter?" Wu Zhong commanded for them to retreat!
The few cultivators retreated unwillingly, but they kept on staring at Ling Xiao and the rest, wishing that they could kill all of them!
"Haha, all of you have said this much just to kill us?" Ling Xiao spoke up.
"Hehe, Ling Xiao, we do not have any intentions of killing you, we only have one goal, and that is to kill Nangong Man. As long as Nangong Man dies, we can let you leave this place!" Wu Zhong said gloomily.
"Wu Zhong, you don't need to waste your breath. Our Nangong Family and Ling Xiao are allies, do you think that Ling Xiao will believe your words? Moreover, why should I listen to your words, Ling Xiao? " Nangong Man said to Wu Zhong disdainfully.
Wu Zhong, Nangong Man is right, I can't possibly watch you guys kill Nangong Man in front of me, and I forgot to tell you. Do you remember that there was a cultivator called Wu Xian in your clan? Ling Xiao said while smiling.
"Of course I know, that's our Witch clan's great elder. Being respected by our people, I wonder what you mean by bringing up our great elder?" Wu Zhong had a bad feeling about this.
"Oh, it's nothing, it's just that I met this person before and wanted to control Nangong Changfeng, but I stopped him!" The moment Ling Xiao finished speaking, he looked at Wu Zhong, wanting to see what kind of attitude exactly Wu Zhong had!
"What?" You actually know about this? It seems like we're not destined to be kind anymore! Since that's the case, then we have nothing else to say! "Please!" When Wu Zhong heard Ling Xiao's words, he immediately changed his mind.
This was because Wu Zhong knew that if the Nangong Family knew about this matter, then he and the rest would be mercilessly suppressed by the Nangong Family.
After Wu Zhong finished speaking, the rest of the people surrounded Ling Xiao and the other two, all of them wanting to eat Ling Xiao and the rest!
Hehe, Ling Xiao did not expect to actually implicate you this time, I am truly sorry! Looking at Ling Xiao now, Nangong Man's heart felt unspeakably moved. (TL: UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU)))
"It's fine, these people can't trap you and me! "It's alright!" Ling Xiao laughed and said, then looked at everyone.
"Hmph, Ling Xiao, I originally admired you very much, and thought that you were someone trustworthy. It's just that I didn't expect you to already know our secret, and now there's really no chance!" Wu Zhong knew that he and the others would probably have to pay a huge price this time!
"Haha!" Wu Zhong, come on, I, Ling Xiao, have never been afraid of anyone, not even you! " Ling Xiao slowly said.
A great war was about to break out. As the Young Clan Master of the Witch Clan, it was impossible for Wu Zhong to maintain a friendly relationship with him after knowing the secret of his clan.
At this moment, the most nervous person on the scene was actually Wu Zhong, because Wu Zhong was still thinking about one thing, and that was, since Ling Xiao had discovered the clan's secret, why didn't Wu Xian, the Great Clan Elder, go and kill him?
"Ling Xiao, did Wu Xian not kill you?" Wu Zhong asked tentatively.
