The sunlight became scorchingly hot.
The temperature in the Fulong Mountain Range also suddenly increased, giving off a somewhat stifling feeling.
Ling Xiao leaned under the shade of a tree, looking down towards the foot of the mountain.
He found it strange, why were there so many martial artists entering the Fulong Mountain Range to collect herbs today?
These people clearly had no hostility towards him, purely there to collect herbs, and as he was not one to kill indiscriminately, naturally he would not strike at these individuals.
While waiting, he did not forget to continue his cultivation.
Two Sword Soul Clones sat on either side of him, while his true body continuously fidgeted with the air sword in his hand.
He had a feeling.
“Nine Veins Qi Sword” would only reveal its true power after condensing nine qi swords, just like “Shadow Transmutation Sword Art” could only start cultivating sword techniques after gathering thirteen shadow avatars—it was the same reasoning.
So he was now eager to elevate “Nine Veins Qi Sword.”
What seemed like idly fidgeting was actually comprehension.
Suddenly, he noticed something off about those herb-collecting martial artists.
Ling Xiao himself had collected herbs before and had learned the actual herb-collecting skills from Yang Dan Lin, so he remembered clearly what to look out for during the process.
However, the herb collectors today mostly didn’t pay attention to these basic skills at all, as if they knew nothing about herb collection.
Seeing this, he felt increasingly that something was not right.
He recalled his Sword Soul Clones, planning to catch someone and inquire.
If the person truly was innocent, he would naturally let them go, but if they were disguised as herb-collecting martial artists to deal with him, that would be too despicable!
A moment later, Ling Xiao caught an herb-collecting martial artist and dragged him to a hidden location.
“Tell me what you’re really up to.
Speak the truth, and I might let you live.
Otherwise, I’ll kill you!”
“I’ll talk!
I’ll talk!”
These martial artists had long been frightened by Ling Xiao’s notorious reputation; they didn’t dare to resist.
“We were forced into the mountain by the Linglong Fairy.
She said that as soon as we discovered your location, we should immediately shoot a signal flare to notify everyone.”
“Hmph, as expected!”
Ling Xiao had always trusted his instincts, and now it seemed his suspicions were correct—the woman had actually entered the mountain.
Since she’s in the mountain, that makes things easier.
It might not be easy to live, but then, is it so hard to die?
Ling Xiao chuckled coldly and continued to ask, “How many people came with you, and what are their strengths?”
“Most are martial artists below the Fifth Layer of the Transcendent Realm, but there are three from the Moon Hua Sect with a Cultivation Level above the Seventh Level.
There’s also a core disciple from the Beast King Palace with Eighth Level Cultivation.”
“Not bad, not bad, you’re quite honest.
By the way, you have a thunderbolt signal flare on you, right?
Give it to me!”
Ling Xiao said with a smile.
“Yes, yes, but please don’t kill me, I really don’t want to die, it was all that woman’s coercion.”
“Alright, just hand over your Storage Ring to me, and then you can scram.”
Ling Xiao spoke indifferently.
The martial artist hastily removed his Storage Ring and handed it to Ling Xiao.
After checking, Ling Xiao found that the martial artist truly didn’t have anything else on him and kicked him away, saying, “Scram!”
Once the martial artist had left, Ling Xiao set up some preparations in the vicinity, using all the Fire Serpent Refining Array Stones he had on him.
These damned fools, since they’re not afraid of dying, let them have their fill.
The power of the Fire Serpent Array was not fixed; as long as the materials were good enough and the technique exquisite enough, the power of the Array Formation naturally would be much greater.
Ling Xiao’s batch of Fire Serpent Refining Array Stones had no problem killing warriors of the Transcendent Realm Third Layer.
“Let’s deal with this bunch first.”
Although warriors above the Transcendent Realm Fourth Layer wouldn’t necessarily die from the Fire Serpent Array, they would definitely be affected, and getting hurt was certain.
“Take it slow.”
“When I had nothing to do in the Sect, I didn’t learn any other arrays, I only refined this Fire Serpent Array.”
After setting everything up, he immediately fired a signal flare.
In that instant, he felt an extremely powerful presence approaching him.
“Tsk tsk, they’re all here, huh?
Outside, I might be afraid of you guys, but this is deep in the Fulong Mountain Range.
If you’re not afraid of death, then come, I’ll play you to death!”
Ling Xiao chuckled and quickly hid in the shadows, leaving only a Sword Soul Clone there waiting for the enemy.
Shortly after, a large group of troops finally arrived.
Ling Xiao noticed that Linglong Fairy was always hiding behind a man.
If his guess was correct, that man should be the Beast King Palace’s tenth-ranked core disciple Wang She, whose strength was just slightly below Ying Wu Ya.
There were also three other people, for whom he had information in his mind—
Zhan Liu, Wu Yang, and Qin Wu, three of Meng Yuan’s Four Wooden Guests.
He had killed Tie Shan, and now these three brothers had all come after him; their fraternal bond was indeed deep, flocking together even in death.
“Ling Xiao, today let’s see where you can run!”
Seeing Ling Xiao’s Sword Soul Clone standing there so nonchalantly, Linglong Fairy cursed angrily, “You’ve killed so many martial artists, you’re now the public enemy of the Twelve Sects.”
“Heh, how ridiculous.
You should worry about yourself.
Soon, you’ll be in hell, keeping your cold-faced brother company.”
“You little beast!
How dare you commit such atrocities and harm your fellow disciples.
If you surrender now, you might be spared a harsher fate and left with a whole corpse.

Otherwise, you will definitely be torn to a thousand pieces!”
Qin Wu couldn’t contain his anger and roared before Linglong Fairy could speak again.
“Bullshit!
If Tie Shan hadn’t tried to kill me, I wouldn’t have bothered with him.
You four fools are clearly being played by that Meng Yuan, and you still haven’t come to your senses.
If you leave quietly today, out of respect for our brotherhood, I won’t kill you.”
Ling Xiao cursed back.
He was obviously playing the victim with such shamelessness.
Could it be that if I had lain there and let them kill me, it wouldn’t be considered harming a fellow disciple?
“Qin Wu, no need to waste words with him.
Kill!”
With a furious shout from Zhan Liu, he charged out.
“That kid has a Gold-top Level Martial Arts Secret Book on him.
Whoever grabs it, it’s theirs,” shouted Linglong Fairy at this moment.
She didn’t care about treasures anymore; as long as Ling Xiao died, nothing else mattered.
Otherwise, she felt she would barely sleep through the night.
“Fight for it!”
How could it be said that men die for wealth, as birds die for food?
The martial artists only hesitated a moment before they pounced on him.
Even though they knew full well that Ling Xiao had killed hundreds of martial artists just like them, greed still prevented them from turning a blind eye to the Gold-top Level Martial Arts.
“Fire Serpent Array, activate!”
Ling Xiao quickly retracted his Sword Soul Clone and activated the Fire Serpent Array.
At that moment, dozens of Fire Serpent Arrays activated simultaneously, and thousands of fire snakes, spitting out their tongues, sprayed the warriors with terrifying flames.
Ling Xiao had modified these flames with the Death Dark Flame, adding a terrifying “death ability.”
It was said that the Death Dark Flame governed the fire of death.
As long as one was touched by this flame, it would not extinguish unless they died.
