The assassin couldn’t give Ling Xiao any chances!
He had to kill Ling Xiao in one strike.
However, he forgot about the ti.
Or maybe he never thought from the beginning that Ling Xiao could break Qin Huo’s seal.
The next mont, a huge fist appeared in his field of view.
It was Qin Huo!
The fist was like a massive hamr; by the ti he tried to react and block, it was already too late.
His body flew like a cannonball, hitting and breaking several trees before it finally stopped.
Escape!
The assassin didn’t dare hesitate.
Having been ambushed by Qin Huo and severely injured, staying would only lead to one path—death.
He was confident that if he chose to flee, Qin Huo couldn’t possibly catch up.
But what he didn’t expect was that the mont the thought of escaping erged, he suddenly felt a hole form in his chest.
It was as if sothing had penetrated him.
A cold terror filled with murderous intent.
"Shadow Cone!"
Ling Xiao slowly stood up, his gaze coldly fixed on the assassin.
He didn’t want such a dangerous person to escape; otherwise, he would pose a huge threat to him.
Thus, this person had to die.
Only in his dying mont did the assassin realize that he had misjudged from the start.
The biggest threat wasn’t Qin Huo, but rather Ling Xiao, who didn’t seem to have impressive cultivation levels.
This young man was not only extrely cunning but also cruel in his thods.
"General Qin, what are your plans from now on?"
Ling Xiao looked at Qin Huo and asked.
Qin Huo heaved a long sigh and said, "Thank you for saving , young hero. However, I still have so brothers who haven’t managed to escape from the auction house, and I need to figure out a way to rescue them. As for the future, we’ll see."
At this mont, Qin Huo’s trust in Ling Xiao had increased significantly.
The fact that Ling Xiao had managed to break his seal alone was enough to earn his deep admiration.
"I will figure out a way to help your brothers. Let reintroduce myself; my na is Ling Xiao!"
Ling Xiao knew that it was impossible to force soone as stubborn as him to do sothing.
After all, Ling Xiao didn’t have that level of power yet.
So he didn’t insist too much, only trying to do what he could. Such people, once they trust you, will trust you for a lifeti and be loyal forever.
"Ling Xiao?"
Qin Huo suddenly thought of sothing. "Could it be that you are the Chosen Son of Heaven, Ling Xiao?"
"Indeed!"
Ling Xiao didn’t deny it.
Hearing this, Qin Huo knelt down imdiately and cupped his fists, saying, "Subordinate pays respects to the Chosen Son of Heaven! If it is you, then this subordinate is willing to follow you!"
Facing Qin Huo’s loyalty, Ling Xiao didn’t imdiately respond but coldly said, "The thing I hate most is betrayal, so you still have a chance to regret now. If you follow , you must be loyal for life. If you betray , I will use all ans to kill you.
So if you can’t manage that, then leave. I can introduce you to a good place where your abilities can be utilized."
Qin Huo shook his head and said, "I’ve long heard about the matters of Holy City. From the ti the Chosen Son of Heaven saved the remaining Holy Dynasty Martial Artists with his own strength, I believed that you were the true King who could rebuild the Human Dynasty, just like the ancient King of People.
Besides, I, Qin Huo, am not soone ungrateful. If not for the Chosen Son of Heaven today, I, Qin Huo, would probably end up like my brother, at the rcy of others."
"Good! Since you have such thoughts, then stay by my side. But rember, I despise betrayal! Once you’ve chosen to follow , do not entertain other ideas."
Ling Xiao stepped forward, helped Qin Huo to his feet, and said, "General Qin, please get up. I am temporarily residing at Qingxu College. You can stay there with for now. Once there’s news about your brothers, I will think of a way to rescue them."
Originally, Ling Xiao had planned to rescue those people today. Unfortunately, he didn’t see them, and by the end of the auction, he had only seen Qin Huo; the whereabouts of the others were unknown.
"At your command!"
Qin Huo bowed.
From this mont on, his life belonged to Ling Xiao. He wanted to take a gamble to see whether Ling Xiao was truly a dragon among n or rely a worm disguised as a dragon.
But with his personality, whether Ling Xiao was a dragon or a worm, he would remain loyal until death.
If Ling Xiao was a dragon, it would be his fortune; if a worm, it would just be his bad luck.
"Bring Yan Ran, and let’s go!"
Having dealt with the assassin, but Ling Xiao still had so worries. He feared that Yan Peng probably hated him to the bone and wouldn’t pin all his hopes on just one assassin from the Heavenly Realm, Ten Heavenly Directions.
There would definitely be other moves.
"Yes!"
Qin Huo, carrying Feng Yanran, followed Ling Xiao as they rushed into the distance.
They had just left when another figure appeared at the site of their recent battle.
Seeing the body of the assassin,
the figure shook his head and said, "I didn’t expect the auction house’s Young Master to be right, this Ling Xiao is really sothing. It seems he has already unsealed Qin Huo; otherwise, this man would not be dead."
Ignoring the corpse, the figure hastened in the direction Ling Xiao had left.
Although the road was sparsely populated at this ti, there were still martial artists passing by who, seeing this person, discreetly hid by the roadside, not daring to move.
"Good heavens, a martial artist from the Cave Heaven Realm. What’s he up to?"
They swallowed hard, terrified.
Even in the Divine Phoenix Continent, martial artists of the Cave Heaven Realm were still in the minority. Having three to four hundred such martial artists on the entire continent was considered quite good.
This number was significantly greater than on the Heavenly Dragon Continent, but still few.
The figure did not pay attention to them but just followed the trail.
However, after a short while, he stopped.
"Co out. There’s no use hiding!"
The figure coldly looked in a certain direction of the bushes and shouted, "Don’t make take action, or even Feng Yanran won’t be spared!"
From within the bushes, Ling Xiao felt sowhat helpless.
If he had been alone, he naturally could have evaded this person’s pursuit, but unfortunately, he had with him Feng Yanran, who had been knocked unconscious for his sake.
He absolutely could not abandon Feng Yanran.
Suddenly, a shadow burst out of the bushes—it was Qin Huo.
His hand, at so unknown point, had acquired a Long Spear. As the spear pointed forward, its energy burst forth.
"Hmph, your seal has indeed been broken. But it’s useless!"
The martial artist from the Cave Heaven Realm snorted coldly. Without using a weapon, he t the Long Spear with his bare palms, incredibly blocking the Long Spear in mid-air, then released a powerful burst of energy that sent Qin Huo flying.
"The na of General Fei is indeed extraordinary. Your combat power can indeed reach the level of soone newly entering the Cave Heaven Realm, but it’s a pity you are no match for !"
The martial artist from the Cave Heaven Realm was evidently surprised by Qin Huo’s strength.
A normal martial artist at the level of Ten Directions Heavenly Realm, going up against him, would almost certainly face imminent death.
Yet, this Qin Huo was able to retreat comfortably, which was indeed no small feat.
"You shouldn’t have followed!"
Qin Huo shook his head.
"The cor is bound to die!"
"With just you?"
The martial artist from the Cave Heaven Realm was very disdainful.
