Chapter 2804 - 2807: Soul Capturing

"Mm, not bad. With the strength of you four, getting a hundred Magic Crystal Stones and two King Crystals in two days is already pretty decent."

Taking their stuff, Ling Xiao casually tossed it into his Storage Ring.

"Next, I’m going to ask you a few questions. Best answer honestly. Otherwise, dying here would be a pretty bad deal for you."

Ling Xiao said with a smile.

"Young Sect Master, ask whatever you want, we’ll definitely answer."

The black‑clothed youth was so scared he’d already started buttering up Ling Xiao.

Young Sect Master, huh. He could actually say that.

"Why are you four moving together?"

Ling Xiao asked coldly.

"Yun Lan split us into a total of nine teams. He’s one team by himself, the remaining thirty‑two people are in teams of four."

The black‑clothed youth didn’t dare talk nonsense.

Because if he lied and his companions happened to tell the truth, he’d really be dead meat.

"Oh? Splitting into these teams, is it to deal with me?"

Ling Xiao asked again.

"Yes!"

"How are the strength levels of each team divided?"

"Most of them are about the same level as our team. But there are two teams you need to watch out for.

One of them is Yun Lan. He’s alone, but he’s as strong as over thirty of us!

The other team is a powerhouse group made up of Tuo Ba Yun Xiang, Yun Mo, Yun gui, and Yun Yao."

The black‑clothed youth continued.

"Good. Then we’ll save them for last."

Ling Xiao smiled. With his and Xiao Jin’s current strength, whether it was Tuo Ba Yun Xiang’s team or that guy Yun Lan, none of them could possibly be their match.

Starting today, they could afford to be a lot more high‑profile in the Demon Dragon Sect.

"I’ve told you everything. You can let us go now, right?"

The black‑clothed youth looked at Ling Xiao in terror and said.

"Relax, I said I wouldn’t kill you. But before I let you leave, you have to swallow this first!"

Ling Xiao casually took out four pills and said, "This is a Soul Absorption Pill that I’ve improved.

Combined with the Soul Capturing of my Four-leaf Demon Eye, I can easily control anyone whose Cultivation Level is weaker than mine.

So just be good and become my people. I’ll be sure to give Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ a nice surprise."

As for Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ, Ling Xiao didn’t dare underestimate her, so he naturally had to use every trick he could.

The four black‑clothed youths were force‑fed the Soul Absorption Pills by Ling Xiao, then controlled with Soul Capturing.

They basically became Puppets of Ling Xiao.

Normally they looked fine, but at critical moments, the instant Ling Xiao’s Thoughts moved, they’d immediately pledge loyalty to him.

He did this because he was forced to!

Being constantly targeted and messed with was really unpleasant. Even if he could resolve it every time, it was still seriously annoying.

So he decided to strike first!

...

In the blistering Devil Sea Secret Realm, four people were walking forward.

On both sides of the path lay the corpses of Magic Sea Giant Beasts that had been killed.

"Damn, we’ve been searching for half the day and still no sign of Ling Xiao. That brat didn’t turn into a rat and burrow into the ground, did he?"

One of them couldn’t help cursing.

"Quit whining. Once we find Ling Xiao and kill him, we’ll be the big contributors at Vice Dean Cloud’s side. At that time, he’ll definitely reward us heavily."

The leading youth scolded impatiently.

"Heh, are you guys looking for me?"

Suddenly, a light chuckle sounded from behind the four.

The four turned their heads in surprise.

They saw Ling Xiao standing there, smiling at them with narrowed eyes.

"Kill him!"

The hunters, who’d been a little disappointed, suddenly became excited the moment they saw Ling Xiao.

The leader didn’t bother with nonsense, waved his hand, and the four charged at Ling Xiao together.

Too bad, before they could reach Ling Xiao, they were enveloped by a terrifying wave of heat.

And crashed to the ground.

Ling Xiao used the same trick again, only this time he skipped the extra chatter, took their Magic Crystal Stones, fed them Soul Absorption Pills, used Soul Capturing to control them, then hid himself.

He’d sensed that another team was heading this way.

Perfect chance to ambush them and settle it all at once.

After a little more than a minute.

Four figures swept over from the distance.

Seeing the four people sitting on the ground, their roasted skin almost turning to glue, they were dumbfounded.

"What happened?"

The newcomers asked.

"We were ambushed by that brat Ling Xiao. He’s actually robbing Magic Crystal Stones."

The leader sitting there said helplessly.

"Bunch of trash. You can’t even handle Ling Xiao."

Among the four newcomers was a vicious‑looking woman. She wasn’t very old, but she looked extremely savage.

She showed no intention of saving face for the four who’d been defeated.

"What the hell do you know? Ling Xiao’s strength is enough to defeat Mo Yinɡ. How could we possibly be his match? Don’t just talk about us—if the four of you ran into him, you’d be just as screwed!"

The defeated leader cursed.

"Heh, I wouldn’t be like you four pieces of trash, getting schooled by Ling Xiao so easily."

The woman sneered.

"Your end won’t be much different from hers either."

Ling Xiao walked out of the shadows, smiling as he looked at the four newcomers.

"Bullshit, I’ll deal with you right now!"

The leading woman waved her hand and charged at Ling Xiao.

But once she rushed out, she suddenly realized the three behind her hadn’t followed.

She looked back in fear, only to see that those three had actually been subdued by their own people.

"What are you doing?"

The woman roared angrily.

"Idiot, you still don’t get it? We’ve already abandoned the dark for the light. Now we’re people of the Sect Master, people of the Young Sect Master. You rebels are due for a cleanup."

"You dare betray the Deputy Sect Master? You’re insane!"

Unfortunately, she’d only gotten that one line out before she felt a hand press down on her shoulder. It was like being crushed under a mountain—she couldn’t move at all.

"They’re not insane. Because next, you four will be just like them."

Ling Xiao didn’t waste time and dealt with the four newcomers.

By now, he’d already taken care of three teams, and it had only cost him a little over ten minutes.

There was still a long time before the Devil Sea Secret Realm trial ended.

He had plenty of time to play slowly.

"Next team!"

Ling Xiao called out to Xiao Jin, then left again.

"Wait, Young Sect Master."

"What is it?"

Ling Xiao turned to look at the vicious woman and asked.

"Young Sect Master, I’ve offended you a lot before. To make up for it, I’m willing to help you lure the remaining teams over."

The woman said.

"That’s actually a good idea. Saves me from having to look for them one by one. But don’t notify Yun Lan and Tuo Ba Yun Xiang’s group yet.

Trick the other four teams over first."

Ling Xiao smiled. Although it was easy for him to find people, running around was still a hassle.

Anyway, aside from Yun Lan and Tuo Ba Yun Xiang’s team, no one could pose any threat to him.

Just trick them over and catch them all in one net.

"I’ll take care of it right away."

The woman nodded happily, then sent out a call for help to the other four teams.
