Chapter 2938 - 2942: Rescued a Young Lady

The three people attacked by the One-eyed Demon Wolf weren’t actually weak. Two had cultivation at the peak of the First Cycle of Yin-Yang Realm Thirteen Hell Layers.

The other one had cultivation in the First Stage of the Fourteenth Level of Yin-Yang Realm Hell, comparable to that of the previous Martial Artist Team Captain.

All three were women.

However, one could tell the difference between master and servant.

Two of them were dressed more like bodyguards or protectors.

And yet the person with the strongest cultivation was actually the master, dressed in splendor, with very sweet features.

"Boss, this is a great chance for heroics and rescuing a beauty."

Xiao Jin said with a laugh.

"Why don’t you go then?"

Ling Xiao replied irritably.

He had no interest in rescuing a beauty, even if he were to save people, it would be out of curiosity about the Sword King Dynasty.

"Forget it, boss, you should handle it. But can you manage it? That One-eyed Demon Wolf isn’t weak."

Xiao Jin expressed his concern.

"Facing it head-on, I don’t have much confidence. But an assassination, I am very confident in."

Ling Xiao chuckled. This time, he didn’t need Xiao Jin’s help, he could handle it alone.

"Miss, you go quickly, we will block this creature!"

The two female guards showed loyalty, but regrettably, their strength was ultimately too weak, as the One-eyed Demon Wolf’s claws sent them flying.

The young miss was already injured; although not severely, she was unlikely to escape death when facing the ferocious One-eyed Demon Wolf.

The One-eyed Demon Wolf focused all its attention on the young miss, unaware that danger had approached.

Ling Xiao employed his Ghost Demon Dragon technique, approaching the One-eyed Demon Wolf, prepared to assassinate the creature.

"Opportunity!"

Noticing that the One-eyed Demon Wolf’s attention was centered on the young miss, Ling Xiao suddenly revealed his true self.

The Eight Immortals Sword in his hand pierced sharply towards the vital part of the One-eyed Demon Wolf.

Regarding vital points, the Tai Chi Eye had analyzed them accurately, naturally wouldn’t be wrong.

The One-eyed Demon Wolf’s greatest weakness was that eye on its forehead.

That’s where its attack is strongest, but also where its defense is weakest.

"Awoo—!"

The One-eyed Demon Wolf howled in pain, roaring furiously, and clawing wildly around.

Ling Xiao was caught off guard, struck on the body, flown out, and slammed heavily into the ground.

"Goodness, just one attack and my cultivation sea energy surged by fifty percent!

It seems the greater the disparity in cultivation, the faster my cultivation grows in battle."

However, such an attack, Ling Xiao dared not take a second time.

If not for his exceedingly strong physical body, this blow could have shattered him to pieces.

"Fiend, die!"

Ling Xiao, upon landing, employed the Magic Dragon Illusion Body Technique, launched himself once more; the One-eyed Demon Wolf, having suffered a vital wound, was deeply injured, naturally lost its former ferocity.

Stabbed again by the Eight Immortals Sword, blood spurted out.

Ling Xiao seized the moment, transformed into a Phoenix, using the Undying Phoenix Fire to completely burn the One-eyed Demon Wolf to death.

After finishing all this, he was nearly exhausted, collapsing.

Such cross-level battles are truly not affairs for humans.

In battle, one must maintain absolute composure and focus; even a bit of distraction could cost one’s life.

"Watch out!"

The young miss suddenly called out.

Ling Xiao didn’t understand why.

Suddenly, a terrifying force erupted from the Demon Beast Crystal Core of the One-eyed Demon Wolf, blasting onto his body.

Once more, he was sent flying.

This time, he was seriously injured, blood gushing from his mouth.

He swiftly swallowed a Spirit Pill made from the Thousand-Year Ganoderma.

Paired with the Life Martial Soul, his injuries began to rapidly heal.

This Thousand-Year Ganoderma was something he had snatched from the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm of the Chen Royal Family.

One ganoderma was refined into a hundred pills.

But that’s all there was.

This stuff works similarly to a Blood Spirit Pill but is much stronger.

After all, being refined from a Thousand-Year Ganoderma, it naturally is extraordinary.

After consuming the Ganoderma Pill, Ling Xiao began meditating to heal while stabilizing his cultivation.

Though he was badly hit by the dying blow of the One-eyed Demon Wolf, it also stimulated the potential within his body.

With one vigorous push, he progressed from the Hell Late Stage of the Thirteen Layers to the Hell’s Peak Cultivation.

As a result, if facing martial artists with cultivation level at the First Stage of the Fourteenth Level of Yin-Yang Realm Hell, he would have greater confidence.

While Ling Xiao was healing, the young miss approached and stored the Demon Beast Crystal Core of the One-eyed Demon Wolf into her Storage Ring.

Though the Demon Beast Crystal Core had lost much due to releasing energy to attack Ling Xiao, it remained extremely valuable.

Seeing this, Ling Xiao slightly frowned.

This girl, how is she so inconsiderate? Clearly, he killed the One-eyed Demon Wolf; if she wanted to take the Demon Beast Crystal Core, she ought to at least ask him. Yet she just took it without saying a word.

"Hey, are you still alive?"

The young miss walked over and shouted at Ling Xiao, who was healing.

This attitude clearly was that of a willful miss from a wealthy family, utterly lacking in respect for others.

Ling Xiao ignored her, genuinely regretting saving this woman, such nonsense.

He closed his eyes and continued healing.

"Humph, I didn’t ask for your help. Besides, even if you hadn’t acted, I could have killed that creature myself!"

The young miss snorted, "So that Demon Beast Crystal Core belongs to me, but to thank you for saving me, I can grant you some reward."

Such arrogant words.

Such a lofty attitude.

She treated Ling Xiao as if she were commanding.

Ling Xiao still didn’t respond until his injuries healed and his cultivation stabilized, then he opened his eyes and said, "Your two guards aren’t dead, won’t you tend to them?"

"Humph, two useless things; unable to protect, let them fend for themselves."

The young miss snorted.

Hearing this, Ling Xiao felt this woman was increasingly unreasonable.

The two guards weren’t strong, but they fought desperately to protect her; even if there were no merits, there were efforts, weren’t there?

What are human lives considered?

He stood up, sighed, then walked over and fed two Blood Spirit Pills to the two female guards.

The Blood Spirit Pill was of no use to him anymore, but for those who hadn’t used it, the effect was still very good.

After consuming the Blood Spirit Pills, the two guards quickly regained their strength, and their injuries were healed.

"Thank you, noble warrior, for saving our lives!"

The two thanked Ling Xiao with a bow.

"No need, I just lent a hand."

Ling Xiao waved his hand and prepared to leave.

Due to the young miss’s behavior, he was really disappointed; he estimated he and that person could never get along.

"Stop, do you have an identity token?"

The young miss suddenly shouted.

"No, why?"

Ling Xiao’s eyes now flashed with anger.

"I knew you didn’t have one. Out of gratitude for saving me and my guards, I can tell you something.

Without an identity token, it’s best not to wander freely within the Sword King Dynasty; meeting us was your luck.

If you meet others, you might not survive!"

Upon hearing this, Ling Xiao’s anger slightly subsided, thinking this girl might have no manners, but her thoughts weren’t entirely bad.
