The screams of the men in black robes cut through the silent night, like ghosts crying and hissing, especially terrifying.
Half of his body was directly destroyed by the hot dragon's breath, and the remaining upper body fell with a plop into the messy street after the spell was released.
Like, falling into a garbage heap.
"Ho...ho...ah..."
The man in black robe struggled and crawled forward.
Ling Xiao walked up and laughed dumbly: "Aren't you dead yet?" He stepped on the opponent and said with a smile, "Have a rest, my friend, when do you want to crawl? Tell me where you want to go, and I will take you Just go, and in return, tell me where you hide your treasure."
He waited expectantly for an answer.
A few seconds later, he found that he had accidentally trampled the other person to death.
"Damn, so fragile?"
He muttered, with a hint of disgust in helplessness, without any reflection on whether he had used too much force.
After taking off the black-robed man's storage bag, Ling Xiao's mood suddenly turned from gloomy to sunny.
The storage bag is filled with a large amount of supplies. Judging from the quantity, it is completely a standard asset for a strong person in the late stage of foundation building!
It turns out I didn’t hide it anywhere else, I had it all with me!
Ling Xiao was so happy that he didn't bother to check it carefully and quickly put the storage bag into his arms.
Behind him, Jin Qing and others could not wait to fly over.
"Fellow Taoist's divine power really opened my eyes!"
"Using your mid-term cultivation to kill the late-stage strong ones, fellow Taoist has done something that I could never even dream of doing!"
As soon as the three of them landed, they greeted them warmly, full of compliments and flattery.
Ling Xiao smiled calmly and said: "It's just good luck and the sneak attack was successful."
He didn't brag either.
Ling Xiao would not have set up talisman traps on both sides of the street in advance if he hadn't taken advantage of the moment when the man in black was relaxed.
The man in black robe never dreamed that Qingfengguan's talisman could actually prevent the talisman from firing. The power of the dragon's breath talisman is far beyond that of ordinary second-level talismans.
In addition, Minghu suppressed the magic sword, which was equivalent to breaking the black-robed man's left and right arms.
The combination of various advantages allowed Ling Xiao to attack and kill him at the last moment!
Such a victory was expected and not worth bragging about.
Ling Xiao waved his hand to stop Jin Qing and the others from continuing to flatter him, and said: "After this battle, the Red Sect will definitely be furious and will definitely send more powerful forces in the future. The three of you will go back to recuperate first. In a few days I guess I’m going to have to fight hard!”
The three of Jin and Qing looked at each other with awe, and immediately said nothing more. After handing over to Ling Xiao, they returned to the monk camp together.
It's just that after tonight's battle, the three of them have a deeper understanding of Ling Xiao's strength!
Even the strong men in the late stage of foundation building fell into Ling Xiao's hands. This man's strength was simply unfathomable!
If I had known that Ling Xiao was so ridiculously powerful, the Jin family would have paid double or triple the price to hire Ling Xiao. That would have been a blessing!
The three of them thought happily.
But they didn't notice that Ling Xiao didn't follow back, but disappeared from the place in a flash.
Ling Xiao's work is not over yet.
Taking advantage of the death of the man in black robe and the leaderless power of the Red Sect in the city, he planned to clear out the people of the Red Sect in one fell swoop!
Anyway, once the man in black robe died, both sides were completely deadlocked.
It’s time to let the Cardinal know who has the final say in this city!
In the dark night, there was a faint chuckle.
…
The clean-up operation lasted until dawn.
Relying on the many "eyes and ears" in the city, Ling Xiao killed a total of thirty-seven people, including five foundation-building experts, and completely uprooted the red-clothed sect forces lurking in the city!
As the sun rose, Ling Xiao issued the third city lord order: the entire city was under martial law, and anyone entering or leaving must undergo extremely strict scrutiny!
The young men in charge of the investigation were none other than the young monks. They treated Ling Xiao's words like an imperial edict and would never show any favoritism.
From the name and gender, to the number of people in the family, the number of acres of land per person, and the number of cows in the field, they were all brought to me truthfully!
Anyone who cannot answer will be treated as a traitor!
The people were extremely supportive of this decision.
Recently, there have been frequent fights at night, which has seriously affected the construction of a well-off life. He should be sentenced urgently and the fighting culture in the city should be reformed!
Ling Xiao returned to the city lord's mansion and stretched himself.
The group of monsters living in the darkness had many ways of bypassing the inspections and entering the city.
Martial law can only be said to be superficial.
But Ling Xiao must use this superficial skill to represent his position.
Not welcome here, Red Sect.
Since you still want to come in, you have to be prepared...
Ling Xiao took out the black-robed man's storage bag and checked it.
There are no unexpected surprises in spiritual stones, elixirs, talismans, materials, and magic weapons, but they will never disappoint.
This batch of supplies can be a good replenishment for Ling Xiao, and he can replenish more spiritual energy in the future.
After he classified them casually, he sat down cross-legged, performed the golden body relic technique, and entered a state of cultivation.
Now he is practicing the Golden Body Relics one day and the Huang Ting Sutra the other. With the huge amount of spiritual energy supplemented, the cultivation speed is not slow.
There is still about half the journey to the late stage of foundation building.
The battle with the black-robed man just now also gave him some enlightenment. After practicing for a while, he drank a pot of dragon bone wine, punched like a wild python in the manor, and used the devil's tactics to continuously digest the spiritual energy in his body.
After finishing one set of fighting pythons, Ling Xiao immediately switched to fighting waterfalls and started another set!
Ling Xiao was immersed in boxing and enlightenment, unaware of the passage of time.
In the following days, the city lord's mansion remained closed, while the monks, with the assistance of Jin Qing and others, took turns guarding the city gate, not letting anyone suspicious go.
However, he did gain something. He captured many followers of the Red Sect and beheaded them directly in the street as a warning to others.
For a time, the dark clouds hanging over Linfeng City seemed to have dissipated a lot.
There were no more fights at night, and the people clapped their hands and applauded. Inexplicably, Ling Xiao's reputation in the city reached a new height.
Stable days always pass quickly.
April is here.
Ling Xiao finally stopped the pace of hard training and came out of the city lord's mansion for the first time in a long time. There was no one on the street.
The people had received orders from Ling Xiao two days ago, claiming that there were rebels who were about to attack Linfeng City, so they went out to take shelter.
The Songshan Sword Sect was also very enthusiastic and specially sent disciples to assist the monks in temporarily moving the people to Huangsong City for refuge.
Ling Xiao also rejected the Songshan Sword Sect's request for support.
Today, the entire city is like an empty city, and the only people still active are Ling Xiao, Jin Ling'er, and the three ancestors of the Jin family.
Of course, in the darkness where the sun cannot penetrate, there are also many prying eyes lurking.
Ling Xiao thought so.
Minghu walked out of the monks' camp and came to Ling Xiao.
One person, one avatar, just sitting on the steps at the door of the City Lord's Mansion, bathing in the warm spring sun, quietly waiting for the guests to come.
