Chapter 257: The Domineering Ling Xue’er
Translator: 549690339
Ling Xue’er’s eyebrows shot up, her killing intent vast and overflowing.
With one glance, she discerned the impure motives of these so-called righteous cultivators. Immortal Spirit Daily had it right; these righteous cultivators were indeed a bunch seeking fame and fishing for compliments.
Li Xiaobai let out a breath. This bunch of righteous cultivators finally proved themselves to be of some use, stepping in at the crucial moment to bail him out.
Ling Xue’er must have seen the Immortal Spirit Daily news he released with a delay. If someone could travel from Southern Ming to Central Province for a piece of Inner Armor, they naturally would dare to venture to the Western Desert to rescue Su Mei’er when she fell into a trap.
Previously, according to Treasure Pavilion, this woman was fond of standing up for female cultivators. Since he traded in female cultivators’ Inner Armor, he had already offended her.
“Demon Woman of the Demon Path, an object of universal detestation, if you come with us peacefully, you can avoid some physical suffering!”
The cultivators sized up Ling Xue’er from head to foot, her fair skin and beautiful appearance, a pair of jade feet stirring their heartstrings, just looking at her made their blood boil.
They absolutely had to take her back; such was the consensus among the numerous righteous cultivators. These sorts of deeds were not uncommon for them; sharing a woman was merely a question of who went first.
“Everyone, act with caution. That Demon Monk and Liu Jinshui both have some skills. Let’s deal with them first, then capture the Demonic Woman alive!”
In the crowd, Monk Ling Jue shouted, jealousy towards Liaowang seething within him to the extreme. His adversary employed various Buddhist Laws with ease, even passing through the Golden Light Mirror unscathed, and he also had a goddess by his side.
Even now, while on the run, Liaowang still managed to encounter such a peerless beauty. Why was fate so unfair, and why didn’t he have even a single hair of such fortune?
He must kill him!
“That’s right, shielding the Demon Woman of the Demon Path, and even being disrespectful to our Cangtian Sect ancestor, today not one of you shall escape!”
“Fellow cultivators, let’s vanquish demons and eliminate evil today!”
“Kill!”
The multitude of cultivators surged forward, deploying a variety of techniques, their Magic Treasures covering the sky as they overwhelmed Li Xiaobai and the others.
The surge of Spiritual Power generated by the joint effort of thousands of cultivators was undeniably terrifying; the air in the battlefield churned, and stones splintered and flew.
“Be careful, don’t accidentally injure the Demonic Woman!”
Seeing the cultivators’ fervent gazes, Ling Xue’er suddenly laughed, “How daring, there are actually such characters on the Immortal Spirit Continent. Today, this palace has truly opened its eyes.”
“Heh heh heh, young lady, don’t be impatient. I don’t believe you’re a Demonic Woman. Once we return to the sect, I will conduct a thorough examination. If it turns out you are not a Demonic Woman, I will immediately let you go.”
“Indeed, however, I suggest you come to our Thousand Buddha Temple for the examination instead. The Thousand Buddha Temple is more official and authoritative, and will not make baseless accusations.”
Seeing the beautiful woman smile, the cultivators’ eyes grew even more eager, wishing they could instantly kill the Demon Monk and carry her away.
But they quickly realized something was amiss, as they saw the celestial beauty below casually grip the void, causing their attacks to suddenly dissipate like smoke.
What’s more, the Cultivation Techniques furiously circulating within their bodies also came to an abrupt halt in the blink of an eye, as if suppressed by some force.
“Pfft!”
Originally soaring into the sky, the cultivators now fell down like dumplings, blood spewing from their mouths, a backlash from having their Cultivation Techniques forcibly interrupted.
Many cultivators directly fainted, as they had been attempting to charge up powerful moves, only to have their techniques interrupted and their foundations injured by the backlash.
“Who… who are you!”
Song Zhong and others lay prostrate on the ground, their eyes filled with fear.
They were at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, and yet, in an instant, they were suppressed by someone; considering the ease of the action, it was clear the other party had to be a Great Crossing Realm Expert.
What exactly was happening today? So many powerful experts gathered, and even those at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage had become targets that could be extinguished easily?
“Coveting the body of my Family Head, you lowlifes deserve to die!”
Two maidservants by Ling Xue’er’s side glared fiercely, clenched their fists into a mystical seal, and unleashed a violent barrage toward Song Zhong and the others.
“I…”
Song Zhong frantically tried to defend himself but felt the internal organs in his body were pulverized into dust in an instant. Blood spurted from his mouth, and his eyes became lifeless as he collapsed to the ground.
The other few cultivators at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage met the same fate; they were all killed by the two maidservants upon contact. Li Xiaobai watched in secret astonishment. To kill cultivators of the same level in a split second required an exceedingly strong cultivation level—perhaps these maidservants had reached full completion of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.
The other righteous path cultivators were already scared stiff at this point. Lambs to the slaughter had suddenly transformed into lions, leaving them at a loss. Even the elderly predecessors at the Tribulation Crossing stage had been wiped out in an instant; their fate today seemed more likely grim than favorable.
“Senior, please spare my life! This humble monk was blind to your greatness and has offended you!”
“Perhaps the senior is unaware—these two are a Demon Monk and a Demonic Woman; I am a monk from the Thousand Buddha Temple, commanded by Abbot Wanfozi to arrest these two. I implore the senior, for the sake of the Thousand Buddha Temple, to show mercy and spare me!”
Monk Ling Jue prostrated himself, knocking his head on the floor like one pounding garlic, invoking the powerful support behind him, hoping to save his life.
“Indeed, senior, we were blind fools. I am Wu Zhong from the Cangtian Sect, and our sect’s ancient ancestor is currently at the Thousand Buddha Temple!”
“I am from the Spirit Sword Sect…”
Seeing this, the other cultivators followed suit, dropping to their knees to beg for mercy.
They all had powerful backers of their own, respectable and mighty seniors, and they hoped they wouldn’t be treated too harshly.
However, what Ling Xue’er said next sent a chill down their spines.
“Thousand Buddha Temple, Cangtian Sect? What are those, snacks?”
“Xiaohong, Xiaocui, have you ever heard of them?”
The two maidservants shook their heads as if they were rattle drums: “We’ve never heard of them. They must be some small sects from the Western Desert.”
“I…”
Monk Ling Jue was at a loss for words. Some small sects? What nonsense!
The Thousand Buddha Temple was a grand temple in the Western Desert, and Wanfozi was a Great Crossing Realm Expert. Did the other party come from across a great ocean, not even knowing the name of the Thousand Buddha Temple?
“Abbot Wanfozi is also a Great Crossing Realm Expert.”
“Exactly, our ancient ancestor Wu Hou is also at the cultivation level of the Great Crossing Realm.”
The group of cultivators had no choice but to continue, thick-skinned, as the power and influence they were counting on were totally unrecognized, which was quite embarrassing.
“No wonder I’ve never heard of it; it’s only Great Crossing Realm cultivation after all. It seems it truly is an obscure little temple unknown to the sacred texts,” said Ling Xue’er with a casual nod of her head.
“This… the Abbot is a well-regarded expert in the Western Desert…”
Monk Ling Jue was so frustrated his face turned red and his neck thickened. Wasn’t the Great Crossing Realm the pinnacle of cultivators across the Immortal Spirit Continent? Any higher and one would be ascending to the Upper Realm, wouldn’t they?
How had it become so worthless in this woman’s mouth?
Ling Xue’er sneered, “Only Xuan Ku and Xuan Bei count as notable experts in the Western Desert. Such a nobody like Wanfozi, unheard of, need not be mentioned and embarrass himself.”
“Today I shall cleanse you all, as a caution to the world, that female cultivators of the Immortal Spirit Continent should not be violated or defiled!”
