Hiss~

Seeing Ling Yao easily unleash her divine power of using her body as a sword, everyone couldn't help but gasp.

"Young friend Ling's sister is truly a genius! She grasped the essence of using her body as a sword after only one reading. It's truly astonishing!"

The patriarch of the Crane Clan spoke in a trembling voice.

Ling Yao flew back, dusted herself off, and said nonchalantly:

"That's not difficult at all~"

As she spoke, she climbed into Lingyun's arms and asked her brother to hug her.

The onlookers were dumbfounded and drank a glass of wine to calm their nerves.

The patriarch of the crane clan chuckled to himself.

"Miss Ling Yao will surely become a Sword Emperor in the future on the path of swordsmanship!"

Upon hearing this, Ling Yun gave a thumbs up, "Ancestor's judgment is absolutely at the Immortal Emperor level!"

Ling Yao is the Nirvana body of Sword Emperor Lin Muyao.

Although Ling Yun's group of people may seem like burdens, they are actually all extraordinary.

Even the most ordinary Shangguan Hong has a complicated background, so there must be a reason why Ling Yun made him learn the art of spear fighting.

Xiao Yanran and Yan Ruyu were able to awaken the Crimson Phoenix and the Seven-Colored Phoenix not because they worked hard to awaken them, but because these two supreme fire-elemental lords took the initiative to seek them out for fusion.

However, they themselves were unaware of these secrets.

Seeing that Ling Yao had already used her skills, A Bao and Yan Ruyu exchanged a glance, then walked out of the main hall and soared into the sky.

Transforming into black and white and seven-colored sword light, it blasted two nearby mountains into dust.

Everyone was stunned by this scene; Ling Yun's henchmen were truly extraordinary.

Seeing that A Bao and Yan Ruyu had already used their skills, Shangguan Hong and Xiao Yanran were not to be outdone, and even the little white fox was eager to try.

Seeing this, the elders of the Crane Clan twitched their lips and quickly stood up to stop them:

"I know you have grasped the essence of using your body as a sword. Stop now, my friends. If you keep fighting, you'll destroy all the mountains in the Crane Territory."

Ling Yun held down the little white fox and the others, and laughed:

"Eat your food properly!"

...

The next day,

Ling Yun and his group bid a reluctant farewell to the elders of the Crane Clan and the sect leader of the Heavenly Pill Sect.

"Fellow travelers, until we meet again!"

"Friends, have a safe journey!"

Ling Yun and his group boarded the Qilin and set off for their next destination.

Abao spread out the map and pointed ahead, saying:

"Our next stop is Sky Lantern City!"

Is there any explanation?

Ling Yun asked with a smile.

“Yes!” Abao explained, “If we go forward, there isn’t a single mountain for 500,000 miles around; it’s all wasteland and farmland.”

After a pause, Abao continued:

"It is said that the order of the main road in this place is disordered, and it is often impossible to distinguish directions. Therefore, the city lord of Tiandeng City built a lighthouse that is ten thousand feet tall in the city."

It guides those who have lost their way, so that they may see the light of the lighthouse, day or night.

Upon hearing this, everyone looked towards the Sky Lantern City, but there were no lights.

Are you sure there's a lighthouse in Sky Lantern City?

Xiao Yanran questioned.

“This…” Abao scratched his head, embarrassed, and said:

"The wick might be faulty!"

Then Abao changed the subject:

"By the way, the most famous delicacy in Tiandeng City is ginger duck!"

"Ginger duck?" the little white fox blinked its big eyes and asked.

"After eating the braised chicken in a clay pot and the stewed goose in an iron pot, it's time for the duck!"

The group shook their heads and smiled, then headed towards Sky Lantern City, ready to savor the delicious ginger duck.

...

At this moment, in a dimly lit room, the flame on the lamp wick flickered erratically, as if it might go out at any moment.

The dim firelight illuminated two gloomy faces.

A man in black robes sat in the main seat, with a person whose face was obscured and whose body was completely hidden in the darkness standing beside him.

A middle-aged man with sharp eyes sat diagonally opposite the man.

"I want Ling Yun's corpse and the Divine Spring within three days!"

The man in black robes spoke coldly, his words filled with murderous intent and hatred.

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man said in a deep voice:

"Our Heavenly Slaughter Hall has six rules against killing: First, we will not kill ordinary people; second, we will not kill honest officials; third, we will not kill benevolent spirits; fourth, we will not kill those who punish evil and promote good; fifth..."

Snap!

The man in black robes slammed his fist on the table in anger, his voice chilling as he said:

"An assassin organization is telling me about the Six No-Kill Rules. Don't you think that's absurd?"

Ling Yun has slaughtered countless sects and clans along his path! He's a butcher, a ruthless executioner!

"No!" The middle-aged man suddenly looked up, staring directly into the eyes of the man in black robes, and said sharply:

"Whether it's the Qi family, the Thunder Sect, or the Beast Sect, which one isn't a heinous force? Did he kill the wrong person?!"

Although my Heavenly Slaughter Hall is an assassin organization, it is also an assassin organization with principles. I regret that I cannot comply with your request!

"Heh..." The man in black robes laughed in extreme anger, his voice carrying a sinister undertone.

"I'll spare your life, but prepare to have your deceased wife's corpse reduced to dust!"

After speaking, the man in black robes stood up and walked towards the door. As he passed the middle-aged man, he glanced at him sideways and sneered:

"If Ling Yun's head and the Divine Spring are not seen within three days, the Heavenly Slaughter Hall will cease to exist."

If you succeed, I can reward you with a drop of divine spring water to revive your deceased wife!

Watching the black-robed man's departing figure, Wan Haiming, the leader of the Heavenly Slaughter Hall, clenched his fist, then helplessly let it go after a moment.

"Men! Arrange for a Supreme-level assassin to kill Ling Yun! I must see his head within three days!"

"Yes, sir!"

"Wait!"

Wan Haiming thought for a moment and said weakly:

"Don't kill the people around him!"

At this moment, Ling Yun and his group stopped by a stream.
