Ling Yun and his group slowly walked towards the wide open space in front of them.
Stepping out of the open space, one enters the territory of Zhongling City.
At this moment, Xiao Yanran nervously observed her surroundings, her pretty face pale with tension, and she said to Ling Yun in a trembling voice:
"Lingyun, it's too quiet here, there's definitely an ambush!"
Ling Yun nodded in agreement.
"That's right. It's surrounded by dense forests, which is perfect for an ambush. Moreover, this place has a terrain pattern of three mountains gathering evil spirits, which is suitable for setting up a trapping dragon formation."
"Hmm! It's a perfect place for murder and robbery!"
Seeing Ling Yun's nonchalant demeanor, Xiao Yanran became anxious, "You're just this calm?"
Ling Yun turned to look at Xiao Yanran and teased her:
"Isn't your goal the stars and the sea? You're scared of this little thing?"
"Hmph!" Xiao Yanran blushed and turned her head away angrily.
They traveled about a hundred feet.
boom!
The array light illuminated an area of ten thousand feet, and everyone except Ling Yun felt their cultivation level rapidly declining.
At the same time, a dense swarm of martial artists surrounded them from all directions.
A full 100,000 people.
Seeing this, Ling Yun's heart sank. The Immortal Martial Academy really went all out, gathering so many martial artists for the Wood Spirit Witch.
An elderly man in a red robe spoke sternly to Ling Yun:
"Ling Yun, hand over the Wood Spirit Witch and I'll spare your life!"
Hearing the old man's words,
Ling Yun summoned Little Green, held it in his hand, and looked at the old man:
"Is this the thing you're talking about?"
Upon seeing the Wood Spirit Witch, everyone's eyes immediately lit up with greed, eager to snatch it.
The old man's breathing quickened, his eyes fixed on the Wood Spirit Shaman, then he reached out his hand.
"Hand over the Wood Spirit Shaman voluntarily, or you will be killed without mercy!"
Ling Yun smiled and glanced around, then patted Xiao Lü's head.
"Want it? Come and take it!"
The old man frowned slightly, somewhat unsure of what to do. Ling Yun seemed too calm in the face of 100,000 martial artists.
His calmness is a bit abnormal; a normal person would have been terrified by now.
Surrounded by 100,000 people, Xiao Yanran felt terrified. However, she saw that A Bao and Yan Ruyu were calm, as if they were facing only one person.
Even the little white fox and Shangguan Hong remained calm.
Xiao Yanran couldn't help but ask:
"Aren't you guys even a little bit nervous? Fine! I'll go instead!"
Xiao Yanran looked around, trying to keep her voice calm, and coldly said:
"My former master is Han Yu, the third elder of the outer sect of the Immortal Martial Academy. How dare he surround and kill us? Aren't you afraid of retaliation from the Immortal Martial Academy?"
"Haha..." The old man laughed contemptuously, "It was Elder Han who issued the bounty. Besides, what gives you the audacity to threaten us, a disciple who has been expelled from the Immortal Martial Academy!"
"You... Humph!" Xiao Yanran gritted her teeth in anger and said furiously:
"I wasn't expelled from the Immortal Martial Academy; I withdrew from it myself!"
Ling Yun shook his head and smiled, patting her shoulder, "Don't be nervous, it's only 100,000 people!"
He once shattered several great worlds with a single palm strike, and faced countless people.
For Ling Yun, 100,000 people was just a small matter.
Xiao Yanran rolled her eyes at Ling Yun, wondering where his calm confidence came from. She was both angry and somewhat expectant, wondering how Ling Yun would deal with these people later.
Thinking it over, Xiao Yanran drew her silver crescent blade, preparing for a fierce battle.
The old man, unwilling to waste any more time, scolded:
"Hurry up and hand over the Wood Spirit Witch, or I will tear you to pieces."
Ling Yun still smiled and said:
"Come and get it!"
"You..." The old man frowned deeply, but refrained from asking:
"What gives you the confidence to remain calm when surrounded by 100,000 people?"
"His confidence comes from his protectors!"
At this moment, Han Yu appeared in the sky with more than a dozen cultivators at the Sealed Realm, looking down at Ling Yun.
Seeing the Wood Spirit Witch in Ling Yun's hand, Han Yu trembled with excitement and said breathlessly:
"Ling Yun, hand over the Wood Spirit Witch, and this elder may spare your life!"
"If you want it, come and get it!"
Ling Yun repeated the same statement, with a mocking expression on his face.
Seeing that Ling Yun was not cooperating at all, Han Yu became furious and shouted behind Ling Yun:
“Lingyun’s protector, I know you’re not far away. Show yourself. I and a dozen or so cultivators at the Sealed Realm are here specifically to deal with you.”
"I'm giving you one chance to live. If you don't come out within three breaths, you and Ling Yun will both die!"
Abao looked at Han Yu as if he were an idiot and couldn't help but shout:
“My brother doesn’t have any protectors, so stop shouting like an idiot.”
When Han Yu was laughed at by a junior, her face instantly turned as cold as ice.
"Fine, you won't show yourself, huh? Then watch your disciple die right before your eyes!"
Han Yu still didn't believe that Ling Yun had great strength. His calmness stemmed from only one reason: the protector.
To deal with Ling Yun's protectors, Han Yu invited three elders from major sects and ten elders from both the inner and outer sects of the Immortal Martial Academy.
Ten breaths passed, and there was still no sign of a protector behind Ling Yun.
Han Yu was unwilling to wait any longer and said coldly:
"Kill! Whoever steals the Wood Spirit Witch will have their bounty doubled!"
Upon hearing this, all the martial artists revealed greedy expressions, looking at Ling Yun as if he were a pile of top-grade spirit stones.
Seeing 100,000 warriors charging towards him, Shangguan Hong stood in front of Ling Yun.
“My benefactor, I am at the Sealed Human Realm and can hold these people off for a moment. You take the others and leave.”
Xiao Yanran gripped the hilt of her knife and stood in front of Ling Yun as well.
"Run! Han Yu won't kill me out of consideration for our past relationship!"
Abao and Yan Ruyu pulled the two of them over.
"Now it's up to the older brother!"
