Chapter 113: Ren Race’s Invasion

Chapter 113: Ren Race’s Invasion

After Ling Xiao defeated Li Xinghui, Ling Chen fainted while Li Xinghui was left seriously injured.

Therefore, the second and fourth places remained empty.

After a few more rounds, two women made it into the four noble sons of Heavenly Peak City.

The four noble sons were Ling Xiao, Shi Yulian, Ling Yixue and Ling Yihang!

All four former noble sons were eliminated.

The Ling Clan gained great face since three of the four noble sons were from the Ling Clan.

However, not many people within the clan were happy about it because both Ling Xiao and Ling Yixue were externally recruited disciples.

Furthermore, Ling Yihang was a disciple from the branch family.

Not a single one was a true clan disciple, making the Ling Clans higher-ups feel like they had lost face, especially the three Supreme Elders. If the Ling Clan had used the namelist that they had recommended, only Ling Chen might have entered the four noble sons today.

Naturally, although they had lost face, these three noble sons were still disciples of the Ling Clan, so they didnt worry too much.

However, the other three clans were different.

Seeing the rise of the Ling Clan, they naturally worried in their hearts.

In the Li Clans pavilion.

Patriarch, I just learned that the one who killed Li Xingyun is Ling Xiao!

What? Is the source of that information reliable?

Absolutely reliable! Moreover, the results of our investigation are almost the same. Our biggest suspect was Ling Xiao. Now, its just more certain.

Ling Xiao! Humph! He must not return to the Ling Clans residence alive. This time, this old man will make a move in person!

Li Clans Patriarch hated Ling Xiao not only for killing Li Xingyun but more because Ling Xiao had defeated Li Xinghui, making the Li Clan lose face.

Furthermore, Ling Xiaos talent was too terrifying. He absolutely couldnt let such a person grow.

Nevertheless, he firmly believed that he could currently easily kill Ling Xiao with his cultivation base at Rank Seven Martial Vein.

Now, all he needed was an opportunity.

Patriarch, someone within the Ling Clan also wants the death of Ling Xiao; therefore, it will be easy to find a chance.

Good, lets go!

Li Clans Patriarch stood up, bade farewell to Heavenly Peak Citys City Lord, and left with his people to make arrangements to kill Ling Xiao.

After the Heavenly Peak Gathering ended, City Lord rewarded the top ten.

The fifth to tenth ranks all agreed to follow the imperial court and obtained an official position. Hereafter, they could be regarded as people with status in Heavenly Peak City.

As for the top four, Ling Xiao, Ling Yixue and Ling Yihang refused this status.

Their goals did not lie in this small Heavenly Peak City.

The world was so big; they all wanted to explore it.

As for Shi Yulian, she was the City Lords golden daughter, so she didnt need the status. 

However, the four of them also received another reward: one hundred Gang Qi Pills and ten pieces of low-grade spirit stones.

There was no need to describe Gang Qi Pills, which improved ones cultivation base and restored gang qi below Rank Seven Martial Vein.

The City Lord Residence was indeed wealthy. 

As for the low-grade spirit stones, they were even more precious. Generally, martial artists used them in transactions, and many things could only be purchased with them. Many martial artists didnt recognize gold and silver as currency.

In addition, spirit stones were treasures used by exploding qi stage martial artists above Rank Seven Martial Vein to improve their cultivation bases and recover their true essence.

The internal energy at the Awakening Stage was true qi.

The internal energy at the Gang Qi stage was gang qi.

The internal energy at the Exploding Qi Stage was true essence.

Therefore, Rank Six to Rank Seven Martial Vein was not just an increase in cultivation base, but rather a qualitative change.

Ling Xiao!

Ling Chen suddenly yelled.

Ling Xiao, who had just accepted the reward, frowned and looked over.

Having just woken up, Ling Chen glared at Ling Xiao and said, Ling Xiao! Dont think that just because you defeated Li Xinghui, you are stronger than me. After I recover, I will let you know what real power is.

You?

Ling Xiao snorted in disdain: The people left behind by me will never surpass me. If I, Ling Xiao cant even do that, I would just be trash.

He had this confidence.

With the Landscape Martial Soul, such a powerful trump card, if other people could surpass him, he would find tofu and batter himself to death with it.

You will know at that time! Take me back!

Ling Chen didnt want to see Ling Xiao anymore since he felt unbearably embarrassed. Such embarrassment was enough to kill.

Meanwhile, on the other side, the four people mixed among the small clans were also preparing to leave.

The Heavenly Peak Gathering is over. As I see it, the four major clans are just so-so. Other than Li Xinghuui and Ling Xiao, there is no need to persuade the others to surrender. It is better to just kill them all. One excitedly said.

Dont speak nonsense. Although the Human Race is weak now, they have abundant resources and a large territory. Now, the myriad races are fighting for supremacy, and all want to occupy the Human Races territory. My Ren Race is a newcomer, so we still need to foster our forces as much as possible.

Another one reprimanded in a low voice. 

One asked in a low voice, What if they didnt agree to surrender?

Kill without mercy! The person from before replied.

Understood.

Since you understand this, lets act separately. There are four major clans in Heavenly Peak City. Each of us is responsible for a clan. Go!

After discussing this, the four people disappeared.

A moment later on the way back to the Li Clan:

Li Clans Patriarch suddenly raised his hand to signal for everyone to stop.

Your Excellency, who are you?

A person stood not far away. He wore a strange forehead protector with the word carved on it.

This persons dress and his way of speaking were very different from the Human Race.

Mid Rank Seven Martial Vein? Patriarch Li, your strength is not bad, but I wonder if you can receive even one of my moves.

After speaking, that person suddenly blurred; his true essence erupted as his entire body emitted steam.

This was the primary characteristic of explosion qi stage martial artists.

The thing that looked like steam was the result of him burning his true essence.

So-called explosion qi was actually the burning of true essence.

Once a martial artist in the explosion qi stage burned their  true essence, their combat power would double. The higher the cultivation base, the greater the increase. This was the real reason Rank Six Martial Vein martial artists were powerless against them.

The key point of burning true essence was that there were no negative effects. As long as they didnt excessively deplete it, there would be no problems.

The Li Clan Patriarchs complexion changed. The other party was roughly 20-years-old but unexpectedly a martial artist at the Explosion Qi Stage with strength no lower than his own.

He didnt dare to be careless and hastily burned his true essence too.

In the next moment, they moved simultaneously, exchanging attacks in the sky.

That man wearing a forehead protector was very strange. Although he similarly used true essence, his attack methods dumbfounded the Li Clans Patriarch.

In the other partys hand, gang qi had a wheel-like shape and crazily spun to cut anything in its way. 

Although Li Clans Patriarch spared no efforts to resist, he eventually missed a move and was sent flying with a deep cut on his chest.

The two peoples control over their true essence was very precise. Although their attacks were very powerful, they didnt waste any true essence.

Your Excellency, who are you? My Li Clan has no grievance nor hatred with you. Why did you block and try to kill us?

Li Clans Patriarch was utterly shocked. His cultivation base was clearly equivalent to his opponents, but he had been at an inexplicable, immediate disadvantage.
