Chapter 167: A Nail in One’s Eyes

Ling Xiao had once heard from Lin Ze that the largest faction of the Ren Race was called Black Dragon Union, symbolized by a black dragon. 

At present, most of the Ren Races martial artists in the human territories were disciples or martial artists of Black Dragon Union.

This Black Dragon Unions giant mechanical ship was strange, but the people onboard shocked Ling Xiao even more.

There were actually three Peak Rank Nine Martial Vein martial artists.

One was White Cloud Governor Wan Ben.

Although Ling Xiao hadnt previously met this person, his portrait could be found in many places in Hollow Cloud City.

As for the other two, Ling Xiao didnt recognize them. However, one thing was certain: one of them was from the Blue-Eyed Race and the other from the Ren Race.

Although these two races were quite similar to the Human Race in appearance, they had their own special features that made them easily identifiable. 

Murong Shao actually ran onto this ship.

Lord Governor! Lord Governor, save me!

The panicked Murong Shao crawled onto the ship before being stopped by a martial artist of the Ren Race.

Wan Ben complained with a gloomy face, How dare you run over here? Truly stupid!

Although Lin Ze knew that he had colluded with the Ren and Blue-Eyed Races, there was no evidence. If the Human Races Sacred Dynasty heard of this matter, Wan Ben, the Governor, would be helpless.

Without his power, the Ren and Blue-Eyed Races wouldnt regard him highly. How could he realize his wild ambitions then?

Wan Bens voice was filled with great anger.

Accompanying his rebuke, a powerful and sinister aura that forced other people to submit flared.

Murong Shao bore the brunt of it and actually vomited a mouthful of blood as his complexion turned deathly pale.

Lord Governor, theres no need to be so tense. I will send out several Rank Seven Martial Vein Martial Masters. Within a radius of one mile, no outsider will survive!

The Ren Races Peak Rank Nine Martial Vein Martial Master smiled. With a causal wave, over 20 people rushed out.

Below the Transcendent Realm, no one could see circumstances from a mile away, which gave the Ren Races Rank Nine Martial Vein Martial Master his confidence.

After all, he didnt know that Ling Xiao was different.

Speak, what happened?

Wan Ben withdrew his strong killing intent and glared at Murong Shao. This officer racked his brains to send you into the Hidden Dragon Battalion. Dont tell this officer that your identity has already been exposed.

Lord Governor, you can rest assured that this subordinates identity hasnt been exposed.

Murong Shao hastily explained: Its just that this subordinate offended a person named Ling Xiao in the Hidden Dragon Battalion, and that shameless person has been chasing me. While fleeing in confusion, I arrived here.

Ling Xiao? Why does this name sound familiar?

Wan Ben frowned.

A person walked to his side; she unexpectedly was Shi Yulian.

Reporting to the Lord Governor, this Ling Xiao is a person from Heavenly Peak Citys Ling Clan. I heard from my father that he severely injured Lord Fei Mu and killed Lord Fei Yun. At that time, his cultivation base was just Initial Rank Six Martial Vein.

Thats right, Lord Governor! My father also told this subordinate the same.

Another person stood; he was Li Xinghui.

Now, these two peoples cultivation bases had already reached Peak Rank Six Martial Vein. Moreover, Li Xinghui was a bit stronger than Shi Yulian. Sure enough, after submitting and pledging allegiance to Wan Ben, they had gained a lot of benefits. Presumably, it was not impossible for them to become Martial Masters with time.

Crash!

Before Wan Ben could decide anything, that Ren Race Peak Rank Nine Martial Vein Martial Maste furiously crushed a cup in his hand.

Ling Xiao! Killing a genius of my race! I want him dead!

Wan Ben looked at Murong Shao and said indifferently: Murong Shao, did you hear that? This officer will bestow you a Quasi-Transcendent Martial Art and a True Essence Pill!

Many thanks, Lord Governor.

Murong Shao was overjoyed. Beyond his expectations, not only was he not killed today, but he also got such benefits.

Dont be so impatient to thank me. I gave you these things, but you have to get rid of that Ling Xiao within a year; otherwise, you will be the one to die. Scram now.

Wan Ben waved his hand as if chasing a dog away.

Murong Shao hastily nodded before leaving.

He didnt dare to return the same way since he was afraid of encountering Ling Xiao. Now, he wanted to find a place to cultivate and breakthrough to Rank Seven Martial Vein Realm. Like that, coupled with a Quasi-Transcendent Martial Art, he wouldnt need to fear Ling Xiao.

Governor Wan, this person isnt any good, is he?

After Murong Shao left, the Ren Race Rank Nine Martial Vein Martial Master inquired with a frown.

Your Excellency can rest assured. Murong Shao is just a discarded pawn. It would be best if he succeeded, but even if he failed, he will also cover up another persons existence.

Wan Ben smiled and said, Ling Xiao will not survive a month.

Hahaha! It turns out that Your Excellency Governor is fully prepared.

The Rank Nine Martial Vein Martial Master laughed.

As for Li Xinghui and Shi Yulian, they felt that something was wrong.

Only after you personally witnessed or exchanged blows with him, would you understand how terrifying Ling Xiao was.

These two Rank Nine Martial Vein Martial Masters had underestimated their enemy too much.

But they didnt dare to speak a word.

Although Ling Xiao wanted to continue eavesdropping on these peoples plots, these people were very cautious, and the huge mechanical ship actually sailed away.

However, those dispatched Rank Seven Martial Vein Martial Masters didnt return and continued searching the terrain.

Ling Xiao knew that the situation was bad, so he hastily fled. 

Along the way, he encountered people from the Hidden Dragon Battalion, but he didnt mention the ship nor Murong Shao. In any case, even if he talked about it, they might not necessarily believe him.

He just said that a lot of Martial Masters were coming and asked them to retreat.

At first, some people didnt believe him, but after an injured Shi Lei rushed back and said something similar, they recognized that Ling Xiao was not just talking nonsense.

Although the Hidden Dragon Battalions disciples were geniuses, they were not the opponents of over 20 Martial Masters. They could only quickly retreat to the Hidden Dragon Battalion.

However, during their retreat, the Martial Masters intercepted and attacked the Hidden Dragon Battalions disciples.

Fortunately, reinforcements arrived in time.

Dai Yuling, Hua Nongying, and General Ninth Month appeared together.

Hua Nongying was not bad with a cultivation base the same as Shi Leis: Initial Rank Seven Martial Vein Martial Master.

Dai Yulian and General Ninth Month, however, were truly terrifying. 

This was the reason that Dai Yulian and General Ninth Month didnt participate in this Hidden Dragon Battalions military merit competition but rather competed with the other eleven Tiger Guards.

In other words, this military merit competition was divided into two sections: the Tiger Guard Group and the Hidden Dragon Group. Otherwise, the disciples of the Hidden Dragon Battalion would certainly suffer a big loss.

With Dai Yulian and General Ninth Month presented, those martial masters of the Ren Race retreated.

Most of the Hidden Dragon Battalions disciples safely returned, but thirsty still died, with most of the deaths occurring on the retreat.

Naturally, only Murong Shao knew that eight had been killed by Ling Xiao.

Merely, Murong Shao didnt mention this matter.

It was not that he didnt want to reveal it but that he didnt dare to say it. If this matter were further investigated, he would be in more trouble than Ling Xiao.

After checking the group, General Ninth Month added up everyones military merit points.

Ling Xiao didnt choose to distribute the points himself but rather let the Hidden Dragon Battalions artifact decide. Like that, no one would have any complaints.

After all, this was not the first time they had used this artifact, so it had already received the recognition of the Hidden Dragon Battalions disciples.
