Old Trick, New Target? One Move to Capture the Enemy
Uncle Boya's calm demeanor made everyone's expressions strange, wondering if this kid was playing tricks again.
"Uncle Boya, it is an honor for you that my master has invited you to join the War God Palace. Do you intend to refuse?"
The woman in golden armor snorted coldly, her face full of ferocity. She didn't believe it and felt that this bastard was lying.
"Hey! Can't you hear me? I've made myself perfectly clear: if you want me to join the War God Palace, you'll have to ask my master first!"
Uncle Boya Ya was arrogant and unyielding, and he confronted him head-on.
"Are you courting death?" The woman in golden armor was enraged, her golden hair fluttering in the wind, exuding an aura of power and might that seemed to encompass the vastness of the world.
"Ruyi, step down."
At that moment, the sound coming from inside the sedan chair calmed her anger.
"Uncle Boya, I'll give you a chance. Let your master come out and see me!"
The man's voice was full of authority and a palpable sense of impending battle.
He wanted to see what kind of person could subdue Uncle Boya.
"Okay! You said it yourself, so don't regret it later!"
Uncle Boya nodded emphatically, then his eyes suddenly lit up. He pointed deep into the temple and said loudly.
"He's here! You're all going to die!"
Following the direction of his finger, everyone could see a figure vaguely appearing in the depths of the distant mist, breaking through the poisonous gas to form a passage and slowly walking out.
This was an exceptionally handsome man, yet exuding a sinister aura. From beginning to end, he radiated arrogance and domineering behavior, possessing a demonic quality.
"Is this the esteemed person Uncle Boya mentioned? Who is he?"
Everyone looked completely bewildered, not understanding what was going on.
The golden-armored woman named Ruyi, after a moment of surprise, pointed at Ling Xiao and exclaimed, "It's you?"
She recognized Ling Xiao; wasn't he the person she encountered when entering the ancient city?
She was about to teach this person a lesson, but her own family stopped her. She never expected to run into him here.
The woman in golden armor sneered, a cruel smile playing on her lips, and looked at Ling Xiao with disdain.
"Pretending to be something you're not, you're just a piece of trash who's only halfway through the Great Dao, what are you pretending to be a master for? You spoke disrespectfully to my master before, this time we'll settle both the old and new scores."
Her words immediately caused an uproar.
Everyone was just trying to recall who this demonic man was, who this big shot was, and searching for any clues.
Unexpectedly, the golden-armored woman revealed the man's background, revealing him to be a useless person at the first stage of the Great Dao, even inferior to Uncle Boya.
After all that, they turned out to be birds of a feather, all they did was pretend to be mysterious and charlatan.
They even offended a powerful figure in the War God Palace, and since the two sides had a grudge, that makes things even more interesting.
For a moment, everyone's gaze towards Ling Xiao turned mocking and playful.
They wanted to see how this guy would handle things.
Only Uncle Boya looked "excited," spreading the news everywhere as if he wanted to stir up trouble, afraid that a fight wouldn't break out.
Ling Xiao swaggered forward, glancing indifferently at the four golden giants and the golden sedan chair.
"So it's you guys, showing off all the way here."
Who in their right mind would go out dressed like that and flaunt it in public?
It's one thing to be pretentious, but to have absolutely no taste, sitting in a sedan chair like a dead man, it's just unpleasant to look at.
"What did you say?" The woman in golden armor looked angry, though she didn't understand what "showing off" meant.
But judging from Ling Xiao's expression, it was clearly not a kind word; he was cursing.
"I'm telling you, you ignorant fools, this is my sacred ground. All irrelevant people, get out of here right now, or you'll face the consequences!"
Ling Xiao coldly shouted, his words showing no mercy whatsoever.
However, everyone burst into mocking laughter.
"Haha... here we go again, young man. You're too late. He's already used that trick on you."
"That's too perfunctory. They should at least change it up a bit. It's just that 'enlightened sage' look, all compassion and sanctimonious hypocrisy..."
As someone spoke, they gestured, revealing themselves to be the same old man that Uncle Boya had just transformed into.
This made everyone laugh.
I thought the person Uncle Boya was talking about was someone important, but it turned out to be just an unknown clown.
Ling Xiao ignored the ridicule of the crowd, glancing indifferently at Uncle Boya. The deeper meaning behind his glance was probably only known to the latter.
Uncle Boya spread his hands innocently, pretending to know nothing, but in fact, he was feeling guilty and was panicking inside.
He wanted the successor of the War God Palace to fight Ling Xiao, preferably to eliminate Ling Xiao, so that he could reap the benefits and make a quick getaway.
However, Ling Xiao had probably seen through his little scheme, so he panicked and tried his best to appear innocent.
"What a disappointment..."
At this moment, the important figure inside the sedan chair let out a sound of regret.
"I thought you were a worthy opponent, but it turned out to be you."
"Disappointed? If you're disappointed, then leave. This is my territory."
Ling Xiao raised an eyebrow and gave a wicked smile.
"You scoundrel! You still dare to spout nonsense even now!"
The golden-armored woman was furious and could no longer restrain herself. She charged out like a golden divine ray.
The immense blood energy was vast and boundless, igniting the Celestial Sphere void and pressing down.
Everyone felt as if hundreds of suns were crashing down on them; although it wasn't directed at them, they still felt a suffocating sense of oppression.
"As expected of the woman beside War God Palace, her suppressive power is so strong that she would probably have few rivals even in the realm of half-step Great Dao first transformation."
"Her blood energy is like a rosy cloud; this seems to be the Crimson Sun Dao Body! For a woman to possess such a supremely yang body shows her domineering nature!"
Everyone was amazed; the woman's strength was beyond their expectations, and she also possessed a special, naturally occurring physique that made her extremely domineering.
Even in the entire Origin True Realm, she would be considered a top-tier genius, yet she ended up as someone else's maid, which shows just how powerful the being inside the sedan chair was.
They haven't shown their faces yet, maintaining an air of mystery.
Facing the oppressive presence of the golden-armored woman, Ling Xiao stood firm in the void until the golden light reached him. Then, he raised his hand and unleashed a punch.
Boom...
Two powerful forces collided at a point, Ling Xiao's fist struck the golden light, touching a soft object.
"Die!" the woman roared, tearing through the vast void.
However, the next moment she felt an astonishing force coming from her opponent's fist, which instantly shattered her body.
The golden-armored woman was sent flying backward, a large hole appearing in her chest, golden blood piercing through the void beneath her feet.
She was both shocked and furious, her eyes filled with deep horror. However, her anger quickly clouded her judgment, and she unleashed another deadly attack on her opponent.
Faced with the golden-armored woman's all-out attack, Ling Xiao raised his hand and grabbed the entire void, kneading it and going straight to its source. He then grabbed her by the neck and lifted her up in his hand.
The battle ended in the blink of an eye.
