"Spirit Venerable Xiu Ling, Nether Demon Venerable, Leader of the Mysterious Spirit Cult."
Killing intent flashed through Qin Hao's eyes, then vanished in an instant.
Even setting aside the Time Sword Lord's grudge,
True Lord Tianyan, the Flamefire Realm Master, and the others
had nearly died because of Spirit Venerable Xiu Ling!
Even True Lord Tianyan, the strongest among them, was still healing in his Self-World.
That alone showed how perilous it had been.
"Qin Hao, don't act rashly." Lingxiaozi clearly sensed Qin Hao's killing intent and hurriedly said, "Spirit Venerable Xiu Ling and the other two have cultivated for an exceedingly long time. All three are powerful Nine-Tribulations Sovereigns. You may be strong now, but they stand together. They still pose a considerable threat to you."
Lingxiaozi hesitated, then continued, "Even if you intend to strike, now isn't the best time. There's plenty of time ahead. No need to settle this in a single moment."
Avenge the Time Sword Lord!
How could Lingxiaozi not want that?
But he did not want to force that burden of Cause and Effect onto Qin Hao. After all, it was Lingxiaozi who had passed the Time Sword Lord's legacy on to him.
Ultimately, Qin Hao's ties of Cause and Effect to the Time Sword Lord were not as great as one might imagine. If anything, those ties were stronger for the Time Doppelganger.
Besides,
Lingxiaozi did not want Qin Hao to fall into danger over it.
In his view, Qin Hao had advanced to Eight-Tribulation Sovereign and his overall strength had risen in a straight line, but his opponents were still long-established Nine-Tribulations Sovereigns.
And the three always stood together!
Under those circumstances, Slaying them would be even harder.
Qin Hao shook his head. His voice was perfectly calm. "Don't worry, Elder Ling.
