When the Northern Spirit Emperor learned of this, he was shocked and realized that Xie Feng was no ordinary person.
In an effort to win over Xie Feng, he frequently sent him various resources and boasted that if Lingnan City needed anything, the North would spare no effort to help!
The relocation of the Demon-Burying Clan Burial Clan also caused a sensation in the Sixth Universe.
But no one dared to come and investigate.
Although the Demon-Burying Clan released their soldiers, they had recently fought in the Fifth Universe War, and the blood on their precious swords was still fresh.
They threw down their hoes and picked up swords; they were still a fearsome army!
Such a military force is terrifying in the Sixth Universe.
Few dare to mess with them!
Not to mention that the Demon-Burying Clan are not human, but demons!
A demon with incredible vitality, impossible to kill!
Their natural enemy, the Emperor Phoenix Clan, has been wiped out by history.
Another nemesis is the Chaos Physique, of which there are currently no more than five people.
For a time, Xie Feng was also caught in a media storm because he brought the Demon-Burying Clan to Lingnan City.
Some people criticized him for wanting to overthrow the Sixth Universe.
Some people criticized him for being pretentious and called him a big liar.
Xie Feng ignored all of this. He had faced countless controversies and insults along the way.
He has forged a strong heart!
Only those with thick skin can live long and easily; this is absolutely true.
Night falls.
The deep moonlight spilled into the equally deep night, and everywhere was dim and silent.
Winter has arrived, bringing with it a chilly atmosphere.
Suddenly...
A subtle, unusual scent wafted on the wind!
A group of people have infiltrated Lingnan City!
Inside the city gate, the first thing you see is a winding, rugged mountain range.
This group of people, like a pack of gray wolves, entered the mountains and then rushed down to the city center!
They moved silently, like a seemingly calm tsunami that actually concealed a raging storm!
Deep in the dense forest, no one spoke, only the whooshing sound of figures rushing by!
The leader, clad in a black robe, had eyes as cold as a wolf's!
Thunder Sect, Vice Sect Master of Lei Panfeng!
The news that Elder Lei Lian had died at Xie Feng's hands quickly reached Thunder Sect.
The sect leader was furious.
The deputy sect leader immediately led his men to Lingnan City!
Just as they were about to descend the mountain, a person appeared at the end of the mountain path.
Dressed in black, holding a long sword, with his back to the crowd, his long hair was blown to both sides by the night wind.
The sword in her hand had a very simple scabbard, all its sharpness sealed within.
She turned her head, her eyes flashing with a cold light!
A Ling!
She stood alone, blocking the mountain road, her figure stark and desolate in the wind!
Lei Panfeng's pupils suddenly contracted; he sensed A Ling's extraordinary aura!
"You seem to have come here on purpose?" He narrowed his long, serpentine eyes.
"Just out for a walk and we bumped into each other by chance, but you... it's as if you came on purpose!" A Ling said with a slight smirk.
"What do you want to do?" Lei Panfeng stared intently at her.
"You may leave now!" A Ling said.
"If you could just go back like that, we wouldn't have come all this way so late at night!"
"So... who is your target? Tell me, let me hear it."
Xie Feng!
Lei Panfeng said bluntly.
Upon hearing this name, A Ling slowly tightened her grip on the Approaching Winter Sword, her cold eyes narrowing. "If you want to kill him..."
Before the words were finished, with a whoosh, the sword was drawn, and a fierce sword light shot out, striking the vice sect leader squarely!
Click!
The sword light cleaved through Lei Panfeng's head!
His body immediately gushed out a torrent of blood, and after the blood had drained, he collapsed and died!
The deputy sect leader died suddenly, leaving his subordinates stunned!
This is the deputy sect leader!
He was powerless against the woman's sword!
These people stared at A Ling in terror, all trying to guess her cultivation level.
Keep in mind that Lei Panfeng is already a Intermediate Ancient God!
Only Advanced Ancient God, Peak Ancient God, or even... a realm above the Ancient God level can kill a mid-level Ancient God...
Saint Ancestor!
There are also Great Emperor above the Saint Ancestor; such cultivation is too legendary for these people to even dream of!
Holding A Ling, Ah Approaching Winter slashed Lei Panfeng's head with a single stroke, the blade leaving no trace of blood!
"The rest..."
She raised her beautiful eyes and murmured softly, her voice as cool and clear as the moonlight.
thump!
thump!
The remaining members of the Thunder Sect immediately knelt down!
They all knelt down in a flash!
"Please, young lady, spare my life!"
These people were self-aware; killing an Ancient God was as easy as crushing an ant in her hands, let alone those of lower rank like themselves!
In critical moments, saving your life is the most important thing!
A Ling stared at them without blinking, then unleashed a sword strike, unleashing a barrage of Sword Qi that killed them all.
Leave no one alive!
Throughout the entire process, her face remained expressionless!
These are the qualities that a truly powerful individual should possess!
Stay calm!
Cold-blooded!
Extreme ruthlessness!
After killing these people, A Ling dug a pit, threw their bodies in, and buried them to be used as compost for the surrounding trees.
"Call..."
After doing all that, she let out a long sigh of relief.
She hummed an indistinct tune, put the Approaching Winter Sword away, put her hands behind her back, and walked down the mountain with ease.
She hadn't walked two steps when she saw someone!
This person had been standing at a distance, quietly watching her, and had seen everything, including her killing of the Thunder Sect members!
Looking over, A Ling saw the person standing under a large tree, their figure indistinct!
Her expression changed slightly, and she said coldly, "Come out!"
The man's figure stiffened for a moment, then he slowly emerged from behind the tree. He was dressed in a red fox fur coat, with a crimson inscription between his brows, and a hint of surprise on his face!
The Imperial Evil Lord!
When A Ling saw him, her eyes widened, seemingly showing the same surprise!
What are you doing here?
What are you doing here?
The two looked at each other, and after a moment, spoke in unison!
"You know me?" The Imperial Evil Lord raised an eyebrow, his expression somewhat strange.
"Just because you're wearing a fake mask doesn't mean I can't see through you. I'd be utterly incompetent then. Long time no see, Brother Hun!"
Seeing him, A Ling's expression became much more natural, and she smiled.
The Imperial Evil Lord also laughed and said, " A Ling, oh, no, I should address you as Master of the Clan!"
A Ling waved her hand. "So you've learned to tease me now?"
The Imperial Evil Lord shrugged and smiled.
A Ling glanced at him and said, " Brother Hun, you look a bit weak. Should we get some acupuncture?"
The Imperial Evil Lord's expression changed drastically, looking as if he had swallowed a fly and was choking on it. He hurriedly said, "Grandma, spare my dog's life!"
He recalled his miserable experience of being ripped off by a self-taught quack doctor; it was a period he didn't want to relive...
A Ling said, "Just kidding! By the way, how did you end up in Sixth Universe? I remember you were in Fifth Universe."
The Imperial Evil Lord chuckled, then crossed his arms and leaned against a large tree, speaking casually, "My clone was cultivating diligently in the Fifth Universe, but then he met someone—a restless fellow—and followed him around, ending up here."
(I had a brain fart in the middle of the night and mixed up the order of chapters 867 and 869. I'll fix it tomorrow.)
