Chapter 12640 No need to bother with this kind of person
"Gu Qingyao, you always seem to be relying on your status, thinking that with the support of the Lord of Fire Cloud City, you can provoke others without restraint."

"But I want to tell you that in this world, strength is the hard truth that determines everything. Under the watchful eyes of the public, I may temporarily tolerate you for the sake of my face, but this does not mean that I am really afraid of you."

Zhang Ding's eyes were cold, and a disdainful sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. His voice was low and fierce: "Gu Qingyao, your father is the Lord of Huoyun City, but in this remote place, if I get rid of you quietly, do you think anyone will know? Maybe your father will never know that it was his self-righteous daughter who lost her life here."

Gu Qingyao frowned upon hearing this, but she did not show too much panic. She just shook her head and said, "Zhang Ding, you are indeed very strong, but your realm is just the same as mine. Are you sure you can defeat me?"

At this point, she pointed at Ling Xiao and said, "What's more, add him."

Zhang Ding's eyes flashed with sarcasm: "Oh? Really? Gu Qingyao, you seem to be very confident in your own strength. But I want to tell you that I am more confident in my own strength. You may not know it yet, but in fact, I have already broken through the shackles of the Divine Body Realm and entered the Divine Transformation Realm!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the aura around Zhang Ding suddenly exploded, and an incomparably terrifying force instantly filled the entire space.

Gu Qingyao only felt a strong sense of oppression, as if an invisible mountain was pressing on their hearts.

They were shocked to find that Zhang Ding's strength had actually reached the divine transformation realm!

At this moment, Gu Qingyao's face also became solemn. She could feel the powerful aura of Zhang Ding, this was indeed an opponent that should not be underestimated.

However, she did not back down, but straightened her back and prepared to meet the upcoming challenges.

After all, this was a battle of life and death, and it was impossible for her to avoid it.

"Are you still planning on doing it?"

Zhang Ding smiled: "You don't think that kid can be of any help to you, do you? Without you, that kid is just a bug."

"..."

Gu Qingyao showed a strange expression. Bug? Ling Xiao had just killed a giant lava python at the Divine Transformation Realm. Even if Zhang Ding was similar to that giant python, Ling Xiao couldn't be a bug.

With her included, there's no chance that Zhang Ding will win.

Sighing, she continued, "Zhang Ding, since you work for my City Lord's Mansion, I don't intend to kill you, so go."

"Haha, hahahaha!" Zhang Ding suddenly burst into laughter, and his laughter was full of arrogance and disdain, as if in his eyes, Gu Qingyao and Ling Xiao were both insignificant ants.

"You're still bluffing there, I..." Before he could finish his sarcastic words, a sharp cold light had silently cut through the sky and went straight to his throat.

Zhang Ding's laughter froze instantly, his eyes widened, filled with fear and disbelief. He tried to dodge, but the cold light was so fast that it pierced his throat in the blink of an eye.

"Pfft!"

Blood spurted out, and Zhang Ding's body trembled violently. There was still an arrogant smile on his face, but at this moment it looked extremely funny and sad.

"Why bother talking to this kind of person? Just kill him!" Ling Xiao's voice was calm and indifferent. He glanced at Gu Qingyao indifferently, as if telling her that the best way to deal with such an arrogant guy is to take direct action.

Gu Qingyao looked at Ling Xiao, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

She didn't expect Ling Xiao to attack so decisively, and the attack was a fatal blow. She didn't expect Ling Xiao to be so strong. Although this terrifying attack was a sneak attack, it could kill Zhang Ding in seconds. He was definitely much stronger than her.

Before he died, Zhang Ding still couldn't believe that he was hit like this. He stared at Ling Xiao with wide eyes, as if he wanted to find the answer from Ling Xiao's eyes. But Ling Xiao just looked at him coldly, as if he was looking at a dead person.

"In my eyes, you are nothing but a cicada that can only chirp. So annoying!" Ling Xiao curled his lips in disdain and raised his hand to shoot out a ball of fire. Zhang Ding's body was instantly engulfed by the flames and eventually turned into a pile of ashes.

When the wind blew, the ashes scattered everywhere, as if telling the world that this arrogant guy had completely disappeared from this world.

Gu Qingyao smiled bitterly and said, "It doesn't matter if you kill him, but you will be targeted by the bloodthirsty mercenaries. They are a group of monsters who kill without blinking an eye. Even my father is very afraid of them."

"Will they know?"

Ling Xiao asked.

"meeting!"

Gu Qingyao said: "Every member of the bloodthirsty mercenary group has a blood curse on them. This is originally to prevent them from betraying, but if they are killed, they can also bleed a special smell on the murderer."

"We can't smell this kind of scent. Only those who cast a blood curse can."

"It doesn't matter."

Ling Xiao waved his hand and said, "If they want to come, then come. I don't mind killing a few more people!"

Immediately, he turned and left.

Gu Qingyao hesitated for a moment, then followed him. She was not stupid. With Ling Xiao's strength plus her experience, it would be easier for them to survive in the Huoyun Mountains.

"What are you looking for?"

On the way, Gu Qingyao couldn't help but ask.

"Heart of Fire!"

Ling Xiao said without hesitation.

In fact, many people know about the Heart of Fire, but few can find it. Ling Xiao still has to rely on Long Yun’s memory to find it.

In order to practice the art of dragon transformation, Long Yun went to find the hearts of the five elements.

The general location is clear.

If Long Yun was still alive at this time, it would be easier for him to find him.

"Heart of Fire! Is there really such a thing in this world?" Gu Qingyao was very surprised: "Let me help you, where are you going to find it?"

"Yanxia Cave, do you know?"

Ling Xiao asked.

"You are actually going to Yanxia Cave?" A look of surprise appeared on Gu Qingyao's face. She leaned slightly closer to Ling Xiao, with a hint of caution in her voice.

"That is exactly our goal this time... My father once mentioned that Yanxia Cave is hidden deep in the mountains. In the cave there is a flaming tiger king, whose strength is comparable to the lava python you killed earlier."

"But because it is a tiger king, it has some special things hidden on its body. It is said to be of great help to those who practice fire-attributed techniques."

When Ling Xiao heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and a look of joy appeared on his face.

He already knew that the Heart of Fire was hidden in Yanxia Cave, but he just didn't know its exact location.

Hearing Gu Qingyao's narration at this moment was like a lighthouse in the fog, guiding him in the direction of progress.

"Take me there!" he said without hesitation, with a hint of urgency in his voice.

Gu Qingyao looked at his eagerness, and a sense of inexplicable joy surged in her heart. She nodded and said gently: "Well! Since you want to go, I will take you there."

Ling Xiao knew that with Gu Qingyao's guidance, he was one step closer to finding the Heart of Fire.
