Chapter 12644: Don’t learn to rob people if you don’t have the ability

"Well, I won't say any more nonsense. You two better be smart and hand over what you took from here."

"If you are willing to cooperate, I can consider letting you die in a more dignified way, so that it won't be so ugly."

"But if you insist on being my enemy and refuse to hand over your things, then I have to tell you that the way I deal with you is not as simple as you think."

Zhang Kang had a grim smile on his face, as if he had already won, and had completely defeated Ling Xiao and Gu Qingyao. In his eyes, these two people were nothing more than pawns in his hands, and he could crush them at any time.

Gu Qingyao's face turned pale. She didn't expect that these guys who were so respectful to her like pugs in Huoyun City would become so scary here.

Like a ferocious wolf, he bared his sharp fangs, ready to tear her into pieces at any time.

She thought Zhang Ding was just an isolated case, but unexpectedly, it was the same for everyone.

No wonder her father told her that the world was not as simple as she imagined, and that it was very chaotic and scary. He told her not to trust people easily.

Zhang Kang and others looked at Ling Xiao and Gu Qingyao with smugness, as if they had already seen them about to fall.

The poor guys had no idea how terrifying Ling Xiao was. At this moment, they were still fantasizing about a victory.

"I don't know where your confidence comes from. The strongest among you is only at the peak of the Divine Body Realm. Who gave you the courage?"

Ling Xiao shook his head.

It’s fine as for Zhang Ding, because he has already broken through to the Divine Transformation Realm. He just hid his strength and thought that he could control everything. But what on earth are these pieces of trash in front of him thinking?

Even if you want to rob someone of their money, you'll need to have the strength to do it!

"Who told you that our strongest man is only at the peak of the Divine Body Realm?"

Zhang Kang sneered and said, "I'm not afraid to tell you that not long ago, Zhang Ding broke through the Divine Transformation Realm. I have already sent him a letter. It won't be long before he rushes over."

Hearing this, Ling Xiao couldn't help but laugh.

Let a dead person come to help?
He felt sorry for these people.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Hand over the things you took from here quickly, and I can consider letting you die more easily. Otherwise, being burned to ashes in this blazing fire, the pain and despair you will feel is beyond your imagination."

Zhang Kang's eyes were as sharp as knives as he stared at Ling Xiao and Gu Qingyao fiercely. His voice was cold and firm, as if he had foreseen the other party's tragic end.

"Burn it with fire? Humph, that's indeed a good idea!" Ling Xiao showed a disdainful sneer on his face. He gently pulled Gu Qingyao over and protected her behind him, with a firm and unyielding light flashing in his eyes.

Then, the array disk in his hand flickered, and the light overflowed, and the Five Fire God Flame Array was instantly activated. This array was so powerful that even a True Yuan Realm warrior could be burned to ashes, let alone these guys in front of him.

In the Fire Cloud Mountains, the Five Fire God Flame Formation was like a fish in water, and its power was doubled. The flames shot up into the sky, and the flames were blazing, as if they were going to set the entire cave on fire.

Zhang Kang and the others were shocked when they saw this. They had not expected Ling Xiao to launch such a decisive attack, and to use such a powerful formation.

"Retreat!" Zhang Kang shouted in fear and turned to escape. However, the Five Fire Gods' Flame Formation had blocked their retreat, and the flames instantly engulfed them.

"Ah--!" A shrill scream rang out. Zhang Kang and others struggled and screamed in the sea of fire, but to no avail.

"Spare your life, spare your life!"

Zhang Kang looked at Ling Xiao in horror. How could he have imagined that this young man who looked only sixteen or seventeen years old could be such a terrifying being.

At the moment of his death, he suddenly thought of something. Zhang Ding hasn't come yet. Has he been killed too?
Unfortunately, no one would tell them the answer. Their bodies were quickly burned in the flames and eventually turned into wisps of smoke and dissipated into the air.

Gu Qingyao stared blankly at everything in front of her, an indescribable feeling welling up in her heart.

She didn't expect Ling Xiao to be so powerful and solve all the troubles with just one move.

At the same time, she also felt fortunate that she met Ling Xiao, otherwise she would probably have died today.

Ling Xiao looked at everything in the sea of fire with an expressionless face, and there was no ripple in his heart.

These people wanted to steal his things and even wanted to kill him and Gu Qingyao, so he naturally would not show mercy.

The Five Fire God Flame Formation gradually dissipated, leaving behind a charred land and a burnt smell in the air.

Ling Xiao took back the formation plate, raised his hand and waved it, collecting all the storage rings of those people.

Immediately, he took out a top-grade human-level magic weapon and ten thousand top-grade spirit stones and gave them to Gu Qingyao as a thank-you gift for being a guide.

"I can't have it!"

Gu Qingyao shook her head and said, "You not only helped my father find the things, but also saved me. How could I take your things? Besides... these are too precious. If I take them, it would be a crime to possess a treasure, and it would harm me and my family."

Ling Xiao thought about it and immediately took out a storage ring and said, "I can't give you nothing. This storage ring contains 100 million low-grade spirit stones, and there are also elixirs suitable for you. Take it. Don't refuse this."

"it is good!"

This time, Gu Qingyao did not refuse but took it. If she refused again, it would be a bit ungrateful.

"By the way, what are your plans next? Will you continue exploring in this mountain range, or will you have another destination?" Gu Qingyao looked at Ling Xiao with a hint of concern on her face.

Ling Xiao pondered for a moment and replied, "I plan to practice here for a while and digest the opportunities and insights I have gained. Then, I will go to Tuzhou."

"Tuzhou?" Gu Qingyao was a little surprised. "That's a faraway place. Why do you want to go there?"

Ling Xiao smiled slightly and explained: "I have some things that I must complete in Tuzhou. Although the journey is long, I must go."

Gu Qingyao nodded, seeming to understand Ling Xiao's decision, but she felt a little disappointed.

She thought for a moment, then said, "Since you want to practice, why not go to our City Lord's Mansion. The City Lord's Mansion of Huoyun City is our family's territory, and practicing there is definitely the safest choice. You can practice there in peace, and no one will dare to disturb you."

Ling Xiao heard this, and a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes. He really needed a safe place to refine the Heart of Fire, and the City Lord's Mansion was undoubtedly an excellent choice.

"also!"

Ling Xiao nodded.

So, the two of them left the Huoyun Mountains and headed towards Huoyun City.
