Chapter 13167 Invitation from the Palace Master

Although Ling Xiao knew something about the history of the Soul Clan, he had never really come into contact with this clan. He never expected that the seemingly weak and helpless girl beside him would have such an extraordinary identity.

Thinking of this, Ling Xiao's eyes fell on Xiao Lianzhu again, and a complex emotion surged in his heart. There was both curiosity and desire to explore the unknown, and a faint worry about the possible changes.

After all, the entanglement between the Soul Clan, the Demon Sect and the Holy Hall is far-reaching, and he himself is in the midst of this complex vortex of the martial arts world. Every decision may affect the future direction.

However, no matter what, Ling Xiao understood that Xiao Lianzhu was his friend and someone he was willing to protect with his life.

No matter what her status was, this would not change. He secretly made up his mind that no matter what challenges he faced in the future, he would stand by her side and face them with her.

"No matter what race she is, she is my, Ling Xiao's, relative." Ling Xiao's voice was filled with unquestionable firmness. His tightly pursed lips trembled slightly, revealing a hint of inner struggle and determination, but in the end, they were all overwhelmed by the deep family affection.

His eyes were like the sun shining through the clouds, bright and warm as he stared directly at the little girl in front of him. The bond of affection was quietly established between the two of them, unbreakable.

"Good boy, don't look at this matter with a worldly perspective. You really have a promising future." The Demon Soul King's voice was filled with some approval and relief. His smile seemed particularly dazzling in the dim space, as if it could illuminate all the haze.

He patted Ling Xiao's shoulder gently, which was a recognition and encouragement from an elder to a younger person.

"You go ahead and do your work. I'll leave this little girl to me. In fact, she has the perfect blood for practicing soul arts, and she is the best candidate to inherit my legacy.

Although you are gifted in the spiritual aspect, far superior to others, even better than this girl, but you know too many things, and you may not take my skills seriously. Many of my unique skills require people to concentrate on them to understand their essence, and I guess you don’t have the heart to learn them. "

Ling Xiao felt a warm current in his heart when he heard this, and he agreed deeply. He knew that what the Demon Soul King said was true. Although he had made some achievements in martial arts, it was because he was too good in other aspects that he did not rely entirely on soul skills. Soul skills were only auxiliary after all.

Xiao Lianzhu is different, she can specialize in soul magic.

He looked at the little girl deeply, his eyes full of tenderness and reluctance, but more of it was expectation for her future.

"Yes!" Ling Xiao nodded heavily. Although his voice was light, it was full of unquestionable determination. He turned around and walked out of the magic needle space with firm steps. Every step he took showed his determination and belief in the future.

He knew that he could not always be immersed in his own emotional world. The road of martial arts was long and difficult. He had more challenges waiting for him to conquer and more responsibilities to shoulder.

The sun shines through the window lattice, onto Ling Xiao's departing figure, giving him a layer of golden light. In this world where martial arts is respected, Ling Xiao is writing his own legend in his own way.

And the little girl, under the guidance of the Demon Soul King, began her extraordinary journey of soul magic. The fate of the two seemed to be tightly tied together at this moment, and they were moving towards the peak of martial arts together.

The moment he left the cave, Ling Xiao suddenly frowned. The sunlight sprinkled on the cave entrance, stretching his figure out, forming a sharp contrast with the darkness inside the cave. His brows were furrowed, as if they could catch a wisp of uneasy wind, which was an instinctive reaction to unknown threats.

Not far from him stood a man in black armor. The black armor reflected almost no light in the sunlight, as if it could swallow up all the light around it, making him look like a ghost walking out of the night, mysterious and majestic.

The man's figure was tall and straight, and his muscles were faintly visible under the black armor, revealing his extraordinary strength and well-trained aura. He stood there quietly, his eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, staring straight at Ling Xiao, which made people shudder.

Ling Xiao instantly entered combat status. His body moved slightly, and the aura around him began to condense. A faint blood-red light seeped out of his body. That was his unique bloodthirsty sword soul, which was automatically released in moments of crisis, adding a bit of inviolable majesty to him.

His eyes became as sharp as an eagle's, scanning the surroundings, looking for other possible threats.

"Don't be nervous, I'm from Fuzun Mansion, and I have something to talk to you about." The black-armored man's voice was low and magnetic, with a barely perceptible smile, breaking the tense atmosphere around them.

He took a step forward slowly, and the black armor made a slight friction sound, which was particularly clear in the quiet environment.

"Fu Zunfu..." Ling Xiao repeated in a low voice, the word stirred up ripples in his heart.

He realized that the other party had a close connection with his good brother Long Chen. The trust and respect for Long Chen made him unconsciously relax his tense nerves, but his many years of martial arts career made him develop a habit of caution, and his vigilance did not decrease in the slightest.

With sharp eyes, he carefully looked at the black-armored man from Fuzun Mansion, trying to find more information from the other party's words and actions.

Long Chen was his good brother, and the two had experienced countless hardships together. That deep friendship made him willing to believe where Long Chen was, but in this world where martial arts was respected, trust and suspicion often coexisted.

He knew very well that even if the other person came from the same place as Long Chen, it did not necessarily mean that they were friends.

Therefore, while Ling Xiao put away the bloodthirsty sword spirit, he was also secretly on guard, ready to deal with any possible accidents at any time.

In his heart, he was filled with curiosity and anticipation about the unknown, as well as vigilance and precaution against possible danger. The two emotions intertwined together, making his eyes more complex and profound.

"Follow me." The black-armored man's words were brief and powerful. Before he finished speaking, he had turned into a black lightning, soared into the air, cut through the sky, and rushed in a direction completely opposite to the Demon-Suppressing City.

Ling Xiao's eyes followed the black shadow closely. Although he had doubts in his heart, he was more curious about the unknown and had a hint of excitement that was barely perceptible.

He took a deep breath, mobilized the internal energy, stretched out his body, and followed closely. The two of them walked one in front and one behind, leaving beautiful trails between the blue sky and white clouds.

During the flight, Ling Xiao carefully felt the changing atmosphere around him. The wind whistled past his ears, bringing with it the freshness and freedom unique to the mountains and forests.

He noticed that although the black-armored man was flying fast, he was unusually stable. He deftly resolved every fluctuation in the air flow, revealing his profound martial arts skills. (End of this chapter)
