Chapter 13172 He is not an ordinary person

There was an unyielding light in Ling Xiao's eyes, which showed his cherishment for life and an accurate analysis of his own destiny.

Hearing this, the corners of Yang Meng's mouth twitched slightly, and a hint of surprise and admiration flashed in his eyes.

He had indeed never expected that Ling Xiao could so keenly perceive the trap behind his proposal. This kind of intelligence and insight was rare among the younger generation. He was silent for a moment, as if he was re-examining this seemingly young but extremely cunning opponent in front of him.

"." After a short silence, Yang Meng finally spoke, his voice more solemn and serious. He knew that facing such an opponent, any underestimation would be a fatal mistake.

"Indeed, the conditions I proposed, in a sense, do increase the difficulty of your survival." Yang Meng admitted frankly, his eyes deep, as if he could see into people's hearts.

"But I never thought that you would point this out so directly and reject my 'good intentions'. Ling Xiao, you are smarter than I thought."

At this point, Yang Meng couldn't help but chuckle, which contained both recognition of Ling Xiao and self-mockery of her own negligence. "However, this is exactly the opponent I expect. If you agree so easily, it would be boring for me."

He changed the subject, his tone became firm and resolute:
"In that case, let's fight! Although I, Yang Meng, am not a fighter, I cannot remain silent when facing an opponent like you. If you can escape from my pursuit, then the grudge between us will be forgiven from now on. This is my promise to you."

After saying this, Yang Meng's aura suddenly increased, and a strong pressure emanated from his body, compressing the air around him as if it had solidified. His eyes were like torches, tightly locked on Ling Xiao, like a beast ready to pounce on its prey at any time.

"You want to let bygones be bygones? Haha, I still have time to settle accounts with you." Ling Xiao's sneer contained a barely perceptible hint of anger and determination. His eyes were like torches, staring straight at Yang Meng, as if to penetrate the other's soul.

"What you did to Zhu'er is like a brand engraved on my heart. Whenever the night is quiet, the anger is like a wildfire that can't be quenched. As long as you, the culprit, are still alive, my fire of revenge will never be extinguished."

When Yang Meng heard this, his face instantly darkened. He didn't expect Ling Xiao to be so obsessed with past grudges that he would even risk his life.

"Good boy, I originally wanted to let you go because you are young and promising, but you hold a grudge like that. Then I have no choice but to kill you and end this feud." His voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, revealing a strong murderous intent.

As the words fell, the anger in Yang Meng's chest seemed to be ignited and burned fiercely. It was not only the anger towards Ling Xiao, but also the self-blame and unwillingness that he, as the master of Huangquan Bulao Mountain, had failed to protect his disciples.

He felt an unprecedented humiliation, as if Ling Xiao's rejection was a trampling on his dignity.

"I don't need you to let me go, because in this martial arts world, only strength can determine life and death." Ling Xiao shook his head, his tone revealing an unquestionable confidence and pride.

He knew very well that facing a strong man like Yang Meng, any retreat or begging for mercy would be futile, and only by trying his best could he have a chance of survival.

"In that case, then die!" Yang Meng shouted angrily, as if thunder was rolling in the sky, shaking the air around him.

The aura around him reached its peak at this moment, and the terrifying power was like a mountain torrent, sweeping across the entire battlefield. He suddenly jumped up, like a tiger pouncing on its prey, and pounced towards Ling Xiao with a devastating momentum.

That terrifying aura, like a dark cloud pressing down on the sky, hung heavily over Ling Xiao, making it almost impossible for him to straighten his back. His legs trembled unconsciously, as if they were carrying a huge weight.

At this moment, an unprecedented shock and awe surged in his heart, and he finally realized that the strength of Yang Meng in front of him was far beyond all his previous imagination.

There was a flash of astonishment and unwillingness in Ling Xiao's eyes. He recalled the Tianhe Realm powerhouses he had seen in the past. Even when they were at their peak, they had never given him such a strong sense of oppression.

This was not just a gap in strength, but also an insurmountable gap between realms. He had to admit that Yang Meng was indeed a real Heaven Realm expert, a realm he had always dreamed of but was out of reach.

This pressure was not only a display of strength, but also a crushing of martial arts will, which made Ling Xiao feel the huge gap between himself and the truly strong.

He gritted his teeth and forced himself not to fall down. There was an unyielding light in his eyes. He secretly swore in his heart that one day, he would reach such a height, or even surpass it.

In the distance of the battlefield, Long Yingtian and the man in black armor stood quietly, their eyes crossing the distance and falling on the two people in fierce battle.

The black-armored man had a solemn expression, and his tone was filled with worry: "This Yang Meng is indeed as rumored, a powerful person in the Heavenly Man Realm. Palace Master, should we help him? Ling Xiao and the Young Master have a deep friendship. If he dies here today, the Young Master's heart of martial arts will be overshadowed by an indelible shadow."

Long Yingtian shook his head slightly, his eyes flashing with deep wisdom and trust. He said slowly: "Do you think that Ling Xiao is the kind of fool who is ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth and acts blindly?" As he spoke, there was a barely perceptible pride and expectation in his tone.

The black-armored man was stunned when he heard this, but then he reacted and shook his head and replied, "No! How could the young master's friend be mediocre?" Although there was some uncertainty in his voice, it was more of recognition and awe of Ling Xiao's potential.

"Since it's not the case, then we don't need to worry too much." Long Yingtian raised a faint smile and continued.

"Since he dares to face a Heavenly Realm expert like Yang Meng, he must have his own plans and trump cards. As bystanders, we just need to wait quietly and believe that he can create his own miracle."

At this moment, the atmosphere on the battlefield was extremely tense, and even the air seemed to freeze. In the distance, Yang Meng's figure stood still like a mountain. Suddenly, he swung his arm and condensed all his strength into a palm that fell down with a bang.

This palm was too overbearing and too shocking! It seemed to carry the will of heaven and earth, with irresistible force, like the sky turned upside down, smashing towards Ling Xiao fiercely.

The surrounding space seemed to have lost its color at this moment, leaving only the dazzling palm shadow and the terrifying power that followed, like the coming of doomsday. (End of this chapter)
