Chapter 13263 Can’t wait any longer
When Zhao Heng heard this, his expression froze and he immediately nodded. He turned around and walked away with big strides. Every step he took seemed so firm and powerful.
He knew very well that although this action had achieved certain results, it had also exposed some weaknesses of the Demon Suppression Mansion, and adjustments must be made as soon as possible.
Not long after, Ling Xiao and the others rushed back to the base. They all looked a little tired, but their eyes were shining with unyielding light. Ling Xiao walked in front, his figure was upright and resolute, as if he could move forward bravely no matter what difficulties he faced.
Zhang Ruochen was weakly carried by Bai Sha. His face was as pale as paper, but his eyes revealed his gratitude towards Ling Xiao.
He looked at Ling Xiao, his voice weak but firm: "This time it's all thanks to you. If you hadn't acted in time, we would have been wiped out this time. The strength of Hun Wuxu is really terrifying. I have never seen such a powerful enemy."
Ling Xiao shook his head gently after hearing this. His eyes showed both admiration for Zhang Ruochen and fear of Hun Wuxu. He said slowly, "If it weren't for Brother Zhang blocking Hun Wuxu, I wouldn't have had a chance to capture the masked youth. Each of the geniuses of the Soul Clan is extremely powerful. We must be more cautious."
"In addition to Hun Wuxu, there is also a Heavenly Soul Saint. This woman and Hun Wuxu are known as the twin prides of the Soul Clan. Her status in the Soul Clan is extraordinary. In some aspects, the strength and means she has demonstrated are even more terrifying than Hun Wuxu."
Zhang Ruochen's expression became extremely solemn. He reminded Ling Xiao word by word, as if every word carried a heavy weight. "If you meet her in the future, you must be extremely careful and don't be careless."
Hearing this, Ling Xiao showed a bitter smile on his face. He shook his head helplessly and said self-deprecatingly: "It seems that I, Ling Xiao, have quite a lot of reputation. I can actually attract the two prides of the Soul Clan to be interested in me." Although there was a bit of self-deprecation in his tone, it was more of a warning and determination for the future.
Seeing this, Zhang Ruochen gently patted Ling Xiao's shoulder to show comfort and encouragement.
He continued, "Also, I have heard some bad news. It seems that in addition to the Soul Clan, some warriors from the Soul-Suppressing Mansion have also shown a strong interest in you. The talented warriors they sent are as strong as Hun Wuxu. I am afraid that your future will be even more difficult."
Ling Xiao always holds on to an unshakable view in his heart, that is, among his peers, he is invincible. This confidence is not groundless, but comes from his deep understanding of his own strength.
Whether it was the mysterious and powerful Hun Wuxu, or the Holy Girl Tianhun, who was known as one of the two prides of the Soul Clan, Ling Xiao did not show the slightest fear when facing them.
Even though he was not able to keep pace with these two people now, he knew very well that this was only temporary.
Because he was practicing the Nine Revolutions of Reincarnation, a technique with endless potential, as long as he was given enough time, he believed that he would be able to catch up with them, or even surpass them.
In Ling Xiao's eyes, there are many geniuses, but the only one who can be called a demon is Ling Xiao. He has talents and perseverance beyond ordinary people, and can continue to grow and break through himself in adversity.
This confidence and pride is the source of his ability to remain calm and determined in the face of any challenge.
In this Ten Thousand Demons Cemetery, Ling Xiao was fearless. As long as no strong man above the Heavenly Man Realm appeared, he could rely on his own strength to deal with any crisis.
This confidence is not blind arrogance, but comes from his deep understanding of this land and accurate grasp of his own strength.
After Zhang Ruochen was sent to recuperate, Ling Xiao also returned to his room.
His room was simple and plain, but the air was filled with a strong atmosphere of cultivation. He sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes and concentrated, and began a new round of cultivation.
In his heart, only by continuous practice can he become stronger and go further on this thorny road.
For Ling Xiao, today's actual battle is far more valuable than any monster he has killed before.
After all, fighting with humans and fighting with monsters are two completely different experiences.
Monsters, even those with a certain degree of intelligence, are nothing more than ants in front of true warriors. Their actions are often based on instinct, and they lack the complex and changeable thinking and strategies of humans.
Humans are the most sinister and cunning beings in this world. Their minds are hard to figure out, and their methods are endless.
Fighting with such people can not only train Ling Xiao's martial arts and practical experience, but also teach him how to stay calm in complex situations and understand people's hearts. Such experience is undoubtedly much more valuable than simply hunting monsters.
Ling Xiao thought to himself that perhaps, through today's actual combat, he would be able to gain greater benefits, not only in terms of improvement of martial arts, but also in terms of the sharpening of his mind and will.
At this time, Wang Zhenshou had just walked out of Zhang Ruochen's ward, looking a little tired, but with a hint of concern in his eyes. He looked up into the distance and saw Zhao Heng walking hurriedly, with a bit of urgency in his steps.
"Are Ling Bi and the others back?" Wang Zhenshou asked with a hint of expectation in his voice. He knew very well that Ling Bi and the others were the hope for the future of the Demon Suppression Mansion, and their safety was directly related to the future of the Demon Suppression Mansion.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Heng stopped and replied respectfully, "They should be back soon, don't worry, Guard Wang, I have already sent someone to pick them up." There was a firmness in his tone, and it was obvious that he was full of confidence in the return of Ling Bi and the others.
"I hope he can come back soon," said Wang Zhenshou, with a hint of worry in his voice, as if foreshadowing the coming storm. "The city lord will come to the base in person soon, and the young master and even the master may come in person. Such a scene makes people feel that the matter is very serious."
His eyes were deep, as if he could see through the undercurrents of the future, making the air around him freeze a little.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Heng frowned and said in a low but firm voice: "Soul Clan, are they going to make any big moves? They have been preparing in secret over the years, and it seems that they can no longer hold back." His tone showed both vigilance against the unknown and anticipation for the upcoming challenges.
Wang Zhenshou sighed softly, his voice low and magnetic: "Yes, they can't wait any longer. For so many years, they have been reflecting on their past failures and summing up their experiences. They seem to think that the time is ripe and it is time to make a break with us."
His eyes revealed an indescribable complex emotion, with both regrets about the past and worries about the future. (End of this chapter)
