Chapter 13278: Unresolvable Dispute

Most people may not be very interested in this. After all, in this world dominated by fists, feet and weapons, magic is not taken seriously by most people.

But Ling Xiao is different. He is well aware of the power and mystery of magic, and has been looking for ways to improve his magical abilities.

Ling Xiao gently stroked the "Secret of Thunder and Lightning" in his hand, his eyes flashing with irrepressible joy and anticipation. This secret book from the storage ring of the young man who performed the Thunder Method was undoubtedly a precious gift to him.

He knew very well that in this world where the strong were respected, every resource that could improve strength was crucial. And this lightning secret method might be the key to him breaking through the current bottleneck and mastering more powerful combat skills.

Thinking back on his own growth process, Ling Xiao couldn't help but feel a little emotional. He didn't have a real master, and all his knowledge and skills were acquired step by step by himself.

Although this self-taught process was difficult, it also trained his tenacious will and keen observation.

Fortunately, he has the memories of Blue Star. The fighting methods and techniques from another world provide him with valuable references and inspiration for his adventures on this continent.

At this moment, Ling Xiao's heart was filled with desire and expectation for the secret method of thunder and lightning. He couldn't wait to study this secret book and explore the mysteries and power within it.

So he gently put the secret of thunder and lightning into his arms and turned back into the city.

After returning to his residence, he immediately closed the door and devoted himself to the study of the secret method of thunder and lightning.

In the distance, Long Yingtian looked at Ling Xiao's departing back, with a meaningful smile on his face.

He whispered to Cheng Shifei beside him, "This kid's potential is indeed terrifying. It seems that my son was right. Cheng Shifei, do you recognize him now?"

There was a hint of pride and relief in Long Yingtian's tone, as if he was proud of his own vision and his son's judgment.

Cheng Shifei nodded and said, "It is indeed powerful. Even if Zhang Ruochen encountered the lightning secret technique, it would be very troublesome. I didn't expect him to deal with it so easily. However... if he only knows this, it will not work."

There was a hint of amazement in Cheng Shifei's words. He nodded slightly, with complex emotions flashing in his eyes.

He was well aware of the power of the lightning secret technique. Even someone as powerful as Zhang Ruochen would get into great trouble if he was not careful.

However, Ling Xiao seemed to be able to handle it with ease and easily resolved the attack of the secret thunder and lightning technique, which forced Cheng Shifei to re-examine the strength of this young man.

However, even though he had a new understanding of Ling Xiao's strength, Cheng Shifei still remained cautious.

Hearing this, Long Yingtian raised a playful smile. He looked at Cheng Shifei and asked, "Do you think he tried his best?"

Cheng Shifei was stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't expect Long Yingtian to ask this. After a slight pause, he shook his head and asked in confusion: "Is it not true? How dare he hide his strength against such a monster?"

Seeing this, Long Yingtian couldn't help but laugh. He gently patted Cheng Shifei's shoulder and said with a smile: "You are very good at fighting, but your eyesight is really not that good. He not only hides his strength, but also hides many secrets."

Long Yingtian's tone was a bit teasing, but also a bit of admiration for Ling Xiao. He knew very well that this young man, Ling Xiao, was far more complex and profound than he let on.

After saying this, Long Yingtian turned around and prepared to leave. As he walked, he said, "Okay, let's go back to Chaos Demon City first. I am becoming more and more confident in this kid."

This sentence revealed Long Yingtian's expectations and confidence in Ling Xiao's future. He believed that this young man would be able to stir up a storm in Chaos Demon City and even the entire Demon Suppression Mansion in the future.

A flash of light passed by, and the figures of the two seemed to have crossed the boundaries of space, and instantly returned from afar to the familiar Chaos Demon City.

The bustling crowds on the streets, the vendors’ cries, and the occasional laughter all made them feel the unique atmosphere of this city.

"Master Lu!"

As soon as he stepped into the room, Cheng Shifei was surprised to see the person sitting at the table.

It was a burly, rugged-looking old man, holding a wine gourd in his hand, leisurely tasting the fine wine in it. He was Cheng Shifei's master, and also the Master Lu mentioned by Long Yingtian.

"What's there to be surprised about? It's okay for me to drink a little of your wine, right?" Master Lu looked at Cheng Shifei with a smile. With a trace of wine stains at the corner of his mouth, he seemed a bit free and unrestrained.

Cheng Shifei smiled helplessly. He knew the temperament of this master very well, so he didn't say much. He walked to the table, poured a full glass of wine for Master Lu, and then picked up the glass himself and drank with Master Lu.

"Thank you, Master Lu, for protecting that kid all this time, which has kept him safe." Long Yingtian also walked into the room at this time. He looked at Master Lu with gratitude in his eyes.

He knew that during this period of time, Master Lu had been secretly protecting Ling Xiao, allowing him to grow and gain experience in peace.

"Don't thank me. I shouldn't have come. I didn't do anything after I came." Master Lu waved his hand with a self-deprecating smile on his face.

He continued, "That kid still needs protection? He only encountered a little danger before reaching the Ten Thousand Demons Cemetery, and it was solved by right and wrong. Since entering the Ten Thousand Demons Cemetery, I don't think anyone can take his life."

At this point, Master Lu couldn't help but reveal a bit of admiration and satisfaction in his eyes. He knew Ling Xiao's potential and strength very well, and he also saw his outstanding performance in the Ten Thousand Demons Cemetery.

Although he had not provided any substantial help during this period, he felt very pleased and proud to see Ling Xiao grow and progress so quickly.

"Isn't that even better? It's our luck for the Demon Suppression Mansion to have such a young man." Long Yingtian also sat down slowly, a satisfied smile on his face, his eyes flashing with anticipation for the future.

Master Lu looked at Long Yingtian solemnly and suddenly asked, "Long Yingtian, do you really intend to fight to the death with the Soul Clan? By then, I'm afraid there will be rivers of blood and many deaths."

His voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to hit Long Yingtian's heart like a hammer.

Hearing this, Long Yingtian's eyes narrowed and he asked, "What else? Are we going to sit there and wait for death, watching the Soul Clan eat away at our territory step by step and trample on our dignity?"

There was a certain firmness and indomitable spirit in his tone, as if he was ready to fight to the death with the Soul Clan.

Upon hearing this, Master Lu frowned, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.

He asked again: "Is there no possibility of reconciliation? After all, war brings only endless pain and destruction." There was a hint of pleading in his voice, as if he hoped that Long Yingtian could find a peaceful way to avoid war. (End of this chapter)
