Chapter 13731 Breakthrough
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Ni Shuanghan had shown mercy on purpose. If she had really killed him, with the power of this horrific attack, Yaohuo would have already turned into a cold corpse lying on the ground.
Yaohuo's face turned blue and red, and his heart was filled with shame and resentment. It was so embarrassing, so embarrassing!
He thought that with his own strength, he could at least withstand Ni Shuanghan's attack and show the demeanor of a strong man of the Holy Hall in front of everyone. However, he never expected that in this short moment, he was almost killed by the opponent.
If Ni Shuanghan had not been afraid and concerned about the huge power behind the Holy Hall and did not dare to kill rashly, Yaohuo would probably have died by now.
Seeing this thrilling scene, the faces of those powerful men from the Holy Temple who were still hoping for a lucky break suddenly became extremely solemn.
There was no more contempt and arrogance in their eyes, replaced by deep shock and vigilance. And Yaohuo himself felt that his dignity was being ruthlessly trampled underfoot, and his face became extremely ugly at this moment, like the gloomy sky before a storm.
The power of a gun was so terrifying! In that brief and fierce battle just now, Yaohuo had to admit that he was completely defeated. He gritted his teeth and stared at Ni Shuanghan coldly, with anger and a hint of fear that was difficult to conceal in his eyes.
After a long while, he finally managed to squeeze out a sentence from between his teeth: "Your Excellency is indeed powerful, and I underestimated this monster of yours. But your strength is still not worth mentioning in the eyes of my Holy Hall. Even if your master is the famous Red Spear God, he cannot humiliate my Holy Hall so wantonly. Today, you must give us a reasonable explanation, otherwise, my Holy Hall will never let it go!"
Yao Huo knew everything about Ni Shuanghan's master, the Red Spear God. In this vast and boundless cultivation world full of powerful people, the Red Spear God was a legendary and terrifying existence.
Even a powerful organization like the Holy Temple had to be extremely alert and treat this mysterious figure with caution.
Going back to a hundred years ago, when the Red Spear God was in his prime and full of vigor and vitality, he had already shined on the stage of the Star Ranking and firmly occupied the top spot. In that list where there were many talented people under the age of 30 and the competition was extremely fierce, he undoubtedly became the well-deserved number one.
Admittedly, the Holy Temple never participates in the Star Ranking competition due to special rules, which means that the Red Spear God's first place may lack a little value in the eyes of some people.
But time passed slowly, and a hundred years had gone by in a flash. During these long years, the Red Spear God devoted himself to training and constantly honing himself. Now, his strength is unfathomable, like a towering mountain hidden in the clouds, making it difficult for people to glimpse his true height.
Looking at the current Dazhen Dynasty, the forces are complicated. In addition to the mysterious and dangerous Demon Sea and the profound and powerful Holy Temple, there are also the seven kings with great reputation. The Red Spear God is one of the seven kings and is respected by the world as the Spear King.
Along with him, there was the Qin family's sword king, who was famous for his superb swordsmanship. The Feather Clan, the Water Clan, and Xuantian Temple each had a strong man who occupied a place among the seven kings.
In comparison, the royal family seemed a little lonely, without even a powerful person who could be among the seven kings. The other two kings were both free and easy, not caring about worldly affairs.
Even a behemoth like the Holy Temple would never dare to provoke a person of such a respected status and extraordinary strength.
After all, the Gun King was not someone you could easily mess with. Even if they really wanted to completely tear each other apart and fight, the Holy Hall could probably completely destroy the Gun King after paying a huge price with the help of many powerful people.
But this account, whether in terms of manpower, material resources or future development, is too uneconomical. The high-ranking officials of the Holy Temple are all clear in their minds that they will try their best not to do such thankless tasks.
Ni Shuang was as cold as ice, staring at Yao Huo with a sharp gaze, and said coldly: "You arranged for me to stay in that inn, and now you are asking me the reason? I had good intentions and wanted to help you, but you used me as bait to lure the enemy. You teased me so wantonly, and I just destroyed your base, don't you have any objections?"
As she spoke, the cold air seemed to freeze the air around her. After she finished speaking, she turned around and left, leaving only a few words floating in the air: "From now on, Ling Xiao and I have nothing to do with each other, and you don't bother me anymore."
Yao Huo looked at Ni Shuanghan's departing back, his face as dark as the bottom of a pot. His heart was full of doubts and shock, he couldn't understand how Ling Xiao, who was just an unknown junior, could survive safely after meeting a strong man like Ni Shuanghan.
This question, like a thorn, pierced deeply into his heart, causing him to re-evaluate Ling Xiao's strength. He secretly warned himself that he should never take Ling Xiao lightly in the future.
……
In a deep and quiet forest, lush branches and leaves are stacked layer upon layer, like a huge green curtain, completely isolating the noise and disturbance of the outside world.
The sunlight struggled to pass through the gaps, casting spots of light and forming patches of mottled light and shadows on the ground.
Qin Xianglan stood quietly in this area of light and shadow. Her two arms had been recondensed, but her face looked particularly ugly, as if shrouded in a layer of haze.
This was not an expression of emotion without reason. Even with Qin Xianglan's powerful strength, it was not easy to regenerate a broken limb. In order to reshape her arms, she had to consume her precious essence and blood.
That is an important part of the foundation of a warrior's cultivation, and every drop of it contains endless power and vitality. This ordeal not only seriously damaged her vitality, but also left her with deep regret and resentment in her heart.
Not far away, Ling Xiao sat cross-legged on a smooth boulder, his eyes closed, his expression focused. He was completely immersed in the perception and arrangement of his own aura. Just now, a wonderful transformation quietly took place in his body.
Ling Xiao successfully crossed from Tongtian Realm to Tianhe Realm, and this breakthrough was already amazing. What was even more amazing was that, relying on the tremendous power he had accumulated over a long period of time, his realm soared directly to the third level of Tianhe Realm like a rocket.
Not only that, his actual combat power has made a qualitative leap. Now, his combat power is comparable to that of a sixth-level Star Realm warrior. This sudden and huge improvement is undoubtedly a pleasant surprise, giving him a stronger foothold in this world where the strong prey on the weak. (End of this chapter)
