Chapter 13817 Going straight to Huanglong
Ling Xiao is no longer afraid of the bitterness of failure, nor does he fear the shadow of death.

Because in his opinion, rather than lingering on in this world without dignity, it is better to fight vigorously for the beliefs in his heart. Even if he eventually falls on the battlefield, he will die without regrets.

Now, this battle was not chosen by him, but he was forced into a desperate situation by others. There was no way to retreat, so he might as well fight to the death. The worst that could happen is that he would die!

Ling Xiao's steps were firm and steady. Every step he took left a shallow footprint on the solid ground, emitting a slight yet powerful echo.

He knew clearly that what was waiting for him ahead would most likely be a devastating blow and a desperate situation where he would be 100 percent dead, but there was no sign of hesitation or retreat in his eyes.

He had already made the most thorough mental preparations in his heart. Even if he finally fell on the land of the temple, he would make this once invincible force pay the most painful price for their actions, and let them know that even ants, when forced into desperate situations, will rise up in resistance and burst out with amazing strength.

Soon, Ling Xiao arrived at the towering gate of the holy city.

Before he could get close to the city gate, a cold and piercing sword energy seemed to appear out of thin air, carrying with it a cold murderous intent, and came through the air at lightning speed.

The air was instantly filled with a creepy sense of murderous solemnity, and the sword energy seemed to be given life, like a materialized sharp blade, flashing with cold light, rushing towards him, at a speed so fast that it was almost difficult to capture with the naked eye.

Wherever the sword energy passed, the surrounding grass and trees seemed to be gently stroked by an invisible giant hand, and were instantly cut neatly in half, with the cut as smooth as a mirror; even the invisible air seemed unable to withstand the tearing of this powerful sword energy, and emitted a sharp and piercing whistle, as if playing the prelude to the battle that was about to break out.

This sudden attack was obviously carefully planned and calculated. It was like a test of Ling Xiao's strength, trying to find out the details of the person who dared to attack; it was also like a stern warning, advising Ling Xiao not to act rashly, otherwise he would pay a heavy price.

When Ling Xiao sensed the sharp sword energy coming at him, his eyes instantly became icy cold, as if they could freeze everything in the world.

Without hesitation, he quickly drew out the long sword from his waist that had accompanied him for many years and was stained with the blood of countless enemies. With a slight flip of his wrist, his whole aura suddenly rose, like a volcano about to erupt, and he rushed towards the rushing sword energy with lightning speed.

His movements were simple and crisp, without any unnecessary fancy moves, and he reacted entirely based on the instinct honed over many years on the brink of life and death.

At this moment, his entire body seemed to be enveloped by a mysterious and powerful force. Every muscle was tensed, filled with endless strength and concentration. The whole world seemed to have stopped turning at this moment. All the light was gathered on him, and he became the only focus of this world.

Zheng!
The sword energy and the knife light collided violently in the air, bursting out an extremely dazzling light, so bright that it was almost impossible to open one's eyes, as if two stars were colliding violently in the sky.

What was shocking was that the seemingly indestructible sword energy was actually chopped apart by Ling Xiao's sharp sword, turning into countless tiny light and shadows that dissipated into the air.

The moment the two collided, a shock wave so strong that it could almost destroy everything spread out rapidly in all directions like ripples, centered on the point of collision.

For a moment, dust was flying all over the sky, and the gravel on the ground was lifted high by the shock wave and splashed everywhere, as if it was raining stones.

A blinding light instantly illuminated the entire area, its brightness far exceeding the midday sun, causing people to subconsciously squint their eyes.

However, when the dazzling light gradually dissipated, people were surprised to find that Ling Xiao was still standing firmly in the same place like a towering mountain, without any shaking.

The long sword in his hand was emitting a faint blue light at this moment. The light was soft but revealed a mysterious power, like the brightest star in the night sky, shining with unyielding brilliance in the darkness.

At this time, a young man in a white robe appeared in front of him quietly, like a white cloud descending from the sky.

The young man in white had a look of vigilance in his eyes, like a cheetah facing a strong enemy, ready to attack or defend at any time.

The young man in white is very young, with a bit of childishness on his face, but he exudes an extraordinary calmness and composure, as if he has experienced countless storms.

His white robe fluttered gently in the wind, like clouds in the sky, giving people a feeling of being cold, arrogant, and otherworldly.

However, when he witnessed Ling Xiao deflecting his attack so easily, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy deep in his heart.

He was originally full of confidence in his attack, thinking that it would be enough to intimidate the uninvited guest who had come before him. However, he did not expect that the other party would be able to break his attack so easily, which dealt a great blow to his self-esteem.

At this moment, a bone-chilling voice, as if coming from the Netherworld, suddenly rang out in the mind of the young man in white without any warning: "Don't act rashly, you are definitely not his opponent!"

The voice was deep and powerful, as if carrying a magical power that could penetrate the soul, directly breaking through the layers of barriers in his consciousness, causing his body to tremble involuntarily.

He suddenly raised his head, his eyes full of shock and confusion, as if he was trying to confirm where the sound came from.

But soon, he forced down all the doubts in his heart.

After all, within the strictly hierarchical temple, obeying the orders of superiors is the most important principle, and no disobedience is tolerated.

No match for that guy?

The Holy Lord's majestic voice exploded in the young man's ears like a huge bell!

The young man in white's face instantly turned as pale as paper.

He never imagined that an ordinary person from the outside world could be so powerful beyond imagination.

As an outstanding leader among the younger generation of the Holy Temple, he has always been confident in his own abilities, even a little conceited.

In his past experiences, he relied on his strong strength and was almost invincible among his peers.

But now, when he really faced Ling Xiao, he had to admit that the aura emanating from the man in front of him was indeed extraordinary, and there seemed to be a world of difference between him and himself.

The young man in white's expression suddenly changed. He subconsciously glanced at Ling Xiao, with a look of unwillingness and a hint of fear in his eyes.
