Chapter 13906 Wan Ning
Ling Xiao's brows frowned instantly, his face full of astonishment, as if he had heard a huge joke.

"Is there such a thing? How come I have never heard of it?"

His voice suddenly rose, his eyes full of disbelief.

He thought to himself, the Dazhen Dynasty has always advocated peace, why would they suddenly have such a plan? What conspiracy is hidden behind this?
Shangguan Yue felt relieved when she saw Ling Xiao's reaction. She continued, "You see, it's not that the Demon Sea is warlike. If this land can be unified, everyone can put aside their past grudges, replace endless fighting with healthy competition, jointly formulate rules, and promote each other, wouldn't it be a blessing for the world? In this way, the people can live and work in peace and not suffer from war."

There was a gleam of anticipation in her eyes, hoping that Ling Xiao could understand her thoughts.

"It's just an excuse for invasion!" Ling Xiao retorted mercilessly, his eyes as sharp as a sword, "You, the Demon Sea, have always coveted the rich land and abundant resources of the Dazhen Dynasty. Now you are just looking for a high-sounding reason to start a war and realize your ambitions!"

Seeing Ling Xiao still being stubborn, Shangguan Yue pressed on and asked, "What if your land starts a war first? At that time, the Demon Sea will have no choice but to fight back in order to protect itself. The scale and severity of the war will probably be even more difficult to control."

Ling Xiao pondered for a moment, and a confident arc appeared on the corner of his mouth, which was filled with fearless courage and firm belief. "Then let's fight! Beat them until they are defeated! The men of our Dazhen Dynasty are all brave and fearless, so how could they be afraid of you, the Demon Sea? If you, the Demon Sea, insist on starting a war, we will definitely let you know that the Dazhen Dynasty is not to be trifled with!"

His voice was so loud and clear that it seemed as if he was declaring war on the entire sea of ​​demons.

Shangguan Yue was speechless for a moment when she heard this. Her lips moved slightly, but she didn't know how to respond.

She didn't expect Ling Xiao to have such an attitude, and he didn't play by the rules at all. This was completely different from the humans she had met before, and she was a little overwhelmed.

Shangguan Yue was slightly startled, then chuckled. The laughter was as clear and melodious as a silver bell, breaking the tense atmosphere. "Brother Ling... you are indeed different! Such a tough attitude makes me look at you with new eyes."

There was a hint of appreciation and helplessness in her eyes.

Ling Xiao was just about to speak and express his views on the topic he had just argued with Shangguan Yue, when the sound of fierce fighting came from afar like thunder.

The sound was sharp and noisy, mixed with the crisp sounds of weapons clashing and the shouts of warriors, as if it was a battlefield where two armies were fighting.

Ling Xiao looked in the direction of the sound and saw more than thirty warriors holding various weapons, fighting and sparring with focused expressions in an open field.

Some of them were waving long swords, with sword shadows flashing like a dragon emerging from the sea; some were dancing with long spears, with spear shadows crisscrossing like a dragon swinging its tail; some were waving broadswords, with the sword wind whistling like a tiger descending from the mountain.

Every movement was vigorous and powerful, every confrontation was full of sparks, and the scene was spectacular.

At this time, the Niu Warrior who had been standing aside spoke up. He was tall and strong, and his voice was as loud as a bell. "Sir Shangguan, this Brother Ling is from the Dazhen Dynasty. I heard that he is very powerful. Someone in my arena admires him and would like to learn something from him. Is that possible?"

There was a hint of anticipation in his eyes, as if he was expecting a wonderful duel.

Shangguan Yue heard this, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a meaningful smile. She turned her gaze to Ling Xiao and said with a smile: "Niu Yongshi, you have to ask Brother Ling himself! If he is willing, I naturally have no objection."

There was a hint of ridicule in that voice, as well as a hint of trust in Ling Xiao's ability.

Niu Yongshi understood and looked at Ling Xiao with an extremely sincere attitude. He bowed slightly, clasped his hands together and said, "I wonder if Brother Ling can give me some advice? The warriors in my arena have always been eager to communicate and learn from masters from the outside world to improve their own strength. Brother Ling's arrival is undoubtedly a rare opportunity for them."

Ling Xiao smiled warmly, like the warm sunshine in spring. He waved his hand gently and said, "I don't deserve your advice, we are just exchanging ideas. I came here this time to see the martial arts style of the Demon Sea, and it is also my wish to exchange ideas with all the martial artists."

His voice is calm and humble, making people feel like spring breeze.

Niu Yongshi nodded and looked not far away. He saw a woman in a long ink-wash dress walking towards him. She was about eighteen or nineteen years old, with a graceful figure, like an orchid blooming in the wind.

Her eyebrows are like distant mountains, elegant and beautiful, as if drawn with the most delicate brushstrokes; her eyes are like autumn water, clear and bright, as if hiding endless wisdom and tenderness.

She was holding a thick book in her arms. There were some mysterious runes flickering on the cover of the book. A faint scent of books lingered around her, as if she was a talented woman who came from a scholarly family.

This person is a little older than Lu Ning.

Ling Xiao thought to himself that he had experienced the strength of Lu Ning, but he wondered how strong the woman in front of him was.

The woman walked up to the two of them and saluted Shangguan Yueying first, her voice clear and pleasant: "Greetings, Lord Shangguan!"

Her movements were graceful and her manners were that of a lady from a noble family.

Shangguan Yue smiled and waved her hand, saying, "No need to be so polite! Since we are here to exchange ideas and learn from each other, there is no need to be so polite."

Her smile was friendly and easy-going, making the woman feel much more relaxed immediately.

The woman turned to look at Ling Xiao, her voice as soft as silk: "Brother Ling, my name is Wan Ning, and I am the chief warrior of this arena. I hope you can teach me!"

There was a hint of anticipation and a hint of challenge in her eyes, as if she was waiting for a wonderful duel with Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao smiled and said, "So, you are the person on the Demon List that Shangguan Yue mentioned?"

He secretly speculated in his heart that the characters on the Demon List were indeed extraordinary, and the seemingly weak woman in front of him might have amazing strength.

Wan Ning didn't nod or shake her head, but changed the subject. She frowned slightly, with a hint of worry in her eyes: "Brother Ling, what do you think of the relationship between the Demon Sea and your land?"

There was a hint of inquiry in her voice, as if she really wanted to know Ling Xiao's opinion on the relationship between the two tribes.

Ling Xiao pondered for a moment, his eyes became firm, and he said bluntly: "Do you even need to ask? Of course they are hostile."

"Let's not talk about what happened a thousand years ago. Right now, the Demon Sea and the Dazhen Dynasty have been in constant conflict for many years. The two sides have many conflicts over resources and territory. In my opinion, the current relationship between the two tribes is hostile."

His voice was sonorous and powerful, and he made no secret of his views on the relationship between the two ethnic groups.

Wan Ning shook her head gently, her long, shiny black hair swaying slightly with her movement, as if hiding her complicated inner thoughts.
