Chapter 13278: Unsolvable Conflict

Ordinary people may not be very interested in this. After all, in this world dominated by fists and weapons, magic is not valued by most people.

But Ling Xiao is different. He knows the power and mystery of magic, and has been looking for ways to improve his magic ability.

Ling Xiao gently stroked the "Thunder Secret" in his hand, with irrepressible joy and expectation in his eyes. This secret book from the storage ring of the young man who cast the thunder method is undoubtedly a precious gift for him.

He knows that in this world where the strong are respected, every resource that can improve strength is crucial. And this thunder secret may be the key to his breaking through the existing bottleneck and mastering more powerful combat skills.

Recalling his growth process, Ling Xiao couldn't help but sigh. He didn't have a real master, and all his knowledge and skills were learned step by step by himself.

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

Fortunately, he has the memory of Blue Star. Those fighting methods and skills from another world provide him with valuable reference and inspiration for his adventure on this continent.

At this moment, Ling Xiao's heart is full of desire and expectation for the secret method of thunder and lightning. He can't wait to study this secret book and explore the mystery and power in it.

So, he gently took the secret method of thunder and lightning into his arms and turned back to 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, and a meaningful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He whispered to Cheng Shifei beside him: "This kid's potential is really terrible. It seems that my son is 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 vision and his son's judgment.

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

Cheng Shifei's words were filled with a trace of amazement that was difficult to conceal. He nodded slightly, and his eyes flashed with complex emotions.

He knew the power of the lightning secret method very well. Even if he was as powerful as Zhang Ruochen, he would get into great trouble if he didn't deal with it carefully.

However, Ling Xiao seemed to be at ease and easily resolved the attack of the lightning secret method, 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 in his heart, Cheng Shifei still remained cautious.

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

Cheng Shifei was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting Long Yingtian to ask this. After a slight pause, he shook his head and said in confusion: "Isn't it? He dared to hide his strength against such a monster?"

Long Yingtian couldn't help laughing when he saw this. He gently patted Cheng Shifei's shoulder and said with a smile: "You are very good at fighting, but your eyesight is really not very 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 that this young man, Ling Xiao, was far more complex and profound than he showed.

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

This sentence revealed Long Yingtian's expectations and confidence in Ling Xiao's future. He believed that this young man would definitely set off a storm in Chaos Demon City and even the entire Zhenmo Mansion in the future.

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

The bustling crowds on the street, the hawkers' cries, and the occasional laughter all made them feel the unique atmosphere of this city.

"Master Lu!"

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

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

"What's so surprising? It's okay to drink a little of your wine, right?" Master Lu looked at Cheng Shifei with a smile, and a trace of wine stains on the corners of his mouth made him look a bit free and uninhibited.

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 he also picked up the wine glass and drank with Master Lu.

"Thank you Master Lu for protecting that kid during this time, so that he can be 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 at ease.

"Don't thank me, I shouldn't have come here, and 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? It's just that he encountered a little danger before reaching the Ten Thousand Demons Cemetery, and it was still solved by right and wrong. Since entering the Ten Thousand Demons Cemetery, I don't think anyone can take his life."

Speaking of this, Master Lu couldn't help but reveal a bit of admiration and relief in his eyes. He knew Ling Xiao's potential and strength, and he also saw his outstanding performance in the Ten Thousand Demon Cemetery.

Although he didn't do anything substantial to help during this period, he felt very relieved and proud to see Ling Xiao grow and improve so quickly.

"Isn't that better? It's my luck to have such a young man." Long Yingtian also sat down slowly, with a satisfied smile on his face and his eyes flashing with expectations 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? I'm afraid that by then, there will be blood flowing like a river, and many people will die."

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

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

There was a bit of firmness and unyieldingness in his tone, as if he was ready to fight to the death with the Soul Clan.

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 bit of pleading in his voice, as if he hoped that Long Yingtian could find a peaceful way to avoid war.
