Chapter 2582: Chapter 2585: Counterkill: Doomsday for the Demon Dragon Sect Expert

"Ling Xiao, you should head to the capital first. These people are here for me."

In the face of the powerful attack, Chen Canglan remained unfazed, even Hong Minger beside him displayed a calm smile, as if the newcomers were of no concern to them.

Upon hearing his words, Ling Xiao had no time to respond when suddenly, a flaming red figure emerged from the mist, showing a sinister smile.

"Hahaha, Chen Canglan, today, neither you nor those alongside you will escape!

Especially Ling Xiao; if he is killed, your arduous trip to the Eight Immortals County City would be in vain."

The speaker did not reveal their true identity, making it difficult to discern their allegiance.

After all, Chen Canglan’s bid for the throne had earned him many enemies.

The Fourteenth Prince was a likely candidate.

The Demon Dragon Sect was also a possibility.

Or perhaps the Thirteenth Prince’s men came to rescue him, which was also plausible.

For as soon as the Xuan Turtle Carriage shattered, the Thirteenth Prince had been captured by the Sky-covering Big Hand.

But what was certain was that the opponent was very strong and intended to wipe them out completely.

"Sister Ruo Xian, Yue Shang, stay close to me. Let’s fight our way out! Their primary target is still Chen Canglan; in their eyes, we’re merely insignificant clowns."

Ling Xiao whispered and suddenly darted toward a direction at the moment the enemy attacked.

Lin Ruoxian and Yue Shang followed closely behind, each having drawn their magical treasures, ready to use them at any moment.

As Ling Xiao had predicted, there were five attackers, four of whom pounced on Chen Canglan and Hong Minger, with only one heading toward Ling Xiao and his companions.

"Petrification Beam!"

"Moonlight Soul Control!"

Lin Ruoxian and Yue Shang simultaneously used their magical treasures, causing the assailant a momentary daze.

Seizing the opportunity, Ling Xiao drew an Eight Immortals Sword, thrusting forward with the move "War Ghost Emperor," the very move that had once destroyed An Hun’s physical body.

His cultivation level had grown significantly stronger than in the past, suggesting that the move should be even more terrifying.

Yet at the moment of contact, it merely grazed the opponent’s skin.

This shocked Ling Xiao greatly.

He immediately unleashed the Night Demon Flower.

Only the Night Demon Flower would make the adversary wary.

The Night Demon Flower exploded in the sky; Ling Xiao, Lin Ruoxian, and Yue Shang had already vanished from sight.

Of course, that powerful figure was not dead; sensing danger, they chose to dodge immediately.

However, they still lost an arm as a result.

And the traces of Ling Xiao and the others were lost.

"Damn it, dare to oppose the Demon Dragon Sect, you shall die!"

He astonishingly endured the severe pain, pursuing the direction where Ling Xiao and the others had fallen.

By now, Ling Xiao, Lin Ruoxian, and Yue Shang had reached the ground.

For Yin-Yang Realm Martial Artists, especially those at the First Cycle of the Yin-Yang Realm, flying through the void was nothing unusual.

Thus, even a fall from high altitude posed no issues.

"Brother Ling Xiao, what should we do next?"

Yue Shang asked.

"Ambush and kill!"

Ling Xiao displayed a cold smile, "I crippled that man’s arm; he will undoubtedly be enraged and pursue us.

We will set a trap here, catch him off guard!"

"This is a master from the Demon Dragon Sect, with at least a First Transformation Yin-Yang Realm Ninth Layer Hell Early Stage cultivation level, can the three of us really match him?"

Lin Ruoxian asked worriedly.

"Have you forgotten the Little Demoness?"

Ling Xiao replied with a cunning smile, reasoning that since the opponent was far beyond his capacity to defeat, the solution was simple.

His external incarnation could certainly play a crucial role.

Secretly eliminate that guy, who would ever know?

Lin Ruoxian and Yue Shang showed expressions of sudden realization.

Subsequently, the three hid in a dark corner.

Ling Xiao released the Little Demoness.

And cast an Array Refining Stone; he absolutely couldn’t let that person escape, so the array unleashed by the Array Refining Stone was the Plague Osteoporosis Array, which Ling Xiao excelled at.

The Plague Osteoporosis Array originates from the Plague Demon King’s array.

Ling Xiao had refined and enhanced it.

Not only does it weaken the opponent with plague poison, but it also drains their inner strength.

It can form a large plague barrier, obstructing the enemy’s escape.

The Demon Dragon Sect man, unaware of the danger, and failing to foresee that mere ants dared to set a trap for him here.

When he fell from the sky, he was not the least bit cautious, heading toward the trap Ling Xiao intentionally laid.

Because that direction held traces he left behind.

However, in the instant the Demon Dragon Sect master stepped forward, the Plague Osteoporosis Array activated.

Invisible plague gas swiftly infiltrated the Demon Dragon Sect master’s body.

He reacted quickly, sensing something amiss and attempted to escape, but the surrounding green plague barrier had already formed.

His inner strength continuously depleted, causing him extreme shock and fear.

"Who? Who is it? Which expert dares oppose the Demon Dragon Sect?"

Even at this moment, the Demon Dragon Sect master remained unaware that Ling Xiao was his downfall.

He released his Martial Soul.

It was a Demon Dragon, many times more formidable than Lin Quan’s Demon Dragon.

It started devouring the plague poison.

"Little Demoness, attack!"

Ling Xiao naturally wouldn’t give the Demon Dragon Sect master a chance to escape and then commanded the Little Demoness to begin the assault.

The Little Demoness, who was not weaker than the Demon Dragon Sect master herself, combined with the terrifying Netherworld of Nine Quiets light, and the Plague Osteoporosis Array.

This led the Demon Dragon Sect master to be immediately crushed onto the ground.

The opponent tried to escape but couldn’t.

Ling Xiao took advantage of the opponent still having breath and used Soul Control and Soul Hooking and Seize Soul directly.

Soul Control provided simple information; this person was a disciple of the Demon Dragon Sect and only a regular one.

The Demon Dragon Sect distinguished disciples into core, elite, regular, and servant ranks.

This guy was merely a regular disciple.

He was tasked to capture the Thirteenth Prince this time, and killing Chen Canglan was actually secondary.

Soul Hooking and Seize Soul brought considerable benefits, instantly boosting Ling Xiao’s cultivation level by seven energy points.

Reaching the First Stage Yin-Yang Realm, Eighth Layer Hell Early Stage with full energy.

He only needed another evenly matched battle to make a breakthrough.

"This fellow is just an ordinary Demon Dragon Sect disciple, yet his Storage Ring harbors precious items, including Top Grade Jade Martial Arts Skills, angering others easily."

Ling Xiao explored the Demon Dragon Sect martial artist’s Storage Ring, finding not only a large number of Spirit Stones and pills but also Top Grade Jade Martial Arts Skills.

Considering that in Eight Immortals County City, even low-quality Top Grade Jade Martial Arts Skills could stir conflicts among martial artists.

It truly was astonishing.

"It seems heading to the capital is the right move; both resources and environment are much better than Eight Immortals County City."

Lin Ruoxian also remarked.

Ling Xiao and Yue Shang deeply agreed.
