Batian Martial Soul

Chapter 12865 Only get rid of it as soon as possible
"Thank you very much, Ling Xiao." Jiu Lao's voice was trembling and excited. "I will practice this secret method well. I hope that one day I can really have the ability you said."

Ling Xiao nodded without saying anything more. He looked at Jiu Lao deeply, then turned and left the cave.

Jiu Lao originally did not have high expectations for the book Ling Xiao gave him, thinking that even if the content of the book was good, the level would not be too high. However, when Ling Xiao left, he casually opened the book, and at a glance, his expression froze instantly, as if he had seen something unbelievable.

“This… what the hell is this!” Jiu Lao’s voice was trembling. His eyes were as big as copper bells, almost falling out of their sockets. “A secret method of the Heavenly Master level! How is this possible!”

The book in his hand suddenly seemed to become extremely heavy, and he could hardly believe his eyes. This level of skills, let alone in a small place like the Southern Region, is definitely a top-level existence even in the entire Demon Suppression Mansion. He never thought that he would have the opportunity to come into contact with such a precious secret book.

Jiu Lao couldn't calm down for a long time. He flipped through the book again and again, trying to find more clues from it.

Every page seemed to contain endless mysteries, which made him want to explore deeper. However, he also understood that the value of this book was far beyond his imagination, and he needed to handle it carefully to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Ling Xiao had already left the city at this time, his heart full of expectations and determination. He knew that it would not be easy to find the legendary Demon Lord Black Sky Sword, but he was ready to meet all challenges.

The improvement of realm is not achieved overnight, but if he can find the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword, then his combat power will definitely be greatly improved.

Ling Xiao's steps were firm and powerful. He believed that he would be able to find the sword. By then, he would not only be able to dominate the Wuhun Realm, but he would also be able to fight against masters above the Wuhun Realm, or even the legendary Tongtian Realm masters.

This belief burned in his heart like a flame, filling him with confidence and strength.

……

The Jiang family of the East China Sea, a family with a long history and a great reputation, is located on the coast of the East China Sea. All the children in the family are talented. Today, the atmosphere in the meeting room of the Jiang family is extremely solemn.

Jiang Lianheng, the head of the Jiang family, was a middle-aged man with a resolute face and eagle-like eyes. He sat in the main seat and coldly examined the intelligence in his hand. The intelligence detailed the deeds of a young man named Ling Xiao, and the most eye-catching thing was how he defeated Jiang Zhunian, a martial arts master of the Jiang family.

Jiang Lianheng's mouth curled up into an icy smile, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes: "What a bastard, he actually has such a talent, even Jiang Zhunian died in his hands. Sure enough, people with the blood of my Jiang family, even if they are stranded outside, are not ordinary people."

At this time, a young man in his twenties beside Jiang Lianheng spoke up. He was Jiang Lianheng's third son, Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng had a handsome face and extraordinary temperament. At the age of 21, he was already a strong man in the first level of the Wuhun Realm and was known as the pride of the Jiang family.

He glanced at the intelligence and snorted disdainfully: "Father, why do you think so highly of this man? In my opinion, this kid is just relying on the treasures on him. How can a warrior in the Hunyuan realm kill a warrior in the Wuhun realm? This is simply a fantasy."

Jiang Lianheng sighed softly. He knew that his son was arrogant and would not take a mere Primordial Realm warrior seriously. But Jiang Lianheng knew that Ling Xiao, as described in the intelligence, was no ordinary person.

He said in a deep voice: "Feng'er, you must not underestimate this man. Although Ling Xiao is only at the third level of the Primordial Realm, his strength is far beyond that of ordinary warriors. Moreover, it is no coincidence that he was able to defeat Jiang Zhunian."

Jiang Feng smiled indifferently: "So what? He is just a warrior in the Primordial Realm after all. According to my son's guess, it must be that shameless woman who left the treasure of our Jiang family to that boy, which made him achieve what he has today. How can the treasure of our Jiang family fall into the hands of others? We must take it back as soon as possible!"

"Wouldn't it be better if I could use such a genius?" Jiang Lianheng sat on the rosewood chair in the study, looking at his son Jiang Feng with deep eyes, a meaningful smile on his lips.

Jiang Feng smiled slightly, with a hint of joking and helplessness: "Father, are you sincere in saying this? If Ling Xiao knew that Jiang Xiruo was his biological mother, and we had imprisoned his mother for more than ten years, letting her suffer in a dark secret room, do you think he would be resentful and become our enemy?"

Jiang Lianheng was slightly startled, then he regained his composure. He gently stroked a piece of jade on the desk and said calmly, "Why not? Don't people in this world live for profit? If we give him enough benefits, let him feel the power and wealth of our Jiang family, and the supreme glory he can get, I believe that even if he is unwilling in his heart, he will eventually succumb to the temptation of reality."

Jiang Feng shook his head, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes: "Father, are you testing me? Although my talent in martial arts is indeed not as good as that of my eldest and second brothers, I think I still have some experience in the ways of the world and in observing people's words and expressions."

"I have secretly investigated Ling Xiao. He has a noble character and a strong personality. He would rather break than bend. This kind of character determines that he will not betray his principles and emotions for any benefit."

Jiang Lianheng put down the teacup in his hand, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes: "Oh? You think so highly of him? In your opinion, how should we deal with it?"

Jiang Feng took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with determination: "In my opinion, since we can't bribe him, the only way is to get rid of him early! This boy is extremely talented. If we let him grow up, he will definitely become a major threat to our Jiang family. Therefore, we must strangle him in the cradle before he can fully grow his wings."

After a pause, Jiang Feng's face became serious. He took a deep breath and continued, "Father, this is not only about the reputation and status of our Jiang family, but also about the future fate of our family."

"The head of the Ji family has always wanted to marry Jiang Xiruo. If that powerful and violent person knew that Jiang Xiruo had an unknown bastard outside, how do you think he would react?"

"I'm afraid his anger will burn like a raging fire. Not only may he terminate his cooperation with us, he may even launch a comprehensive crackdown on our Jiang family."
