C46

"It's finally the finals."

"In today's battle between Ling Yun and Ling Kun, who would stand out and obtain the qualifications to enter the Royal City's Ling Family?"

"The results will be revealed very soon. I'm really looking forward to it."

On the seventh day.

Early in the morning, a large number of the Ling Family clansmen had converged into a stream of people that headed towards the martial arts training field. Every part of the Ling Family was filled with passionate discussion.

Ling Yun, who had been cultivating the entire night, opened his eyes in shock by the intense atmosphere.

"It's time to go."

Lingyun grabbed the Scarlet Thunder Spear, carried it diagonally behind him, and headed towards the training grounds.

There were not many people left in the Ling Family at this time. They were all gathered on the martial arts training ground.

Ling Yun stepped into a narrow alley.

Because Lingyun's small courtyard was located in a remote place, this was the only way for him to get to the Martial Arts Practice Grounds.

The moment Ling Yun stepped into the alleyway, Ling Yun suddenly felt that something was wrong.

The air seemed to be suffused with a cold killing intent. The cold wind blew past, and it was bleak and bone-piercing.

At the end of the alleyway, an old man in a black robe suddenly appeared.

"Who are you!"

Ling Yun's pupils contracted. He felt a great threat from this old man in black.

It was very obvious that the people who came were not kind, and the good people would not come!

The black-robed old man let out a strange laugh, his voice was like the sound of two rotten wood rubbing against each other. "You don't need to know who I am. You only need to know that I'm the one who killed you."

Ling Yun replied: "Hehe, it seems like you don't have any confidence. If you really do have the confidence to make me stay here forever, then what's wrong with telling the person who ordered you to do so?"

Lingyun spoke as he observed his surroundings, his mind quickly thinking of a way to deal with it.

The black robed elder seemed to have seen through Ling Yun's thoughts, and coldly laughed: "Don't think about trying to trick me. Also, don't think about escaping. Today, you will definitely die."

With a flip of his hand, a broken piece of ancient jade appeared within the palm of the black-robed old man.

"This is …" the aura of a broken Yuan Artifact! " Ling Yun was shocked.

Only Earth Origin Stage cultivators could refine Origin Tools! Its power could be imagined.

"At least you have some experience."

Kacha

The black-robed old man's eyes flashed with pain, but he still crushed the broken jade.

An invisible barrier rapidly expanded, finally enveloping the entire alleyway.

"You should be glad that this broken Yuan Artifact is not your main attack, and will only form a barrier that will isolate Earth Essence Realm experts. Otherwise, even if there were a hundred of you, it would not be enough to kill one main attack. However, it's enough as long as I can isolate those in the Earth Origin Stage. This old man is more than enough to kill you. "

Ling Yun's heart skipped a beat.

Originally, he had wanted to cause a huge commotion and attract the experts of the Ling Family.

However, it was basically impossible for the black-robed old man to use this technique.

Right now, the only thing Ling Yun could rely on … It was him.

"Alright, enough nonsense. It's time to send you to see the King of Hell."

The old man in black laughed strangely, and walked towards Ling Yun at a leisurely pace.

In his eyes, Ling Yun, who was not even at the eighth level of the Mortal Origin Stage, was like an ant that could be easily crushed.

A tyrannical aura emanated from the body of the black-robed old man.

The tenth level of the Mortal Origin Stage!

This black robed elder was actually a powerhouse at the tenth level of the Mortal Origin Stage. In the Ling family, he was more than qualified to be an elder.

The mastermind who wanted to assassinate Ling Yun had actually attacked him at all costs, and had even spent a precious broken Yuan Artifact just for … is to kill Ling Yun!

"Ling Kun sent you, right?"

In this instant, many thoughts flashed past Ling Yun's mind.

Ling Yun's superior talent had already made Ling Kun feel threatened; this was Ling Kun's motive for killing.

Also, only Ling Kun had the ability to arrange such a killing trap.

The other people, like Ling Jue and Ling Yu, although they also wished for Ling Yun to die, they did not have the ability to do so.

"Who wants to kill you? You can ask the King of Hell after you go to hell."

The voice of the old man in black suddenly turned cold and overflowing with killing intent. It was as if the temperature of the entire alleyway had dropped to zero.

"..."

On the martial arts practice field.

A new, extremely large battle stage had been set up. Around the battle stage, there was a black mass of Ling Family members who were watching from the sidelines.

Ling Xingye, Ling Ba, and the other upper echelons of the Ling Family stood on the spectator's stand.

"It should be about time, where are Ling Yun and Ling Kun? Have they arrived yet? "

"We're here, Ling Kun is here!"

Everyone's gaze turned towards one direction. Ling Kun was dressed in a luxurious purple robe with a jade belt and hair tied in a bun. He appeared extremely handsome, causing waves of young girls to scream.

Ling Kun looked around, and upon hearing the screams that rose and fell, he could not help but feel extremely proud, and jumped up the stage with his head held high.

"Ling Kun has already arrived, there's only Ling Yun left."

"Why isn't Ling Yun here yet!"

"He's not oversleeping, is he?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? How could a high-level Mortal Origin Stage martial artist oversleep? If that's true, then he must have been delayed because of something."

"This is such a disappointment. We've all been waiting impatiently for him to show up, yet he refuses to appear even though he is the main character of this competition."

A few grumbling voices sounded in the crowd.

"Overslept? "Hehe, I'm afraid he's going to sleep forever." On the battle stage, the corners of Ling Kun's mouth slightly curled up.

Only he and his father Ling Ba knew the true reason why Ling Yun could not appear.

Ling Kun and Ling Ba, father and son, quietly exchanged a look, and their hearts were filled with wild joy.

It seems like Ole Gold has gotten it!

As long as Fatty Jin found a chance to stop Lingyun, then Lingyun would definitely die.

After all, Fatty Jin was a genuine tenth level Mortal Origin Stage expert, and he also had a broken Origin Tool that could block detection. He could completely take care of Ling Yun without anyone noticing.

The referee looked at the rising sun, and calculated the time. He frowned and said to the stands, "Patriarch, it's almost time, what if Lingyun does not appear?"

"It doesn't matter. I won't mind waiting a little longer."

With one hand behind his back, Ling Kun looked confident, "I'm just afraid that Ling Yun is afraid of me and doesn't dare to show himself, then there'll be no meaning."

"Then let's wait a little longer." Ling Xingye glanced at Ling Kun with a slightly surprised look in his eyes.

"Damn, why is Ling Yun not showing up yet?! "What time is it?!"

As time passed, the dissatisfied voices in the martial arts practice field became louder and louder.

"Ling Yun must be afraid of battle."

"Even if he's afraid of losing, he should at least come up with an excuse. What's the meaning of hiding away like a turtle!"

"This is too disappointing!"
