In such a state, even powerful people like them in the Tianhe Realm seemed so powerless.

What made them despair the most was the two weapons in Ling Xiao's hands - the Bloodthirsty Sword Soul and the God-killing Sword Soul.

Under Ling Xiao's control, these two martial arts spirits seemed to have come to life. Every wave was accompanied by a deafening roar, releasing terrifying power that made people palpitate.

Not only are they extremely sharp and can easily tear apart space, they also contain terrifying power that can only be possessed by Earth-level top-grade divine weapons, making them intimidating.

The key point is that Ling Xiao is also well versed in the art of soul magic. He seems to be able to see into people's hearts. The God-killing Sword Intent and Bloodthirsty Sword Intent released inadvertently are like invisible storms, shuttling between the battlefields, allowing people to defend themselves and save their lives.

It's hard to escape the reach of its sharp edges. Every confrontation is frightening and unpredictable.

The Second Protector's brows were almost knitted into knots, and fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead. He knew that if this continued, even if the two of them joined forces, it would be difficult to resist Ling Xiao's endless methods and powerful strength.

The anxiety and urgency in his heart made him whisper: "No, we must break this deadlock, otherwise sooner or later we will be exhausted and defeated. We have to think of a foolproof strategy."

At this time, the Fourth Protector seemed to have caught the determination and helplessness in the eyes of the Second Protector. He thought quickly for a moment, with a flash of light in his eyes, and suggested: "Brother, we might as well retreat to the underground fortress.

It is not only the foundation of our immortal mountain, but also an indestructible refuge.

What's more, Xiao Lianzhu is also imprisoned there, and she is this kid's weakness. If we use this as bait, he will definitely use a trap and not dare to act rashly. In this way, we may be able to find a chance to turn defeat into victory."

Although the conversation between the two was silent, it was clearly transmitted between each other's hearts through the secret sound transmission technique, which not only maintained the concealment of the battlefield, but also avoided the risk of being noticed by Ling Xiao.

When the Second Protector heard this, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes. He nodded heavily, as if he had made up his mind. Then, he cast a firm look at the Fourth Protector. No need to say more, the two of them understood each other tacitly.

The Second Protector moved like an arrow from a string, suddenly accelerated and galloped towards the underground fortress. That was their last line of defense and their hope of counterattack.

The entrance to the underground fortress is hidden behind a dense forest. It looks ordinary on the outside, but in fact it hides a mystery. As the second guardian approaches, the mechanism at the entrance quietly activates, and a thick stone door slowly opens, revealing the entrance to the underground world.

Deep passage.

The Second Protector rushed in without hesitation. He knew that only there could they temporarily escape Ling Xiao's pursuit and plan their next move.

Although the four guardians were eager to retreat, Ling Xiao's insight seemed to be able to penetrate all disguises, and he had already understood the four people's intentions.

At the moment when the Fourth Guardian was about to take a step forward and his body had not completely turned yet, Ling Xiao was as fast as a cheetah hunting, and unprecedented power burst out from his body. This power converged on the bloodthirsty knife in his hand, and there was only a flash of light from the knife, as if

The lightning that pierced the sky instantly split the huge body of the Four Protectors into two.

At that moment, the air was filled with a strong smell of blood and death. The body of the Fourth Protector seemed so fragile under the powerful force. His eyes were full of disbelief and despair, but it was too late.

Ling Xiao's sword not only cut off his physical body, but also devoured his essence of blood and vitality. The soul power gained from years of cultivation was not spared either, and was sucked into the endless darkness.

The surrounding environment, which was originally noisy due to the fierce battle, became extremely quiet at this moment. Only the occasional sound of wind in the distance and the steady breathing of Ling Xiao nearby could be heard. This kind of silence, as if even time has passed.

It solidifies and makes people feel chilly.

In the darkness not far away, Qian Xuejin of Sitong Trading Co., Ltd. witnessed all this. His face was as pale as paper, and fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.

His eyes were fixed on Ling Xiao, and complex emotions surged in his heart - shock, fear, and a hint of fear.

He recalled Ling Xiao's arrogance when he was at Sitong Trading Company. At that time, he only thought that he was young and frivolous, and he didn't know the heights of the world. But now it seemed that what was hidden behind that arrogance was such terrifying strength and confidence.

Qian Xuejin couldn't help but secretly rejoice that he didn't completely break up with Ling Xiao because of impulsiveness. He knew very well that if Sitong Trading Company really went to war with Ling Xiao, even if it could win in the end, it would definitely be severely damaged and suffer heavy losses.

In this world where the weak prey on the strong, once the strength is damaged, it will give other forces an opportunity to take advantage of it. Bada Trading Company or other covetous forces will definitely take advantage of the situation and completely devour Sitong Trading Company.

As if he suddenly realized something, Qian Xuejin slowly turned his head and looked deeply at Qian Yingying beside him, with a somewhat complicated and heavy tone in his voice: "Yingying, you have witnessed all this with your own eyes, and in your heart

Do you still harbor thoughts of revenge?"

When Qian Yingying heard this, her body could not help but tremble more violently, as if even her soul was trembling.

Her eyes were wide open, and her pupils reflected the arrogant figure of Ling Xiao in the distance, as well as the devastated and devastated Huangquan Bulao Mountain, with mourning victims everywhere.

Her hands were clenched into fists, and her nails dug deeply into her palms, but she didn't feel the pain at all, because the fear and shock in her heart far exceeded her physical perception.

She originally thought that as the overlord of Huangquan Bulao Mountain, once its mountain-protecting formation was activated, it would be able to trap Ling Xiao in it like a dragnet, making it difficult for him to fly.

However, reality gave her a resounding slap in the face - not only did Ling Xiao not fall, but with thunderous momentum, he defeated the defenses of Huangquan Bulao Mountain one by one, and five of the eight guardians fell on the spot. In this scene,

The bloody and cruel scenes played in her mind like a nightmare, making her unable to breathe.

"Tianhe Realm... That's the Tianhe Realm!" Qian Yingying murmured to herself in her heart. Although her voice was small, it was full of disbelief and despair.

She knew very well that there were very few strong people in the Tianhe Realm on this continent, and each one of them was enough to shake up a force. But now, such a powerful being was killed by Ling Xiao as easily as an ant. How could this not be allowed?

Does she feel scared and powerless?

Faced with her father's question, Qian Yingying did not answer immediately. Her lips trembled slightly, and she wanted to say something, but she seemed to be choked by an invisible force.

Her eyes were empty and confused, as if they had lost all color and hope, leaving only a dead darkness.

At this moment, she deeply realized that the gap between herself and Ling Xiao was not only a gap in strength, but also a world of difference in mentality and will.
