Chapter 668 - 657: Xiong Ba’s Father

From the tone of the Divine Guardian, it was evident.

He knew Ding Ling.

He knew, yet dared to steal Ding Ling’s achievements.

Clearly, he had full confidence in their side.

However, the sudden escape of the Great Divine Official still left the Divine Guardian as if struck by lightning, his confidence shaken!

"Purple-clothed Boss, can this seat join hands with you to defeat Ding Ling?"

The Divine Guardian looked at the white-haired man in purple beside him.

"Hehe."

The Purple-clothed Boss smiled slightly, chuckling:

"Divine Guardian, weren’t you the one so confident about ruling over Jiuzhou? Just a mere Ding Ling, and you’re already scared? With your current state, how do you expect to rule Jiuzhou?"

The Divine Guardian’s expression changed slightly, his brows furrowing like blades, just as he was about to speak.

Ding Ling had already lightly landed in front of the two of them, having overheard the conversation between the Purple-clothed Boss and the Divine Guardian.

He glanced at the Purple-clothed Boss:

"Are you Xiong Ba’s father?"

"I didn’t expect that after so many years of staying out of worldly affairs, Ding Ling, you would still recognize someone like me."

The Purple-clothed Boss was slightly surprised, then lightly laughed:

"Since you know of my reputation, you should be aware of my temper. Ding Ling, I warn you. Do not oppose us. Otherwise, you will die a miserable death."

"You all?"

Ding Ling raised an eyebrow:

"As expected, you are part of an organization. Who is leading you?"

The Purple-clothed Boss did not answer, but the Divine Guardian coldly stared at Ding Ling:

"I told you before, no one in this world can command me, the Divine Guardian! If you don’t want to die, step back a hundred yards. Do not oppose us anymore."

"Give me back the box, and I will leave."

Ding Ling extended his hand, glancing expressionlessly at the Divine Guardian:

"The box was discovered by me, there’s no reason for you to benefit from it."

"This box belongs to Emperor Shitian."

The Divine Guardian laughed heartily:

"How did it become yours, Ding Ling? I simply won’t give it to you. What will you do then?"

"Heh."

Ding Ling chuckled lightly, no longer willing to exchange more words with the Divine Guardian, and suddenly attacked!

Supreme Sword Dao!

Heartless Dao!

The Vigorous Qi, Divine Form Power, Wind and Cloud Divine Power, and Ten Directions Invincible within him continually operated without pause, now enhancing the Supreme Sword Dao!

Bang!

A surge of overwhelming Sword Intent transformed into countless Spirit Killing Swords and rushed towards the Divine Guardian!

The two joined forces, by first killing one, the other naturally became no threat!

Peng!

The Spirit Killing Swords were swift as lightning, unseen and traceless. Although the Divine Guardian was extremely vigilant, he initially did not notice at all, until he sensed himself enveloped by a massive amount of Spirit Killing Swords, he widened his eyes, shouted, operated the Divine Skill, stepped on the stream of light, just about to escape, but it was already too late.

Dong dong! The Divine Guardian only heard the sound of drums beating past his ears, as if heavy hammers were madly pounding in his mind. In just a breath’s time, his Spiritual Defense Secret Technique was penetrated, and then his Consciousness Body was shattered.

His racing body, due to inertia, unconsciously ran forward a hundred yards, crashing heavily against the palace gate, clatter!

He flipped over on the ground, eyes vacant, face pale, breathing normal, but he was already a living dead man.

Ding Ling moved his foot, Shrinking Inches.

Came to the side of the Divine Guardian, activated Dragon Capturing Skill, waved his hand to retrieve the box from him, placing it into the Storage Pouch, then leisurely looked towards the Purple-clothed Boss:

"Who is the mastermind behind you?"

"...!!"

The Purple-clothed Boss was stunned.

From Ding Ling’s strike to the Divine Guardian’s death.

It happened in a flash.

The Purple-clothed Boss hadn’t even had a chance to react before the battle was over.

He was shocked, horror-stricken, instinctively stepped back a few paces, eyed Ding Ling cautiously, and said awkwardly:

"Truly worthy of the new emperor of Jiuzhou! Worthy of the one who can easily kill through the Unmoving Human Realm, Free Earth Realm, and Void Sacred Realm, Hero Ding Ling! I am not your equal. How about we shake hands and make peace? Become friends from now on, what do you say?"

His current demeanor and behavior.

Were completely different from just a moment ago!

This showed he must be a scheming, adaptable, ambitious hero-type figure!

Xiong Ba is an ambitious hero.

Perhaps his personality and traits are inherited from his father.

Ding Ling thought of the life of the Purple-clothed Boss and knew this person to be cunning and deceitful. Now upon their first encounter, the drastic contrast in the Purple-clothed Boss’s demeanor further confirmed this point, so he did not respond to the Purple-clothed Boss but said:

"I’ll ask one last time. Who is the mastermind behind you?"

A murderous gleam shone in Ding Ling’s eyes!

The Purple-clothed Boss saw this and felt a chill in his heart, knowing that if he didn’t speak, Ding Ling would surely attack. He dared not hesitate and quickly said:

"I don’t know either. But he’s right outside waiting for us!"

At that moment.

The Purple-clothed Boss greatly admired the actions of the Great Divine Official!

Running away at the first opportunity truly is the wisest choice! Since he didn’t escape, he ended up in this dilemma!

"Oh?"

Ding Ling looked thoughtful:

"Where outside?"

"Right at the gate of the Celestial Sect."

"What cultivation technique do you practice?"

Ding Ling suddenly asked, and the Purple-clothed Boss, not reacting immediately, still instinctively replied:

"Returning Essence Blood Hand!"

Indeed, it’s this martial art!

"Recite the heart technique mantra of this martial art!"

The Returning Essence Blood Hand is an extremely powerful martial art, and Ding Ling vaguely remembers that it is far more powerful than even the North Nether Divine Skill!

What the factual situation is.

Ding Ling needed to see for himself to know.

"This is my foundation, I must refuse!"

The Purple-clothed Boss’s expression changed, solemnly saying:

"Ding Ling, let bygones be bygones. I’ve admitted defeat and conceded today. I hope you can let this go for the sake of my granddaughter Youruo."

"Youruo is Youruo. You are you!"

Ding Ling stared directly at the Purple-clothed Boss, coldly saying:

"If you don’t want to say, then forget it."

The Purple-clothed Boss had blatantly stood with the Divine Guardian from the start, clearly intending to oppose Ding Ling!

And speaking arrogantly, looking down on Ding Ling, showing his ambitious hero nature.

Such a person.

How could Ding Ling let him go?

Letting him go now would be like letting a tiger return to the mountain!

Ding Ling’s Observing People Skill was at full level, penetrating the Purple-clothed Boss’s thoughts with a glance. This man intended not to fight if he could avoid it now, and once he was out of the Celestial Gate Earth Realm, naturally, someone else would take care of Ding Ling, and then he could seize the opportunity to attack Ding Ling mercilessly!

It’s not gentlemanly not to seek revenge!

Ding Ling considered himself not a gentleman, but knowing this person intended to kill him, how could Ding Ling spare him?

"What do you want?"

The Purple-clothed Boss retreated two more steps, warning:

"The person you are looking for has arrived. And I am his most valued person! If you take action against me now, you’re on your own for the consequences!"

"Is that so?"

Ding Ling didn’t even blink, suddenly attacking again.

Supreme Sword Dao!

Heartless Dao!

Under forty times amplification.

The power of the Heartless Dao was too strong.

Invisible, traceless, indeed the top-tier secret skill of slaughter!
