Chapter 2669 - 2672: Revisiting the Wisdom Sage King Mansion: The Demon Shadow Sect's Minions

"Why is the Blood Demon Envoy so agitated?"

The Green Thunder General asked in confusion.

"He's here! It must be him! Hahaha, such audacity, such arrogance from this boy!

To think he dares to enter the enemy territory alone, this Ling Xiao, truly worthy of the chaos he's caused even among the Chen Royal Family."

The Blood Demon Envoy did not reply, but laughed heartily.

"The Blood Demon Envoy must be joking, even if Ling Xiao had a hundred lives, facing the wrath of the Thunder Venerate, he could only hide in Eight Immortals County City, relying on the Ten Absolute Formations to save his life.

How could he dare come to Thunder City?"

The Green Thunder General simply did not believe it.

The Building Master didn't believe it either.

The Second Building Master found it even more unbelievable.

"It's fine if you don't believe, accompany this Demon Envoy to kill him, and you'll know the truth."

The Blood Demon Envoy stood up, coldly smiled, and said.

"What if we kill the wrong person?"

The Building Master asked.

"If it's wrong then so be it, better to kill ten thousand by mistake than let one go, that's the way we do things in the Demon Shadow Sect."

The Blood Demon Envoy coldly laughed.

"Haha, indeed deserving of the name Demon Shadow Sect, but doing it here in the Volcano Tower won't be good.

It would damage the reputation of my Volcano Tower."

The Building Master joked.

"Are you going to stop me?"

The Blood Demon Envoy's eyes flashed coldly, a sign of a potential fight.

"Blood Demon Envoy, we are all on the same side, why would I stop you? Just suggesting a change of place."

The Building Master said blandly, "Once you leave the Volcano Tower, the matter of who killed him is none of our concern.

Oh right, Second Master, take that Spirit Stone first, since that guy is already a dead man, it'd be a waste not to take it."

"Hehe, rest assured, big brother, I know what to do."

The Second Building Master chuckled sinisterly, aligning perfectly with the Building Master's intentions.

And then, he looked at the Blood Demon Envoy and said, "Blood Demon Envoy, that boy has a golden bird with him, don't kill it, I fancy it a lot."

"Don't worry, once he's dead, the bird is yours."

The Blood Demon Envoy couldn't care less about a golden bird, "But you people at the Volcano Tower are truly despicable.

Taking his money without doing the job, and even selling his life to me, can this be justified?"

"Despicable? Pot calling the kettle black, what can you do if the boy is a fool?

If he is Ling Xiao, to kill him is just right!

If he isn't, then he's just too stupid.

How dare he so boldly buy information on the Wisdom Sage King Mansion, huh.

The information is given, but what happens once he arrives at the Wisdom Sage King Mansion is none of our business."

The Building Master didn't see 'despicable' as derogatory, he seemed quite pleased with himself.

"All cunning old foxes!"

The Green Thunder General remarked with a laugh while watching the scene: "Everyone only knows that the Volcano Tower is run by the people of Volcano Kingdom.

Yet they don't realize it's actually an intelligence agency used by the Fourteenth Prince to gather information.

With this incident, the Building Master and your group are likely to gain even more favor from the Fourteenth Prince."

"Alright, let's not pat each other's backs, and focus on our tasks."

The Blood Demon Envoy coldly laughed: "I will go and prepare an ambush at the Wisdom Sage King Mansion."

With that, he turned and left.

"This general also has to report to the Thunder Venerate, in case that boy is indeed Ling Xiao, we must make every effort to capture him."

The Green Thunder General also turned and left.

A moment later, the Second Building Master returned to the small room where Ling Xiao was, smiling as he said: "The information you want to buy, we plan to sell it.

The Wisdom Sage King Mansion is now an abandoned residence.

Those who were supposed to protect the Wisdom Sage King have been dispatched to the border due to their failure.

The mansion is sealed, and no idlers are allowed in, entering without permission is punishable by death!"

"Thank you."

Ling Xiao was quite satisfied to receive this piece of news.

However, he was quite puzzled as to where Tushan Min Er had taken the corpse of the Wisdom Sage King?

But puzzled or not, he still rose and left.

"Young master, take care."

The Second Building Master personally escorted Ling Xiao out of the Volcano Tower, though his eyes remained locked on Xiao Jin.

"Hehe, little treasure, just wait a bit longer, soon you'll belong to me.

As for that boy, whether or not he is Ling Xiao doesn't matter, because soon, he'll be dead!"

Watching Ling Xiao leave, the Second Building Master sneered internally.

After leaving the Volcano Tower, Ling Xiao arrived at a restaurant near the Wisdom Sage King Mansion.

This location provided a higher vantage point for him to observe the mansion.

"What's wrong, boss? Don't you feel something off?"

Xiao Jin asked.

"Hmph, I always felt something off about the Volcano Tower, and this encounter confirms my suspicions."

Ling Xiao coldly sneered, continuing, "There's an ambush in the Wisdom Sage King Mansion, and the presence there is recent, clearly since we arrived.

This only proves one thing, that the Volcano Tower sold us out, yet dared to take our money!"

"What do we do now, boss, not go?"

Xiao Jin asked.

"Not go? Since we've arrived, how could we not? Although they have an ambush, it's poorly prepared due to its haste, which is to our advantage."

Ling Xiao chuckled coldly, "As for the Volcano Tower, well, just wait, once this is over, I'll make sure they pay!"

With that cold laugh, Ling Xiao left the restaurant, heading straight to the Wisdom Sage King Mansion.

Though he didn't know who was lying in ambush, he knew for certain they were foes.

Since he decided to cause chaos in Thunder City, he might as well start with these foes.

Using himself as bait for this trap, he did not expect to be disappointed.

Upon entering the Wisdom Sage King Mansion, Ling Xiao didn't immediately engage the ambushers but headed directly to the entrance of the underground chamber.

The primary reason for his visit to the Wisdom Sage King Mansion was still the Nine Nether Huangquan Golden Crow Soul Fragments.

Acquiring it would ensure greater safety during his Thunder City journey.

After all, Xiao Jin could grow stronger.

Finding the entrance to the chamber was easy, but the magic array on the chamber's door was difficult to crack.

Ling Xiao left this matter to his Master Yuan Venerate.

For he had noticed the enemies approaching.

Dozens of shadows emerged from every corner, sealing off his escape route.

The air was heavy with the scent of blood.

This blood scent was all too familiar to Ling Xiao.

"Demon Shadow Sect? Are you from the Thunder City Demon Shadow Sect?"

Ling Xiao had no fondness for such organizations like the Demon Shadow Sect, even without enmity he'd seek to eliminate them.

Not to mention that they now sought to kill him.

"Kid, you've got a keen eye, I am the Blood Demon Envoy, ranked third among the Ten Demon Envoys of Thunder City Demon Shadow Sect.

Today, you've encountered me, consider yourself doomed."

The Blood Demon Envoy coldly stated, "Do you remember the demon envoy you killed in Eight Immortals County City? He was my son, today, I will avenge him."

"First Cycle of Yin-Yang Realm, Early Stage of the Eleventh Layer of Hell Cultivation?"

Ling Xiao frowned; the strength of this enemy truly surprised him.

Fortunately, there was only one warrior of the Eleventh Layer of Hell cultivation, otherwise, acquiring those Nine Nether Huangquan Golden Crow Soul Fragments today would be troublesome.
