Chapter 2708 - 2711: Liu Yan – The Pitiful Coward Scared into Hallucinations

"Fortunately we're from the same sect, otherwise Zheng Quan and Liu Xu might have lost their lives already. I've heard that Ling Xiao is now the number one on the Volcano Evil List.

The ranking is even higher than the Sect Leader, all because of his actions in Thunder City.

Who would have thought he even defeated Chen Cangxiong?"

Zheng Quan and Liu Xu both turned pale.

The various rumors about Ling Xiao had already spread throughout the Demon Dragon Sect, and his achievements overwhelmed countless disciples of the Demon Dragon Sect in admiration.

Right now, this person stood in front of them, yet he was their enemy.

"Impossible! You must be lying, even if you are Ling Xiao, I absolutely don't believe you can defeat Chen Cangxiong!"

Liu Yan suddenly shouted.

"He's not lying, I saw the whole process. If it weren't for him, I would have been killed by Chen Cangxiong.

The Sect Master himself witnessed the shocking reversal of Chen Cangxiong by Ling Xiao, otherwise why do you think the Sect Master would have chosen him as the closed-door disciple?"

Chen Luan looked at Liu Yan and sarcastically said, "You've been arrogant and bullying habitually, now you know there's always someone better, something beyond your understanding, don't you?"

"Hmph, who would believe what you're saying? What's your proof?"

Of course, Liu Yan didn't want to believe what Chen Luan said, he snorted, "Senior Brother Chen, you don't have to make up such ridiculous reasons just to build up his momentum, do you?"

Bang!

Suddenly, a blood-red longsword appeared in Ling Xiao's hand.

"Do you need proof? Do you recognize the Blood Thunder King Sword?"

Ling Xiao looked at Liu Yan with disdain. He had the least regard for this kind of person who only knew how to fight internally.

If you're capable, go fight against the Chen Royal Family, fight against your enemies.

"That's right, that's truly the Blood Thunder King Sword!"

A cry of astonishment erupted from the crowd.

"I've seen Chen Cangxiong use this sword before, it's exactly identical, the aura has no difference. It's impossible for there to be two identical swords in this world."

"I've seen it too. My goodness, did Ling Xiao really defeat Chen Cangxiong? His apparent cultivation level must be faked, right?"

"It must be. There're indeed some cunning Martial Artists who love to play the pig to eat the tiger, maybe he is one of those."

People were discussing, already elevating Ling Xiao to the heavens.

At this moment, even Liu Yan dared not act against Ling Xiao.

Even if the Demon Dragon Sect Leader Chen Buyi didn't care about this, he simply had no confidence to defeat Ling Xiao.

This Ling Xiao guy was far more powerful than he imagined.

"Don't worry, I won't bully you because you're simply not my opponent!"

Ling Xiao looked at Liu Yan's apprehensive face and sneered, "However, you showed me disrespect and still need to face a little punishment.

If you can defeat my little partner, Xiao Jin, today's matter will be written off."

He gently stroked Xiao Jin's head.

Xiao Jin chirped twice.

This made Liu Yan's face look extremely pale.

"How dare you insult me like this? Even if you're stronger than me, you shouldn't use a bird to mock me!"

He felt belittled, humiliated.

"No, no, no, you've misunderstood. Facing Xiao Jin, you might not be able to withstand even a single strike!

So don't think you're being underestimated. On the contrary, I take you very seriously."

Ling Xiao wagged his finger, smiling.

Although he couldn't just kill people here, giving these guys a show of force to let them know he wasn't one to be messed with could help prevent some trouble.

This would give him more time to cultivate.

"Then I'll kill it first! I'll let you know Liu Yan is not to be humiliated!"

Liu Yan roared and behind him emerged a Martial Soul, surprisingly a bright green long snake.

This snake flicked its tongue, releasing an indescribably evil aura.

"Turns out it's a Snake Martial Spirit. I've seen several people with it. A friend of mine also has a Snake Martial Spirit, but he's much more classy than you."

Ling Xiao looked at Liu Yan's Martial Soul, smiling faintly, "Even if you use your Martial Soul, it's no use.

In front of Xiao Jin, it's just an insignificant little bug.

Xiao Jin, don't be too harsh, just give him a lesson. After all, we're from the same sect."

Ling Xiao said softly.

As soon as his voice fell, Xiao Jin suddenly transformed into a streak of golden light, pouncing towards Liu Yan without even reverting to its giant Golden Crow form.

It was just a small bird the size of a palm.

"Simply seeking death!"

Liu Yan sneered, Ling Xiao actually had such contempt for him, using this palm-sized small bird to deal with him.

This feeling almost made his heart explode with rage.

He intended not only to kill Xiao Jin.

But also to make Xiao Jin die extremely unpleasantly.

Suddenly, he punched, the fist like a Giant Python twisting forward, releasing a monstrous pressure like a Giant Beast.

But in that instant.

Liu Yan suddenly shivered.

It wasn't because of cold.

But because of immense fear.

He felt the palm-sized bird released an earth-shattering and terrifying aura.

The aura seemed capable of completely melting him, leaving not a single trace.

He even got the illusion of seeing himself being crazily incinerated in a fierce fire.

And he could only scream, utterly unable to resist.

"No, how can this be!

I truly can't be a match for this small bird!

It turns out I'm not even as good as a beast, yet I dared to think of defeating its master?"

In this moment, Liu Yan was plunged into utter despair and defeat.

Facing the golden bird's strike, he completely lost the courage to resist.

Because no matter how he resisted, it seemed that he couldn't escape death.

This feeling seems long in words, but it was actually just a momentary thing.

The people around felt nothing amiss, even thinking it was somewhat amusing.

They really didn't understand why Ling Xiao let a little golden bird handle Liu Yan.

But at this moment, Liu Yan truly felt that searing pain.

His fist seemed as if it was thrown into a terrible blaze.

He could feel his skin being burnt, his bones melting away.

"Ah——!"

He let out an earthshattering scream.

Yet, it was somewhat incomprehensible to others.

Because the golden bird didn't even touch Liu Yan, just fluttered its wings about a foot away from him.

Liu Yan, however, was clutching his head, screaming in agony.

His extreme fear led him to hallucinate, overwhelmed by the terrifying pressure released by Xiao Jin, plunging him into chaos.

"Unexpectedly, you're even more of a loser than I thought, Xiao Jin, come back."

Ling Xiao beckoned and Xiao Jin flew back onto his shoulder.

And at this time Liu Yan also recovered from his chaotic state, only to hear the first words—

"Being terrified by my little partner to the point of being unable to tell illusion from reality, a Martial Artist like you is truly laughable.

Noble?

Elder Zong's grandson?

Exceptional talent?

Stronger than me?

Don't you think your words have become a huge joke?"

Ling Xiao looked at Liu Yan with contempt, he really didn't expect this fool to be so useless.
