In the village, two figures suddenly appeared.

One was a young man, heroic and composed, his expression gloomy, with eyes filled with a chilling intent to kill.

The other was as if a celestial maiden, face as cold as frost, with eyes shining with a cold light.

Both of them exuded a sense of anger and a fierce killing intent.

"Fanghua, you just stand there and don’t move; leave the dirty work to me."

Ling Xiao knew Yue Fanghua wanted to act, but he felt it was unnecessary.

He released the Little Demoness.

Today, he intended to slaughter heavily.

Yue Fanghua paused for a moment, then said, "I don’t want to see anyone else getting hurt. If you can’t handle it, I’ll step in."

The people of Ling Family Village had shown her kindness, and she naturally couldn’t just stand by and watch them get hurt.

"Of course!"

With that said, Ling Xiao’s figure flashed, like a giant wolf, pouncing towards the nearest disciple of the Secret Realm Academy.

To ensure his future safety in the Imperial Capital, he wore a grim mask on his face.

This mask looked like a ghostly demon, enough to make anyone tremble, exuding an evil allure.

Yue Fanghua also donned a black veil and a hat, sealing her beautiful features.

She seemed to know that her peerless beauty could attract a lot of trouble.

In the village, the disciples of the Secret Realm Academy, who were laughing wildly, suddenly sensed a dangerous aura approaching.

Ling Xiao didn’t bother to hide his aura at all.

The Little Demoness hovered in the sky, searching for targets, ready to strike at any moment.

While he charged at enemies on the ground.

"Kid, who are you, daring to steal business from our Secret Realm Academy?"

The people from the Secret Realm Academy noticed Ling Xiao, who had transformed into a wolf shadow.

However, they seemed to misunderstand.

They believed no lunatic would come to rescue this village, which had offended the Chen Royal Family.

In their eyes, Ling Xiao was just an idiot competing with them for business.

Ling Xiao said nothing, a White Jade Flying Dragon Sword appeared in his hand, and with a flash of sword light, a White Dragon soared.

In an instant.

The disciple with First Stage Yin-Yang Realm, Eighth Layer Hell Early Stage cultivation from the Secret Realm Academy was killed on the spot.

The corpse fell next to a little girl he had killed.

"Kid, don’t you think you’re going too far, daring to kill even members of the Secret Realm Academy? Are you courting death?"

Ling Xiao’s action clearly enraged the people of the Secret Realm Academy.

One of them had already come forward with a swift sword thrust, the blade extremely sharp.

Unfortunately, he faced Ling Xiao.

A true master of swordsmanship.

"You’re not worthy to use a sword!"

Ling Xiao’s cold voice echoed, and under the grim mask, his eyes showed coldness and ruthlessness.

A single stab.

The whistling sword light pierced through that person’s throat.

"What about the Secret Realm Academy? Even if they’re from the Chen Royal Family, I’ll kill them all the same!"

Ling Xiao’s voice echoed with desolation and indignation.

Although these people hadn’t killed his relatives or targeted his family.

He couldn’t tolerate such behavior.

More so, the people of Ling Family Village were the relatives of his good brother, and also the lifesavers of his woman.

If he couldn’t even save these people, then what was the point of cultivating martial arts?

Anger ignited endless strength within him.

The cultivation that was about to break through finally opened the door for him.

First Stage Yin-Yang Realm, Eighth Layer Hell Late Stage cultivation!

Reaching this realm, under the Eighth Layer Hell cultivation, he no longer had any opponents.

Even against a martial artist with First Stage Yin-Yang Realm, Ninth Layer Hell Early Stage cultivation, he could still put up a fight, and with a little luck, even defeat them.

As Ling Xiao spoke, he moved with the Wolf Travel Thousand Miles step, yet another life ended under the indifferent sword light.

Sword raised!

Man fallen!

He wasted no more words, everyone before him deserved to die, and killing them all would leave no innocent among them.

"This guy is insane, does he intend to kill everyone from the Secret Realm Academy? Who is he to dare oppose the Secret Realm Academy?"

The disciples of the Secret Realm Academy finally panicked.

They were merely the lowest-level disciples of the academy, skilled but lacking real combat experience, easily enjoying slaughtering old and weak defenseless villagers.

Yet faced with a truly fearsome opponent, they were at a loss.

Their answer was another flash of sword light.

With it, another person was killed.

"Who exactly are you? Do you truly intend to oppose our Secret Realm Academy?"

Three disciples of the Secret Realm Academy simultaneously blocked Ling Xiao.

Yet their answer was still a flash of sword light.

Without any explanation, the three were decapitated in unison.

Yet Ling Xiao’s sword didn’t stop, continuing the slaughter.

The people from the Secret Realm Academy gradually sensed something wrong, putting down their tasks and gathering around Ling Xiao.

Preparing to encircle and kill Ling Xiao.

"Let’s work together to kill this brute. I want to see what deity he is to be so rampant!"

Ling Xiao’s face remained indifferent.

Even now, the Little Demoness hadn’t acted.

Because it wasn’t necessary.

The newly breakthroughs in Ling Xiao’s cultivation made him like a fierce beast entering a flock of sheep.

His sword was like the sickle of the God of Death, wildly reaping the lives of these beasts.

With a touch of his sword qi, none were seriously injured.

Because they all died.

"Kill!"

The people from the Secret Realm Academy finally advanced together, as they clearly knew their opponent was formidable.

Continuing to watch would only lead to being defeated individually.

Thus, they had no choice but to unite.

However, what met them was an even more powerful attack.

"Seventh Secret of Light—Light Sword Domain!

Seventh Arcane of Darkness—Dark Sword Domain!"

Even in his rage, Ling Xiao calmly chose his former moves to deal with these beasts.

Because once he used martial arts from the Xuanwu Continent, once in the Imperial Capital, he would quickly be recognized, wouldn’t he?

Moreover, the power of the Light and Shadow Mystique was by no means weaker than his currently strongest moves.

The two Sword Domains activated.

Dark sword qi and white sword qi intertwined, storming into the crowd like a fierce storm.

Yet these sword qis seemed to have eyes, precisely avoiding the people from Ling Family Village.

Attacking only the martial artists of the Secret Realm Academy.

In just this instant, a group of Secret Realm Academy martial artists who had been charging towards Ling Xiao were all frozen there.

Every eye was filled with overwhelming terror.

Their throats, heads, and hearts were almost all pierced through.

Each of them felt death approaching rapidly.

"Devil! We don’t want these people anymore; we’ll give them all to you. Please, spare us."

What are the Secret Realm Academy disciples anyway?

Just moments ago they were arrogant and invincible, and now, to save their lives, they must beg Ling Xiao for mercy.

Such is reality.

The reality brought by immense power.

"Who?! Who is so bold to dare attack my Secret Realm Academy disciples?"

From a thatched hut, a few people suddenly emerged.

One of them, clothes disheveled, clearly having just finished a beast-like act.
