A Demon’s Path

It was naturally Yao Wan who said this, which made Bai Jian a little surprised.

Bai Jian knew that Yao Wan's identity was the female general of the Tower of Gods and Demons, and that Ling Xiao was the grandson of the Lord of the Demon Soul and the son of the Great Demon Lord Ling Feng. How could these two people with completely opposite identities come to an end? Together?

The Ling family and Murong Hua of the Tower of Gods and Demons are at odds with each other. The attitude of the four great families is to not mess with either side. On the surface, they are friendly with the Tower of Gods and Demons. "It doesn't hurt either.

But these two...

Bai Jian shook his head secretly, don't care what they like.

Seeing Yao Wan follow, Ling Xiao said mockingly: "The last time I followed me was to get the formation-breaking jade, this time, what reason do you have to follow me?"

Yao Wan ignored Ling Xiao's teasing, and said, "I like it, is it okay? Let me follow, just a word."

"The feet are with you, you can do whatever you want." Ling Xiao snorted twice, then turned around and waved at the crowd: "Let's go, let's go back to the Tiancao Sect."

When Ling Xiao said that, he obviously agreed.

Yao Wan quickly followed Ling Xiao, cursing secretly in her heart: "Pervert, can't you refuse?"

Yao Wan very much hoped that Ling Xiao would reject her, so that she would have a reason to go back and return. But she didn't want Ling Xiao to refuse, because if she couldn't complete the task, she and her mother would die.

Such contradictory psychology made Yao Wan suffer so many times, but no matter what, she finally kept up with Ling Xiao.

As for the result, Yao Wan never thought about it. Deep down in her heart, perhaps Yao Wan longed for the day when Ling Xiao could discover her sinister intentions for following him, and then cut herself in two with a slaughter god.

Ling Xiao didn't know what Yao Wan was thinking, what he had to do now was to go back to the Tiancao Sect to hide, sacrifice the three treasures of the Dao of Heaven with all his might, and strive to enter the Dao of Heaven as soon as possible.

As long as he can enter the world of heaven again, he will be able to meet the old captain and know the past that his father did not tell him. More importantly, Ling Xiao wanted to ask the old captain for help, to see if he could find a way to break the Heavenly Sacrifice Law.

Other than that, Ling Xiao could only temporarily put aside things like competing with the Tower of Gods and Demons.

Vengeance is to be avenged, but the first priority is to restore the mother's freedom.

It would be a lie to say that Ling Xiao never hated her parents for abandoning her. But as he grew up, he realized that no parents in the world would abandon their children, as long as they weren't the kind that had no conscience.

Therefore, finding his parents has always been a goal of his life. Then, he drifted around with the long river of fate, and finally he was about to drift to the destination of his life.

At this moment, Ling Xiao was even more anxious, eager to reach the destination.

Even though there were battles between the demon clan and the tower of gods and demons everywhere along the way, Ling Xiao, who likes to watch the excitement, didn't bother to take a look at it, so he led everyone back to the Tiancao Sect, and immediately announced the retreat.

"God and Demon Token, Mirror of Reincarnation, and Tianyan Jade Jue, come out!" In the suzerain's training room, Ling Xiao sacrificed three treasures of the Dao of Heaven.

The three treasures are suspended above Ling Xiao's head with great spirituality, and they revolve around Ling Xiao's head in a triangle.

As they revolved around Ling Xiao, they emitted black and white mist representing the yin and yang of the heavens. These black and white mist enveloped Ling Xiao who was sitting cross-legged, making Ling Xiao's figure sometimes bright and sometimes dark.

With the passage of time, Ling Xiao's body unexpectedly became transparent, and his fleshy body seemed to turn into a phantom. Fortunately, no one was around to see this scene at this time, otherwise, Ling Xiao might be scared out of his wits on the spot.

Ling Xiao only felt that there was a void in his mind, and what floated in front of his eyes was a vast sea of ​​clouds, and the whole world seemed to be enveloped by this sea of ​​clouds. As long as you push aside this sea of ​​clouds, you will be able to see the origin of the world clearly.

"Boy, you are here again." On the vast and boundless river, the old captain held the pole of the boat and smiled gently at him.

But after what happened last time, in Ling Xiao's mind, the gentle smile of the old captain at this time became even more treacherous than the smile of the most treacherous businessman in the world.

Even if he was dissatisfied with the old captain, Ling Xiao didn't dare to show it on his face. He still bowed to the old captain humbly: "Senior, I want to ask you two things..."

The old captain shook his head and raised his index finger: "With your current power of heaven, you can only solve one problem. You can tell me after you have made your own choice."

Ling Xiao really wanted to scold someone, but she didn't know where to start. Full of grievances, Ling Xiao said bitterly: "Okay, tell me first, how can I get rid of the Heavenly Sacrifice Law on my mother."

As the sole manager of the Heavenly Dao Realm, Ling Xiao had every reason to believe that the old captain knew everything that happened in the Three Realms, so he directly posed his own problem without any unnecessary explanations.

The old captain picked up the pipe and took a few puffs, leisurely exhaled a smoke ring: "There is a way, but the price is too high."

"Say." Ling Xiao looked directly at the old captain, as if he wanted to squeeze out everything the old captain knew immediately with his own eyes.

"There are two methods. The first is to put the three treasures in your hands back on the altar of the Tower of Gods and Demons, and your mother's Heavenly Sacrifice will be lifted."

The old captain explained: "This method is simple and direct, but because these three treasures have been away from the altar for too long, if they are placed again, they may automatically absorb the power of the Three Realms due to the excessive power of the heavens. The power of the heavenly law, thus causing chaos in the order of the Three Realms."

Ling Xiao felt ruthless, and said, "I don't care if the order of the Three Realms is chaotic or not. I just need my mother to regain her freedom!"

The old captain grinned and said, "If your mother wants you to do this, do you think she will become a stone statue voluntarily?"

Ling Xiao was speechless.

Indeed, my mother is too kind. Although the chaos in heaven and order was caused by my mother's unintentional mistake, she didn't need to make such a big sacrifice at all.

It wasn't her fault alone, and it wasn't her fault primarily. The biggest responsibility bearer should be that hateful Murong Huatian!

If he hadn't killed his entire family, his parents wouldn't have brought such terrible disasters to the Three Realms because of him.

However, the mother still stood up to take on this responsibility, and paid a price that ordinary people could not tolerate.

If a person can't move, or even die, just thinking about that kind of eternal pain will make people feel frightened!

The mother is willing to bear these things, and has no complaints or regrets so far. If he violates her wishes, even if he saves her, Ling Xiao reckons that she will continue to use the Heavenly Sacrifice method.

This first method seems to be unworkable.

"What about the second method?" Ling Xiao continued to ask.

"Hey..." The old captain looked Ling Xiao up and down, as if looking at something: "I guess you wouldn't choose the second method."

Ling Xiao: "..."

Ling Xiao has been in seclusion for five long years, and no one knows what he has realized.

Everyone only knew that when Ling Xiao walked in, he was at the Seven Souls Orange level, and when he came out, he was still at the Seven Souls Orange level.

Nothing seemed to have changed except that his beard and hair had grown considerably.

But if someone looked at Ling Xiao's eyes seriously, they would often have the illusion that Ling Xiao's pupils were white on the left and black on the right.

Those one white and one black pupils seem to be able to see through people's hearts, making people in a trance, and there will always be various hallucinations, either in the past or in the future.

Ling Xiao has such a pair of terrifying eyes, as a result, no one dares to look directly into his eyes, and the disciples of the Tiancao Sect avoid him even more.

"What's wrong with you?" Long Yuxuan asked worriedly: "You seem to be deliberately trying to make people afraid of you."

After coming out of retreat, Ling Xiao got rid of his beard and hair, and returned to his original appearance, but the eyes were still so daunting: "It's nothing, I just learned some interesting things."

Long Yuxuan felt that although Ling Xiao's appearance hadn't changed at this time, his temperament was completely different from before.

Long Yuxuan couldn't say what changed, but she could really feel Ling Xiao's change.

That look, by the way, should be called indifference.

Although Ling Xiao used to be cruel and merciless, he only showed this kind of look when he was dealing with enemies.

But now, even if he was facing him, his eyes were still so sharp and aggressive.

"You have changed." Long Yuxuan said worriedly after dressing Ling Xiao.

"Really?" Ling Xiao smiled disapprovingly: "Why didn't I think so. By the way, I've been in retreat for five years? What happened outside?"

Long Yuxuan couldn't figure out why Ling Xiao didn't ask about his mother when he came out, but other things, which made Long Yuxuan's confusion about Ling Xiao even more extreme.

Long Yuxuan suppressed the doubts in her heart, and told what happened to Ling Xiao during the five years of retreat.

The Amakusa Sect is still the Amakusa Sect, no one can shake it. Even if Ling Xiao retreated, no one dared to touch the Tiancao Sect.

The priests and warriors of the Tower of Gods and Demons once touched the disciples of the Amakusa Sect, but none of them survived the next day.

As for the four aristocratic families, the Lan family and the Tiancao sect have formed a solid alliance, and since the last family accident, they have developed rapidly again, even surpassing the other three aristocratic families.

And those monster races seem to know something, and they don't bother the Lan family, they specialize in attacking the sects of the aristocratic family that are closely related to the tower of gods and demons.

The Tower of Gods and Demons originally wanted to help these aristocratic families, but the formation of the Demon Soul Mountain Range was activated, and Ling Mietian and Ling Feng officially announced their strong return to the Heavenly Soul Continent.

At this time, the entire Tianhun Continent is in the tug-of-war between the Tower of Gods and Demons, the Alliance of Gods and Demons, and the demon clan. There are not many big battles, but many small battles, and gunpowder is everywhere.

After hearing this, Ling Xiao smiled slightly: "Okay, since grandpa and dad have started to fight, then I can't lag behind. I will contact the Lan family now and officially declare war on the tower of gods and demons!"

Long Yuxuan's heart shuddered, maybe even Ling Xiao didn't realize that the smile on his face was so cruel.
