Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

Ling Zizhe had long forgotten the vows of eternal love between them. All he remembered was his future and status.

As for Wen Ying, in Ling Zizhe's eyes, she was nothing more than a tool to save his life. His feelings for her had long vanished.

Or rather, Ling Zizhe was angry at this moment.

Whenever he thought of Wen Ying exposing her body and lying on Chen Tian's stone bed in the cave, the anger in Ling Zizhe's heart surged uncontrollably.

Although Wen Ying had argued a thousand times that there was nothing between her and Chen Tian, how could Ling Zizhe believe it?

In Ling Zizhe's heart, he already hated Chen Tian and Wen Ying to death.

In fact, Ling Zizhe could have given Wen Ying a quick death, but for this very reason, he suddenly changed his mind, intending to torture Wen Ying first, and then kill her.

Ling Zizhe's eyes flashed fiercely, and with a backhand, he slashed off Wen Ying's other arm.

Fresh blood splattered, spraying Ling Zizhe's face. Like plum blossoms blooming, every drop was filled with the cold of winter.

Ling Yunfeng, standing behind them, saw all of this, but there was no change on his face.

Sacrificing Wen Ying to protect Ling Zizhe was a decision he had already made.

The excruciating pain attacked Wen Ying once again, but she was powerless.

"Heh heh? What, you want to die? It's not that easy!" Looking at Wen Ying's desperate face, Ling Zizhe grinned hideously again: "I want you to experience the taste of pain before you die, and then slowly kill you. I want to prove to you that I am no longer the Ling Zizhe I once was."

'Yes, you are indeed not the Ling Zizhe you once were.'

Looking at Ling Zizhe's ferocious appearance, Wen Ying smiled bitterly in her heart, because the man in front of her was even more cowardly and timid than before.

Although he put on a fierce appearance, he still couldn't hide the incompetence beneath his surface.

Ling Yunfeng, who had been silent all along, seemed to be unable to watch any longer. His eyes narrowed, and he said coldly: "Alright, stop dawdling. It won't be good if someone sees us. Hurry up and do it."

Although Ling Zizhe still wanted to torture Wen Ying a bit more, since Ling Yunfeng had already said so, he reluctantly nodded, grabbed the dripping longsword, and walked towards Wen Ying.

Watching Ling Zizhe walk towards her step by step, Wen Ying felt somewhat relieved, but in the depths of her heart, there was an indelible regret!

"Patriarch… B-Big… Something bad has happened… Patriarch… Where are you?"

Just as Ling Zizhe walked in front of Wen Ying and was about to raise his sword to kill her, a panicked voice rang out outside the door.

This voice startled Ling Zizhe and Ling Yunfeng. Fortunately, Ling Yunfeng reacted quickly, forming a hand seal and setting up an illusion array in the 'Law Enforcement Hall', temporarily concealing the blood-soaked Wen Ying. Then, he tidied his clothes and strode towards the door.

Ling Zizhe first pondered suspiciously for a moment, then glanced at Wen Ying, his eyes narrowed, temporarily giving up on dealing with her, and followed closely behind Ling Yunfeng, also walking outside.

In the cold hall, Wen Ying lay in a pool of blood. Her originally elegant and graceful dress was now soaked in blood. She lay there, her eyes wide open, staring blankly at the dome of the hall, not knowing what she was thinking.

… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … …

The Ling family member didn't speak, but instead pointed tremblingly to the sky with a terrified expression.

Ling Yunfeng looked up at the sky with a puzzled gaze, following his finger.

However, as soon as he looked up, his expression changed drastically!

Above the Ling family, a very strange black cloud was floating.

Although it was late at night, this cloud was even darker than the surrounding night, making it stand out from the crowd and particularly conspicuous.

The moment Ling Yunfeng saw this strange cloud, his expression changed suddenly. Because he felt an extremely powerful aura from this demonic cloud.

"Father, what… what's going on?"

At this time, Ling Zizhe also came to Ling Yunfeng's side. After seeing the strange cloud in the sky, he also seemed very shocked and asked Ling Yunfeng.

When Ling Yunfeng heard Ling Zizhe's question, a trace of panic appeared on his face, and he smiled bitterly: "Zhe'er, I'm afraid our Ling family is in big trouble this time."

Ling Zizhe didn't understand what Ling Yunfeng meant. Just as he was about to ask further, the demonic cloud suddenly rolled up and down strangely. Immediately afterwards, a strange strong man with a snake's head and a human body walked out, came to the sky above the Ling family, and hovered above the Ling family's protective array. His sleeves fluttered in the wind…

It was Snake Wind!

"People… People from the Demon God Sect!"

The moment he saw this strong man, the three words 'Demon God Sect' instantly appeared in Ling Zizhe's mind, causing his body to tremble involuntarily.

Ling Yunfeng, who was on the side, also saw Ling Zizhe's abnormality, his face turned cold, but he ignored him. Instead, he stepped forward and cupped his hands towards Snake Wind and shouted: "May I ask this fellow Daoist, our Ling family and the Demon God Sect have always kept to ourselves. What is the purpose of your large-scale attack today?"

"Purpose? Hehe…" Snake Wind grinned, revealing his two fangs that gleamed with cold light, and said with a 'hiss': "What is our purpose? Doesn't the Ling family head know? If you are sensible, then hand over Wen Ying and Ling Zizhe, as well as the Twilight Spirit Sword. Perhaps this general will be soft-hearted for a moment and spare your lives. But if you don't, hehe, then don't blame our Demon God Sect for being impolite!"

As he said this, the dark clouds behind Snake Wind suddenly dissipated, revealing the thousands of demon beasts hidden within. Each of them bared their teeth and growled in a low voice, as if waiting for Snake Wind's order to pounce on them and tear the Ling family apart!

Seeing this scene, Ling Zizhe trembled even more violently, his legs weakened, and he almost knelt down.

At this time, the Ling family members also rushed over. Although they were a little surprised to see Ling Zizhe like this, they didn't dare to say anything due to their status.

Ling Yunfeng was also angered by Ling Zizhe's incompetent appearance, but now he obviously had more important things to do, so he turned his head and shouted to Snake Wind again: "Not to mention that Wen Ying, the Twilight Spirit Sword and my son are all related to the lifeline of my Ling family. How can I hand them over so easily? I'm sorry, Ling cannot agree to this request!"

"What a 'cannot agree'!" Snake Wind smiled after listening, and then said in a calm and provocative tone: "Even if we destroy your entire Ling family, you still won't agree?"
