It must be said.
He Nanru was not exaggerating; these people were indeed the elite city guards and the top combat forces from the major families of Azure Cloud City!
In terms of realm and strength, they were far superior to those Zhuang Ping had brought that day.
If it were anyone else, they would have been crushed in no time.
But for Xiao Lingchen, they were merely slightly troublesome experience points!
At this moment, Xiao Lingchen employed the Shadow Assault Technique, and black shadows instantly bound everyone around him.
"What... what's happening?"
"Why can't I move?"
"What kind of divine power is this?"
While they were bewildered and terrified, Xiao Lingchen, wielding the Phoenix Emperor Sword, charged into the crowd.
At this moment, he transformed into a god of slaughter, leaving death and destruction in his wake!
Amidst the piercing screams, the endless aura of slaughter was absorbed by the Phoenix Emperor Sword and then fed back into Xiao Lingchen!
"Retreat!"
"Quick, retreat!!!"
Xiao Lingchen's decisiveness and ruthlessness caused everyone's faces to change drastically, shouting for a retreat.
Those with slightly stronger abilities could temporarily retreat and evade, while those lacking strength couldn't even break free from Xiao Lingchen's Shadow Assault Technique.
In just a moment, tens of thousands more perished under Xiao Lingchen's sword.
"Xiao Lingchen, you're courting death!"
They had thought that gathering so many strong individuals would easily result in Xiao Lingchen's demise.
Yet, unexpectedly, in just two encounters, most of their people were dead or injured.
In contrast, Xiao Lingchen remained unscathed.
This infuriated He Nanru and everyone present to the point of madness.
"Xiao Family brat, my Lin Family has been slaughtered by you, and today I will kill you!!!"
An elderly man with a youthful face and gray robe roared as he charged at Xiao Lingchen!
This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road. If you spot it on Amazon, please report it.
"Oh? Has the Lin Family already been wiped out by me so quickly?"
Hearing this, Xiao Lingchen was slightly surprised, then laughed:
"So, you must be the Ancestor of the Lin Family who has always remained in seclusion."
"Since all your Lin Family members are dead, you might as well join them!"
Although the Lin Family was not well-known in Azure Cloud City, everyone knew they had an ancestor who was always in closed-door cultivation.
He was the Lin Family's trump card, a presence that other families in Azure Cloud City feared.
Unexpectedly, to besiege him, the Lin Family even brought out this ancestor.
Well, this way, he could deal with the entire Lin Family at once, saving future trouble!
A fierce glint flashed in Xiao Lingchen's eyes.
In a flash, he appeared in front of the Ancestor of the Lin Family.
Then, with one sword strike, he pierced through the ancestor's chest!
Despite his age, the Ancestor of the Lin Family had very ordinary talent, having spent his entire life cultivating, using up most of the Lin Family's resources to barely reach the Dao Palace Realm.
Such a person was naturally no match for Xiao Lingchen.
At this moment, watching the blood gushing from his pierced chest, the Ancestor of the Lin Family was filled with disbelief.
"How... how is this possible..."
"We both have Dao Palace Realm cultivation, why am I not your match?"
Unfortunately, the Ancestor of the Lin Family's question was destined to go unanswered by Xiao Lingchen.
He couldn't be bothered to answer the question of a dying man.
After dealing with the Ancestor of the Lin Family, Xiao Lingchen greedily looked at He Nanru and the others.
In Xiao Lingchen's eyes, these people were all nourishment for his cultivation, and he loved them dearly!
He Nanru and the others naturally noticed Xiao Lingchen's gaze.
Looking at the tens of thousands of them, not only did he show no fear, but he was also filled with bloodthirsty excitement.
This made them all terrified, breaking out in a cold sweat.
Those with unstable Dao hearts were already scared out of their wits, screaming and fleeing.
But in the next second, they were all bound again by Xiao Lingchen's Shadow Assault Technique.
"Since you're here, why leave?"
"I think this place is perfect to become your graveyard!"
"You shall all rest here forever!"
Xiao Lingchen's words were like the whispers of ghosts and gods.
Causing those who were already terrified to completely collapse.
In the next instant, Xiao Lingchen's figure vanished from the spot.
When he reappeared, he was already among the crowd.
The Phoenix Emperor Sword in his hand swung wildly without restraint!
With each swing, tens of thousands fell!
In just a few breaths, the original tens of thousands turned into a mountain of corpses on the ground.
He Nanru's forehead was beaded with cold sweat, his eyelids twitching.
His gaze involuntarily turned to the other family ancestors beside him, speaking solemnly:
"Everyone, at this point, there's no need to hold back."
"If we can't kill this fiend, today we might all meet our end here!"
"Everyone, use your trump cards!!!"
The ancestors of several families nodded in agreement.
Their clansmen had been slaughtered by Xiao Lingchen today, so even if He Nanru hadn't said anything, they wouldn't let Xiao Lingchen go!
"Xiao Family brat, don't be arrogant!"
"Today, even if it means death, I will take your head to honor my fallen clansmen!"
"Give me your life!!!"
As they spoke, the aura around He Nanru and the family ancestors suddenly changed, the powerful cultivation of the Dao Palace Realm surging forth!
One of the family ancestors used some secret technique, pushing his cultivation to the limit.
In just a few breaths, his aura approached the Breaking Illusions Realm!
At the same time, an invisible pressure spread from them, suppressing the area for miles around, as if even the air had solidified!
Then, they attacked without hesitation!
Almost in an instant, they appeared in front of Xiao Lingchen.
The divine artifacts in their hands erupted with terrifying auras, driven by the Dao Palace Realm cultivation, causing the heavens and earth to tremble, then all aimed at Xiao Lingchen.
Seeing this, Xiao Lingchen's expression finally turned serious.
He quickly retreated under the immense pressure.
At the same time, with a thought, he took out the Soul Extinguishing Needle his father had given him and launched it forward!
Though the Soul Extinguishing Needle appeared ordinary, it was the Xiao Family's trump card, having once killed several Dao Palace Realm cultivators, and even severely injured a Breaking Illusions Realm expert!
Once the needle was released, it shot straight toward the family ancestor who had temporarily reached half-step Breaking Illusions Realm!
Seeing this, the family ancestor's face changed dramatically.
He instinctively tried to dodge, but it was too late!
In just an instant, the Soul Extinguishing Needle pierced through the ancestor's chest!
In an instant, the ancestor's aura plummeted, falling from the previous half-step Breaking Illusions Realm to the Dao Palace Realm, and finally not even retaining the Spirit Platform Realm cultivation.
Along with his life force rapidly fading, he fell from the sky, his body and soul perishing!
With that ancestor dealt with, Xiao Lingchen's pressure was greatly reduced.
But he still didn't dare to be careless.
Because He Nanru and the other dozen Dao Palace Realm experts' attacks had already arrived!
