Chapter 372 (1/2)

”The entrance?! Just the entrance?” Ling Jian was completely dumbfounded and his eyes almost popped out, ”This is being one with the sword, the legendary peak of swordplay! Why did young n.o.ble say that it was only the entrance? Did young n.o.ble really say that?” After achieving a breakthrough, Ling Jian felt as though he was invincible apart from the young n.o.ble. However, he never imagined that this was merely the entrance in the eyes of the young n.o.ble! How could Ling Jian not be shocked?

”Mmm,” Ling Chen said as she recalled, ”Back then, young n.o.ble had said that there are two higher realms after being one with the sword! That was the true way of the sword and the true realm of an expert!”

”What realm?” Ling Jian asked impatiently.

”I don't know either.” Ling Chen smiled, ”Young n.o.ble didn't mention it. It seems as though he has not reached that realm yet either. However, that green-robed expert has! Thus, you would only be seeking your death to try and save the young n.o.ble! Additionally, the young n.o.ble would also be placed in a spot if you were to go!”

”...” Ling Jian lowered his head in a deflated manner as he thought,

This Ling Chen, bringing me up to a high and mercilessly slamming me back into h.e.l.l! To think that she gave me such an answer at the very end!

Ling Jian could not help but sigh to the heavens

, What a vicious lady!

”Err, also, why didn't you allow me to kill those brats just now?” Ling Jian suddenly thought about this and asked.

”Are you pig-headed?! Young n.o.ble isn't wrong to scold you as such!” Ling Chen scolded, ”Since the Yu Family wants to swallow our Ling Family, why can't we make use of the opportunity to plot against them? Since they are now in the position of power!” Ling Chen let out a mysterious smile, ”Besides, you revealing your strength would be akin to revealing the tip of the iceberg to the Yu Family and they would definitely place their focus on our Ling Family Courtyard! If that's the case, it would be extremely beneficial to your First Pavilion's plan in Northern Wei!”

Ling Jian looked at Ling Chen dumbly and felt as though the one standing in front of him was Ling Tian. The familiar strategies and the familiar feeling of being unable to see through the plan completely. To think that he would have such a feeling again because of Ling Chen!

Shaking his head, Ling Jian took a few steps forward and only left behind a single phrase, ”La.s.s Chen, it is time for you to kill and come into contact with some blood.”

Ling Chen only let out a smile but did not say a word. She did not agree with Ling Jian but also did not reject him like she usually would.

Above the Sky Bearing City in the night, countless messenger pigeons took to the air and flew off in all directions.

As for Ling Tian at the moment, his footsteps had never slowed down as he traversed the earth like a strong gust of wind. The moment one caught a glimpse of him, he would disappear the very next moment! The frightening speed that he displayed made one gasp in admiration!

If a normal person could maintain such a speed for a short while, he would be considered a movement technique expert. However, Ling Tian had already maintained such a speed for a full four hours!

Throughout the five days of him escaping, Ling Tian was completely unable to escape from Justice's furious pursuit despite using the many techniques from his previous life and mystical concealment techniques. If it were any other person, he probably would have been killed by Ling Tian's many sure-kill techniques. But in front of absolute strength, all of his so-called techniques were no different from paper tigers. At every single moment every day, Ling Tian could clearly feel the p.r.i.c.kling cold killing intent at his back as though there was an ice-cold snake slithering around behind him. Furthermore, this ice-cold snake had the ability to easily take his life!

In the five days of the chase, Ling Tian had already exhausted his inner qi twice in order to escape! Despite using all of the various means and ideas he had, Ling Tian was never able to gain more than a 6 hour lead over Justice!

Furthermore, Ling Tian would have to lead such a life for a full half a year! At the same time, Ling Tian was beginning to run out of fresh ideas and he did not dare to use the same technique in front of Justice twice!
