Chapter 360: Ling Tianlongs Mistake (2/2)
In leisure, Dandan acted like a normal animal, killing every helpless human that she could find.
Many Mount Hua Sect's disciples and weak elders tried to get back on their feet or circulate their Qi. Unfortunately, the roar of Mao Xueyan had already crippled them to the point that they couldn't move an inch.
These men kept staring at the two predators as they waited for their death, one by one.
The experience was horrifying as they could do nothing but watching their friends being bitten and torn by the two tigers. They peed their pants and tried to beg for their lives, but no word could come out of their mouth.
Some of them even thought that they would be eaten alive soon!
…
RUMBLE
A few seconds later after they had crippled everyone, a loud noise distracted Mao Xueyan and Dandan.
Someone had been fighting and causing a loud noise toward the north.
Mao Xueyan stopped killing the remaining survivor and gazed in the direction, looking at the two cultivators, who had just finished their duel.
The tiger muttered to herself, ”Lu Fengxian?”
Dandan also looked at the distorted sky at the north. She was also curious, ”Was it Miaomiao's master?”
”Yeah, that's probably him.”
”Wow. He's freaking strong! I think he's even stronger than Miaomiao!”
Mao Xueyan snorted and turned his attention to her living preys nearby. She bit another man's throat and complained, ”Meh, Miaomiao will eventually get stronger than that man. Arrogant cultivators will eventually face a bottleneck somewhere because they always have heart demons, and they won't be able to get stronger for centuries! You know, Miaomiao might be dumb, silly, perverted, and clumsy, but he's always humble and kind! Have you seen Miaomiao going around and pointing his fingers arrogantly like he was some kind of an emperor like that man did? Of course not! He's a better man! Every time he needed help, he begged others instead of ordering them even though he has the authority over this entire city! Also, Miaomiao doesn't hog the pylon tower to himself, but he…”
The praise and comparison went on and on.
Mao Xueyan hadn't realized it yet. At the moment, she couldn't stop talking. Moreover, her pupils expanded and brightened like a child who had been talking about something that she was interested in.
Listening to her sister, Dandan had been grinning from ear to ear. She snickered and continued trampling on the injured cultivators on the ground.
'Dear sister, next year mating season, I'll tie you up and throw you to Miaomiao's room. You should have been honest about your feeling. Or rather… Should I ask Sister Ju Shoufen to make aphrodisiac drugs for female beast folks? Humans can have sex whenever they want. Maybe they can do something about our mating season circle.'

10 Kilometers East of Siren City
Although Ling Tianlong had asked his colleagues to hide in the forest, south of Siren City, he hid his real body inside a cave as he didn't trust anybody, including his allies. Even Ling Cao didn't know that Ling Tianlong's real body was here.
The real body of Ling Tianlong snapped open his eyes and panted. He glanced at his chest and touched the place where Lu Fengxian had stabbed him.
The slightest touch sent a sharp pain to his body as if his nervous system had been damaged.
WHOOSH
The immortal-grade sword, which Ling Tianlong's clone had used, flew back to his side.
Ling Tianlong glanced at his partner and sighed, feeling relieved that the sword hadn't been stolen.
PRICK
As soon as Ling Tianlong attempted to stand, all his nerves sent immeasurable pain signals to his brain as if his body had been struck by lightning.
”Ugh!”
Unable to withstand the pain, Ling Tianlong collapsed on the ground.
Suspected that he had suffered an internal injury, Ling Tianlong circulated his essence, attempting to regenerate or repaired the damaged organs.
However, all his internal organs were fine. Yet, the torturing pain remained.
”This injuries… can it be!?”
While lying on the ground on his stomach, Ling Tianlong closed his eyes and meditated.
It was not a normal meditation as Ling Tianlong's mind keep diving into his inner conscience. He kept going deeper, deep enough to find the embryo of his soul!
This embryo would become his nascent soul in the future. However, at the moment, what should have been a taintless crystal ball was cracked.
Upon finding the source of his injury, Ling Tianlong opened his eyes and bit his lower lips in anger.
'Soul injury! Ding Bu, you traitorous bastard. That sword must have been forged with soul stones! Only immortals from the immortal realms can possess that type of sword! How did he get that sword? Was he a vessel of a dao god or an immortal!?'
As Ling Tianlong was enraged and frustrated, he closed his eyes and reviewed what he had seen inside the city after the concealment array was destroyed.
He tried to analyze the city, the local people, and the secrets of Siren City, investigating who might be this city's backer.
Ling Tianlong was born with a picture memory when he was an immortal in his previous life. Even now, his abilities got carried over to this body.
It wasn't hard for him to concentrate and think of what he had seen, even if it was briefly and unintentionally seen with the corner of his eyes.
In one of these memorable pictures in his mind, several demonic women gathered at the center of the city, the big mansion near the tallest tower.
And one of them had two short horns, which belonged to the Oni Tribe!
'Wait… I definitely saw a female Oni in that city. So, since Ding Bu has a soul sword, he must be an underling of Kishin Douji's men! Female Onis are always married to Kishin Douji. That must be it! They are Kishin Douji's men!'
Ling Tianlong's hatred toward Kishin Douji was ignited. Because of his grudge and anger, he connected Wei Yuan's existence with Kishin Douji, blaming them for his loss.
After concluding his theory in his mind, Ling Tianlong's thoughts were cleared, and he could finally remember what he had forgotten.
Only then, he sensed something amiss. Several name tokens in his spatial ring suddenly shattered.
Ling Tianlong remembered that he had asked his friends and elders to gather south of Siren City. In his plan, he should have distracted the local cultivators while everyone, whose clones had been defeated, would have retreated when he sent a signal.
However, Ling Tianlong was defeated, and he forgot to send the retreating signal to his men!
Furthermore, he remembered that two dangerous beastwomen had been rushing toward the group!
”SHIT!!”
Ling Tianlong kicked the ground and rushed to the place, where he had asked his people to hide and standby for order.
…
Several minutes later, Ling Tianlong reached the rendezvous site.
Torn corpses with bite marks, militated dead bodies, pink petals, dark blood, and wet pieces of clothes with a familiar Plum Flower embroider were everywhere.
All their spatial rings and weapons were gone.
With a dark face, Ling Tianlong blankly stared at the remains of his colleagues, who had died because of his miscalculation.
”Because of Ding Bu. Because of Kishin Douji… Siren City!!”
Ling Tianlong bit his lower lips. His upper teeth dug into his flesh while his trembling hands clenched so hard that his fingernails stabbed into his palms.
He shed no tear. Ling Tianlong only knew anger.
BOOM
Something inside his dantian was unsealed. His Essence was boiled and became as red as his blood.
