Chapter 223 - astrologer Extinguished

In the dense forest, a horse galloped quickly, in the direction of astrologer.

After Ding Chunqiu died, Ling Xiao took care of the matters at hand with the fastest speed possible, and then directly left for the hilum. He knew that Ding Chunqiu's death could not be hidden, so it would quickly spread throughout the entire Jianghu.

As Ding Chunqiu's disciple, the disciples of the astrologer would naturally pay attention to his every move and any other news. After knowing that Ding Chunqiu had died, they would definitely choose to leave the hilum and each escape.

After all, if even the Sect Leader was dead, what big waves would the disciples like them have to stir up? And to even kill the disciples of the Sect Leader, they must have powerful martial arts. If they had such a deep hatred towards Ding Chunqiu, they would definitely attack their sect.

Ling Xiao had also considered that the disciples of the astrologer would probably escape after hearing that Ding Chunqiu had died, so he had to hurry to the astrologer to finish everything before they could leave.

After all, the place Ding Chunqiu died at was a small city, and if Xu Zhu wanted to go out to resolve her fate, she would not be able to do so for a while. Furthermore, with the important news of Ding Chunqiu's death, he would not spread it by herself.

With a gallop, Ling Xiao arrived at astrologer at the fastest speed possible.

After getting off the horse, Ling Xiao walked straight towards the gate with his hands behind his back.

When they saw that Ling Xiao had arrived, the two guards immediately became flustered. Previously, they had witnessed the terror of Ling Xiao and had also seen the scene of free and unfettered being ruthlessly abused by Ling Xiao. Thus, they had no intention of stopping him.

However, how could a mere gate defend against Ling Xiao? After activating his true energy, the heavy and sturdy looking gate was smashed into pieces by Ling Xiao's palm and dropped to the ground with a loud crash.

Following this action, the entire astrologer knew immediately that someone had invaded. As the head disciple of the astrologer, free and unfettered was naturally unable to evade and stood in front of the crowd of disciples.

Seeing that the God of Slaughter had come back to this place, free and unfettered's face immediately became unsightly. He deeply knew that had caused trouble outside the Sect Leader, because he told Ding Chunqiu all the details of how Ling Xiao came to snatch the Divine Wood King Cauldron.

I thought that with the Sect Leader coming out, Ling Xiao would definitely die, but I never expected that Ling Xiao was actually still alive, and even had come knocking on my door.

Therefore, there was an extremely abundant space between Ling Xiao and free and unfettered. As long as the two of them were not talking loudly, no one would be able to hear what they were saying.

”Sect Master Ling, long time no see, what wind blew you here today?” free and unfettered looked at Ling Xiao, a nervous yet stiff smile hung on his face, as he did not dare display any disrespect.

Ling Xiao squinted his eyes, then said indifferently: ”free and unfettered, is your Master out yet?”

He was afraid that Ling Xiao would mention Ding Chunqiu, which would also mean that Ding Chunqiu had really found Ling Xiao.

But since Ding Chunqiu had found Ling Xiao, then why would Ling Xiao still appear here?

The answer was already obvious.

”Sect Master Ling, our Sect Leader has indeed gone out, and is currently not in the sect. As for what he is going to do, we are also unsure, I wonder why Sect Master Ling is here, and why are you looking for our Sect Leader?” As free and unfettered spoke, he gulped. It was obvious that he was extremely nervous.
