Chapter 14 Killing
Phew!
The sword light brushed past Feng Chong's palm, and pierced into Feng Chong's body as his eyes widened.
Blood spurted out as the sword pierced Feng Chong's body, leaving a bloody hole in his body.
"He actually killed me back!"
Several deacons stood up almost at the same time, their expressions filled with shock.
In just the blink of an eye, Feng Chong's advantage was gone and he was killed by Ling Chen's sword.
"That sword strike just now was so amazing, it was a stroke of genius, a sword from the sky." A deacon's face was full of admiration.
"Yes, Feng Chong had no power to defend himself against this sword and lost his life." Another deacon also sighed.
The black market leader looked at the arena with a slightly condensed expression, "Feng Chong is not , it seems that Ling Chen showed mercy just now."
At this moment, on the stage, Ling Chen had already put his sword back into its scabbard. He walked up to Feng Chong and glanced at him, "I won't kill you today. Go back and tell Yun Tianhe that I will kill him in the sect's fighting arena in a month."
After saying that, Ling Chen turned around and prepared to walk off the stage.
"You rubbish, die!"
Feng Chong's eyes were filled with resentment, and he suddenly waved his sleeves, shooting a poisonous blade at Ling Chen's back.
Ding!
Ling Chen didn't even bother to look at it, he just swung his sword back and knocked the poisonous blade backwards. The poisonous blade reflected back and hit Feng Chong's forehead.
This time, Ling Chen showed no mercy. He had already given one chance and he would not give it a second time.
The audience below the stage was already boiling with excitement.
A strong man with ten consecutive victories!
Just the title made people feel excited, and they had all seen Ling Chen's strength. There was no water in these ten consecutive victories. Every battle was thrilling, especially the last few games, and the opponents were all heavyweights.
The sounds of cheers and shouts came like a tide, one wave after another.
The strong have always been respected and admired.
After the life-and-death battle.
"Young Master Ling, this is your trophy."
The steward of the fighting arena handed a wooden box to Ling Chen. When he opened the box, there was a wine jar inside. Ling Chen opened the lid of the jar, and suddenly, a strong medicinal fragrance came to his face, refreshing his heart.
This is Peiyuan Lingye, a good thing used to consolidate the foundation and improve martial arts skills.
Only after ten consecutive victories can one obtain the Nourishing Spiritual Liquid. This spiritual liquid requires a lot of precious medicinal materials and is very valuable, so Ling Chen chose to challenge ten consecutive victories.
Of course, this is one reason. Another reason is that Ling Chen wants to use this underground fighting arena to hone his practical combat experience and seek opportunities for breakthroughs.
The greater the risk, the greater the reward.
In addition, the black market steward also handed Ling Chen a silver token with the words "Ten Consecutive Victories" clearly engraved on it. On the back of the token was a pattern of two tigers fighting each other, which was the symbol of the underground fighting arena.
Ling Chen checked it carefully, nodded after confirming that it was correct, and prepared to leave.
"Young man, please wait a moment." The steward stopped Ling Chen.
"Anything else?" Ling Chen narrowed his eyes slightly.
The underground fighting arena is affiliated with the black market, and the black market is an extremely powerful force in the entire Five Nations, with a good reputation. Although Ling Chen is not worried that the underground fighting arena will be disadvantageous to him because of a jar of nourishing spirit liquid, he still has to be vigilant and guard against it.
"It's like this, the leader of our Wucheng black market wants to meet you. I wonder if you are interested?" said the deacon.
"The black market leader wants to see me?" Ling Chen's expression changed, and he nodded immediately, "No problem."
Just as the response was given, a middle-aged man in a golden robe slowly walked in, surrounded by several deacons.
“Haha, you are worthy of being the talented young man of Shenyi Sect. Your performance today is really a feast for the eyes for me, Qin.” The middle-aged man in the golden robe laughed heartily.
Ling Chen's pupils shrank, and he immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Senior Qin Shan!"
Qin Shan, the black market leader of Wucheng, was a well-known figure in the entire Wind Country, a top master at the Grandmaster level. Such a person would be a very high-ranking elder in the Divine Will Sect, so it was only right for Ling Chen to show some respect.
"You go down first." Qin Shan waved to the deacons, who immediately bowed and left.
"I wonder what important matter the senior has for finding me?"
Ling Chen still didn't know whether the black market leader was a friend or foe, but he thought that he was unlikely to be an enemy. Otherwise, today on the fighting stage, the other party could have done something and sent out stronger warriors or even assassins to take his life.
"It's nothing important, I just want to talk to you about your father." Qin Shan said with a smile, but there seemed to be another meaning in that smile.
"My father?"
Ling Chen was stunned for a moment, then a gleam of light appeared in his eyes, "Senior Qin Shan, do you know anything about my father?"
He has never believed that Ling Tianyu would be killed by someone, but more than two months have passed and there is still no news from him. If nothing has happened, why hasn't he shown up yet?
"I was just about to ask you."
Qin Shan spread his hands, looking somewhat helpless. "I have some friendship with your father. You can see a lot of his influence in me. You are extremely smart and a martial arts genius. I really can't believe that he died so easily."
"I don't know anything about this matter. It is widely rumored in the martial arts world that my mother Liu Xiling murdered my father and colluded with the Demon Sect and the Holy Witch Cult, which led to the great changes in the Shenyi Sect. We must find my mother to find out the truth of this matter."
Ling Chen doesn't believe the rumors in the martial arts world. What you hear is not as good as what you see. He doesn't know whether his mother is a suspect, but Yun Tianhe is definitely a suspect.
"If she wasn't your mother, then why did she go back to the Holy Witch Cult? Moreover, she became the Holy Maiden of the Holy Witch Cult again. It's hard not to believe this. There are too many doubts about this matter, and I'm afraid the whole story is very complicated."
Qin Shan frowned, then waved his hand, "Forget it, let's not talk about these unfounded things. I heard that in a month, you will have a life-and-death duel with Yun Tianhe, one of the four genius disciples of Shenyi Sect. Are you confident in this battle?"
“I’m not completely sure. I don’t know how strong Yun Tianhe is now, and I’m worried that even if I defeat Yun Tianhe on stage, I’m afraid I’ll still be the loser in the end.”
Ling Chen expressed his concerns. He was worried about the elders of Shenyi Sect. It was estimated that some of these people were connected to Yun Tianhe. Even if he defeated Yun Tianhe, he might not be able to kill him. Instead, he might be harmed by those elders.
"Don't worry about that. I will also go to Shenyi Gate to watch the battle one day. If anyone dares to use any tricks, I, Qin, will never agree." Qin Shan's face was slightly condensed, and he said solemnly.
"Then I will thank you on behalf of my father."
Ling Chen immediately bowed his hands to express his gratitude.
He didn't expect that Qin Shan would express his position so easily. It seems that the latter has a good relationship with his father. Qin Shan is the leader of the black market in the Kingdom of Wind and is considered a local lord. He has great weight. With Qin Shan standing on his side, those elders would not dare to act recklessly.
Besides, there is also Master Ziyun, who will not sit idly by .
This way, all worries are gone.
After exchanging a few pleasantries with Qin Shan, Ling Chen was ready to leave.
"You're welcome, go ahead." Qin Shan waved his hand.
Ling Chen looked at Qin Shan deeply, then turned and left.
After Qin Shan left, a steward behind him couldn't help but say, "Chief, Ling Tianyu is already dead. There is no benefit in helping Ling Chen now. The waters of the Divine Will Sect are very deep. Do we really want to intervene?"
"The Divine Will Sect has lost a lot of its strength after what happened last time. There is no need to be too cautious. I am just making my position clear. I won't let the Divine Will Sect regard me as an enemy." Qin Shan waved his hand. "Not to mention that Ling Chen has great potential. My helping him today may be a long-term investment."
"Besides, what if Ling Tianyu is not dead? This means that he also owes us a big favor. Tell me, isn't this a very profitable deal?"
"The leader is wise."
The deacon's eyes lit up and a look of admiration suddenly appeared on his face.
Qin Shan's eyes revealed a meaningful look, "Ling Tianyu's son... Tsk tsk, I want to see if he can be like his father back then, despising geniuses and dominating the martial arts world."
