Chapter 2001: Ling Xiao’s Enemy

"Who will his opponent be…"

Xiao Fan murmured, his expression solemn.

In the current Secret Realm Star Domain, who could pose a threat to the current Ling Xiao?!

Xiao Fan could be considered a threat, and then there were Xiao Qing and Xiao Li.

But there was no enmity between them.

Moreover, Xiao Fan didn't sense any killing intent from Ling Xiao.

This proved that Ling Xiao was guarding against someone else.

Then who was the person he was guarding against?!

Who would make the current Ling Xiao disregard an unstable Foundation just to forcibly increase his strength?!

Xiao Fan was astonished…

And while Xiao Fan was wondering, Ling Xiao's aura rose once more, leaving him only half a step away from the Peak of the Ninth Stage of the Liandao Realm.

"I can't increase it anymore," Ling Xiao whispered.

He had to stabilize his Realm.

If he continued to raise his Realm under these circumstances, it would cause his Foundation to become unstable, leading to a hollow cultivation level later on, which would have a massive impact.

Ling Xiao's aura gradually became restrained, withdrawing all of his sharp edge.

Even so… the nearby onlookers were still shocked beyond measure.

Because Ling Xiao was too strong!

Late Stage of the Ninth Stage of the Liandao Realm…

In the current Secret Realm Star Domain, who could possibly be his match?

After restraining his aura, Ling Xiao gazed into the distance at the starry sky, a curve forming at the corner of his mouth.

"Disciples of Ziwei Pavilion, hear my command!" Ling Xiao shouted.

"Present!"

"Present!"

"…"

The many Ziwei Pavilion Disciples shouted in unison, each one incredibly respectful; their eyes were filled with adoration as they looked at Ling Xiao!

"Follow me to kill Huian…" Ling Xiao spoke indifferently, his overbearing aura revealing itself.

"What?!"

"Kill Huian?!"

"The Little Ancestor of Ziyun Temple, Huian?!"

"What's going on?!"

"…"

Countless people nearby were shocked, unable to believe that what they had just heard was real.

Ling Xiao of Ziwei Pavilion wanted to kill Huian?!

Even if the two sides had a grievance, couldn't you be a bit more low-key?!

Why say it so openly and honestly?!

Everyone was stunned.

Xiao Fan let out a breath: "As I thought…"

Xiao Fan had just realized that Ling Xiao was preparing for battle.

He just hadn't expected the target would be Huian.

Why did he want to kill Huian?!

Xiao Fan was puzzled… and speaking of which, the direction Ling Xiao had been gazing in earlier was now understandable.

It must be the direction where Huian was located.

"It's not far…"

Ling Xiao smiled faintly and waved his right hand, causing a spatial rift to appear in the Void Realm.

He had already reached the Liandao Realm, and the Ninth Stage at that; tearing through the Void Realm was an easy task for him.

Ling Xiao stepped into the spatial rift, and the Disciples of Ziwei Pavilion all followed suit…

The people nearby were shocked… and that was it?!

No… that's not right, this should be called just the beginning.

Ling Xiao killing Huian would definitely be a massive battle.

But everyone was also curious, did Huian have any special abilities?!

Ling Xiao was now at the Ninth Stage of the Liandao Realm; if he wanted to kill Huian, how could the latter fight back?!

Xiao Fan exhaled and looked at the void rift. In the next moment, his figure shifted, intending to use the spatial tunnel Ling Xiao had torn open to leave.

"What?!"

"You!!"

"How bold!"

"…"

Many Ziwei Pavilion Disciples were furious, wanting to take action against Xiao Fan.

But it was useless even with their numbers; Xiao Fan's aura erupted, and with his strength alone, he suppressed these Ziwei Pavilion Disciples.

He was about to step inside.

However, a terrifying purple haze radiated from within the tunnel.

"Hmm?"

Xiao Fan frowned and threw a punch with his right hand to counter the purple haze.

"Brother Xiao, there is no enmity between us… I hope you do not interfere in this matter." Ling Xiao's voice came from the spatial rift, and in the next moment, the rift vanished.

Many Ziwei Pavilion Disciples were dumbfounded; half of them hadn't even entered yet.

Xiao Fan let out a breath as the purple haze he had been fighting dissipated.

This Ling Xiao was indeed not simple.

The crowd was stunned…

Xiao Fan glanced at the Geniuses and Prodigies from the Witch God Clan, Weiyang Clan, and Bright Realm.

Being stared at by Xiao Fan, these Geniuses and Prodigies felt chills down their spines and prepared themselves to fight.

"Consider yourselves lucky," Xiao Fan said coldly.

In the next moment, Xiao Fan arrived before Xiao Li, Xiao Qing, and the others.

"Dad, what about us?" Xiao Qing asked, eager for action.

Xiao Li didn't say anything, but his entire body was bursting with Battle Intent.

Xiao Fan exhaled: "Let's go and have a look…"

He had a good relationship with Huian and considered him a friend. Since Ling Xiao wanted to kill Huian, Xiao Fan had to go and help no matter what.

"Get into the spirit beast bracelet," Xiao Fan said as he looked at Yu Qiongyao and Lin Ling. "The upcoming battle will be very dangerous; you won't be able to protect yourselves outside."

If Xiao Fan really ended up fighting Ling Xiao, the battle would definitely be tragic, and he couldn't ensure the two women's safety.

"This… alright then."

The two women nodded in agreement and were taken into the spirit beast bracelet by Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan, Xiao Qing, and Xiao Li set off, heading in the direction Ling Xiao had looked earlier.

"What should we do?!"

"Chase after them… Senior Brother Ling Xiao must be in that direction!"

"Go!"

"…"

Many Ziwei Pavilion Disciples also rushed off in the direction Xiao Fan had fled.

But their speed was far inferior to Xiao Fan's.

After Xiao Fan and the others left…

The Prodigies from the Bright Realm, Witch God Clan, and Weiyang Clan—the factions hostile to Xiao Fan—exchanged glances.

"Should we hide?!"

"The Terror is too powerful; we are no match for him!"

"No… now might be our chance!"

"…"

The Prodigies from these two sides had a brief discussion, and finally, with killing intent fully revealed, they also headed in the direction Xiao Fan had left.
