"Tear~"
The tent was suddenlyliftopen.
"Hey, kid, remember not to walk alone in your next life."
The Bearded Man walked in, his head emitting a purple glow, which turned out to be a Head Soul Bone.
Lin Xiao, who was asleep, noticed a force trying to erode his spirit.
But his spirit had already been tempered through countless Nirvanas! In Lin Xiao's sea of consciousness, golden flames ignited in the Phoenix's eyes, about to extinguish this strange force, but Lin Xiao stopped it.
The power of a spiritual attack is related to the caster's Spiritual Power. If their Spiritual Power is inferior to the target, there is a risk of failure; if the gap between the two is too large, it will cause a backlash.
Lin Xiao didn't understand the purpose of this spiritual erosion.
So he let the Bearded Man try again.
"Huh? Why isn't it controlled yet?"
The Bearded Man, unwilling to believe it, increased his Spiritual Power. Lin Xiao felt the eroding force in his mind becoming stronger and stronger, and roughly figured out the role of his Head Soul Bone.
It turned out to be spiritual manipulation! The question in his heart was immediately resolved.
No wonder this Raging Battle Mercenary Group was registered. As a mercenary group with a business license, it was doing heinous things but was not discovered, and its reputation was excellent! It relied on the Bearded Man's spiritual manipulation of employers to choose to complete tasks, and after the task was submitted and given a good review, the employer was killed! Perhaps, they would wait until the employer left in the eyes of everyone before taking action!
After Lin Xiao understood, he immediately stopped suppressing the Phoenix in his sea of consciousness. The Bearded Man let out a scream, and then golden flames began to burn in his eyes. In a short time, the whole person died of mental exhaustion.
Thanks to the Great Sun Golden Eyes, the Bearded Man not only bore the double backlash of the spiritual attack, but also had his spirit directly impacted by the Solar Fire Energy.
Unexpectedly, this Soul King was solved so easily.
"Not good, something happened!"
"There's something wrong with the sucker!"
The Bearded Man's screams attracted the attention of his companions.
There was a commotion outside, and then a group of people rushed into the tent, only to find that Lin Xiao was gone, and a large hole was revealed in the back of the tent.
"The Bearded Man is dead!"
A rough voice rang out.
"Everyone, spread out!"
The scarred-face captain told everyone to go outside, and anxiously smashed the Bearded Man's head at the first moment, and began to search for the existence of the Soul Bone.
He didn't even care about the smell of cooked meat.
When he found that the Soul Bone was missing, the captain's heart sank, and he roared: "Go after him!"
"Bring that kid back, alive or dead!"
Just after roaring, the captain suddenly saw a glimmer of light, accompanied by the smell of burnt meat.
The light suddenly became extremely dazzling.
Accompanied by a earth-shattering sound, the blazing fire illuminated the entire night! The scarred-face captain, scorched black, staggered out of the tent, rolling frantically on the ground, trying to put out the flames on his body.
Suddenly, he smelled an extremely strong bloody scent.
All around were the corpses of his companions.
He raised his head in terror.
The youth stood quietly, like a statue.
Looking at him, his eyes held not the slightest ripple.
He roared, about to fight to the death.
But a wisp of golden flame flickered in the youth's eyes, causing him to pause for a second, and then the long sword pierced his throat.
Lin Xiao used the Meteorite Iron sword, not Crimson Sky.
Crimson Sky was a sword with aspirations, and it considered the task dirty.
...
"No way, this kid really completed the test within a month? No, half a month!"
Dugu Bo's face was full of shock: "If I hadn't watched him grow up, I would have really thought he was some Killing Star that popped out of nowhere! He dealt with a Wolf Bandit Mercenary Group as easily as eating and drinking, and that was a Wolf Bandit Mercenary Group with a Soul Emperor sitting in charge!"
"Also, isn't this Lin Xiao kid's first time killing people? Not even vomiting, no physical discomfort, no excited trembling? Between him and me, who exactly is the Old Poisonous Thing!"
Ye Qingxian sighed and said, "The scariest thing is that his mind has been very clear, his thinking very meticulous. If it weren't to confirm that this was indeed the Wolf Bandit Mercenary Group, he wouldn't even have needed to put in so much effort."
Dugu Bo and Ye Qingxian had personally witnessed the massacre yesterday.
Indeed, it was a massacre.
Lin Xiao had already started taking action as early as when he discovered that the Berserk Blood Mercenary Group was likely the Wolf Bandit Mercenary Group. When he went out for a drink, he quietly administered Poison.
He used at least ten-thousand-year-old high-grade Poisonous Herbs.
Their effect was to hinder the operation of Soul Power, and when Soul Power was used suddenly at high intensity, the toxins would quickly take effect.
After dealing with the Bearded Man, he very simply and neatly cut open the other party's head, took out the Head Soul Bone, and stuffed a ball of Two-Colored Fire Lotus into his stomach, controlling the temperature of the Fire Phoenix to prevent it from detonating.
After the leader went in, it detonated, severely injuring the leader.
Afterward, Lin Xiao took the initiative to meet the other mercenary group members who had been poisoned without realizing it and were thinking of catching him, and slaughtered them one by one.
The sword light flickered, each strike fatal, extremely ruthless!
Then, he didn't give the leader a chance to fight to the death, taking advantage of his illness to take his life, neatly ending the battle, and then began to loot the corpses.
This, are you sure he's just a 13-year-old boy?
Dugu Bo and Ye Qingxian, who had been hiding in the dark, were dumbfounded!
Dugu Bo said dryly:
"I originally just wanted to let him see blood, thinking that this kid had only killed Soul Beasts and hadn't chopped people before, so as to prevent him from being soft-hearted in the future and harming himself instead."
Ye Qingxian smiled wryly: "I just wanted him to suffer a little, to know the dangers of this outside Soul Master World, that bad people often appear around you in the image of good people, and that what you see is not necessarily the truth."
Both of them wanted to give Lin Xiao a lesson.
But right now, Lin Xiao was giving them a good lesson.
Dugu Bo actually said with some unease:
"Could this kid be a natural Killing Star? I feel like he's even more wicked than me! How can someone be so skilled the first time they kill someone, not even batting an eyelid, hacking from beginning to end!"
Ye Qingxian was also a bit conflicted now.
"I don't understand either. I was even thinking of waiting for him to suffer a loss, and then comforting him properly. How come his mind is even more shrewd than mine, just like an old hand!"
Both of them were silent.
In the end, they decided to directly interrogate the person involved! ...
"Ah? Is it not okay to perform too well?"
Lin Xiao said as a matter of course, "Since I've confirmed that they are the Wolf Bandit Mercenary Group, of course I'd start taking action early. What's the point of reasoning with enemies who want your life? Poisonous Herb, Flame Burst, taking advantage of their situation, is there any need to hesitate?"
"As for how I saw through them, hey, just assume I've read a lot of similar biographical novels. Even if I haven't eaten pork, I've seen pigs run, right?"
"Besides, it's also related to them seeing that I'm young and underestimating me."
Dugu Bo said fiercely, "Is that what I'm asking you about, old man?"
"Speak!"
"Why didn't your hand shake the first time you killed someone?"
