Chapter 609

Blood Figure
Translated by Yan of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

A white figure stood reflected against the light in the entrance of the mansion. Even though the expert from the Black Spider couldn’t make out what the newcomer looked like clearly, he could sense the familiar aura being exuded, and the expert opened his eyes wide in disbelief.

This person wasn’t anyone else except the man in the black robe who had fought with Ling Xiao at the bottom of the ocean in Dong City over the White Tiger’s palace. Afterwards, he had fled when he was injured by Ling Xiao.

Even though he was also a Sacred Realm expert who was even stronger than the Mage Association’s experts, because he was wounded by Ling Xiao, it had caused his strength to decrease, so he had tolerated these major powers. Or else someone with the Black Spider’s bandit-like attitude definitely wouldn’t have agreed to split the magic herbs evenly with the Mage Association and other major powers.

When he had entered the Peach Blossom Ruins, he clearly hadn’t seen Ling Xiao or You XiaoMo. He presumed that they had probably been chased by Xia Yin to some other place, and he hadn’t expected to see him here. He even more so hadn’t expected him to be the one who came out to help the Mage Association, and in a moment of oversight, he was fooled.

It was the so-called “hitting them when they were down.”

Ling Xiao obviously wasn’t here to reminisce about the olden days. Once he intercepted him, he acted immediately, and within a few blows he caused the expert to spew blood endlessly, unable to defend himself. His injury, which still hadn’t healed completely from two or three months ago, became even more serious. Even if he was a Divine Realm expert, he wouldn’t be able to defeat him.

The other Black Spider members couldn’t even take care of themselves, let alone come and save him. Furthermore, in their eyes, their companions were people that they could leave behind or sell out at any time.

“Wait a moment, as long as you don’t kill me, I can tell you a big secret. It concerns that person.”

Ling Xiao raised his hand, and a ball of fire the size of a fist appeared with a crackle in his hand. Purple and red flames intertwined together, spinning like a whirlwind.

The person in black definitely didn’t want to die here, and he hastily told him to stop, that he still knew quite a few secrets that he was certain Ling Xiao would be quite interested in.

Ling Xiao’s movements paused, and he looked at him with an expression that seemed to be smiling but not at the same time. “That person?”

The person in black saw him wavering, and joy leaped in his heart. He said quickly, “Correct, that person is your biggest enemy. I imagine that you would be very interested in knowing more.”

“Then why don’t you talk about it a little? If it has value, I can consider letting you go.” Ling Xiao extinguished the ball of fire in his hand, his figure still standing in the entrance, not moving a single step, gaze locked on the Black Spider expert’s body. Even if the person in black wanted to play tricks on him, he still wouldn’t be able to escape.

The black-robed person covered his chest with his hand as he stood up, his face going pale, his footsteps a little uneven. When he smiled, he revealed a mouth full of bloody teeth. “That person… right now… he is… ah!”

He hadn’t finished talking yet when his body suddenly exploded, leaving behind a bloody hole where his heart was. The black-robed person opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he had already fallen down, unmoving.
