Chapter 249: Killing Intent Permeates
ping.Next, eighteen hundred sky lanterns slowly rose into the starry sky, each lantern bearing a line of text on its surface."Wow! I haven't seen this many sky lanterns in ages!""Yeah! That's so roman...... Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Ma Qing, our guest has arrived. Please invite them in!" A beautiful woman's voice came out.
"Yes, Miss!" The man said, bowing to Ling Hao. "I apologize, sir, please come in!"
"Hm!" Ling Hao smiled faintly and walked in.
Looking out, there was a pavilion in the garden where two young people were sparring with swords.
Underneath the gazebo, a group of seven or eight young people sat around a long table, enjoying food and watching the performance on the gazebo.
Besides these people, on the other side of the pavilion, two elderly gentlemen were seated at a stone table, playing chess.
The two people were the masters of those two auras of War Venerable realm.
"Excuse me, sir. The person below just now was rude, please forgive him!" A woman sitting at the head of a long table stood up and walked towards Ling Hao.
The woman was in her twenties or thirties, with beautiful features, a graceful figure, and an elegant demeanor. She surpassed even Pan Yijie, the eldest Miss from the Pan family, in beauty.
Ling Hao's eyes swept over the woman, his gaze narrowing slightly. Her cultivation was not weak, already reaching the strength of a nascent warrior goddess.
"Hehe, it's nothing. I was being abrupt." Ling Hao smiled faintly.
"This humble servant, Xue Biqian, doesn't know your esteemed name." The woman was indeed the eldest daughter of the Xue family.
As he spoke, he glanced up and down at Ling Hao, a look of surprise on his face.
A woman's sixth sense told her that the person before her was definitely a martial artist, but she couldn't sense the other person's cultivation level at all.
And Ling Hao's kingly aura somehow put her under immense pressure.
"So it's Miss Xue!" Ling Hao smiled again. "My name is Ling!"
As he spoke, he noticed that in addition to Xue Biqian, the other men and women were looking at him with a strange glint in their eyes, and a faint murderous intent emanating from them.
Including the two elderly men, although they didn't look at him, from the moment he entered the garden, a subtle and imperceptible change occurred in their aura.
That's kind of interesting!
"Greetings, Shao Ling!" Xue Biqian smiled. "Several of my friends are currently sparring. If you're interested, perhaps you'd like to watch"
"Good!" Ling Hao smiled again.
"Xiao Qian, how can you let just any Tom, Dick, and Harry in Don't disturb our elegant mood!" A young master got up and walked over.
"Young Master Yun, don't speak like that. Guests are our honored visitors, let's make some friends." Xue Biqian spoke after slightly furrowing her brows.
"We are all martial cultivators here, what qualifications does this little white face have to be friends with us!" The young master gave Ling Hao a disdainful glance.
Bang!
Before his words even left his mouth, he was thrown out directly and landed on the ground, rolling several times before coming to a stop. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Huh!" Everyone turned to look, including the two elders who also couldn't help but show a hint of anger on their faces.
"Damn you, you dare to sneak attack me I'll kill you!" The young master roared after getting up from the ground, raising his hand and attacking Ling Hao.
The imposing aura on his body instantly surged, reaching the peak of a Warlord's cultivation.
"Young Master Yun, stop!" Xue Biqian shouted, simultaneously raising her hand to deflect his attack.
"Xiao Qian, why are you stopping me!" the young master shouted angrily.
"Yun Shao, you were wrong first in this matter. You should apologize to Ling Shao!" Xue Biqian spoke in a low voice.
"Hmph! What qualifications does that lowly wretch have for me to apologize to him!" The young master glared coldly at Ling Hao.
Bang!
Before he could finish speaking, he was flung out again. This time his injuries were worse; at least two or three ribs were broken, and he spat a mouthful of blood.
"You keep saying that other people are lowly, I want to hear what kind of person you are" Ling Hao spoke in a deep voice.
"Young Master Ling, Young Master Yun are both from prominent families in the capital. I beg you, Young Master Ling, for Biqian's sake, please be magnanimous!" Xue Biqian revealed their identities.
"Hmph, another privileged person" Ling Hao sneered with a cold voice: "Kneel down!"
"You," the young master spat out a single word, his mouth spewing forth a torrent of blood.
"You've gone too far. You've already hurt Yun Shao like this, what else do you want to do" Another young master stood up.
"That's right, don't think you can just run amok because you have some mediocre kung fu!" Another woman chimed in.
A glint of ferocity flashed in the eyes of others, and they surrounded him, including the two people from the pavilion who also came down.
"Everyone, don't be impulsive. Ling Shao didn't intentionally mean to hurt Yun Shao." Xue Biqian took a deep breath and then spoke to the group of people.
"Xiao Qian, Yun Shao was injured like this by someone at your Xue family, how can you still speak up for him!" The woman looked at Xue Biqian and spoke coldly.
"Yan Jie, Shao Ling..." Xue Biqian took another deep breath.
"Alright, Xiaoqian, you don't have to worry about this. We must make him understand what it means to know his place today!" the woman interrupted her.
"Is your play over" Ling Hao looked at the group of people opposite him with a faint smile: "Since you want to kill me, why bother going through so much trouble Just do it directly, wouldn't that be easier"
"What do you mean" Xue Biqian looked confused.
"Miss Xue, your friends came tonight to kill me on purpose!" Ling Hao smiled again.
"Huh" Xue Biqian exclaimed in surprise, then paused slightly. "Young Master Ling, is there some misunderstanding here"
"Xiao Qian, you get out of here, this has nothing to do with you!" The woman spoke again.
"A bunch of idiots!" Just then, the judge's voice rang out: "I'll give you one minute. If you don't scram, you're dead!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she came to Ling Hao's side and whispered, "Big brother, there are still many people hiding in this manor!"
"Hmm!" Ling Hao pondered for a moment before continuing, "Let's go check on Shen Le first!"
This person has already revealed murderous intent, Shen Le's side is probably in danger too, he worries that Xuan Pang can't handle it alone.
"Want to leave Not so easy!" the woman snorted coldly, her wrist flipping as a sword, like a serpent's tongue, shot towards Ling Hao.
Others simultaneously charged, each wielding their swords and blades. The killing intent emanating from them intensified.
"You're courting death!" The judge pulled out his cold, moon-shaped blade from his waist, drawing several icy arcs as he slashed.
Hmph! Hmph!
These men and women, at their highest cultivation level, were only at the early stage of War God. Naturally, they couldn't withstand the Judge's blade techniques. After the cold light passed, two men immediately fell to the ground, twitching a few times before going still.
"Be presumptuous no more!" At this time, one of the two elders said in a deep voice.
Next, with a flick of the wrist, a line of chess pieces flew towards the judge like raindrops, creating a faint whistling sound.hand and striking out with a palm strike that whipped up a piercing whistle."Go!" Lu Yue said in a low voice, a blade of light meeting him head-on.Tap! Tap! Tap!After the two forces collided, a blade...
