Ling Xiao actually declared that if the Water Temple dared to provoke him again, he would destroy it.

These words made everyone feel that he was too arrogant.

And quite powerful.

However, this person, arrogant as he is, always has his reasons for arrogance; the things he spoke of seem to have become reality, one by one.

Whether it's due to the hard fate of the Water Temple or Ling Xiao's own resilience, perhaps there will be a good show to watch on the White Tiger Continent in the future.

Tian Hai Mo, the Dragon Crown Prince, and others turned and left.

The Dragon Phoenix Saint and the martial artists from Dragon and Phoenix Mountain were arranged by Feng Yingshan to rest within the Imperial City, preparing to set off back to the White Tiger Continent tomorrow.

As for the two emissaries from the Tianhai Empire, they hurriedly bid farewell, saying they urgently needed to report the matter of Killing Dragon Forest to their superiors, though what they were really planning in their hearts, only they knew.

"Brother Mo Yu, Brother Zhu Shao Cong, if you don't mind, why not go back to Forest Sea City with us? Staying here now is too dangerous."

Mo Yu and Zhu Shao Cong weren't severely injured; after all, they were just repelled by Tian Hai Mo and the Dragon Crown Prince, not gravely wounded.

After Ling Xiao gave them healing medicine, they were almost completely recovered.

"No, we need to hurry back; Changle Immortal Island and Celestial Canopy Immortal Island are both in crisis right now. If not for the selection of the White Tiger Summit, we wouldn't have appeared here."

The two declined Ling Xiao's offer.

"Actually, you might not know, but I've already sent people to Celestial Canopy Immortal Island and Changle Immortal Island, ensuring no harm will come to the islands."

Ling Xiao laughed and said, "After all, it was Sister Moon and the Wine Demon Sword senior who I sent out."

"Really?"

Mo Yu and Zhu Shao Cong were suddenly overjoyed.

"So, why don't you come back to Forest Sea City with me for a while to rest? After things here are settled, I'll go with you to see the situation on the islands."

Ling Xiao said with a smile.

"No words can truly express our gratitude!"

The two exchanged a glance, seeing the shock and excitement in each other's eyes.

Ling Xiao really is as rumored, repaying a drop of kindness with a spring.

Then, everyone left together.

Seeing Ling Xiao leave,

the two emissaries from the Tianhai Empire finally breathed a sigh of relief.

They were really afraid that Ling Xiao, with his temperament, would silence them.

"Lord Envoy, that Ling Xiao killed the people we brought and even killed a Vice Envoy; are we just going to leave like this?"

The green-robed Vice Envoy was somewhat relieved yet somewhat displeased.

Feeling humiliated by Ling Xiao, but dare not express anger.

"Don't worry, when have we ever suffered a loss? Daring to kill people from our Tianhai Empire, then Ling Xiao will soon become an enemy of all the martial artists of the Tianhai Empire. How the reports are written is up to us!"

The red-robed Envoy sneered and said, "As soon as Ling Xiao steps foot on the White Tiger Continent, he will undoubtedly face threats of death. Let that boy be arrogant; we don't need to act. He will find survival impossible, and death a luxury!"

"Hahaha, the Lord Envoy is indeed powerful, so should we leave the city now?"

The Vice Envoy asked.

"There's no rush; first, let's meet with the people from the Water Temple. The Water Temple lost so many elite people this time; they certainly hold a grudge against Ling Xiao. Joining forces to kill Ling Xiao will be easier."

The red-robed Envoy replied.

Immediately, the two crossed through Killing Dragon Forest and pursued the Water Temple's team.

After a while, the two suddenly stopped.

"Do you feel like we are being followed?"

The red-robed Envoy's face turned pale, cold sweat already appearing on his forehead.

"No way, Lord Envoy, Ling Xiao has already returned to Forest Sea City with his men; he can't possibly be coming after us. Are you overthinking it?"

The Vice Envoy's cultivation level was not as high as the red-robed Envoy's, so he didn't sense anything amiss.

However, the red-robed Envoy's expression remained tense, feeling clearly targeted by something.

Yet when he released his soul power to search, he found nothing.

"Let's go! We won't look for the Water Temple's people; we'll go directly to the Imperial Palace of the Phoenix God Empire!"

The red-robed Envoy suddenly changed his mind.

Though he didn't find any trace of people, he still felt pursued by something.

To ensure safety, seeking refuge in the palace was evidently the best choice.

"Yes!"

The green-robed Vice Envoy nodded upon hearing this.

Then the two soared into the sky, quickening their pace like two birds flying freely.

No matter how they increased their speed, the red-robed Envoy still felt chills running down his spine, obviously being watched by something.

This sensation made him very uncomfortable.

Seeing they had left Killing Dragon Forest and arrived at a busy street, with more people around, the red-robed Envoy gradually calmed down.

The stalker shouldn't dare to act freely on the street, as there were patrolling soldiers everywhere.

"Come here!"

The red-robed Envoy ordered the City Patrol Guard from the Phoenix God Empire to his side.

The City Patrol Guards were very obedient, as they recognized the emissaries from the Tianhai Empire.

Back then, when the Emissaries insulted respectable women in the Imperial Capital, they didn't stop them; instead, they guarded for them.

Later, when that woman committed suicide, they also handled her body.

In the eyes of these City Patrol Guards of the Phoenix God Empire, the emissaries from the Tianhai Empire were like gods, absolutely unopposable.

They were even willing to abandon their conscience for these people.

Some even offered their underage daughters to the emissaries for entertainment.

Without feeling shame or sorrow for it, instead eagerly considering when they themselves might prosper.

"What are your orders, Emissary?"

The City Patrol Guard Captain, the one who offered his daughter, asked respectfully.

"Someone is trying to harm me; find them for me!"

The red-robed Envoy commanded.

"Understood! Listen up, search every corner nearby and see who dares to disrespect the Emissary!"

The City Patrol Guard Captain seemed truly like a dog, immediately following orders without considering whether what they were doing might affect the normal lives of the citizens.

"You're really a good dog!"

A cold voice wafted from the darkness.

It turned out to be a shadowy ghost with only a pair of purple eyes.

"Ghost!"

The red-robed Envoy was surprised to see the strange entity in front of him; such a spirit shouldn't appear on the Divine Phoenix Continent, as it ought to only appear on the Hell Continent.

No, wait!

Why does that tone sound like Ling Xiao?

The red-robed Envoy was shocked, staring at the ghostly entity, puzzled why he would have such a thought.

"Are you Ling Xiao?"

The red-robed Envoy asked.

Of course, the ghost would not respond.

But the red-robed Envoy's guess was indeed correct.

This ghost was actually controlled by Ling Xiao.

It originated from the God Tomb.

Like the Skeleton General, it was a spirit from another space.

The difference being, the Skeleton General had strong combat prowess, while this ghost had no fighting ability whatsoever.

It was meant for tracking and gathering intelligence.
