Chapter 4: A Life for a Life

  Ling Wusuo flashed out in pursuit, his extremely fast speed leaving behind a residual shadow on the spot, and in just a few breaths, he was about to catch up.

  After passing through a stone gate, Ling Yun's crazy speed remained the same, it was with a speed that could destroy dry wood, fleeing for her life, and a fierce aura closely followed behind her, making her spine numb. Immediately after, came Ling Wu Shuang's palm wind, sweeping in like a tide.

  "Hmmph!"

  Her footsteps came to an abrupt halt, and Lingyun's head jerked back as she spat out a mouthful of blood. She was slapped by a palm and sent crashing to the ground, her slender body curled up and trembling. Her lips quivering with rage, she threatened: "Ling Wusuo, you dare to move me? My father will never let you off, he'll definitely tear you limb from limb!"

  Ling Wushuang sneered, not moving in the slightest, "How would you know if you don't try?"

  Soaring through the air with a majestic leap, bowing his waist and bending his knees, he crashes down towards the people on the ground with the force of Mount Tai pressing down.

  Palms, elbows, feet, legs, knees, every part of the body can become Ling Wu's weapon.

  Lingyun covered her mouth with her hand, feeling somewhat desperate as she closed her eyes. Her lips trembled - she was actually going to die at the hands of Ling Wusuo, that useless thing. She felt so unwilling, so resentful.

  "How dare you!"

  In the blink of an eye, a loud roar was accompanied by a thick breath, followed closely by a yellow mysterious energy that shot towards Ling Wusuo in mid-air.

  Light yellow Xuan Qi, strong heavenly Xuan.

  Ling Wushuang's eyebrows furrowed, and her reaction was extremely swift. Her legs crossed and spun rapidly in mid-air, her entire body narrowly avoiding the attack. She floated down gently, a zhang away.

  "Dad" Lingyun sadly watched as a middle-aged man rushed over, tears streaming down his face.

  She wants Ling Wu Shuang dead, and she wants it now!

  The newcomer was Ling Qingtian's second son, Ling Cang, a first-class Tianxuan strongman, who was also the father of Ling Yunxi.

  "Alas, how could this be?" Without time to attend to anything else, Ling Cang hastily stepped forward to help up Ling Yun Xi, quickly examining the injuries on her body. After seeing clearly, his eyes suddenly filled with tears and he roared in anger: "Who dares to be so presumptuous in my Ling family! Injuring my daughter, Ling Cang!"

  Anyone who dares to hurt his daughter will have to pay the price.

  He rushed over in a flurry, his hair standing on end with rage, and bellowed, "You reckless little brat! How dare you injure my son to such an extent! Today, if I don't chop you into a million pieces, I'm not...!"

  But then, after a closer look at the person, his eyes widened in shock and he exclaimed: "Ling Wusuo?!"

  It's actually Ling Wushuang. Has he gone blind? The person who attacked Yunxi is actually the shame of the Ling family, that useless trash with no spiritual power.

  This is impossible, how can this be?

  Ling Wushuang walked forward, meeting Ling Cang's gaze, and slowly replied, "Second Uncle is indeed getting more energetic with age, this voice still has a full and rich tone."

  After finishing speaking, her eyes scanned around again and stopped at his bright red face, she smiled and said: "Your complexion is not bad either."

  Several young men of the Ling family heard the noise and rushed over. Upon hearing these words and seeing this situation, they suddenly raised an eyebrow: was this praise or ridicule?

  He's 'old but vigorous' and full of energy, looking like he's just in his thirties, right in the prime of life. Moreover, with a flushed face and a radiant complexion, his health is indeed not bad at all. This is truly undeniable, leaving no room for argument.

  Ling Cang's face turned red with rage, his eyes bulging out of their sockets. His voice was low and menacing as he growled: "Ling Wushuang, don't think that just because you have the master's protection, you can do whatever you want. If you don't give me a satisfactory explanation today, I'll make sure you leave this courtyard horizontally."

  "You want to explain?" Ling Wu Shuang coldly snorted, his sleeve fluttering as he took a step forward. His eyes instantly turned icy, "You pushed me into the Cold Pool, you destroyed my entire body of Xuanli, you deceived me into the Imperial Hunting Grounds, and I almost lost my life. Shouldn't all these things be explained to me?"

  The last sentence was uttered in a cold tone.

  Some things that Ling Wushuang couldn't understand in the past didn't mean she didn't know them.

  "You... you" Ling Cang was blocked by her two rhetorical questions, speechless. How did she know?

  However, Ling Cang was indeed a strong member of the Ling family who could hold his own. He quickly reacted and avoided the main issue, "The matter at the arena was indeed Yun Xi's fault, but you directly attacked and injured someone because of this, which is excessive."

  He didn't know how Ling Wushuang could have such a sharp and agile body, Yun Xi was a ninth-grade Xuanzhe, among his peers, she was also the best, it was his proud daughter, but she couldn't beat Ling Wushuang who couldn't gather Xuanqi.

  This is utterly absurd! Who would believe it if I told them?

  Ling Wu's tone changed, and he spread his hands: "I just learned a bit of skill, wanting to find Second Sister to spar with. However, my skills are not refined, and I haven't grasped the right amount of force. If I accidentally hurt someone, you can't blame me."

  Her tone was light and innocent to the extreme.

  Hurting people was never her intention, she just wanted to soar through the clouds and cherish her life.

  At the words, a gasp of amazement rose from all around. How shameless! Not even a bit of skill? To be honed to such an extent? This is one-sided bullying, isn't it?

  The Ling family disciples were suddenly flustered, this rumor about the peerless young lady seems to be a bit... not living up to her name. If she's still useless like this, wouldn't they be even more worthless than trash?

  "Zongzi clever debate" Ling Cang was so angry that he actually spoke recklessly, "Then let me also cross swords with you!"

  The people around scattered with a whoosh, while in their hearts they uniformly despised him. Second Master actually wanted to lay hands on a junior, no matter what, it was just too unreasonable.

  As they spoke, a yellow mysterious power spread out, and Ling Cong's left leg moved half a step along the ground. His hands lifted up, and a series of sword lights flashed, as the thick mysterious energy transformed into a sword blade, rapidly stabbing towards Ling Wusuo.

  "Dad, kill that despicable Ling Wushuang!" On the other side, Ling Yunxi stood up and hid behind him. At this time, she had no mood to pretend to be a good person.

  Tian Xuan was indeed a formidable opponent. Ling Wu's eyes gleamed with a hint of coldness, and she wasn't stupid. In her state of furious anger, it would be best to avoid her sharp edges for now. However, this didn't mean that she had given up just yet.

  She said, today must be Ling Yun's life!

  Ling Wushuang's left hand swung out, his right hand drew back, and his hands seemed to move in slow motion. With one push and one pull, a formless energy burst forth from his body, colliding with Ling Cang's dark energy, causing a deafening explosion that sent dust flying everywhere.

  Mystical energy? No, but I'm quite skilled in spiritual power!

  "What kind of power is this?" Unlike the explosion of mysterious energy, the sudden shock made Ling Cang's feet move involuntarily, retreating a step back. By the time he regained his composure, there was no longer any sign of Ling Wu in front of him.

  It wasn't until a while later that Ling Cang suddenly realized where the other person was going, quickly turning around and shouting: "Halt!"

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, in the midst of chaos, Ling Wusuo had already reached behind Ling Cang's back, silently and unnoticed.

  "How dare you!" Ling Cang furiously roared, but it was still a case of too little, too late.

  Only to see Ling Wu Shuang stretch out one foot, exerting his strength, and kicking out fiercely, ruthlessly striking Ling Yun Xi's Dan Tian, Ling Yun Xi's eyes almost bulged out of their sockets, a pained cry didn't even have time to escape, before he fell to the ground, fainting dead away.

  "Ah——you dare, you actually dare!" Watching Ling Yun Xi being crippled right before his eyes, Ling Cang was enraged to the point of trembling all over, his dark energy suddenly surging to its peak. He let out a loud roar: "Ling Wu Shuang, come and take my life!"

  Ling Wushuang struck with one blow and immediately hit, then flashed his body and left.

  This kick ruined Ling Yun Xi's Dantian, making it impossible to condense his Xuanli. Adding this fatal injury, if he didn't die, he'd be crippled. This was a hundred times more severe than taking Ling Yun Xi's life.

  Under the raging flames of destruction, Ling Cang's attacks came one after another.

  "Hum---hum---" A shallow yellow mysterious aura, shot towards Ling Wu Suo, the originally flat ground in the courtyard was messed up, with rocks flying everywhere.

  Ling Wushuang dodged to the side, avoiding a stream of dark energy. She then performed several backflips, nimbly evading attacks and seizing the opportunity to strike. With her knee bent, Ling Wushuang's entire body shot towards Ling Cang like an arrow. In close combat, she believed that no one could withstand her!

  Ling Cong makes his move, a shallow yellow energy emerges, each strike is ruthless and deadly.

  Only to see Ling Cang's foot fiercely kick out, the floor cracked in response, the surrounding mysterious power gathered crazily, his hands raised high, and he shouted: "Submerged Dragon Emerges from the Sea"

  Hidden Dragon Emerges from the Sea, a middle-grade skill of the Earthly Level, can only be practiced by direct descendants of the Ling family.

  Ling Wushuang felt the fluctuations around her, and she thought to herself that it wasn't good, she had still underestimated Ling Cang. Ling Wushuang almost felt as if a heavy and profound aura was rushing towards her, causing all of her movements to slow down.

  "Ling Wusong, go die!" Ling Cang smiled cruelly, and a yellow mysterious aura, vaguely dragon-shaped, emerged from his hands.

  "Stop!"

  Suddenly, a furious roar exploded in Ling Cang's mind, striking him so hard that his eyes flashed with golden light. He couldn't react in time, and the dark energy rebounded, leaving him dazed and stumbling backward several steps, almost falling to the ground.

  Ling Wushuang felt a sudden disappearance of the oppressive feeling all over her body, and she furrowed her brow in confusion, what's going on?
