“Are you sure you can steal my talent just like that?”

　　Ling Xian’s words were sarcastic as he stared directly at Yu Wu Xiu. The inner demon in him was disappearing.

　　“I really hate how you are looking like you don’t care when you are clearly trapped.”

　　Yu Wu Xiu’s brows were quivering. But very quickly, they relaxed and she smiled. “But very soon I won’t need to look at your annoying face.”

　　“Same for me as well. I am going to forget you completely.”

　　Ling Xian softly smiled. “Come at me. Show me your Pearl of Opportunity and try and see if you can take my talent.”

　　“I don’t know where you are getting your confidence from.”

　　Yu Wu Xiu revealed a taunting smile. No longer hesitating, she activated the Pearl of Opportunity.

　　Immediately, the black and white pearl began to emit light and an eerier aura. They tightly bounded Ling Xian and then next, a mysterious force descended down and attempted to strip him of his talent.

　　“Just you wait. It won’t be long before all your talent will be transported to me. I wonder if you can still smile when that happens.”

　　Yu Wu Xiu’s face was full of heat as she stared at the young man before her with high expectations as if waiting to see him become flustered.

　　Sadly, she was about to be disappointed again.

　　Not only did Ling Xian not show a trace of fear, but he also displayed a soft grin. It was a relaxed and happy grin.

　　Because the moment the Pearl of Opportunity was activated, the stubborn thoughts in his mind disappeared completely and the inner demons were destroyed as a result. Why wouldn’t he feel relaxed and happy?

　　All this time, he couldn’t forget Yu Wu Xiu despite the fact that he had seen through her. He needed something like this to happen for his inner demon to be completely destroyed.

　　Now that the woman was acting as ruthlessly as she had in the Hidden Territory, the last rays of imagination in his heart were naturally crushed.

　　Therefore, he had completely let go of the woman.

　　This meant the inner demon in him has disappeared and all the ties he felt with her were gone as well.

　　Ling Xian’s expression turned frigid and he said, “It will be you who will stop smiling first.”

　　Just then, he switched his original self with his clone.

　　HOMMMMM!

　　The moment his original self appeared, an infinite amount of power rolled out of him and crushed the evil black and white light.

　　This changed Yu Wu Xiu’s expression. The victorious smile on her face turned into shock and awe.

　　It was both because of the terrifying Qi Ling Xian emitted and also because of the fact that he just broke the bound of the Pearl of Opportunity!

　　Remember that it was one of the heavenly Pearls. Though it wasn’t the strongest, it was extraordinary enough to bound all cultivators. Yet Ling Xian broke its bind in an instant. What did this mean?

　　It meant his capabilities were insane and it meant that his capabilities surpassed Yu Wu Xiu’s!

　　Therefore, why wouldn’t she be in awe?

　　“Perhaps you were too influenced by your greed. Why would I try to set you up if I didn’t have much capabilities?”

　　At that, Ling Xian once again unleashed his spiritual energy and clashed it against the Pearl of Opportunity.

　　HOMMMMM!

　　After another earth splitting rumble, an infinite amount of light exploded and swirled around the entire cave.

　　When the light finally dissipated, the black and white pearl rolled backward – very obviously dimmer now. Then, a man in white appeared in Yu Wu Xiu’s sight.

　　His brows were sharp, his black hair was softly dancing in the wind. Similar to a young God descending, his demeanor was threatening and authoritative.

　　Whether it was his aura or his visage, neither could be compared to a regular person. He could truly be described as heroic and extraordinary.

　　This once again changed Yu Wu Xiu’s expression. She shouted, “You are not Xian Ling. Who are you?”

　　“To you, and to the future me, I am just a stranger.” Ling Xian said softly, his expression was non-existent.

　　It was obvious that he had completely let go of Yu Wu Xiu.

　　To him, this was a great thing. It meant he would no longer be bothered by his inner demons.

　　“It seems like the other guy was your clone. The one here now is your original self.”

　　Yu Wu Xiu’s fists tightened. She stared deadly at Ling Xian and felt her body getting colder and colder.

　　Not even in her dreams did she think that Ling Xian would find out about her plans. She really didn’t think his cultivation level would be this terrifying.

　　Even she found it hard to breathe under the suppression of his unleashed Qi. She finally realized that she was done. She was about to fall in front of this beast like a person without any chance of escaping.

　　“Your guess is correct. Sadly, you learned it too late.” Ling Xian grinned. He then picked up his pace and headed towards her.

　　Every step he took, more Qi was released. It truly was like a real dragon was awakening – terrifying enough to make others tremble.

　　Yu Wu Xiu followed his step, except she was stepping backward. It was obvious that she was utterly shocked by Ling Xian’s actions.

　　“I told you, the one who stops smiling first would be you. Do you believe me now?”

　　Ling Xian glared at this woman the same way a God would. He didn’t think anything of her.

　　“I believe it. I really did not think your real capabilities would be this powerful.” Yu Wu Xiu dropped the awe she was feeling and exhaled deeply.

　　The Pearl of Opportunity had dimmed and her capabilities were only of the beginning stage of the completion level. She only got here because of all the medicinal Dans she had as well. The limitation of her capabilities meant she likely won’t even be able to run away.

　　Now she had finally realized how dumb she was.

　　“I really didn’t think you would be a powerhouse of the completion level.”

　　Yu Wu Xiu chuckled bitterly, “I didn’t think anyone would hide his real capabilities and identity just to enter the Shang Qing Sect and set me up.”

　　“You are wrong.”

　　Ling Xian shook his head, “The reason why I came to the Shang Qing Sect isn’t all because of you.”

　　“So then, there is something you want from the Shang Qing Sect.” Yu Wu Xiu’s eyes flickered. Nobody could tell what she was thinking.

　　“It’s unrelated to you.”

　　Ling Xian glared at her. The moment his inner demons evaporated, he felt no more love towards her. There was no hate either. To him, Yu Wu Xiu was merely a stranger he was passing by.

　　Therefore, he said softly, “Since you have lost, then accept your punishment.”

　　Hearing this, Yu Wu Xiu’s face turned white. She gritted her teeth and decided to try to use the Pearl of Opportunity to escape.

　　HOMMMMM!

　　The black and white light once against flooded out. She consumed an unknown medicinal Dan, and at that moment, she suddenly arrived at the peak of the completion level!

　　Her cultivation level plus the power from the Pearl of Opportunity tangled and turned into an explosive amount of power!

　　“Xian Ling, you truly are strong. But I am not someone who will go without a fight!”

　　Yu Wu Xiu screamed. She used all her Qi to manipulate the Pearl of Opportunity and it slammed towards Ling Xian.

　　Without a doubt, this strike was powerful. Though her position at the peak of the completion level was because of the medicinal Dans, the Pearl itself was still a dominating treasure.

　　This slam was a heavy one. Very few people from the same level as her would be able to defend against it.

　　But before Ling Xian, it was nothing.

　　“Since you refuse to give up until you are facing death, then let me diminish all your hope.”

　　Speaking softly, Ling Xian threw a punch. The power from the throw immediately defeated the Pearl of Opportunity. Then, like a ghost, he appeared behind Yu Wu Xiu and his right hand clawed against her neck.

　　“If you move a single inch, I will end you.”
