Chapter 726: Chapter 724: Tower Guardian Elder! Pei Ji!

"None of you will leave this place alive today!"

Liu Jing Xing suddenly appeared before Lin Bai and Bai Xiaoxiao.

A terrifying power of the Human Elixir Realm Ninth Layer swept across the area, shaking all directions.

Under this pressure, comparable to a mountain, Lin Bai and Bai Xiaoxiao both paled and gazed at Liu Jing Xing in deep shock.

At this moment, Feng Hua, whose steps were slightly delayed, entered Lin’s Residence, pointed at Lin Bai, and said through gritted teeth: "Senior Liu Jing Xing, this man is Lin Bai! He killed Young Masters Liu Ben and Liu Hai!"

Feng Hua pointed at Lin Bai and laughed angrily.

Feng Hua was overjoyed at this moment. With the strong support of Liu Jing Xing, he firmly believed that even if Lin Bai had heaven-and-earth shaking power, he wouldn’t be able to leave alive today!

Liu Jing Xing stared at Lin Bai with a murderous look and said coldly: "So you are Lin Bai? Hmm, good!"

"Boy, prepare to die!"

Upon hearing Feng Hua’s identification of Lin Bai, Liu Jing Xing’s anger flared up to the extreme. His figure blurred into a waning shadow, wrapped up in undefeatable energy, it charged towards Lin Bai and Bai Xiaoxiao.

"Xiaoxiao, run!"

Lin Bai’s face was solemn. He pushed Bai Xiaoxiao away and withdrew the Qingge Sword in a flash, slashing fiercely towards Liu Jing Xing.

"Wind and Snow!"

"Flying Swords! One Sword Turns into Nine!"

"Divine Sword Thunder Control Skill!"

Facing Liu Jing Xing of the Human Elixir Realm Ninth Layer, Lin Bai didn’t hold back any of his power. He used the strongest techniques he had at his disposal, attacking Liu Jing Xing.

Lin Bai’s powerful Sword Qi swept across the heavens and earth, blocking half of Liu Jing Xing’s palm strike.

But half of it still struck Lin Bai and Bai Xiaoxiao.

Spurt! Spurt!

Lin Bai and Bai Xiaoxiao were instantly knocked back, spitting out fresh blood, their faces deathly pale.

"Your strength is not bad, too bad your cultivation is too weak!"

"Humph."

"You will all die today!"

Liu Jing Xing sneered and gazed at Bai Xiaoxiao, saying coldly, "Lin Bai, today I’ll let you watch as your beloved dies before your very eyes!"

As he spoke, Liu Jing Xing bolted towards Bai Xiaoxiao.

"No!"

Lin Bai watched Liu Jing Xing with bloodshot eyes and roared with anger.

Liu Jing Xing’s power, at the Human Elixir Realm Ninth Layer, was something Bai Xiaoxiao couldn’t possibly withstand.

Seeing Liu Jing Xing going for the kill against Bai Xiaoxiao, Lin Bai was livid: "Liu Family! If I, Lin Bai, don’t die today, I’ll fight to the death against your Liu family and your Fist Daoist Courtyard!"

"Liu Family, if you dare kill her, I’ll annihilate your entire family!"

Lin Bai roared wildly at Liu Jing Xing.

Bai Xiaoxiao’s face was ashen, she watched as Liu Jing Xing’s full-force palm descended, its terrifying power enough to shatter a mountain.

She naturally knew she couldn’t survive this strike.

"Heh, talking tough is easy, but let me tell you, you won’t have the chance. Today, you all will die!" Liu Jing Xing sneered.

The palm came crashing down!

Its mighty power closing in on Bai Xiaoxiao’s face.

Bai Xiaoxiao’s face showed despair. She looked at Lin Bai and revealed a bleak smile: "Lin Bai, see you in the next life!"

"No!" Lin Bai cried out, his face flushing red with anger, veins standing out on his forehead.

"Liu Family! I swear! I, Lin Bai, will annihilate your entire family!"

Lin Bai let out an angry roar.

At this moment, from Lin Bai’s right eye, a green bud slowly sprouted from the crimson-red Demonic Seed...

"Humph, Liu Jing Xing, you actually dare to kill a genius on the Potential List. Don’t you fear that the Miracle Ridge will seek you out for trouble?"

"I’m afraid that even your big brother can’t protect you when the Miracle Ridge starts their investigation."

Suddenly, at this moment, a shadow of a person appeared beside Bai Xiaoxiao. Then, with a single palm strike, Liu Jing Xing was knocked flying.

Thump, thump, thump, thump——

The force of this palm caused Liu Jing Xing to continuously retreat. He lifted his head in absolute shock.

Just a casual palm strike was enough to repel a highly skilled martial artist of the Human Elixir Realm Ninth Layer.

Moreover, Liu Jing Xing only managed to stabilize himself after retreating over a dozen steps.

What kind of power was this?

This was undoubtedly the Earth Elixir Realm!

"Who dares to ruin my good deeds!" Liu Jing Xing looked up with a defiant expression.

At this moment, beside Bai Xiaoxiao, there stood a white-haired, youthful-looking old man. His face was adorned with a benevolent smile, and his eyes held a glint of sharpness.

"Do you not recognize me anymore?"

The white-haired youthful-looking old man inquired with a smile.

Liu Jing Xing looked up and his eyes widened in surprise, "So, it is Elder Pei Ji, one of the thirty-six Tower Guardian Elders of Ascension Tower."

Pei Ji gave a faint smile, "I thought you forgot about me."

Pei Ji, one of the thirty-six Tower Guardian Elders of Ascension Tower, was a master of unfathomable cultivation strength, a real power of the Earth Elixir Realm.

The Guardian Elders are responsible for ensuring that the Ascension Tower is not attacked by warriors.

On one hand, the Guardian Elders have another responsibility—that is to protect the top ten genius warriors on the Potential List.

Bai Xiaoxiao had previously claimed Murong Changtian’s head and went to the Ascension Tower. Hence, Bai Xiaoxiao’s name appeared in the ninth position on the Potential List.

According to the rules of the Miracle Ridge, the Miracle Ridge would send strong warriors to protect Bai Xiaoxiao, to prevent her untimely demise in Tianding City.

Liu Jing Xing chuckled and asked, "What brings Elder Pei Ji here?"

Pei Ji replied with a faint smile, "Bai Xiaoxiao ranked the ninth on the Potential List. According to the rules of the Miracle Ridge, I must protect her, so she remains safe and sound and can attend the assessment of the Miracle Ridge."

Liu Jing Xing was astounded. He looked at Bai Xiaoxiao and said, "She is ranked ninth?"

Pei Ji chuckled coldly, "What? Do you think I’m joking with you?"

"Elder Pei Ji, you must be joking. That was not my intention," said Liu Jing Xing, with an insincere smile. He knew very well that with Pei Ji’s presence, killing Bai Xiaoxiao could be quite challenging.

Liu Jing Xing immediately changed direction and looked at Lin Bai, "This person is not among the top ten on the Potential List, right?"

Pei Ji glanced at Lin Bai and smiled, "No, he’s not."

Upon hearing this, Liu Jing Xing immediately brightened up and thirst for murder welled up in his heart. He said, "In that case, I request Elder Pei Ji to stay out of this matter. Later, I’ll inform my big brother, and we will have a great gift for you."

Pei Ji gave a slight smile. He did not want to provoke the Elder of the Fist Daoist Courtyard for no reason.

He simply smiled, implying his approval.

Bai Xiaoxiao was shocked and urged Pei Ji, "Elder, please save Lin Bai!"

Pei Ji sighed lightly, shook his head silently, indicating that he would not intervene.

Upon seeing that Pei Ji approved, Liu Jing Xing immediately sneered and attacked Lin Bai again, "You are not in the top ten on the Potential list, right? So now, surrender your life!"

"Die!"

Liu Jing Xing swooped towards Lin Bai!

Lin Bai, seeing that Bai Xiaoxiao was safe, finally let out a sigh of relief.

Lin Bai was not afraid of death. What he feared most was getting his close friends and relatives implicated!

Seeing Liu Jing Xing rushing over, Lin Bai sternly said, "Old dog, you better kill me today. Otherwise, your Fist Daoist Courtyard and your Liu Family will surely be annihilated by me!"

Liu Jing Xing sneered, "You won’t have that chance. You will definitely die today!"

A palm strike suddenly landed, the heaven-destroying power nearly shattered Lin Bai’s spirit.

"No!" A heart-wrenching scream escaped from Bai Xiaoxiao. She glared at Liu Jing Xing, her eyes filled with anger, hatred, and a thick murderous intent...
