Celestial Peak

Chapter 146: Slaughter House I

In the act of infiltrating a castle or a fortress, the key to success would always be silence and swiftness. Wang Ling was all too aware of this and moved like so.

Not letting anything pass his attention, he and Bai Xue moved like shadows that have no corporeal body. They killed by breaking the neck of the guards and the hidden forces.

They didn't resort to any bloodshed, blood splash might reveal their positions. If they ever needed to kill with a sword or something that will spill blood. Bai Xue would suck up all the blood from the ground and drink it like juice.

However, as they entered inside. They made sure to first interrogate someone and ask them where their master stayed. They asked three people and only did what they told them after confirming the truth. Wang Ling and Bai Xue killed those who gave them information. It was a painless death.

Wang Ling and Bai Xue stood before a door made from the fragrant [Rose Oak]. He opened the door and entered with leisure as if the house belongs to him. He stepped forth and entered the room.

Slash!

A sword slash accompanied by spirit qi suddenly flew towards his direction. It was a horizontal slash aimed at Wang Ling's neck. It was fast, but with the Devil's Pupils, it seemed to be floating in the air. He caught the sword by pinching it with his thumb and index finger.

Someone exclaimed to his right and saw a beautiful lady with a voluptuous breast and perfect waist who was consequently wearing loose robe as if she was getting ready to rest. Her figure was alluring and tempting to take.

"I presume you're Dai Xiu, the Red Poison of the Chaos Union?" Wang Ling asked as he kept his hands on his back.

Standing with his back straight and chest puffed out, Wang Ling's figure was oppressive. Coupled with his aura that was sickening as it was oozing with the aura of slaughter and death. Wang Ling seemed like the envoy of Lord Death himself while standing before a grand saint cultivator.

Dai Xiu retreated backward and chose to let go of the sword which Wang Ling kept inside his storage ring after getting his hands on it. Dai Xiu stabled her footing and looked at Wang Ling with wariness present in her eyes.

But as she stood before Wang Ling, she propped her chest forward and puckered her lips to make herself more alluring. She knew that Wang Ling was someone she could not match, so she immediately resorted to her womanly charms early on in order to make sure she won't get killed here.

"That I am, are you the Northern Devil? The one that had been destroying the sects and faction? If you're here, are you going to kill me? or" She intentionally cut her words and gave Wang Ling a seductive gaze.

Wang Ling sighed inwardly and walked up to her slowly. He was in no hurry, Bai Xue was covering the entire room. She dares try anything and she will die.

The guards were dead even if there were still alive guards, they cannot kill Wang Ling and Bai Xue.

Dai Xiu stepped backed unconsciously every time Wang Ling Wang Ling's feet would land on the ground. Soon, the two of them hem found their way on a dead end with a wall keeping Dai Xiu to move any more than what she had already reached.

"Wwhat do you want of me>" Dai Xiu was no one stupid, she was smart and already knew that her plan of seducing Wang Ling was not working and now, fear lingers inside her head.

Wang Ling stood before and took out a sword.

Slash!

He made one action that left Dai Xiu unable to eke a sound out or even move as her feet was trembling too much. Wang Ling had aimed close to her ears and in the process of Wang Ling trying something to intimidate her, it resulted in a great success.

"Do you wish to live or do you wish to die? If you wish to live, then follow my orders, if you wish to die and even pretend to help only to end up backstabbing me, then I will torture you till you will wish for death to carry you away."

At Wang Ling's words, Dai Xiu remembered the tales and rumors looming around the cities of the Frost Domain. The Northern Devil was a fierce and fearsome personality that will kill anyone in a horrific manner.

Some stories state that Wang Ling will eat every living flesh in a certain kingdom in order to satisfy his own lust for battle. The scorched and sword marks that was left behind by the fierce battle against a single man and an entire sect.

Dai Xiu was fearing for her life, so much so that a part of her was sure that she was going to die and had given up. But her will to survive was ignited upon the sudden words of getting to live. This resulted in her agreeing readily.

"II wish to live, I do not want to die."

Wang Ling smiled, he knew that Dai Xiu was not a fighter despite being a cultivator. She was a fifty-five years old woman who still looked like in her twenties. For someone at that age while being a saint, it was truly young. Only a handful ever get to be considered anyways.

Seeing the trembling Dai Xiu, Wang Ling brought a single piece of paper, "I want you to issue an order and gather the people of the Chaos Union. I also want every higher-up they have present. Use this as bait."

Wang Ling threw her a piece of paper and as Wang Ling did, he said another piece, "Do it in three days' time, any longer than that and I will kill you."

Wang Ling was not someone who will move without any plans. The planning he now with him shall start now.
