Ling Yun looked at Ling Xi in confusion, and she told him. “Trust me, she will fail to break through and suffer a backlash for her failure. That way, her mental state will be at the bottom, so you can easily make a contract with her.”

pàпdá-ň?νêι.сóМ Ling Yun’s eyes lit up after hearing her words, and he was eager to make a contract with Helena. Since she wasn’t his enemy, he didn’t ask Ling Xi to do anything to her, and he wanted to make a contract with her on a friendly basis.

Just as Ling Xi said, Helena’s pitch-black flames became chaotic a moment later, and they spread to other areas. Luckily, their location was very far from the city, and there weren’t too many trees around them.

“She really will fail to break through.” Ling Yun sighed softly at Helena’s situation, but he couldn’t do anything to help her. He also had no intention of asking Ling Xi to help her right now, as he wanted to make a contract with her, and this was his only opportunity.

*Splurt*

Suddenly, Helena spat out quite a lot of blood from her mouth and fell to the ground afterward, and her expression also looked painful.

“Damn it! The qi in this world is too thin for me to break through, and this is the second time I have failed! Even though I have used the rainbow flower, I still can’t break through.” Helena cursed loudly as she clutched her chest, which was in great pain, then she let out a weak cry. “Who?”

Ling Xi immediately led Ling Yun over to Helena, who was lying on the ground helplessly, and she could only stare at them with high vigilance, especially since her body was immobilized by the backlash, and her Qi had also been drained clean.

“What are you doing in this lowest realm?” Ling Xi asked with a smile, making Helena frown, and she continued. “I knew you were a demon from the Underworld Realm, and your presence in this realm really surprised me.”

Helena was stunned momentarily; she didn’t expect that Ling Xi would recognize her identity. “How… how did you know about that?”

“You are too young, and you won’t be able to recognize me.” Ling Xi then squatted beside her and spoke with a mysterious smile. “Anyway, I can save you and help you break through to the King Realm.”

“Really?” Helena asked doubtfully, she was not convinced by Ling Xi’s words, but she could also feel that her cultivation was much higher than hers. ‘She wouldn’t lie to me, would she?’

“En.” Ling Xi nodded and took out a pill, and she showed it to Helena. “First, this pill can heal your injuries. Second, I dare to guarantee you can break through, but on one condition.”

“Tell me your term.” Helena quickly ate the bait Ling Xi gave her, as she had already failed twice to break through, and she wasn’t sure she would succeed on the third try either.

Ling Xi smiled and pointed at Ling Yun and told her. “I want you to make a contract with him.”

Helena didn’t answer immediately; she was stunned by Ling Xi’s words for a long time. Moments later, she let out a weak cry. “What? You want me to make a contract with that guy?”

Ling Xi nodded to her. “You may think he is too young, but I can tell you he is a special man. Even more so if you become his contract beast and dual cultivation partner because his bloodline and physique are extraordinary, and both can greatly help you.”

Again, Helena was stunned by Ling Xi’s words and thought about it hard. She has high self-esteem; if she becomes a contract beast, it’s the same as degrading herself.

“You need to know one thing, my soul is also bound to him.” Ling Xi then released a bit of her aura and asked her mockingly. “Do you think your self-esteem is higher than mine?”

‘What the hell! She was even stronger than the ruler of the Underworld Realm.’ Helena’s eyes widened; she was utterly shocked by Ling Xi’s cultivation. Just releasing a bit of her aura had already frightened her, and she felt a fear that surpassed the lord of her realm.

Ling Yun looked at them in bewilderment. Since Ling Xi only directed her Qi at Helena, he couldn’t sense her Qi as terrifying as her.

“So what’s your decision?” Ling Xi couldn’t wait to help Ling Yun make a contract with Helena.

Helena looked at Ling Yun and sighed softly, and she told him. “Press your forehead with mine.”

Ling Yun was very excited upon hearing that; he immediately squatted before her and pressed his forehead against Helena’s.

Soon a black light was in the middle of their foreheads, and two symbols appeared on their foreheads moments later.

On Ling Yun’s forehead appeared the mark of a Raven, and on Helena’s forehead appeared the mark of a black dragon.

After they separated their foreheads, Helena immediately took out a small mirror to look at the symbol on her forehead; her eyes widened, and she looked at Ling Yun in shock.

“Do you understand now?” Ling Xi asked with a chuckle, and Helena simply nodded at her. As promised, she immediately gave the pill to her.

After that, Ling Yun sent Helena into the Yin-Yang Chamber to rest, and Ling Xi brought him back to the previous forest to fight against the beasts.

“You have to be careful hunting in this place, most of the beasts in this place are in the Lower and Middle Core Realm, but I believe you can handle them well.” Ling Xi then flew up into the sky as she spoke again. “Oh, one more thing. You must not use your dragon aura, or your training will be in vain.”

Ling Yun only nodded to her, and he immediately put on his apocalypse set. ‘Hey, system, show my stats.’

‘Not bad.’ Ling Yun nodded in satisfaction and immediately looked for the beasts in the Lower Core Realm first. ｂ𝚍ｏｖ𝚕．𝚝

Ling Xi was floating in the sky, observing Ling Yun and the women who were also fighting the beasts. “Ling’er and Shu’er’s combat skills are not bad; they already know how to properly hunt beasts. Meanwhile, Jing’er and Xiya still have much to learn, but Xing’er can teach them well.”

Ling Clan

“What happened to you, Father?” Ling Jie asked Ling Ming, who was slumped in his chair, his face pale, and tears dripped from his eyes.

Huo Lan and Ling Yu’er also looked at him in confusion. Ling Ming was previously in a normal state and was fine, but his attitude had suddenly changed, and he still had not told them anything.

After some time, Ling Ming stretched out his hand, and they saw a broken jade in his hand. “Xiao’er is dead.”

“What!? Ling Jie and Ling Yu’er both gasped in shock upon hearing that.

On the other hand, Huo Lan was stunned for a moment, but then she laughed in her heart. ‘Ha ha ha! That bastard is finally dead! So no one can shake my position in this clan, and I will have complete control of this clan sooner or later.’

Ling Jie slumped in his chair and asked his father. “What exactly happened? How could he suddenly die?”

“What are we going to do now, grandpa? Are we going straight to the outside world?” Ling Yu’er asked in a sad tone as she turned to her mother and raised her eyebrows at her expression. ‘Sigh! Mother’s attitude is too much! Uncle Xiao just died, but she looks so happy instead!’

Ling Ming got up from his seat and walked out as he spoke to them. “Let’s go to the outside world right now! I want to bury my son, and I will also look for his killer after that.”

Ling Jie and Ling Yu’er immediately followed him, and Huo Lan followed them, but the happy smile on her face could not be hidden.

Ling House

After receiving the report from their superiors, many policemen immediately came to the Ling House, and they were shocked to find that many people had been killed in that house.

They acted quickly to seal the house and called several ambulances to take care of their corpses.

Soon, reporters also came to the Ling House to cover the news of Ling Xiao and the others’ deaths, but the police set up barricades to block them, so they could only get the news from the outside.

The citizens of Beijing were shocked to hear of the massacre at the Ling House, especially since Ling Xiao was one of the richest people in their country and held a powerful position in the government.

However, they were all confused by one thing, the police were unable to find the whereabouts of Ling Xiao’s second wife and daughter, because both them currently in different places.
