"Ah!"

  Shui Ling'er let out a startled cry.

  Her life-saving talisman had been crushed!

  An elder would soon arrive to protect her and she would be forcibly removed from the Demo Hunting petition.

  She hadn't expected Lin Hao to do this, and with a hint of grievan her beautiful eyes, she murmured, "Why did you do that?"

  Lin Hao allowed her delicate fists to pound against his chest, a slight smirk pying on his lips.

  "Now that you're safe, I go all out!"

  "Those bastards treated me like this, I have to pay them bad make a big move!"

  Previously, he hadn't hoped to achieve any ranking in this Demo Hunting petition.

  After all, there were many prodigies from various sects, all strohan him, and they had helpers. In terms of killis and seizing demon cores, he definitely couldn't pete.

  But now, he was ready to give it a shot!

  Seize the Primordial Yin from female cultivators to enhance his strength, seize demon cores, and fight for a ranking!

  Who could be faster than him in obtaining demon cores?

  Thinking of this, Lin Hao's expression grew colder.

  Meanwhile, the guardian elder arrived to take Shui Ling'er away, and she relutly left.

  But such were the rules of the petition, she had to leave.

  "Lin Hao, take care of yourself, don't be reckless!"

  Shui Ling'er only had time to say oence before being forcibly taken away by the guardian elder.

  Lin Hao watched the dire Shui Ling'er disappeared in, staring for a long time, all his thoughts turning into a sigh.

  It's good she's gone, now he could go all out.

  "The first target is Wang Shihan!"

  His gaze gradually turned icy as a sword light flew from his fiips, killing the immobilized snake demon.

  He ski, extracted its tendons, and took the demon core and gallbdder.

  The snake demon's rank wasn't high, but even a mosquito is meat.

  This snake demon hadn't been cultivating for long, was still young, and its meat was quite tender.

  Lin Hao skillfully started a fire a up a pot, cooking snake soup and frying snake segments!

  This tasted much better than inedia pills.

  Moreover, the snake demon had cultivated, so its meat tained a trace of spiritual energy.

  Eating snake meat not only satisfied his appetite but also provided a slight be to his cultivation.

  ...

  At the thousand-year cold pond, the biting cold seemed to freeze the air, and the surrounding resilient pnts were all frosted and frozen!

  In this harsh pce, a long-haired woman sat cross-legged by the pond, cultivating, as the dragon-like cold air was inhaled into her abdomen.

  After a battle with Lin Hao, Wang Shihan was severely injured, and it was difficult to recover with just healing pills.

  Fortunately, she found a blessed spot.

  This cold pond perfectly matched her spiritual root attribute.

  Meditating and healing here was twice as effective with half the effort, and in just two days, her injuries were half healed.

  Her fairy-like cheeks, however, flickered with threads of hatred!

  "Lin Hao, damn demon spawn, just you wait, once my injuries heal, I will surely cut you down!"

  "I've e, let's see how you pn to cut me down!"

  Wang Shihan was startled, quickly turning around to see Lin Hao looking at her with amusement.

  "You... how did you find me?"

  Lin Hao tossed a person tied up like a dumpling into the cold pond, saying coldly, "Of course, your loyal paniht me here!"

  Wang Shihan's face stiffened. She did want to settle scores with Lin Hao, but not now, her injuries weren't healed!

  "Weren't you looking for me? Now I'm here, let's see how you pn to cut me down!"

  Wang Shihan's eyebrows kogether, her pretty face covered with a yer of frost.

  "Lin Hao, don't be arrogant, even injured, I still cut you down!"

  "Really? It's not that I look down on you, but in your current state, you really 't!" Lin Hao's voice was cold, colder thahousand-year cold pond!

  "I..."

  Looking into those star-like cold eyes, Wang Shihan's tongue was tied, for a moment, she really didn't know how to retort!

  "If you don't make a move, I will!"

  Lin Hao's fingers formed a spell, and a flying sword shot out from the sword sheath behind him.

  Buzz!

  The long sword hummed!

  "You..."

  Wang Shihan's expression was flustered, feeling her legs go weak.

  "Crimson Sun Ssh!"

  Lin Hao roared to the sky, and immediately crimson fmes rose around, melting the frost os.

  The thousand-year cold pond was steaming with heat!

  Such a domineering teique!

  Wang Shihan sighed, her heart filled with sorrow, she could see it now, her injuries were only half healed, but her oppo was fully recovered!

  She couldn't win! A thought fshed in her mind, wanting to turn and flee, but... it was obviously too te.

  The scorg sword energy, like the sun, sshed towards her instantly!

  Damn demon spawn, actually going for the kill!

  Wang Shihan cursed inwardly, her figure flickering tinuously, pulling out a stack of defealismans from her ste bag.

  Her defensive magical treasure had beeroyed i battle, now she could only rely on talismans.

  She erected several light shields in front of her, barely blog the sword energy.

  But Lin Hao's attacks were like a raging river, tinuous and unending!

  One move hadn't finished before the arrived!

  Boom!

  Sword energy raged!

  Even with Wang Shihan's quick reas, desperately throwing talismans, she couldn't hold out.

  Bang!

  Bang!

  Bang!

  Three secutive sword energies struck Wang Shihan's body!

  Puff!

  She spat out a mouthful of blood, then was sshed six zhang away like a broken sack.

  Before she could nd, Lin Hao moved like lightning, closing in, his hand f a cw, grippihroat.

  "Now that you're in my hands, do you have anything to say?"

  Wang Shihan furrowed her eyebrows, speaking hatefully, "Demon spawn, don't think I'll submit, kill me or cut me, do as you please!"

  Lin Hao extended a finger, stroking the woman's pretty face, saying softly, "Such a beauty, it would be a pity to kill."

  "You... what do you want?!" Wang Shihan's body trembled slightly, clearly... she was afraid.

  "Didn't you keep calling me a demon spawn, I naturally have to do what demons do!"

  With that, Lin Hao's palm emitted a burst of spiritual energy, shattering the woman's clothes.

  This woman was a wild horse, who knows what schemes she harbored, so it's best to be ho with each other!
