As Wu Tian was feeling utterly bewildered, Ling Tengyun suddenly let out a furious roar and shot out like a wild wolf, lunging directly at him.
Ling Tengyun's speed was far greater than other monsters, and his attacks were also more ferocious.
Even an ordinary spiritual cultivator would likely not have had time to react.
However, Wu Tian's expression did not change in the slightest. Ling Tengyun instantly appeared before him.
Seeing Ling Tengyun's eyes filled with ferocity, Wu Tian flickered and reappeared behind him.
He then pierced through Ling Tengyun's back with his sword. The force was so great that it pinned him firmly to the ground!
Shattered bricks immediately flew outwards, and at the same time, intense lightning erupted from the point of penetration.
Countless bolts of electricity surged into Ling Tengyun's body, completely destroying all of his muscle tissue.
Ling Tengyun let out a heart-wrenching howl for a few seconds before ceasing to struggle, collapsing onto the ground like a dead fish.
"Ah..." he let out a faint moan.
Hearing this sound, Wu Tian was startled and quickly pulled out the Ben Lei Sword, then hauled Ling Tengyun up.
His feeling was indeed correct; Ling Tengyun had regained his consciousness.
Although only a sliver of spirit remained in his eyes, he had at least reverted from being a monster to a human.
With Wu Tian's abilities, he naturally knew this was a sign of the light before death.
To save time, he quickly shouted at Ling Tengyun, "Hey! What's going on here! Tell me quickly!"
Ling Tengyun's eyes fluttered open slightly. It was unclear if he recognized Wu Tian.
He softly said, "Dad... Dad..."
After saying this, his head tilted, and he became completely still.
Although these were just two short words, they stirred up a tempest in Wu Tian's heart.
Dad?
Wasn't Ling Tengyun's father Ling Xin Chun?
But why would Ling Tengyun say such a thing before his death?
Could this have something to do with Ling Xin Chun?
The more Wu Tian thought about it, the stranger it felt. However, at this moment, the other monsters would not give him time to ponder.
After Ling Tengyun's death, they became even more enraged, letting out growls and preparing to pounce on Wu Tian again.
Wu Tian's mind was in turmoil, and the immense confusion made him feel somewhat irritable.
He no longer wished to be entangled with these monsters.
He was certain that Ling Xin Chun was definitely involved in this matter. He had to quickly clean up the mess and then head to the Ling family.
With this thought, he tightly gripped the Ben Lei Sword, and the lightning on the sword began to flicker again.
Although these monsters lacked intelligence, they possessed a sense of danger.
The energy from the Ben Lei Sword made them restless, so they bared their fangs and claws, charging at Wu Tian in unison once more!
At this moment, Wu Tian's expression suddenly turned fierce!
He swung the Ben Lei Sword with all his might, creating a massive arc!
Instantly, a circular arc of blue lightning shot outwards, immediately engulfing the monsters.
The monsters abruptly stopped in their tracks, then raised their hands and began to convulse, while explosions continuously occurred on their bodies.
The arc of lightning eventually struck the outer walls of the surrounding shops, shattering all the glass, causing the walls to explode, and leaving deep marks.
Following this, all the monsters fell to the ground.
Their hearts had been destroyed; they were now nothing more than corpses.
After unleashing such a move, Wu Tian's breathing became somewhat ragged.
This area-of-effect attack had consumed quite a bit of his energy, causing his face to turn pale.
He scanned his surroundings. In the vast central plaza, apart from himself, no one else remained standing.
The entire plaza was littered with corpses, looking as if a fierce battle had just taken place.
But Wu Tian did not pay much attention to this, his mind entirely occupied with pondering Ling Tengyun's dying words.
He could clearly sense that this matter was inextricably linked to the Ling family.
Could it be that the Ling family had caused such a huge disturbance to deal with him?
But that didn't make sense!
The Ling family, after all, was merely a secular family. How could they possess such immense power?
Moreover, the fact that even Ling Tengyun had ended up like this made it even more inexplicable.
The layers of doubt weighed heavily on Wu Tian's heart, making him feel breathless.
But just then, a startling explosion echoed from a distance!
Wu Tian instinctively looked over and saw a figure falling towards him from the dark night sky!
Wu Tian was startled and quickly flew up, catching the person in his arms.
However, the impact on the person was too severe, sending Wu Tian flying backward until he finally stopped after sliding seven or eight meters.
"How are you, are you alright!" Wu Tian quickly asked.
But as soon as he spoke, he froze.
Because he realized that the person in his arms was Li Xing Yun!
This turn of events struck him as unbelievable. He quickly asked, "Li Xing Yun? What are you doing here!"
Hearing Wu Tian's voice, Li Xing Yun was also greatly startled.
He quickly looked at Wu Tian, exclaiming in surprise, "Wu Tian? What are you doing here too?"
Wu Tian examined Li Xing Yun's body. Li Xing Yun's aura was weak, and he was injured in multiple places, appearing to have gone through a fierce battle.
He said, "I was dealing with these monsters here. What about you, what are you doing here?"
Li Xing Yun said, "Don't even mention it. The hotel I'm staying at is right here. Tonight, for no reason, such a big problem occurred, and I got caught up in it."
"I had no choice, so I had to find a way to fight my way out?"
"I'm exhausted. I've already killed all the monsters to the north. What, are the monsters here all killed by you?"
Wu Tian nodded, then said in surprise, "You actually managed to kill so many monsters?"
"This is not something an ordinary person can do. Could it be that you are a spiritual cultivator?"
Li Xing Yun was also surprised, then realized something and said, "Going by what you're saying, then you're also a spiritual cultivator?"
"Actually, I saw the lightning light up from a distance. So it turns out all of this was your doing!"
"My goodness, you killed all these monsters, you're too amazing!"
Wu Tian gave a wry smile and said, "It seems that we brothers haven't been truly honest with each other. Both of us are spiritual cultivators, yet we've kept it from each other."
Then, he asked with confusion, "But what's your situation now? Didn't you finish dealing with the monsters over there?"
"If that's the case, then how did you end up flying here?"
