Chapter 12699: Bowing Your Head Will Die
"Haha, your reason is really not valid at all." Ling Xiao sneered and retorted: "As far as I know, the number of warriors who died during the official assessment of Tianxiahui was at least 8,000, if not 10,000. I haven't seen you guys intervene in the killings during that time, and now you're telling me you want to stop it? What a joke."
He paused and continued, "Besides, just now it was your useless son who tried to steal my Immortality Grass, and not only did you not stop him, you even condoned him. You guys are so awesome, what's wrong with you now? Are you scared? Are you telling me the rules?"
The elder tiger-headed man's face turned pale and blue at Ling Xiao's words. He roared, "Boy, don't think you are so powerful just because you took advantage of me. I just underestimated the enemy."
"Haha, you underestimate the enemy? Now, pick up your weapon and fight. I'll give you a chance."
Ling Xiao's bloodthirsty sword spirit pointed at the other party and laughed contemptuously. His eyes revealed a strong sense of confidence and challenge, as if saying: "Don't you think you are very powerful? Then come and give it a try."
However, the tiger-headed man hesitated at this moment. He felt the powerful aura and confidence emanating from Ling Xiao, which made him begin to doubt whether his strength could really defeat this seemingly ordinary young man.
Ling Xiao's attack just now was too strong. Although he did underestimate his enemy, the young man in front of him was definitely not ordinary. If he really fought, if he lost again, he would be too ashamed to face others.
He was full of contradictions. On the one hand, he wanted to maintain his dignity and authority, but on the other hand, he was afraid of the shame and consequences of failure.
"Haha, if you don't do it, then I will!"
Ling Xiao swung the long sword in his hand and was about to attack, but suddenly stopped.
"What are you doing!"
Another figure appeared, it was the Deacon Liu who had brought Ling Xiao to take the test before.
Ling Xiao smiled slightly, clasped his fists and said, "Deacon Liu, is it the rule of the Tianxia Association that deacons can interfere with the assessment at will? Your deacon from the Tiger Tribe not only wants to take away my Immortal Grass, but also wants to kill me. What do you think we should do?"
He was not afraid of the Immortal Grass being exposed. This kind of thing was rare only for those in the Immortal Realm. It was very likely that someone like Deacon Liu would not find it rare.
What's more, even if he didn't say it, the tiger-headed man would still say it. If he said it out loud, we can see what kind of person Deacon Liu is.
"Tiger King! Is what he said true?"
Deacon Liu looked at the tiger-headed man and frowned.
"Humph, my son just wanted a plant of immortal grass, but he killed my son. Liu Yu, what do you think we should do about this?"
The tiger-headed man snorted coldly.
Liu Yu frowned and sighed helplessly, "Hu Jing, we are colleagues. I want to side with you, but this assessment is supervised throughout. If the higher-ups knew that I was cheating for personal gain, I'm afraid it would be hard for both of us to explain."
Hu Jing's face turned cold. Hearing this, he knew that Liu Yu would never let him take action here.
In addition, he was not completely sure that he could kill Ling Xiao, so he looked at Ling Xiao coldly and said, "Boy, you'd better not join the Tianxia Association, otherwise, I will let you know what regret is."
Immediately, he turned and left.
Liu Yu sighed and looked at Ling Xiao with a hint of helplessness and worry in his eyes.
After Hu Jing's burly figure completely disappeared from his sight, he slowly spoke, with a hint of admonition in his voice:
"Little guy, why did you provoke him? If he wants the Buxi Grass, just give it to him. You should understand that you haven't officially become a member of the Tianxia Association yet, so we will most likely side with him. If the Tianxia Association didn't have strict rules, I'm afraid I would have been forced to choose not to stop him if he wanted to kill you just now."
After hearing this, Ling Xiao's eyes remained firm and deep. He glanced at Liu Yu lightly, with a hint of imperceptible approval in his eyes.
It's not that he doesn't understand the ways of the world. Liu Yu's straightforwardness and honesty made him feel a little bit of favor towards this seemingly ordinary deacon. He said softly: "Deacon Liu, it's come to this point. There's no point in saying more. He can't kill me. This is a fact."
Liu Yu was slightly stunned. He looked at Ling Xiao's calm and confident face, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart.
He did not witness the battle just now, but he could sense the unusual aura emanating from Ling Xiao. He took a deep breath and tried to make his voice sound calm: "Little guy, you don't have to continue to take the test."
Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows, seeming a little surprised by Liu Yu's words. He asked, "Oh? Are you trying to drive me away?"
Liu Yu shook his head and smiled. He explained, "You misunderstood. I didn't mean to drive you away. Your performance is outstanding enough. You have passed the entrance examination. Now, follow me to Tianxiahui. That is the stage where you can truly show your talent."
After hearing this, Ling Xiao raised a faint smile.
He nodded and said, "I see. I thought I was going to be kicked out again for some unfounded reason." There was a hint of teasing in his voice, but more of it was expectation and confidence in the future.
He had always been resentful about being kicked out of the War Academy, and only after the War Academy was destroyed did he feel a little better.
"Alas, I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse to let you join the Tianxiahui." Liu Yu sighed and said, "I have seen people like you. You think highly of yourself, but you are unwilling to bow your head. You are always competitive in everything. With such a character, most people will die young. I hope you can change your temper."
"In life, we must be able to bend and stretch, and it's okay to suffer a little loss."
"I'm sorry, I've been like this for a while."
Ling Xiao said.
"Will you die if you bow your head?"
Liu Yu was speechless.
"meeting!"
Ling Xiao nodded and said, "It will make me depressed to death, and my martial arts will completely reach a bottleneck. My way is to move forward courageously."
"That's all, you're all stubborn asses!"
Liu Yu stopped talking nonsense and led Ling Xiao forward.
Along the way, Ling Xiao could feel many terrifying auras staring at him in secret, which made him very uncomfortable, but it also made him clearly realize the power of the Tianxiahui.
If Tianxiahui is already like this, then wouldn’t the Southern Domain Holy Temple, which is even more terrifying than Tianxiahui, be even more terrifying?
Low profile!
Still have to keep a low profile!
He never wants to cause trouble, he just hopes that trouble won't cause him trouble.
In just a quarter of an hour or so, the two had reached the top of the mountain.
On the top of the mountain stands a magnificent building - Tianxiahui. It stands tall and majestic, like an invincible giant, overlooking the world below the mountain.
The appearance of Tianxiahui is simple and elegant, and the walls are made of dark stone, which looks heavy and solemn.
Under the sunlight, the surface of the stone has a faint luster, revealing a sense of vicissitudes of time. (End of this chapter)
