Chapter 12730 It turns out that you are the one who instigated behind the scenes

Ling Xiao felt Wang Heng's terrifying power and frowned slightly. But despite this, he still did not intend to use his trump card. He knew that his trump card was the last guarantee and could not be easily exposed.

He took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with determination. He knew that Wang Heng was much stronger than him, but that didn't mean he had no chance. He had rich combat experience and unique combat skills, which were the key to his victory over his opponent.

Fighting under such a disadvantage is very beneficial to Ling Xiao's growth. He understands that only by fighting with the strong can he continuously improve his strength. If he just keeps crushing the weak, then over time, he will forget the feeling of fighting with the strong and lose the motivation to move forward.

Therefore, Ling Xiao did not retreat, he rushed forward to meet Wang Heng's attack. His figure drew a graceful arc in the air, and the bloodthirsty sword soul and the god-killing sword soul in his hands were swung out at the same time, colliding with Wang Heng's attack.

The roar sounded again, and the battle between the two became more intense. Although Ling Xiao was at a disadvantage, he relied on his firm will and unique fighting skills to constantly fight with Wang Heng, looking for opportunities to counterattack.

Just as he was about to let go and do something big, Ling Xiao suddenly saw a figure flashing before his eyes, appearing in front of him like a ghost. He looked up and saw a serious-looking elder staring coldly at him and Wang Heng.

"Wang Heng, that's enough!"

The voice of the person who came was deep and powerful, and every word seemed to carry unquestionable majesty. Ling Xiao was stunned for a moment. He did not know this person, and he was very surprised by his appearance. He did not know why this person would intervene in their fight at this moment.

"Elder Liucheng!"

When Wang Heng saw this man, his face changed, and he quickly stopped attacking and bowed respectfully. He explained: "This man killed Zhang Luan when he just joined the sect, which is an unforgivable crime. I did not attack him without reason."

After hearing this, Elder Liucheng frowned slightly. His eyes swept between Ling Xiao and Wang Heng, and finally stopped on Wang Heng.

He snorted coldly and said, "If you had stopped this dispute at the beginning, there would definitely not be the current consequences. Zhang Luan's death was deserved. He relied on his strength to bully new disciples at will. Such behavior should not be tolerated. His death can also be regarded as a lesson for other disciples. Don't bully others at will just because you have some strength."

"But..." Wang Heng wanted to explain, but Elder Liucheng didn't want to listen anymore. He waved his hand and interrupted Wang Heng: "As for his elders, I will explain it myself. You should withdraw now and don't bother with this matter anymore."

"Subordinates take orders!"

Although he was very unhappy and puzzled, Wang Heng did not dare to act rashly in front of Liu Cheng and could only nod.

"You go back." Liu Cheng looked at Ling Xiao deeply, with a bit of helplessness and sigh in his tone. He continued: "After the fourth dean learned about this, he specially asked me to check it out, but I didn't expect it to be too late. Alas, you... forget it, I can't say much, you go back."

Liu Cheng felt helpless. He knew that although Zhang Luan was at fault, Ling Xiao was a bold and straightforward person with a style of doing things that was not bound by conventions. He was fearless.

This kind of character makes him always dare to stand up and challenge authority when faced with injustice, but it also makes it easy for him to get into trouble.

"Disciple, I'll take my leave!" Ling Xiao heard Liu Cheng's words and instantly understood the reason. He knew that the Fourth Dean was afraid that he would cause trouble in the Upper House, so he specially asked Liu Cheng to come, but who would have thought it was too late.

He didn't say much, just nodded to Liu Cheng, then moved and flew away. His back drew a graceful arc in the air and soon disappeared into the distance.

"Wang Heng, let me remind you that Ling Xiao has a special identity, and the power behind him is far beyond your imagination. You'd better not provoke him easily, lest you get into trouble. That's all I have to say, you should take care of yourself."

There was a hint of seriousness in Liu Cheng's voice. He looked at Wang Heng again, shook his head, and turned away.

After Liu Cheng and Ling Xiao disappeared from sight, a pretty figure walked out from the crowd. It was Bai Lian who had gone to cause trouble for Ling Xiao that day.

She walked up to Wang Heng, bowed slightly, and said with some apology in her tone: "Deacon Wang, I'm sorry that you have been wronged. What happened today was really beyond our expectations."

Wang Heng waved his hand, signaling her not to be polite. He sighed and said, "I'm fine, but this Ling Xiao... he is definitely not simple. To be able to let the elders of Liucheng come out to defend him personally, his background must be very powerful."

"Besides, I see that he acts boldly and completely disregards the consequences. We'd better not provoke such a person easily. Otherwise, once he is angered, he will really dare to kill people!"

Bai Lian was also shocked when she heard this. She recalled the time when she went to trouble Ling Xiao, and she couldn't help but feel a little scared. She nodded and said, "I understand, Steward Wang, I will inform Mr. Ou about this matter, and he will handle it himself."

Wang Heng nodded when he heard this and said, "If Young Master Ou is willing to come forward, that would be the best. With his strength, it will be no problem for him to deal with Ling Xiao. However, we still need to be strategic, otherwise we may run into trouble."

"Haha, I've long seen that there's someone backing that idiot Zhang Luan." Ling Xiao's voice echoed in the empty space, with a bit of contempt and disdain. His words were like a sharp blade, piercing the hearts of everyone present.

Suddenly, Ling Xiao, who was supposed to have left, appeared out of nowhere like a ghost and stood coldly in front of everyone.

His appearance was like a flash of lightning that broke through the night sky, startling everyone. Wang Heng's heart was pounding, as he had not noticed Ling Xiao's approach at all. This made him re-evaluate Ling Xiao's strength.

"Bai Lian, it turns out that you, a bitch, are the one who instigated this behind the scenes." Ling Xiao's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, staring straight at Bai Lian, his tone full of coldness. His words were like sharp knives, ruthlessly cutting into Bai Lian's heart.

Bai Lian trembled all over when she was looked at by Ling Xiao. She felt a fear she had never felt before. She knew that Ling Xiao was warning her and teaching her a lesson. She lowered her head quickly, not daring to look Ling Xiao in the eye.

Ling Xiao looked at Bai Lian's embarrassed appearance, with a mocking smile on his face. He touched his chin and fell into deep thought. Suddenly, his eyebrows raised, as if he had thought of something.

"Mr. Ou? This name sounds familiar." Ling Xiao muttered to himself, "Could he be from the Ou family of the Southern Region Holy Hall? I didn't expect that a place like Tianxiahui would have someone from the Holy Hall interfering. This is really a surprise."
