Chapter 12755: Talent? Background? I am stronger!
Ou Luan knew that he had to kill Ling Xiao, otherwise the reputation of the Holy Son Society and his own face would be completely trampled on the ground.

"It's unbelievable that the Tianxiahui actually condoned such a lawless guy. Not only did this guy kill Zhang Luan, he also killed Red Crow, and even worse, he even dared to blackmail Deacon Wang Heng. Any sect that does this should be severely punished."

A disciple in the crowd spoke indignantly, his voice full of dissatisfaction with Ling Xiao and doubts about the Tianxiahui's decision.

Ou Luan listened quietly, his eyes revealing a hint of deep thought.

Suddenly, he glanced at the disciple who spoke and asked calmly, "I know everything you said, but what I want to know is, didn't Zhang Luan and the Red Crow family take any action? Their family's power in the Tianxia Association cannot be underestimated. How could they allow their children to be bullied like this?"

The disciple was speechless when Ou Luan asked him this. At this time, Bai Lian sighed softly, hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to tell Ou Luan some news that the Holy Son Society had recently heard.

"Mr. Ou, the Holy Son Society has indeed received some information about this matter recently." Bai Lian spoke slowly, with a hint of caution in his voice.

"However, these news may also be rumors, and the truth remains to be verified. It is said that after the Tiger Clan leader, the Zhang family's ancestor, and the Red Crow's grandfather learned that their descendants were killed by Ling Xiao, they all went to surround and kill Ling Xiao in anger."

"What's the result?" Ou Luan raised his eyebrows, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes.

"As a result..." Bai Lian paused, as if to organize his thoughts, "The Tiger Clan leader and the Zhang Family ancestor both died in this operation. No one was spared. Although Red Crow's grandfather, Old Crow, survived by chance, he announced that he would go into seclusion after returning to the family and no longer care about worldly affairs."

"What?!" Ou Luan's eyes widened in shock. This news was undoubtedly a huge surprise to him. He thought Zhang Luan and the Red Crow family would avenge him, but he didn't expect the final result to be so tragic.

This made him even more interested in Ling Xiao's strength and background.

"Is there such a thing?" Ou Luan's voice was filled with surprise and confusion. His face instantly became gloomy after hearing the news, as if covered by a thick layer of dark clouds.

He frowned slightly, and an indescribable emotion surged in his heart. This guy named Ling Xiao actually had such a deep background, which was really beyond his expectation.

In the Tianxia Association, strength and background are often equally important. If a person wants to gain a foothold, he must not only have extraordinary talent and strength, but also have the corresponding background support. Ling Xiao's background is obviously not to be underestimated, which makes Ou Luan feel a little pressured.

However, Ouluan is not the kind of person who will be easily crushed by pressure. He has shown extraordinary talent and perseverance since he was a child, and he has overcome many difficulties all the way to reach his current position.

He knew that if he wanted to gain a foothold in the Tianxiahui, he must have extraordinary strength and background. At this moment, he was facing an opponent who also had a strong background and talent, which made him more determined.

"It seems that this guy named Ling Xiao has a strong background." Ou Luan muttered to himself, with a gleam of determination in his eyes, "But I want to see whether it is my background that is strong and my talent that is high, or his background that is strong and his talent that is high!"

"Ou Luan, this matter is of great importance. Can you take a long-term view and make a decision?"

When Ou Luan was lost in thought, an old and hoarse voice suddenly sounded. He looked up and saw an old man with a weathered face standing not far away. It was Old Crow.

This old man is the grandfather of Red Crow, named after his unique crow appearance. He is a prestigious elder in the Tianxia Society.

The old crow looked solemn. He slowly walked towards Ou Luan, revealing a trace of worry in his tone: "Ou Luan, I know you are talented, have a strong background, and are very powerful. But Ling Xiao is extremely mysterious and hidden. His strength and background are far beyond your imagination."

"Even if you become his enemy, I'm afraid you won't be able to gain any advantage, and you may even suffer a great loss. I hope you can consider this carefully."

Ou Luan frowned slightly and glanced at Old Crow calmly, with a hint of doubt in his eyes: "Of course I know Ling Xiao's background, but what I want to know is, who defeated you? As far as I know, although Ling Xiao is strong, I'm afraid he alone is not enough to defeat all of you strong men of the older generation. I think there must be something fishy behind this, right?"

The old crow sighed, nodded and said, "You are right. The one who defeated us was indeed not Ling Xiao himself. He was a being you can't imagine, powerful and mysterious. I don't even dare to mention his name."

"But no matter what, I must remind you that it is not a wise move to be his enemy. You may be able to fight him for a while with your own strength and background, but in the long run, it will not benefit you."

There was a slight tremor in the old crow's voice, and it was obvious that he had a deep fear of that mysterious existence.

He paused and continued, "I came to you today to tell you the truth at great risk. If Ling Xiao knew I was here, my life would be in danger. But I hope you can understand my painstaking efforts and not make the wrong decision because of a momentary impulse."

"Old Crow, I understand that you may have been mentally prepared for the departure of family members. After all, life and death are determined by fate. But you must understand that your grandson's matter is not only related to the honor of your Red Crow family, but also makes our Saint Son Society lose face. We, the Saint Son Society, must regain this face."

Ouluan's voice revealed firmness and unquestionable determination.

He glanced at the old crow calmly and continued, "In terms of background, I come from the Ou family of the Southern Region Holy Hall. This family has a long history and profound heritage, and enjoys a high status in the entire Southern Region."

"In terms of talent, although I am only twenty years old, I have already entered the eighth level of the Primordial Realm. This level of cultivation is already top-notch among my peers. What does Ling Xiao have to compare with me? Background? Does he have it? Talent? What level has he reached?"

“Don’t tell me that there is a bigger background than the Holy Hall Ou family in the entire Southern Region, or that there is any young man who can reach my level of cultivation at the age of twenty.”

After hearing this, the old crow looked solemn. He knew that Ou Luan's background was strong and his talent was high, which was definitely not comparable to that of ordinary people. But he also knew that Ling Xiao was not a simple person, and there were also unknown secrets and powers behind him.
