Chapter 12760 Just admit it

Ou Luan, the talented disciple who was known as one of the top five in the upper house, had already arrived at the life and death stage. He sat in a corner of the stage with his eyes closed, as if he had some kind of mysterious connection with the world.

A faint white aura surrounded his body, which was his internal energy slowly flowing, demonstrating his profound cultivation.

Around Ou Luan, thousands of members of the Holy Son Society stood on the clouds.

They were all elite disciples in the Tianxia Association, and they were full of anticipation and attention for this duel. They discussed and speculated about the outcome of the duel, while also cheering for Ou Luan.

In addition to the disciples of the Holy Son Society, countless spectators also came here. Some of them were disciples of the Upper and Lower Houses, and some were martial arts enthusiasts who came from all over the place.

They were either standing on the clouds or sitting on distant mountains, their eyes focused on the life and death stage, looking forward to the start of this showdown.

The four deans were also here. They stood on the high platform, their eyes deep and solemn. This duel was not only about the life and death of the two disciples, but also about the honor and dignity of the Tianxia Association.

Therefore, they had to come and pay attention. They hoped that this duel would show the demeanor and strength of the disciples of Tianxiahui, and they also hoped that this duel would become a good story in the history of Tianxiahui.

"Why hasn't that kid come yet? Did he forget about the fight today?"

On the top of the mountain where the four presidents of the Tianxia Association were located, the atmosphere seemed a bit tense and depressing. The four presidents represented the four forces in the Tianxia Association, and they each led one side, but today, their eyes were all focused on the young man who had not yet appeared - Ling Xiao.

The third dean frowned slightly and looked up at the sky. The sun had quietly set and the sky was dyed a light orange-red.

He secretly calculated in his mind that nearly half an hour had passed since the duel agreed upon with Ling Xiao and Ou Luan.

He couldn't help but start to worry. Why didn't Ling Xiao show up yet? Did he encounter an accident? Or did he really forget about today's important duel?

"Humph, it would be better if he didn't come." The Second Dean spoke coldly, breaking the silence. A trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, "It means he is scared and afraid of Ou Luan. In this way, the big problem we are facing will naturally be solved."

His words were full of contempt and ridicule for Ling Xiao.

The four deans actually did not want to see the bloody fight between Ling Xiao and Ou Luan.

They knew very well that no matter who won or lost this duel, it would have a huge impact on the Tianxia Association.

If Ling Xiao loses, his position in the Tianxia Association will plummet, and he may even lose his life; and if Ou Luan loses, the forces behind him will also be severely damaged. Such a result will not benefit the Tianxia Association in any way.

Therefore, they originally hoped that Ling Xiao would voluntarily give up the duel, or at least postpone it to a more appropriate time. However, it now seems that Ling Xiao does not have such an intention.

"What a pity, here he comes!"

At this moment, the voice of the Grand Dean suddenly rang out, breaking the silence. He pointed to the mountain path in the distance, and saw a figure rushing towards them.

"Sorry, sorry, I kept you all waiting for so long. I just came out of quarantine and almost forgot the time..." Having said that, Ling Xiao straightened his slightly messy collar and apologized to the people waiting there with a smile.

His gaze finally settled on Ou Luan who was standing on the life and death stage, and he teased with a hint of joking, "You are such a fool. Couldn't you find someone to remind me? I almost missed this long-awaited duel."

Ou Luan's face darkened slightly when he heard this, and he couldn't help but roll his eyes, as if responding to Ling Xiao's teasing.

He thought: "Why should I send someone to remind you? You forgot the time yourself, how can you blame me?" But Ou Luan did not say these words out loud, he knew very well that the verbal confrontation at this moment would only increase the tension between them.

He spoke coldly, without a trace of emotion in his voice: "Stop talking nonsense, now that you are here, just get on stage. However, I remind you again, once you step onto this life and death stage, life and death are determined by fate, and wealth and honor are in the hands of God. No matter what the result is, whoever dies is not allowed to blame the other party."

Hearing this, Ling Xiao raised a disdainful smile. He strode onto the life and death stage and looked directly at Ou Luan.

He said calmly, "Stop it. People in your temple change their attitude faster than turning the pages of a book. It's a life-and-death battle. If I kill you, I guess they won't let me go easily. So, there's no point in saying this."

There was a hint of contempt and sarcasm in Ling Xiao's words, and it was obvious that he did not agree with the Holy Temple's style of doing things.

When Ou Luan heard this, his face became even gloomier, but he did not get angry. He just stared at Ling Xiao coldly, as if he could see through him.

The atmosphere between the two of them instantly became tense, and the people watching the fight around them also felt the tension. They knew that this duel was not only about the life and death of the two of them, but also an important contest between the two major forces.

The corners of Ou Luan's mouth twitched involuntarily, and his eyes flashed with anger and shock that were difficult to conceal.

He stared at Ling Xiao, his voice trembling with anger: "What a vulgar fellow! Ou Jun and the others, those two brilliant geniuses of my clan, the elites who went to the northern border for training, were killed by you?"

Ling Xiao nodded gently, without too much excuse or cover-up, he admitted lightly: "Well, I guess so."

Ling Xiao naturally knew what Ou Jun and the other person had done. They acted recklessly in the Northern Frontier, relying on their talents and backgrounds to defile countless innocent women. However, these two idiots found Xiao Lianzhu and wanted to take advantage of her, but were killed by Xiao Lianzhu on the spot.

It can be said that this is what he deserved and he deserved to die!

However, Ling Xiao did not tell Ou Luan about these things. He knew that once these things were revealed, Xiao Lianzhu would inevitably be involved in the dispute. He did not want her to suffer any unnecessary trouble because of him.

"Just admit it!" Ou Luan's voice was filled with coldness and hatred.

He stared at Ling Xiao angrily, as if there were flames burning in his eyes: "Do you think that you can do whatever you want and ignore our Holy Hall just because you dominate the Northern Frontier? I tell you, you are wrong! The strength of our Holy Hall is far beyond your imagination. Today, you must pay the price for this!"

As soon as Ou Luan finished speaking, a powerful aura burst out from him.

The air around him seemed to freeze, giving people a feeling of oppression and suffocation.

However, Ling Xiao seemed not to feel this momentum. He still stood there, looking at Ou Luan calmly, as if all this was within his expectations.
