Chapter 12844: Can't Survive Three Breaths
Ling Xiao knew that this relic was full of unknowns and dangers. Although they had obtained many valuable items from it, the price they paid was also huge. He secretly decided that it would be better for no one to set foot in this place in the future to avoid repeating the same mistakes.
When he stepped out of the Fire Lotus Battleship, the scene in front of him made him frown. The originally quiet battleship was now surrounded by a dense crowd of people, with a total number of more than 10,000 people. Ling Xiao frowned, and anger surged in his heart.
He looked around and found that although they had a lot of people, they were still outnumbered compared to the team of more than 10,000 people.
Fortunately, the battleship they purchased had been carefully modified and its defense was extremely strong. With Tuoba Tian, a puppet at the peak of the martial soul realm, in charge, their team was able to withstand the opponent's attack and no casualties occurred for the time being.
However, even so, Ling Xiao was still furious. He knew very well that these besiegers obviously had some ulterior motives. They not only wanted to rob their spoils, but were also likely to threaten their personal safety.
"President!"
Seeing Ling Xiao finally return, everyone felt relieved. Their faces gradually calmed down after the previous tension and anxiety. Although there were many masters among them, they were still not strong enough compared to the fierce opponents on the opposite side. It would be of no benefit for them to fight hard.
But they understood that only by waiting for Ling Xiao's arrival would they have hope of leaving safely.
Ling Xiao's eyes swept around and noticed the flag hanging on the opposite warship. It was the symbol of the Southern Domain Holy Temple, a golden emblem that symbolized power and majesty. A fierce murderous intent flashed in his eyes, as if he wanted to tear the golden emblem on the flag apart.
"Is it someone from the Southern Domain Holy Temple?" Ling Xiao's voice was low and cold, as if it carried endless chill.
Mu Qingping stood beside Ling Xiao. She clearly felt the murderous intent from Ling Xiao, so she quickly explained, "Yes, President. Because I knew you were inside, I didn't let them in. But they didn't take us seriously at all and planned to attack directly."
"I don't think they care." Ling Xiao sneered, his tone full of disdain and ridicule. He continued: "The people of the Holy Temple have always been so arrogant and insolent. In their eyes, I'm afraid only their own interests are the most important."
He turned to look at the crowd, his voice firm and powerful: "Okay, let's go. Since they want to go in, let them go. We have already got what we wanted, there is no need to entangle with them anymore."
Ling Xiao's heart was filled with a cold smile, and his eyes flashed with cunning and indifference. He wanted to let the people of the Southern Region Holy Hall go in and die. This was his plan and his purpose.
He knew clearly that only those green monsters were wandering inside the ruins. They were like demons crawling out of hell, bloodthirsty and cruel. Those people from the Southern Domain Holy Temple, with their greed and arrogance, thought they could easily obtain the treasures inside, but they didn't know that they were walking step by step towards the abyss of death.
The Black Tortoise Demon Puppet that had just saved his life in the ruins had now been taken out of the dangerous area. Without this powerful guardian, the people of the Southern Domain Holy Temple were like snails that had lost their protective shells, exposed to the fangs of those green monsters.
Ling Xiao's eyes were filled with indifference. He did not feel a single sympathy for the people from the Southern Region Holy Hall. They wanted to die, would he stop them? What he wanted was to let them reap what they sowed and experience endless fear and despair.
Even though those monsters took away a lot of items, Ling Xiao did not feel a bit of pity. Because he knew that with their current strength, they could not compete with those monsters at all. Even if they had a powerful guardian like the Black Tortoise Demon Puppet, it was just a drop in the bucket under the siege of those green monsters and could not change the final outcome.
Therefore, Ling Xiao didn't feel sorry at all. He looked coldly at the people from the Southern Region Holy Hall, as if he was watching a tragedy about to unfold.
"I understand!" Mu Qingping nodded, her eyes gleaming with wisdom. She knew Ling Xiao very well, and he was definitely not the kind of person who would let his enemies go easily. Since he let the other party in, there must be an unfathomable conspiracy behind it.
"Helmsman, adjust the course, we are off!" Ling Xiao's voice was firm and decisive, and he gave a clear order to the helmsman. When everyone on the warship heard this order, they immediately started to get busy and prepare to set off.
However, just as the warship was about to set sail, a figure suddenly appeared in front of it. It was a disciple of the Southern Region Holy Hall, who was about thirty years old, with a stern face and a powerful aura.
His cultivation reached the sixth level of the Primordial Realm. Although he was not the best in the Southern Region Saint Hall, he was definitely the strongest among the strong in a place like the Tianxia Shangyuan. You should know that Ou Luan, who ranked fifth in the Tianxia Shangyuan, only had the seventh level of the Primordial Realm.
Ling Xiao frowned slightly. He didn't expect that someone from the Southern Region Holy Hall would show up at this time. He stared at the Holy Hall disciple, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes. This Holy Hall disciple was obviously not here to see him off, but did it on purpose.
"We have already let you in, why are you still blocking our warship?" Ling Xiao's voice was cold and stern. He stared at the disciple of the Holy Temple with a hint of threat in his tone. He knew that there had always been competition and conflict between the Southern Region Holy Temple and the Tianxia Association, but the two sides had always maintained a delicate balance.
If this disciple of the Holy Temple really dared to take action here, it would undoubtedly break this balance and trigger a full-scale conflict between the two sides.
The man's face darkened and he snorted coldly, his voice full of unquestionable majesty: "Stop talking nonsense, you just came out of the ruins, what did you take? Hand it over! Otherwise, you will not be able to leave this place today!"
Hearing this, Ling Xiao raised a trace of disdain at the corner of his mouth. He glanced at the disciple from the Holy Temple with a cold light flashing in his eyes. He sneered: "Humph, how ridiculous. Don't say that I didn't take anything from there. Even if I really took it, who are you? What right do you have to threaten me?" His words were full of contempt, and it was obvious that he didn't care about the threat from the disciple from the Holy Temple.
"If you don't want the Tianxiahui to go to war with the Holy Temple, you won't survive more than three breaths with your current attitude."
"You!" The disciple's face turned red with anger at Ling Xiao's words. Perhaps he was used to being arrogant and domineering in the Southern Region Holy Hall, and rarely encountered people who dared to offend him like this. At this moment, the rage in his heart was burning fiercely, and he could no longer hold it back. He took a step forward, and a powerful aura burst out from him.
