Chapter 13100 This is a misunderstanding
Hearing this, Ling Xiao curled up the corner of his mouth into a faint sneer, a smile that showed both a clear understanding of reality and absolute confidence in his own abilities.
"Haha, if that's the case, then it doesn't matter. It's just one more name on the list. Since I embarked on the path of cultivation, enemies have been following me like a shadow. I'm used to it.
One more enemy, one less friend, it doesn't make much difference to me. Moreover, I didn't take the woman's life, which is a kind of tolerance, a right to choose for the Sitong Trading Company."
He paused, his eyes gleaming with an unquestionable light.
"My senior Demon Soul King, you don't need to worry too much. Although there are many powerful people in this Demon Suppression Mansion, the strongest one is only at the Tianhe Realm.
Although I dare not say that I am invincible, I can at least ensure that I will not be bullied in this land. I have my pride and my bottom line, and anyone who tries to trample on it will have to pay the price. "
Ling Xiao's words revealed an inviolable majesty, a kind of tenacity and confidence that came from going through hardships and trials.
He knows very well that a truly strong person is not one who never faces challenges, but one who can stay true to himself and move forward courageously when faced with challenges.
And he is such a strong man. No matter how bumpy the road ahead is, he will greet every unknown tomorrow with a fearless attitude.
"What should we do with Fu Zun Mansion?" The voice of the Demon Soul King sounded in Ling Xiao's mind again, with a serious tone in his voice.
"This is the Demon Suppression City, with strict rules and order. Your actions today, killing people and stealing treasures, although there are reasons, have violated the taboos here after all. The Mansion of the Supreme Being, as an authority to maintain peace in the city, they will not turn a blind eye, let alone sit idly by."
Hearing this, Ling Xiao raised a disdainful smile, his eyes flashing with determination and confidence.
"What are you afraid of? We are right. It was Sitong Trading Company that took action first. If they really dare to confuse right and wrong and act unreasonably, it would give me a legitimate reason. What's more, my good brother is the young master of Fuzun Mansion. They have to consider this relationship. Can they really let me suffer a loss?"
At this point, Ling Xiao's tone was filled with pride, which was the confidence in his own strength and the trust in the support behind him. He knew very well that in this world where the strong are respected, sometimes background and relationships are equally important.
The Demon Soul King sighed softly in the magic needle space, as if he felt both helpless and relieved about Ling Xiao's style of doing things.
"I actually forgot about this... You always find someone to rely on at critical moments. However, don't rely too much on these external forces. Your own strength is the foundation.
In short, no matter what, you have to remember that I only have nine chances to escape, this is the limit. You should try to revive the Demon King first, his power will be a huge help to you. In this way, you will be safer in this Demon Suppression City. "
"Yes, I know." Ling Xiao nodded slightly, a glimmer of understanding flashed in his eyes, but then his steps seemed to be pulled by some invisible force and he paused involuntarily. There was a subtle sense of tension in the air, as if foreshadowing something extraordinary that was about to happen.
In front of us, a figure appeared quietly, like two different landscapes converging in this street.
A man and a woman, each with their own unique postures, together they formed an existence that could not be ignored. Ling Xiao was naturally familiar with the woman, as she was the female shopkeeper of the Sitong Commercial Bank who was known for her tenacity.
At this moment, although her hands were wrapped in white bandages to cover the bloody traces, the afterimage of the broken arm still cast a layer of faint sadness and unyieldingness on her beauty. In her eyes, there was both helplessness towards the past and determination for the future.
The man standing shoulder to shoulder with her had a completely different look. He was old, with snow-white hair and a foot-long beard that fluttered in the wind, revealing a calmness and majesty that came with years of experience.
His eyes were deep, as if he could see into people's hearts, yet they were also somewhat gentle, making it difficult to resist his charm.
"Come for revenge?" Ling Xiao raised his lips with a playful smile, his eyes moved between the two men, finally settling on the old man's face. In that smile, there was both speculation about the old man's intentions and a hint of confidence in his own strength.
Hearing this, the old man shook his head slightly, a bitter smile appearing on his face.
"Young Master Ling, why do you have to mock me like this? With my strength, how could I possibly kill a man like you who is among the best?"
His voice was gentle yet powerful, revealing a kind of indifference and self-knowledge that comes from having experienced many hardships.
"I am Qian Xuejin, the chief manager of the Sitong Commercial Bank in Zhenmofu. I manage sixty branches in Zhenmofu City. This is my daughter Qian Yingying. I am not here for personal revenge, but to express my apologies to you, young hero."
Qian Xuejin's words were full of sincerity. His words were not only explaining his purpose, but also seemed to put an end to the previous conflict.
"Apologize?" Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He didn't expect that this seemingly dignified old man would express his apology so directly. This tact and open-mindedness made him look up to him.
"Haha, you're too polite, Manager Qian." Ling Xiao chuckled, and the wariness in his heart dissipated a little.
He looked up at a pub not far away. The quaint sign glowed warmly in the setting sun, as if inviting passers-by.
"In that case, why don't we go to the tavern, have a drink and talk about this misunderstanding?" He said as he made a gesture of invitation, his movements graceful and natural.
"Please!" Qian Xuejin also responded with a polite gesture, and the three of them immediately walked into the tavern.
Inside the pub, warm yellow lights fill every corner, creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere.
They were led into an elegant private room. Outside the window was a bustling street, and inside the window was the conversation that the three of them were about to have, an exchange about reconciliation and understanding.
"My Sitong Company has no intention of being an enemy to Young Hero. The attack on Young Hero Ling was entirely the personal intention of this useless daughter of mine. It has nothing to do with our Sitong Company."
Qian Xuejin clasped his fists and said, his tone revealed a bit of sincerity and helplessness, his eyes flashed with deep reflection on past events and a little blame for his daughter's behavior.
Every detail of his movements seemed so solemn, as if he was expressing his apology and respect for Ling Xiao in this way.
Hearing this, Ling Xiao's lips curled up into a faint smile, his eyes flashing with tolerance and understanding. He said softly: "So, this is just a misunderstanding."
As he spoke, he seemed to have let go of the unpleasant past, showing an extraordinary open-mindedness.
