Chapter 13108: Self-righteous Woman

Pang Jun felt mixed emotions when he heard this. He secretly glanced at the cool and elegant woman beside him, and an inexplicable sense of security surged in his heart.

He knew that this woman was not only of noble status, but also had extraordinary strength, enough to protect him from Ling Xiao's fatal blow. This knowledge gradually restored his courage, and he sneered, deciding to resist to the end.

"Haha, Ling Xiao, do you think I'm afraid of you? If you have the guts, just do it! You're just dreaming if you want me to betray the person behind you!" Although Pang Jun's voice trembled slightly with fear, the determination in his words was unquestionable.

He closed his eyes tightly, as if he was making a final resistance, or as if he was waiting for the verdict of fate.

Ling Xiao sneered. He knew that he had done his best and given Pang Jun many chances, but the other party chose a path of no return. In this case, there was no need for him to waste any more time.

"Well, since you are so stubborn, then go die." Ling Xiao's voice was calm and indifferent, as if announcing an ending that had already been predetermined.

The voice was cold and confident, like a judgment.

The cold woman had a tense body and exuded a faint chill from her body, like a sword about to be unsheathed. She was fully alert to Ling Xiao's every move.

However, time seemed to freeze at this moment. After a long time without seeing Ling Xiao making any moves, she couldn't help but feel a little confused and uneasy. Just as she was secretly speculating, a dull "thump" suddenly sounded in the room, breaking the original silence.

Following the sound, I saw Pang Jun's body lying on the ground powerlessly, his eyes closed, his face as pale as paper, and he had obviously lost any signs of life.

This scene happened so suddenly that the cold woman was unable to react for a moment. Her eyes narrowed slightly, with complex emotions flashing in them. She was shocked by Pang Jun's sudden death, and deeply dissatisfied with Ling Xiao's methods. A hint of anger quietly emerged on her face.

She turned her head, her eyes piercing towards Ling Xiao like knives, her tone carrying an unignorable chill: "Young Master Ling, is this your style? You are so decisive in doing things, leaving no room for maneuver?" Although her voice was soft, every word was like a heavy hammer, striking everyone's heart.

Ling Xiao remained calm in the face of the woman's questioning, as if all this was within his expectations.

"If you had not set foot here, perhaps he would still have a chance of survival." His voice was calm and deep, and every word revealed an unquestionable firmness.

"It was your arrival that gave him an unrealistic fantasy, making him think he had someone to rely on, and thus missed his last chance. So, in the final analysis, it was his stupidity and your arrogance that led to his tragedy."

When the woman heard this, a blush flashed across her pretty face, which was the shame and resentment after being exposed. She bit her lower lip tightly, trying to refute, but finally fell silent.

Because she knew that although Ling Xiao's words were unpleasant to hear, they made sense. If she hadn't appeared, Pang Jun might have chosen to compromise at the critical moment of life and death and revealed the mastermind behind the scenes. It was her arrival that made Pang Jun mistakenly believe that he had a backer, and eventually went to destruction.

Taking a deep breath, the woman tried to calm her inner turmoil and make her voice sound more steady and powerful.

"Young Master Ling, you have made countless enemies while traveling around the world, but you still don't know how to restrain yourself and often take the initiative to stir up trouble. Do you really think that in this big world, no one can do anything to you?" Her eyes revealed a complexity, which showed both fear of Ling Xiao's strength and confusion and doubt about his style of doing things.

Upon hearing this, Ling Xiao curled up the corners of his mouth into a faint smile, a smile that showed both his indifference to the woman's words and his confidence and composure in his own situation.

He glanced at Pang Xiaojuan beside him, and said casually, "There are indeed countless people who can kill me. But look, am I not still standing here, enjoying the beauty of this world?"

After saying that, his eyes fell on Pang Xiaojuan again, with a hint of not allowing rejection, "Pour the tea!"

Pang Xiaojuan struggled in her heart when she heard this. She secretly glanced at the cold woman. The other party's identity was obviously extraordinary. Even Pang Jun was in awe of her.

This made her feel more concerned and hesitant before taking action. However, Ling Xiao's order forced her to obey, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and carefully pick up the teapot to prepare to pour tea for Ling Xiao.

Seeing this, Ling Xiao sneered, "You big business houses are really ridiculous. I came here with sincerity and wanted to make some deals, but I didn't expect that you would not only not do business, but also want to kill me.

Do you think that the sword in my hand and the knife at my waist are not sharp enough to intimidate you little rascals?"

There was a hint of disdain and sarcasm in his words, as if he was mocking those who tried to challenge his authority, saying that they were overestimating their own abilities.

The cold woman's gaze pierced through the air like a sharp sword, shooting straight at Ling Xiao. Her eyes were burning with rage, as if she wanted to pour out all her dissatisfaction and anger.

"You are so arrogant that I can't help but want to end your life with my own hands!" Her voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth, carrying a threat and determination that could not be ignored.

Facing the woman's angry stare, Ling Xiao seemed unusually calm. He shook his head gently, with a faint smile on his face.

"You can't kill me, that's a fact. As for those people you brought, no matter who they are, including those masters of Tianhe Realm, in my eyes, it's nothing but futile." His tone revealed an extraordinary self-confidence, as if he had already got everything under control.

He slowly looked around, his deep eyes seemed to be able to see through all the secrets in the darkness.

“You’d better stay a hundred steps away from me now, otherwise, I, Ling Xiao, will let you see today what it means to be bleed to death.” Although his voice was light, it contained an irresistible force that made everyone present feel a chill in their hearts.

In this space shrouded in darkness, there is a master of Tianhe Realm hidden. Although he has just entered this realm, his strength is already extraordinary, and compared with Ji Tianyan in the past, he is not much inferior.

However, in Ling Xiao's eyes, the existence of this master did not seem to be enough to pose a real threat. He knew that although he could not compete with the Tianhe Realm masters with conventional means, his endless special means were enough to make any opponent unable to defend themselves.

At this moment, the air was filled with a tense and oppressive atmosphere. Everyone felt the aura that Ling Xiao exuded, which should not be underestimated, and the firmness and determination contained in his words.
