Chapter 13427 Uneasy

Chapter 13427 Uneasy
Ling Xiao could feel that Tong Tong was in an abnormal state at the moment. Although the power she burst out was enough to shake the world, behind this power, there was a kind of palpitating uneasiness. Ling Xiao's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible big hand, and the pain was unbearable.

Tongtong's voice seemed intermittent in the wind and sand, as if it could be blown away by the wind at any time. Her tone contained both her attachment to Lingxiao and her deep hatred for the high priest.

Her words revealed a sense of determination and tragedy, as if she had already made preparations for the worst and was ready to use her own life to clear the obstacles for Ling Xiao.

"Daddy, Tongtong helped you kill the bad guy...Tongtong...Tongtong may be leaving soon, so please take care of yourself in the future, Daddy."

These words, like a sharp blade, pierced Ling Xiao's heart fiercely. His eyes instantly moistened and his voice became choked. He looked at Tong Tong's gradually blurred figure, his heart filled with helplessness and despair.

How he wished that he could bear all this on behalf of Tongtong, how he wished that this was all just a nightmare and after waking up, Tongtong would still be safe and sound by his side.

"No, I can deal with this old guy. Tongtong, there's no need for you to do this." Ling Xiao was anxious, with a hint of hysteria in his voice.

"It's okay, Dad. If we are destined to meet again, we will meet again." Tongtong forced a smile, which was filled with relief and comfort, as if she was using her last bit of strength to wipe away the haze in Ling Xiao's heart.

Although her eyes seemed a little dim due to excessive consumption of strength, the flickering light in them was like the brightest star in the night sky, warm and firm.

Ling Xiao looked at Tongtong with mixed feelings in his heart. He sighed, and that sigh contained both helplessness about Tongtong's current situation and gratitude that she was able to survive.

He understood that although Tongtong looked weak at the moment, the tenacity and hope revealed in her words made him believe that they would meet again one day. This belief, like a warm current, slowly flowed into his heart, gradually dispelling the haze in his heart.

But at the same time, Ling Xiao couldn't help but feel reluctant. During this period of time, they had fought side by side, practiced together, and experienced countless hardships. However, now they had to face separation, which made him feel extremely lost and regretful.

How he wished that he could spend more time with Tongtong, watching her grow and laugh. But now, all this has become a luxury.

He suddenly turned his gaze to the high priest, his eyes filled with anger and determination.

He spoke word by word, "Old man, I advise you to kneel down and beg for mercy now! Otherwise, you will die without a burial place!" His voice echoed between heaven and earth like thunder, with unquestionable majesty and power.

However, the high priest just shook his head slightly with a scornful smile on his face.

He said slowly, "Dead without a burial place? You have made the biggest joke of my life! Although the little girl is powerful, I can see that she can't hold on for long. Isn't it ridiculous that you want me to beg for mercy?"

His tone was full of confidence and arrogance, as if he had already secured victory and did not take Ling Xiao's threat seriously at all.

"fool!"

Ling Xiao shook his head gently, with a complex emotion in his eyes: "I just don't want Tongtong to leave. She...she is so pure and innocent in my heart, but now, this innocence has to be covered with sharp armor. With her current strength, killing you is as easy as taking something out of a bag for her, but she doesn't want to, and I don't want to see that day either."

"Daddy," Tongtong's voice was filled with reluctance and determination. She smiled warmly, and that smile showed both her vision for the future and her deep attachment to the man in front of her. "We will definitely meet again. No matter how far apart we are, no matter how time passes, I will always be your good daughter, and the longing for home in my heart will never change."

After saying that, she slowly turned around and looked at the Templar coalition forces behind the high priest with a gentle but firm gaze. There was no fear in her eyes, only a desire for peace and a rejection of violence.

"Dad doesn't like me killing people, and I don't like fighting and killing. I know very well that behind every battle are the broken hearts and tears of countless families. So, if you leave now, you can still save your lives and choose peace instead of endless hatred and killing."

The high priest's laughter echoed in the empty venue, with a hint of sarcasm and disdain:
"Little girl, you are indeed the most arrogant person I have ever seen. The confidence and arrogance revealed in your words are simply unbelievable. I hope that your strength can be as you say, and truly worthy of your arrogance! Otherwise, I am afraid that there will be no place for you in this world."

As the voice fell, he suddenly raised his hand and pointed his finger downwards. This action seemed casual, but it contained endless majesty and depth.

At that moment, it seemed as if the entire starry sky was trembling, and then, a ray of cold light shot down from the vast starry sky, like a meteor that streaked across the night sky, silently, without any power fluctuations, but with a chill that made people's souls tremble.

The moment they saw this ray of cold light, the expressions of Jiang Xiruo and others became extremely solemn. Their eyes were fixed on the cold light, with both shock and uneasiness in their eyes.

"This old guy... actually has something hidden." Jiang Xiruo bit her lower lip tightly, her voice low and firm, her eyes revealing an indescribable complex emotion.

"He never used his full strength against us, because he looked down on us from the bottom of his heart, thinking that we were just a group of ants that could be easily destroyed. After all, we were too weak, so weak that he didn't even have the qualifications to take us seriously. Tongtong..."

At this point, Jiang Xiruo's voice trembled slightly, and her eyes revealed deep worry and uneasiness.

She clearly remembered the overwhelming power that Tongtong displayed when she burst out in an instant, a power that was enough to shake the whole world. However, facing this high priest who also hid his strength, could Tongtong really gain the upper hand?
Jiang Xiruo's gaze turned to the cold light again, her heart filled with contradictions and struggles.

She hoped that Tongtong could defeat this powerful enemy and prove her strength and value; but she was also afraid that Tongtong would be hurt in this battle, or even... She didn't dare to think about it anymore and could only pray silently, hoping that everything would develop in the best direction.

Ling Xiao looked up, his eyes fixed on Tongtong in the sky. His face was slightly stiff due to nervousness, and his eyes revealed concern and worry that could not be concealed.
