Chapter 13533 Must die
Chapter 13533 Must die
Yu Haoran's face became increasingly gloomy. He clenched his teeth and two sharp rays of light shot out of his eyes.
Although he was not afraid of Chongtian and knew that his strength was not inferior to that of the other party, it was undoubtedly as difficult as ascending to heaven and almost an impossible task to kill Ling Xiao under Chongtian's strict protection.
Just as Yu Haoran was about to open his mouth to refute and look for a solution, Elder Xuan Yue suddenly interrupted and said:
"Elder Chongtian, you are also an elder of a sect. It is best for us not to interfere in the affairs between the younger generations. Let the younger generations solve their grievances and hatreds by themselves, how about that? We, as elders, just need to watch from the sidelines and give guidance and lessons when appropriate."
There was a sense of peace and wisdom in Xuan Yue's words, as if she was trying to calm down the conflict that was about to break out.
Yu Haoran's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately had an idea in his mind. He realized that since he couldn't just ask Chongtian to give up protecting Lingxiao, he might as well change his mindset and make it difficult for Chongtian to interfere in the matter to some extent.
In this way, he might be able to find an opportunity to deliver a fatal blow to Ling Xiao.
Just as Chongtian was about to say no, Lingxiao took the lead and said firmly, "Brother, there is really no need to refuse this. If there is anyone in the younger generation of Zhengqi Hall who can really beat me, it doesn't matter if I keep my life. How could I, Lingxiao, be the kind of person who is afraid of death?"
His eyes flashed with determination and confidence, as if he was ready to face all challenges.
Upon hearing this, Chongtian frowned, his eyes full of worry: "Junior brother, you must not underestimate the enemy! There are many talented people in Zhengqi Hall, and there are also many masters among the younger generation. Although you are gifted, you must not be careless and lose the opportunity."
His tone was full of concern and warning for Ling Xiao, fearing that Ling Xiao would make an irreversible decision in a moment of impulse.
Seeing this, Yu Haoran sneered and took the opportunity to say, "Chongtian, your junior brother agreed so readily. Could it be that you, a dignified demon cultivator, are afraid of such a fair duel? If so, it would be a joke."
There was a hint of provocation and disdain in his words, trying to anger Chongtian and make him unable to refuse this duel.
Chongtian sighed helplessly after hearing this. He knew Ling Xiao's temper and decision very well. Once made, it would be difficult to change. Moreover, if a fight really broke out, he alone would not be able to get away with it in Zhengqitang.
Thinking of this, he could only compromise and said, "Well, since my junior brother has said so, what can I, as his senior brother, say?"
Yu Haoran sneered, his eyes flashing with ruthlessness and pride. He looked at Elder Xuan Yue and ordered, "Let those little guys come out. This kid is not simple, don't be careless."
"Don't worry, Great Elder. Today, this kid will definitely die!" Elder Xuan Yue nodded fiercely. His broken arm was aching slightly, which made his hatred towards Ling Xiao even stronger.
He stroked his broken arm, his eyes flashing with a fierce light, as if he wanted to repay Ling Xiao this pain a hundred times a thousand times.
Immediately, Elder Xuan Yue turned and left, his steps firm and resolute, as if he had already seen the moment Ling Xiao fell in front of him.
Yu Haoran glanced at Chongtian coldly, and a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. That smile was full of contempt for Chongtian and confidence in victory:
"Chongtian, I know you want to save him, but I will tell you clearly today that his life will be saved by my Righteousness Hall. If you, the Demon Tower, want to intervene, then feel free to try and see if our Righteousness Hall is just a name!"
Chongtian frowned when he heard this. He knew Yu Haoran's determination very well and also understood the danger of this confrontation.
However, he did not refute anything, because he also felt that Ling Xiao's actions today were indeed a bit rash and he did not fully consider the consequences. But even so, as a senior brother, he could not just watch Ling Xiao fall into danger and do nothing.
Then, Chongtian landed beside Lingxiao. He gently patted Lingxiao on the shoulder, sighed and said, "Since you have made your decision, I won't say much. No matter whether you win or lose, remember to save your life and run. I will protect them for you and will never let them hurt you easily."
His tone was full of concern and worry for Ling Xiao, as if he was ready to sacrifice everything for Ling Xiao.
When Ling Xiao heard this, he felt a warm current in his heart, and his eyes even became slightly moist. In fact, he and Chongtian had only known each other for half a month, and during this short time together, they had not been together most of the time.
However, Chongtian was so affectionate towards him that he was willing to protect him at all costs. Even though he had a heart of stone, this affection moved him a little.
Ling Xiao took a deep breath, trying to calm himself, then turned to look at Chongtian and asked, "Senior Brother, why don't you ask me why I killed someone? Why did you help me without hesitation?" His eyes were full of gratitude and confusion, as if he was waiting for Chongtian's answer.
Hearing this, Chongtian shook his head gently. His eyes were firm and gentle, as if he had seen through everything: "You killed people for your own reasons. I believe you will not hurt others for no reason. So, don't ask."
His tone was full of trust and understanding for Ling Xiao, as if he was ready to face all difficulties together with Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao was even more moved when he heard Chongtian's words. He smiled bitterly and thought: This senior brother, no matter what his character is, he is really kind to me. He will definitely remember this friendship and repay it with gratitude in the future.
Although Chongtian did not ask Ling Xiao why he killed someone, Ling Xiao still decided to tell him everything that happened.
After listening to Ling Xiao's narration, Chongtian's face darkened instantly. He sneered, his tone full of disdain and anger:
"What a wicked Zhengqi Hall! The bad guys are the first to complain! If you, Ling Xiao, were a little weaker, I'm afraid you would have been killed by them by now. This matter is not over! Xuan Yue, as an elder, is so cruel and ruthless. He must die!"
There was a terrifying murderous intent in his eyes, as if he wanted to cut Xuan Yue into pieces.
When Ling Xiao saw this, his heart moved slightly. He understood that Chongtian was doing this for his own good, but he didn't want Chongtian to be implicated because of his own affairs.
So, he slowly spoke, with a hint of pleading in his voice: "Brother, there is no need to do this. Although Xuan Yue is hateful, she has already lost an arm, which is the punishment she deserves. Let her go for now. If she still doesn't know what's good for her, I will kill her myself."
Ling Xiao's words revealed his careful consideration and tolerance. He did not want to implicate more people because of his hatred.
