Chapter 13557 Kill Ling Xiao
Chapter 13557 Kill Ling Xiao
The young man's body froze in place, as if he was firmly locked by an invisible force, unable to move even a finger.
He felt that the breath in his body was completely suppressed, as if it was tightly grasped by an invisible big hand, and even breathing became difficult. Cold sweat oozed from his forehead, and his eyes were full of fear and unwillingness, but he could only watch Ling Xiao's extremely cold eyes.
Ling Xiao stared down at him, his eyes like ice, his voice piercingly cold: "If my fiancée and sister were not still in your Zhengqi Hall, based on your action of attacking me just now, you would have been a corpse by now."
The young man opened his mouth and wanted to refute, but found that he seemed to have no strength to speak.
His face flushed with shame and anger, but more of a deep sense of powerlessness. He could clearly feel the terrifying murderous intent emanating from Ling Xiao, as if a sharp knife was hanging over his head, ready to fall at any time.
"I..." The young man uttered a word with difficulty, his voice hoarse and weak.
"What?" Ling Xiao raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a sarcastic smile, his eyes full of disdain.
The young man gritted his teeth. Although he was unwilling, he didn't dare to show off. He forced a smile and said in a flattering tone, "I... I just came to see who is so wise and powerful. I have no other intentions!"
Hearing this, Ling Xiao's smile deepened, as if he had heard something interesting. He nodded and said in a relaxed tone, "Oh? You came to see me, but didn't you bring any gifts?"
The young man was stunned, and then his face became extremely embarrassed. He didn't expect Ling Xiao to suddenly ask such a question, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.
Seeing that he was silent, Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a hint of teasing: "No gift?"
The young man's heart tightened, and he quickly waved his hands and said, "Yes, yes, yes! Of course!"
As he spoke, he hurriedly took off the storage ring on his hand, held it in both hands and handed it to Ling Xiao, forcing a smile on his face: "This is a little gift from me, please accept it."
Ling Xiao took the storage ring, scanned it with his spiritual sense, and found that there were more than one million high-quality spirit stones piled up inside.
Although these spiritual stones are not as precious as spiritual crystals, they are still a considerable fortune. He nodded with satisfaction, put away the storage ring, patted the young man on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Brother, you came just like that, and you gave me such a big gift... Hey, you are really too polite!"
The young man smiled very reluctantly, and the muscles on his face seemed to be twitching: "Of course, of course..."
Ling Xiao took his hand back, the smile on his face not diminishing, and his tone was a bit teasing: "Come and see me more often in the future, and invite a few more people to come along. I am a person who is always very happy about gifts."
After saying this, he no longer paid attention to the young man, turned around and walked towards the direction of the Demon Tower. His back looked elegant and calm, as if everything that had just happened was just an insignificant farce.
The young man stood there, watching Ling Xiao's back gradually going away, with mixed feelings in his heart. He looked down at his empty fingers, touched his aching neck, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.
He knew that he not only lost face today, but also lost a large amount of spirit stones, but compared to his life, what did these matter?
"This guy... is a real monster." The young man muttered in a low voice, then shook his head, turned around and walked away quickly, fearing that Ling Xiao would suddenly change his mind and come back to cause trouble for him.
The young man stumbled back to Zhengqi Hall, his whole body soaked with cold sweat, his clothes clinging to his skin, as if he had just been pulled out of the water. His face was pale, his eyes were a bit dazed and terrified, and he looked miserable, as if he had experienced a life-and-death catastrophe.
In the square of Zhengqitang, the sunlight shines on the bluestone ground, casting a bright shadow.
Many Zhengqitang disciples were practicing or chatting in the square. When they saw the young man in this state, they gathered around him. Someone asked with concern: "Brother, what happened to you? Why are you so embarrassed?"
The young man panted, a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes, and then he suddenly raised his head and said in a hoarse and angry voice: "That Ling Xiao is too much! Not only did he humiliate me, he also threatened that there is no one in our Zhengqi Hall, and said that he would beat up our Zhengqi Hall disciples every time he saw them in the future! He simply doesn't take our Zhengqi Hall seriously!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was an uproar in the square. The disciples looked at each other, and then their faces showed anger. Someone clenched his fists and said with gritted teeth: "Who is Ling Xiao? How dare he insult our Zhengqi Hall like this! Do you really think we are soft persimmons?"
However, some people doubted the young man's words. An older disciple frowned and asked coldly, "Junior brother, you didn't go to fight Ling Xiao and got hurt, and now you come back to incite everyone to stand up for you, right?"
The young man's face froze when he heard this, and then he retorted even more excitedly: "Bullshit! Have you all forgotten that Ling Xiao killed someone in our Zhengqi Hall before? Now the disciples of the Demon Building are laughing at us for this incident, saying that our Zhengqi Hall disciples are useless trash! Don't you feel aggrieved?"
His words were like a fire, instantly igniting the anger in everyone's hearts. A burly disciple slammed the table and roared, "That's right! Now when we disciples of the Righteousness Hall see people from the Demonic Tower outside, we have to be inferior to them! I can't swallow this anymore!"
"That's right! It's so fucking frustrating!" another disciple echoed, his face full of indignation.
The atmosphere in the square became increasingly intense, and everyone's emotions were completely ignited. At this moment, someone in the crowd whispered, "Kill Ling Xiao!"
This sentence was like a spark that instantly set off the entire place. After a brief silence, countless people suddenly shouted in unison: "Kill Ling Xiao! Kill Ling Xiao!"
The sound was deafening, resounding throughout the Zhengqi Hall Square and even reaching the distant mountains. The faces of the disciples were filled with anger and determination, as if they wanted to vent all the resentment that had been pent up in their hearts for a long time.
The young man stood in the crowd, looking at his fellow disciples who were all very angry, with a hint of triumph in his eyes. He knew that his goal had been achieved. Next, the conflict between Zhengqitang and Lingxiao would completely erupt.
Soon, a group of people left the eighth-floor Zhengqi Hall in a mighty procession. They walked with firm steps and great momentum, as if they were a group of warriors about to embark on a journey, their target directly aimed at the legendary nine-story magic tower.
The sunlight shone through the sparse clouds and dappled onto them, adding a bit of mystery and solemnity to this unknown journey.
