Chapter 13637 Senior, you won’t do anything bad to me
At this point, Ling Xiao shook his head again, his face full of helplessness, "Although this treasure is extremely precious, it would be a lie to say that I don't want it, but in comparison, life is more important, isn't it?" He frowned slightly, as if weighing the importance of the treasure and life, and finally firmly chose the latter.

After hearing what Ling Xiao said, Elder Gu showed a satisfied smile on his face, nodded and said with a smile: "Young man, it's good to have such awareness!" His eyes revealed admiration for Ling Xiao, as if he thought this young man had some knowledge.

Immediately, his expression suddenly changed, his eyes became cold and sharp, and he said coldly: "However, you can't leave if you want to. Before we get the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword, you must stay with us." He stared at Ling Xiao closely, with an unquestionable commanding tone in his eyes, "Although you are indeed incapable of making the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword recognize its master, who knows if the sword will take the initiative to find you. We can't miss any chance to find the Black Sky Sword."

"Senior, this is a bit unreasonable." Ling Xiao frowned slightly, a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face, and there was a little helplessness and dissatisfaction in his tone. He thought to himself that this elder Gu was really overbearing and unreasonable, but it was not convenient to confront him directly at this moment, so he could only try his best to deal with him.

Elder Gu laughed coldly, his smile full of disdain and arrogance, "Even if I force you, what can you do?" He clasped his hands in front of his chest, his eyes revealing a strong sense of oppression, as if he was demonstrating to Ling Xiao that his absolute authority was not to be questioned.

Ling Xiao looked calm, with a relaxed smile on his face. He said calmly, "Although you are powerful, you may not be able to keep me here." He raised his chin slightly, with confidence in his eyes, "I am not completely useless in my cultivation. If we really want to fight to the death, you may not be able to escape unscathed. However, I can promise not to leave Zhaixing Tower City for the time being."

Ling Xiao paused for a moment and looked at Elder Gu with a firm gaze. "But I can't stay by your side forever. I have my own things to do. I have my own goals and pursuits. I can't give up everything just because of the request of my seniors."

Elder Gu stared at Ling Xiao closely, his face becoming somewhat gloomy, like the sky before a storm. He was quite annoyed with Ling Xiao's attitude, but he had to admit the confidence and daring that Ling Xiao exuded. Seeing Ling Xiao's calm face, he couldn't help but frown, thinking to himself, this kid is so difficult to deal with, if he is really forced into a corner, I'm afraid many unexpected events will occur.

Immediately, he took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said: "Okay, I will take a step back. However, you must now take out all your storage rings and storage bags and let me check them. Only if it is confirmed that the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword is not there, can I let you leave." Elder Gu's eyes revealed a hint of doubt and vigilance. He would never allow the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword to slip away from under his nose.

"But even if you leave, you can't leave the Star-Picking Tower City thousands of miles away, otherwise, I will kill you." Elder Gu's voice was icy cold, as if every word was filled with frost, making people shudder. He was setting rules for Ling Xiao, warning him not to act rashly.

Ling Xiao smiled, looking calm, as if he didn't care about Elder Gu's request. "That's fine. I'm standing in front of you now, you can search me. If that thing is really on me, I'm willing to die!"

As Ling Xiao spoke, he opened his arms, posing as if allowing the other party to examine him. His eyes were full of sincerity and frankness, as if he was proving his innocence to Elder Gu.

Elder Gu stared at Ling Xiao closely, his eyes showing scrutiny and suspicion, as if he wanted to see through Ling Xiao. The next moment, his aura surged slightly, and his powerful consciousness suddenly enveloped Ling Xiao like a tide. That consciousness carried Elder Gu's unique majesty and oppression, like an invisible net, wrapping Ling Xiao completely in it.

At this moment, Ling Xiao seemed to be in a transparent world, and everything on him was visible. The number and location of the storage rings he wore and the storage bags hanging around his waist were all clearly seen by Elder Gu.

Elder Gu's consciousness was like a fine thread, gently probing into Ling Xiao's storage ring and storage bag. All the items stored inside, whether they were precious elixirs, shining spiritual crystals, or some strange and bizarre magic weapons, appeared in Elder Gu's mind without reservation. The details and quality of each item were exposed under Elder Gu's perception.

After a moment, Elder Gu slowly withdrew his consciousness that was like a tide. He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Ling Xiao, frowning deeply, with a look of doubt and thought on his face, as if he did not find what he expected in Ling Xiao's storage space.

At this moment, Luo Jia bowed slightly and said solemnly, "Elder Gu, this kid didn't lie about this." He paused, a glimmer in his eyes, and continued, "The news I just received is that the mysterious master seems to have been killed by the strong man in the Yu family's ancestral land, and the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword is most likely in Yu Zhengqi's hands."

Luo Jia's voice was low and powerful, and every word was clearly heard by everyone.

Elder Gu listened to Luo Jia's words and nodded slightly. Then he glanced at Ling Xiao calmly with a look of unquestionable majesty in his eyes, and said, "If you want to leave, I need to put a ray of my divine consciousness on you. If you agree, you can leave. Otherwise, I will kill you today regardless of whether you have the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword or not."

Elder Gu's tone was cold and resolute, as if this was an irreversible decision.

When Ling Xiao heard this, his face instantly became somewhat gloomy. He was extremely dissatisfied with Elder Gu's overbearing behavior. However, in this tense atmosphere, a barely perceptible sneer inadvertently flashed across his lips, with a hint of sarcasm and disdain in that smile.

After a long while, Ling Xiao slowly spoke, with a hint of tentativeness and vigilance in his tone: "Senior, you won't do something to me secretly, right?"

“Don’t worry. We will need you to seize the Demon Lord’s Black Sky Sword next. It’s just a wisp of divine consciousness for me to confirm that you haven’t escaped.” Elder Gu waved his hands impatiently, with a hint of urging in his tone, as if he was a little annoyed by Ling Xiao’s questioning.

"In that case, please!" Ling Xiao sighed helplessly. Although he was unwilling, he could only compromise after weighing the pros and cons. He raised his head slightly, revealing a hint of determination in his eyes, indicating that Elder Gu could take action.
