Chapter 13713 Are you crazy?

Yue Xue's eyes flashed with determination. She had already made up her mind. She gritted her teeth and said, "No, I must go see Ling Xiao again. This abominable bastard actually used such a despicable method to tarnish the reputation of the eldest lady. He deserves to die!"

After Yue Xue finished speaking, she turned around and was about to walk in the direction where Ling Xiao was, her steps were firm and quick, as if she didn't want to delay even a moment.

……

In a corner of the bustling street, a slightly old inn stood quietly. The inn's sign swayed gently in the breeze, making a "creaking" sound, as if telling the vicissitudes of time.

At this moment, Yue Xue appeared at the door of the inn again. She was dressed in a black outfit, with an upright posture, but her eyes were filled with hesitation and trepidation.

Yue Xue took a deep breath and was about to step into the inn. However, just as her toes were about to cross the threshold, an invisible pressure came over her. This pressure was like a towering mountain, which instantly stopped her steps.

She was startled and realized that this was a warning from Ling Xiao. Although Ling Xiao was in the room at this time, he seemed to have a pair of invisible eyes, always monitoring every move of the inn.

Yue Xue gritted her teeth and finally took back her steps. She did not dare to rashly challenge Ling Xiao's warning. After all, the last confrontation with Ling Xiao made her realize that Ling Xiao's strength was by no means ordinary.

"You don't understand the situation of the young lady at all!" Yue Xue stood outside the inn and shouted at the closed door. There was a hint of anxiety in her voice, as if the worry in her heart was about to burst through her chest.

Immediately, she told everyone everything about the Water Tribe. During her speech, the threat of the Water Tribe hung over everyone's mind like a dark cloud, making them feel extremely depressed.

"It's none of my business! You provoked me first, and now you want me to consider you? How ridiculous! You can't afford to offend the water tribe, so you come to provoke me?" Ling Xiao's voice came coldly in the room. The voice was full of sarcasm and disdain, as if everything Yue Xue said was just a farce in his eyes.

Then, he shouted unceremoniously: "Get out!" This one word, like a sharp blade, cut off the glimmer of hope in Yue Xue's heart.

Yue Xue was furious, her hands were clenched tightly, her nails dug deep into her palms, leaving blood marks. Her chest rose and fell violently, and her eyes were burning with anger.

However, she finally suppressed her anger and turned to leave the inn. She knew that she couldn't afford to take the risk. Once she had a complete falling out with Ling Xiao, Qin Xianglan's situation would only become more dangerous.

However, Yue Xue did not go far. She found a secluded spot in a corner near the inn and stayed there quietly. Her eyes were always fixed on the door of the inn, like a vigilant cheetah, always guarding its prey.

She secretly swore in her heart that if the people of the water tribe really dared to kill Qin Xianglan, she would definitely help without hesitation. Because Qin Xianglan's mother had saved her life, she remembered this kindness in her heart, and no matter what, she would protect the daughter of her benefactor.

At this time, in the inn room, Qin Xianglan sat quietly beside the bed, looking at Ling Xiao calmly. She was wearing a white dress with long hair draped over her shoulders. Although she had gone through hardships, she still couldn't hide her noble temperament.

"Taking me with you like this will only make your situation more troublesome." Qin Xianglan said softly, her voice as clear and pleasant as a mountain spring.

Ling Xiao heard this and shook his head slightly, with a confident smile on his face. "You are wrong. With you, at least the Qin family will be cautious! Those who are afraid of the Qin family will also be cautious!" As he spoke, he slowly paced in the room, with a wise look in his eyes.

Qin Xianglan sighed slightly, with a trace of worry in her eyes. "Ling Xiao, you are very smart. If you are willing to give up that treasure, you..." Before she finished her words, she was interrupted by Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao glanced at Qin Xianglan indifferently, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

"You seem to have forgotten that this treasure has been following me stubbornly. I want to give it up, unless I die first. If it were you, would you choose death? I don't want to be hunted down either, but there is no other way. I can only bite the bullet and do it."

Ling Xiao said this, frowning slightly, as if recalling all the experiences related to the treasure, his heart was full of bitterness.

"Of course, if you can find a way to make it leave me peacefully, I don't mind giving you this sword!" Ling Xiao added at last, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone, as if he was playing a little joke on Qin Xianglan.

However, behind this joke, he was deeply helpless and determined. He knew that it would be difficult to get rid of the troubles brought by this treasure. But he would never give up easily. No matter what was waiting for him ahead, he would face it bravely.

Qin Xianglan sat quietly beside the bed, her eyes helplessly falling on Ling Xiao. Her eyes were intertwined with confusion and worry. She opened her lips slightly and said slowly: "So what are you going to do? Do you really want to make the whole world your enemy?"

Her voice was soft, but it echoed clearly in the slightly dim room, with a hint of disbelief. At this moment, the atmosphere in the inn room was so oppressive that it made people breathless. The flickering candlelight on the wall seemed to sigh for their current predicament.

Ling Xiao stopped pacing, raised his head slightly, and looked into the distance through the mottled window, as if he was looking for some kind of answer. He shook his head slowly, and a complex expression appeared on his face, with helplessness and determination.

"This is not what I want," he said in a deep and powerful voice, as if it came from the depths of his soul, "but if the whole world wants to force me into a desperate situation and must be my enemy, what can I do? I will not sit and wait for death. I will kill when I should kill, and I will escape when I should escape.

Of course, if they really force me into a dead end, it is not impossible for me to die with them. Although I am not a hero, I still have some pride in my bones, and I will never be willing to be slaughtered by others! "

As Ling Xiao spoke, his eyes flickered with a fiery light, which was an unyielding struggle against fate.

When Qin Xianglan heard this, her eyelids twitched slightly. She stood up suddenly, clenched her hands together subconsciously, her eyes full of shock and disbelief.

"Are you crazy?" Her voice suddenly rose, with a bit of urgency and anger, "Do you really think you can fight against the Qin family, the Holy Hall, the Water Tribe, and other ferocious enemies alone? The power of any one of them is enough to crush you to pieces, let alone if they unite!"

As Qin Xianglan spoke, she paced back and forth in the room, her steps hurried and flustered, as if she could no longer suppress her inner anxiety. (End of this chapter)
