Chapter 1291: Chapter 1291: Attack as a Group

Stewart Scarlett closed her eyes, awaiting the moment of death.

However, after a long time, she still did not feel any pain.

When she opened her eyes, she found herself lying in Ling Xiao’s arms, Granny Corpse’s right arm completely severed.

"Why?"

Stewart Scarlett was utterly perplexed.

"It’s simple, the less I care about you, the less she dares to use you as a shield. At the critical moment, she threw you to me, attempting to delay my attack."

Ling Xiao said indifferently, "She just forgot, I didn’t come alone."

Indeed, it was Leng Mei who severed Granny Corpse’s right arm.

"Old Witch, you should have persisted. To be honest, letting such a beautiful woman die at your filthy hands, I was really reluctant. But unfortunately, you didn’t have the guts, ultimately failing!"

Ling Xiao showed a cold smile and said lightly.

"You sly little beast."

At this moment, Granny Corpse was nearly in despair.

Yet the next moment, a look of excitement appeared on her face.

Ling Xiao knew why she was happy.

Because someone arrived.

And not just one person; these people’s auras were exactly the same as those from Blue Wave Island.

Stewart Scarlett frowned.

For some unknown reason, even though people from Blue Wave Island came over, she didn’t feel the slightest bit happy. Instead, she felt a bit uneasy.

After all, Granny Corpse was the Deputy Island Master of Blue Wave Island, yet she killed her senior brother and even used her to threaten Ling Xiao.

This made her feel very uncomfortable.

Yet Ling Xiao, clearly just a stranger, was willing to save her life in passing.

She knew Ling Xiao wouldn’t fall in love with her, he simply thought it a pity if she died.

Dying at Granny Corpse’s hands was even more of a pity.

But saving her was saving her.

At the critical moment, who is a friend and who is an enemy was so clear.

It turns out rumors can’t represent everything. The Ling Xiao in rumors is someone who recognizes no family ties.

"Ling Xiao, you should leave soon. The one coming is another Deputy Island Master from Blue Wave Island—Seng Li. His strength is on par with Granny Corpse’s; you are no match for him. Go, I’ll handle things here."

Stewart Scarlett was not like Granny Corpse; at the critical moment, she stood by Ling Xiao’s side.

"Want to leave? Too late!"

A furious shout came, and the voice had just arrived, but the person was already standing by Granny Corpse’s side.

This person’s speed was actually faster than sound.

On his shiny bald head, not a single hair grew. Yet no one dared to mock him; his powerful strength put it on display, who would dare mock, they were courting death.

Looking at this person, Ling Xiao sighed lightly. Although Blue Wave Island is said to be on par with the Phoenix God Empire, in reality, its strength is clearly inferior.

Neither Deputy Island Master is a Yin-Yang Realm expert, this can’t compare to the Phoenix God Empire.

A small island is just a small island.

Perhaps the Five Immortal Islands are truly powerful, but currently, within the Seven Martial Islands, Pixiu Island and Blue Wave Island don’t seem as formidable as imagined.

Of course, even so, they are second only to the two great Empires.

Just barely considered in the same league.

This bald-headed person should be the other Deputy Island Master of Blue Wave Island that Stewart Scarlett mentioned, Seng Li, right?

Not long after, more people arrived at the broken temple.

Among them, there were actually two Cave Heaven Realm Martial Artists, although only at the initial Cave Heaven Realm, but Cave Heaven Realm is Cave Heaven Realm, this is incontestable.

Their might was even more unquestionable.

The rest, the weakest were Heavenly Man Realm Seven Star Sky Martial Artists.

This could be considered a group of elites from Blue Wave Island.

Clearly stronger than those previously led by Granny Corpse.

"What exactly happened, Granny Corpse?"

Seng Li glanced at the corpse of the Blue Wave Island disciple, sucked dry, and then at the heavily injured Granny Corpse and asked.

"Do I even need to say it? I discovered the heavily injured Heavy Water Protector here. Who knew the old thing was cunning, feigning weakness; I was ambushed and injured by it, forced to heal here.

Later, Stewart and this disciple arrived, so I instructed them to protect me.

Who knew this little bastard Ling Xiao would come, insistent on killing me. Pity our disciple, who was drained of vitality by his sorcery, turned into a withered corpse."

Granny Corpse’s words, anyone even slightly intelligent wouldn’t believe them.

Seng Li naturally wouldn’t believe either.

But he certainly wouldn’t expose her, and he would firmly stand by Granny Corpse’s side.

The rest of Blue Wave Island’s disciples were the same.

Those who could see through it wouldn’t expose it either, for Granny Corpse was one of them.

Those who couldn’t see through naturally would support Granny Corpse even more, for Ling Xiao was their Blue Wave Island’s enemy.

At this moment, their eyes filled with murderous intent stared at Ling Xiao, eager as if each one would take a stab, chopping Ling Xiao into a thousand pieces.

However, in this world, there are always those who are rather unconventional, who might be loathed.

But they live by their true selves, not simply following the crowd.

For example, Stewart Scarlett is one of them.

Ling Xiao saved her life after all.

For an outsider to be willing to save her, that alone was moving enough for her.

Knowing the truth but not revealing it, that’s something she wouldn’t stoop to either.

"Deputy Island Master Seng Li, Granny Corpse’s words can’t be trusted. Though she’s a Deputy Island Master, her mouth is full of lies, utterly shameless!

Not only did she kill my senior brother, but she outrageously used my life to threaten Ling Xiao. Such a thing is absurd even to me, yet she doesn’t even blush."

Stewart Scarlett spoke up.

Her words brought a moment of astonishment.

Even Ling Xiao was a bit surprised to look at her; at this time, she could have stayed silent.

Yet she didn’t do so.

"Too naive, too innocent."

Ling Xiao shook his head but then smiled, "But I like people like this."

A balloon filled with lies, no one dared expose it, even less dared to poke it.

But Stewart Scarlett did.

She punctured the balloon likened to the sun, naturally causing a stir.

Granny Corpse sneered, "You little girl, could it be you’ve fallen for this Ling Xiao? Otherwise, how could you slander me so baselessly? I’m a Deputy Island Master of Blue Wave Island, your elder and mentor.

I know you’re pure and kind, but surely you haven’t been so easily swayed by a few sweet words from Ling Xiao?

You say I used you to threaten Ling Xiao?

Doesn’t that sound laughable to all of you? What’s your relationship with Ling Xiao? Would I hold you hostage? Do you take me for a fool?"

Granny Corpse’s words were righteous, appearing as if she truly was a pure white lotus.

Even Seng Li felt a bit disgusted listening.

After all, Seng Li knew what kind of person Granny Corpse was.

But at this moment, knowing full well, he still couldn’t refute her and coldly glanced at Stewart Scarlett, "Utterly out of line, a dignified Rose Sword of Blue Wave Island, standing on the opposing side of Blue Wave Island, speaking for a villain, has all the sect’s teaching over the years gone to the dogs?"
