Chapter 253: Chapter 253 Outer Sect Tian Chao_1
Ling Xiao’s attitude towards Wu Xiang was different from both Zhao Zhi and Zhao Ting.
Even though he knew Wu Xiang was ranked last among the disciples of the elders, he still treated him with great respect and courtesy.
This made Wu Xiang feel a certain warmth. Even if he couldn’t help, he didn’t want Ling Xiao to run into trouble upon his arrival at the Moon Hua Sect, so he followed him out as well.
Tian Chao, who was ranked fiftieth among the outer disciples, had reached the ninth layer pinnacle of Martial Veins, undeniably powerful.
In his opinion, Ling Xiao at most had reached the eighth layer peak of Martial Veins. How could he possibly fight against a high-level opponent like that?
He was sure to suffer, so he absolutely had to stop Ling Xiao.
However, Ling Xiao’s body movement technique was too terrifying. By the time he arrived at the scene, Ling Xiao was already standing in front of Leng Mei, blocking Tian Chao.
"Hehe, what are you nervous about? I, your senior brother, didn’t plan to do anything. It’s just that my clothes are torn, and I wanted to ask this junior sister to help me mend it," Tian Chao said with a smile, then took off his outer garment and purposefully tore a rip in it.
"The junior sister is clumsy and doesn’t know how to sew. Might as well let me, your junior brother, do the honors for senior brother," Ling Xiao said with a smile.
"You?"
Tian Chao scoffed and said, "That could work, but the tear in my clothing seems quite big."
As he spoke, Tian Chao tore the garment a little more and then threw it to Ling Xiao.
While the clothing was still in mid-air, Ling Xiao suddenly slapped it with his palm.
The clothing immediately turned to dust!
"What are you doing, kid?"
Tian Chao glared with wide eyes and shouted.
"Just disposing of some trash," Ling Xiao said indifferently.
Although Leng Mei was unharmed this time, the adversary’s provocative intent was very clear.
He had talked about keeping a low profile, but there was no need for it below the Transcendent Realm.
His combat skills were very strong, something both Hei Suo and Demonflame Celestial knew, so what was there to hide.
"You really have a death wish, kid!"
Tian Chao threw a punch but was stopped by someone.
"Junior Brother Tian, it’s boring to pick on a new disciple. As for your clothing, I’ll have him compensate you with silver, that’s all," Wu Xiang said, blocking Tian Chao’s way.
"Compensate?"
Tian Chao suddenly grinned and said, "That’s fine. This clothing of mine is made from the finest Heavenly Silkworm Silk on the Heavenly Dragon Continent, worth at least a thousand low-grade spirit stones. I’ll give you one day to prepare. If you can’t compensate, you can’t blame me for being unkind."
Having said that, he glanced at Wu Xiang, a trace of fear briefly flashing in his eyes, then turned around and left.
Ling Xiao smiled bitterly to himself: I was just thinking of finding someone to spar with, to get a feel for the level of the Moon Hua Sect’s outer disciples, and now you’ve gone and intervened.
Although that’s what he thought, Wu Xiang was after all acting out of good intentions, so it would have been inappropriate to say anything further. He just clasped his fists and said, "Thank you."
"No need for thanks. But if you don’t have a thousand low-grade spirit stones, I can front it for you," Wu Xiang said.
A thousand low-grade spirit stones were incredibly precious in the secular world and were also highly valued by the outer disciples of the Moon Hua Sect.
After all, Wu Xiang had performed many tasks and had collected only three thousand low-grade spirit stones over the course of an entire year.
If it weren’t for wanting to make friends with Ling Xiao, he really wouldn’t be willing to lend it.
"Thanks for the kind offer, Senior Brother Wu, but there’s no need."
Ling Xiao waved his hand and said.
"You have them?"
"Where would I have so many low-grade Spirit Stones to spare? I just don’t want to give them, that’s all. You don’t need to worry about this matter, brother. I have my own limits."
Ling Xiao actually had a thousand low-grade Spirit Stones, but he just didn’t want to show his wealth.
His words made many of the new disciples sweat for him.
Tian Chao had always bullied the newly initiated disciples, and except for Leng Mei, others had also been harassed by him.
A few of the new initiates were even severely injured by Tian Chao.
After all, as long as one doesn’t end up dead or crippled, it isn’t considered a violation of the rules—an aspect that was somewhat similar to the Hidden Dragon Camp.
They were well aware of Tian Chao’s terror. Even more than a dozen Martial Masters at the Eighth Layer of Martial Veins couldn’t withstand three moves from Tian Chao.
Of course, that was partly because Zhao Zhi, Xu Ying, Zhao Ci weren’t present, and Leng Mei and Ling Xiao didn’t make a move.
But even so, Tian Chao’s strength was frightening indeed.
Ling Xiao was well aware of this too; he even felt that Tian Chao’s strength was on par with General Jiu Yue, perhaps even stronger.
After all, it was much harder for General Jiu Yue to learn Gold Grade Martial Arts, while Tian Chao could learn them freely, narrowing the gap between their cultivation levels with Martial Arts.
If Tian Chao were to go into the secular world, most of the Martial Masters at the Ninth Layer Pinnacle of Martial Veins wouldn’t likely be his match. Only Lin Ze, Wan Ben, and the White Cloud Sect Leader might stand a chance of winning against him by a move or a half, and it would definitely be a pyrrhic victory.
Such are the benefits of being in a sect!
Of course, that’s only in comparison with other Martial Artists. Ling Xiao, who possesses the Mountain and River Martial Soul, is not afraid of Tian Chao.
"Senior Brother Wu, if you’re free, why not take us around the Outer Sect a bit, like to the Book Collection Pavilion or someplace similar? Is there one?"
Ling Xiao soon put Tian Chao’s matter aside. Now that he was out and about, he wanted to take the opportunity to get familiar with the surroundings of the Outer Sect so that it would be more convenient for him no matter what he had to do in the future.
"The Book Collection Pavilion of Moon Hua Sect is called ’Moon Pavilion’. It’s divided into the Outer Moon Tower, Inner Moon Tower, and Core Moon Tower. I’ll first give you a tour of the place, and then we’ll head to the Outer Moon Tower."
Wu Xiang was quite enthusiastic, after all, he had nothing else to do.
When no one paid attention to him in the past, he would just practice his cultivation alone. Now that Ling Xiao was willing to be friends with him, he was actually quite pleased.
Wu Xiang first took Ling Xiao and Leng Mei around to familiarize themselves with the terrain, then headed to the Outer Moon Tower.
"What’s wrong, Leng Mei?"
On their way to the Outer Moon Tower, as they passed through a valley, Leng Mei suddenly stopped, her expression extremely grave. This prompted Ling Xiao to ask with concern.
"She must have been struck by a murderous aura."
Wu Xiang explained, "About a hundred thousand years ago, this valley was a battlefield. I’ve read in a book that a foreign assassin killed a total of a thousand elite disciples of the Moon Hua Sect here, resulting in a sky-high murderous aura."
"There was such a terrifying person?"
"His strength wasn’t that strong, but his Martial Arts were too sinister." Wu Xiang shook his head and said, "It’s a pity that the book is not very detailed in its description. Otherwise, I would really like to know what kind of expert he was."
"Young Master, I’m all right."
Leng Mei glanced at the deep valley and said with a smile.
Ling Xiao didn’t suspect otherwise, since Leng Mei’s cultivation level was lower than his, it was quite possible that she would be startled by the murderous aura that had struck her.
What he didn’t know was that Leng Mei was in a hurry in her heart. Being saved by him repeatedly, while she felt fortunate, she was also very annoyed.
After all, the purpose of Leng Mei following Ling Xiao was not to rely on him, but to assist him.
The events of today made Leng Mei determined that even if she had to become a Fierce Ghost, she would quickly increase her strength to become someone useful to Ling Xiao.
