Chapter 671: 671

"Rest assured, I won’t kill you. No need to wet your pants with fear. Kneel here, and we’ll set off after a quarter of an hour!"

Ling Xiao said indifferently.

"Ling, don’t you think you’re being too arrogant? We are representing the Red-robed Elder!"

One of the three men said loudly.

Ling Xiao sneered, "Even if you represent Chen Nanxing, the Sect Master of the Sword King Sect, today you casually kicked my door and spoke to me disrespectfully. You must pay the price. Making you kneel is letting you off easy. Got any more complaints?"

"You’re going too far!"

The three struggled to stand and then jointly launched an attack on Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao just stood there, without even moving a hand, his eyes emanating an overwhelming murderous intent that covered a radius of a hundred meters, causing even Tantai Lingzi, who was standing aside, to flee in terror.

The three men fared even worse, ending up on their knees right there and then.

"That’s more like it!"

Ling Xiao smiled faintly and then sat down to wait.

The three men knelt on the ground, their faces the picture of ugliness, their bodies shivering uncontrollably.

At this moment, Dai Yuling, Lan Yu’er, Leng Hao, and several leaders of the Moon Hua Sect stepped out and saw those three kneeling figures, showing a trace of mockery.

This made the three men feel utterly humiliated inside.

They had come to summon Ling Xiao under the orders of the Red-robed Elder of the Sword King Sect’s Inner Sect, thinking that because they were in the Sword King Sect and had the Red-robed Elder’s backing, they could strut around arrogantly and impressively.

But the result was them kneeling miserably here, becoming the subjects of finger-pointing, like monkeys being played with in the streets.

Ling Xiao paid no more attention to the three, as today’s events were not unexpected to him. If anything was unexpected, it was the absence of Chen Nanxing, the Sect Master of the Sword King Sect. Instead, an Inner Sect Elder from the First Line Heaven Realm had shown up.

"A quarter-hour has passed. Ling Xiao, let’s head out together. We’ll settle old scores and new grudges once and for all today,"

Wu Xiang appeared in front of Ling Xiao after waiting a quarter-hour.

He had discussed thoroughly with Ling Xiao last night, and now was the perfect time for the Moon Hua Sect, with its increased strength, to suppress the Sword King Sect and showcase its might.

Back when disciples of the Moon Hua Sect were killed by those of the Sword King Sect, the Moon Hua Sect didn’t even dare to fart.

Today, Wu Xiang intended to seek justice for the lost souls of the Moon Hua Sect so that he could further solidify his position within it.

Once successful, people would completely forget about Chang Yueying and only remember him as the Sect Master who truly elevated the Moon Hua Sect!

"Hm!"

Ling Xiao was not a rash person; he wouldn’t go out alone to meet the ferocious members of the Sword King Sect.

Deliberately seeking death when one knew they couldn’t win was not bravery, it was stupidity!

"You three, get up. Wasn’t that Red-robed Elder supposed to see us? Lead the way!"

He directed a cold gaze at the three kneeling Sword King Sect Inner Sect disciples.

"But what about the two slaves who ran away yesterday?"

Trembling, one of them mustered enough courage to ask this question.

"Didn’t you hear me tell you to lead the way?"

Ling Xiao said coldly.

"Yes, yes!"

The man did not dare to ask more. Faced with Ling Xiao, the three were like frightened rabbits, not daring to utter an extra word as they obediently walked ahead, leading the way with trepidation.

Of course, they harbored hopes in their hearts—

"Just you wait, you bastards from the Moon Hua Sect. How dare you make us kneel; soon you’ll kneel before us all too!"

But could this favorable situation really come to pass?

Stepping out of the temporary residence, the open ground outside was already packed with people.

In addition to the Sword King Sect disciples brought by the red-robed woman at first, many had come on their own initiative.

It had to be admitted that the Sword King Sect’s disciples were quite united; they always stood together when it came to bullying the weak.

The red-robed woman was now sitting on a stool, actually holding a cup of tea, with Chang Yueying waiting on her.

This scene made Wu Xiang frown involuntarily.

People accustomed to being servants really can’t change their ways.

"Red-robed Elder, that’s the guy, that kid is Ling Xiao!"

With one voice speaking up, nearly all gazes turned towards Ling Xiao as if he were the main character here. Even Wu Xiang’s brilliance was overshadowed by him.

Ling Xiao walked side by side with Wu Xiang, followed by Lan Yu’er, Dai Yuling, Leng Hao, and Golden Light Heavenly Lord.

As for Chang Yueli and Tantai Lingzi, they trailed at the back, seemingly indifferent to the day’s events, unwilling to get involved.

However, no matter how one looked, the crowd did not include the two slaves who had fled from the Battle Beast Arena.

When the red-robed woman saw Ling Xiao and the others, she stood up with hatred and then smashed her teacup on the ground, glaring deathly at the three obviously injured Inner Sect Disciples.

"What happened with you three?"

"Reporting to the Elder, not only did Ling Xiao not come out with the three of us, he also... he also..."

They were truly embarrassed to speak of being forced to kneel.

However, they didn’t have to say it, as Ling Xiao spoke with a smile, "It’s nothing much, just troubled them to kneel for a little while at the door of my room."

"You bastard!"

Enraged, the red-robed woman was infuriated. Ling Xiao was too arrogant, daring to treat her disciples this way, how could she not be angry, "It seems your Moon Hua Sect really wants to be annihilated!"

"Red-robed Elder, please calm down. Ling Xiao has always been this arrogant and domineering, and even the high-ranking officials of our Moon Hua Sect cannot control him."

Chang Yueying said hurriedly.

It was clear she was genuinely afraid that the Sword King Sect would take action.

Having said this, she looked at Ling Xiao and added, "Ling Xiao, you can enjoy the Battle Beast Arena all you want, but why did you have to kill so many disciples, and all for two slaves?"

"Head Elder, I’m not sure I understand what you’re saying. Aren’t you still the Head of the Moon Hua Sect’s Enforcement Hall? Shouldn’t you be questioning why the Sword King Sect forced their way into the Moon Hua Sect’s temporary residence, and even broke my room door, instead of questioning me? What kind of reasoning is this?"

Ling Xiao looked at Chang Yueying indifferently as he spoke.

He used to have no particular dislike or fondness for Chang Yueying, but recent events had made him increasingly detest her.

Selfish, cowardly, and only bullying the weak, this woman seemed to embody it all.

"The Sword King Sect is one of the leading sects among the Twelve Sects, and our Moon Hua Sect is at the bottom. In this world where the strong prey on the weak, what’s wrong with listening to them?"

Chang Yueying said in a cold voice, unhappy because Ling Xiao was openly disrespecting her in front of others.

Although she was no longer the Sect Master of the Moon Hua Sect, she was still the Head of the Enforcement Hall.

"Is that so? In that case, if I killed a few weaklings yesterday for my amusement, what’s wrong with that?"

Ling Xiao retorted, "Survival of the fittest, right?"

"You’re twisting the truth!"

Chang Yueying was so agitated she was close to cursing out loud.

"Is that so? If there’s nothing else, would the Head Elder please move aside? Right now, I’m not in the mood for infighting,"

Ling Xiao said as he gave Chang Yueying a casual glance.
