Join the Heavenly King Sect?
“Holy Son Highness, this is not what we agreed upon.”
Chen Nanxing was anxious.
“You shut your mouth. As long as Ling Xiao is willing to join the Heavenly King Sect and become this palace’s servant, then any guilt can be pardoned.”
The Holy Son sternly shouted.
Wu Xiang dared to contradict the Holy Son.
Ling Xiao also dared.
But Chen Nanxing did not dare.
Upon hearing the Holy Son’s words, some core disciples in the Moon Flower Sect were actually tempted.
The Heavenly King Sect was the strongest among the twelve sects. Joining the Heavenly King Sect was simply like a carp leaping over the dragon gate.
As for becoming the Holy Son’s servant, they were more than eager for it.
They would even kneel and lick boots. What was being a servant?
One must know that the Holy Son’s servants would all become influential figures in the Holy Dynasty in the future. At that time, what martial arts could they not obtain? What resources could they not get?
For their cultivation, it would also provide enormous help.
After speaking, the Holy Son slightly raised her beautiful and fair chin, looking at Ling Xiao with pride like a peacock, waiting for Ling Xiao’s response.
In her view, such conditions were enough to drive any disciple in the Holy Dynasty mad, especially male disciples.
However, dreams are plump, while reality is bony.
Ling Xiao’s reaction was completely different from what the Holy Son imagined.
He showed no hesitation, nor any joy. In his eyes, there was instead a thick killing intent and anger.
Ling Xiao had come from a beggar’s life of begging. He had seen too many rich young ladies like the Holy Son, who looked down from above and did not treat beggars as people.
He deeply hated such expressions, which trampled and ravaged the beggars’ only bit of self-respect.
Ling Yu from the past was a typical example.
Now, the arrogance and rudeness displayed by the Holy Son were simply ten times worse than Ling Yu.
Servant?
Even if I, Ling Xiao, go back to being a beggar, I will not become someone’s servant.
Not to mention you, the Holy Son; even the Holy Emperor would not do.
“What do you want to do?”
The Holy Son was startled by Ling Xiao’s expression and subconsciously stepped back.
Another Transcendent Realm expert from the Heavenly King Sect blocked in front of the Holy Son, coldly looking at Ling Xiao. As long as Ling Xiao made a reckless move, he would mercilessly slay Ling Xiao.
“Are you very noble? You are merely relying on the power obtained by your ancestors.
Are you very great? What is great is your ancestor Ji Xuanyuan, not you.
Are you very powerful? Ninety percent strength half-step Heavenly Venerable, one of the Holy Dynasty’s six young masters; perhaps you are proud of it. But I can tell you that at this year’s Martial Dao Festival, I will personally defeat you.
Let me be your servant? To be honest, I really want to slaughter you; only then can I calm the anger in my heart.”
“Kill her; I will take responsibility.”
Moon Lady said indifferently.
She was like a fairy detached from worldly affairs, yet she had a special fondness only for Ling Xiao.
The Holy Son’s face showed a look of terror.
She now regretted it deeply. If she had known earlier, she should have had her master, the Heavenly King Sect’s sect leader, come in person.
Now, if Moon Lady made a move, she believed the two Transcendent Realm martial artists in front of her could not possibly stop it.
Ling Xiao looked back at Moon Lady and smiled, saying: “Moon Lady sister is still the best to me, allowing me to be so willful.”
A blush floated on Moon Lady’s cheeks.
Ling Xiao thought inwardly: You treat me like this; how could I let you fall into danger.
He was very clear that with Moon Lady presiding today, killing the Holy Son would absolutely be no problem.
But after doing this, Moon Lady would definitely become a common enemy of the Holy Dynasty and the Heavenly King Sect.
He believed that both the Heavenly King Sect and the Holy Dynasty had Yin-Yang Realm experts. Moon Lady was not invincible; he absolutely could not let her get into trouble.
He looked back at the Holy Son and said disdainfully: “You need not be afraid. I will defeat you fair and square at the Martial Dao Festival; I will not kill you here.”
Upon hearing this, the Holy Son and the two Transcendent Realm experts from the Heavenly King Sect all breathed a sigh of relief.
However, in their hearts, a chill arose again.
“This child is clearly in a rage, so angry and unwilling, yet he can calmly handle this issue. Too terrifying; this kind of person is the hardest to deal with. No wonder Chen Nanxing would pay such a price to ask the Holy Son to come and settle this matter. This kid really cannot be allowed to live; he is too dangerous.”
The Holy Son took a deep breath and said: “This palace indeed underestimated you. No wonder Jian Wuji is somewhat wary of you. But do you know that although my master and father emperor did not issue a decree this time, they gave me an oral instruction?”
“That is to say, they also dare not openly offend the Moon Flower Sect?”
Ling Xiao’s point of entry was always different from others.
The Holy Son frowned and said: “You can think that way, but this matter must be resolved. You killed so many people from the Sword King Sect; it cannot just end like this. Since Sect Leader Chen has begged this palace, this palace must solve the problem.
But I can give you a chance.”
“A chance?”
Ling Xiao looked at the Holy Son with a half-smile.
“Yes. At this Martial Dao Festival, you can come and challenge this palace. If this palace loses, I will no longer interfere in this matter.
If you lose, then accept the Heavenly King Sect’s interrogation on the spot. Do you dare to accept?”
The Holy Son said indifferently.
At this moment, she seemed to have regained her calm.
“Hehe, this woman is truly scheming and sinister. If I lose, with my personality, I will definitely not go back on my word; I will certainly accept the interrogation from the Heavenly King Sect and Sword King Sect in public. At that time, whether I live or die aside, my reputation will definitely be ruined. Even if I live, I will carry infamy for a lifetime.”
Ling Xiao cursed inwardly, and a mocking expression appeared on his face.
Chen Nanxing unusually did not oppose the Holy Son doing this, because in his view, Ling Xiao could not possibly reach the strength to defeat the Holy Son in such a short time.
So although this seemed like two outcomes, in fact, there was only one result.
As long as Ling Xiao agreed, he would inevitably not escape the fate of being interrogated.
And it would be interrogated in public in front of the twelve sects of the Holy Dynasty.
“How about it, Ling Xiao? You think highly of yourself; do you dare to agree?”
The Holy Son looked at Ling Xiao contemptuously and asked.
“Hahahahaha.”
Ling Xiao suddenly laughed up to the sky, then abruptly stared fixedly at the Holy Son and shouted: “Holy Son Highness, you need not be so aggressive. The reason you give such conditions is nothing more than thinking that I, Ling Xiao, absolutely cannot defeat you, one of the Holy Dynasty’s six young masters, at the Martial Dao Festival.
The number one expert under twenty in the Heavenly Dragon Continent.
To put it bluntly, you just apprenticed under a good master, obtained a good martial soul, your cultivation foundation is better than mine, and you started earlier than me. For the rest, you have no qualification to compare with me.
The Heavenly King Sect is very strong.
Your strength is also very strong.
But you probably do not know that one year ago, I was still a waste at the first level of the Martial Vein Realm.
In one year, I can cultivate to my current realm, and there are still dozens of days until the Martial Dao Festival. On what basis do you think I cannot surpass you?
Cannot defeat you?
What you can achieve, I can also achieve, and I will do it better than you.”
