Chapter 407: Amazing Genius
When the onlooking crowd heard Ling Xiao’s words, they, in fact, agreed in their hearts.
Because what Ling Xiao had said was absolutely correct. There was no rule in the sect that prohibited disciples from concealing their strength.
In addition, there was also no stipulation that the disciples must enter the Inner Court after stepping into the Transcendent Realm.
A dignified Supreme Elder, moreover, a Law Enforcement Elder, actually wasn’t completely clear about the sect rules. Furthermore, he used this faulty reason to plot against an outer disciple.
This was far worse than just being inappropriate. It was truly as Ling Xiao said————shameless to the extreme!
Moreover, utterly foolish!
However, although most people inwardly agreed to Ling Xiao’s words, they weren’t bold enough to say it aloud like Ling Xiao.
They were very clear about the consequences of offending the Head of the Law Enforcement Hall.
Naturally, since there were people who didn’t dare to offend Elder Jin, there were also people who dared to speak up.
Vast Wintry Celestial Worthy came back to her senses after being shocked by Ling Xiao’s cultivation base. She then coldly smiled and said: “Hehe, using a groundless reason to carry out a sneak attack on an outer disciple, Law Enforcement Hall’s dignified Head is also truly domineering enough! Imposing enough! No wonder other people say that the current Law Enforcement Hall of the Moonlight Sect has long been above the Sect Master!”
Her words were full of irony.
Elder Jin’s old face trembled a few times. Originally, he just wanted Ling Xiao to understand the consequences of offending him.
Moreover, help Hei Suo in passing, and make it easier for Hei Suo to take care of this kid.
However, he hadn’t expected Ling Xiao to be so daring. Ling Xiao’s every word made him lose his old face, and now, he had no face to face the other people on the scene.
He was a hypocrite.
He naturally cared about his old face. At this moment, he even wanted to find a hole to bury himself.
Bang!
A muffled sound of explosion resounded.
The ground below Elder Jin, which was made with thick slabstones, actually caved in because of his anger.
His eyes were fixed on Ling Xiao, wishing he could kill Ling Xiao on the spot.
Vast Wintry Celestial Worthy stood up.
Golden Light Celestial Worthy also stood up.
Even Elder Tu stood up after some hesitation.
“What do you all want to do? Could it be that this seat can’t even kill an outer disciple that insulted the Supreme Elder?”
Elder Jin naturally knew the meaning of these three people. However, he still refused to give in, and relying on his status as the Head of the Law Enforcement Hall, he said: “This seat has always been fair in meting out rewards and punishments. Since this kid repeatedly hurled insults at this seat, which is already a violation of the sect rules, he’s simply guilty of a serious crime! So, this seat will implement the sect punishment. Can you all stop me?”
His voice was cold and domineering.
He had been sitting on the head seat of the Law Enforcement Hall for a long time, and he had always been decisive in killing. He naturally had a somewhat vicious tendency, and he didn’t even attach importance to the other people of the sect.
“Hahaha, Elder Jin, if he is just an ordinary outer disciple, you could kill him as you pleased to vent your anger. However, just now, you have also seen it, his cultivation has already reached Peak Rank Two Transcendent Realm! In a short period of two months, he was actually able to attain such a terrifying cultivation base. This talent is truly a great blessing for my Moonlight Sect! I’m afraid you cannot kill this person.”
Originally, Golden Light Celestial Worthy had no intention to help any side. However, the talent displayed by Ling Xiao made him very excited, and he decided to protect Ling Xiao.
“Elder Jin, if you dare to kill Ling Xiao today, then this seat will exterminate all your disciples and grand disciples! Moonlight Sect is not only your Moonlight Sect. You can’t do whatever you want to do!”
Vast Wintry Celestial Worthy’s voice was ice-cold: “This seat is not your opponent, but your disciples and grand disciples, none of them will live, including that injured Demonic Flame Celestial Worthy!”
“Vast Wintry! You are truly shameless enough!”
Elder Jin’s expression changed greatly and he said coldly: “You are a dignified Vast Wintry Celestial Worthy, a Celestial Realm powerhouse, but you actually want to make a move on a seriously injured person and those juniors?”
“Who is more shameless!”
Vast Wintry Celestial Worthy couldn’t help coldly saying: “You are a dignified Supreme Elder, and you threw away your face to deal with an outer disciple, but you feel that this seat is being shameless if this seat wants to kill your disciples and grand disciples? Elder Jin, is your brain truly getting rusty?”
Indeed, Elder Jin was more shameless!
Upon hearing the exchange between Elder Jin and Vast Wintry Celestial Worthy, many inner disciples looked embarrassed. You are the Head of the Law Enforcement Hall, and you are domineering, killing whoever you want to kill. But you don’t want others to kill your juniors. Isn’t that too shameless?
Elder Tu also looked awkward. He had a very good relationship with Elder Jin. Last time, it was Elder Jin who suggested the other four elders of the Law Enforcement Hall make a move to help Demonic Flame Celestial Worthy.
He had used the reason of protecting the genius, Demonic Flame Celestial Worthy.
But this time, he was truly being a bit shameless.
“Head, let’s put the matter of Ling Xiao aside for the time being. After returning to the sect, we can hold a meeting to make the decision. As for now, how about resolving the current matter first?”
Elder Tu finally spoke.
If he continued to let Elder Jin run wild here, he guessed that their Moonlight Sect would have infighting here. At that time, it would be a good joke for the other sects.
The Moonlight Sect was already not powerful enough, if they were not united now, then they would truly fall into an embarrassing situation.
“Humph, this seat will give you face! It’s not that I’m afraid of them!”
Elder Jin could see that the other three elders were dissatisfied with his action. It was naturally impossible for him to continue to be tough. Therefore, he seized the chance lent by Elder Tu to back down.
In any case, I don’t need to be impatient to kill Ling Xiao. I have plenty of chances later!
After returning to the sect, would this kid be able to escape my grasp?
No, this kid is already injured. Even if his cultivation base is Peak Rank Two Transcendent Realm, he’s absolutely not Hei Suo’s opponent.
I’m afraid he is going to die here today. There’s basically no need to wait until we return to the sect.
Thinking of this, Elder Jin felt a little better in his heart. He didn’t need to do anything. Hei Suo would vent his anger for him.
“Ling Xiao, can you still fight?”
Golden Light Celestial Worthy asked. He was very concerned about Ling Xiao now.
A little too concerned.
Everyone could see that he wanted to take Ling Xiao as his disciple. Otherwise, why would he be so kind to Ling Xiao all of a sudden?
“I can!”
Ling Xiao nodded his head.
No matter what purpose Golden Light Celestial Worthy had, the other party was helping him now. Therefore, he would naturally give this Inner Elder a face.
“Okay, since that’s the case, you two can start. If someone wants to make a move again, this seat will protect you!”
Golden Light Celestial Worthy smiled and sat down again.
“Humph!”
Elder Jin snorted from the other side. He naturally understood that Golden Light Celestial Worthy was talking about him. However, would he need to carry out a sneak attack again? He didn’t believe it, how could Ling Xiao be Hei Suo’s opponent?
Ling Xiao’s gaze focused on Hei Suo again.
Just now when Ling Xiao was confronting Elder Jin, Hei Suo didn’t join.
Although he truly wanted to watch Ling Xiao getting slapped to death by Elder Jin, he also truly wanted to kill this kid with his own hands.
However, Ling Xiao’s sudden display of Peak Rank Two Transcendent Realm cultivation base made him cautious.
Naturally, cautious didn’t mean fear. After all, between Peak Rank Two Transcendent Realm and Initial Rank Four Transcendent Realm, there was still a big gap.
