Heavenly Tyrant Martial Soul-Chapter 516 - The villain sues first_1

Ling Xiao was leisurely sorting through the items in the coffin.

He didn’t inspect the other items carefully, as the cauldron was even better than he had expected, turning out to be a Divine Artifact.

Its name was “Ten Thousand Spirits Cauldron.”

Although it had no offensive capabilities, with this item, he would be able to refine high-quality pills more easily in the future.

In some respects, it was even more exceptional than those offensive Magical Treasures.

Bai Feifei hesitated.

Ling Xiao’s composed demeanor made her truly afraid to act rashly.

“Senior Sister Bai, let’s just let it go.

There must be even better treasures ahead of us.

Why bother stooping to his level over these items?”

Shang Guan Lei stepped forward to smooth things over.

This essentially provided Bai Feifei with a way out, otherwise, if they really started a conflict, no one knew what would happen.

“Impossible!

Ling Xiao, have you done something to me?”

Bai Feifei’s brain, that foolish woman, finally clicked.

“So what if I have?

You’re so sly and malicious, if I didn’t take precautions, wouldn’t you have killed me?”

Ling Xiao sneered again, “But rest assured, once the Pagoda Climbing Ceremony is over, my fellow disciple, I will naturally help you remove these troubles.”

“You’d better not dare go back on your word, otherwise, I swear, I will kill you and everyone around you!”

Bai Feifei thought a lot in that instant and ultimately gave up on continuing to hold Dai Yuling hostage.

Because if she really killed Dai Yuling, she probably wouldn’t escape death herself.

Ling Xiao was too cunning; she dared not disbelieve his words.

Seeing Bai Feifei release Dai Yuling, Ling Xiao finally packed up all the items and returned to the main path.

In that moment, as many as five attacks came at him from different directions.

Ling Xiao let out a cold huff, lightly flicked his right hand, and five flashes of sword light shot out, piercing the throats of these five people, before returning to his Mountain and River World.

The Sword Control Technique was incredibly useful against such sneak attacks.

Quick in speed and lethal in power; simply wonderful!

“Remaining participants: twenty-five!”

Since the start of the Pagoda Climbing Ceremony, not even a day had passed, and already half of the people had been eliminated.

Of course, these five individuals who targeted Ling Xiao failed not because of the challenges, but because of their greed.

“Anyone else want to make a move?”

Ling Xiao coldly surveyed the crowd, asking indifferently.

The other martial artists, who had initially planned to gang up on him, now abandoned such plans.

Ling Xiao was too strong; they would have to wait for him to be trapped or injured before making their move.

“The Giant Stone Monster is about to awaken; let’s go!”

Ling Xiao glanced at Dai Yuling and then rushed forward.

…

Outside the Moon Blossom Pagoda, at the entrance, many people had already gathered.

Because so many people had been eliminated, it really seemed quite unusual.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, five figures were thrown directly out of the Moon Blossom Pagoda.

“Another five eliminated?”

Chang Yueying frowned and muttered to herself.

The rest of the high-ranking officials didn’t look very pleased either.

This time, the Moon Lady had deliberately increased the number of entrants to the Moon Blossom Pagoda, but who would have thought that the number would be reduced to half so quickly?

What was the point of increasing the entrants then?

“What on earth happened?

How were you five eliminated?”

Elder Jin asked coldly.

“It was Ling Xiao!”

One of them said indignantly, “That guy Ling Xiao ambushed us!”

“Yes, he’s so despicable.

When he saw us gain good items, he took advantage of our distraction and attacked us from behind, stealing everything from the five of us.”

Another chimed in.

“Scoundrels!”

“Evildoers!”

“Beasts!”

“Scum of the Sect!”

In an instant, several voices burst out cursing Ling Xiao, inevitably those siding with Supreme Head Teacher and Elder Jin.

“Why get so worked up, gentlemen?

Their words are but one side of the story.”

The Heavenly Lord of the Divine Sky, Hall Master of the Inner Sect Hall, spoke slowly, “My disciple, Zhao Zhi, was fortunate to receive the Black Winged Roc Martial Soul, a gift from Ling Xiao.

If this Ling Xiao is of such character, how could he have gifted my disciple such a precious item?”

Because of Zhao Zhi’s relation, the initially neutral Divine Sky Heavenly Venerate had begun to take a liking to Ling Xiao and did not believe the accounts of the five.

“That’s right, you five had better come clean.

What exactly happened?”

Golden Light Heavenly Lord bellowed angrily.

The thing he despised most was the guilty blaming others first.

“Both Heavenly Lords, we’re telling the truth!

Otherwise, with our combined strength, how could we have been eliminated so easily?”

“Obstinate fools!”

Divine Sky Heavenly Venerate snorted coldly, his right hand’s index and middle fingers coming together, lightly pointing to his third eye.

And then, a beam of white light shot out from the third eye.

The experiences of these five disciples were displayed before everyone.

“Humph, just as I thought, the guilty party accusing first.

Elder Jin, what have you got to say?”

Divine Sky Heavenly Venerate looked at Elder Jin and asked, “As the Head of Enforcement Hall, how should a disciple who attempts to harm their peers and accuses others while being obstinately wrong be dealt with?”

“Summon the guards, strip those five of their cultivation level, and expel them from the Sect!”

Under the watchful eyes of all, Elder Jin could not cover up for these five fools and commanded, promptly resulting in Enforcement Hall’s disciplinarians stepping forward and disabling the five’s cultivation levels.

No matter how the five fools pleaded for help, it was to no avail.

Naturally, Elder Jin was filled with hatred for Ling Xiao, and those Sect high-ranking officials who had previously cursed Ling Xiao were now silent.

On this matter, they had truly lost face.

…

Within the Moon Blossom Pagoda, Ling Xiao and others, to evade the chase of the Giant Stone Monster, had fled into a fragrant herb garden.

The huge garden spread over thousands of square miles, so vast that one couldn’t see its edges.

Various colored clouds enshrouded the sky; looking towards the distance, they resembled rainbows.

“Remaining number of people, twenty-three!”

Two more had been slain by the Giant Stone Monster, which then entered a state of rest.

Everyone stood in the garden, hoping to take advantage of the situation to gain some benefits from it.

At the center of the garden, there was a towering tree with strange fruits hanging from it.

On the ground, there were also some herbs of peculiar appearance.

While few recognized these things, the spiritual qi emitting from them was exciting enough.

However, the area just outside the center of the garden was enshrouded in auspicious clouds.

One could see inside but not necessarily enter.
