But he couldn't control his immense strength, which caused his body to tremble, and his hands to shake slightly as well.
Lin Jinglong, watching Tianxiao's hesitant figure from behind, silently shook his head. Once someone hesitates in such a matter, killing becomes impossible.
Tianxiao was starting to get scared.
Previously, under his own instigation, he disregarded the consequences and took action directly, relying solely on his courage and the anger that had accumulated over many years.
Now, after venting his anger...
That surge of courage had already dissipated.
Seeing that he was scared, Chen Qi suddenly burst into laughter.
"Hahaha! You still don't dare to make a move. It seems you are aware of the difference in status between us. If you dare to kill me, you will definitely die."
"You will die a much worse death than me!"
"A stray dog, truly a stray dog!"
Chen Qi's voice was extremely harsh.
Tianxiao's face was gloomy, and he did not speak.
At that moment, a figure descended at lightning speed from not far away. Upon seeing Chen Qi lying on the ground, he still displayed his ugly, defiant demeanor.
The old man had a gloomy look in his eyes.
He walked over and said coldly, "You piece of trash, you've disgraced me. Who told you to be defeated and still boast about my name here?"
This person was none other than Chen Mingde, whom Chen Qi had mentioned.
A fifth-order True Monarch Elder of the Heavenly Dragon Sect.
For a True Monarch realm expert, advancing even one realm is incredibly difficult, even though the difference in realm between father and son is only two minor levels.
But in reality, the difference in strength is like heaven and earth.
In addition, Chen Mingde relied on his own talent to accumulate a profound foundation and improve his realm, so his strength is self-evident.
After so many years of fighting and killing in the upper realm.
His combat skills were also much stronger than those of his spoiled son.
At this moment, the moment he appeared, even Chen Qi restrained his arrogance. He struggled to his feet, feeling his crumbling state, and said painfully, "Father, I am seriously injured. This person wants to cripple me!"
"We absolutely cannot let him get away!"
"And just now, if he hadn't launched a sneak attack, I wouldn't have been defeated so easily."
Chen Qi said in a gloomy tone.
Chen Mingde glanced at him but did not reply.
In fact, his figure had already appeared in the distance not long ago, and he did not make any move when he saw his son targeting Tianxiao.
After all, it's just a fight between young people, and they're not bullying any important figures, so naturally nothing will happen.
Tianxiao is not worth making a personal appearance.
However, when he saw Chen Qi being defeated by Tian Xiao, and that this guy actually had the intention to kill his own son but hesitated to do so out of fear, he knew that he had no choice but to appear.
Otherwise, if Tianxiao were to act impulsively and kill someone, although he could avenge his son, the loss would be irreparable.
"Shut up, you disgraceful thing."
Chen Mingde was too lazy to say anything more.
There's no way to teach my son anymore; I, as his father, have to take responsibility for him.
Chen Mingde's figure went to Tianxiao's side.
"Tianxiao, do you know your crime?"
"I know I am innocent!"
Tianxiao said in a gloomy tone.
Lin Jinglong also walked over, and said with a smile, "Elder from the Upper Realm, I don't think Tianxiao has committed any crime. Your Heavenly Dragon Sect's rules shouldn't be that complicated, right?"
"Not to mention, it was Chen Qi who provoked us first. Does your Heavenly Dragon Sect intend to allow your subordinates to suppress your fellow disciples so recklessly?"
Lin Jinglong's words made Chen Mingde's face turn red.
He looked around and saw that the people nearby, including those from the Heavenly Dragon Sect and other sects, all looked on with amusement.
They didn't care whether Tianxiao lived or died.
Many of them even hoped that Tianxiao could kill Chen Qi. After all, everyone knew how unfair it was for someone like him, who relied on his family background and a spoiled brat to reach such a level, to many cultivators who had grown up through their own hard work.
They wish Chen Qi were dead right now.
To die in the most tragic way!
Lin Jinglong's words resonated with the others present. Although they were wary of Chen Mingde's identity, they still nodded subconsciously.
Chen Mingde said with a gloomy expression, "Don't give me this nonsense. You ambushed your fellow disciple and tried to kill someone during the sparring session. You have already broken the rules. If I hadn't intervened in time, my son would have died at your hands."
"You acted in time?"
Lin Jinglong was amused by this guy.
If Tianxiao hadn't hesitated before, Chen Mingde, being so far away, probably wouldn't have had time to show up. To put it bluntly, it was Tianxiao himself who didn't dare to kill anyone.
What is his relationship with Chen Mingde?
The old man underestimated Tianxiao's killing intent.
Facing Chen Mingde, Tianxiao could barely utter a word. His face was deathly pale, and he lowered his head to accept the reprimand, which was almost his biological instinct.
Even if one has already reached the third level of True Lord.
Even when facing powerful figures within the sect, he maintained the same demeanor.
Even when facing stronger opponents like Wu Wangu, he wasn't actually that afraid.
Lin Jinglong, however, after arguing with Chen Mingde, realized that the old man had already decided to kill them.
He simply said to Tianxiao, "It seems that this time you really need my help. We cannot reveal our identities, so only you can defeat Chen Mingde."
"I'll hit Elder Chen?"
Tianxiao's expression was one of utter shock.
He's only a third-tier True Monarch, so how could he possibly defeat Chen Mingde, who's a fifth-tier True Monarch?
"I will lend you the core of the Heavenly Dao."
Lin Jinglong said casually.
Tianxiao's eyes widened in shock. Not long ago, he had indeed seized the core of the Heavenly Dao, but Lin Jinglong had easily snatched it away. He was no match for him at all.
He didn't even dare to hope that one day he could obtain another Heavenly Dao Core. After all, the dragon vein he found in Kyoto was already a coincidence, and the others didn't care about scattered dragon veins, but came to search for the Heavenly Dao Record.
But Lin Jinglong actually dared to lend him the core of the Heavenly Dao?
"If you're really willing to lend me your core, aren't you afraid I won't return it?"
“You don’t have the guts. I know exactly what kind of person you are.”
Lin Jinglong transmitted his voice to him in a disdainful tone.
Tianxiao's face flushed red, and he could only nod.
But in reality, when Lin Jinglong said he would lend him the Heavenly Dao Core, he was also keeping it as a precaution. He only gave him the power of the core, but Tianxiao himself had never refined the core.
Possessing the power of the Heavenly Dao core does not mean he can control it; the switch is still in Lin Jinglong's hands.
Chen Mingde also saw Lin Jinglong and Tianxiao talking.
After the last time these two did this, his son almost died. Would they dare to lay a hand on him again this time?
"Who is that kid? Tianxiao seems to be somewhat afraid of him, but isn't he a lowly commoner from the lower realm?"
Chen Mingde looked at the disguised Lin Jinglong with suspicion.
