Faced with Bai Xiwen's attack, everyone reacted differently...
I remained calm, knowing there wouldn't be any problems. Murong Xuanxuan wore a triumphant expression, as if she were about to exact revenge...
Granny Saint Puppet looked on expectantly. She knew that Tuoba San still had a trump card, which he hadn't used even when facing her...
Only Liu Lingxian was terrified, her eyes filled with worry, fearing that Tuoba San would die at Bai Xiwen's hands...
Faced with the full-force attack of a Saint-level expert, Tuoba San's eyes were filled with solemnity...
In the face of a life-or-death crisis, every cell in his body became unusually active, pounding wildly...
The killing intent that had been building up during this period was released without reservation, all of it poured into the jade pendant. At this moment, the milky-white jade pendant actually emitted a faint blood-red hue...
For Tuoba San, this was a fight to the death, so he held nothing back…
Bang…
Bai Xiwen's Saint-level attack was blocked by the jade pendant, and Tuoba San, now defenseless, was struck by the other two Emperor-level puppets...
His body flew backward, and blood kept flowing from the corner of his mouth while he was in mid-air...
But he laughed. Yes… he laughed…
The jade pendant flew back and embedded itself in his body; he had blocked the attack…
Just as Bai Xiwen was about to take the opportunity to kill Tuoba San, the voice of the Holy Puppet Granny rang out.
"Alright, let's end this battle here..."
Bai Xiwen paused, his face as black as the bottom of a pot, and roared...
"Mother-in-law, what do you mean? He provoked me like this, are you just going to let it go like this?"
"Hmph! You've already taught him a lesson, isn't that enough?"
With an extremely serious expression, Granny Saint Puppet asked in return. As the sect leader's puppet, Bai Xiwen dared not disobey her, but he was unwilling to accept it...
"Mother-in-law, I can let him go, but he must kneel down and apologize to me..."
Bai Xiwen made an excessive request: he didn't want the battle to end and wanted Tuoba San to continue fighting him to the death...
He had a strong grasp of Tianjiao's mentality. Before he could finish speaking, Tuoba San forced himself to stand up, ready to fight to the death...
Even when Liu Lingxian tried to help him up, he pushed her away…
"Bai Xiwen, don't make me hate you..."
Seeing that Tuoba San was about to fight to the death, Liu Lingxian, in her anxiety, vented her emotions on Bai Xiwen...
Bai Xiwen stared in disbelief at his beloved junior sister, who had just called his name. This proved that he had become a villain in her eyes...
why is that?
He looked at Tuoba San. Was it all because of this man? Was a savior who suddenly appeared more important than his fellow disciples who had grown up with him?
"Junior Sister..."
Bai Xiwen wanted to say something, but the words seemed stuck in his throat, and he couldn't open his mouth. His heart ached so much that he couldn't breathe...
"Bai Xiwen, don't call me Junior Sister. I don't have a senior brother like you who bullies the weak..."
Liu Lingxian's words caused Bai Xiwen even more heartache. He looked at Tuoba San, who was standing there with great effort, and wondered where he had gone wrong...
"Aren't you going to apologize to Third Brother? Do you want me to hate you for the rest of my life?"
Liu Lingxian looked at Tuoba San with eyes full of heartache, and was even more impressed by his unwavering determination. She felt that only such a man was worthy of a proud woman like her...
But she didn't notice Bai Xiwen's pain at all. Bai Xiwen had no idea what she had done wrong or why she should apologize. She had won the battle with her own strength, so how could she have done something wrong?
But when he heard his junior sister say she would hate him for the rest of her life, Bai Xiwen's eyes were filled with fear. Even though he was hurt beyond repair, as a devoted admirer, he ultimately swallowed all his grievances and said to Tuoba San...
"Brother, I was wrong..."
That one sentence stunned everyone. It was like breaking Bai Xiwen's spine; this incident could very well become a source of inner demons for him…
If Bai Xiwen were to turn to the dark side because of this, it would be a potential threat to everyone…
Tuoba San couldn't help but frown, suddenly feeling that this kind of person was not worthy of being his opponent at all...
"Third Brother, Fifth Brother has already apologized, please forgive him..."
Liu Lingxian's words left both parties in an awkward position; one didn't need an apology, and the other didn't need forgiveness…
"Brother Bai is incredibly strong; I am no match for you. However, once I break through my current level, I will definitely seek to spar with you again..."
Tuoba San ignored Liu Lingxian's words and instead cupped his hands in greeting to Bai Xiwen...
By this time, Bai Xiwen had completely lost face and dignity. He thought Tuoba San would arrogantly humiliate him, but to his surprise, Tuoba San not only didn't humiliate him, but even flattered him, allowing him to salvage some of his lost face...
"The Tuoba brothers are exceptionally talented; their future achievements are bound to be limitless..."
Bai Xiwen replied politely, and the two of them could be considered to be complimenting each other...
"Brother Bai, you're too kind. I see that you possess such strength at such a young age; you are truly a rare genius..."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Liu Lingxian, standing in the middle, felt somewhat awkward…
"Junior Sister, what are you doing? Is Fifth Senior Brother the kind of person who kills innocent people indiscriminately? I was just sparring with Brother Tuoba. To express my apology, I happen to have a piece of essence obtained from slaying a monster from the Void God Realm. I'll give it to Brother Tuoba as an apology..."
As he spoke, Bai Xiwen produced a round bead in his hand and tossed it directly to Tuoba San…
Tuoba San subconsciously picked up the bead and discovered that the power fluctuations within it were the same as those in the crystals he had obtained from slaying monsters in the Void God Realm over the past few days, except that the power within this bead was greater and purer…
He looked at Bai Xiwen with a puzzled expression, while Bai Xiwen said with great pride.
“I see you absorbing essence, but the kind you’re absorbing is left behind by low-level beings in the Void God Realm. It’s not only full of impurities, but also contains very little power…”
The power I obtained came from a powerful being in the Realm of the Void Gods, and it was even purer…”
Listening to Bai Xiwen's explanation, Tuoba San finally understood that the other party was trying to show off, but he didn't expose him. After all, while showing off, the other party had also given him this essence, which could be considered hush money...
He looked at the essence in his hand. The essence he had obtained before was an irregular crystal, which was almost like trash compared to this round bead...
After playing with it for a while, Tuoba San subconsciously used his killing intent to absorb the power from the essence...
In an instant, a surge of power flooded his mind, leaving him frozen in place...
Bai Xiwen couldn't help but shake her head, thinking to herself, "Young people will be young; they can't resist even the slightest temptation. They'll suffer for it now..."
"Third Brother..."
Liu Lingxian shook Tuoba San's body, but there was no response. She turned to Bai Xiwen and angrily questioned him.
"What did you do? Why isn't Third Brother moving?"
