Lin Yazi looked towards the source of the voice. It was Leng Qingqiu who made it. She spoke without emotion.
"Master Lin, although the competition has been resolved, you should at least give us an explanation for injuring my Xiao Ning just now, right?" Her voice was crisp and firm, with a hint of unquestionable momentum.
When Lin Yazi heard this, he frowned slightly, turned around and looked at Leng Qingqiu, sneering: "Oh? I thought you would be grateful for my mercy."
Leng Qingqiu looked directly at Lin Yazi without fear and said, "Grateful? Master Lin, you hurt someone, shouldn't you be held responsible for this?"
Lin Yazi burst into laughter, with a flash of disdain in his eyes, "What a joke! He wasn't injured, why should I be held responsible?"
Leng Qingqiu's eyes turned cold, and he said coldly: "Master Lin, you are making up groundless arguments. Although Xiao Ning was not injured, it is not the behavior of a gentleman to attack a junior. If you leave like this today, who will dare to associate with your Tianjian Villa in the future?"
Lin Yazi's face changed, and he secretly cursed this woman for being so difficult to deal with. He knew that if this matter got out, it would have a great impact on his reputation. So, he pretended to be generous and smiled, and said: "Okay, in this case, then I will apologize to this little brother. However, I hope you will not pester me anymore." As he said that, he looked at Xiao Ning with a hypocritical smile on his face.
Xiao Ning sneered in his heart. He certainly understood Lin Yazi's thoughts. However, he did not speak, but stood there quietly, waiting for Leng Qingqiu's response.
Leng Qingqiu raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and said lightly: "There is no need to apologize, we are not unreasonable people. However, your behavior just now does make us dissatisfied, so you need to make some compensation."
Hearing this, Lin Yazi couldn't help but feel relieved. As long as the problem can be solved with money, it's not a big deal. He quickly asked, "What kind of compensation does Sect Master Leng want?"
Leng Qingqiu smiled slightly, pointed at the Yuanbai sword in Lin Yazi's hand, and said, "It's very simple. The Yuanbai in your hand can be regarded as compensation for us."
Lin Yazi's face changed drastically. The Yuanbai Sword was a treasure that he had obtained with great difficulty, and it was also a top-grade weapon. How could he easily give it to someone else? He gritted his teeth and said, "Master Leng, this Yuanbai is my favorite thing, and I really can't give it up. How about this, I can give you some other treasures as compensation."
Leng Qingqiu shook his head and said firmly: "No, we only want it."
Lin Yazi's face changed constantly, and he secretly groaned in his heart. This Yuanbai Sword was his favorite, and he was unwilling to hand it over. But at this time, many eyes were focused on him, and the forces behind Xiao Ning were stronger than each other, so he did not dare to offend them easily.
After a struggle, Lin Yazi finally gritted his teeth and reluctantly handed the Yuanbai sword to Leng Qingqiu, saying, "Okay, this Yuanbai sword is my compensation. I hope this incident ends here and does not affect our relationship."
Leng Qingqiu took Yuan Bai and showed a satisfied smile on her face. She nodded and said, "Thank you, Mr. Lin, for your generosity. We will naturally not pursue this matter any further."
Lin Yazi nodded helplessly and left with his disciples in disgrace. He secretly swore in his heart that he would find an opportunity to take revenge in the future.
After Lin Yazi left, everyone was still immersed in the shock of what had just happened. Dongfang Xiong coughed lightly with an embarrassed look on his face and signaled with his eyes for the referee to announce the result of the match.
The referee came back to his senses as if awakened from a dream, cleared his throat and said loudly: "The final winner of this martial arts competition is - Xiao Ning!"
The sudden cheers broke the silence. People applauded and congratulated, and excitedly rushed to the stage to express their blessings to Xiao Ning.
Xiao Ning slowly came back to his senses at this time, looking at the lively scene in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous and uneasy. His social phobia recurred, his body trembled slightly, his fists clenched, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.
Bai Ziyun noticed Xiao Ning's abnormality, hugged him with a worried look on his face, and asked anxiously: "Ning'er, what happened? Why are you sweating so much?"
Xiao Ning breathed rapidly and stammered, "Master... take me away quickly, I can't breathe..."
Without saying anything, Bai Ziyun quickly picked up Xiao Ning and ran out the door. Leng Qingqiu and Qin Ruxue saw this and hurriedly followed him, leaving only the confused crowd on the stage...
Arriving at the rest area, Bai Ziyun wiped the sweat off Xiao Ning's forehead with his hand with an anxious look on his face, and said in a voice full of concern: "Ning'er, what's wrong with you? Please don't scare your master!"
At this moment, Leng Qingqiu suddenly stepped forward and held Xiao Ning's hand tightly, with a hint of self-blame in his tone: "Oh, I actually forgot that Ning'er can't stay in a crowd for a long time. As long as there are too many people around him, he will become extremely anxious and panic, and even have convulsions."
Bai Ziyun and Qin Ruxue suddenly realized that so many people rushing towards him just now was simply a nightmare for Xiao Ning.
Xiao Ning finally caught his breath and stammered, "Don't worry... I just need some time to recover slowly..."
Bai Ziyun looked at Xiao Ning in his arms with heartache, and comforted him softly: "Don't worry, Ning'er, the master is here, don't be afraid!"
After a long while, Xiao Ning's breathing gradually stabilized and his body stopped shaking. He gently grasped Bai Ziyun's hand, his eyes flashing with gratitude, and said gently: "Thank you, Master, I feel much better now."
