As soon as he finished speaking, the third elder walked towards Taihua Mountain. But just as his foot crossed the line, a golden sword light suddenly fell and cut off his forefoot! Blood spurted out like a column, and the third elder howled in pain, pointing at Xuan Lingzi and cursing, "Xuan Lingzi, how dare you do this? You are going too far!"
Xuan Lingzi didn't even look at him, but raised his hand and another sword light fell.
“Ahhhh!”
The third elder accidentally crossed the line and had two fingers cut off again.
The people from the Broken Soul Sect immediately came up and took their elder back for careful treatment.
Drops of blood fell from Xuan Lingzi's sword. He was dressed in a snow-white robe, his black hair flowing without a breeze. He held a black iron sword in hand, standing alone in front of hundreds of elite cultivators. With only one man and one sword, no one dared to move. Some even secretly stepped back, not daring to stand in front of the group.
No matter how harshly these people cursed and how arrogant they behaved just now, they are now as timid as ever.
After a long moment, the Fourth Patriarch of the Bai Family stepped forward, a white jade spear in hand. He walked in front of Xuan Lingzi, carefully avoiding stepping on the line. He rebuked, "Venerable Xuan Lingzi, although you are at a high level, you are but a junior in front of us. This time, you violated the contract, causing it to be broken. Instead of repenting, you are seeking your own pleasure. Isn't that inappropriate?"
Xuan Lingzi raised his eyes and looked at the fourth ancestor of the Bai family.
Seeing that the other party did not refute him, the white-haired Fourth Patriarch of the Bai Family was delighted. On the surface, he pretended to be dignified and said generously, "However, since it was your disciple who was in trouble, it is understandable that you went to save him. However, you still need to discuss this matter with us in the future. You can't make rash decisions alone."
After hearing this, Luo Jianqing was so angry that he wanted to step forward and question the other party, but was stopped by Xuan Lingzi.
Xuan Lingzi asked, "Why should I discuss this with you?"
The Fourth Ancestor of the Bai Family said as a matter of course: "Because your departure from Taihua Mountain is not only related to you, but also to the people of the world."
Xuan Lingzi said softly, "Oh," and said, "I see."
The Bai Family's Fourth Ancestor's voice grew somewhat complacent. "It's good that you know you're wrong. You can correct it later. Next time, be careful not to act rashly and consider the relationship between the two clans."
Xuan Lingzi nodded slightly: "Well, there won't be a next time."
The fourth ancestor of the Bai family was stunned and asked in confusion: "There won't be a next time?"
Xuan Lingzi held the sword in one hand, gently turned his wrist, and said calmly: "Yes, from now on, there will be no more contracts."
Everyone was stunned and didn't understand what Xuan Lingzi meant.
Guanglingzi, who was standing by, laughed heartily upon seeing this and cursed, "Junior brother, you're being too tactful! You should have scolded these shameless villains without hesitation! My junior brother has trapped himself in Mount Taihua for a hundred years, not for the lives of you shameless people, but for the lives of all the people in the world! Now, my junior brother has come out of the mountain to rescue me, and you are condemning him. May I ask! Were you the ones who signed the contract with the demon clan in the first place?"
Everyone was speechless.
Guanglingzi asked again, "Did the demon tribe sign the contract because they were afraid of your power?"
Everyone was speechless.
Guanglingzi sneered, but before he could speak, Yuqingzi beside him sarcastically said, "Only the Demon Lord has the right to condemn my junior brother. You greedy people who only know how to sit back and reap the fruits of others' labor, without giving anything in return, dare to condemn my junior brother? If my junior brother hadn't trapped himself for a hundred years, who among you would have been able to enjoy a hundred years of peace!"
The Soul-Breaking Sect elder complained, "This is for the common people of the world, for all human beings..."
"Bullshit!" Guanglingzi glared. "My junior brother gave up his freedom, and the Demon Lord volunteered to guard the border. But you're saying that all of this is taken for granted? My junior brother was willing to do these things for the human race, and that's his business. Now he's violated the contract he made, so why should you, the turtles hiding behind and enjoying the peace, condemn him?"
An elder of the Bai family defended himself, "We also made contributions in the war between the two clans. We have killed the demon clan..."
Guanglingzi took a step forward angrily, and was about to speak when he was stopped by Xuanlingzi.
Xuan Lingzi glanced at Guanglingzi nonchalantly, and Guanglingzi thought his junior brother was about to soften his heart again. He angrily said, "Junior brother, how can you give in again and again? These people are enjoying the peace brought about by your and Mo Qianqiu's sacrifices, and now they want to blame you. How greedy!"
Unexpectedly, Xuan Lingzi said, "Brother, there's no need to be angry. Since they have this ability, let these people sign a contract with the demon tribe themselves."
After he finished speaking, Xuan Lingzi dragged Luo Jianqing away. After only a few steps, he whispered to Luo Jianqing, "Don't worry about these people. There are many shameless and unreasonable people in the world. Jianqing, if you make them angry, you will only make yourself angry."
The voice of these words was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough to reach everyone's ears.
It was the first time that Luo Jianqing knew that his seemingly indifferent master actually had such a decisive and resolute side. He couldn't help but laugh and nodded to Xuan Lingzi.
When the two were about to leave, Luo Jianqing suddenly remembered something and quickly turned around and said, "My master said that you must never set foot in Taihua Mountain! If you do, you will bear the consequences at your own risk!" After that, Luo Jianqing smiled and flew towards Yuxiao Peak with Xuan Lingzi in the astonished eyes of Xuan Lingzi.
After entering Yuxiao Peak, what happened next had nothing to do with Master Luo Jianqing and his disciple.
