Chapter 156: Li Jing, I Am Disappointed in You
“Li Jing, what a coincidence!”
A sarcastic voice rang out. Li Jing frowned tightly, looking at the group appearing before him with great impatience. “Good dogs don’t block the way.”
Gongsun Liang, Zhao Quan, and the others looked terrible. But soon, Gongsun Liang laughed again, twirling the Soul-Guiding Flute in his hand. “You dare to be so arrogant all alone?”
He sneered. “What? Think this is still your Ling Xiao Sect’s territory?”
They had followed him for a long time and discovered that Li Jing was alone the entire way.
Li Jing had just killed a troublesome Golden Core stage demon beast. Now that his spiritual energy was largely depleted, he was absolutely no match for them.
Moreover, there were so many of them, and with their Martial Uncle present, they could completely crush him.
No, not crush. Crippling him would be better than killing him.
Thinking of this, Gongsun Liang laughed, raising the magical artifact, the Soul-Guiding Flute, to his lips. “Today I want to see just how powerful the Young Sect Master of a great sect is. You were very arrogant in the past; if you can still be arrogant now, I’ll consider you tough.”
“What are you doing?”
Li Jing’s frown deepened. Seeing Zhao Quan watching from the side and Gongsun Liang preparing to attack, he realized what was happening.
“You want to kill me?” He couldn’t believe it and shouted, “You want to tear up all pretenses directly? Is this your own idea or your Chi Xiao Sect’s idea?”
Gongsun Liang: “You don’t need to know that. It doesn’t matter.”
Li Jing’s face darkened. “You dare! My Ling Xiao Sect won’t let you off.”
“Heh, aside from hanging the Ling Xiao Sect and your identity as Young Sect Master on your lips every day, what else can you do?”
“My talent is better than yours, my status is just higher than yoursâam I not allowed to speak the truth?”
Li Jing gripped the sword in his hand. “What, jealous? Envious? Can’t help it. Who told your mother to be promiscuous everywhere, not even knowing who your father is.”
Gongsun Liang already detested him, bearing full malice and intending to cripple him, preferably making his life worse than death.
Unexpectedly, Li Jing still wanted to provoke him like this.
Gongsun Liang stared deathly at Li Jing. “You filthy thing who likes menâwhat right do you have to speak about me?”
Not wanting to talk anymore, Gongsun Liang’s flute sounded. “Everyone, get him.”
Five people besieged him. The flute sound attacked his spiritual consciousness, affecting Li Jing.
Alone, he couldn’t beat so many of them.
He planned to draw out his Little Martial Uncle here, not come in to send himself to death.
Gripping his sword, Li Jing fished out the talismans and medicines they had looted earlier while resisting, throwing whatever he had.
“Why do you have our things?”
Li Jing sneered. “You guys are truly crazy with poverty; everything you see is yours.”
While speaking, his movements didn’t stop, and he didn’t forget to maintain his bravado verbally.
Ultimately, he was outmatched and beaten to the ground. Gongsun Liang finally let out a breath of relief.
“If the Ling Xiao Sect Young Sect Master is crippled, say, won’t the elders of the other peaks thank us? Perhaps Luo Wuhen, who was highly favored and the expectation of everyone back then, will also thank us for acting.”
“You’re farting! My Little Martial Uncle isn’t that kind of person. If he wanted the position of Sect Leader, he wouldn’t need to do this.”
Li Jing wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his chest heaving with anger. Gritting his teeth, he glared back viciously.
“Hahahaha, wouldn’t need to? Who didn’t know back then that the previous Sect Leader of Ling Xiao Sect was most satisfied with his youngest disciple? Yet the one who took the Sect Leader position was your father. You, this Young Sect Master, are just a waste relying on them to be arrogant.”
Gongsun Liang scoffed. “Without your father, without the Young Sect Master position, what are you?”
He put away the flute in his hand and swapped it for a sword. If he crippled the person with a sword, let’s see how they investigate.
“Do it quickly, don’t delay,” Zhao Quan said.
Gongsun Liang, Tang Yu, and the others attacked. Li Jing rolled several times on the ground, barely dodging.
Blood seeped from the wounds on his body, dyeing his clothes red. Seeing no one coming to save him, he reached into his storage bag for items, but his speed couldn’t match the opposition.
Seeing that his dantian was about to be pierced, he felt a sense of despair. He raised his sword to block, trying to minimize the injury and find a way to escape.
Boomâ!
With a loud bang, Gongsun Liang was blasted away directly. Immediately after, an arrow shot through his arm, severing it completely.
The change happened too fast; no one had time to react.
“Little Martial Uncle!!”
Seeing the arrival, Li Jing’s tears flowed instantly. A pair of eyes filled with tears looked at him. “Little Martial Uncle, you finally came.”
Hearing these words, Luo Wuhen’s face darkened even more. He didn’t pay attention to Li Jing but moved to deal with the people from the Chi Xiao Sect.
After resolving the matter, Luo Wuhen finally spoke.
“Li Jing, I am very disappointed in you.”
“Ye Shixiong, did we look in the wrong place?”
Yu Qianqian looked at the transition from the freezing dark forest to the sun-scorched desert before her. As far as the eye could see, there were hardly any bushes.
The sparse greenery looked pitiful amidst the yellow-brown earth.
Ye Jingxian looked ahead. “It should be here; it won’t be wrong.”
Bai Dou was panting rapidly from the heat, lying listlessly on Ye Jingxian’s shoulder. It nodded, babbling while pointing ahead.
“Bai Dou says it’s ahead, so it should be ahead,” Lin Qingyue said. “It’s just surprising that the Millennium Soul Nourishing Wood grows in this kind of place.”
Extreme Yang emerging from Yin. Both the climate and the orientation were indeed correct.
But where was the Millennium Soul Nourishing Wood? They couldn’t even see a single tree right now.
“Books record that the leaves of the Soul Nourishing Wood possess great spiritual charm. Trees with spiritual charm are very green, full of spiritual energy, and vibrant with life. It shouldn’t be hard to find such a tree in this kind of place, right?” Lin Qingyue said uncertainly.
It was so hot here that after speaking two sentences, he had to fan himself quickly, to the point of using spiritual energy to cool down.
Ye Jingxian stood closer to him, creating a protective shield for him with his spiritual energy.
Yu Qianqian looked pitifully at her two Senior Brothers and blinked. “Senior Brothers, there’s also me.”
Ye Jingxian turned his head and set up a protective shield for her as well. “Yu Shimei, you and Xiao Shidi go back and wait for me.”
Lin Qingyue wanted to say okay, but considering his Da Shixiong was looking for the Millennium Soul Nourishing Wood for him, it would be unkind for him and Yu Qianqian to go back first. He also wasn’t at ease.
If he went with Ye Jingxian and left Yu Qianqian behind, and an accident happened, they wouldn’t be able to save her in time.
“No. None of us are familiar with this place, and the climate is unpredictable. It’s better to stay together than separate.”
Ye Jingxian was about to refute him when an accident happened in the next second.
Lin Qingyue truly hated itâwhatever he thought of, happened. They hadn’t even separated yet, and danger found them first.
