Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 262: Chapter 262 Affectionate and Righteous_1

After all the other new Outer Disciples had gone to report to their respective stations.

Yang Cheng looked at Jin Ming and said, ”Senior Brother Jin, this Ling Xiao has a complicated background. Can we really afford to provoke him?”

”What’s there to fear? He’s just Old Baiyun’s disciple. We have the Demonflame Celestial backing us. Do we need to be scared of him?”

At this time, Li Anle had already recovered from the terrifying illusions, and his hatred for Ling Xiao was intense; therefore, he would definitely not agree to let Ling Xiao off the hook.

”Anle is right. This Ling Xiao is too arrogant. We must quash his arrogance!”

Jin Ming nodded in agreement.

”If that’s what Senior Brother Jin thinks, then I have a good idea.”

Yang Cheng suddenly said with a sinister smile.

”What idea?”

”Isn’t he staying in the same stone house as Wu Xiang? If we get Wu Xiang to put something in his water, no matter how strong he is, he’ll have no choice but to let others slaughter him. Then, Anle, you can take your revenge however you want, just don’t kill or cripple him.”

Yang Cheng said with a cold laugh.

”Isn’t that a bit too sinister?”

Jin Ming frowned and said, ”Is it necessary to go to such lengths to deal with a new Outer Disciple who has just entered the Sect?”

”Senior Brother Jin, a true man doesn’t sweat the small stuff. You’ve seen his audacity yourself. As Half-step Grandmasters and top ten Outer Disciples, it would look bad on us to directly provoke him; it might seem like bullying the weak. But if Wu Xiang makes the move, it can be done without anyone noticing.”

Yang Cheng persuaded.

”Alright, I’ll leave this matter entirely in your hands. I’ve been thinking of going into seclusion again to see if I can break through to the Transcendent Realm,” Jin Ming said after some thought.

”Senior Brother Jin really is dedicated. I’m afraid you might be the first to enter the Inner Sect. Just don’t forget about us brothers then,” Li Anle said with a smile.

”Of course not.”

After finishing the conversation, Jin Ming also left.

That afternoon, at the Moon Hua Sect Iron Mine.

”I really can’t agree to this. Junior Brother Ling has been good to me; I can’t do this kind of thing!”

Wu Xiang was called out to a secluded area by Yang Cheng and Li Anle.

Anyway, since Li Anle was in charge of the iron mine, no one would say anything even if he called someone over casually.

”Bang!”

Li Anle kicked Wu Xiang and cursed, ”Useless fool, listen well. If you don’t want to keep getting beaten up, if you don’t want to keep doing such heavy work, then just do what we tell you to.”

Yang Cheng squatted next to Wu Xiang with a sly grin and said, ”What’s there to be afraid of? It’s not poison, just something to temporarily incapacitate him. We’re not going to kill him. You just have to slip this sachet into his water, and I guarantee that no one in the Outer Sect will dare to bully you again.”

”No, no way, absolutely not!”

Wu Xiang insisted, his teeth clenched.

Though simple-minded and weak, he was principled.

”An ungrateful wretch!”

Yang Cheng’s relentless assault rained down on Wu Xiang.

Without fighting back, Wu Xiang simply protected his vitals, curling up his body.

After all, this wasn’t the first or second time such a thing had happened; he could endure it until it was over.

But this time, Yang Cheng and Li Anle really seemed to lose control, their blows without any measure of restraint.

Wu Xiang’s face grew increasingly pale, and eventually, his hands gradually stopped resisting, and his body became still.

”Stop!”

Yang Cheng suddenly ceased his assault and reached out to check Wu Xiang’s breath.

”He’s not breathing!”

”No way!”

Li Anle was also startled.

Yang Cheng inputted True Essence again to probe Wu Xiang’s condition.

”He’s really dead!”

”What should we do, Senior Brother Yang, even though he was just an Outer Disciple, it’s still not good to have him dead.”

”Don’t worry, no one cares if a few Outer Disciples die.”

Yang Cheng shook his head and said, ”Entering the Moon Hua Sect may seem glorious in the eyes of ordinary people, like a carp leaping over the Dragon Gate, and while that’s not wrong, the reality for Outer Disciples is really not good. Most of the time they’re doing menial work unless they get into the Inner Sect!”

”It seems Senior Black Rope also said something similar, that the death of one or two Outer Disciples really isn’t a big deal, as long as there are people above, the higher-ups definitely won’t investigate.”

Li Anle suddenly came to his senses, recalling what Black Rope had said.

”Right, only by becoming an Inner Sect Disciple like Senior Black Rope, can one truly be considered to have made the leap of the carp. Not only will they receive significant protection from the Sect, but they will also get access to more resources. Unlike us now, ordinary Outer Disciples only get ten Low-grade Spirit Stones and ten Spirit Pills a month.”

Yang Cheng nodded.

In comparison to the outside world, such remuneration was already quite substantial.

The value of Low-grade Spirit Stones need not be mentioned.

What’s key are those ten Spirit Pills, which are said to be more effective than the best spirit pills in the secular world.

The Qianyuan Bone Changing Pills, treasured by Master Baiyun, are basically not even ranked among the Spirit Pills of the Moon Hua Sect.

In the pitch-black night, Wu Xiang’s body was thrown by Yang Cheng and Li Anle into the depths of the mountain.

...

”Why do I feel so uneasy?”

Ling Xiao was cultivating but couldn’t settle down.

As usual, Wu Xiang hadn’t come back, and he couldn’t help but glance at the empty bed.

I must find a chance to get Senior Brother Wu back from the mine as well. He’s truly a good person.

After thinking it over, he left the stone house.

He had planned to enjoy the scenery, but when he activated Soul Entry, he unexpectedly witnessed a scene that enraged him.

Yang Cheng and Li Anle dropped Wu Xiang’s body and even kicked it a few times.

”Senior Brother Yang, why don’t we stop using poison altogether and deal with Ling Xiao the same way we did with Wu Xiang?”

Li Anle said with a smile.

”We shouldn’t touch Ling Xiao for now. We need to figure out his relationship with Elder Master Yang. That old man is protective, and if we kill Ling Xiao and provoke him to come out of retirement, things will blow up,” Yang Cheng shook his head.

”This guy is really lucky to have caught the attention of Elder Master Yang. It’s enviable.”

”Enough about that, let’s head back quickly, be careful not to be seen.”

Yang Cheng signaled to Li Anle, and the two quickly left towards the direction of the iron mine.

The place where they dumped the body was a good five or six miles from the iron mine, and with many wild animals, Monster Beasts, and even Ferocious Beasts appearing in the forest, they believed that Wu Xiang’s body would soon disappear.

”Bastards!”

Ling Xiao cursed and sped up towards the place where Wu Xiang’s body was dumped. No matter what, they had been fellow disciples, and Wu Xiang had truly been good to him; he couldn’t just watch as his body was left in the wilderness to be carried off by wild animals.

With his Cloud Dragon Divine Movement pushed to the limit, Ling Xiao’s speed was so fast that he was practically invisible. If the Outer Disciples could see him now, their jaws would certainly drop in astonishment.

”Senior Brother Wu!”

Fortunately, his speed was fast enough. When he arrived, no wild animals had approached Wu Xiang’s body yet.

”There’s still warmth in the body.”

Ling Xiao touched Wu Xiang.

Then he released his Soul Power into Wu Xiang’s body.

Even though the person was dead, as long as the soul wasn’t dead, there was still hope for salvation. He did this in the hopes of finding a chance to preserve Wu Xiang’s soul.
