Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

”Then you can try. Killing you is like killing a dog! I have always believed that the Sect is a fair place.

If you attack me and the Sect turns a blind eye, then this Sect is not worth staying in. I will let the world know what a filthy place Eight Immortals Mountain is.”

Ling Xiao was not afraid of Sha Hai at all.

If it were Mo Fei Yu, he wouldn’t provoke like this, but as for Sha Hai, he really wanted to have a go. Although he wasn’t entirely confident of winning, he was certain he wouldn’t lose.

So there was no need to be afraid.

Moreover, once he uses all his strength, Ling Xiao is absolutely confident in defeating the opponent, even killing him.

Only then he would probably have to leave here.

”You sharp-tongued brat. If I don’t teach you a lesson today, it seems you truly don’t understand what’s good for you.”

Sha Hai was a person who could endure a lot, but facing Ling Xiao, he truly felt he couldn’t hold back anymore.

He wanted to unleash, explode, and let Ling Xiao know the meaning of fear.

”Everyone, stop and take a look at where you are. This is the Reward Good and Punish Evil Hall!”

Suddenly, a cold voice rang out.

From outside the door, an elder in a long robe, with a stern expression, shouted.

”Salute to the Outer Hall Master!”

Seeing this elder, everyone bowed respectfully.

Ling Xiao was no exception.

Greeting Sha Hai was impossible but respecting elders was a duty.

What’s more, this Outer Hall Master of the Reward Good and Punish Evil Hall had unfathomable strength.

Sha Hai glared fiercely at Ling Xiao before hurriedly retracting the Primordial Power circulating in his hands.

He was so angry just now that he nearly forgot this was a most special place.

The Reward Good and Punish Evil Hall certainly wouldn’t care whether he was a disciple of the Eight Great Ancient Clans. This was where Eight Immortals Mountain enforced its rules, usually, it would never act with bias, at least not openly.

Otherwise, this Sect would truly collapse.

”Get to your tasks and stop gathering here!”

The elder shouted sharply again.

Everyone responded immediately.

Evidently, this Outer Hall Master was usually very impartial.

After most people left, the elder looked at Ling Xiao and said indifferently: ”Was it you who hit Red Yan Er’s face?”

”Yes, I did.”

Ling Xiao admitted directly.

This surprised the elder a little.

”Do you know the consequences of hitting someone here in the Reward Good and Punish Evil Hall?”

”I don’t know, but she insulted me and I couldn’t stand it anymore!”

Ling Xiao replied.

”Even so, you shouldn’t have acted here. According to the rules, you are penalized with a month’s work as a free laborer at the Reward Good and Punish Evil Hall, and fined ten thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones. Do you accept?”

The elder continued.

”I don’t accept!”

What a joke, Ling Xiao had to prepare for the trial at the Ghost Prison, where would he have time to do miscellaneous labor here?

”You don’t accept?”

Upon hearing this, not only was the elder stunned, but Sha Hai and Red Yan Er who had not left yet were also stunned.

Such a bold guy, even daring to contradict the Outer Hall Master.

”Hall Master, could I replace the punishment with something else?”

Ling Xiao asked.

”Do you think punishment is a business transaction? But according to the rules of the Reward Good and Punish Evil Hall, it is indeed possible to do some things to avoid punishment, although I doubt you can handle it.”

The elder found this young man audacious yet interesting, gaining somewhat of an interest.

Actually, this was not his first focus on Ling Xiao.

In fact, this elder had become interested in Ling Xiao when Ling Xiao killed Shen Chong during the assessment task, wiped out the Mo Clan, and uncovered the plot of the Demon Shadow Sect.

His recent intervention was half due to wanting to help Ling Xiao because he too believed Ling Xiao couldn’t beat Sha Hai.

If Sha Hai really killed Ling Xiao, there would be punishment, but the Sha Clan would certainly find ways to reduce that punishment, and eventually, it would likely end in nothingness.

Such was reality.

Because, in truth, Eight Immortals Mountain was the united property of the Eight Great Ancient Clans. Could these clans tolerate their disciples being killed?

”Hall Master, could you tell me? Maybe I can handle it.”

”Do you understand Array Formations?”

”I do, of course, not extremely proficient but fairly well.”

Ling Xiao humbly replied.

”Alright, if you can repair the Array Formation outside the Reward Good and Punish Evil Hall Outer Hall, the punishment will be waived.”

The elder nodded, then turned to give Red Yan Er a pill, saying: ”Yan Er, take this pill, it will heal your face. But remember, no matter how humble a person may seem, they have dignity. A rabbit will bite when desperate, let alone Martial Artists.”

This approach somewhat favored Ling Xiao, but did not violate the rules.

Of course, he did give Red Yan Er some benefits.

After Red Yan Er took the pill, her face instantly healed, and her anger faded.

”Ling Xiao, if you’re a man, meet me on the Life and Death Platform tomorrow! Sign a Life and Death Contract, let’s settle this!”

Sha Hai suddenly threw down the words and left with Red Yan Er.

He realized this Outer Hall’s Head Master Lin was clearly biased towards Ling Xiao, and given that Head Master Lin is related to Lin Ruoxian, they are from the Lin Family.

Staying here wouldn’t yield anything positive, so he decided to leave.

And throwing down a harsh word, not even waiting for Ling Xiao’s response.

If Ling Xiao goes tomorrow, he naturally can kill Ling Xiao.

If Ling Xiao does not go, then, of course, he can widely proclaim Ling Xiao is not a man and unfit to be called a man.

Besides, there’s also the trial in the Ghost Prison, he still has chances to kill Ling Xiao.

”Sigh, you’ve stirred up trouble with Red Yan Er, and offended Sha Hai. You lad, life won’t be easy from now on.”

Head Master Lin sighed, looking at Ling Xiao and said, ”If I didn’t see potential in you, I would not want to offend the Sha Clan.”

”Hehe, Head Master Lin, you helped me today, I will surely repay you in the future. The Array Formation outside the Reward Good and Punish Evil Hall should be the simplest ’Chaos Vajra Array’, right? I was trapped by this formation when in North Mount Town.

Don’t worry, just leave it to me, I guarantee to repair the formation within one shichen.”

Ling Xiao chuckled.

He naturally knew offending Red Yan Er meant offending the Red Immortal Mountain Master Chi Lian.

That Chi Lian was the strongest among the eight Lower Baxian Mountain Masters.

Certainly, it wouldn’t be pleasant.

But so what?

Fear of offending that woman, and therefore endure Red Yan Er’s insults today?

Ling Xiao was not that cowardly.

”Will you go to the Life and Death Platform tomorrow?”

Head Master Lin asked again.

”I’m not his dog, that since Sha Hai says Life and Death Platform then I go? Am I so idle?”

Ling Xiao pursed his lips.

His goal is to kill Sha Hai during the Ghost Prison trial, and that plan won’t change.

Because even on the platform, after signing the Life and Death Contract, people would still know you killed Sha Hai, and they would still come after you.

But in the Ghost Prison, it’s different, however Sha Hai dies, as long as it’s done cleverly, nobody would know.
