”How are you handling this?”

The Commander of the Mansion Guards said coldly.

The small guard leader of the mansion shuddered and extended his right arm where his hand had been cut off.

Seeing this, the Commander of the Mansion Guards suddenly understood.

He looked at Ling Xiao, frowned, and said, ”Did you do this?”

Ling Xiao nodded and said, ”That’s right, he barged into a guest elder’s room, disturbing my cultivation. I was already being quite merciful by not killing him.”

”Hmph, you’re quite ruthless! But let’s not talk about that for now. Did you cause chaos at the Secret Realm Academy, snatch away two criminals, and kill Boye Liuli?”

The Commander of the Mansion Guards snorted coldly.

”Criminals? It seems the Commander might have misunderstood something. I was merely rescuing my two friends, not any criminals!

As for Boye Liuli, yes, I did kill her, so what?”

Ling Xiao had no fondness for this Commander of the Mansion Guards and had no intention of cultivating any.

”Your friends are criminals; that’s indisputable!

This is the Wisdom Sage King Mansion, how can we allow criminals to enter!”

The Commander of the Mansion Guards was even more infuriated as Ling Xiao ignored him, and his voice turned icy.

”I don’t want to hear the word ’criminal’ again from you. Hope you remember that or even Chen Canglan won’t be able to protect you!”

Fierce killing intent emanated from Ling Xiao’s eyes.

If they called him a criminal, it would be understandable since he had killed Wu Ming and others.

But to say Lin Ruo Xian and Yue Shang were criminals was like an obvious insult!

He couldn’t accept that.

”How dare you!”

The Commander of the Mansion Guards shouted, ”You dare call His Highness by name, courting death!”

The people around, whether guest elders of the mansion or disciples from the Secret Realm Academy following the man in black, found it unfathomable that he dared to defy the Commander of the Mansion Guards, even calling the Wise and Virtuous King’s name directly.

”This guy is interesting, too bad after being used, he must die anyway.”

One of the guest elders sneered.

The orders from the Wise and Virtuous King were very simple.

He wanted Ling Xiao and the Boye Family to mutually harm each other and then clean up the aftermath by executing Ling Xiao.

”Hahaha, what grand authority, the Wise and Virtuous King has really declined over the years, hasn’t he? Even a lapdog dares to run rampant without a regard for the Mansion’s Commander of the Guards?”

The man in black suddenly burst into laughter, filled with a strong sense of ridicule, looking at the Commander of the Mansion Guards.

This was not just ridicule but also a provocation.

Although the Commander of the Guards knew this, his expression still turned very unpleasant.

Ling Xiao showed him no face, calling the Wise and Virtuous King by name in front of so many people.

How could he step down from this?

”Even if you are a favored guest elder of His Highness, you cannot bring trouble to His Highness.

Lord Lei has ordered that you and those two criminals be taken in for questioning immediately, if not, don’t blame me for being rude!”

An angry look filled the face of the Commander of the Guards, and the intent to kill spread constantly, showing signs of about to make a move.

But before he could move, Ling Xiao already sent him flying with a single palm strike.

He fell directly into the crowd, looking quite embarrassed.

”I said, I don’t want to hear you call my friends criminals again!

Are you even fit to be the Commander of the Mansion Guards for the Wise and Virtuous King? It’s simply laughable!

Even though the Boye Family is one of the Eight Great Families, compared to the Wise and Virtuous King, they are worlds apart. Yet now they stride into the Wise and Virtuous King Mansion showing off.

You not only don’t drive them away but instead accommodate them, coming to cause trouble for me, a guest elder of the mansion.

Do you think you have any authority?

Little do you know every single thing you do is being mocked by the Boye Family, you are a coward to the extreme!”

Ling Xiao’s words silenced all the mansion’s soldiers and guest elders.

Though his words were a bit harsh, they were not without reason.

Indeed, ignoring what Ling Xiao had done, the other party barged into the mansion, which was a great crime.

As the Commander of the Mansion Guards, the most appropriate action would be to expel the enemies from the mansion first and then discuss handing over Ling Xiao and the other two.

Yet while this principle was understood, Ling Xiao was the only one daring enough to speak it outright.

The Commander of the Mansion Guards was not weak; although he was suddenly sent flying by Ling Xiao, he was not seriously injured.

He stood up, releasing a terrifying aura that kept expanding.

He was actually a late-stage martial artist of the First Cycle of the Yin-Yang Realm’s tenth layer.

Though inferior to the man in black, he was not far behind; admitting defeat in itself was an extremely lowly act.

”You court death!”

The Commander of the Mansion Guards’ anger almost wholly vented onto Ling Xiao.

”Courting death? I wouldn’t mind a great fight with you, but if you have any true courage!

If you’re truly as strong as you portray, throw these intruders out first.

If not, then shut up, and keep your mouth closed!

Just be a coward and don’t let me see you yelling at me again!”

”Impudent!”

By this time, the Commander of the Mansion Guards was already filled with rage.

Although he knew Ling Xiao was right, he couldn’t afford to offend Thunder Venerate, so he absolutely dared not attack the Boye Family members.

He could only vent his anger on Ling Xiao.

At that moment, he drew the long knife at his waist, terrifying sword energy soaring to the sky.

The whole space was filled with a powerful sense of killing intent.

Ling Xiao must die!

How dare he insult him so!

”Don’t worry, after I kill you, these people will be dealt with. It’s just a pity you can’t see it!”

”Kill me? Do you dare?”

Ling Xiao sneered, flipping his hand: ”He has Lord Lei’s Token; I have the token of your master Chen Canglan. Do you want to take a closer look?”

Seeing the token in Ling Xiao’s hand, the crowd couldn’t help but gasp.

Even the Commander of the Mansion Guards was a bit perplexed.

What exactly did his master, the Wise and Virtuous King, mean?

”Back in the Eight Immortals County City, I was invited by the Wise and Virtuous King to Thunder City, residing in the Wisdom Sage King Mansion.

For convenience in my actions, the Wise and Virtuous King granted me this token.

Saying that as long as I stayed within the mansion, nothing would happen.

But now it seems, that was complete nonsense; here I am, not only being chased by outsiders but also attacked by the Commander of the Guards himself, utterly laughable.”

Ling Xiao’s words left those at the Wisdom Sage King Mansion with burning faces.

No matter how Ling Xiao stood, they indeed did not protect him well.

A guest elder holding the Wise and Virtuous King’s token was actually being bullied by others, speaking of this would indeed bring the Wise and Virtuous King great shame.

The Commander of the Mansion Guards stood there stupefied, his expression extremely stiff.

The token was clearly genuine; it bore the Wise and Virtuous King’s aura, absolutely not a fake.

With this token, as long as staying within the mansion, no matter what crime was committed, full protection must be provided.

Yet, he was instead dealing with Ling Xiao, which was truly embarrassing.

But to have him protect Ling Xiao, he couldn’t do it.

Because Ling Xiao attacked him, insulted him, if he admits defeat now, how could he command respect in the future?

How could he stand in the Wisdom Sage King Mansion?

Upon thinking this, the face of the Commander of the Guards quickly darkened, and he planned to go all out.
