"What? Let her go!?" Princess Hua Shao said displeasedly, "Wang Xiaoqiang, killing Ghost Cultivators is the duty of us Human Cultivators. Now that this Ghost King's daughter has fallen into our hands, you actually want to let her go?..."
"Don't forget, she just saved you," Wang Xiaoqiang replied. "One shouldn't be ungrateful, shouldn't be heartless..."
"She saved only because of your face, right?" Princess Hua Shao's gaze shifted between Wang Xiaoqiang and Little i, her tone full of jealousy... "Wang Xiaoqiang, you're not loyal and righteous; you're too sentintal. You're so sentintal that it's indiscriminate; you, you actually developed feelings for a Ghost Race woman..."
"Hua Shao, what nonsense are you talking about?" Wang Xiaoqiang thought this woman's jealousy was simply unreasonable.
"I'm not talking nonsense!" Princess Hua Shao said indignantly, "Don't forget, she's the Ghost King's daughter. If this matter gets out, what fate will befall you? You will be discredited! You will beco a traitor colluding with Ghost Cultivators! Don't speak of Yueyang Academy, even the entire Yellow Dragon Empire, the entire Immortal Realm, will be against you... You will be the public enemy of the entire Human Clan! You will be beyond redemption!!"
Princess Hua Shao looked furious, continuing, "Wang Xiaoqiang, don't bla for being harsh, I'm thinking of you..."
"Only we ten people know about this, as long as everyone doesn't speak out, it will be fine," Wang Xiaoqiang said, glancing at the other students.
The other eight students remained silent.
Indeed, killing Ghost Cultivators is the duty of Human Cultivators, deliberately exiling without killing is dereliction, but since Little i is so loyal and righteous, they also felt unwilling to act heartlessly.
"If you can't do it, I'll be the villain!" Duke Hua Shao's face suddenly showed killing intent as he condensed a ball of Soldier Aura in his hand, striking towards Little i's forehead.
Little i closed her eyes, displaying a look of calm acceptance of death.
Wang Xiaoqiang waved away Princess Hua Shao's hand, resolutely saying, "I said I would protect her, and I will, even if the next mont I descend into Hell!"
Wang Xiaoqiang spoke, then said to Little i, "Hurry up and leave, the Ghost King has already fled to the Netherworld, you've lost your protection here. You must leave this place far behind. Find other shelter!"
Little i's face showed a shock at this, not expecting Wang Xiaoqiang not only would not kill her but also consider her environnt. At this mont, the humiliation she felt at Wang Xiaoqiang's place completely dissipated, replaced by a sense of gratitude.
She nodded, turned around, and left.
She quickly walked out of the prison.
When Princess Hua Shao's face turned cold and chased after Little i, she was stopped at the prison gate by Fang Qiu, who said, "Hua Shao, let it go, a Ghost Cultivator isn't worth your jealousy..."
Upon hearing this, Hua Shao felt ashad and exclaid, "Senior Brother Fang, what do you an? I, I'm not..."
Before Princess Hua Shao finished her sentence, Fang Qiu interrupted, speaking in a voice only two people could hear, "To save you, Wang Xiaoqiang spared no cost and almost lost his life."
Hearing this, Princess Hua Shao was stunned and then she let go of her anger.
Upon reflection, she also felt she was sowhat excessive, no need to bicker over a Ghost Cultivator.
When the ten students ca out of the prison, the disciples of Ghost King Sect had already fled, leaving the Ghost King Sect suddenly empty, silent as a grave.
"Wow, Little Qiang, I really didn't expect that your strength would have reached such heights?" As they walked out of Ghost King Sect, Fang Qiu comnted with so admiration, patting Wang Xiaoqiang's shoulder.
The other students also secretly observed Wang Xiaoqiang, all with looks of curiosity and awe.
The scene of Wang Xiaoqiang fighting the Ghost Spirit was still vivid in their minds, and everyone doubted his incredible combat power, because Wang Xiaoqiang shouldn't have terrifying strength like that.
Wang Xiaoqiang knew that it was a force unleashed by the Alien Blood Energy, but he couldn't explain it to everyone, so he deflected by saying, "Actually, that Ghost Spirit, looked quite powerful and terrifying, but was just a paper tiger, all show no substance, didn't have much power..."
Fang Qiu secretly shook his head upon hearing this, and the other students didn't believe it, but didn't press the issue.
They refraining from asking was best, Wang Xiaoqiang feared this topic would co up again, so he quickly walked a few paces to the pagoda under Ghost King Sect, looking up at the pagoda only to see Vengeful Spirits still watching from above, as if waiting for sothing. When they saw him coming, they lowered their eyes.
Wang Xiaoqiang called out to them, "Hey, aren't you leaving? The Ghost King has fled to the Netherworld, you've regained your freedom!"
The Vengeful Spirits bowed to the students, gratefully saying, "Thank you, thank you all for driving away the Ghost King, allowing us to obtain freedom. Till we et again!"
"Till we et again!" The students all bowed to bid farewell to the Vengeful Spirits, who gratefully gazed at the students and then flew away happily like birds.
Originally, these Vengeful Spirits were waiting there specially to thank and bid farewell.
Seeing the Vengeful Spirits regain their freedom, the students felt happy, glad for them.
After leaving the Ghost King Sect, the students discussed the next actions, resulting in a split in opinions,
So students suggested staying in Ghost Territory to kill Ghost Cultivators, arguing that with the Ghost King and nurous elite Ghost Soldiers fleeing to the Netherworld, the Ghost Territory was leaderless, extrely empty, why not take this opportunity to sweep through and severely damage the Ghost Cultivators' Vital Energy!
So students hoped to retreat, not wanting to remain in Ghost Territory for more battles, due to exhaustion from ten days of fighting, being too weary to continue.
After a round of debate, opinions were still not unified, Fang Qiu asked Wang Xiaoqiang, "Little Qiang, why aren't you expressing yourself, do you want to go back, or stay in Ghost Territory to continue sweeping...?"
Everyone's gaze was fixed on Wang Xiaoqiang; all believed that with Wang Xiaoqiang's personality, he should advocate staying to continue the sweep,
But Wang Xiaoqiang's answer surprised everyone, Wang Xiaoqiang said, "Soone just ntioned the Ghost King and his elite forces have gone to the Netherworld, the Ghost Territory is leaderless, plunged into emptiness, a good chance to continue sweeping down, and I want to ntion because of this, there's no need for us to sweep down anymore. Let everyone not forget our initial intention of coming to Ghost Territory...
Ghost Cultivators plague our Human Clan people, cruelly and ruthlessly, but there are Ghost Cultivators who advocate peace, there are won like Princess i who are kind, I think our purpose in coming here is for peace, not killing, but to ensure peace for the surrounding people near Ghost Territory,
The Ghost King's departure greatly weakened the Ghost Race forces, now Ghost Cultivators are hiding, lacking courage to harm our Human Clan again... So our goal has been achieved, no need to continue further."
Wang Xiaoqiang's words caused everyone to nod in agreent, finally reaching a unified decision to retreat.
Fang Qiu released the Golden Page, the Golden Page ford into the Flying Boat, everyone boarded the Golden Leaf Flying Boat to return.
Ca with ten people, returned with ten people, although most of the students were injured, fortunately none were fatal, after returning to recuperate they would recover,
The zero death rate filled everyone with relief, plus this training received unexpected results, not only severely striking the rampant arrogance of Ghost Cultivators, but also greatly drained their Vital Energy. Of course, mainly scaring away the Ghost King and his elite followers, reducing their influence greatly, in this way ensuring the safety of the surrounding people near Ghost Territory.
Thinking about this brought joy to the students, also instilling a sense of accomplishnt, of course Wang Xiaoqiang contributed the most, and in everyone's heart, there was hidden admiration.
