Chapter 1198: Chapter 625: Deep aning
At this mont, Xie Xiong had finally recovered from his shock and imdiately realized that his situation was extrely dire.
After all, the four of them had been in hot pursuit of the severely wounded siblings Liang Zhuoying, which should have been an easy catch.
At least back then, they had the upper hand, and it was an overwhelming advantage.
However, the appearance of Lin Tianhu and the other two had changed everything.
Now, three out of the four had perished, even the highest in cultivation realm, Luo Xiao, had been killed.
Up to now, only he remained alive, and he was seriously injured.
Given his current state, not to ntion annihilating anyone on the opposing side, even preserving his own life was in jeopardy.
After all, there were five people on the other side, and at this mont, all were present.
Apart from the heavily exhausted Liang Zhuoying, the rest had substantial combat strength left.
Facing such an overwhelming advantage, even if he had the strength of three n and six arms, it would be very difficult to escape from their hands.
It could be said that the tide has completely turned.
As for the situation of Xie Xiong and the others, it shifted from an advantageous group at the beginning to a disadvantaged individual.
Understanding this, Xie Xiong felt a mix of shock and anger in his heart, and regret naturally arose.
“Could it be that this is Liang Zhuoying’s destiny not to die?”
“Or is this the death tribulation of my life?”
Xie Xiong sighed to himself, his entire being plunged into a brief spell of doubt.
After returning to his senses, Xie Xiong looked around and saw Liang Zhuoying and her brother, as well as Lin Tianhu and the other two surrounding him, with all their gazes fixed on him, their expressions devoid of any emotion.
Seeing this, Xie Xiong wore a bitter smile and then let out a light sigh.
Imdiately after, Xie Xiong straightened himself and then slowly spoke out.
“Friends Liang and the others, at this point, speaking any further is aningless.”
“However, although my defeat is certain and it’s impossible to escape unscathed from your hands…”
“Now that it has co to this, surely there’s no harm in speaking a few more words, right?”
“How about we negotiate properly, see if we can turn hostility into friendship, or perhaps collaborate?”
After finishing his speech, Xie Xiong looked earnestly at Liang Zhuoying and Lin Tianhu, his eyes carrying a plea for rcy.
At that mont, Lin Tianfeng, who was beside him, heard Xie Xiong’s words and his face darkened as he questioned.
“Heh… do you now realize the predicant you are in?”
“If you knew this day would co, why act the way you did at the beginning?”
“Now you want to negotiate, to collaborate with us?”
“It’s too late!”
Hearing this, Xie Xiong’s face suddenly turned dark and angry.
However, he still suppressed his inner impulse and turned his gaze towards Liang Zhuoying on the other side.
Because he was well aware that the stance of these cultivators with unknown origins like Lin Tianfeng was not that important to him.
After all, he knew of Liang Zhuoying’s identity, and the entire Liang Family had substantial influence in the Jin Feng Country Cultivation World and even the whole Qingzhou.
To the Liang Family, any Golden Core Stage Cultivator would have to give so regard.
And the identities of Liang Zhuoying and her brother as direct descendants, along with their considerable cultivation strength, were not to be underestimated.
With such a background, he naturally placed greater importance on Liang Zhuoying’s attitude.
Besides, there was another reason: the Liang Family Territory, if nothing unexpected had happened, was likely already under attack by their four major forces.
And he currently had so information in his hands that could be of significant use to both Liang Zhuoying and the entire Liang Family.
Therefore, he wanted to use this information as leverage to negotiate for a chance for Liang Zhuoying to let bygones be bygones and spare his life.
Thus, Xie Xiong had such an attitude at this mont.
In fact, it seed that Liang Zhuoying had also anticipated the calamity that had befallen her family.
She was clear in her heart that their treasure-seeking mission had been well-planned, took a long ti, and was highly secretive.
To say that under such tight secrecy, Luo Xiao and the other three cultivators from different forces could coordinate an ambush on their return path right as they succeeded, was too peculiar and abnormal.
According to her guess, a significant change must have happened within Jin Feng Country in this recent period.
And the fact that Luo Xiao, Xie Xiong, and the other three from different forces gathered at the sa ti and appeared in such a place, must an that the higher-ups had already made a secret alliance.
Beyond that, the things planned by the Liang Family and their itinerary had been leaked.
Continuing from this line of thought, the Liang Family Territory must have been a target of their sches during their ambush.
If so, then the cooperation ntioned by Xie Xiong might indeed allow the Liang Family to obtain sothing valuable.
Even if it was just so information, it could be of vital importance to the Liang Family.
Compared to these considerations, the issue of Xie Xiong’s life and death seed less significant.
With these thoughts, the resolve of Liang Zhuoying to eradicate Xie Xiong, one of the instigators of her plight, suddenly wavered.
Consequently, Liang Zhuoying pondered for a split second and then spoke out.
“Friend Xie, you are a smart person. Speak your mind!”
“If what you say has value, I might not be without the possibility of letting you off.”
Upon hearing these words, Xie Xiong’s expression beca complex, and he seed to hesitate inwardly.
