Ling Xiao pleaded for rcy on behalf of Ming Tian and the two others because he naturally wanted to deal with these three personally.
Moreover, Bai Feifei could not die yet, as she must be brought before Master Baiyun.
There were still many secrets on Tantai Lingzi, and it was imperative to get to the bottom of them.
As for Ming Tian, he would personally handle the expulsion of traitors for Master Baiyun!
"Alright, since you’ve said so much, our sect agrees!"
Wu Xiang nodded in agreent.
"I also agree!"
Chang Yueying initially didn’t wish to kill these three, as no matter how you looked at it, they were all rare talents of the Moon Hua Sect, and it would be a pity to kill them.
Especially since the Four Sects Martial Competition and the Sacred Dynasty Martial Arts Festival were about to comnce, killing these three at this juncture would be a severe blow to the Moon Hua Sect’s vitality.
"Thank you, Sect Master! Thank you, Chairman!"
The three people, however, did not thank Ling Xiao.
Because they were well aware that Ling Xiao was not the kind to easily let them off.
And so, what began as an aggressive inquiry ended with an outco nobody had expected.
The disciples who had slandered and maligned Ling Xiao, aside from Ming Tian, Tantai Lingzi, and Bai Feifei, were all executed.
Including Situ Jun, Wang Nan, Liu Lie, Wu Yang, Qin Wu, and many others, totaling several dozen.
Afterward, Wu Xiang ignited a third fire when he announced that in half a month’s ti, Ling Xiao, Dai Yuling, and Shangguan Lei would participate in the top ten core disciples’ ranking.
The qualification they had been stripped of was reclaid.
Once the matter was settled, Ling Xiao left with the Moon Lady, leaving the Sect’s internal affairs to be a headache for Wu Xiang and others; he wouldn’t trouble himself with it.
His most important goal now was to enhance his strength quickly; he couldn’t always rely on the disobedient spirit.
Before long, Ling Xiao arrived at the Moon Lady’s sleeping chamber.
This place was actually located at the top of the Moon Blossom Pagoda; within the sect, no one else had ever entered, including the previous Sect Leaders.
The decor of the sleeping chamber wasn’t overly luxurious, but it was very cozy, creating a particularly comfortable ambiance.
"You didn’t obtain the Black Dragon Martial Soul inheritance inside the Moon Blossom Pagoda, did you?" the Moon Lady casually laughed as soon as Ling Xiao sat down.
In front of Ling Xiao, she beca very relaxed, just reclining lazily on a soft cushion, looking extrely alluring and charming.
Ling Xiao responded with a bitter smile, "Ah, I can’t hide anything from Sister Moon, but I am still curious, how did you see through ?"
The Moon Lady spoke with a hint of pride, "Isn’t it obvious? I’ve been overseeing the Pagoda Climbing Ceremony for tens of thousands of years. If you were able to enter the fifth level, you must have received a truly remarkable Martial Soul inheritance at the fourth level; otherwise, Sister Moon would not have agreed to et you."
Ling Xiao smiled and did not speak, but a huge phantom erged behind him, and then a fearso dragon’s aura spread throughout the sleeping chamber.
"Ancient Hell Dragon Martial Spirit!"
The Moon Lady, who was previously lounging comfortably, also stood up in surprise.
She had considered that Ling Xiao might have received a Martial Soul inheritance stronger than the Black Dragon Martial Spirit, but she never imagined that Ling Xiao would have obtained one of the Nine Great Ancient Dragon Souls!
Such luck was simply against the heavens!
"How about it, Sister Moon, this inheritance is decent enough, isn’t it?" Ling Xiao said with a smile.
"Decent enough?"
The Moon Lady was on the verge of madness.
This kid must be doing it on purpose, right? One of the Nine Great Dragon Spirits, the strongest Martial Soul inheritance besides the Ancient Golden Dragon Martial Soul and the Mountain and River Martial Soul.
And he just called it decent?
"Forget it, since you have taken first place in the Pagoda Climbing Ceremony and obtained the Dragon Soul Inheritance of the Ancient Hell Dragon, you are now qualified to beco my disciple!"
With a wry smile, the Moon Lady said, "You, my friend, might just beco the most outstanding martial artist in the history of Moon Hua Sect, perhaps even surpassing Sister Moon."
"Sorry, Sister Moon, I’ve said before that I won’t take you as my master. I want to marry you!"
Ling Xiao said with a cheery smile.
"Are you serious?"
The Moon Lady thought Ling Xiao was just making a joke before, but she didn’t expect the youngster to be so earnest about it.
"Sister Moon, I wouldn’t joke about such a matter," Ling Xiao said with a very serious and solemn face.
"You’re still young, and you’ve seen too few good won. Making a decision now might be a bit premature. How about this—when you’re eighteen, if you still have these thoughts, co find , and I’ll agree to it," she suggested.
To say the Moon Lady had no feelings for Ling Xiao was impossible.
Back in the Fulong Mountain Range, they had truly faced life and death together; in terms of trust, in terms of intimacy, only the Moon Blossom Fairy could compare.
But what she feared most was that Ling Xiao’s words were just child’s play, which may not hold true as he grew older.
"So be it!"
Ling Xiao nodded and said, "My cultivation level is still too poor right now; I don’t even have the strength to protect my own woman. If I married you, I would probably need you to protect , which of course wouldn’t do. So, let it be at eighteen—by that ti, I expect my cultivation level won’t be weaker than yours!"
The Moon Lady didn’t doubt his words one bit.
The speed of Ling Xiao’s cultivation level improvent was simply too fast, to a degree that left one completely dumbfounded.
She even suspected that the kid might be the reincarnation of so powerful figure from the Ancient Era.
"Alright, before that ti cos, let’s address each other as brother and sister. The path you’re taking is completely different from mine. Other than so martial arts knowledge I can impart to you, most things I can’t teach you. You’ll have to comprehend them yourself."
The Moon Lady regained her previous smile and said, "In half a month, you must make it into the ranks of core disciples, at least the top four. Only then will you be qualified to participate in the contest between the four sects. Then, let those who look down on others see that a genius isn’t just a title given by others. It’s earned by fighting for it!"
As for Ling Xiao, the Moon Lady was not worried at all.
Though he may seem arrogant and unruly on the surface, his thoughts are exceedingly ticulous.
She even suspected that she herself might have been calculated by this young man—but it was a kind-hearted sche.
And how could one say that a woman’s intuition wasn’t truly sharp?
It even turned out to be right on the mark.
The appearance of the Moon Blossom Fairy was actually a play directed by Ling Xiao.
However, apart from Ling Xiao himself, no one else knew what was really going on.
Compared with Ling Xiao, what could Ming Tian, Tantai Lingzi, Bai Feifei, and others count for?
So possessed petty cleverness;
So were foolish;
While so simply lacked principles.
Ling Xiao was decisively lethal but also adhered to his bottom line, rarely harming innocent people.
Because of this, though he had many enemies within the sect, he also had many friends who were willing to stand by his side when it mattered.
That was sothing truly rare.
"The contest between the four sects?"
Ling Xiao was taken aback for a mont; after coming to Moon Hua Sect, he hadn’t heard of such an event.
Although the contest involved the Divine Sword Sect, he really didn’t know about it—he had spent most of his ti cultivating, and many people, out of care, hadn’t managed to pass on such information to him.
"By the tone of your voice, it seems that being among the top four core disciples isn’t a problem for you?" The Moon Lady asked with a smile.
