A Demon’s Path

Speaking of this secret thousands of years ago, Cheng Qiantai's expression was still very ugly: "Yes. In order to reassure the Seven Holy Lands, the senior head killed five hundred relatives and direct disciples related to him in one go. Cleaned up..."

"Kill them all?" Ling Xiao, Cheng Yu, and Li Yuanhuan's faces turned pale. Just hearing this ruthlessness makes people shudder!

"Well, this senior left only one soul stone for the next head of the Beimin faction, and this soul stone has been recognized by the people of the seven holy places, and after confirming that no information about this treasure has been left, Only then has the inheritance of the Beimin School been passed down." Cheng Gantai sighed as he spoke, appearing quite helpless.

Ling Xiao sneered and said, "But who knows, has that soul stone been tampered with by the Seven Holy Lands? Otherwise, with the strength of the Beimin faction at that time, how could there be so few skills left behind? The so-called Seven Holy Lands are also They're just some suspicious and insidious villains."

Cheng Qiantai acquiesced to Ling Xiao's statement. Although he never said anything on the surface, it did not mean that he had no opinion on this past incident.

Ling Xiao went on to say: "Master, forgive me, that senior killed his relatives in order to fulfill his reputation of integrity, and decided his relatives' life and death with his own thoughts, it is really unfair to his relatives! It would be fine if they died in the hands of the enemy, but they actually died in the hands of their closest relatives, and they are those illusory things that can't be mentioned at all, it's too ****!"

Li Yuanhuan suddenly said: "Perhaps considering the overall situation, this senior's approach is correct. If the suspicion continues like that, cracks will appear between the sects of soul masters, and the meaning of this soul barrier will no longer exist."

Ling Xiao said bitterly: "I don't care! I just want my people to live well, and I don't care what they do! Those guys talk nicely, but they are more selfish than anyone else in their hearts! Who dares to touch me School, I'll let whoever finishes the game!"

Ling Xiao was really on fire this time, and she spoke without any scruples.

It was the first time he heard that the Beimin faction had such a bitter past, and from the standpoint of the Beimin faction, he couldn't help feeling a little more hatred towards the Seven Holy Lands.

Anyway, Ling Xiao didn't have a good impression of the Seven Great Sacred Lands in the first place, and he was the one he would deal with in the future. Naturally, he had nothing to worry about if he said something harsh here.

Cheng Qiantai looked at his two most proud disciples with an uncertain expression on his face.

To be honest, Cheng Qiantai has already started to decide which of these two disciples will succeed him as the head.

He wasn't worried at all that the two disciples would fight for the position of master, what he was worried about was who could really carry forward the Beimin faction.

Ling Xiao's shortcoming is that his vision is too narrow, and he cannot start from the big picture. The past leaders of the Beimin faction have said that the overall situation must be the most important thing. The secrets held here are related to the lives and deaths of countless people, and too narrow a vision can easily lead to an irreversible situation.

And Ling Xiao's shortcomings are exactly his strengths. When the situation is unfavorable, Ling Xiao will first consider the sect's own interests, which is undoubtedly of great benefit to the sect.

And Li Yuanhuan's advantage is what the past leaders of the Beimin faction need, being able to proceed from the overall situation.

But this is also what Cheng Qiantai is worried about. If the situation is unfavorable, Li Yuanhuan may, like his predecessor, use extreme means in exchange for the overall situation.

Indistinctly, Cheng Qiantai still prefers Ling Xiao. After all, he only has such a daughter. No matter what the circumstances, Cheng Qiantai hopes that his daughter can live well.

"Leave it alone, let's talk about it later." It was really difficult to make a choice, and Cheng Qiantai also chose to "delay".

"Okay, let's stop talking about the past and think about how to deal with those who want to harm us." Cheng Qiantai's face was full of sadness.

Cheng Yu made a suggestion: "How about we send someone out to lure the enemy to take action?"

Li Yuanhuan and Ling Xiao rejected Cheng Yu's suggestion at the same time, Ling Xiao said: "No way. Firstly, it is dangerous. Secondly, since the enemy has chosen to destroy the corpses and traces, there may be big moves in the near future, and they will not do anything to make things worse." We're getting suspicious."

Cheng Yu snorted disdainfully: "Elder Ling, you are so capable, why don't you tell us what to do?"

Ling Xiao smiled: "The method is very simple, arrange everything and wait."

Cheng Yu was taken aback: "Wait? What's your method?"

Cheng Yu's face was flushed and her voice became louder. She always felt that Ling Xiao was making fun of her.

Unexpectedly, Li Yuanhuan agreed with Ling Xiao's statement: "Yes, junior sister, I also think that this is the only feasible method at present."

"Father, look at them..." Cheng Yu cast her eyes on Cheng Gantai, seeing Cheng Gantai's face of blaming her, she immediately knew what her father's attitude was.

"Okay, okay, if you all think it's feasible, then do it." Cheng Yu said angrily, turned around and left the meeting hall.

Cheng Qiantai sighed helplessly: "Oh, when will this girl be more sensible?"

Ling Xiao and Li Yuanhuan secretly exchanged glances, Ling Xiao stuck out her tongue, Li Yuanhuan smiled wryly, the two had their own thoughts in each other's hearts, but neither of them confessed.

Ling Xiao and Li Yuanhuan started to move. Li Yuanhuan was in charge of training those disciples how to deal with the enemy's attack, while Ling Xiao was in charge of teaching the new disciples how to escape.

Cheng Qiantai looked at these two disciples who had completely different reactions when facing the enemy, and could only smile wryly.

Cheng Yu was very dissatisfied with Ling Xiao's attitude, and expressed her dissatisfaction towards her father with her mouth pouted: "Father, look at that kid, it's too much! Just thinking about running away, if the real enemy came to the door, would you Can you count on him to succeed?"

Cheng Qiantai knows that sometimes Ling Xiao's actions seem absurd, but they actually have deep intentions. With his character, he will never do something useless.

But this time Cheng Qiantai also had to admit that he really couldn't understand what Ling Xiao meant by doing this.

If Ling Xiao taught these disciples, hey, you can't fight and escape, then Cheng Qiantai naturally has nothing to say.

But Ling Xiao really only taught to escape, not to fight against the enemy, which made Cheng Qiantai depressed to the point of death.

"Let him go. Brother Ling won't harm us anyway, as long as you understand this." Cheng Qiantai could only comfort his daughter and himself with these words.

Ling Xiao came to Zangfengya again, and found that besides many weapons, there was still a strange aura left here.

The reason why that aura is weird is that it can actually echo the power of the chaotic soul in his body!

There are five kinds of chaotic soul powers in Ling Xiao's body, which are Tian Chong, Ling Hui, Qi, Li, and the five central souls that are fused with the two souls of gods and demons. The power of these five souls does not exist in the soul chain, but is directly stored in Ling Xiao's sky wheel, eyebrows, throat, heart and dantian.

This strange breath caused the five souls in Ling Xiao's body to react at the same time, as if they wanted to separate the five souls from his body, so scared that Ling Xiao ran away as if he had seen a ghost.

"It's his grandma's weirdness. When I came here last time, I didn't seem to feel this way!" Ling Xiao said to herself.

Thinking of his purpose of coming here, Ling Xiao had no choice but to walk towards Zang Fengya again.

With mental preparation this time, Ling Xiao tried to fight against that wisp of aura, but who knew that this aura seemed to sense Ling Xiao's "heart", and even hid, so that he could no longer feel it.

"It's really strange, it seems like a living person." Ling Xiao hummed while tossing the topaz stone to the ground.

The last time I beat Zheng Hao's old man, Elder Zheng, Ling Xiao had plenty of crystals.

This time, Ling Xiao wanted to set up the most generous formation in his life on the Tibetan front cliff, betting all 10,000 topaz on it.

One of the most common formations used for hiding only needs eighty-eight topaz stones, which can defeat the mental search of a green-level chain soul master.

Eight hundred and eighty-eight topaz stones can make a green-level chain soul master unable to find the person he is looking for.

Usually Ling Xiao used up to 888 topaz, but this time he spent ten times as many crystals. It seems that he wanted this formation to hide the entire sect.

However, except for Ling Xiao himself, no one knew what he was doing.

Ling Xiao still only arranged this large formation on the Tibetan Peak Cliff.

Sweating profusely, Ling Xiao wiped the sweat off his forehead with his sleeve: "Okay, you're done! As long as they can escape here, I guarantee that no one can hurt them!"
