Although Li Xiao had used everything he had and fought with all his strength, he had still died at Xie Tian's hands in the end. There was indeed a gap between the Emperor Realm and the Ancestor Realm that was difficult to cross.
This kind of gap was not something that could be made up for by going all out. After killing Li Xiao, the smile on Xie Tian's face became even brighter. Next to Li Xiao's corpse, Xie Tian left a line of words.
Those who obey will live, those who defy will die. It was just a few simple words, but if anyone saw these words, they would immediately think of the Sword Sect.
After all, the actions of the Sword Sect during this time had been seen by everyone. It was clear that the Sword Sect wanted to cleanse the entire Boundless World and eliminate all those who posed a threat to them.
Li Xiao was killed in such a sensitive period of time. Furthermore, there were six threatening words beside his corpse. Anyone would suspect Swords Gate of being the culprit behind this.
This was also Xie Tian's goal this time. He had been forced to become a blade in the hands of the Sword Sect, but Xie Tian was not willing to become a blade in the hands of others, so he had framed the Sword Sect.
Moreover, Xie Tian had chosen Li Xiao as his target. It could be said that Li Xiao was the one who was most unwilling to join the Sword Sect because of his relationship with Jun Wuya and Luo Xing, Li Xiao could not be as calm as the others.
Because of this, the world would believe that this was the doing of the Sword Sect. Because Li Xiao did not agree to joining the Sword Sect, the Sword Sect had made a move to kill him. First, it was to get rid of this hidden danger and second, it was to warn others and let them make a choice.
Xie Tian's idea was not bad. Once he thought of Li Xiao's corpse being found, the Sword Sect's reputation would suffer a large blow. Xie Tian couldn't help secretly feeling excited.
He knew that just this matter alone was not enough to hurt the Sword Sect, but as long as it gave the Sword Sect a headache, Xie Tian was already very satisfied.
Moreover, in the face of danger, the other factions' attitudes towards the Sword Sect would probably change slightly.
Don't forget, even a rabbit would bite when cornered, and a cornered dog would jump over a wall. In a situation where there was no way to retreat, in order to protect themselves, the major forces would probably really take the risk.
Adding in the fact that Xie Tian was adding fuel to the fire from behind, Xie Tian would definitely make a move after this, making the situation even harder to control. At that time, he would be able to stir up the large world and he, Xie Tian, would be able to fish in troubled waters.
His mood was very good. Looking at Li Xiao's corpse, Xie Tian said with a faint smile, "Li Xiao, being able to do something for this one before dying is your blessing. You can go in peace."
As for killing Li Xiao, Xie Tian didn't feel anything at all, it was as simple as squashing an ant. As soon as his voice fell, Xie Tian disappeared on the spot and the restrictions around him quickly disappeared. It was like he had never been here, other than Li Xiao's corpse lying on the ground.
The surroundings fell into a deathly silence as darkness covered everything. As for Li Xiao's corpse, it was silently lying on the ground without a trace of life.
A silent night. That night, no one noticed anything strange with Li Xiao. Until noon of the next day, Li Chun hadn't seen Li Xiao for a long time. Feeling strange, he finally came to Li Xiao's residence.
But once he came in, Li Chun saw Li Xiao's corpse and he was stunned on the spot. When he came back to his senses, Li Chun quickly ran over to Li Xiao's side, but it was a pity that Li Xiao was already cold.
His eyes were red as he picked up Li Xiao's corpse. Li Chun couldn't help crying out in pain. After that, Li Chun also saw the six words beside Li Xiao's corpse.
Those who obey will live, those who defy will die. Seeing these six large words, Li Chun's eyes were filled with a strong hatred.
It was like Xie Tian had thought. Faced with these six words, Li Chun's first suspicion was the Sword Sect. Moreover, being able to silently kill Li Xiao, perhaps only the Sword Sect could do this.
Not long after, the high level members of the Heavenly Plan Palace heard the news and came to Li Xiao's cave. Seeing Li Xiao's corpse, the high level members of the Heavenly Plan Palace were filled with pain and there were even some who were angrily cursing.
"Going too far, the Sword Sect is going too far. Could it be that they really think they can cover the sky with one hand?"
"The palace master only hesitated for a bit and the Sword Sect actually made such a vicious move. What is the meaning of this? Killing a chicken to warn the monkeys? Using our Heavenly Plan Palace to warn the other powers? "
"We must get an explanation from the Sword Sect."
"That's right, we must get an explanation for the palace master. No matter how strong the Sword Sect is, they can't act so overbearingly."
The high level members of the Heavenly Plan Palace were filled with rage over Li Xiao's death. Although the Heavenly Plan Palace wasn't as strong as the Sword Sect, if they didn't even dare to fart when their own ancestor was killed, how could the Heavenly Plan Palace face themselves in the future?
Moreover, in everyone's eyes, the Sword Sect's actions this time were indeed going too far. Those who obey will live, those who defy will die. What did this mean? Could it be that as long as someone dared to go against the wishes of the Sword Sect, they would be killed?
The high level members were filled with righteous indignation and Li Chun didn't say a word from beginning to end. However, the hatred in his eyes conveyed his current feelings.
The Heavenly Plan Palace was furious that Li Xiao was killed. Such a big matter naturally couldn't be hidden and the Heavenly Plan Palace clearly didn't have any intention of hiding it.
If they wanted to get justice, it was impossible for them to do it alone. Therefore, many of the high level members of the Heavenly Plan Palace began to secretly contact the Moon Palace, Dan Valley and other forces. They wanted to get an explanation from the Sword Sect together.
Li Xiao's death was suspected to be caused by the Sword Sect. When the news spread, it naturally shocked everyone. All the major forces fell into a state of shock. Among them, there were some who were doubtful, some who were suspicious and some who felt that the Sword Sect had gone too far.
Many forces received the news and the Sword Sect naturally received the news as well. Within the Sword Sect, Xuanyuan Ling was the first person to receive the news from his residence.
Looking at the elder in front of him, Xuanyuan Ling's expression was calm and he didn't seem surprised at all. It was as if he already knew this would happen.
After the elder finished speaking, Xuanyuan Ling waved his hand and said, "I understand. You may leave."
Hearing this, although the elder found it strange that Xuanyuan Ling didn't have any reaction after hearing this, he still respectfully bowed and left the room.
When the elder left and only Xuanyuan Ling was left in the room, Xuanyuan Ling softly muttered.
"As expected, they still used Li Xiao as an example? Xie Tian, you're not willing to be a knife in my hand, but you've solved a large problem for me. "
