"Very good. The people of Yuanling are all heroes! However, I, Yuan Mo, will not let you die for my daughter.
The difference in strength is too great. There will only be one result if we fight head-on, and that is the destruction of Yuanling. "
Yuan Mo looked at Leah and asked, "Leah, are you willing to sacrifice yourself for the sake of Yuanling's future?"
Leah shuddered when she heard this. She suddenly let go of her father's arm and retreated toward Ling Xiao.
She was willing because her father was the person who loved her the most in the world. However, she had not expected her father to say such a thing.
How could she endure this?
"Father, I'm not that great. I don't want to!
Why should I sacrifice myself for the entire tribe?
As a father, you actually want to push your daughter into a pit of fire. What right do you have to make me die for you? "
Leah's long-held beliefs crumbled.
She had thought that her father was the greatest person in the world and that he was the only person she could rely on.
Ever since her mother had been killed by the Chen Kingdom's royal family, the only person she could rely on was her father.
However, now, her father actually wanted to push her into a pit of fire that she could never climb out of.
"Leah, you have to understand your father's painstaking efforts.
The Meta-Spirit Race is currently on the brink of destruction, yet you're sacrificing your own happiness in exchange for their survival. What a noble thing to do! You're my daughter, Yuan Mo.
As my daughter, you should do this. "
Yuan Mo looked at Leah and sighed.
"It's said that even a vicious tiger will not eat its cubs. As a father, you are simply too disappointing!"
The mouth under the silver mask said disdainfully.
Ling Xiao really could not stand it anymore.
Leah could choose to sacrifice herself, but as her father, Yuan Mo really had no reason to let her sacrifice herself.
Perhaps he was a great tribal leader, but he was definitely not a good father.
"Who are you? How dare you speak such nonsense in the Yuanling Tribe?"
Yuan Mo looked coldly at Ling Xiao and asked.
"Father, he's not a bad person. He's my friend. He just wants to do business with our tribe.
Oh, that's right. He also said that with him around, he would definitely be able to protect our tribe from the Chen Nation's royal family. "
Leah said hurriedly.
"Not a bad guy?"
Yuan Mo frowned. His daughter was really naive. Who in this world would write the word "bad person" on their face?
"Family Head, this fellow seems to be wanted by the Chen Country's royal family."
Wu Pa stood out and said.
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Yuan Mo revealed a smile.
"Hehe, brother, our tribe has been busy recently. If you want to do business with us, that's not a problem. But I'm afraid you'll have to stay in the tribe for a few days."
Speaking up to here, Yuan Mo said to Upa, "Upa, go arrange this mister's residence. You must treat him with utmost care. Don't let anyone disturb him! “
These words sounded nice, but in fact, those who were a little smarter would be able to understand.
This was not how a guest should be treated. This was clearly to put Ling Xiao under house arrest and then hand him over to the First Prince to deal with.
Ling Xiao could see the old man's intention at a glance, but he did not expose him.
Anyway, he had already promised to help Leah. If he had to stay, so be it.
"Mr. Ling Xiao, have a good rest first. I'll go see you later."
Leah was still naive. She did not understand the other meaning in her father's words.
"Ling Xiao, come with me!"
Wu Pa glanced at Ling Xiao with a hint of schadenfreude in his eyes.
Ling Xiao did not say anything. He followed Wu Pa to a very nice treehouse.
The treehouse was very spacious and comfortable, but the guards outside did not put him in a good mood.
"How laughable. You're actually monitoring me?
If I, Ling Xiao, want to leave, even if all of your Yuanling people come out, you won't be able to stop me! "
Ling Xiao sneered. He did not have a good impression of this Yuanling Family Head, Yuan Mo.
Originally, he did intend to protect Yuanling.
But now, he only intended to protect Leah.
Whether the others died or not had nothing to do with him.
This Yuan Mo actually thought that by handing him over to the First Prince, he could obtain the forgiveness of the First Prince and the Chen Kingdom's royal family.
How laughable!
It was simply stupid to not understand the situation.
Thinking of this, Ling Xiao stepped out of the room, wanting to directly take the Life Essence.
Since this old man was so heartless, he did not need to care about his previous promise.
"Stop!"
As soon as he stepped out of the room, he was stopped by four figures. These four people were clearly warriors carefully selected by the Yuanling. They were not weak.
They were probably warriors second only to Family Head Yuan Mo.
"What, is this how your tribe treats guests?"
Ling Xiao's eyes shot out a vicious look. If they thought he was easy to bully, then this group of people was really blind.
"Go back! The Family Head has ordered that you are not to leave this room until tomorrow! "
One of the people's voice was extremely cold and even had a commanding tone.
"I'm not your prisoner. I can leave whenever I want. Can you stop me?"
Ling Xiao said coldly.
"Guest, don't make things difficult for us. This will make you safer. If you insist on leaving this room and get hurt, don't blame us."
That person still said very rudely.
"What? Do you still want to make a move? "
Ling Xiao sneered.
"The Family Head has ordered that if the guest insists on leaving, we can do whatever we want, including using force to stop the guest."
That person's face revealed a murderous expression, and a cold aura exuded from his body.
"With just you?"
Ling Xiao suddenly opened his eyes, and a bone-chilling killing intent appeared in his eyes, instantly landing on the four people in front of him.
The four warriors felt as if their bodies had been pierced by sharp blades, and they actually felt substantial damage and pain.
They took a few steps back in fear, and cold sweat flowed down their foreheads.
"Get lost!"
Ling Xiao stepped forward.
When his right foot landed on the ground, a terrible force sprang up from the ground, and the four people were all sent flying, causing an explosion in the air.
"For Leah's sake, I won't kill you today, but trash like paramecia better not provoke me again!"
Ling Xiao said coldly, then turned and left.
The four people looked at Ling Xiao's back in horror, then struggled to get up from the ground and ran toward the Family Head's treehouse.
Not long after Ling Xiao left.
The Yuanling Family Head, Yuan Mo, brought people here. Seeing that the room was empty, Yuan Mo's face was very ugly.
"Bastard, you can't even keep an eye on a person. If this guy leaves, who will be responsible if the First Prince investigates tomorrow?"
Yuan Mo roared fiercely and slapped the warrior in charge of guarding the treehouse in the face.
"Father, why did you do this to him? Ling Xiao said that he will protect our Yuanling, but if you treat him like this, he will definitely be disappointed."
