If, if everything continued to develop quietly, Ling Xiao would really stay in the Demon Dragon Sword Court for a long time.
Perhaps during this period, he would continue to make contributions to the Demon Dragon Sword Court.
However, there were some things that would never develop according to Ling Xiao's wishes.
After the Black Tortoise Seal battle ended, Empress Lan Meichen presided over the awards.
When only Ling Xiao was left, a terrifying aura appeared on the fifth floor of the nine-story demon tower.
Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at the owner of the terrifying aura.
"The Demon Lord has arrived!"
Empress Lan Meichen was the first to recognize the familiar aura, so she hurriedly bowed and said loudly.
"Welcome, Demon Lord!"
The others, except for Sword 18, all knelt down.
Ling Xiao also politely knelt on one knee.
No matter what, he was still a disciple of the Demon Dragon Sword Court. When he saw the Demon Lord, he naturally had to know etiquette.
"A woman?"
Seeing this Demon Lord, Ling Xiao was stunned.
The Demon Lord was actually a woman. He always thought it was a man. A woman was actually so domineering that she could become the Sect Master of one of the two major sects of the Sword Dynasty.
This was enough to show how terrifying her strength was.
"Get up."
The Demon Lord's face was calm. No one knew what she was thinking.
Ling Xiao and the others stood up together.
"You are Ling Xiao, right?"
The Demon Lord came in front of Ling Xiao and asked with a smile.
Others might not be able to judge the meaning of this smile.
But Ling Xiao understood at that moment.
This guy should be suspecting him.
But there was no conclusive evidence.
He smiled and cupped his hands. "Reporting to the Demon Lord, this disciple is Ling Xiao."
"Very good. Here are the rewards. Take them."
The Demon Lord waved her hand, and the rewards for the champion flew to Ling Xiao.
A Black Tortoise Seal!
30,000 upper grade spirit stones!
Ling Xiao didn't stand on ceremony and directly put it into the storage ring.
Then he looked at the Demon Lord and said, "Thank you for the reward, Demon Lord!"
"Aren't you going to tell me something?"
The Devil Lord looked at Ling Xiao indifferently, completely unable to guess what she was thinking at this moment.
"Disciple does not understand what Devil Lord means."
At this time, Ling Xiao naturally had to feign ignorance. If he could avoid confronting the Demon Lord head-on, that was naturally the best choice.
After all, with his current cultivation, there was no way he could fight against them.
He didn't want to cause trouble for the Eighteenth Sword.
Demon Master Lan Mei released a terrifying aura.
This aura made the surrounding martial artists all tremble with fear, kneeling down again one after another.
Even Empress Lan Meichen could not withstand her mother's authority.
But Ling Xiao stood there without moving.
Perhaps it was because he possessed the Tyrannical Martial Spirit.
Or perhaps it was because he had even killed the experts of the Eternal Palace.
This Demon Master Lan Meimei was no longer that scary in his eyes.
This was the same principle as how one would not be easily shocked by a beautiful woman after seeing so many beautiful women.
"You still dare to feign ignorance in front of me. Do you really think I don't know what you've done?"
Lan Mei said coldly, "The Ling Xiao on the bounty list is actually you, right? Do you think that others won't be able to find traces of you just because you've changed your appearance?
You're too ostentatious. You killed the City Lord of Ming City in Ming City and even fought with Wu Qing and defeated him.
You can hide other things, but that frivolous and arrogant aura, you can't hide it no matter what!
My daughter Lan Ruo was also harmed by you, right? "
Hearing the Devil Lord's words, everyone present was stunned.
Especially those who had experienced the Great Battle of Ming City, only now did they realize.
It turned out that the Ling Xiao with a bounty of two million mid-grade spirit stones on the bounty list was the Ling Xiao in front of them.
This guy was too bold. He clearly had a bounty on him, but he still dared to come to the Demon Dragon Sword Court.
Didn't he know that the Demon Dragon Sword Court had also joined the Heavenly Sword Hall?
"Hehe, so just because you're frivolous, domineering, arrogant, and have the same name, you're the same person?
If you want to condemn someone, you can always find a pretext! "
Ling Xiao sneered and refused to admit it.
This kind of thing couldn't be admitted.
Devil Lord Lan Mei only suspected that if he admitted it, it wouldn't just be admitting that he had dealt with Lan Ruo.
It would be very troublesome if he admitted that he was Ling Xiao on the bounty list.
So he wouldn't admit it even if he was beaten to death.
"What a Ling Xiao! You're really bold. In front of me, you can still be so calm. Do you really think that the Eighteenth Sword can save you?
A hundred years ago, he might have been stronger than me.
But a hundred years have passed, and he's already very far from me. "
Devil Lord Lan Mei looked at Ling Xiao and didn't rush to make a move.
Although her daughter Lan Ruo didn't die, she could only live in a nutrient solution because she had lost her physical body.
She also wanted to let Ling Xiao have a taste of the pain of losing his physical body.
However, she was the Devil Lord of the Devil Dragon Sword Court after all. She still had to maintain her dignity. Even if it was just for show, she had to show that she was fair and just.
She wanted Ling Xiao to admit his crime personally.
Jian Luoying and the people of the Wine Demon Residence were the most nervous at this time.
If Ling Xiao was really the one who had seriously injured Lan Ruo, and if he was really that Ling Xiao on the bounty list, then it would really be difficult to escape today.
"Father!"
Jian Luoying looked at the Eighteenth Sword and shouted nervously.
"Don't worry, my good daughter. When it's time to make a move, father will naturally make a move."
The Eighteenth Sword's expression was still calm.
Because he already knew about this.
He knew that he still dared to leave Ling Xiao in the Wine Demon Residence because he had enough confidence to protect Ling Xiao.
Compared to the people of the Wine Demon Residence who were worried, the people of the Sky Demon Residence, Earth Demon Residence, and the 13 Demon Generals' Residence who hated Ling Xiao were all cheering in their hearts at this time.
To them, this was great news.
Ling Xiao had killed Lin Chuang, Xue Yi, Fang Feiyun, Lin Feiyang, and Lin Xuan.
He had also indirectly caused the death of Fengjian Mountain.
As for Ling Xiao, the Sky Demon General, the Earth Demon General, and Chen Luo couldn't wait to tear him into pieces.
Lan Ruo was the Demon Lord's most beloved daughter.
Although her strength wasn't that great, for the Demon Lord who was protective of his children, just this point alone was enough to take Ling Xiao's life.
Not to mention that Ling Xiao was a wanted criminal on the bounty list. The Devil Dragon Sword Court couldn't let him go.
"Please forgive this disciple, but I really don't understand what the Demon Lord means. Could it be that the Demon Lord of the Devil Dragon Sword Court wants to frame a disciple who just won the Black Tortoise Seal Contest?
I admit that I have offended many people, and they all want me dead.
If the Demon Lord wants to kill me because of them, I have nothing to say. However, you can't just randomly accuse me of a crime. Otherwise, if word gets out, I will become the laughing stock of the world. "
"You have a glib tongue!"
Lan Meimo said coldly as she looked at Ling Xiao.
"Demon Lord, you flatter me. This disciple is just speaking the truth. Could it be that you hate me so much because I chose the Wine Demon Residence and not the Demon Lord Residence? "
Ling Xiao asked with a smile.
His words had hit the nail on the head.
Lan Ruo wasn't dead, and Lan Meimo wasn't obsessed with revenge.
