We have no malice?
Yes, nowadays, the theme of the Immortal Cultivation World in Nine Regions is peace and development. The number of barbarians who would blatantly shout that they are here to destroy and conquer is getting fewer and fewer.
Even if it was clear that the iron hooves of the army trampled on the people, causing them to be in a terrible situation, the general holding the flag would hold up his bloody hands and shout, "We bring you democracy and freedom!"
Yes, the left hand is democracy, the right hand is freedom. Left hand and right hand, break your tendons and bones!
Therefore, when he heard that dark-brown cultivator said that he had no malice, Wang Lu smiled.
"Only dead people have no malice. If you cut your own throat with your sword, I will believe you."
That dark-brown cultivator ignored this ridicule. His smile didn't change as he continued, "I am A Xia. You've seen the one beside me, cat girl Ling Yan."
As A Xia said that, his smile gradually faded, and he assumed a serious posture. However, his pair of dark eyes were still unfathomable.
"A week ago, we received the instruction of the Great Elder of the Grand Cloud Mountain to solve the trouble brought by the three of you."
Wang Lu asked, "And then you came without malice?"
A Xia said, "Exactly. Because I always feel that, compared to extermination, many things can be resolved peacefully."
"Resolved peacefully?"
"Yes. For example, here, on behalf of the Beast Master School's Grand Cloud Mountain Division, I implore the three of you to let bygones be bygones and bury the hatchet."
Upon hearing this, Wang Lu nodded again and again. "Mm, since rape doesn't work, you come to seduce them. Your calculation is really good."
A Xia smiled again. "Yes, I have carefully calculated it. If I have to fight with the three of you, I don't know how much trouble it would be. A middle-rank King Pill with a spiritual treasure can freely enter and exit my Beast Master School's inescapable net. Such an opponent may be defeated or repelled, but if we want to completely solve it, I'm afraid even our Great Elder may not be able to do it. What's more, we are still short of manpower in our plan. If we split our manpower to deal with the three of you, I'm afraid we would end up in a dilemma. So, why bother? "
Hearing this, Xiao Qi was stunned for a moment and said, "You're quite an interesting person. You're different from those beastly fellows."
A Xia slightly cupped his hands in obeisance. "To be honest, my cultivation base is shallow, and my aptitude is dull. In this life, I have no hope to go further, so naturally, I'm not as sharp as the other disciples. But because of this, there are some problems that they can't solve, but I can. Actually, in my opinion, there isn't any deep hatred between the two sides. There's no need to make things so tense. "
Xiao Qi asked, "No deep hatred?"
A Xia said, "It's just a few thousand dogs, is it worth it to have such a deep hatred? It was the elders who dealt with this matter that overreacted. If you are willing to let bygones be bygones, we will sincerely apologize for our previous rudeness. "
Saying that, he turned his gaze towards Wang Lu, "Similarly, I also want to apologize to you for Elder Chi Hou's rude behavior."
Wang Lu sneered, "If apologies are useful, then what's the point of using hell money?"
A Xia nodded again and again. "Exactly, exactly. How can empty words win people's trust? Therefore, in order to show sincerity … look."
With that, A Xia took out something from his loose robe. Upon seeing it, Wang Lu couldn't help but look sluggish. It was an arm! The muscles were plump and the bones were coarse. His memory was very good; he remembered it was Chi Hou's right hand!
"As a Beast Master School Elder, he was not strict enough. Two of his disciples conspired against your excellency's spirit beast. Later, he was bewitched and actually wanted his spirit beast to snatch it away. Finally, he even personally intervened … In accordance with Beast Master School's rules, he should be severely punished. Now, I take an arm as an apology, I don't know if I can get your excellency's forgiveness?"
Not to mention the weight of this arm, it was rare for a Daoist Master King Pill to speak so lowly to Wang Lu, a middle-level Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator. Although A Xia's pair of strange eyes hid an unfathomable expression, his attitude was really impeccable.
In response to this, Wang Lu laughed. "You guys actually know how to make use of waste."
That day, he, Liu Li, and Quan Zouhua joined hands to repel Chi Hou, killed his two spirit beasts, and broke his magical treasure. Thus, at least sixty percent of Chi Hou's ability was wasted. Although the King Pill Stage was still there, according to Wang Lu's ranking system, it was the Nine Levels N of King Pill. Thus, his real strength had long fallen to an unknown degree. And after suffering such a heavy blow, with Chi Hou's aptitude and temperament, how could it be easy for him to make a comeback? He was indeed a waste.
And what was the value of a waste's arm?
However, Wang Lu unscrupulously pointed out this issue, which was somewhat like a slap in the face.
However, A Xia was still not angry and continued to nod. "Indeed, this alone is not enough to prove our sincerity. Therefore … Ling Yan, come here."
Behind him, the cat-eared girl in the cloak trembled, slowly walked over, and then took off her hood.
She was still that young girl who had transformed from a spirit beast, but there was no lack of heroic spirit. However, compared to a few days ago, her complexion was deathly pale, and her spiritual aura had completely disappeared. Furthermore … she wore a black eyepatch on her face, covering her right eye.
Then, the girl stretched out her right hand. In her palm, there was a cat's eye stone that shone brightly.
"You!?"
Xiao Qi was surprised, and even vaguely angry. The nearby Wang Lu also slightly widened his eyes. Obviously, this scene was not within his expectation.
A Xia was still smiling. "Using this high-rank spiritual object as compensation should be able to prove our sincerity."
Wang Lu was silent. Xiao Qi was silent. Liu Li incredulously looked at the girl and the cat's eye stone in her hand. She wanted to open her mouth, but she didn't know what to say.
Regarding this, even a harsh person would have nothing to say.
If Chi Hou's right hand was just a waste, then this cat's eye stone was a spiritual object created by a peak Daoist Master of King Pill!
Moreover, by using a secret method to remove the eyeball and turn it into a gem, the lost right eye was almost impossible to regenerate, unless one advanced to Yuanying and got a chance to reshape the body. However, from peak King Pill to Yuanying, it was not easy to cross the hurdle. Ling Yan was a spirit beast in human form, so her advancement was several times more difficult than a human cultivator. Now that her body was damaged, the difficulty increased again, and it could be said that her advancement was hopeless.
Such a loss, even in a first rate sect, could not be ignored. The number of Daoist Master of King Pill in Beast Master School was not small, but each of them had their own value. To just casually cripple one of them, it was really...
Wang Lu was silent for a moment. His eyes were firmly locked on A Xia.
The other party's posture was impeccable, but because of this, it made people feel uncomfortable, because such conditions simply had irresistible power. A Xia's posture was very low, but behind him, there was a mountain-like weight.
Why? It was very simple. If at this time, A Xia took out gold and silver, or even high-rank spiritual treasure, Wang Lu could say: I, your father, am of noble character and unquestionable integrity, so I don't care. However, the other party's eyeballs were already dug out, and you still don't care? Then what else do you want? Will you only be satisfied when the entire Beast Master School is dead?
At that time, the unreasonable one would no longer be the Beast Master School who was in the wrong, but the unforgiving Wang Lu.
He had to admit that although this method was vicious and by no means righteous, it did put people in a dilemma. Wang Lu was silent. Looking at the increasingly meaningful smile on A Xia's face, his heart gradually became angry.
Wang Lu was a person who, most of the time, was amenable to coaxing but not coercion. If he treated him with sincerity, unless there was a contradiction that couldn't be reconciled, otherwise, Wang Lu would always leave some leeway. However, right now, A Xia's seemingly soft but actually hard attitude provoked Wang Lu.
Interesting, you want to play tricks with me? Are you sure?
However, before Wang Lu could take action, he heard Xiao Qi's compassionate sigh from behind him. "If you really have sincerity, why be generous at other people's expense? You also have eyes, why don't you dig out your own eyes!"
While speaking, Xiao Qi, holding the Buddhist staff, stepped forward a few steps. That thick Buddhist staff emitted a soft golden light. Under the light, Wang Lu only felt a burst of warmth from the bottom of his heart. He could not help but be surprised. "Seventh Madame, you …"
The next moment, he couldn't speak. Just as Xiao Qi took a few steps forward, the woman's figure became infinitely tall. Her purple robe, along with the Buddhist staff, emitted a soft zen light. She raised her hands and feet, petals fluttered, and the zen sound lingered in the air. Around the woman, it was as if there were hundreds of arhats chanting sutras in unison. The momentum was vast, and the faint power was irresistible.
"What a poor child."
Xiao Qi looked at the cat-eared girl with infinite compassion. Then, he stretched out his Buddhist staff. His speed seemed slow, but it was actually fast, and it could not be resisted at all.
The crystallized cat's eye stone suddenly rotated. From its angular appearance, it gradually swelled up, and a moment later, it turned into a watery mass.
At this point, even the mysterious A Xia's face showed great surprise. Ling Yan's right eye was removed by a secret technique, crystallized, and turned from a living thing to a dead thing. But Xiao Qi's zen light could bring a dead person back to life, turning a dead thing back to life. It could be said to be a magical skill!
"Go."
Xiao Qi sighed. His Buddhist staff slightly trembled, and the eyeball in Ling Yan's palm turned into a swift light and flew into the eye patch. The girl cried out in surprise and then took off the eye patch. A quick-witted eye rolled, clear as ever.
"... Really a good trick." Wang Lu was simply amazed. How could he not see the difficulty of petrifying a cat's eye into a cat's eye? Moreover, Xiao Qi was just a doppelganger. Her magical power realm was only the middle level of King Pill. Although the Buddhist staff in her hand was a spiritual treasure, it was far from enough to create such a miracle.
What was magical was not the Buddhist staff, but Xiao Qi. Using the King Pill realm to turn the dead into life meant that she had comprehended the way of reincarnation, which was the Great Dao that many great cultivators of Zen sect failed to comprehend.
Sure enough, the person who could be friends with his Master was by no means an ordinary person. And Xiao Qi's move, in addition to showing her amazing strength, also resolved A Xia's trick.
Your eyeball, I will return it to you. If you want to reconcile, please give me a new price tag. And Xiao Qi had just said that if she was sincere, she should dig out her own eye.
Xiao Qi was still holding the Buddhist staff. The zen light around her was still there, and the zen sound did not stop. However, the benevolence of all living beings had disappeared without a trace. The woman coldly stared at A Xia, seemingly waiting for him to dig out his own eye.
Zen Master Gourou had the means of a Zen Master, but she didn't have the compassion of a Zen Master. When she was in a bad mood, she could eat thousands of spirit dogs on the Grand Cloud Mountain. Similarly, she didn't mind digging out the eyeball of a sinister person.
A Xia sighed. "This is really embarrassing. It seems that today's visit is not the right time. Let's meet again next time."
"Want to leave?"
Wang Lu raised his eyebrows. Holding the Sword of Mount Kun, he took a step forward. Completely disregarding the insurmountable gap between the middle level of Foundation Establishment and the middle level of King Pill, he made the first move!
A Xia's complexion was dignified. Of course, he didn't care about Wang Lu's plain sword thrust. Even without the constraint of the Big Heart Demon Oath, Wang Lu's attack power was still appalling. However, at this time, Wang Lu was not alone. When he thrust his sword forward, the naive girl behind him, though she didn't know the reason, moved one step faster than Wang Lu.
The same sword thrust, but Liu Li's attack could not be ignored. Even though the distance between high-level Foundation Establishment and middle-level Jindan was like the distance between heaven and earth, Brilliant Sword Heart was like the bridge between heaven and earth. With this sword thrust, A Xia felt that his whole body's magical power was faintly shaken. If he wanted to take it head-on, although it was not that he couldn't take it, but considering that the opposite party still had the unfathomable zen method of Zen Master Dog Meat, A Xia decided to escape.
A Xia and Ling Yan came together, so naturally, they wouldn't leave alone. A Xia stepped back. His body had already lit up with the floating light of the escape technique. He reached out to grab Ling Yan, but Ling Yan was a bit slow and didn't immediately follow him.
However, at this time, Liu Li's sword suddenly changed its momentum and slashed in front of Ling Yan. A Xia's eyebrows twitched, and the connection between him and Ling Yan was cut off. The next moment, the floating light on his body flashed. Although his body was teleported away by a spell, in a twinkling of an eye, he was already dozens of miles away.
A certain cat-eared girl was left behind.
It was almost the same tactic as the one used to deal with Chi Hou. The only difference was that at that time, she left behind a skull that only had a commemorative value. This time, she left behind a peak level of King Pill … pet?
Looking at the cowering Ling Yan, no matter who it was, it was difficult to associate her with the overbearing Elder from a few days ago.
