But this Xiao Yang not only didn't listen to him, he even questioned him. Where was he supposed to put his face?
"Hmph."
He harrumphed fiercely, his breath brimming with killing intent.
The Poison Sect Master immediately sensed his killing intent, as did the other two elders and many other pavilion heads. Their hearts skipped a beat as they frowned inwardly.
The sect master had no choice but to intervene. He first comforted the first elder, "First Elder, don't get angry. Stay calm."
Then his gaze landed on Xiao Yang. "Xiao Yang, what did Li Xingzong do wrong for you to kill him?"
Xiao Yang cupped his fists. "As the host, Li Xingzong should've kept his hands clean and stayed neutral. But in the end, that bastard colluded with the Wang Clan and even convinced the judges to accept the Wang Clan's bribes. He colluded with the Wang Clan to kill me during the competition. Leaving aside the fact that they should've maintained fairness, just the fact that he personally attacked me is enough to make me unable to tolerate him. If it were any of you, would you have tolerated it?"
Lan Jiaoye couldn't take it anymore when she saw the Poison Sect's upper echelons targeting Xiao Yang. She stepped forward as well, standing side by side with Xiao Yang. She pouted and said, "That's right, my cousin is right. The Wang Clan used Li Xingzong and the judges. They even used some of the top ranked disciples. The Wang Clan planned to use Li Xingzong and the others to delay Xiao Yang, then use the clan's power to massacre the Lan Clan. But they never expected their plan to fail. I can testify to that."
One after another, Chen Zhifu and Li Qinghe stood out and spoke up for Xiao Yang.
They were all from Martial Yang City, and there were so many people watching the Hegemony Tournament back then. The news had spread like wildfire, so it wasn't surprising that they knew about it.
The Poison Sect's upper echelons immediately understood. So that's how it was. Even Gu Qianqian, Gu Shanhe, and the others were relieved. They had been wondering how Xiao Yang had offended the three great clans.
The first elder thought, If this matter is really as Xiao Yang said, then we really can't blame Xiao Yang. On the contrary, they went overboard. After all, they weren't strict with their disciples and wanted to harm others. They had to discipline their disciples. Since they were in the wrong, not only did they not admit it, they even blamed Xiao Yang...
. "The first elder almost couldn't find a way out of this embarrassing.
He really didn't expect Li Xingzong to be such a bastard. If he'd known this before, he would've killed that bastard...
"Good, good job killing him. Scum like Li Xingzong deserved to die. Leaving him alive would only harm others." The first elder immediately changed his stance and attitude to support Xiao Yang.
Xiao Yang probably wouldn't lie. Many people had seen the Hegemony Tournament with their own eyes. It couldn't be easier to verify the truth. All they had to do was randomly pick a few people and ask them.
The Poison Sect Master muttered to himself for a moment, then nodded.
This matter really couldn't be blamed on Xiao Yang. He said, "Xiao Yang, we misunderstood you before. It's fine as long as we talk things out. Don't take it to heart. As for you killing a member of the Hegemony Tournament, don't worry, we'll give you an explanation. You don't need to worry about them causing trouble for you."
He made this promise.
From this, it was clear why Changsun Shan, Zhou Shancai, and the others had caused trouble for Xiao Yang. It was because Xiao Yang had killed their clansmen.
"Many thanks, Sect Master."
Xiao Yang cupped his fists to express his gratitude.
The three great clans were the three great clans, and the Poison Sect was the Poison Sect. There was a difference between them.
"Alright, this matter is over. No one is to bring it up again."
The Poison Sect Master waved his hand, indicating for everyone to listen carefully.
The ten pavilion lords, three elders, and many other pavilion elders laughed and looked at Xiao Yang with joy. They didn't mention anything about what had happened before, but were now thinking of ways to lure Xiao Yang over.
"Xiao Yang, my Pill Pavilion is in need of talents like you. Why don't you consider coming to my Pill Pavilion? We have many pills for you to choose from. What do you think?"
The Pill Pavilion Master immediately extended an invitation to Xiao Yang. He was all smiles and looked very amiable.
"Pill Pavilion Lord, you're shameless." The Beast Pavilion Lord cursed and hurriedly turned to Xiao Yang. "Xiao Yang, don't listen to that old bastard. Come to my Beast Pavilion. You can choose any of the demonic beasts here. You can easily form an army of beasts."
The Cultivation Method Pavilion, Thunder Pavilion, Buddha Pavilion, Sword Pavilion, Poison Medicine Pavilion, and other pavilion lords all stepped forward and extended an invitation to Xiao Yang. They all said that they would give Xiao Yang the best delicacies they had collected. Xiao Yang didn't know what to do in the face of their enthusiasm. He could only smile awkwardly.
The Third Elder was also moved by this talent. Hatred was hatred, and matters were matters. He smiled at Xiao Yang and said, "Xiao Yang, how about you be this old man's personal disciple?"
Hiss, hiss, hiss.
Many gasps could be heard. It was the gasps of many Pavilion Masters.
Immediately, one of the pavilion lords said in dissatisfaction, "Third Elder, you already have more than ten personal disciples. Why don't you give this one to us? You're even fighting with us. You're not being nice."
In the previous few batches, those who had good aptitude were all taken away by them. Now that they finally met Xiao Yang, they naturally didn't want to give up.
The Third Elder was a little anxious when he saw that the ten pavilion lords wanted to fight with him. He hurriedly said, "This old man was able to recruit so many personal disciples because I'm a person of virtue and prestige. It's also because those personal disciples have sharp eyes. Xiao Yang, think carefully. If you miss this opportunity, there won't be another one."
Xiao Yang could only smile bitterly.
Lan Jiaoye, Gu Qianqian, Gu Shanhe, and the others were full of envy. If only they were as outstanding as Xiao Yang. Looking at these people fighting over him, they were simply treating Xiao Yang as a treasure.
The Second Elder smiled and said slowly, "I think you guys have had enough. Since you're not willing to accept anyone, how about this, Xiao Yang, you come with me. I haven't accepted a disciple for many years, and I only accepted you. I don't plan to accept any more disciples in the future. What do you think?"
"Damn, despicable. Taking advantage of this time to recruit him." The Third Elder glared at him, and was immediately unhappy.
The Second Elder didn't care, and looked at Xiao Yang with anticipation.
"Cousin, just agree. The Second Elder still doesn't have a disciple. After accepting you, you'll be his only disciple." Lan Jiaoye said with envy.
Gu Qianqian also said, "Big Brother Xiao Yang, after you become the Second Elder's disciple, you have to take care of us."
Hearing their words, the Second Elder's smile became wider and happier. His eyes revealed an expression that said 'you guys are very sensible.'
Looking at this situation, the First Elder immediately became anxious.
