"Forget it, forget it. Since I've already killed you, I'll just bury you."
Xiao Yang muttered to himself.
If he just left like this, he'd feel uneasy and wouldn't be able to live with his conscience. Otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered.
Sticking to the principle of choosing the nearest option, he glanced around and walked to Li Xinglong's side. Grabbing him with one hand, he walked over to a decent slope, circulated his cultivation base, and punched out, blasting a large hole in the slope. Then he tossed Li Xinglong inside. With a flip of his hand, a majestic cultivation base surged out, causing large swaths of soil to tremble and cover Li Xinglong.
Xiao Yang glanced at him and found him much more pleasing to the eye. Only then did he turn to leave.
Just as he was about to leave, he saw several Poison Sect disciples appear in front of him. They were dressed in the robes of the Law Enforcement Hall. Their job was to patrol and enforce the law. Now that they'd seen Xiao Yang kill people and destroy their corpses with their own eyes, how could they tolerate this?
Yes, Xiao Yang had buried Li Xinglong out of the kindness of his heart. He couldn't bear to leave his corpse in the wilderness. In the eyes of the Disciplinary Hall disciples, he was simply destroying the evidence.
Xiao Yang pursed his lips and shrugged. He didn't look like he wanted to hide or explain himself. To him, if he killed someone like Li Xinglong, then he killed him. What could they do about it? Hmph.
He put on an innocent and pure expression and looked at the three indifferent disciples of the Disciplinary Hall. Chuckling, he said, "Junior brothers, may I ask how to get to the Sect Head's Peak?"
This attitude made it seem like the murder just now had never happened. This infuriated the three Disciplinary Hall disciples even more. How could he be justified in killing someone? How could he act so matter-of-factly without the slightest bit of guilt or self-blame? This is too much. Does he even have any humanity left?
"Xiao Yang!"
"You killed Li Xinglong first, but now you don't have the slightest bit of remorse or guilt. Scum like you who kills fellow sect members should be hacked to pieces."
"Although we are unable to deal with you, we will definitely report this matter to the sect and request the sect leader to make a decision."
The three disciples of the Disciplinary Hall roared at Xiao Yang. They were witnesses and also spectators. They saw Xiao Yang kill people with their own eyes. Of course, they were only spectators and did not stop him from beginning to end. From this, one could see how cold their hearts were.
They kept talking about the righteousness of their fellow Sect members, but when they saw their fellow Sect members being killed, they simply stood there and did nothing to help. It could be seen just how shallow the righteousness they spoke of was.
At the very least, Xiao Yang had a reason for killing people. It was because they wanted to kill him.
However, these three disciples of the Punishment Hall were supposed to uphold fairness and justice and protect the sect's disciples. Yet, they watched as Li Xinglong was killed. Their cold-bloodedness and heartlessness were obvious.
"Xiao Yang, do you know what you did wrong? We are not people who are difficult to talk to. As long as you admit your mistakes and correct them, we may give you a chance to turn over a new leaf. "
"That's right, Xiao Yang. Only you and I know about this matter. No one else knows. If you admit your mistakes and have a good attitude, we may be able to let this matter go."
"Let's see if you know how to behave."
The three disciples of the Punishment Hall sternly spoke to Xiao Yang. Their words were very playful and their meaning was very derogatory.
They wanted nothing more than to get some benefits from Xiao Yang.
No wonder they did not stop him before. Instead, they just stood there and watched. They wanted to get hold of Xiao Yang's weakness. In the past, they had restrained and threatened Xiao Yang to get benefits.
As long as their first threat was successful, there would be a second, third, and fourth time.
The three disciples of the Punishment Hall were overjoyed. They had finally gotten hold of Xiao Yang's weakness. Let's see if Xiao Yang would submit or not. As disciples of the Punishment Hall, they were naturally very well-informed. They knew that Xiao Yang's identity was not ordinary. He was the only disciple the sect head had personally taken in, and was very likely to take charge of the Poison Sect in the future.
Facing Xiao Yang, who had great potential, as long as they made good use of this dirty point, they would definitely be able to obtain enough benefits.
Xiao Yang sneered. He didn't put them in his eyes either.
When he had killed Li Xinglong, he had sensed the existence of these three people, but he had ignored them.
To Xiao Yang, there weren't many people he cared about. In any case, these three disciples were not among them.
"You're disciples of the Punishment Hall, but your actions are so vile. Just say that you want benefits. What righteousness is there to speak of?"
Xiao Yang said coldly, directly exposing their hypocrisy.
The faces of the three disciples of the Punishment Hall instantly turned ugly. Their faces also darkened as they glared fiercely at Xiao Yang, their brows furrowed.
They thought that they could easily threaten and control Xiao Yang. Who would've thought that Xiao Yang wasn't afraid at all?
One of the disciples snorted and said icily, "Xiao Yang, you should think this through. As long as we report that you killed Li Xinglong, you'll lose everything you have right now. Your life might even be in danger. On the other hand, if you show some mercy, not only will the three of us keep your secret, we can even be friends."
"That's right. You should think this through. Don't make a mistake."
They looked like they had Xiao Yang in their grasp. Their hearts were filled with pride.
"Three scum."
Xiao Yang cursed coldly, not giving them any face. If they'd followed the rules, Xiao Yang wouldn't have said anything. He'd just follow the procedure. In any case, the Punishment Hall would only release him in the end. He had nothing to fear.
But these three scum wanted to use public resources for their own personal gain. They wanted to use their position to threaten Xiao Yang. That was enough to draw hatred.
They were law enforcers, but they didn't do anything fair. Keeping people like them in important positions would only harm more Poison Sect disciples. This trend couldn't be allowed to continue.
"Xiao Yang, bastard, what did you just say? Say it again if you have the guts. "
The disciples of the Punishment Hall immediately roared at Xiao Yang with ferocious expressions. Their hearts burned with uncontrollable rage.
God damn it, doesn't he know the current situation? How dare he be so arrogant? What a fool!
They thought they could do whatever they wanted with Xiao Yang's weakness. No matter what, they never expected Xiao Yang to be so unyielding.
"I said that you're three scum, the scum of scum."
Xiao Yang's face was cold as he repeated his words.
"Good, good, good. Very good. Xiao Yang, are you going to shed all pretenses of cordiality with us?"
"We'll go back to the Punishment Hall right now and report you for killing someone. Let's see how the sect will deal with you. Even the sect master won't be able to protect you."
