"How … how should I calculate it?"
Li Jiangang, the head of the Kunlun Sword Sect, had yet to recover from the huge shock and horror. He looked at Ling Yun in front of him and asked blankly.
"You can calculate it however you like, as long as you think it's appropriate."
Ling Yun smiled and put his hand on Li Jiangang's shoulder. "But before I settle the score, you have to tell me clearly. What's the matter with the two idiots who escaped just now? Their names are Zhang Kunlun and Li Kunlun?"
Li Jiangang's face stiffened and turned pale. He shook his head violently and said, "I can't say that."
"Can't say?!"
Ling Yun glared at him. "Then what's the use of you?"
Li Jiangang smiled bitterly, but his eyes were firm. "Even if you kill me, I can't say it."
Ling Yun was stunned. He didn't expect Li Jiangang to be so firm. That couldn't be faked. Li Jiangang was obviously afraid of him, but he didn't mention anything related to Kunlun. This could only mean one thing. Kunlun was far more important than his life.
This scene was exactly the same as Li Kunwu's behavior when Ling Yun crippled the four people of the Kunlun Sword Sect at Dragon Gate Mountain.
"Ling Yun, you don't have to make things difficult for him. Even if you cut him into eight pieces, he won't tell you. He won't say a word about Kunlun."
Ye Qingxin floated over and landed beside Lingyun. She transmitted her voice to him.
"Auntie, if I ask you, will you tell me?"
Ling Yun immediately turned his head and asked Ye Qingxin with a smile.
Ye Qingxin had a complicated look in her eyes. She pondered for a while and said slowly, "That, it depends on the situation in the future."
Ling Yun was immediately discouraged. He knew that it was impossible to find out Kunlun's secrets through Li Jiangang.
"Alright, pretend that I didn't ask anything. Let's settle the score between us."
Ling Yun immediately put on a cheeky expression and returned to the main topic, settling the score with Li Jiangang.
Frankly speaking, before the Devil Subduing Meet, Ling Yun only had two grudges with the Kunlun Sword Sect. The first was during the battle at Dragon Gate Mountain. Out of the four people from the Kunlun Sword Sect, he killed two of them and crippled the other two. He didn't suffer any losses. The second time was in the capital city. Back then, when the Kunlun Sword Sect's Reverend Zi Yu helped Sun Chen to form an alliance, it was also Ling Yun who killed Zi Yu and used it to condense the Yin Yang Aura Sword.
Even though the two confrontations with the Kunlun Sword Sect were dangerous, Ling Yun was always victorious and gained a huge advantage.
Therefore, between Ling Yun and the Kunlun Sword Sect, there was no need to calculate the new grudge. What he needed to calculate was the incident eighteen years ago when two people from the Kunlun Sword Sect attacked the Ling Family.
Now that the two of them were in the Kunlun Sword Sect's camp, Ling Yun would definitely not let them off.
Li Jiangang already knew that he couldn't escape. He sighed deeply and said, "Tell me, I'm listening."
He was very clear that once the two Immortal Masters of Kunlun left, the Kunlun Sword Sect was already a piece of meat on Ling Yun's chopping board. They could only wait to be slaughtered without any resistance.
Killing intent flashed in Ling Yun's eyes. He raised his hand and pointed to the two people behind Li Jiangang. "Eighteen years ago, in the case of my Ling Family, these two people from the Kunlun Sword Sect attacked my Ling Family and forced my parents. Therefore, these two people must die!"
Hearing Ling Yun's request, Li Jiangang's face turned solemn. He pondered for a moment and suddenly said, "Back then, the two of them did attack your Ling Family together with many people from the martial arts world. However, this wasn't their original intention. They were sent by the previous sect leader of the Kunlun Sword Sect. Now that the previous sect leader of the Kunlun Sword Sect has passed away, if you want to take revenge, I, Li Jiangang, am willing to bear the responsibility!"
Ling Yun observed Li Jiangang's expression and realized that he was very decisive. He couldn't help but praise him in his heart, thinking that a sect leader who dared to take responsibility was a good sect leader.
However, he resolutely rejected, "No! Every debt has its debtor. Back then, it was the two of them who attacked my Ling Family and forced my parents. Naturally, I have to take revenge on them! "
Just as Li Jiangang was about to explain, the two people behind him separated the crowd and walked slowly to Ling Yun.
One of them said to Ling Yun, "Ling Yun, the two of us don't wish to give any explanation for what happened back then. Since you want to take revenge now, we will accept it. You can take revenge however you want!"
The other person spoke to Li Jiangang, his eyes filled with gratitude, "Zi Qiu, Zi Chen thanks the Sect Master for protecting us. Since the old Sect Master sent the two of us down the mountain that year, it naturally means that he has full trust in us. The things that the two of us have done should naturally be borne by the two of us, how could we ask you to bear the responsibility for us?"
After saying that, he immediately sent a telepathic message to Li Jiangang. "Sect Leader, even though this Ling Yun is tyrannical, he doesn't seem to be someone who would kill the innocent. Looking at his current actions, he doesn't seem to have the intention of annihilating everyone in the Kunlun Sword Sect. Sect Leader, please remember the responsibility of the Kunlun Sword Sect. Think for the sake of the Kunlun Sword Sect and Kunlun. Try to keep your lives and bring the disciples away from here. We can make further plans in the future."
After listening to the telepathic message, Li Jiangang thought about the responsibility of the Kunlun Sword Sect for a thousand years and could only remain silent.
Ling Yun really didn't expect the Kunlun Sword Sect to be able to stick together in such a crisis. He was a little surprised and couldn't help but nod his head secretly.
Ling Yun was able to distinguish right from wrong. Enemies were enemies, and enemies were enemies. It was certain that he would seek revenge, but enemies might not necessarily be bad people. This was because everyone had their own goals and their own way of doing things. Otherwise, a sect wouldn't be able to exist for a long time and would have long been destroyed.
Li Kunwu couldn't be blamed for his performance back then. It was true that the Kunlun Sword Sect had some integrity to be able to nurture such a character.
Just as the other party had imagined, Ling Yun indeed didn't have the intention of annihilating the Kunlun Sword Sect. Of course, this was on the premise that they were sensible enough.
After Spiritual Master Zi Chen finished speaking to Li Jiangang, he turned to look at Ling Yun and said with a smile, "Ling Yun, as a descendant of the Ling Clan, your growth to such an extent has indeed exceeded everyone's expectations. Since you're now the meat on the chopping block, there's nothing more to say. If you want to take revenge, just come at me."
"Alright!"
After the two of them stood up, Ling Yun's Devil's Underworld Essence Blade was already in his hands. He wanted revenge, so he naturally couldn't be bothered to say another word.
Tsk, tsk!
The blade flashed, and the heads of the two Perfected Masters, Zi Qiu and Zi Chen, fell to the ground. Fresh blood spurted from their necks, and their corpses fell to the ground!
"Seeing that you didn't run away, I'll give you a quick death!"
Ling Yun said coldly before sheathing his blade.
Li Jiangang's expression changed drastically when he saw this scene. His whole body trembled, but he didn't say a word.
"Li Jiangang, your Kunlun Sword Sect is one of the initiators of this Devil Subduing Conference. As for the reason, even though you won't say it, I have a rough idea. I know that your Kunlun Sword Sect and my Ling Family actually have an unspeakable history."
As he spoke, Ling Yun stared deeply at Li Jiangang. Indeed, he discovered the helplessness and struggle in the other party's eyes.
Ling Yun was really too smart. Just from the appearance of the two Immortal Masters from Kunlun and the few sentences that Zhang Kunlun said, he already knew that the Kunlun Sword Sect had their own unspeakable difficulties in dealing with the Ling Family in the past and dealing with Ling Yun now. It wasn't as simple as slaying demons.
He didn't know about others, but the true mastermind behind the actions of the Kunlun Sword Sect was Kunlun!
"That's why I won't kill you tonight," Ling Yun said with a smile.
He then continued, "However, I'm sure you understand my temper now. Your Kunlun Sword Sect has mobilized so many people to come here to kill me and Xing Chen. I definitely won't let you off so easily." Ling Yun smiled and told the other party the truth frankly.
"So, as long as you're willing to put down your weapons and your hundred treasures pouches, you'll become like them …"
Ling Yun casually pointed to a corpse that had been completely plundered and continued, "Take out a few million merit points in exchange for your lives, and I'll let you go. How about that?"
…
Li Jiangang originally heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that his sect was safe. However, when he heard Ling Yun's last two sentences, he immediately collapsed!
A few million merit points? If that was the case, the Kunlun Sword Sect might as well be annihilated by Ling Yun.
"Hey, hey, hey … Don't be too agitated …"
Ling Yun hurriedly held Li Jiangang up and said with a smile, "Look, you don't have to be so agitated even if I say I'll spare your lives …"
Li Jiangang wanted to cry, but no tears came out. Did he collapse because Ling Yun spared their lives?
In the night sky, Ye Tianshui and Ye Tiandu couldn't help but look at each other after hearing that.
"Isn't this kid too black-hearted?" Ye Tianshui grinned.
"Yes, yes, I can't bear to look at it!" Ye Tiandu held his forehead.
Ye Tianshui gritted his teeth. "Damn! Ling Yun emptied the Kunlun Sword Sect in one go! "
"It might not be enough …" Ye Tiandu sighed.
"See, I knew that he was the one who ruined the Ye Family's auction!" Ye Tianshui said hatefully.
"Yes, plucking the feathers from the geese. You can't find anyone else with this kind of ability and means." Ye Tiandu nodded.
On the ground, Li Jiangang finally managed to regain his composure. He panted heavily. "Ling Yun, if that's the case, you might as well kill me with your sword. That would save me from suffering."
Ling Yun chuckled. "That's impossible. You all said that I killed the innocent. I'm such a good person. I would never bear such a crime. I have to prove myself."
He turned to look at the fence-sitters in the distance. "Am I right?"
Those fence-sitters were in the same state as Li Jiangang. Their faces had long changed. They finally understood that there was a price to be paid for sparing their lives.
"Yes."
However, it was too late. Those fence-sitters looked as if they had lost their parents. They hung their heads dejectedly.
Ling Yun roared, "Then why are you all still standing there and wasting time? Hurry up and hand over your weapons, pills, and treasure pouches. Check your merit points and hand them all over! "
"Tie Xiaohu, Mo Wudao, what are you two still standing there for? Hurry up and collect the money!"
After giving his orders, Ling Yun smiled at Li Jiangang once again.
"Sect Master Li, then is it convenient for you to take out your communication device and let me see your merit points?"
