Bell was nervous.
Great Elder Xie Tian had gone to the Life and Death Realm with the Killing Sword, but only one had returned …
"Even if he's not dead, something must have happened to him …"
"Eldest Senior Sister, you don't have to worry."
Seeing Bell pacing back and forth anxiously, An Xi couldn't help but say, "Even the Ugly Cave Master can't do anything to the Great Elder, let alone the Killing Sword."
"You're familiar with the Great Elder?" Mu Ye looked at An Xi. "Why don't you tell me how he killed Luo Tang?"
An Xi shrunk her neck and didn't say anything.
"Bell, An Xi is right." Mu Ye chuckled. "No matter how powerful the Killing Sword is, he can't compare to Rakshasa. Don't worry."
Bell said worriedly, "Master, perhaps it wasn't the Killing Sword that targeted the Great Elder, but …"
Before she could finish, the Killing Sword spoke again impatiently.
"Fine, I'll tell you the details and make you give up."
The Killing Sword snorted lightly and continued, "That half-life almost caused the Li Mi Life and Death Realm to collapse. Now, the Li Mi Death Realm has automatically closed, and will only reopen after a million years. The twelve cave masters were furious, and even the Killing Star was startled … Hehe, Junior Sister is an intelligent person. Even if Senior Brother didn't say it, you should know what his consequences are, right?"
Bell and An Xi were scared out of their wits. Even Mu Ye was dumbfounded.
"The Life and Death Realm collapsed?"
"The Twelve Cave Masters were furious?"
"Even the Killing Star was alarmed …"
…
"Master, something must have happened to the Great Elder!" Ling Dang couldn't imagine how terrifying the twelve Cave Masters and the Killing Star would be. She cried out with a pale face.
"As expected of the Great Elder. He's so pretentious …" An Xi sat on the ground in a daze.
Mu Ye also began to tremble. He knew that Xie Tian was powerful, but he didn't expect Xie Tian to be able to cause the Life and Death Realm to collapse!
"That's one of the founders of the Underworld Cave, the pinnacle Supremacy Li Mi. How, how could he collapse it … Oh no, this is bad!"
As an elder of the Underworld Cave, Mu Ye was well aware of the significance of the Li Mi Life and Death Realm.
"Underworld Cave's old monsters, a total of forty and nine of them, all became Dao-Enlightening Paragons because of the fortune of the Li Mi Life and Death Realm. Now that the Li Mi Life and Death Realm is closed, how can the higher-ups of the Underworld Cave not be angry …"
Mu Ye's face also gradually paled. "Grand Elder of the Old Man, why, why are you always so good at stirring up trouble …"
"Master, I'll go and plead for the Great Elder!" Ling Dang came back to her senses and said firmly.
Mu Ye shook his head with a bitter smile, "It's useless, it's useless. You have no idea how important the Li Mi Life and Death Realm is to the Dark Cave. Great Elder is doomed this time …"
Bell's eyes flickered for a long time. Finally, she said fiercely, "If worst comes to worst, I'll go beg him!"
Mu Ye was startled, but then he flew into a rage. "Little Sword, you're too ambitious! Don't!"
"But Great Elder, he …"
"What do you know? Sit down!" Mu Ye reprimanded him with both relief and pain. "Let's not talk about whether Xiaojian has the ability or not. If you go to him, you'll be walking into a tiger's den!"
Ling Dang was confused. "Master, didn't he only want me to be his disciple?"
"You're too naive." Mu Ye shook his head. "What Xiaojian wants is not you, but your blood essence. Do you understand?"
Ling Dang's pupils shrank.
"Xiaojian is different from the Great Elder," Mu Ye said solemnly. "Although the Great Elder also wants to study your blood essence, he has his own principles. As for that Xiaojian, hmph … In any case, you must be careful of him in the future!"
Ling Dang suppressed the fear in her heart and asked anxiously, "Then how are we going to save the Great Elder?"
"We can't …" Mu Ye shook his head sadly. "The only thing we can do now is to leave with An Xi. The Old Man harmed the Great Elder, but he can't do the same to you …"
"Master, you can't …"
"Listen to me!"
Ling Dang couldn't change Mu Ye's mind. She could only watch helplessly as her junior brother carried Mu Ye out of the cave. Her eyes were moist with killing intent.
"The Killing Sword won't even spare an old man …"
Whoosh …
The moment Ling Dang rushed out of the cave, Mu Ye's voice exploded in the air.
"Ling Dang, are you trying to betray your master?!"
Ling Dang's murderous body froze in place. Her entire body trembled, showing just how unwilling she was.
The assassins surrounding the cave couldn't help but laugh. The Killing Sword said indifferently, "Betray your master? Mu Ye, you're a cripple. What right do you have to teach others? "
Ling Dang exploded in anger. "The Killing Sword, you …"
"Shut up!" Mu Ye was even angrier than Ling Dang, but he could only suppress the humiliation and unwillingness in his heart. "The Old Man will leave the Ugly Cave. An Xi, let's go!"
The assassins sneered.
"Oh? Aren't you so arrogant?"
"Don't you have the protection of the Zi Cave assassins?"
"Didn't you come as you please and treat us as nothing?"
"Heh, now you know what it means to be a stray dog …"
…
"You want to leave? Sure. " The Killing Sword's eyes narrowed as he stepped forward to block An Xi's path. He looked at Mu Ye mockingly. "Swear an oath to sever all ties with Junior Sister Ling Dang. Otherwise, the two of you can only walk out of here alive."
Ling Dang's petite body trembled violently. The last shred of reason binding her was instantly burned into nothingness.
"You deserve to die, Killing Sword!"
"Fine. The Old Man swears!"
Mu Ye laughed bitterly. He looked deeply at Ling Dang with his green eyes and opened his mouth to swear an oath that would not rest in peace.
But at that moment, a soft voice rang out.
"What's with the commotion?"
Everyone turned around in shock. It was as if they had seen a ghost!
"It's you!"
"Holy shit, how is this possible?!"
"The Great Elder!"
"Haha, it's the Great Elder! That's great!"
…
The Killing Sword's eyes almost popped out of their sockets when he saw that Xie Tian was completely fine. "How did you get out? No, that's impossible. You must have escaped. Everyone, listen up! Surround this Underworld Cave criminal! "
Xie Tian ignored the Killing Sword and turned to Mu Ye, who had his right hand raised high.
"Senior, you also have the Child Cave Token?"
The overjoyed Mu Ye blushed upon hearing this, and he chuckled angrily, "That's because some ignorant little assassin forced me to swear an oath!"
"That's him!" An Xi added, "Great Elder, this guy even said that the twelve cave masters would not let you off the hook for collapsing the Li Mi Life and Death Mirror."
"Collapsing?" Xie Tian looked at the Killing Sword.
The Killing Sword sneered. "Even if it didn't collapse, the Li Mi Life and Death Mirror was sealed because of you. Is that true?"
"I'm asking you if it collapsed."
The Killing Sword snorted. "No!"
"Then why did you say that?"
"I said it almost collapsed!" The Killing Sword pointed angrily at An Xi. "This guy missed two words!"
An Xi stared at Xie Tian with a dumbfounded expression. "T-T-Great Elder, i-is there really such a thing?"
"We'll talk about it later." Xie Tian didn't want to talk about it. He looked at Mu Ye and said, "Senior, since they don't welcome us, let's go."
"Alright." Mu Ye was satisfied that he could leave without severing his master-disciple relationship with Ling Dang.
The Killing Sword was so angry that he laughed. He waved his hand, and the assassins immediately hid in the void, surrounding Xie Tian's group.
"If we let a felon like you leave the Clown Cave, we will lose face!" The Killing Sword's killing intent exploded as he said coldly, "This person's strength is weak. Whoever captures him will be promoted one rank higher!"
"Stop!"
Just as they were about to attack, a person suddenly appeared!
The assassins of the Clown Cave, including Ling Dang, knelt to greet him. "Greetings, Cave Master!"
"Alright, you may rise."
"Master." The Killing Sword stood up and pointed at Xie Tian. "This person is a felon of the Underworld Cave, but he escaped into our Clown Cave. It's a good opportunity to capture him …"
The Clown Cave Master was sizing up Xie Tian, feeling both puzzled and depressed.
"The Old Man can't figure out what Little Sister sees in this person that she's willing to fight against the three Purple Myrtle Killing Stars for him …"
Recalling the confused expressions of the eleven cave masters of the Heavenly Kill Cave, he sighed inwardly and waved his hand impatiently. "Congratulations on sending the assassin of the Clown Cave off with half his life!"
Send off? Mu Ye and the other two's eyes almost fell out of their sockets. The Great Elder had become even more powerful after a trip?
The Killing Sword's body also stiffened. "Master, he, he's a felon of the Underworld Cave …"
The Cave Master's eyes turned cold. "Who told you that?"
The Killing Sword shook his head and said in confusion, "The Life and Death Realm matter, it was him …"
"Enough!" Seeing that his disciple had touched his sore spot, the Cave Master was furious. "Half a life is a killer of the Clown Cave. What right do you, a mere killer of the Clown Cave, have to discuss this? Hurry up and apologize!"
The Killing Sword was about to go crazy, but seeing the fierce look in his master's eyes, he could only suppress the urge to vomit blood and kowtow to Xie Tian. "S-Sorry, Senior Brother Half a life …"
"It's fine," Xie Tian said with a smile. "We're family, don't be so polite."
"Family …"
The Killing Sword had a bad feeling when he heard these three words, but before he could say anything, Xie Tian looked at the Clown Cave Master.
"Cave Master, your disciple and I made a bet. Whoever passed the four trials first would be the winner. Now that I've won, your disciple has become mine."
The Killing Sword pointed at Xie Tian in anger and laughed. "How dare you! Let's not talk about whether I'm willing or not. Where did you get the confidence to think that you can talk to a cave master … "
Before he finished speaking, the Clown Cave Master spat out a word.
"But."
Boom!
The Killing Sword felt as if he had been struck by lightning. "No, no, no, Master, you …"
"From today onwards, the Killing Sword is the abandoned disciple of the Old Man!" The Clown Cave Master said lightly, then smiled at Xie Tian. "I have many matters to attend to, so I won't send you off."
"I dare not trouble you, Cave Master."
Xie Tian cupped his fists and bowed. He watched as the Clown Cave Master left, then looked at the Killing Sword and said with a faint smile, "Hey, the Cave Master has kicked you out. Why don't you make a Dao Oath to sever all ties with him?"
Thump!
The Killing Sword sat on the ground, his soul flying to an unknown place …
