Nie Tian looked at Sima Xiu in confusion, unable to react for a long time.
He had thought that even if Sima Xiu didn't kill him, he would be severely punished.
Who would have thought that Sima Xiu would let it go just like that?
Moreover, he could tell that Sima Xiu was trying to protect him.
He could feel that the way Sima Xiu looked at him was not normal. There was an indescribable strangeness in it, as if there was a bit of jealousy, but also a bit of anticipation.
Nie Tian couldn't help but wonder who Sima Xiu was. Could he be someone who was related to him?
At the same time, Sima Xiu was also thinking. He stared at Nie Tian and thought, "Nie Tian, I hope Master is right."
With Sima Xiu's status, he shouldn't be here. Even the battle between Nie Tian and Dongfang Ting shouldn't have alerted the disciplinary hall's leader.
The reason why he had come here was because someone had asked him to find Nie Tian.
The person who asked him to come was his master, the leader of the Blood Soul Sect, Blood Soul Laozu!
In the Blood Soul Sect, other than a few important figures, very few people knew that Sima Xiu was Blood Soul Laozu's disciple.
Sima Xiu was also surprised that a mere Nie Tian would alert Blood Soul Laozu.
At this moment, as he looked at Nie Tian, he seemed to understand something.
Nie Tian had been calm and collected ever since he had arrived, as if he had never been alarmed by anything that had happened.
It was rare to see a cultivator with such a temperament.
More importantly, Nie Tian's strength was so strong that it made people's hair stand on end.
Tyrannizing an expert like Dongfang Ting with a cultivation of the eighth stage of Heaven Yun wasn't something an ordinary genius could do.
Looking at Nie Tian, Sima Xiu's eyes flickered as he thought to himself, "Nie Tian, are you really going to become the person Master hopes for?"
He knew that Blood Soul Laozu must have found something on Nie Tian. Otherwise, he wouldn't have arranged for him to come and protect Nie Tian.
Blood Soul Laozu's original words were: He could die on the Path of Blood Soul, but he could not die in an accident!
From this, it could be seen that Blood Soul Laozu had great expectations for Nie Tian.
Sima Xiu knew that all blood soul martial practitioners would be tested and sensed by Blood Soul Laozu the moment they stepped onto the Blood Soul Arena.
For Nie Tian to be able to attract the attention of Blood Soul Laozu, there must be something extraordinary about him.
Sima Xiu also knew another secret: Blood Soul Laozu's lifespan was coming to an end and he did not have much time left.
Blood Soul Laozu had taken a liking to Nie Tian at this time. The meaning behind this was not simple.
Nie Tian looked at Sima Xiu. He knew that the latter was thinking about something, but he couldn't guess what the latter was thinking.
"Stop here?" At this time, Dongfang Ting finally reacted. His eyes trembled and he cried out in surprise.
He knew that Sima Xiu was an iron-faced tiger and would handle everything impartially.
However, at this moment, Sima Xiu did not seem to be handling things impartially. Instead, he was obviously protecting Nie Tian.
Sima Xiu's eyes darkened as he swept his gaze across the crowd and said in a Cold voice, "Before the Path of Blood Soul begins, I do not wish to see any private fights!"
Everyone felt Sima Xiu's cold gaze and lowered their heads, each and every one of them trembling in fear.
"Hall Leader Sima, isn't it a little inappropriate for you to do this?" But at this moment, a low murderous voice rang out. After which, a grey-robed figure appeared, exuding a majestic aura. The instant he descended, he was like a mountain, causing the surrounding space to sink, as though it was about to collapse.
"Hmm?" Sima Xiu's eyes narrowed as he looked at the newcomer. His expression changed as he sneered, "So it's Lord Dongfang."
"Lord Dongfang!" Everyone's eyes widened as they looked at the newcomer. Their expressions changed.
So this person who suddenly appeared was the Blood Soul Sect's Vice Lord, Dongfang Jiu Ling. No wonder he was so strong.
Not far behind Dongfang Jiu Ling stood a black-robed cultivator. Although his aura was slightly weaker, it was still very frightening, not any weaker than Sima Xiu's.
This person's status was also very high. He was the Blood Soul Sect's Hall Leader, Sang Xiongyu!
"Father!" At this time, Dongfang Ting and Sang Hui saw Dongfang Jiu Ling and Sang Xiongyu. Their eyes lit up with joy as they called out in unison.
The two of them called out their respective fathers. Dongfang Jiu Ling was Dongfang Ting's father and Sang Xiongyu was Sang Hui's father.
Dongfang Jiu Ling and Sang Xiongyu's sudden appearance was something that no one had expected.
Dongfang Ting and Sang Hui were both heavily injured. The arrival of their fathers at this time caused the atmosphere of the scene to become strange.
"Lord Dongfang, Hall Leader Sang, you two really came at the right time." Sima Xiu's lips twitched as he looked at the two. His tone was somewhat strange.
He had just arrived and Dongfang Jiu Ling and Sang Xiongyu had appeared. This was no coincidence.
Sima Xiu had long known that Dongfang Jiu Ling had been watching him. Whenever he made a move, the latter would know.
Everyone in the Blood Soul Sect knew that there was a direct competition between Dongfang Jiu Ling and Sima Xiu: the fight for the position of Sect Leader!
Blood Soul Laozu had proposed to abdicate several years ago, and the people closest to the position of Sect Leader were originally the two Vice Lords.
However, the other Vice Lord was too old and had no intention of competing for the position of Sect Leader, so Sima Xiu became the second candidate after Dongfang Ting.
But in these few years, Blood Soul Laozu had been waiting for the Blood Soul Road to open, so the true candidate for the next Sect Leader had not been decided.
Everyone in the Blood Soul Sect knew that once the Blood Soul Road ended, the next Sect Leader of the Blood Soul Sect would be decided.
In this special period, it was not strange that Dongfang Jiu Ling had been watching Sima Xiu.
At this moment, the two finally met and seemed to want to use this matter to fight.
"Since Hall Master Sima is here, Brother Dongfang and I naturally have to follow." Sang Xiongyu looked at Sima Xiu and said with a Cold smile.
In the fight for the position of Sect Leader, he was Dongfang Jiu Ling's staunchest supporter!
"Hmph hmph." Sima Xiu sneered and said directly, "Sect Leader Dongfang, why did you follow me here?"
"Dongfang Ting, what happened here just now?" Dongfang Jiu Ling laughed and did not answer Sima Xiu. Instead, she looked at Dongfang Ting and asked.
Dongfang Ting's figure moved and came to Dongfang Jiu Ling's side. He then recounted what had just happened, of course, omitting the part where he provoked Nie Tian.
In his words, Nie Tian became the one who provoked him first.
"Hall Master Sima, this person humiliated Dongfang Ting and Sang Hui in front of so many people, and even seriously injured them. Yet, you said that everything should end here. Don't you think it's unfair for you to deal with it like this? "Dongfang Jiu Ling smiled coldly, the corner of his mouth pulled up in a cold smile, and his eyes surged with suppressed anger.
Sima Xiu was silent for a moment, then laughed strangely and said, "Do I not need others to teach me how to do things?"
"Hmm?" Dongfang Jiu Ling heard Sima Xiu's words and his face immediately darkened, becoming even more cold.
He did not think that Sima Xiu would not even explain and directly put on a domineering attitude.
