"Little friend, please stop."
A helpless statement arose. Accompanied by a mysterious force, Ling Xian was forced to stop.
Then, an old man in a white robe appeared in mid-air. He had white hair, a youthful complexion, and a sage-like bearing. His eyes were deep and contained talisman markings, and he was obviously an almighty figure that had cultivated the Dao of Talismans to an extremely high realm.
When they saw this person, Ning Feng and the others immediately revealed pleasant surprise, and their hearts sank.
"It's the Master of the Talisman Tower. He actually emerged from his closed door cultivation?"
"This is bad. Even though the Master of the Talisman Tower isn't skilled in combat, his attainments in the Talisman Dao are unfathomable. Young Master Ling is in danger."
"Exactly. He bashed up a few elders this time, and it's equivalent to slapping the Talisman Tower's face. The Tower Master will surely not let the matter go!"
Everyone cried out in alarm, filled with worry.
"The master of the Talisman Tower? Ling Xian squinted his eyes, but he was not afraid.
He could tell that this person was a late-stage Dao-Integration expert. Given his current combat strength, he would be able to put up a fight no matter how high this person's attainments in the Talisman Dao were.
Therefore, he stared back fearlessly and said, "Why did you stop me?"
"They're members of my Talisman Tower, so even if they've committed a mistake, they shouldn't be punished by an outsider." The Master of the Talisman Tower sighed helplessly. His words weren't really intense, and his tone didn't carry much rage.
This startled Ning Feng and them. Then, they all opened their mouths and accused Ling Xian of a few crimes.
"Tower Master, this person disregarded the rules of my Talisman Tower and beat us to such a state. You must uphold justice for us!"
"Exactly, he's slapping the Talisman Tower's face. If we don't punish him, then where would the face of our Talisman Tower be?"
"That's right. Pagoda Master, you can't be soft-hearted!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd was instantly enraged. However, before they had the time to curse, they heard an angry shout.
"Shut up!"
The Master of the Talisman Tower shouted in a grim voice. "Haven't you embarrassed yourselves enough?!"
Hearing this, Ning Feng and them froze. They couldn't understand why the Tower Leader was scolding them. Shouldn't he be scolding Ling Xian instead?
"You actually dare to go against my Talisman Tower? It's been completely disgraced by all of you scum!"
The Talisman Tower's Master was furious, and he pointed at them and cursed. "Do all of you think I don't know what happened earlier? Let me tell you, from the beginning to the end, I've been watching, watching how you abuse your power for personal gain and distort the truth! "
Hearing this, Ning Feng and the others were stunned. They did not expect the Pagoda Master to be watching from the side from the beginning.
This meant that the Master of the Talisman Tower was clearly aware of who was in the right and who was in the wrong, and it meant that he was in a terrible state.
"I originally thought that even if you were to abuse your power for personal gain, you wouldn't go too far, turning a blind eye to it. I didn't expect that you would even dare to manipulate the champion! "
"Not only has this brought shame to my Talisman Tower, it's also cut off the continuation of the Talisman Tower!"
"Who would participate in the competition after what you've done? How will my Talisman Tower continue without participants? "
"You vermin, you deserve to die!"
The Talisman Tower's Master grew angrier the more he spoke, and he couldn't help but slap them, causing them to be blasted 300m away.
Boom!
The mountain collapsed, their bones shattered, and it was strenuous for them to even stand up.
This caused everyone to cheer loudly, and their worry instantly vanished without a trace.
The Talisman Tower's actions had displayed his attitude. At the very least, he wouldn't blame Ling Xian. In this way, everyone naturally didn't have to worry anymore.
Ling Xian smiled as well, and he said to himself, This Talisman Tower's Master can be considered to be a reasonable person. After that, he smiled lightly and said, "Since the Pagoda Master knows that they're scum, then please give me an explanation and give everyone here an explanation."
"Don't worry, I'll surely give you an explanation."
The Talisman Tower's Master glanced coldly at Ning Feng and the others before he said, "I'm punishing all of you to reflect on your mistakes for 50 years. Do all of you have any objections?"
Ning Feng and the others smiled bitterly when they heard this, and they displayed that they had no objections.
They finally understood that if the Talisman Tower's Master didn't punish them, then it would be utterly impossible to convince everyone. In other words, they were bound to be unable to escape calamity.
Compared to those punishments, reflecting on their mistakes for 50 years was undoubtedly the easiest punishment, and it was even to the extent that it was equivalent to no punishment at all.
No one knew if they would face the wall or not, and no one cared if they had 50 years of punishment. So not only did Ning Feng and the others not feel afraid, they heaved sighs of relief instead.
"Very good."
The Talisman Tower's Master couldn't be bothered with them anymore. He moved his gaze towards Ling Xian and said politely, "I wonder if you're satisfied with my explanation?"
Ling Xian laughed when he heard this. There was ridicule and coldness in his laughter.
To a cultivator, 50 years was like the blink of an eye. Moreover, it was merely reflecting on their mistakes, and it couldn't be considered a punishment at all!
So he slowly spat out four words. Even though it was calm, it was filled with determination.
"I'm not satisfied."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Talisman Tower's Master frowned and said, "I've already punished them. Why are you still not satisfied?"
"You have to ask them that question."
Ling Xian pointed at the Talisman Masters that were harmed by the conspiracy and shouted, "Are all of you satisfied with this punishment?"
"I'm not!"
Everyone spoke at the same time, and they were filled with resentment and unwillingness.
"Did you hear that, Tower Master? Every single one of them is dissatisfied. "Ling Xian glanced at the old man and retracted his evaluation of this old man.
He could tell that even though this old man was furious, he had the intention to protect them. Otherwise, why would he give such a light punishment?
"Then I wonder what punishment you want?" The Talisman Tower's Master's expression turned cold.
"I don't care about those people. But Ning Feng must die!" Ling Xian's voice was resolute and powerful.
"Impossible! Even though they were in the wrong, they don't deserve to die. "
The Talisman Tower's Master refused right away. Ning Feng and the others were grandmasters, and they were valuable assets to the Talisman Tower. So they naturally couldn't be killed.
"Since it's like that, then I'll do it."
Ling Xian's expression turned cold as he moved his gaze towards everyone else and said, "Today, I will surely seek justice for all of you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, their first reaction wasn't excitement, but worry.
The Talisman Tower's Master had clearly expressed that it was impossible for him to kill Ning Feng, but Ling Xian insisted on killing Ning Feng. This meant that he was standing on the opposite side of this person.
In this way, how could they not be worried?
"Presumptuous!"
The Talisman Tower's Master was furious. "Do you still have me, the Tower Master, in your eyes?"
"In my eyes, only reasonable people are tolerated."
Ling Xian spoke indifferently. "I truly don't have anyone who intentionally protects someone like you."
"Good, good, good."
The Tower Master said 'good' three times in a row, and he was so angry that he started laughing. "Let me see how you kill Ning Feng before my eyes."
"Even if you're the Tower Master, you can't stop me from killing someone I want to kill!"
Ling Xian's eyes shot out cold lightning, and as his black hair fluttered in the wind, his boundless energy shook the heavens and the earth. After that, the Disorder Conquering Fist smashed out powerfully!
Bang!
The Tower Master's expression changed. He used all his strength to defend, but it was difficult for him to stop the power of this punch, and he was blasted back a few steps.
Ling Xian used this gap to appear before Ning Feng, and the Sword of Extinction was pressed against Ning Feng's neck.
After that, along with a cold statement, Ning Feng's head flew into the air and fresh blood sprayed everywhere.
"I told you, you can't stop me from killing someone I want to kill."
