"I told you, you can't stop me if I want to kill someone."
With that, Ning Feng's head fell to the ground.
His widened eyes were filled with fear, regret, and disbelief. It was as if he couldn't believe that Ling Xian dared to kill him in front of the Tower of Talismans.
This was something that no one could believe.
The four judges opened their mouths wide. Feeling the warmth of the blood on their bodies, they couldn't help but tremble.
Dead.
Ning Feng had died, and he was killed by Ling Xian right before the eyes of the Tower's Lord. How could they not feel terrified?
At this moment, they finally realized how stupid they were and didn't dare to clamor anymore.
Because reality proved that Ling Xian didn't care about the leader of the tower at all, and he didn't even care about the entire tower!
Not only did they feel regret, but they also found it hard to believe.
All eyes were fixated on Ling Xian. They felt like their worldview was crumbling and the entire world was collapsing.
If the Master of the Talisman Tower hadn't shown himself, then beating Ning Feng up would have been fine. But under the circumstances that the Master of the Talisman Tower had made an appearance, killing the Master of the Talisman Tower couldn't be described as a provocation, it was a declaration of battle!
Despite this, Ling Xian still killed Ning Feng. How dominating was this?
How inconceivable was that?
"My god! We're finished now. It's no different than declaring war against the Talisman Tower!"
"It's over. Now, the Master of the Talisman Tower doesn't even have a way out, and he'll surely fight Young Master Ling to the death!"
"He's too domineering. Even the master of the Talisman Tower disregarded him. Young Master Ling is truly boundlessly domineering."
"His strength is sufficiently formidable as well. He was actually able to blast the Master of the Talisman Tower back with a single punch. No wonder everyone says he's a monster that can surmount a realm to do battle. My horizons have been broadened today."
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air at the same time. The emotions revealed in their tone were very complicated.
There was shock, lament, awe, and worry.
"What a daring brat. No wonder the rumors say that you are domineering and never willing to suffer losses. Today, I have finally seen it for myself."
The Lord of the Tower of Talisman was about to explode from rage, and he was like an enraged lion that wanted to tear Ling Xian into pieces.
He was also very angry with Ning Feng and the others' actions, and he wished he could kill them. However, he couldn't do that.
Besides him, the Talisman Tower only had a total of seven talisman formation grandmasters, and all of them were the most precious treasures of the Talisman Tower. If these five people were killed, then the strength of the Talisman Tower would definitely suffer a disastrous decline.
Therefore, he only wanted to teach Ning Feng and the others a light lesson. He also wanted to comfort the contestants who were kicked out of the competition. Then, he would call it a day.
He didn't think Ling Xian would be so bold as to kill Ning Feng right before his eyes. This was slapping him in the face!
So, the Talisman Tower's Master was furious to the extreme. However, right when he intended to make a move, he heard something.
A sentence that sobered him up.
"Before you make a move, please think about whether it's worth it to become my enemy for a dead person."
Ling Xian spoke softly. His tone was as light as the clouds and the wind, as calm as ever.
The reason he'd killed Ning Feng before the Master of the Talisman Tower was firstly because he was too furious, and secondly because he was confident.
He wasn't the rootless duckweed from before. Even though the current him didn't have the name of a Holy Lord, he had the strength of a Holy Lord!
Moreover, it wasn't just his own combat strength that was formidable, he had the entire Pavilion of Three Lives standing behind him. Coupled with the Myriad Treasure Tower that owed him a huge favor, his strength could be said to be terrifyingly formidable.
Even if he faced a colossus like the Talisman Tower, he had the strength to fight it!
This was why Ling Xian killed Ning Feng in front of the Tower of Talismans. Otherwise, he wouldn't act so rashly.
"Is it worth it?"
The Master of the Talisman Tower instantly sobered up and fell into deep thought.
This was a question that was worthy of deep thought, and it was a question that didn't need to be considered at all.
Ling Xian's actions were indeed a slap to his face, but Ning Feng was dead, so his value would be nothing.
Ling Xian, on the other hand, had an extremely high value, and even a living Ning Feng couldn't compare to half of Ling Xian's value!
After that attack from before, the Master of the Talisman Tower had an understanding of Ling Xian's strength. If they were to fight to the death, then Ling Xian would have a 50% chance of winning.
On the other hand, even though he wasn't a Holy Lord, the Pavilion of Three Lives was willing to give up everything for him, so it was equivalent to being a Holy Lord.
Thus, the Master of the Talisman Tower fell into a dilemma, and he didn't know if he should stop now or fight to the death.
"If you were all alone, then I suggest you fight me to the death. But you're shouldering the rise and fall of the entire Talisman Tower, so I advise you to think carefully before you act."
Ling Xian glanced indifferently at this person and didn't say anything. He believed that this person wasn't an idiot and would surely make the correct judgment.
After he heard what Ling Xian said, the Master of the Talisman Tower became even more conflicted.
Ning Feng was dead and worthless, whereas Ling Xian wasn't just a talisman grandmaster, he was a monster that could surmount realms to do battle, and he even had a colossus like the Pavilion of Three Lives standing behind him.
This meant that once the battle began, the entire Talisman Tower might be lost!
In this way, how could the Master of the Talisman Tower not be conflicted? In the end, he chose to give in.
Ling Xian was right. If he was all alone, then he could naturally act rashly for the sake of face. But he was the Master of the Talisman Tower, and he shouldered the entire Talisman Tower. This caused him to have to be rational.
On the other hand, reason told him that giving up now was the absolutely correct choice.
"Forget it. My Talisman Tower admits defeat today." The Master of the Talisman Tower let out a long sigh, and he seemed as if he'd aged a few tens of years.
"A wise choice."
The corners of Ling Xian's mouth curled up, and the rage in his heart had completely vanished.
Everyone else was the same.
Never had they imagined that the Master of the Talisman Tower would actually restrain his rage and choose to give in. This caused them to be shocked, and they suddenly realized that they'd underestimated Ling Xian.
This was something that was obvious. If his status wasn't enough, then the Master of the Talisman Tower would have made a move against him a long time ago. How could he have given in?
At the same time, everyone felt happy.
The Master of the Talisman Tower's attitude was obviously to protect Ning Feng. But now that Ning Feng was dead, he chose to let bygones be bygones. This meant that the Talisman Tower had completely given in, so how could everyone not be happy?
Instantly, cheers shook the heavens and the earth. Everyone took Ling Xian to be a hero and were filled with respect.
"To be more precise, I was forced to make this choice." The Master of the Talisman Tower glanced deeply at Ling Xian, and his gaze contained too many emotions.
Rage, unwillingness, resentment, but most of all, there was helplessness and bitterness.
The great Talisman Tower was actually forced to such a state by a single person, so how could he not feel bitterness and helplessness?
"But this choice is very wise indeed. At the very least, it's correct."
Ling Xian smiled lightly, and he didn't have the complacency and pride of a victor. But in the eyes of the Master of the Talisman Tower, it was extremely irritating, but he was helpless.
He could afford to gamble, but the entire Talisman Tower couldn't.
"It doesn't matter if it's wrong or correct. I don't want to speak about what happened today, so let it pass." The Master of the Talisman Tower let out a long sigh, and he seemed to be extremely old and exhausted.
"We can't go over yet."
Ling Xian pointed at the participants that were harmed by the black screen and said, "Does Tower Master not intend to give them an explanation?"
