"Those who doubted me before, step out now and slap your own face until I am satisfied."
His indifferent words were filled with arrogance and overbearingness!
Instantly, everyone present clenched their fists tightly while their faces flushed red. All of them felt extremely humiliated.
Those who doubted him before, step out now?
Everyone here questioned him before. This meant they had to slap themselves in the face until Ling Xian was satisfied.
What kind of humiliation was this?!
"Ling Xian, don't go too far!"
Chu Xing He was furious. Thinking about how he, the leader of the Chu Clan, was about to slap himself in the face before everyone, he found it hard to control himself and his anger reached a boiling point!
The rest of the completion levelled cultivators reacted the same way. They were all important figures. If they did as Ling Xian said, then they would lose all face.
"Going too far?"
Ling Xian revealed a cold smile. Thinking about all the unfairness the Chu Clan has shown him, he said in a cold voice, "My dear Clan Leader Chu, is it me who is going too far, or is it the Chu Clan who is going too far?"
Hearing this, Chu Xinghe froze. Thinking of the sinister plan from before and the evil plan from before, he was speechless.
Everyone present was silent, and they had nothing to say.
Inside everyone's heart, there is a scale that they use to measure right and wrong. Everyone present knew very well that from the beginning to the end, today's matter was the Chu family's fault. First, they made things difficult for Ling Xian. Then, they planned on making him lose all face and turn him into a handicap. How cruel was this?
Then, after Ling Xian passed the Tower of the Seventh Soul, these people showed no signs of remorse. Instead, they forced him to hand over the reward. How overbearing was this?
Now, Ling Xian was giving them a taste of their own medicine. Was that wrong? Nothing. Not even a little bit!
"To tell you the truth, I'm just that rude and unreasonable. I've bullied you too much. What can you do to me?"
The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up, revealing an arrogant smile, "If you have the guts, then don't listen. But if the Tower of the Seventh Soul is destroyed, then don't blame me."
"You!"
Chu Xing He was enraged, "Ling Xian, if you have the guts, then don't use the Tower to threaten the Chu Clan!"
"Threat?"
Ling Xian teased, "That's a good word. I am threatening you. If you don't like it, then make your move. I, Ling Xian, will … no, the Tower of the Seventh Soul will."
Then, Chu Xing He stopped talking. He gritted his teeth and stared at Ling Xian with cold killer's intent.
"Why are you looking at me?" Ling Xian chuckled and glanced around, "I will count to three. If you don't make a move by then, then I … will destroy the Tower of the Seventh Soul."
Damn it!
Everyone clenched their fists. No matter how unwilling they were, for the safety of the Tower, they had no choice but to obey.
"One."
Uttering out one word, the corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up. Then, he uttered out a second statement, "Two, everyone, please make the best use of your time.
Immediately, everyone stopped hesitating. They all raised their right hands and slapped the right side of their faces.
Pa!
A crisp sound rang out, followed by a series of slaps. Everyone was full of humiliation as they raised their right hands and slammed them down!
Everyone gritted their teeth and slapped themselves in the face. It was as if they wanted to use the pain to remember this moment of humiliation!
Even Chu Xing He and the other completion leveled powerhouses were no exceptions. Though they felt humiliated, Ling Xian controlled the life and death of the Tower. They had to suppress their anger and humiliation. Under everyone's gaze, they lost all their face.
Pa, pa, pa …
Crisp sounds rang out one after another, converging into a symphony that caused the Chu Clan members to feel even more humiliated as it resounded in this space.
"What a beautiful music …"
The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up. Looking at the Chu Clan members whose right cheeks were swelling up, he didn't feel any pity. He was simply giving them a taste of their own medicine. Everything was what the Chu Clan asked for.
If these people weren't so cruel and overbearing, why would he be so rude?
"Don't just hit one side. Change your hand." Ling Xian grinned and ordered, "You have to use more strength. Or else I will not be satisfied. If I am not satisfied, then the Tower of the Seventh Soul is finished."
Dammit!
This asshole!
Everyone was full of humiliation, but they had no choice but to listen to Ling Xian. They obediently extended their left hands and slapped their own cheeks!
Pa, pa, pa …
Another series of slaps rose. Everyone increased their strength, afraid that Ling Xian would be dissatisfied and detonate the Tower.
Very quickly, everyone's face swelled up. Even Chu Xing He and the other completion leveled powerhouses were red faced and swollen like a pig's head.
"Ling Xian, we have hit you so many times. You should be satisfied." Chu Xing He suddenly spoke. Though his expression was calm, underneath the calmness was a boiling anger and a deep sense of humiliation.
He was the leader of the Chu Clan, one of the five controlling forces of the Trading Island. Who dared to order him to slap himself? Yet now that Ling Xian had ordered him to do so, Chu Xing He had no choice but to obey. How could he endure this?
"Whether I am satisfied or not is not up to you to decide."
Ling Xian glared at Chu Xing He and leaped into the air. Peering down at everyone, he ordered, "Continue hitting me. This time, hit me from both sides. If I don't say anything, nobody can stop."
Hearing this, everyone chuckled. They were too lazy to be angry. Because they knew very well that so what if they were angry? They would still have to give in.
"Aye …"
Everyone silently sighed. They then raised their hands and slapped their right cheeks, then slapped their left cheeks. Just like that, everyone attacked left and right, alternating back and forth, ruthlessly slapping their own faces.
Slap, slap, slap!
Another series of slaps rose. Everyone's heart was full of bitterness and regret. They hated the fact that they shouldn't have doubted Ling Xian back then. They shouldn't have been rude to him and mocked him.
Sadly, it was all too late.
The Chu Clan purposely made things difficult for Ling Xian because they wanted to use him to get the reward for the seventh level. They also wanted to make him lose all face. The result was that they went for wool and came home shorn.
Not only did they allow Ling Xian to gain control of the Tower of the Seventh Soul, but they also allowed him to control the Chu Clan's lifeline. They also forced him to show them the truth and the confidence to slap everyone in the face and make the Chu Clan lose all face!
Therefore, how could these people not feel bitter?
Everyone slapped themselves so hard that blood was dripping down the corner of their mouths. Despite this, they did not stop. They continued to slap themselves left and right.
Because the terrifying demon did not tell them to stop.
Without a doubt, at this moment, everyone's face had been lost. The Chu Clan's face was gone as well!
"Very good. It seems like you all understand who has the upper hand now."
Looking at the bitter faces of the Chu Clan, Ling Xian grinned, feeling very satisfied. Now that he had control of the Tower of the Seventh Soul, he had the foundation of the Chu Clan. Therefore, the Chu Clan naturally had to listen to him.
In other words, if he gave the order, the Chu Clan would have to obey. This could be summed up in one sentence. Ling Xian had now gained full control of the Chu Clan!
Though he did not have full control, this was still very shocking. To know that the Chu Clan was extremely capable and was one of the five controlling forces on the Trading Island. Who could command this top force?
Ever since the Chu Clan was created thousands of years ago, no force has ever been able to do this, let alone one person. Yet now, Ling Xian had done it. How unbelievable was this? How dominating was this?
To put it bluntly, from this moment on, Ling Xian's status has skyrocketed and he can now do whatever he wants on the Trading Island.
"This trip sure was worth it …"
Ling Xian was secretly overjoyed. He didn't think that his compassion back then would bring him such great rewards today!
"Master Xian, I know I was wrong. Everyone in the Chu Clan knows they were wrong as well. Please have mercy and let us go." Chu Xing He chuckled bitterly. He didn't think there would come a day when he, the leader of the Clan, would have to beg for mercy.
This filled him with anger and humiliation. But there was nothing he could do. He could only sigh bitterly.
"If you had done this earlier, then none of this would have happened."
Seeing that Chu Xing He had completely given in, Ling Xian's lips curled up. The anger in his heart finally dissipated, "Alright, since you have been slapping yourselves so hard, I will allow you to stop."
Hearing this, Chu Xing He sighed in relief. Everyone else relaxed as well. But what followed was an uncontrollable anger.
These people were descendants of the Chu Clan with high statuses. Who dared to treat them like this? He hit them when he wanted to and stopped when he wanted to. Why wouldn't they be angry?
However, no matter how hard they tried to control their anger, they had to swallow it!
Everyone here finally understood that as long as Ling Xian controlled 60 percent of the Tower, they had to swallow their anger and listen to him! What could they do?
Who told Ling Xian to control 60 percent of the Tower after all? As long as he was in the Chu Clan, he could communicate with the tower at any time. He was undefeatable and nobody could hurt a hair on his head!
Therefore, everyone in the Chu Clan had to listen to Ling Xian's orders.
"Tsk tsk, seeing you all trying to vent your anger but are too afraid to, I feel very good." Ling Xian teased and shifted his gaze towards Chu Xing He. In a commanding tone, he said:
"Chu Xing He, wait for my message. The moment the other two clans agree to form an alliance, you will bring all the elites and head to the Bai Clan."
At this, Chu Xing He's anger boiled. As one of the five controlling forces of the Trading Island, who dared to order him around? However, no matter how angry he was, he had to suppress it.
After a long sigh, he seemed to have aged a few decades. He said bitterly, "Aye, do not worry, Master Xian. I will be there when the time comes."
"Very good. Wait for my message." Ling Xian smiled in satisfaction and slowly descended from the sky. He walked towards the Chu Clan's gate step by step.
When he arrived, he smashed through the Chu Clan's barrier with one punch. When he left, he walked out of the Chu Clan with light steps and nobody dared to stop him.
How ironic was this?
"Oh right, don't even think about sending people to kill me. If you do, the Tower will be destroyed."
Ling Xian suddenly stopped his steps. Under everyone's humiliated gaze, he laughed out loud and continued to march forward. His eyes flashed with anticipation.
"It's time to go to the Nan Gong Clan."
