Inside his study, Ling Xian frowned and his eyes flickered with coldness.
Back then, Xuanyuan Hong ambushed him and tried to kill him. He remembered this very clearly. Today, he had returned safely. Naturally, he had to avenge himself and kill this person.
Therefore, he asked, "Where is he right now?"
"The Xuan Yuan Clan."
Xiang Jiuchen bitterly chuckled, "This clan is a famous force in the Luo Yang Region. Though it cannot compare to the major Houses, it is not to be underestimated."
"The Xuan Yuan Clan …"
Ling Xian frowned. From Xiang Jiuchen's words, it wasn't hard to tell that this force was very powerful. Even the Pavilion of Three Lives cannot ignore it.
But so what? He had to avenge himself!
"So, that's why you didn't cause trouble for Xuanyuan Hong?"
The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up in mockery, "The leader of the Hidden Pavilion was ambushed and no one knows if he's dead or alive. Yet you didn't do anything. What a leader of the Pavilion of Three Lives."
Hearing this, Xiang Jiuchen revealed a bitter and awkward expression. He had nothing to say.
When Ning Yan told him about Ling Xian jumping into the Abyss of Demons, he was furious. But in the end, he didn't do anything to Xuanyuan Hong.
For one, the Xuan Yuan Clan was very capable. For two, he thought Ling Xian was dead.
It was true that Ling Xian was the leader of the Hidden Pavilion. But how could a dead leader compare to the Xuan Yuan Clan?
Therefore, he didn't do anything in the end. After all, Ling Xian was merely an Honorable Guest. The Pavilion of Three Lives had the right to not do anything and they wouldn't lose face.
"How disappointing."
Ling Xian's face was full of sarcasm, "I was ambushed and you refused to help me. I can't believe I told you about the Abyss of Demons so you could prepare."
Hearing this, Xiang Jiuchen felt even more awkward. He knew he was in the wrong and had nothing to say.
After a moment of silence, he sighed, "Ling Xian, the Pavilion of Three Lives has wronged you. I hope you don't take it to heart."
"Don't take it to heart?"
Ling Xian shook his head and chuckled, "As the leader of the Hidden Pavilion, I was ambushed by a fellow House member and nobody helped me. How can you not take it to heart?"
"Ugh. I was wrong." Xiang Ninedust let out a long sigh, an apologetic look on his face.
"That's normal. How could someone who is 80% dead compare to the Xuanyuan Clan?"
Ling Xian laughed coldly. He knew very well why Xiang Ninedust hadn't acted yet, and he understood why he had made this decision.
But he would not accept it!
"Aye, Ling Xian, the Pavilion of Three Lives has wronged you. Don't worry, I'll make it up to you. "Xiang Ninedust's heart was filled with guilt.
"Compensation?"
Ling Xian teased, "I don't want any compensation. I just want to kill Xuanyuan Hong and vent my frustrations."
Upon hearing this, Xiang Ninedust fell silent, a hesitant look on his face. It was obvious that he was measuring the difference between Ling Xian and the Pavilion of Three Lives.
A moment later, he said resolutely and decisively, "Fine, you can go kill Xuanyuan Hong, but you can only do it yourself. The Three Lives Pavilion will not interfere. However, if the Xuanyuan family dares to hunt you down, the Three Lives Pavilion will block them for you. "
"Very good. It seems like the living me is more important than the Xuan Yuan Clan." Ling Xian smiled. This was what he was waiting for.
Since things had already been decided, there was no point in pursuing the matter further. Plus, Xiang Ninedust wasn't in the wrong. His position determined his thoughts.
If it had been anyone else in his shoes, they probably wouldn't have declared war on Xuanyuan Hong over a dead person.
Ling Xian understood this, but he had to avenge this.
Therefore, he mocked Ninedust and forced him to declare his stance. Right now, this headmaster had already said that the Three Lives Pavilion would block the Xuan Yuan Clan for him.
With this sentence, it was enough.
The rest was up to him.
"Back then, I made the wrong decision. Today, I don't want to make the same mistake a second time."
Xiang Ninedust's expression was solemn as he said in a low voice, "It's not because you are more important than the Xuan Yuan Clan. It's because you are the leader of the Hidden Pavilion. The Three Lives Pavilion will not allow you to be bullied!"
"I hope you mean what you said."
Ling Xian glared at Ninedust. "You don't need to worry about anything else. You just need to stop the Xuan Yuan Clan."
"What are you planning on doing? Are you going to attack the Xuan Yuan Clan?" Ninedust ignored Ling Xian's questioning look and asked with concern.
"I'm not that stupid. If the Xuan Yuan Clan can't even ignore the Three Lives Pavilion, then wouldn't I be committing suicide?"
Ling Xian said calmly, "I won't attack the Xuan Yuan Clan. I'll wait outside for Xuanyuan Hong to come out. I refuse to believe that he'll never leave the Xuan Yuan Clan."
"Alright. Don't worry and do as you please. I, Xiang Ninedust, and the Three Lives Pavilion will always stand behind you!"
Ninedust spoke in a domineering tone, his words forceful and powerful.
"Now that's more like what a headmaster should say."
Ling Xian smiled faintly, his anger towards Ninedust vanishing. It didn't matter why this person had agreed to help him block the Xuan Yuan Clan. At the very least, he had agreed.
To Ling Xian, that was enough. As for whether or not Ninedust would support him to the end, time would reveal a man's heart.
"Oh, right. You killed three Mermaid Princes and protected a city. That's a great merit."
Ninedust suddenly thought of something, then laughed. "Plus, I said I wanted to make it up to you, so I've decided to reward you with 300,000 merit points. What do you think?"
"Not bad. I have no objections."
Ling Xian faintly grinned. He had killed two princes and a few generals, which added up to more than 100,000 contribution points.
Now, Ninedust, out of guilt, was rewarding him with 300,000 merit points. This was an enormous sum of money. Naturally, Ling Xian was quite satisfied.
"Haha, alright. I'll transfer it to you right away."
Ninedust laughed heartily, then tapped his headmaster's medallion a few times with his index finger, transferring 300,000 merit points to Ling Xian.
"Thank you, Headmaster."
Ling Xian smiled in satisfaction. With 300,000 merit points, he could exchange them for quite a few treasures.
"You deserve this, and it's what the Three Lives Pavilion owes you. No need to thank me." Ninedust smiled and waved his hand.
"If that's the case, then I'll bid you farewell." Ling Xian clasped his hands towards Ninedust, then turned and left.
Then, he returned to his residence and opened the exchange interface.
His goal in going to the Sea of Demons was to earn merit points to exchange for the true blood of a Zhuyan and the ten-thousand-year fruit. Now that he had broken through to the intermediate stage of the Path Choosing Stage, he no longer needed the fruit.
However, the true blood of a Zhuyan was something he needed.
Therefore, he didn't hesitate and spent 150,000 merit points to exchange for the blood. Then, he quietly waited.
About an hour later, a disciple floated over and handed over the Real Blood of Zhuyan to him after a series of handover confirmations.
"So this is the original blood of a Zhuyan?"
Staring at the red blood inside the jade bottle, Ling Xian's eyes heated up. After he opened the bottle, his eyes were even more heated.
This was because the moment this blood appeared, it emitted an extremely powerful amount of vibrations.
It was obvious how much energy was contained within.
"With this blood, I can make my physique reach the fifth level."
