"You, you, you, you really have a big mouth, big mouth!"
Saint Venerable Huo Ying was trembling with rage at Qin Xiao's words.
He was an Ancient Saint. How high and mighty was he?
Everyone beneath Ancient Sage was nothing more than an ant. This was not an empty statement.
In terms of strength, Qin Xiao was no more than an ant in front of Saint Venerable Huo Ying.
However, this' ant 'dared to talk back to him without giving him any face, making it difficult for him to step down.
His Huo Clan's disciples were killed, his two grandsons were killed, and he was mocked by Qin Xiao. How could he not be angry?
Everyone could clearly feel Saint Venerable Huo Ying's anger. Many people couldn't help but tremble and break out in cold sweat for Qin Xiao.
Among the crowd, Baichuan Fusu and Young Master Yu heard the news and came to find Fu Linglong.
Baichuan Fusu was a smart person. Naturally, he knew that Fu Linglong had a part to play in this matter.
"Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?"
Fu Linglong looked aggrieved and said helplessly, "Brother Baichuan, you can't blame me for this. I promised Brother Qin Xiao. Besides, I was just cooperating with him. I didn't do anything. Brother Qin Xiao insisted on doing this. What can I do?"
"You know Brother Qin Xiao's temper. Once he decides on something, no one can stop him."
"Furthermore … Most importantly, I do feel that Brother Qin Xiao is right. This time, the Huo Clan's brothers have gone too far. "
"If we don't teach them a lesson, I'm afraid there will be endless trouble in the future."
Baichuan Fusu was a little speechless. "You still think he's right? Nonsense, this is nonsense. "
"Don't you know that this will bring him a lot of trouble? Killing the Huo Clan's brothers is the same as offending the Huo Clan.
Killing the Huo Clan's brothers in public in Wind Cloud City is the same as slapping the Huo Clan's face in front of everyone. The Huo Corporation's dignity has been trampled on. How can the Huo Corporation take this lying down? "
"Qin Xiao is putting himself in danger by doing this."
Fu Linglong said seriously, "Brother Baichuan, don't worry. I've also thought about this problem and talked to Qin Xiao about it."
"Since Qin Xiao has decided to do it, I think he must be confident. He must have thought about all the situations before he did it."
"So, I think we should trust Qin Xiao."
"That's right. She will definitely offend the Huo Corporation, but will the Huo Corporation dare to do anything to Qin Xiao?"
"At the very least, the Huo Corporation wouldn't dare to kill Qin Xiao, right?"
"Moreover, I feel that Brother Qin Xiao should know his limits and be able to control himself. I believe that he will be able to handle this matter well."
Young Master Yu, who had been silent all this while, also said, "That's right, Big Brother. Now that things have come to this, it's useless for us to say anything more. Also, we can't help much. We can only trust Qin Xiao to handle this."
"Since he has decided to do it, he must have thought about everything. We just have to wait here patiently and watch."
Baichuan Fusu shook his head helplessly and sighed. Now that things had come to this, he really had no other choice.
With his little bit of strength, he was far from qualified to participate in this level of competition.
So now, he could only wait patiently and watch the situation develop.
Hopefully, Qin Xiao could handle it well.
But in his heart, he did believe that Qin Xiao could handle it well. Qin Xiao had always been very steady and never fought a battle that he wasn't confident in.
This matter seemed impulsive and reckless, with no regard for the consequences. It was a crazy move.
But thinking about it carefully, Qin Xiao's biggest guarantee was his identity as a student of the Sacred Institute.
With this identity, as long as Qin Xiao didn't cross the line, would the Huo family really dare to kill him?
He believed that the Huo family wouldn't have the guts to kill a student of the Sacred Institute. If the Sacred Institute were to blame them, how could the Huo family bear the consequences?
With this final guarantee, they could still bear the consequences.
This worry was actually shared by many of the onlookers.
Many people respected Qin Xiao and worshipped Qin Xiao. Naturally, they didn't want anything to happen to Qin Xiao. While they were sweating, they also prayed that Qin Xiao would be safe.
"Qin Xiao — —"
"Do you really think that you can do whatever you want as a student of the Sacred Institute? Do you really think that you can be arrogant and do whatever you want?"
"Do you really think that the Huo family will only dare to be angry and not do anything to you for killing a member of the Huo family?"
"Do you really think that I won't dare to do anything to you for what happened today?"
"Qin Xiao, you think too highly of your status, don't you? No matter how high your status is, no matter how high your status is, it's only because the Sacred Institute has bestowed it on you. "
"But no matter what, you're just a fourth-step Heavenly Venerate. In my eyes, you're just a slightly stronger ant."
"Do you really think that an ant like you can go against me? Don't you think that you're being too naive? "
"Of course, I won't kill you so easily. But even if I don't kill you, I have thousands of ways to punish you. "
"You're so bold and presumptuous. If I don't punish you properly, do you really think that the Huo family's prestige is something that a brat like Qin Xiao can easily touch?"
"The Sacred Institute is an institute of justice. It's an institute under the imperial splendor of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. It's a place where justice is taught and reason is taught. It's not a place where you can casually throw your banner around. If you want to use your status as a student of the Sacred Institute to pressure the Huo family, I can only say that you're too naive. "
Instead of getting angry, Qin Xiao laughed. He looked at Huo Ying and said, "Your senior Huo Ying already said that you don't throw your banner around. I killed Huo Li and Huo Rong with my own strength. Now that you've come out to deal with me, aren't you just standing up for Huo Li and Huo Rong?"
"Then can it be understood that Huo Li and Huo Rong are using your Huo family's or your banner, Huo Ying's?"
"If everyone isn't using their banner, then it's a fair fight. It's a battle of strength. The two of them weren't as skilled as me and died in my hands. Who can they blame? Isn't it their fault that they weren't strong enough? "
"So, Saint Huo Ying, don't you think it's a little easy for you to say these words?"
"I, Qin Xiao, come from a humble background. I don't have any background. Do you think that I, Qin Xiao, should be bullied and humiliated by the Huo family's disciples?"
"Since you said that the Sacred Institute is where the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors' Imperial Splendor resides, and that it's a place where you talk about principles and principles, then I, Qin Xiao, will talk about principles with you."
"I know that there's no absolute fairness in this world, but I believe that there's fairness in the Great Dao. No matter who it is, if they do something wrong, they should pay the price. "
"Just because the Huo family's disciples did something wrong doesn't mean that they don't have to pay the price."
"If the Huo family protects their disciples, then I, Qin Xiao, can only kill my enemies with my own hands and demand an explanation from them."
"They provoked me and crossed my bottom line. What's wrong with me killing them?"
"If you, Huo Ying, want to make trouble for me, you're just using your own strength."
"Yes, that's right. You're a Sacred Institute, a senior Sacred Institute. In front of Senior Huo Ying, I, Qin Xiao, am just a slightly stronger ant. "
"But does an ant have no dignity? Can't an ant seek justice for himself? Can't an ant kill someone? "
"The principles under the heavens aren't just up to you, Huo Ying, to decide, right?"
Qin Xiao's rebuttal made many people want to clap their hands and cheer.
Well said. What he said was very, very true.
Yes, does an ant have no dignity?
Even ants had their own dignity.
It's just that some people don't have status, background, or strength, so they're often bullied by others.
They didn't dare to be angry or say anything, but it didn't mean that they wouldn't remember such hatred in their hearts.
Huo Ying's expression was extremely ugly. He stared at Qin Xiao gloomily and said in a deep voice, "Qin Xiao, no matter how eloquent you are, you can't escape from today's matter."
"According to what you've said, no matter who did something wrong, they have to pay the price."
"Now that you, Qin Xiao, have killed two outstanding youths of the Huo Clan in front of everyone, shouldn't you pay the price too?"
Qin Xiao had already expected today's matter. It was indeed very difficult to get off the stage unscathed.
Although he was a student of the Sacred Institute, it didn't mean that he could control everything.
The Huo Clan was an ancient and powerful clan, and it wasn't easy to provoke them.
If it was just Qin Xiao alone, he could be completely fearless and not worry about anything.
However, Qin Xiao couldn't be so stubborn to the end.
There was still the Free Cities, Baichuan, Fu Su, and the others, and even the big brother of the Desolate Land.
If the Huo Clan really went crazy, Qin Xiao wouldn't be able to protect them with his current strength.
Therefore, Qin Xiao had no choice but to bear with it for the time being.
However, if the Huo Clan wanted to go overboard, Qin Xiao would definitely not agree to it.
Qin Xiao had already expected all of this and had thought it through long ago.
Saint Huo Ying's words were actually hinting to Qin Xiao to give him a way out. Otherwise, why would he say so much? He would have already taken action.
However, Saint Huo Ying didn't take action. Instead, he said that the Huo Clan wouldn't let Qin Xiao off. What he meant was that he wanted an explanation to give the Huo Clan a way out.
If they wanted a way out, he would just give them a way out.
"Then, Saint Huo Ying, what price do you think I, Qin Xiao, should pay?" Qin Xiao replied.
Saint Huo Ying looked at Qin Xiao with a deep gaze. If it wasn't for Qin Xiao's identity, he would have killed Qin Xiao on the spot.
However, he couldn't kill Qin Xiao, so he could only take a step back.
"I won't delve into the details of this matter. You, Qin Xiao, have killed two members of the Huo Clan. Naturally, I can't let it go just like that."
"I reckon that you, Qin Xiao, are not an enemy of the Huo Clan and it's just a fight between you young people. Therefore, I can let you off the hook."
"I'll only use 10% of my strength to attack you. You can take it with your full strength. The extent of your injuries will depend on your strength."
"You can object to such a punishment?"
Hearing Saint Sovereign Huo Ying's words, many people sucked in a breath of cold air. They were worried for Qin Xiao.
Saint Huo Ying was a very powerful Ancient Saint. Even if he used 10% of his strength, it was still terrifyingly powerful. How could Qin Xiao possibly take it?
10% of his strength was enough to kill Qin Xiao, wasn't it?
How was this a punishment? He was simply trying to kill Qin Xiao.
Fu Linglong was getting a little anxious as well. He almost rushed into the crowd and told Qin Xiao not to accept it.
Many people were shaking their heads at Qin Xiao desperately, indicating that Qin Xiao shouldn't accept it. He mustn't accept it.
If he were to accept such a condition, his life would be in danger.
Even if Supremacy Huo Ying had a good grasp of the situation and didn't really kill Qin Xiao, that move of his would most likely have damaged his vitality.
