Chapter 874: Chapter 872: Painful Lesson
In the sky, a White Tiger Phantom suddenly appeared and smashed fiercely onto the sword light.
With a loud bang, the sword light transformed into bursts of brilliance.
Everyone’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Everyone from Luoxing Mountain knew the skills of the man in white robes. Even if he couldn’t defeat Xiang Tian in a single move, he shouldn’t have lost so quickly.
Yet the truth was in front of them, forcing them into shock.
However, Xiang Tian had no intention of letting him go. He leaped into the air again, altered his hand technique, and the White Tiger Suppresses the Sky Seal smashed down on the man in white robes once more!
With another loud bang, the man in white robes fell heavily to his knees.
His face was unspeakably ghastly.
The disciples of Luoxing Mountain quickly ran to his side and surrounded him.
A heated discussion ensued.
"How is Senior Brother?"
"Damn, didn’t expect this guy to hit so hard?"
"No way, I’m going to find the Domain Master and demand punishment for this bastard..."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
After all, since the man in white robes couldn’t defeat Xiang Tian, they couldn’t do anything either.
However, Xiang Tian coldly looked at them and then harshly ordered, "Get out of my way before I lose my temper."
"My only target is your Senior Brother. Once he’s dead, I’ll spare you. Otherwise, you’ll all accompany your Senior Brother to the grave today!"
Upon hearing this, everyone’s complexion turned grim.
It was the first time they had been threatened in Luoxing Mountain.
The man in white robes had never suffered such humiliation.
He crawled up from the ground with difficulty, glanced coldly at Xiang Tian, and grit his teeth, saying, "Everyone, step back. I really want to see if this guy has what it takes to kill me?"
As he spoke, the man in white robes walked up to Xiang Tian.
He looked at Xiang Tian disdainfully and slowly said, "I hope I don’t need to introduce myself again?"
"You should know whose disciple I am, and if you dare attack me, my Teacher won’t spare you."
"When the time comes..."
"No matter who your Brother is, he’ll abandon you, do you believe that?"
Ha...
Hearing this, Xiang Tian shook his head disdainfully.
In that instant, Luo Xue seemed to see Wang Zhan’s shadow in him.
Xiang Tian slowly raised his hand, then struck the man in white robes on the forehead.
In the next moment, the man in white robes fell to his knees, lifeless.
He was clearly dead.
The disciples of Luoxing Mountain exclaimed in shock.
"This guy actually killed Senior Brother?"
"Quick! Inform the Domain Master immediately!"
"This damned bastard cannot be spared today!"
Everyone quickly ran off into the distance.
They were like they feared ending up like the man in white robes if they didn’t escape quickly...
Xiang Tian chuckled coldly.
"Is this all the disciples of Luoxing Mountain are capable of?"
"Shouting so defiantly earlier, but now fleeing in panic? Truly contemptible..."
"Who would have thought, such disgraceful behavior."
Xuan Yu hurried over to him, tugged at his arm, and spoke in a low voice, "Since we’ve won, let’s not waste more words, and as you’ve already made a misstep, we should go find Dong Tianlei first."
"Where did I go wrong?"
Xiang Tian nonchalantly said, "I think you heard our conversation?"
"I didn’t intend to trouble him, but he was aggressive. Since we were in a duel, what does it matter if I accidentally killed him?"
This...
Xuan Yu shook his head and sighed, "Do you really think everyone present is blind? You clearly had the upper hand, but you still killed him, proving it was intentional. It has nothing to do with the duel."
"So, no matter where we go, we definitely can’t justify this."
Xiang Tian chuckled indifferently, "I think you should understand, in duels, injuries and fatalities are inevitable. Moreover, since he didn’t concede, I naturally need to respect him, fighting until the very last moment is the only way to show him respect, understand?"
Beside him, Xuan Yu could only shake his head helplessly.
This was obviously just sophistry.
Besides, what sense is there in dueling where one takes another’s life?
Most importantly, they were now living under someone else’s roof, also living within Luoxing Mountain. Not to mention future grudges with others, the present issues couldn’t be easily resolved.
This man in white robes is a beloved disciple of Dong Tianlei. Thinking of these things, Xuan Yu even started to feel a headache coming on.
Meanwhile, Luo Xue was much calmer than Xiang Tian. After glancing at Xuan Yu beside him, he asked, "So what do you think we should do next? Should we leave here first, or stay and wait for Brother Wang?"
"How can we leave?"
Xiang Tian, arms crossed, said, "Since Brother Wang asked us to stay here, we naturally need to wait for him, otherwise, what do we do if he comes out and doesn’t see us?"
"Wouldn’t that make Brother Wang worried for nothing?"
Hearing this, Xuan Yu shook his head and then furrowed his brow and said, "I actually think we should leave Luoxing Mountain first, only this way perhaps can we find some hope for survival. After all, we have already become enemies with the people of Luoxing Mountain, and to avoid unforeseen events, we surely need to leave first."
"But, there are still so many people outside hunting us."
Luo Xue’s face turned much more somber, she gritted her teeth and said, "If we are discovered by people from the Skyfire Mountain or the Profound Ice Pavilion, neither of those factions will easily let us off. By that time, the only road before us is to keep running..."
"But in doing so, even we don’t know where we might end up, then how could Brother Wang possibly find us?"
"And most importantly, what if when Brother Wang comes out, Dong Tianlei and others ambush him?"
For a moment, they were clearly caught in a dilemma.
Xiang Tian slightly frowned, clenching his fist, and said through gritted teeth, "Why even bother thinking about these things?"
"Why don’t I just go and find Dong Tianlei myself now?"
"After all, I can explain everything clearly, and it wasn’t us causing trouble on purpose. Besides, it was that guy who wanted a duel with us. He’s dead and that’s that, no one else to blame."
Xuan Yu said nothing.
He was also pondering over a perfect solution.
But where is there such an easy solution?
As time ticked by, voices emerged from the distance.
In an instant, everyone was already by Xiang Tian’s side.
After exchanging glances, a path was made, revealing an elderly man with white hair slowly walking out from behind.
After casting a glance at Xiang Tian, the old man opened his mouth coldly, "Is this the junior who attacked the people of Luoxing Mountain and insulted us?"
"Yes."
A disciple in the crowd said in a deep voice, "I didn’t expect this damn bastard to be so hateful, claiming it’s a duel, yet doing such heinous things."
"Elder, since the Domain Lord is not here, should you not stand out and uphold justice for us."
"We hope, you can take action to kill this arrogant and ignorant kid."
For a moment, everyone in Luoxing Mountain chimed in agreement.
Indeed, they were highly united.
Xiang Tian slightly squinted his eyes, glanced at the old man, then casually said, "Old man, I’d advise you not to meddle in others’ affairs. We already said, we are just here for a duel, no one meant to trouble anyone, or had any intentions to kill."
"But that guy was aggressive, hardly my fault, is it?"
"Moreover, if he dared to come out to duel others without the skills, isn’t that his fault?"
Hearing these words, the old man’s expression changed, then stated word by word, "So, you think the people of Luoxing Mountain are no match for you, am I right?"
"Or are you saying, the people of Luoxing Mountain aren’t even worth looking at?"
Xiang Tian shrugged, with no hint of fear on his face, then said casually, "I never intended to look down on Luoxing Mountain. On the contrary, I’m very grateful to your Domain Lord, if he hadn’t helped us, we wouldn’t be here, probably our lives would have been lost by now."
"But even so, should you all be so aggressive?"
"Not to mention, your people insulted Xuan Yu first, then insulted us. Is this how Luoxing Mountain treats guests?"
Heh...
The old man took a step closer to Xiang Tian, "So, you’re lecturing me, is that it?"
Evidently, an unreasonable fellow.
Luo Xue and Xuan Yu instinctively moved to Xiang Tian’s side.
Xiang Tian waved them back with a faint smile on his lips, then said, "Old man, I didn’t mean to lecture you, perhaps you’ve misunderstood me?"
"I’d advise you to value peace, making a big fuss benefits no one."
"Enough, I won’t waste time chatting here, I need to get back and rest."
"If the Domain Lord wants to know the ins and outs of this matter, let him come find me."
"Farewell!"
