Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 980: Chapter 980: Insolent and Shameless

At this moment, all the martial artists from Phoenix God College looking at Ling Xiao were filled with anger and embarrassment.

The anger stemmed from Ling Xiao’s slaying of the Blood Skeleton right in front of them.

The embarrassment also came from Ling Xiao defeating a stronger opponent while in front of them, ultimately resisting all interference and destroying the Blood Skeleton.

A top twenty expert from Phoenix God College was so easily annihilated by a despicable human from the Heavenly Dragon Continent.

They found it hard to accept in their hearts.

However, Ling Xiao didn’t care about their reactions.

At this time, in Ling Xiao’s eyes, there was only Si Kong Zun, the Lightning Demon King!

This vermin had destroyed his homeland and even pursued him to the Divine Phoenix Continent; had his body not been strong enough today, that one attack could have scattered his soul.

He had always insisted on comprehensive cultivation of martial arts, physique, and soul; it seemed he had made the right choice.

”You little rat, what did you just say?”

Si Kong Zun was the Lightning Demon King!

He was once one of the Nine Great Demon Kings of the True Demon Empire that nearly unified the Mysterious World.

But his plans for the Heavenly Dragon Continent ultimately failed because of Ling Xiao.

Having come to the Divine Phoenix Continent, his identity was still exposed because of Ling Xiao, leading to many plans not going smoothly.

In his eyes, Ling Xiao was a person that must be killed.

He didn’t think there was anything wrong with what he had just done.

What was wrong with being shameless?

What was wrong with having no face?

I can do it, but you absolutely cannot say it!

”I said you’re a despicable and shameless old dog!”

Ling Xiao enunciated every word loudly in front of everyone.

”You insolent bastard, I’ll kill you!”

Si Kong Zun’s face turned green with rage as he furiously wanted to take action.

Phoenix God College had already had a Vice President shouted down by Ling Xiao; if he did not dare to act against Ling Xiao, it would undoubtedly add further shame to Phoenix God College.

”Hmph, Lightning Demon King, do you really think it’s still the Mysterious World of tens of thousands of years ago? Your True Demon Empire is no longer as powerful as it once was. As long as I’m here, don’t even think about hurting him!”

Feng Qingyan let out a cold snort and directly moved beside Ling Xiao, protecting him.

He felt immense guilt for not protecting Ling Xiao earlier, and from here on, he would rather use his own aged life to protect the descendant of his benefactor.

”Hehe, why get heated, both of you? You are pillars of our Phoenix God Empire. Regardless of who gets hurt, I’m afraid the happiest will be the Black Crow Empire. Besides, this duel is already over; there’s no need to keep arguing over a trivial matter.”

If anyone else had said this, they might have been cursed to death.

But these words coming from Feng Yingshan, no one dared to say anything.

He wanted to smooth things over, not wanting the situation to further deteriorate.

Phoenix God College and Qingxu College, although always at odds, had never engaged in a direct confrontation.

After all, these were the two best colleges of the Phoenix God Empire, and things would really fall apart if a fight broke out between them.

From his position, this sort of smoothing over seemed not incorrect.

However, he didn’t condemn Si Kong Zun for interfering with the duel. Although it was the best choice for him, he didn’t ask for Ling Xiao’s opinion.

This shows that in his eyes, Ling Xiao was still an insignificant figure, even if he was the descendant of a benefactor.

Help if possible, but if not, then let it be.

Such is the Hidden Mountain Reserve Monarch of the Royal Family, a qualified politician indeed, for his eyes hold no personal sentiments.

But he didn’t know that because of this, he would lose Ling Xiao’s respect and admiration for him.

Feng Qingyan didn’t want to make a big fuss about it either, of course, his concerns were different from those of Feng Yingshan.

He was just worried that if the matter blew up, he might not be strong enough to protect Ling Xiao on his own, so the best outcome would be for the duel to simply end here.

After all, the result had already been determined, so why bother pursuing Si Kong Zun for the crime of interference?

And even if he were to be pursued, who could actually hold Si Kong Zun accountable?

Even Feng Yingshan was unable to do that, after all, Si Kong Zun was from Fengming Qishan.

”Enough, I’ll listen to the Hidden Mountain Reserve Monarch,” Feng Qingyan sighed. ”We can overlook Si Kong Zun’s interference in the duel, as if the injury to Ling Xiao never happened.”

His power ultimately was not strong enough to completely suppress Phoenix God College.

Otherwise, given his personality, he would not be so submissive.

Ling Xiao sighed, knowing that Feng Qingyan was looking out for his best interest, naturally he wouldn’t refute Feng Qingyan out of ingratitude.

Although he wasn’t happy about it, he said nothing, which was tantamount to accepting Feng Qingyan’s opinion.

The other onlookers also felt that this was for the best.

However, just at that moment, Si Kong Zun sneered, ”You accuse me of a sneak attack without any evidence, yet everyone witnessed Ling Xiao killing a disciple of our Phoenix God College. You don’t want to pursue responsibility?

I want to pursue it! Today, Ling Xiao must be handed over to Phoenix God College for handling!”

His attitude suddenly became aggressive.

Feng Yingshan also frowned slightly.

He turned his head and caught a glimpse of a figure flashing past at the edge of the square.

”Fengming Qishan?”

No wonder, Si Kong Zun, with the backing of Fengming Qishan, naturally wouldn’t give even him face.

”Si Kong Zun, how shameless can you be? Whether you ambushed Ling Xiao or not, you know best in your own heart,” Feng Qingyan fired back, incensed. ”As for Ling Xiao killing Blood Skeleton, the two of them had signed a life-and-death contract. What gives you the right to hold Ling Xiao accountable?”

Feng Qingyan’s temper flared.

He was prepared to step back and let things go, to swallow a bitter pill.

But who would expect the other party not only to be ungrateful but to also twist the truth and bite back? How could he possibly bear that?

”Ha ha ha ha, a life-and-death contract?”

Si Kong Zun laughed heartily: ”Was that life-and-death contract approved by our Phoenix God College? Did it have the signature of the president or vice president, or even of a teacher?”

Feng Qingyan was momentarily stunned, could people really be so shameless?

”Not signed, right?”

Si Kong Zun continued: ”Since there was no signature, it indicates that their life-and-death duel never received the approval of our Phoenix God College. Blood Skeleton was a student of our college, his life belonged to us, now that Ling Xiao has killed him, shouldn’t we pursue responsibility?”

”What the fuck, that’s possible?”

The onlookers were dumbstruck too.

Si Kong Zun’s level of absurdity was truly unparalleled.

If you say that a life-and-death duel cannot take place without a signature, then why did you two vice presidents not intervene when you were present?

Isn’t that an implicit agreement?

Oh, now that Blood Skeleton is dead, you say the life-and-death contract is invalid?

What if Ling Xiao had died? You’d certainly say he deserved it, right?

Such shameless reasoning was truly unparalleled.

Actually, everyone now understood that Si Kong Zun had only one reason for doing this: he was determined to see Ling Xiao dead.

Otherwise, where would the Phoenix God College’s face go?
