"You didn't lose at all! Why don't you find the Thousand Monster Court and explain the situation to them? Do you know that you are a coward?! Who are you doing this to? Are you worthy of Xiaoqing? "
Ye Wentian, who was standing outside the door, rushed in, throwing a punch on the wall. Although he wasn't in the good rankings, his brother-in-law Lin Xiao entered the top ten.
He had originally come with a great deal of spiritual medicines to replenish Lin Xiao's spirit essence, but who knew that he would hear the latter silently leave the room.
As Ye Wentian heard these words, he was enraged. Not only was this a matter of honor, but he also felt that it wasn't worth it for Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao was able to make it into the top 10. No one knew what he had experienced, but it could be imagined just how much hardship he had experienced. Now, however, he had sadly left the stage.
Did he lose? No! If it weren't for the fact that the Demon Court saved the Crown Prince San Qi, the latter would have long been burnt to ashes. Lin Xiao was wronged and many people felt that he was not worth it. Even Long Dan Yuan wanted to stand up for Lin Xiao.
However, the power of the Thousand Monster Court was simply too great, even the Dragon clan couldn't do anything about it.
Although the Thousand Monster Court was controlled by the dragon clan, but it was not the only master. What was ten thousand demons? In this world, there were countless demons, so no matter how strong the dragons were, they couldn't defeat the whole world.
At this moment, Ye Wentian arrived in front of Lin Xiao. Just as he was about to say something, Lin Xiao interjected and interrupted him.
"The winner and loser of this match is decided by the Thousand Goblins Court, it has already become a foregone conclusion, if you change it again, doesn't that mean the Thousand Goblins Court is slapping itself in the face? No matter how strong I am, I will only lose if I let Crown Prince San Qi win. "
Lin Xiao's voice was old and powerless, like an old man late in life, "You still don't understand? No one in the Thousand Monster Court dares to disobey. "
No one in the Thousand Monster Court dared to disobey.
Every word thundered like a thunderclap, Ye Wentian's body stiffened as he sat down on the bed. What Lin Xiao said was right. The Thousand Demonic Court had already decided that he had lost, who would dare to let him win?
"But that's not enough to leave. There are rewards in the top ten and you can go to the Celestial Lake Pool to cultivate. How could you miss this opportunity?"
Ye Wentian's tone was helpless and powerless, as he forced a smile onto his face towards Lin Xiao. He might even be able to heal the latter with the Celestial Lake Pool, even if this was just wishful thinking.
"Staying here will only bring disaster, not to mention whether the Thousand Goblins Palace will take any actions, just talking about the Martial Pass and targeting me everywhere, I think Wu Ling must have said something. Rather than facing danger, I might as well go back and hand the Ice Spirit Flame to Xiao Qi, I promised her that."
As Lin Xiao finished speaking, he closed his eyes. It was just a short conversation, but he was already a bit tired. In order to safely return to the Dragon City, he needed to rest.
Seeing this, Ye Wentian did not say anything more. He left the Spirit Medicines behind and quietly left. Once again, only Shi Que and Lin Xiao were left in the room.
At this time, Lin Xiao's state of mind was unknown, so no one could truly experience it.
Did he hate the Thousand Monster Court? Of course he hated it. If it wasn't for the Thousand Monster Court, how could he have become like this? But the Thousand Monster Court was too strong, so strong that he felt fear at first glance and couldn't muster up the desire to resist.
Lin Xiao's heart was filled with sorrow. At this moment, his mind was unusually clear and his spiritual sense had reached an unprecedented level.
It was also at this moment that he felt a streak of light gazing at him from afar.
Who was it!?
Lin Xiao wanted to follow the clues and investigate, but the other party cut off his clues without hesitation. It could be said that he was extremely decisive, and would rather have his soul devour him than let him find any clues.
This kind of enemy was truly terrifying.
At the same time, in the Thousand Monster Court, a middle-aged man quickly retracted his gaze and coughed a few times.
"Isn't this Big Brother Wu Guan? What's going on, you're sneaking a peek at that girl bathing again? "
The middle-aged man was none other than Wu Guan, Wu Ling's great-grandfather. He snorted coldly at the person who had just arrived and said, "July, just take care of yourself."
The man who had been called up to July laughed heartily at these words and paid no further attention to these trivial matters. Instead, he said, "The higher-ups told you to bring Wu Ling over. It's said that because of that dragon scale, Wu Ling and Lin Xiao seemed to have met before in the Demon Burying Valley, so the higher-ups wanted to confirm something with Wu Ling."
When Wu Guan heard this, his brows furrowed and his eyes rolled. He nodded his head, said "I know," and turned around to leave.
As night fell, this night in Mountain Phoenix City, it was very quiet and there were very few figures. The original residents of the city seemed to have sensed something and shut their doors tightly.
"Shi Que, there's no need to wait for tomorrow. I'll leave tonight. Maybe I won't be able to leave tomorrow."
Lin Xiao lay on his bed, his mind filled with thoughts. He sighed and turned his head to look at the dark night sky through the window.
Shi Que nodded and tied Lin Xiao to his back. The latter was now as thin as a twig and did not give him any pressure. He then covered Lin Xiao with a black cloth and left the guest room.
Under the night sky, there was a shadow jumping between the rooms. However, this shadow's speed was getting faster and faster because he had already discovered that there were still many people moving stealthily in the dark.
He was targeted the moment he stepped out of the door?
This was not good news for Lin Xiao and Shi Que, they probably wouldn't even know how they died if they left the city.
Then we can only turn back the way we came... While Shi Que was deep in thought, he suddenly thought of something. His figure stopped moving, and he rushed in another direction.
A few groups of people in the dark hesitantly followed him.
As they got closer and closer to Shi Que, the people in the dark realized that the purpose of Shi Que was actually the Drunken Immortal Tavern. The Drunken Immortal Tavern was the most famous restaurant in the Mountain Phoenix City and the guests staying there were all extraordinary people. The eight demons lived inside.
"Boss, don't tell me they're going to enter Drunken Immortal Tavern?"
Before the people in the dark could speak, Shi Que had already entered the Intoxicated Immortal Restaurant.
The face of the person in the shadows turned ashen as he looked at the Drunken Immortal Tavern and said, "Wait, I don't believe that they won't come out."
At this moment, the singing and dancing of Drunken Immortal Tavern had reached a level of perfection. Shi Que was not enchanted by these girls as he quickly went to the Sky Room on the fifth floor.
The 'Heavenly' door opened and Shi Que entered. There was already a person in the room making tea and waiting for him. It was one of the eight demons, 'Desolate'.
Shi Que heaved a sigh of relief as he saw this. He then closed the door to his room and sat down to rest.
"Will there be any problems along the way?" As he spoke, he pushed a cup of tea over. Shi Que took it and drank it all in one gulp, wiped his lips, and nodded.
"No problem, the people in the dark should have been attracted by me. According to what you said, I was on my way to the city gate."
After hearing what Shi Que said, he nodded his head. The latter placed the person on his back on the bed and took off the black cloth. He was actually a puppet that was the same size as Lin Xiao!
"Even though the Intoxicated Immortal Restaurant is safe, those who cause trouble by making a move here will depend on him."
It was unknown when Barren walked to the window, but there were no stars in the night sky outside and the moon was blocked by dark clouds. The entire Mountain Phoenix City was shrouded in darkness.
