C1939 No More Suspense
Ye Lingtian cursed under his breath. With his current Cultivation Level, it was impossible for him to stop Ximen Wuji.
An afterimage flashed in front of Zheng Banshan's eyes. He knew that Ximen Wuji had made his move.
Thus, he gritted his teeth and stabbed at the afterimage that was flying towards him.
"Die!"
The indigo light bloomed in the air like a rainbow after a rain.
This strike was Zheng Banshan's strongest attack.
Swish!
The moment the rainbow bloomed, it streaked across Ximen Wuji's face, the sharp sword qi slashing his face.
Pfft!
Zheng Banshan was cut into two halves.
Ximen Wuji's attack was too fast, so fast that Zheng Dongfang and the rest didn't even have time to react.
Ximen Wuji's attack was too vicious. Even if he got injured, he still wanted to cut Wu Junliang on the spot.
They stared blankly at Zheng Banshan who was split into two halves on the ground, looked at Ximen Wuji whose blood was dripping down his face, held onto the Longsword in his hands tightly, suppressing his resentment and maintaining his silence.
To kill the second clan elder of the Zheng Family in such a manner, was equivalent to giving them a ruthless slap on the face.
According to the Eastern Continent's rules, they should all rush forward to encircle and annihilate Ximen Wuji.
But they also knew that once they attacked Ximen Wuji, they would completely offend Ye Lingtian, and would become enemies with Wanyan Family.
Let's not talk about Ye Lingtian's capabilities for now, just his Wanyan Family was enough to cause a stir.
A cold wind blew, bringing a slight chill to the hearts of the onlookers.
When Zheng Banshan fell on the ground, his eyes were filled with anger and despair.
He saw the future of Zheng Family, and from then on, the position of Zheng Family would no longer exist in the aristocratic families.
Ximen Wuji looked at Zheng Banshan's corpse, walked up to Ye Lingtian and knelt down on one knee, with both hands holding the Longsword that killed Zheng Banshan: "Master, this subordinate has taken the initiative, please grant a punishment!"
Ye Lingtian looked at the Longsword that was covered in blood, then looked at the scar on Ximen Wuji's face, his expression gloomy but he did not say a word.
With Ximen Wuji's Cultivation Level, beheading Zheng Banshan was not a problem at all. The reason for this was just so that he could quickly cut down the chaotic situation and avoid any future troubles.
Ye Lingtian was a Newcomer of the Immortal Arts world, but that didn't mean he didn't know how cruel the Immortal Arts world was.
This was a world that was even more ruthless than the battlefield.
Maybe Zheng Xueyu had a soft heart, maybe Wanyan Yue was cute and cute, or maybe Ximen Wuji was really kind and righteous.
However, their very existence could not change the very essence of the Immortal Arts.
Every opponent in a disadvantageous position was a frozen snake lying on the edge of a field. Putting him in his arms was irresponsible for his life.
Ximen Wuji used his actions to tell Ye Lingtian that any little bit of kindness would put him in danger.
Blame Ximen Wuji? Did Ye Lingtian have a reason to blame Ximen Wuji?
Without waiting for Ye Lingtian to speak, Zheng Xueyu took Ximen Wuji's Longsword and helped him up. She squeezed out a sad smile on his face.
"What punishment? Zheng Banshan wanted to kill Ye Lingtian, so I must think of the price he has to pay for this."
"I have forgiven him once, but I can't continue forgiving him for unlimited amounts of time."
When Ximen Wuji heard Zheng Xueyu's words, he said gratefully, "Thank you, First Miss."
Zheng Xueyu brushed her long hair and looked down at the blood at her feet. She shook her head lightly. "Why are you thanking me? There's no need to thank me. It's fine between us."
Ye Lingtian looked at Zheng Xueyu and whispered, "First Miss, I …"
"You what?" Zheng Xueyu turned around and smiled sweetly at Ye Lingtian, "You think Zheng Banshan shouldn't be killed?"
"Do you want me to repeat what I just said?" Now that the Zheng Family has disappeared, there is nothing left between me and you at all. "
Ye Lingtian's body trembled. He grabbed Zheng Xueyu and asked, "What nonsense are you spouting?"
Zheng Xueyu pressed Ye Lingtian's hand, quietly looked at the man in front of her and slowly said, "I'm not spouting nonsense. The Yellow Rank Divine Cultivator's main hall, your identity has long changed."
"That day, Life And Death Arena, Elder Liao said it very clearly. You are Wanyan Family's live-in son-in-law. To be specific, you are Wanyan Family's person."
"What virtue and ability does Zheng Family have to dare to have you stay in the Zheng Family Main Hall?"
Ye Lingtian grabbed onto Zheng Xueyu's arm and said sternly: "I said that as long as you are in Zheng Family, I will be in Zheng Family, not to mention us …"
Zheng Xueyu shook off Ye Lingtian and said expressionlessly: "Because of you, hasn't Zheng Family suffered enough humiliation?"
"Life And Death Arena, where is your face in Zheng Family?"
"Today, Ximen Wuji dragged Zheng Xiaoxiao's corpse to our doorsteps to start a massacre. In the future, how will Zheng Family be able to establish a foothold in the Eastern Continent?"
Ye Lingtian clenched his fists and looked around. He opened his mouth wanting to say something, but found that he had nothing to say.
Seeing Lili like this, Zheng Dongfang walked forward a few steps and said with a smile, "Sofia, don't say things like that."
"From the information we have so far, Zheng Banshan's death is not to be regretted."
Zheng Xueyu's tears finally flowed down. She pointed at the cold corpse on the snow and said with a trembling voice, "No matter how much Zheng Xiaoxiao and Zheng Banshan die, these words cannot be spat out by your Patriarch!"
"No matter what, they are still people of Zheng Family. Their bodies are still bleeding from Zheng Family!"
Zheng Dongfang didn't expect Zheng Xueyu to have such an attitude. He looked at Ye Lingtian, who had an ugly expression on his face, and stood on the spot awkwardly.
"The Zheng Family Brothers on the ground, are their deaths worthy of regret?"
Zheng Xueyu bellowed at the Zheng Family Elder, "They are our brothers, they are the hope of Zheng Family!"
The sound of a pin dropping could be heard in the vast courtyard.
Zheng Xueyu turned around and looked at Ye Lingtian as she took a deep breath.
"Zheng Family and your grace, you shall pay them back."
"You will also have the debt that the Zheng Family owes you."
"It should be over by now, right?"
Ye Lingtian turned his head to look around and nodded, "It's indeed settled."
"Since the two of us are settled, then our fates will end as well."
As Zheng Xueyu said this, she bowed deeply towards Ye Lingtian, gritted her teeth, and said, "Zheng Xueyu, on behalf of Zheng Family, I, Xie Young Master Ye, am magnanimous!"
Zheng Dongfang really wanted to pull Zheng Xueyu over and give her two tight slaps.
This retard, how come he was exactly the same as her father.
Don't tell me you don't know how Zheng Family moves towards glory?
What good would it do you to kick Ye Lingtian out? What benefits does it have to the Zheng Family?
Even though Ximen Wuji had killed so many people, but Zheng Banshan and Zheng Xiaoxiao were already dead.
Don't tell me you don't know that Zheng Family is already on the verge of collapse?
Ye Lingtian stared at Zheng Xueyu for a long time before saying with a trembling voice, "First Miss, I didn't hear what you just said."
"Since you didn't hear me, then I'll say it again."
"Ye Lingtian, please leave the Zheng Family now. From today onwards, we will break off all ties!"
Zheng Xueyu saw that Ye Lingtian's eyes were slightly red. She said angrily, "Do you want me to die in front of you before you can leave?"
"If that's the case, I'll grant you your wish!"
As Zheng Xueyu spoke, she picked up Zheng Banshan's Longsword from the ground and pretended that she was going to wipe her neck.
Ye Lingtian grabbed onto the Longsword and cut his skin with his sharp blade. Blood dripped down the sword and onto the snow.
"Are you sure?" Ye Lingtian asked in a deep voice.
Zheng Xueyu turned her face away, her expression as cold as ice. "As a descendant of Zheng Family, this is all I can do!"
Ye Lingtian took the Longsword and threw it on the ground. He pointed at Zheng Xueyu and said: "You are pedantic!"
Zheng Xueyu's delicate body trembled. She turned around and sneered at Ye Lingtian, "That's because you still don't understand this world. You don't know what is aristocratic families, and what is familial."
Ximen Wuji held his sword tightly and said to Zheng Xueyu, "Miss, this happened because of me. Otherwise, Master and you wouldn't have ended up like this."
"What's the matter with you?" Ye Lingtian looked coldly at Ximen Wuji and snapped, "You did what you had to do. If Zheng Banshan wants to kill me, don't tell me I have to stretch my neck and wait to kill him!"
After saying this, Ye Lingtian took two steps back and bowed deeply. Then, he looked at Zheng Xueyu whose long hair was fluttering in the wind. "I'll wait for you!"
"You didn't have a reason to wait for me, and I won't give you a reason to wait!" Zheng Xueyu looked down at the Longsword that was covered in Ye Lingtian's blood.
"Let's go!" Ye Lingtian popped a word through his teeth and led Ximen Wuji away with big strides.
After he had left for a very long time, Zheng Xueyu slowly walked in front of Zheng Dongfang, and said weakly: "The Zheng Family is on the verge of collapse, and it's not that my strength is weak, but my family's spirit and spirit has been lost."
"If this hasn't changed, it's almost impossible for Zheng Family to repeat the previous glory."
Zheng Dongfang looked at Ye Lingtian's back as he left. He wanted to reprimand Zheng Xueyu, but if he thought about it carefully, was Zheng Xueyu wrong?
"Sofia, if only you were a boy." Zheng Dongfang patted Lili's shoulder, looked around, and lowered his head as he said, "That day in the Life And Death Arena, only you looked like a descendant of the Zheng Family."
"I shouldn't have caused too much trouble that day with my Life And Death Arena."
Zheng Xueyu walked in front of the fallen Zheng Family disciple and said softly: "If Zheng Xiaoxiao dies, Zheng Banshan will definitely die. Since he's going to die anyway, why should he implicate so many Zheng Family disciples?"
Zheng Dongfang's old face froze and he let out a long sigh: "This thing shouldn't have happened like this."
"This really shouldn't be the case, it's all because of Zheng Banshan being overwhelmed by power and influence!"
Zheng Sinan swept a glance at the elders who had been standing closely with Zheng Banshan, reprimanding him without any trace of politeness.
"Even if Zheng Banshan, Zheng Xiaoxiao, were to go overboard with her Life And Death Arena, if she were to take a step back with her Zheng Family, they could turn hostility into friendship."
"Ye Lingtian has a deep relationship with Zheng Family, and can help with Zheng Family in the future."
"And now?"
Everyone knew what Zheng Banshan was going to say.
Originally, everyone had been hoping to cling onto Ye Lingtian's high branch, and if it wasn't for Zheng Xueyu standing there today, wouldn't Zheng Family have been a huge disaster?
Thinking of this, a long sigh sounded.
If they had known Ye Lingtian was so capable, the higher ups of Zheng Family would have immediately removed Zheng Banshan from the position of Second Elder. Or rather, directly sacrificing Zheng Banshan's father and daughter would be worth it.
But how could there be medicine for regret in this world?
Zheng Sinan glanced at the crowd's reaction as a victorious smile appeared on his face.
There was no longer any suspense about the position of Zheng Family's Patriarch!
