Chapter 253: Outer Disciple Tian Chao

Ling Xiao’s attitude towards Wu Xiang was different from Zhao Zhi and Zhao Ting’s.

Even though Ling Xiao knew that Wu Xiang was at the bottom among the old outer disciples, he was very respectful towards him.

This made Wu Xiang feel a bit of warmth. Even if he couldn’t help, he didn’t want Ling Xiao to have an accident on his first day in Moonlight Sect. Therefore, he chased after Ling Xiao.

Tian Chao who was ranked fiftieth had already reached Peak Rank Nine Martial Vein. 

In his view, Ling Xiao’s cultivation base was at best Peak Rank Eight Martial Vein. How could he fight such an expert?

Ling Xiao was definitely going to suffer; therefore, he wanted to stop him.

However, Ling Xiao’s movement technique was too terrifying. By the time he had arrived at the scene, Ling Xiao was already standing in front of Leng Mei, blocking Tian Chao.

“Hehe, what are you nervous about? I, this senior brother, don’t plan to do anything, but since my clothes have been torn, I want this junior sister to mend it.”

Tian Chao looked at Ling Xiao and said with a smile. He then took off his robe and intentionally tore it.

“My sister has coarse hands and feet; moreover, she doesn’t know anything about needlework. How about I, this junior brother, serve Senior Brother?”

Ling Xiao asked with a smile.

“You?”

Tian Chao sneered: “You can, but the tear on my cloth seems to have gotten bigger.”

While speaking, Tian Chao tore his cloth again before throwing it at Ling Xiao.

In midair, Ling Xiao suddenly hit the clothes with a palm.

The robe turned into dust!

“You kid, what are you doing?”

Tian Chao shouted with his eyes wide open.

“Dealing with a piece of rubbish!”

Ling Xiao indifferently said.

Although Leng Mei had not been injured this time, the other party’s intentions were very obvious.

He had decided to keep low-profile, but that was absolutely not necessary against those below Transcendent Realm.

Originally, his combat skills had been very powerful. Both Hei Suo and Demonic Flame Celestial Worthy already knew that, so there was no need to conceal them.

“Kid, are you tired of living?”

 Tian Chao punched out but was stopped by someone.

“Junior Brother Tian, it’s meaningless to bully a newly recruited disciple. I will make him compensate for your clothes.”

It was Wu Xiang who had blocked Tian Chao.

“Compensate?”

Tian Chao grinned and said: “That’s also fine. My clothes were woven from the best celestial silk found on Heavenly Dragon Continent. It’s worth at least one thousand low-grade spirit stones. I’ll give you a day to prepare it. if you can’t pay it, don’t blame me for being rude.”

After speaking, he looked at Wu Xiang with a hint of fear.  Then, he turned and left.

Ling Xiao inwardly wryly smiled: “I say, Senior brother, I was looking for someone to test my moves and see the level of Moonlight Sect’s outer disciples. Why did you interrupt?”

Although he thought this in his heart, Wu Xiang was a kind person. Therefore, he didn’t say anything. He just cupped his hands and thanked Wu Xiang.

“No need to thank me. However, he said one thousand low-grade spirit stones. If Junior brother doesn’t have it, I can help you pay it first.”

Wu Xiang said.

One thousand low-grade spirit stones were precious in the secular world and were similarly precious in the eyes of Moonlight Sect’s outer disciples.

One should know that Wu Xiang had done a lot of tasks, and after saving for a year, he had accumulated just three thousand low-grade spirit stones.

If he didn’t want to become friends with Ling Xiao, he truly wouldn’t have suggested to lend them.

“Senior brother Wu, many thanks, but that’s not necessary.”

Ling Xiao waved his hand.

“Do you have it?”

“How can I have so many low-grade spirit stones? It’s just that I don’t want to give them. You don’t have to worry about this matter. I have my own plan.”

Ling Xiao, in fact, had one thousand low-grade spirit stones, but he didn’t want to reveal his wealth.

His words made many new disciples sweat for him.

That Tian Chao always bullied new disciples, including others besides Leng Mei.

Several new disciples were even seriously injured by him.

In any case, as long as he didn’t cripple or kill someone, it was not breaking the rules, which was a bit similar to Hidden Dragon Battalion.

They knew the terrible nature of Tian Chao, but even a dozen or so Rank Eight Martial Vein Martial Masters couldn’t withstand three moves of his.

Naturally, Zhao Zhi, Xu Ying and Zhao Ci were exceptions. Leng Mei and Ling Xiao also had reasons to not make a move.

But even so, Tian Chao’s strength was terrifying.

Ling Xiao was also clear about this point. He even felt that this Tian Chao’s strength should be on the same level as General Ninth Month’s or even exceed it slightly.

After all, it was too difficult for General Ninth Month to get gold grade martial arts, but Tian Chao could learn them as he pleased. The gap in their cultivation bases was narrowed by martial arts.

If Tian Chao went to the secular world, most Peak Rank Nine Martial Vein martial artists would not be his opponent. Even Lin Ze, Wan Ben, and White Cloud Temple Master had just a 50% chance of victory. Moreover, it would be a miserable victory.

This was the benefit of a sect!

Naturally, this was just for other martial artists. Ling Xiao, who had the Landscape Martial Soul, was not afraid of him.

“Senior Brother Wu, if you are free, why don’t you take us on a stroll around the outer sect? For instance, the Library Pavilion of the outer sect. It’s there, right?”

Ling Xiao quickly tossed the matter of Tian Chao to one side. Since he had come out, he wanted to take time to familiarize himself with the outer sect.

“Moonlight Sect’s Library Pavilion is called ‘Moon Tower,’ which is divided into Outer Moon Tower, Inner Moon Tower, and Core Moon Tower. I will show you around a bit before going to the Outer Moon Tower.”

Wu Xiang was very enthusiastic since he had nothing else to do. 

When no one had paid him any attention before, he had been bored cultivating.  Now that Ling Xiao was willing to be friends with him, he was quite happy.

Wu Xiang first took Ling Xiao and Leng Mei around, familiarizing them with the terrain, before heading to Outer Moon Tower.

“Leng Mei, what happened?”

On the way to Outer Moon Tower, when passing through a valley, Leng Mei suddenly stopped, and her face became solemn. This made Ling Xiao worried.

“It must be the murderous qi.”

Wu Xiang explained: “About 100,000 years ago, this valley was a battlefield. I once saw in a book that there was a foreign assassin who killed no less that one thousand experts of Moonlight Sect in this valley. Thereafter, this place gained murderous qi.”

“There was such a terrifying person?”

“He was actually not that powerful, but his martial arts were too strange.” Wu Xiang shook his head and said: “It’s a pity that that book was also unclear. Otherwise, I truly would want to know what kind of expert he was.”

“Noble son, I’m fine.”

Leng Mei looked at the valley with a smile.

Leng Mei’s cultivation base was inferior to his, so it was very possible that she had been disturbed by the murderous qi. However, such an effect would be fleeting at worst. 

What he didn’t know was that Leng Mei was very impatient now. Being rescued by him many times made her happy but also upset.

After all, her purpose of staying beside Ling Xiao was not to rely on him but rather to help him.

What happened today made her make up her mind. Even if she turned into a ghost, she must improve her strength and become someone who could be useful to Ling Xiao.
