Although the works arranged to the other new outer disciples weren’t as good as the works for these few, they were not bad.
At the very least, their tasks were relatively normal. Whether it was the degree of toughness or the degree of difficulty, there was no intention to deliberately make things difficult.
At Ling Xiao’s turn, the situation suddenly changed.
Li Anle glanced at Ling Xiao with disdain and said: “Ling Xiao, your work is to mine. You are responsible to collect iron ores for the Weapon Hall. You should collect at least 10,000 pounds per day. Do you understand?”
10,000 pounds!
Anyone familiar with the Moonlight Sect’s iron mines knew that even an ordinary mineworker employed from the outside was responsible for just 1,000 pounds per day. And here, he actually gave Ling Xiao 10,000 pounds, which was even more than the amount assigned to Wu Xiang.
Wu Xiang had to work all night to collect 5,000 pounds. He even had to waste his cultivation time.
This task was purely bullying people.
Many outer disciples who had a good relationship with Ling Xiao felt sympathy for him, but they didn’t dare to say anything.
Why did the other party target Ling Xiao?
Wasn’t the answer very simple?
Ling Xiao had injured Tian Chao, so someone might be helping Tian Chao avenge himself.
The others’ thoughts were relatively simple. In fact, if it was only Tian Chao, Jin Ming, Yang Cheng, and Li Anle wouldn’t have easily offended Ling Xiao.
However, this matter involved Hei Suo and Demonic Flame Celestial Worthy, so the situation was quite different.
Xu Ying looked at Ling Xiao. She was obviously very happy since she hated him.
Under these sympathetic or gloating gazes, Ling Xiao slowly opened his mouth: “Replying to three Senior Brothers, it’s truly unfortunate, but I cannot accept this work.”
“Won’t accept?”
Jin Ming, Yang Cheng and Li Anle looked at each other. They were not angry but happy.
Once someone refused to accept the assigned work, it could be regarded as violating the sect’s rules. Then, they could make Ling Xiao suffer a bit.
“Are you sure that you won’t accept it?”
Li Anle asked with a smile while walking towards Ling Xiao.
“Yes, I’m sure!”
Ling Xiao nodded.
“The sect has rules. Those who don’t accept the assigned tasks will receive punishment!”
Li Anle sneered and suddenly rushed over.
There was no specific standard to the so-called punishment. Therefore, it was entirely up to Li Anle. It was fine as long as he didn’t kill Ling Xiao.
Eight Trigrams Swimming Dragon Palm!
When he was roughly ten meters away from Ling Xiao, Li Anle suddenly jumped up.
His movement technique was indeed marvelous.
In the outer sect, he was definitely top ten in terms of his movement technique.
Jin Ming sat there without saying a word, simply sneering. H
Yang Cheng also had a cruel look.
Hei Suo, who was far away, also had a hint of a smile on his face.
Xu Ying was so excited that she cheered. Li Anle was a Half Great Master. Compared to Tian Chao, he was far more powerful.
She believed that Ling Xiao couldn’t withstand this attack.
“A quasi-gold-grade martial art? You actually look down on me so much?”
Ling Xiao noticed that Li Anle was actually using a quasi-gold-grade martial art to deal with him.
Meanwhile, his movement technique was just an entry gold-grade martial art.
Ling Xiao sneered. He wanted to test the power of <Divine Prison King Fist>, which had now been upgraded to a rare gold-grade martial art: this Li Anle was a perfect dummy.
Divine Prison King Fist——Killing Life!
Ling Xiao didn’t dodge, instead punching out.
At that instant, red shadows flashed in Li Anle’s eyes, as if countless ghosts were rushing towards him with sharp claws.
In addition, that terrifying killing intent made him suddenly freeze in midair. “Scram!”
Ling Xiao shouted.
Li Anle was sent flying.
Afterward, Li Anle’s face became deathly pale, and his arms continuously trembled.
“Ghost! Demons!”
Li Anle shouted in horror.
He was much stronger than Tian Chao. Unfortunately, Ling Xiao’s strength had also greatly improved. In addition, Li Anle hadn’t take Ling Xiao seriously. As a result, he had lost in a single punch.
Jin Ming and Yang Cheng were greatly surprised.
They knew Li Anle’s strength. It was absolutely impossible for them to defeat Li Anle in one move.
This Ling Xiao was as terrifying as the rumors.
Hei Sho in the distance was so angry that he directly smashed his teapot. “Idiot, I said that Ling Xiao’s combat power is very high, and he still underestimated his opponent!”
In his opinion, Li Anle would never have suffered such a disastrous defeat if he hadn’t underestimated his opponent.
This was true, but there are no ifs.
“Ling Xiao, do you want to rebel? You didn’t obey the arrangements and injured your Senior Brother. What do you want to do?”
Jim Ming angrily retorted.
“Senior Brother Jin, I have to make one thing clear first. I’m not disobeying the arrangement. It’s just that I have already been received by the people of the Medicine Hall. I have to go there to help. It was this Senior Brother Li who suddenly attacked me without asking for clarification.”
Ling Xiao said neither arrogantly nor humbly: “He attacked recklessly and was injured. It can only be said that he is not up to much. Why do you blame me?”
“Medicine Hall?”
Yang Cheng snorted: “Even if it is the Medicine Hall, we can still arrange your work.”
“Hehe, is that so? Then, why don’t you go to the Medicine Hall’s Old Yang to talk about this matter? If he agrees, I will definitely obey your arrangement and go mine.”
Ling Xiao said with a smile.
“Go then go! Wait a minute! Did you just say Old Yang? Hall Master Old Yang?”
Yang Cheng’s complexion changed greatly.
“That’s right. Yesterday, I don’t know which dog injured Senior Brother Wu, but I took him to the Medicine Hall. At that time, Old Yang mentioned this matter and asked me to notify the deacon today. However, who would have thought that Lord Deacon wouldn’t come today?”
Ling Xiao said, looking helpless.
Jin Ming and Yang Cheng’s face became very ugly.
Hei Suo at the distance was so angry that he smashed the stone table.
Xu Ying almost vomited a mouthful of her blood; she truly hadn’t expected this result.
What was this? How could this Ling Xiao be favored by Hall Master Yang?
Zhao Zhi and Zhao Ci looked at Ling Xiao with surprise. They were the members of the imperial family, and they had no grudges with him. Hearing these words, they knew that Ling Xiao must be exceptional.
Otherwise, it was absolutely impossible for Old Yang, who was very picky, to ask Ling Xiao to work in the Medicine Hall.
After all, they had used many connections and still received a worse task.
“Hehe, since Hall Master Yang wants you, you can go to the Medicine Hall.”
Yang Cheng smiled in a very ugly manner.
“Many thanks, Senior Brother Yang!”
Ling Xiao cupped his hands, turned around, and walked towards his stone house.
Looking at Ling Xiao’s back, Yang Cheng’s complexion became sinister.
