The disciples of the Beast King Place knew very well that one was Peak Rank Eight Transcendent Realm powerhouse, whereas the other was Initial Rank Three Transcendent Realm martial artist.
The gap was too big. Although Ling Xiao was able to defeat Hei Suo, it was absolutely impossible for him to defeat Ying Wuya.
Therefore, they were very happy. They wanted to see Ying Wuya teach Ling Xiao a good lesson.
“Hehe, I’m not a man if I don’t accept your challenge? Then, I ask you, Ying Wuya, since you are so overbearing, why don’t you directly challenge our Moonlight Sect’s Vast Wintry Celestial Worthy or Golden Light Celestial Worthy?”
Ling Xiao sneered: “Like that, it would show your manly side, and also make that charming girl beside you see how fearless you are!”
“Brother Ling’s words are unreasonable. Both Vast Wintry Celestial Worthy and Golden Light Celestial Worthy are much older than me. They are regarded as the older generation. Even if I, this Ying Wuya, am given ten times more guts, I will not dare to challenge them.”
He then added with a faint smile: “Brother Ling, using these words to brush me off, isn’t that too cowardly?”
“Oh, it turns out that there are times where you, Ying Wuya, also don’t dare to fight. Are you still a man then?”
Ling Xiao smiled with disdain and added: “Since you know that you are not the opponent of Vast Wintry Celestial Worthy and Golden Light Celestial Worthy, moreover, you also know that they are much older than you, may I ask Brother Ying, how old are you?”
“Thirty-six!”
Ying Wuya answered.
“Oh, thirty-six, then do you know how old I am?”
Ling Xiao indifferently added: “I’m just fourteen years old this year. Now, why don’t you say that the big is bullying the small?”
Upon hearing this, the crowd roared in approval.
Ying Wuya was thirty-six years old. Although attaining Peak Rank Eight Transcendent Realm at this age was already very outstanding, Ling Xiao was just fourteen years old.
Since you, Ying Wuya, don’t dare to challenge older people, but you want Ling Xiao to challenge you, isn’t that too shameless?
With Ling Xiao’s talent, at the age of thirty-six, he might definitely attain more than Peak Rank Eight Transcendent Realm.
Ying Wuya was dumbfounded for a moment. He truly hadn’t expected that Ling Xiao had placed a trap here.
This made it very difficult to step down.
But he immediately said: “That’s simple then, since Brother Ling’s cultivation base is Initial Rank Three Transcendent Realm, I can also limit my cultivation base in this realm, is that fine with you?”
“There is no need to go through such troubles. Why don’t you just find three disciples of the Beast King Palace with the same cultivation base as mine to challenge me? Don’t the disciples of your Beast King Palace dare to fight?”
Just after Ying Wuya spoke, Ling Xiao put forward his own suggestion.
This made Ying Wuya feel as if he had swallowed a mouthful of dogshit. He was unable to speak for a long time.
As for the disciples of the Beast King Palace, they were looking at each other, revealing a timid look.
Ling Xiao could even kill a Peak Rank Fourth Transcendent Realm martial artist in a single move. Even if the three of them went up together, it would be useless. They might just follow in the footsteps of She Mei.
“Humph, so Ying Wuya, are you telling me that none of the martial artists below Rank Four Transcendent Realm of your Beast King Palace are men? Since no one dares to fight, we are leaving!”
Ling Xiao snorted coldly, turned around, and left, leaving behind a sentence for the Beast King Palace’s people.
“Ying Wuya, I will definitely fight with you. It won’t be too long, a year at the most. I hope you will not be not man like them at that time, hahahaha!”
Ling Xiao’s voice was more domineering and more confident than Ying Wuya!
Want to challenge Ying Wuya within a year?
Does this kid think that he can reach Peak Rank Eight Transcendent Realm within a year?
Everyone was shocked.
However, there were many people among the crowd that didn’t doubt Ling Xiao’s words.
They had never heard of Ling Xiao’s name before, not to mention have any dealings with him, but after this incident, they had a clearer understanding of Ling Xiao.
This youth was very daring, had amazing talent, and was also wise.
On the surface, he appeared unrestrained and carefree, but in fact, he was very cunning.
Some of his seemingly reckless actions, if one considered it carefully, one would notice that this kid had other plans.
If he was truly arrogant and ignorant, then he would have fought against Ying Wuya today, then returned in defeat.
But he didn’t accept the other’s invitation to fight, however, said that he would definitely challenge Ying Wuya within a year. This was his evasive and cunning aspect.
This kid truly had unlimited potential.
Many martial artists, whose cultivation base was much higher than Ling Xiao, felt a kind of deep dread towards Ling Xiao.
This dread had even surpassed their dread towards Ying Wuya.
Because they felt that Ling Xiao would soon surpass this ranked-ninth core disciple of the Beast King Palace.
The disciples of the Beast King Palace looked at Ling Xiao’s distant back view in succession. All of them had an embarrassed look on their face.
This kid actually didn’t even attach any impotence to their Senior Brother Ying Wuya, how arrogant was this?
“I’ll be waiting for you!”
Ying Wuya coldly spat out these five words. He then flung his sleeve and said: “We are also returning.”
He didn’t believe that Ling Xiao could become stronger than him in a year!
The martial path becomes increasingly difficult as you advance. It was nothing strange that Ling Xiao’s cultivation speed was so fast now, but the further he advanced, the more difficult it would be.
A day later, Ling Xiao and others arrived at the Moonlight Sect.
And two days later, the higher-ups of the sect had already discussed things. In the end, the Sect Master personally came forward to decide things, and made the decision——
“Ling Xiao’s bravery is extraordinary. As an outer disciple, he was able to complete the fourth-ranked task, moreover, killed the Plague Demon King with his own power, and discovered the secret of the resurrection of the True Demon Empire, reward him!”
Although these words seemed very casual, some things had been carefully thought out.
The rewards for the fourth-ranked task are relatively clear and also simple, and with a clear reward amount, they just needed to follow the process.
As for the contribution of killing the Plague Demon King and discovering the conspiracy of the True Demon Empire, it needed to be discussed carefully.
First, Ling Xiao would receive the reward for a fourth-ranked task.
The reward for the original third-ranked task was relatively small, but the reward for the fourth-ranked task was much higher.
The rewards were one thousand low-grade spirit stones and one thousand sect contribution points.
Secondly, he would be rewarded with additional one thousand low-grade spirit stones and one thousand sect contribution points for killing the Plague Demon King and discovering the conspiracy of the True Demon King. In addition, Ling Xiao was given a special exemption from compulsory sect tasks, which was equivalent to being an inner disciple!
In the end, with this task, Ling Xiao earned 2,000 low-grade spirit stones and 2,000 sect contribution points.
As said before, the contribution points were more useful than low-grade spirit stones. In the sect, the contributions points could be used to exchange various martial art manuals, martial weapons, pills, and so on.
Moreover, after accumulating a certain amount of contribution points, one could even purchase the sect’s contribution martial equipment and even gain some special benefits.
For instance, one could enter the sect’s secret land to cultivate, or one could get personal guidance from the sect’s elders, and so on.
In short, the sect contribution points were equivalent to ‘privilege’ in the sect. If one could accumulate contribution points to a certain level, then even elders wouldn’t dare to easily make a move.
Ling Xiao needed low-grade spirit stones, but he needed contribution points even more. This time, he had made a fortune. He was naturally quite satisfied.
