Chapter 128 Yun Ling Launches an Attack, Xiao Lei Makes His Appearance! [Please Read On]
"what!"
Nalan Yanran's sudden action caused all the Yunlan Sect disciples in the square, including the elders, to change their expressions drastically.
They never expected that Nalan Yanran would commit suicide because she lost the competition.
At this moment, some elders in the arena wanted to help, but due to the distance, they could only watch helplessly as the sharp blade got closer and closer to Nalan Yanran's neck.
"Ding!"
The longsword carried a chilling aura as it sliced through the air. However, just as it was about to touch that snow-white skin, two slender fingers appeared out of thin air and then suddenly clamped down.
With a crisp sound, the longsword abruptly stopped, and the sharp sword energy left a shallow bloodstain on the delicate neck.
Fresh blood slowly flowed down, leaving glaring bloodstains on the snow-white skin.
With her longsword blocked, Nalan Yanran suddenly looked up and saw Xiao Yan's indifferent, dark eyes.
"I have little interest in taking you as a slave or maid, so you don't need to do such a thing to protect the reputation of the Yunlan Sect."
Xiao Yan glanced at Nalan Yanran, who was biting her red lips, and felt a little helpless.
If he really makes Nalan Yanran a slave or lets her commit suicide, the Yunlan Sect will probably be furious and become enemies with the Xiao family!
This was not something Xiao Yan was happy to see.
"The three-year agreement has ended. From now on, we will have no further connection. Consider your failure today as a price for the wrong methods you used back then!"
Xiao Yan spoke calmly, his fingers gripping the longsword. He suddenly yanked it, then flung it away with a smile on his face.
"Nalan Yanran, from now on you will have no further connection with my Xiao family. You are free. Congratulations."
Looking at the handsome young man with a smile on his face, Nalan Yanran's expression was complicated.
She has finally obtained what she has been pursuing, but for some reason, there is a huge emptiness in her heart.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the show is over. Now it's time to go home."
Xiao Yan turned his head, smiled at everyone, and then re-inserted the Xuan Heavy Ruler into his back. Under the watchful eyes of countless people, he slowly walked out of the square.
"Mr. Xiao Yan, please stay a moment. My Yunlan Sect has something that needs your personal verification."
Just then, a deep voice slowly echoed across the square.
That voice belonged to Yun Leng, the Grand Elder of the Yunlan Sect.
As Yun Leng's voice faded, all eyes turned once again to Xiao Yan, who was about to leave the plaza.
Nalan Yanran wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, glanced at Xiao Yan's retreating figure with complicated emotions, and then said to Yun Leng, "Elder, in today's competition, Yanran was indeed inferior in skill..."
"Yanran, this is not about the competition. Please step back for now," Yunling said, waving his hand with a serious expression.
"What's going on?" On the giant tree, Fa Ma and the others were also somewhat bewildered by this sudden change. They looked at each other with puzzled expressions.
"Could it be that Yun Ling, because Nalan Yanran lost the competition, wants to forcibly keep Xiao Yan here?" Jia Xingtian laughed.
"He wouldn't dare do something so foolish as to ruin the reputation of the Yunlan Sect," Fa Ma shook his head and said.
Seeing this, Ya Fei frowned slightly and said to Xiao Lei, "Does the Yunlan Sect really intend to disregard the rules and forcibly detain Xiao Yan?"
Xiao Lei smiled and said, "Let's take a look first."
He was also somewhat curious about what reason Yun Ling would use to attack Xiao Yan this time.
In the plaza, Yun Leng stared intently at Xiao Yan's back, a faint fluctuation of Dou Qi brewing in his palm. If Xiao Yan made any move to escape, he would immediately stop him.
The silence lasted for a long time before the figure, as still as a stone sculpture, finally moved slightly.
Xiao Yan turned around, looked in Yun Leng's direction, and said calmly, "Elder Yun Leng, what is it?"
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Yun Leng slowly stood up, staring at Xiao Yan with a sinister gaze, and said in a deep voice:
"I wonder if Mr. Xiao Yan has heard about the death of Mo Cheng, the outer sect deacon of my Yunlan Sect, a few months ago?"
As soon as Yun Leng said this, some whispers immediately arose in the square.
Mo Cheng held a high position in the Yunlan Sect, and coupled with his excellent interpersonal skills, he had good relationships within the sect.
His death caused quite a stir in the Yunlan Sect.
On a giant tree on one side of the square, Xiao Lei was also somewhat surprised. Without Qing Lin's involvement, how did Xiao Yan still end up clashing with the Mo family?
Is this just a plot device?
Xiao Yan said calmly, "Elder Yunling, what do you mean by that? Do you think I killed Mo Cheng?"
Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!
Yun Leng pointed to Ge Ye beside him, and his deep voice resounded, "Yan Ran and Ge Ye happened to be attending Mo Cheng's birthday celebration, so they were there. Ge Ye even fought with him and saw his face."
"However, that person was concealing himself at the time, and only just now did he confirm that the mysterious person was you, Xiao Yan!"
"The evidence you're talking about is just Ge Ye's one-sided story. It's laughable that you think you can convict me of murder based on that alone," Xiao Yan retorted to Yun Leng, his eyes flashing slightly.
"I'm sorry, but until we uncover the truth, Mr. Xiao Yan may have to stay at the Yunlan Sect for a while," Yun Leng said coldly, waving his hand. "Enforcement Team, detain him!"
Xiao Yan's public defeat of the Yunlan Sect's young master severely damaged the Yunlan Sect's reputation. If it weren't for the presence of people from various major forces, he would have loved to kill Xiao Yan on the spot.
Now, Yun Ling's mention of Mo Cheng is merely an excuse to keep Xiao Yan here.
Whether Xiao Yan killed Mo Cheng or not was not important to Yun Leng!
As Yun Leng's shout fell, a dozen white figures suddenly shot out from among the nearly one thousand Yunlan Sect disciples on the plaza, their fighting spirit surging wildly, instantly surrounding Xiao Yan.
However, these law enforcement team disciples did not last a single move against Xiao Yan before they were all blasted away.
Immediately, Xiao Yan unleashed his Dou Qi Wings and flew towards the outside of the Yunlan Sect.
"Hmph! Stay here!"
Looking at Xiao Yan soaring into the sky, Yun Leng let out a sharp shout. With a wave of his hand, the three white-robed elders on the stone platform trembled slightly and slowly disappeared. When they reappeared, they formed a triangle, completely blocking Xiao Yan's escape route.
"Xiao Yan, if you weren't feeling guilty, why were you in such a hurry to leave?" Yun Ling looked up coldly at Xiao Yan, then glanced around at the people on the giant tree, and said in a deep voice,
"Everyone, judging from Xiao Yan's behavior, it seems he is indeed related to Mo Cheng's death. Therefore, we cannot let him leave before the sect leader returns. This matter is of great importance, and we ask for your understanding."
"Yunling, you are a eunuch," a clear voice suddenly came from the giant tree on one side of the square.
"Damn it, who's spouting nonsense? Come out and face your death!" Yun Ling was furious upon hearing this.
Xiao Lei's thunderous wings flapped, and he instantly flew to Xiao Yan's side. Looking down at Yun Leng, he smiled and said, "Yun Leng, if you weren't feeling guilty, why were you in such a hurry to refute me?"
Around the square, upon hearing Xiao Lei's words, everyone subconsciously looked at Yun Ling with strange expressions.
