Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

At that time, Yunying kept repeating this sentence. At that moment, she really wanted to die and follow her mother.

My mother is already dead, what’s the point of me still living?

However, when Xiao Ying really wanted to commit suicide, Xiao Qingge's face suddenly appeared in his mind, as well as Xiao Qingge's last words to him.

Xiao Ying suddenly didn't want to die so easily.

She wants to live, she wants to live.

She was unwilling to die in such an unclear manner.

She wanted to find out the cause of her mother's death, and she wanted to find out why she was locked up here.

She wanted to kill Xiao Wuyun.

Even though she could only bury her head in the bowl brought by the Xiao clan's holy guards and swallow the food like a dog, she ate it without hesitation.

Personality, dignity, and everything you had in the past are no longer important.

Although she couldn't do anything now, she had guessed in recent years that Xiao Wuyun wanted to find something from her mind.

And that thing might very well be the final technique that my mother buried deep in her soul.

In other words, as long as that martial art is not revealed, Xiao Wuyun will let her survive and constantly improve her strength through elixirs.

What you need to do is the same as you did in the past.

Be patient and wait, waiting for the opportunity to come.

Xiao Ying's eyes were filled with ferocity. Even though his body was so weak, the murderous light in his eyes never faded at all, and continued to flicker in this dark underground prison.

What Xiao Ying didn't know was that outside the clan leader's mansion, Xiao Ling's eyes were fixed on the location of the underground prison.

A long time ago, Xiao Ling noticed that the Xiao clan's holy guards would take away some elixirs from the family every once in a while, and the level of the elixirs was getting higher and higher.

Afterwards, Xiao Ling discovered the existence of the underground prison in the clan leader's mansion through various means. He even went in once when the Xiao clan's holy guards were not around. He saw Xiao Ying imprisoned inside, and happened to see her bound by chains with her face buried in a bowl.

Looking at Xiao Ying, who was once envied by him and admired by everyone, and now eating like a dog, Xiao Ling did not feel a trace of joy in his heart. He then left the underground prison with a complicated look in his eyes.

It was also from that time that Xiao Ling became completely confused.

Why don't I feel happy when I see her miserable appearance?

With this question in mind, Xiao Ling returned home, lay on his back in the bedroom, staring at the familiar ceiling with trance eyes.

At this moment, there was only one word in her heart.

boring.

Once upon a time, she would practice hard whenever she had time, and would strive for it as long as it could improve her strength, even if it was only a little bit.

But since when, she suddenly lost the motivation to become stronger.

Everyone only saw her current extraordinary strength, which far surpassed her peers.

However, no one knew that she had never practiced hard. From a certain moment on, her practice had just gone with the flow, and she had not put her whole heart into it like before.

Why, exactly?

Xiao Ling slowly closed his eyes and kept thinking.

How come I suddenly lost the desire to become stronger when I once wanted to become stronger?

What started it all and made me become like this?

Xiao Ling's consciousness kept wandering in his own memories, constantly exploring the past, trying to find the reason why he had become in this state of mind.

Xiao Ling just lay on the bed with her eyes closed, as if she was asleep.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Ling suddenly opened his eyes and sat up abruptly from the bed.

What was circling in my mind was the supportive attitude of others towards me in the test venue today. Suddenly, I understood why I had been depressed in the past few years.

it's because of her

There was a look of sudden shock in Xiao Ling's eyes.

I remembered.

I remembered why I wanted to become stronger so much.

She used to be so high up and always looked down on me, so I wanted to defeat her and make others recognize me more.

I want everyone to believe from the bottom of their hearts that she can't compare to me.

That's why I practice so hard and try so hard to improve my strength.

However, when she suddenly became a waste, I suddenly didn't desire her so much anymore.

Because I don't need to work hard to be superior to her, and I don't need to work hard to be in her former position.

It is true that I surpassed her, but this was not due to my own efforts. I surpassed her because she became a waste.

Even I think so, what do others think?

Would they think that if Xiao Ying hadn't suddenly become a waste, I would never be able to surpass her?

I kept causing trouble for Xiao Ying when she was down and out, hoping that she would suddenly regain her former talent and lose to me in the true sense!

Xiao Ling's heart suddenly became clear.

I understand, I finally understand!

I want to win! I want to become stronger in order to defeat her!

It’s true that she fell behind me, but that doesn’t count as my win at all!!!

No! I don't want it!

I must beat her! I must beat her!

I want to win her in front of everyone! I want to pat my chest and declare to everyone that I, Xiao Ling, am better than her, Xiao Ying!!!

The confusion of the past five years was finally completely cleared up at this moment, making Xiao Ling's stagnant heart active again, just like a drowning person grabbing a straw and holding it tightly in his hand at all costs.

I'm going to bring her out! I'm going to bring her out!

Not only do I have to bring her out! I also want to help her get the Doudi bloodline back!!!

There was madness in Xiao Ling's eyes, and his heart was repeating the same thing over and over again like a demon.

If she died in that prison, wouldn't I never be able to defeat her in this life? !

Many years later, even if he became the clan leader and the strongest of the Xiao clan, people who knew about Xiao Ying's existence would feel sorry for her, thinking that if she hadn't suddenly lost her talent, he wouldn't necessarily be the clan leader! He wouldn't necessarily be the strongest of the Xiao clan!

I don’t want such a result!

If my position as clan leader and the reputation of the strongest Xiao clan were obtained by relying on Xiao Ying's downfall, I wouldn't want them!

I must truly defeat her! Use the facts to shut everyone up!!!

Xiao Ling stood up and left the bedroom, walking through the void towards the clan leader's residence.

However, when he was about to approach the clan leader's mansion, Xiao Ling was slightly startled, and his body suddenly dropped down. He hid in a corner while concealing his breath, and secretly glanced at the Xiao clan's holy guards guarding the clan leader's mansion.

One-star Dou Zun!

Obviously, Xiao Wuyun sent the Xiao clan's holy guards to guard here in order to watch Xiao Ying and prevent her from escaping from the dungeon by chance.

He broke Xiao Ying's hands and feet, and bound her body and fighting spirit with chains, but that was not enough, so he also sent the Xiao clan's holy guards to guard here. This was enough to show how much Xiao Wuyun valued Xiao Ying, or what was in Xiao Ying's soul.

But it was obvious that Xiao Wuyun was still a little careless.

In Xiao Wuyun's opinion, a one-star Dou Zun was enough to look after Xiao Ying. Xiao Ying had managed to escape from the dungeon by luck. As she was at the peak of Douhuang and her Dou Qi had been sealed for a long time, it was impossible for her to escape from a one-star Dou Zun.

However, Xiao Wuyun did not consider the variable of Xiao Ling, or he did not know about this variable at all.

Five years ago, this person was the only one who knew the inside story besides Xiao Wuyun and the three elders.

Xiao Ling looked at the Xiao clan's holy guard in the clan leader's mansion. It was obvious that the guy also felt that he didn't need to take Xiao Ying so seriously, and he didn't seem to be very focused.

Moreover, he is only a one-star Dou Zun.

Xiao Ling raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and after confirming that there were no other Xiao clan holy guards guarding here, he swaggered into the clan leader's mansion.

When the Xiao clan's holy guard saw Xiao Ling suddenly come in, his expression froze at first, then relaxed.

He naturally recognized Xiao Ling, the leader of the new generation in the clan and the granddaughter of the great elder.

"Miss Xiao Ling, what are you doing here?"

The Xiao clan's holy guard asked softly. Although he was directly under the clan leader, it was impossible for him to completely ignore the authority of the elders. He had to be a little polite when facing Xiao Ling, the granddaughter of the great elder.

"I have something to ask the chieftain. Is he not here?"

"The clan leader just left and is not in the mansion for the time being."

The Xiao clan's holy guard answered softly, and Xiao Ling, who came in front of him, nodded slightly with a hint of disappointment on his face.

"He's not here. Okay, I'll come next time." Xiao Ling was about to turn around and leave when he suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked behind the Xiao clan's holy guard. "Eh? What's that?"

The Xiao clan's holy guard, who had relaxed his vigilance, didn't think much about it and turned his head instinctively, but didn't see anything.

However, immediately afterwards, he felt a pain in his neck, his vision spun around, and he finally fell to the ground.

What caught his eyes was Xiao Ling's smile with blood splashed on his face and excitement and madness in his eyes. The gradually disappearing strange blood-red sword in his hand made his pupils shrink.

At the last moment of his life, he recalled in his mind what this blood-red sword was.

One-time secret method. Blood blade to kill the master.

Looking at the confused look of the Xiao clan holy guard at his feet, Xiao Ling's eyes were free of compassion, but instead contained a hint of madness.

Not to mention that this Xiao clan holy guard is just a fellow clansman, if there is anyone standing in the way of her goal, she will never show mercy even if that person is her grandfather!

I will definitely beat Xiao Ying, no one can stop me!!!

At this time, the blood-colored strange long sword in Xiao Ling's hand had completely disappeared. Xiao Ling raised his hand and looked at his empty palm, and couldn't help sighing in his heart.

The Blood Blade of the Beheading Master was a one-time secret technique that his grandfather gave him out of joy when he broke through to the Dou Zong level. As long as the opponent did not use Dou Qi to defend, even a Dou Zun with a strong body would not be able to resist it.

Although it can only be swung once, it is enough for Xiao Ling.

It is estimated that this Xiao clan holy guard never understood until his death why the granddaughter of the great elder Xiao Ling suddenly attacked and killed him when he had no grudge against her.

Xiao Ling's eyes immediately turned cold, and he transformed his soul into a sharp blade. With just one strike, he instantly killed the soul of the Xiao clan's holy guard, which had not yet left his body.

The Xiao people know very well how to deal with souls.

Although the Xiao clan's holy guard in front of him is already a Dou Zun, he may not be stronger than Xiao Ling in terms of soul alone.

Xiao Ling reached out and picked up the separated body of the Xiao clan's holy guard, wiped the blood on the ground, then turned around and strode into the hall, walked to the corner, opened the floor tiles and walked down.

Ten seconds later, Xiao Ling arrived at the underground prison. He came to the outside of the prison and looked down at Xiao Ying, who was tied up with chains with his head drooping. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly and called out in a low voice.

"Hey, Xiao Ying, are you still alive?"

When Xiao Ying heard this familiar voice that was still fresh in her memory, she slowly opened her eyes, raised her head slightly, and looked at Xiao Ling who was looking down at her.

Suddenly, Xiao Ying's eyes showed astonishment.

Why is she here?

Although this doubt popped up in Xiao Ying's mind for the first time, he immediately put it aside indifferently, lowered his head and did not respond.

Now, no matter who appears in front of her, she doesn't care. She only wants to survive and leave the prison when the time comes to avenge her mother.

The rest of the things are not important, even if the woman in front of him has trampled his dignity to pieces.

"How boring! You can't even reply?"

Xiao Ling curled her lips slightly, stretched out her hand to open the prison door, stepped in, grabbed Xiao Ying's dirty long hair, and lifted her face up to face herself without mercy.

Looking at Xiao Ying's thin, dusty, pale face, Xiao Ling's eyes were filled with disgust.

"That's really disgusting. Have you not taken a shower for five years?"

There was no kindness in Xiao Ling's words, and he hated Xiao Ying from the bottom of his heart.

Xiao Ying had long been accustomed to this. After all, Xiao Ling had disliked him for a long time, and he did not react at all to her ridicule.

Xiao Ling felt speechless when she saw that Xiao Ying's face remained expressionless even though she was mocking him like that.

"You really are a waste from the inside out. Even a dog will at least show its teeth when kicked. Are you worse than a dog?"
