Chapter 223 - astrologer Extinguished

In the dense forest, a horse galloped quickly, in the direction of astrologer.

After Ding Chunqiu died, Ling Xiao took care of the matters at hand with the fastest speed possible, and then directly left for the hilum. He knew that Ding Chunqiu's death could not be hidden, so it would quickly spread throughout the entire Jianghu.

As Ding Chunqiu's disciple, the disciples of the astrologer would naturally pay attention to his every move and any other news. After knowing that Ding Chunqiu had died, they would definitely choose to leave the hilum and each escape.

After all, if even the Sect Leader was dead, what big waves would the disciples like them have to stir up? And to even kill the disciples of the Sect Leader, they must have powerful martial arts. If they had such a deep hatred towards Ding Chunqiu, they would definitely attack their sect.

Ling Xiao had also considered that the disciples of the astrologer would probably escape after hearing that Ding Chunqiu had died, so he had to hurry to the astrologer to finish everything before they could leave.

After all, the place Ding Chunqiu died at was a small city, and if Xu Zhu wanted to go out to resolve her fate, she would not be able to do so for a while. Furthermore, with the important news of Ding Chunqiu's death, he would not spread it by herself.

With a gallop, Ling Xiao arrived at astrologer at the fastest speed possible.

After getting off the horse, Ling Xiao walked straight towards the gate with his hands behind his back.

When they saw that Ling Xiao had arrived, the two guards immediately became flustered. Previously, they had witnessed the terror of Ling Xiao and had also seen the scene of free and unfettered being ruthlessly abused by Ling Xiao. Thus, they had no intention of stopping him.

However, how could a mere gate defend against Ling Xiao? After activating his true energy, the heavy and sturdy looking gate was smashed into pieces by Ling Xiao's palm and dropped to the ground with a loud crash.

Following this action, the entire astrologer knew immediately that someone had invaded. As the head disciple of the astrologer, free and unfettered was naturally unable to evade and stood in front of the crowd of disciples.

Seeing that the God of Slaughter had come back to this place, free and unfettered's face immediately became unsightly. He deeply knew that had caused trouble outside the Sect Leader, because he told Ding Chunqiu all the details of how Ling Xiao came to snatch the Divine Wood King Cauldron.

I thought that with the Sect Leader coming out, Ling Xiao would definitely die, but I never expected that Ling Xiao was actually still alive, and even had come knocking on my door.

Therefore, there was an extremely abundant space between Ling Xiao and free and unfettered. As long as the two of them were not talking loudly, no one would be able to hear what they were saying.

"Sect Master Ling, long time no see, what wind blew you here today?" free and unfettered looked at Ling Xiao, a nervous yet stiff smile hung on his face, as he did not dare display any disrespect.

Ling Xiao squinted his eyes, then said indifferently: "free and unfettered, is your Master out yet?"

He was afraid that Ling Xiao would mention Ding Chunqiu, which would also mean that Ding Chunqiu had really found Ling Xiao.

But since Ding Chunqiu had found Ling Xiao, then why would Ling Xiao still appear here?

The answer was already obvious.

"Sect Master Ling, our Sect Leader has indeed gone out, and is currently not in the sect. As for what he is going to do, we are also unsure, I wonder why Sect Master Ling is here, and why are you looking for our Sect Leader?" As free and unfettered spoke, he gulped. It was obvious that he was extremely nervous.

Hearing this, Ling Xiao laughed coldly, thinking that free and unfettered was indeed capable of lying, to actually say such a nonexistent thing in front of him.

"free and unfettered, your Master told me everything. You said that this Divine Wood King Cauldron was forcefully taken away by me when I intruded your astrologer?" Ling Xiao stretched out his hand and the Divine Wood King Cauldron appeared in his palm.

Hearing that, free and unfettered's body suddenly shook, and he started trembling all over.

"This, this must be Ding Chunqiu's nonsense." free and unfettered pretended to be calm, but his trembling voice still betrayed him.

Ling Xiao took a step forward, and free and unfettered took a step back, not daring to approach Ling Xiao at all.

At this time, free and unfettered's entire mind was just trying to stall for time. When his own Master returned, even though he looked indifferent on the outside and ignored Ding Chunqiu, with his strength, he simply could not block Ling Xiao's attack, so he still placed all his hopes on Ding Chunqiu.

Just at this time, a astrologer disciple ran over anxiously from afar, and shouted loudly: "Not good, not good, not good!"

Seeing this scene, the surrounding disciples of the astrologer opened up a path, and at the same time, some doubt arose in their hearts. Could it be that the worst thing in front of them wasn't Ling Xiao invading them?

When free and unfettered saw this, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief, not thinking that something bad had happened, because in his eyes, as long as he could delay Ling Xiao, no matter how bad the situation, it would all be good.

"What are you so flustered about? Tell me what it is." With a belly full of grievance, free and unfettered faced a rude disciple. Naturally, he had to seize this opportunity to ruthlessly pretend and vent his feelings.

However, this astrologer disciple did not care about free and unfettered Zi's serious expression, as she knew that the matter was very serious.

Seeing that, Ling Xiao could not help but sneer: "Coincidentally, someone came to tell you this news."

Hearing this, free and unfettered felt all his hairs stand on end, and the speculation in his heart continuously grew larger.

"Sect Leader, Sect Leader is dead!" The astrologer disciple shouted with a panicked expression.

When these words were said, the surrounding immediately went into an uproar, every single astrologer disciple had an unerasable fear on their face.

free and unfettered's face was even more pale. Although he already had the answer in his heart, he still subconsciously asked, "Who killed him?"

The astrologer disciple raised her trembling hand, pointed at Ling Xiao and said: "That's right, it's him …"

free and unfettered felt like his mind was completely blank. Sure enough, Ding Chunqiu found Ling Xiao, but he was killed by Ling Xiao!

"Sect Master Ling, listen to me, I definitely did not say anything bad about you at that time. It must be because Ding Chunqiu was extremely angry due to the loss of the Divine Wood King Cauldron, that he said something like that." When free and unfettered saw that the situation had been exposed, he was afraid that Ling Xiao would vent his anger on him, so he quickly waved his hand and explained.

Seeing that, Ling Xiao revealed a playful smile: "Oh? In other words, Ding Chunqiu has deliberately caused trouble for me? "

'Yeah, yeah. It's all because that geezer intentionally caused you trouble. I really don't know anything. free and unfettered nodded his head repeatedly.
