Chapter 276 - Troubleshooting

After sending Yue Lingshan off, Ling Xiao closed the door and started meditating, pondering about what had happened recently.

Ling Xiao had already calculated the warning that Yue Lingshan would give. For the troubles outside, Ling Xiao could choose to avoid them, but for the trouble that came looking for him, he could not avoid it. Otherwise, it would be his cowardly performance.

Towards this kind of person who did not have good eyesight, Ling Xiao would usually not give them any face, but since they were disciples of the same sect, it would be better to act lighter.

Moreover, Ling Xiao's goal was not only for the sword sect to rise, but more importantly, he wanted the entire Huashan Mountain to be led by the sword sect!

And to become a leader, the most important thing was to convince the masses.

At this time, in a neat and tidy building in the Huashan Mountain, in a courtyard house, a few people were gathered. This was the dorm of the disciples of the Huashan Mountain, and most of the ordinary disciples lived here.

The person in the lead was one of the most outstanding young elites, Lu Da.

"Did you hear about the Shijie Linshan going to Ling Xiao's residence?" Lu Da said coldly while looking at the crowd.

When everyone heard this, they nodded their heads vigorously in response, "I heard that it is indeed true."

Originally, when Yue Lingshan was bringing food to Ling Xiao, he had already been seen by the disciples of the Huashan Mountain. Basically, as long as Yue Lingshan appeared anywhere, there would be traces of them.

After all, they did not have Yue Lingshan's backing and did not dare to act rashly.

However, Ling Xiao's residence had been in a desolate place for a long time, and if Ling Xiao was not there, it would be an empty palace. As for the seniors of the sword sect, they would naturally not take it seriously, as well.

That was why they dared to follow Yue Lingshan like a dog.

"This Ling Xiao is truly daring, to actually let the Shijie Linshan send him food, I'm afraid he's tired of living!" Lu Da said angrily.

"That's right, it's just that we have good luck. We won a battle against the Shijie Linshan, yet you dare to give such orders. You truly have the guts to eat a bear heart and leopard's guts." One of the Huashan Mountain disciple waved her fist and said angrily.

As for the Huashan Mountain disciples beside him, they were also huffing and puffing. It seemed like Yue Lingshan's action of giving them food had made him offend many people in an instant.

After Lu Da looked around at the crowd, he said with a righteous tone: "Now that the Eldest Brother is no longer here, we cannot neglect it. We must not weaken his reputation."

"That's right, the Shijie Linshan is destined to be the Eldest Brother, we cannot let Ling Xiao have the chance." Another Huashan Mountain disciple chimed in.

The Eldest Brother that they spoke of was the one with the greatest reputation and the strongest strength amongst the disciples of Huashan Mountain, Linghu Chong.

Although in the eyes of the disciples of Huashan Mountain, Yue Lingshan was their goddess, no one dared to fight for her, because no one would dare challenge her with her presence.

Over time, everyone gradually changed from fear to support towards Hu Chong. From this, it could be seen how high Hu Chong's position in Huashan Mountain was.

"So, we can't let Ling Xiao continue to be so arrogant, who is willing to come with me and teach him a lesson?" Lu Da asked loudly as he looked at the crowd.

When they heard Lu Da's question, the originally noisy crowd now lowered their heads. It was as if they no longer had the same enmity as before.

Seeing this scene, Lu Da could not help but scold, "A bunch of useless fellows. Eldest Brother usually treats you guys so well, but in the end, when they encounter this kind of thing, they are all cowards here."

Everyone still kept their heads down, not daring to utter a single word in response to Lu Da's question.

Seeing this, Lu Da knew that it was useless to continue, so he could only use Hu Chong's name.

"If you guys don't come with me, once Eldest Brother returns, I will definitely tell him about this matter and let him know what kind of heartless and ungrateful people he has been taking care of so carefully!" Lu Da looked at the crowd and said with a fierce face: "You should all know how much Eldest Brother likes Shijie Linshan!"

Sure enough, when Lu Da mentioned Hu Chong's name, these people immediately became spirited. Each and every one of them stood up straight and looked at Lu Da with shining eyes.

Seeing this scene, Lu Da smiled in satisfaction, "That's more like it. As long as we act together and fight for Eldest Brother, at that time, I will definitely praise you in front of him."

Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up, and the atmosphere became much more lively.

Seeing that these people had been successfully duped by him, Lu Da smiled happily.

At this time, one of the Huashan Mountain disciples suddenly asked: "Senior Brother Lu, your strength is outstanding, other than the Eldest Brother, it means that you have a reputation in the Huashan Mountain, if you can defeat Ling Xiao alone, wouldn't your reputation skyrocket? Perhaps she can even get the favor of the Shijie Linshan. "

Hearing this, Lu Da immediately scolded: "What nonsense are you spouting, how can I compete with the Eldest Brother for the Shijie Linshan? Furthermore, the reason why I came to talk to you all about this is because I hope that you all can obtain the trust of the Eldest Brother. In the future, if the Eldest Brother becomes the successor to the Huashan Mountain, we will all be able to soar into the heavens!"

Hearing Lu Dazhi's resounding and forceful reply, everyone clapped and cheered, "Senior Martial Brother Lu is really great. To think that he would consider us like this, it's really touching!"

Lu Da smiled as he waved his hand and said: "Although you are my junior brothers, in my heart, you are all my brothers. I naturally have to be nicer to you."

"Alright, go back and prepare. Tomorrow, come with me to teach that brat Ling Xiao a lesson!" Lu Da said.

"Yes, Senior Martial Brother Lu!" Everyone answered in unison and then went back to their own rooms.

Looking at the departing backs of the crowd, Lu Da could not help but chuckle. He thought to himself, these people are really simple-minded.

He had watched Ling Xiao and Yue Lingshan's match before, and he knew that if he were to fight Ling Xiao one on one, he would definitely lose very miserably. That was why he wanted to bring a few more people with him to prevent future troubles.

On the second day, Lu Da came to the courtyard to wait. Soon, the disciples that he met last night all appeared and gathered together.

"Let's go, we'll teach this brat Ling Xiao a lesson!" Lu Da, with six disciples, headed towards Ling Xiao's residence with full confidence.

At this time, Ling Xiao was in the front of the house practicing a combination technique in an open area, when suddenly, his eyebrows twitched and he stopped.
