Chapter 2393: Chapter 2396: Sha Tong Tian Severely Wounded: Heiye Wuxing Goes Berserk

The images played by the Photography Beast made Sha Lin unable to remain arrogant.

The actions of the Chief of Purple Immortal Mountain brought shame to the entire Eight Immortals Mountain.

"Well done in killing!"

Heiye Wuguang loudly said: "Sha Tonɡ Tian! Jian Ruchao! Do you have anything to say?"

Jian Ruchao sighed and said: "The Chief of Purple Immortal Mountain, as an elder, committed such disgraceful deeds, Ling Xiao was merely defending himself, not only guiltless, but commendable!"

Originally, he only disliked Ling Xiao a bit; there was no deep-seated hatred between them.

So when this evidence surfaced, he had already decided not to pursue Ling Xiao further.

Otherwise, his authority as the Vice Hall Master of the Inner Hall of Rewarding Good and Punishing Evil would surely be severely questioned.

Even Sha Tonɡ Tian dared not speak for the Chief of Purple Immortal Mountain, for speaking in defense of such a person meant aligning with them.

He could not afford it.

However, he still had to rescue Sha Lin and the others, so he looked at Heiye Wuguang and said: "Heiye Wuguang, Sha Lin made a mistake today, there’s no doubt about that.

But Eight Immortals Mountain cannot fall into war, and you understand this better than anyone.

Sha Lin, Sha Diao, Sha Yu, and Chi Lian—we of the Sha Clan will discipline them strictly, you can rest assured.

After all, we’ve paid a significant price already, isn’t that enough?

Can’t Ling Xiao let them go?"

Sha Tonɡ Tian saying this was already an act of submission.

Since he couldn’t punish Ling Xiao, it was good enough if he could rescue the four he wanted to rescue.

Heiye Wuguang clearly didn’t want to spark a war between the Dark Clan and the Sha Clan either, so he nodded and said: "Sha Tonɡ Tian, since you’ve put it that way, I’ll give you this favor.

However, after what happened, those four will likely harbor deep hatred towards Ling Xiao. If you want them released, they must publicly swear never to harm Ling Xiao.

Otherwise, it would provoke a war between my Dark Clan and the Sha Clan, agreed?

Ling Xiao, what do you think of my proposed solution?"

He hadn’t forgotten Ling Xiao, and to show sufficient respect, he specifically asked his opinion.

"Everything is up to Grand Elder Heiye Wuguang."

Upon hearing Heiye Wuguang willing to assist him, Ling Xiao had already decided to first join the Dark Clan and see what happens.

Maybe this Dark Clan could indeed be the key to further elevating his strength.

"Fine!"

Heiye Wuguang was very pleased because this defiant young man was willing to give him face.

This kid, when displeased, wouldn’t give anyone face; this should even count as an honor.

He then looked at Sha Tonɡ Tian and asked: "What do you think?"

Sha Tonɡ Tian nodded, then looked at Sha Lin and said: "Today’s matter truly was reckless on your part.

Though Black Immortal Mountain may lack vigor, it is also a direct mountain under the Dark Clan, making Sha Clan’s position difficult with such actions.

Make your vow!

"But Grand Elder, that kid bullied too much!"

Sha Lin naturally unwilling to vow.

Because it would mean publicly admitting defeat before everyone.

If he didn’t want to, naturally the other three also wouldn’t want to.

"Sha Lin, do you even refuse to follow my orders?"

Sha Tonɡ Tian was also quite displeased now.

He didn’t want Sha Lin to vow in front of so many people.

But Ling Xiao’s array formation was truly formidable; despite analyzing it for a long time, he couldn’t find any flaws or ways to break it.

Helplessly, this was all he could do.

Otherwise, the lives of Sha Lin and the other three were at risk.

"I’m sorry, Grand Elder, usually I’ll listen to you on anything, but not today. We can’t tarnish the Sha Clan’s reputation!"

Sha Lin forcefully spoke.

"Foolish! If you die at the hands of a disciple who just ascended Upper Eight Immortals Mountain, wouldn’t that bring further shame to Sha Clan?"

Sha Tonɡ Tian was irritated inside, wondering why Sha Lin, usually quite smart, became so muddled today.

"Grand Elder, fear not, utilize the Sha Clan’s might, can it not break this mere array formation?"

A few Sha Clan martial artists behind Sha Tonɡ Tian were also very discontent.

They were unwilling to bow before the Dark Clan.

Even less willing to bow before Ling Xiao.

These people put Sha Tonɡ Tian in a difficult position.

"Grand Elder, if you’re afraid, let us rescue Sha Lin."

Those few Sha Clan martial artists suddenly rushed to the Black Immortal Mountain.

In total, five people, each with a Three Layer Hell Peak cultivation level.

One even had a level slightly above the Three Layer Hell Peak cultivation.

This level had already reached the Chief of Purple Immortal Mountain’s caliber.

"Grand Elder Heiye Wuguang, it’s not that I’m not listening to you, it’s just that these people refuse reconciliation, so don’t blame me!"

Deep down, Ling Xiao really didn’t want this matter resolved.

But he didn’t want to go against Heiye Wuguang.

Yet now, the other side rejected reconciliation first, giving him sufficient reason to strike.

"Kill!"

The terrifying array formation activated instantly, directly annihilating those five Sha Clan martial artists in midair.

Five corpses were thrown out, landing at Sha Tonɡ Tian’s feet.

But that’s not all.

Ling Xiao simultaneously operated the array formation, launching an attack at Sha Lin and others.

Chi Lian and Sha Diao were the first to succumb.

They were the ones with relatively lower cultivation among the four.

Under Ling Xiao’s frenzied assault, they were eventually enveloped by scorching lava and chaotic thunder, heavily injured and collapsed; although not dead yet, if Ling Xiao continued, they’d surely die.

"Stop!"

Sha Tonɡ Tian roared angrily and charged forward.

He absolutely couldn’t allow Sha Lin to be killed.

At this moment, he had no choice but to intervene.

However, a shadow blocked his path.

It was Hei Xianshan Mountain Master, Heiye Wuxing.

"It’s been a long time since I’ve encountered a true opponent, I want to see how much you’ve improved over the years, daring to disregard my Black Immortal Mountain."

Heiye Wuxing looked at Sha Tonɡ Tian with indifference and firmness in his eyes.

"Those who intrude my Black Immortal Mountain today, die!"

"You coward, failing long ago; do you think I’d fear you?"

Sha Tonɡ Tian charged forward.

Yet after three moves, he was directly blown back, collapsing on the ground, convulsing all over.

Though not dead, he was already severely wounded.

Heiye Wuxing remained unscathed.

He stood there with indifference, looking at everyone: "Today, I, Heiye Wuxing, swear here, once I failed to protect my son, but henceforth, anyone daring to harm my disciples Ling Xiao, En Renfenɡ, Feng Ru, shall face their demise!"

If he lacked strength, such words would probably be ignored.

But he was far too powerful.

Sha Tonɡ Tian, such a Grand Elder, couldn’t withstand even three moves under him and ended up severely injured.

"Ling Xiao, hear my command, you needn’t act next, this blade, I shall wield."

He knew that if Ling Xiao truly killed Sha Lin and others, it would certainly cause great trouble.

So he had to do something for his disciple.

As Mountain Master, he hadn’t supported Ling Xiao much before.

Today, Ling Xiao was about to step onto Upper Eight Immortals Mountain, he had to ensure his disciple’s safe departure.

He walked towards Black Immortal Mountain, towards Sha Lin and the others.

His gaze carried a biting murderous intent.
