Chapter 14874 I'm Betting I Won't Die
Faced with Xiang Ying's provocation, Ling Xiao didn't hesitate for a moment and said, "I bet I won't die!"
Although Xiang Ying is powerful, he has too many ways to protect himself. Moreover, the purpose of this trip is to find someone to deal with Xiang Ying, so that he can survive better.
die?
nonexistent!
"You're quite confident, aren't you? In that case, I'll bet you're dead!"
Xiang Ying spoke casually, but the fleeting killing intent he exuded was extremely chilling.
Ling Xiao smiled and said, "Since it's a bet, there has to be a stake."
Xiang Ying looked at Ling Xiao with disdain: "You're really confident, aren't you? But I'm more confident than you. You name the stakes, I'm not going to lose anyway, so go ahead and bet!"
Ling Xiao's lips curled into a cunning smile: "Senior Xiang Ying, I am, after all, the number one person below the eight great experts. You can't go back on your word. If I am not killed today, you must not attack me again for a year, nor can you attack the Holy Rune Academy. Moreover, you must promise to help me twice. No matter what, you cannot refuse!"
Xiang Ying frowned; she felt like she had been tricked by Ling Xiao.
However, she really couldn't think of any reason why Ling Xiao was still alive today. In this chaotic martial world, apart from the eight powerful figures, no one could save Ling Xiao's life in her hands.
"What if you die?"
She couldn't help but ask.
Ling Xiao smiled, quite self-righteously: "Senior, I'm already dead, what more do you want from me? Won't everything on me be yours in the end? Are you suggesting I bring you back to life and then ask you to grant me some more requests?"
"You're really shameless!"
Xiang Ying cursed irritably, "In all my years of cultivation, I've never seen anyone like you. You're utterly shameless!"
Ling Xiao chuckled: "Senior, you can't say that. If you wanted to kill me, it would be as easy as crushing an ant. This gamble is a trap for me, but for you, it's a sure win, isn't it?"
"hehe!"
Xiang Ying chuckled coldly, "You're quite the smooth talker. I accept this bet. I really want to see how you manage to escape my grasp."
Ling Xiao smiled, then suddenly frowned: "Senior, you wouldn't be as shameless as me, would you? Although I'm thick-skinned, I always keep my promises. What about you? Do you regret it afterward?"
Xiang Ying suddenly revealed a terrifying killing intent, and said coldly with an arrogant tone, "Who do you think you are? Although I, Xiang Ying, am a woman, my word is my bond! My promise is my oath!"
"it is good!"
Ling Xiao said loudly, "Since Senior Xiang Ying says so, I will believe you. If you really go back on your word, then I'll just be unlucky. After all, I can't beat you, and I can't possibly ask you to do something you don't want to do, even if you made a promise."
"Who are you trying to imply?" Xiang Ying glared at Ling Xiao. "Don't worry about me. I keep my word. If you manage to escape death today, I will definitely keep my promise!"
Ling Xiao stopped wasting words. Xiang Ying had already gone this far; if he pressed her any further, she might really kill him, since this woman's personality wasn't exactly rational.
He suddenly accelerated and flew towards his target.
At this moment, Xia Ming's voice rang in Ling Xiao's mind again: "Are you going to go to Yue Nu? Well, only someone like Yue Nu would not care about Xiang Ying. She could probably kill Xiang Ying in one move."
Ling Xiao smiled bitterly. If he could find Yue Nu, he would have gone to find her long ago. Why were the two of them separated by such a great distance?
The Moon Maiden is indeed powerful, but she no longer wreaks havoc in the martial world. At most, she sends a projection to the Realm of Annihilation to help protect its safety.
What he was looking for was someone else, someone who could defeat Xiang Ying and make Xiang Ying obediently fulfill his promise.
Although Xiang Ying didn't know who Ling Xiao was going to see, she was very interested. This guy was a battle maniac, and if there was someone stronger to challenge, she would give it a try even if she couldn't beat them.
About an hour later, Lingxiao finally stopped.
Xiang Ying looked around curiously and suddenly realized where he was.
"The Underworld Town! You actually brought me to this place? Could it be that the helper you're looking for is actually the mayor of the Underworld Town?"
Aside from the town mayor of the underworld town, Xiang Ying couldn't think of anyone else who could be her opponent. Although the Black and White Impermanence were also very strong, even if they joined forces, they might not be her match, unless the town mayor personally intervened.
Ling Xiao did not answer the question.
He looked at the dark portal not far away; once he stepped through there, he would enter the underworld town.
The mayor of the underworld town is none other than Xiao Lianzhu.
Xiao Lianzhu, by a narrow margin, is his fiancée.
Although he wasn't sure if the Xiao Lianzhu of today was the same as the Xiao Lianzhu of the past, he still had to give it a try. If Xiao Lianzhu hadn't changed, then many things would become much simpler.
He didn't come here before because he was afraid things would have changed, afraid that Xiao Lianzhu would no longer remember him, afraid that Xiao Lianzhu would no longer be the same Zhu'er she once was.
But today, he had no choice. He was threatened by Xiang Ying, and if he didn't find someone who could suppress Xiang Ying, he would have to become a fugitive.
He was unwilling to give up, after all, he had too many attachments to this place.
I came here today for two reasons: firstly, to check if Xiao Lianzhu is safe, and secondly, to confirm whether she is still the same Xiao Lianzhu she used to be.
Although he was somewhat worried, deep down he still held onto a strong expectation, hoping that he would see the Xiao Lianzhu from before, and not someone else, or an empty shell with someone else's memories.
"I see, I see. No wonder you were so confident that I couldn't kill you and that you would survive today! If your backer is the town mayor, then I really can't kill you!"
Xiang Ying suddenly laughed. "But are you really sure that the ruthless, cruel, and cold-blooded mayor of that underworld town will come to your aid? Or is it just wishful thinking on your part?"
Ling Xiao remained silent, because even he himself did not know whether Xiao Lianzhu would take action for him. He had come today to confirm this.
He looked up at the dark portal, took a deep breath, and felt a little nervous, even a little sad.
A playful smile suddenly appeared on Xiang Ying's lips: "You and that Xiao Lianzhu seem to have a story. Did that girl abandon you after regaining her past memories? A classic case of starting something and then abandoning it."
Ling Xiao shook his head: "Rather than asking her for help, I want to confirm whether the Xiao Lianzhu I know still exists. If she doesn't, I will definitely find her. Even if she is just a memory that shouldn't exist for someone else, she is still a living family member to me!"
"As for relying on her to survive? That's unnecessary. If I want to live, not even the eight strongest experts could kill me, let alone you!"
Seeing Ling Xiao's confident and domineering demeanor, Xiang Ying was suddenly stunned.
