C11 One Palm Strike
Sensing Ning Wuque's killing intent, Xue Yang's expression changed slightly, and he stared at Hsiao Wenjie and shouted, "Hsiao Wenjie, stop talking nonsense. Since when have I ever threatened you? It was clearly you who killed my junior brother from the Spirit Sword Peak, yet you still dare to quibble."
He absolutely could not admit to such a thing, or else both he and the Spirit Sword Peak would be severely punished.
Ning Wuque looked coldly at Xue Yang and asked Hsiao Wenjie, "Wen Jie, is what you said true?"
"What this disciple said is the truth." Hsiao Wenjie said with a firm gaze.
Since he did not accept Xue Yang's threat, then he had to bravely tell the truth. Only then would he have a chance of survival.
Lee Xunhuan said lightly: "No matter what, Hsiao Wenjie killed two of my Spirit Sword Peak's disciples, so this matter can't be faked. As for who wanted to kill them and steal their treasures, there are different explanations. It's hard to decide."
Xue Yang was his disciple, he knew Xue Yang's personality, what Hsiao Wenjie said should be the truth.
However, Xue Yang was still his disciple after all. Furthermore, this matter concerned the reputation of the Spirit Sword Peak, so he could not admit it.
Ning Wuque stared at Lee Xunhuan and said, "Peak Master Li, your disciple Xue Yang has injured my Spirit Treasure Peak's disciples to such an extent. How should he be punished?"
It was very easy to deal with one Xue Yang, but the one who was truly difficult to deal with was that old fox, Lee Xunhuan.
Lee Xunhuan replied indifferently: "Xue Yang was indeed a bit impulsive in this matter. I will punish him well, but if Hsiao Wenjie kills a disciple of my Spirit Sword Peak for the treasure, then it is only natural that he kills Hsiao Wenjie."
It was obvious that he did not plan to hand Xue Yang over to Ning Wuque. If Xue Yang went to the Flawless Peak, who knew how much suffering he would suffer, and he might even admit the truth under Ning Wuque's interrogation.
"Xue Yang, you dare to do what you don't dare to do. You are not a real man!" Seeing how shameless everyone on the Spirit Sword Peak was, Hsiao Wenjie fumed with anger. Pointing at Xue Yang, he said in grief and indignation.
If it wasn't for the worry that if he killed him directly, Ning Wuque would be furious, Xue Yang would definitely kill him to prevent him from telling the truth, instead of using his family to threaten him not to tell the truth.
Xue Yang was a complete despicable villain.
"Hsiao Wenjie, you were the one who killed him and stole his treasure. I was only teaching you a lesson for my dead junior brothers. You are not a real man." Xue Yang was a little panicked in his heart, but on the surface, he was not scared at all.
He knew that he could not show his guilty side. He could not admit it even if he was beaten to death. Otherwise, he might really be beaten to death by Ning Wuque in a fit of anger.
Lee Xunhuan looked at Ning Wuque and said, "The two of them have different excuses, and I believe that anyone's words will make the other feel unfair, so we might as well just let this matter go. How about it?"
As for Hsiao Wenjie, it was hard for him to even take a look. A mere Great Sun Stage disciple was not even worthy of his attention.
Ning Wuque took a step towards Xue Yang and the other disciples of the Spirit Sword Peak, and the pressure of his spiritual energy was released even further as he said, "Could it be that my Flawless Peak disciples have been bullied for nothing?"
He believed that Hsiao Wenjie would not do anything that would harm his fellow disciples, so there was a high chance that this matter was just as Hsiao Wenjie had said. It was the Spirit Sword Peak that wanted to kill him and steal his treasure, and they even wanted to silence him!
"Ning Wuque, don't think that I'm afraid of you. I just don't want this matter to get out of hand. If it really gets out of hand, it won't be good for your Flawless Peak. After all, it is a fact that Hsiao Wenjie killed two of my Spirit Sword Peak's disciples." Lee Xunhuan spoke coldly. She also released a tyrannical spiritual pressure that clashed with Ning Wuque's spiritual pressure, causing the airflow to twist.
In terms of strength, he was a longtime Peak Master of the Heavenly Questions Sect, and was confident that he would not be weaker than Ning Wuque, who had only become a Peak Master ten years ago.
If they really fought, he would not be afraid!
Just as the momentum of the two sides was getting stronger and stronger, Lin Yansheng suddenly remembered that there should have been a lot of Spirit Pills in his wooden house, so he asked, "Lee Qiang, did you take my Spirit Pill?"
Since Lee Qiang had caught Xiao Qi here, he didn't believe that Lee Qiang would not have any ulterior motives when he saw so many Spirit Pills.
Lee Qiang, whose face was swollen, panicked slightly when he heard this. He forced himself to calm down and said, "I didn't take your Spirit Pill. Don't slander me."
In a place like this where even Peak Masters were present, if he admitted that he had taken the Spirit Pill, he probably wouldn't have a good time.
"There are ten thousand Spirit Pills in my wooden hut. If they disappear, you will be the one to take them!" Lin Yansheng's mouth curled up into a cold smile as he said with certainty.
On his shoulder, Xiaoqi stared at Lee Qiang coldly, her eyes filled with disdain and killing intent.
The dignified Divine Beast Phoenix almost got stewed like a chicken. The anger in its heart could be imagined.
Of course, it couldn't be stewed to death, but just thinking about it was enough to make it angry.
"Nonsense! There are only five thousand Spirit Pills!" Lee Qiang said anxiously.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it. Almost everyone present looked at him with a strange gaze.
Lin Yansheng said with a smile on his face, "This time, what else do you have to say? Stealing five thousand of my Spirit Pills, capturing Xiaoqi, compensating me with one hundred thousand Spirit Pills and ten thousand Spirit Stones, and this matter will be settled for the time being, or else..."
He did not finish his sentence, but everyone could feel the threat in his words.
Both Erdan and Shea Kui admired their senior brother for daring to threaten the disciples of the Spirit Sword Peak in front of the Peak Masters of the Spirit Sword Peak.
Who else?
Lee Qiang was a little afraid when he saw Lin Yansheng's smile. He hid beside Xue Yang and Lee Xunhuan, braced himself and said: "I only took five thousand of your Spirit Pills, I will return them to you. As for catching your chicken, you have already beaten it up, what else do you want?"
He believed that with their Peak Master here, Lin Yansheng wouldn't dare to do anything to him.
"Xiao Qi is my partner. Why are you asking me what I want when you attacked my friend?" Lin Yansheng sneered. He rushed forward and appeared in front of Lee Qiang in a flash. He grabbed Lee Qiang's neck with one hand.
Black spiritual energy appeared in his palm. No matter how hard Lee Qiang struggled, he could not break free. He was completely suppressed.
"Don't be too reckless. This is the Spirit Sword Peak!" Xue Yang said coldly as he took out another sword that emitted a sharp sword qi.
This sword could not be compared to the one that Lin Yansheng had shattered previously. It was an Earth Rank magical weapon with extremely powerful power.
Actually, he did not want to make a move. Lin Yansheng's strength was extremely strong. Although Lin Yansheng's cultivation was obviously not as high as his, he was still much stronger than him.
However, Lee Qiang was standing right next to him. Furthermore, this was the Spirit Sword Peak, where more than a hundred pairs of eyes from the disciples of the Spirit Sword Peak were fixated on him, the eldest senior brother of the Spirit Sword Peak. If he did not do anything about it, he would not be able to maintain his reputation in the Spirit Sword Peak in the future.
*Pah!*
With a crisp sound, Xue Yang was sent flying a few meters away along with his sword. At the same time, a clear palm print could be seen on his face.
His mind was a little muddled. Lin Yansheng slapped him in front of everyone?
Lin Yansheng looked at Xue Yang and teased, "Your skin is quite thick. You even hurt my palm a little."
Initially, he was worried that he wouldn't have a reason to beat up Xue Yang, this beast in human form. However, he didn't expect Xue Yang to come up to him by himself, so he could only give him a slap.
