Chapter 224 - Accession to the Beggar Gangs

"Your story isn't bad, but it doesn't matter whether what you say is true or not." Ling Xiao said as he twisted his wrist.

Sensing the powerful aura that was gradually being emitted from Ling Xiao's body, free and unfettered's clothes were instantly drenched in cold sweat.

He wanted to say something, but no sound came out of his mouth.

Suddenly, a cold liquid flowed down from free and unfettered's neck. free and unfettered reached out and touched his neck subconsciously, it was fresh blood, and at the same time, it was Ling Xiao's hand that was holding onto his neck.

With the activation of the microstep, Ling Xiao instantly appeared in front of free and unfettered, and then, extended his hand out and directly snapped his throat.

"If you want to blame anyone, blame Old dog Ding. This kind of sinister technique should never have appeared in this world, and you shouldn't have provoked me either." Ling Xiao coldly said as he looked at free and unfettered's helpless and fearful eyes.

After having his throat strangled by Ling Xiao, before free and unfettered could even struggle for a few moments, its head tilted to the side and its body went limp, and it left the world with its eyes open. It was an extremely painful death, but of course, it was still better than being beaten to death by Ding Chunqiu.

It was precisely in order to punish free and unfettered for his betrayal and lies, that Ling Xiao acted so cruelly.

After free and unfettered Zi died, the remaining astrologer disciples immediately went into an uproar, they all turned to run, they knew, there was no one left to protect them, astrologer was also done for.

However, the reason why Ling Xiao rushed over to the astrologer in such a hurry was to eliminate everyone in the astrologer.

The microstep activated once again. This time, Ling Xiao did not hold back, his speed increased to his fastest, his moves were also very accurate, and every person died from one hit.

In just an incense's time, the astrologer with hundreds of people had been completely wiped out.

Looking at the blood flowing like rivers on the ground, Ling Xiao's expression was indifferent. After carefully inspecting it once more, and discovering that all of them were dead, he finally lifted his leg and prepared to leave.

However, the moment he turned around, Ling Xiao saw a little boy in white clothes sitting on the ground, trembling non-stop, with a bloodless look on his face.

Seeing that, Ling Xiao could not help but raise his eyebrows, he did not understand why such a young child would appear in astrologer.

Walking slowly over, the little boy didn't run away. He was probably too weak to move.

"You are also a disciple of the astrologer?" Ling Xiao looked down at the little boy and asked.

The little boy looked at Ling Xiao with dull eyes, and only after a long while did he gently nod his head.

Seeing that, Ling Xiao could not help but frown. He did not want to kill children, but if the other party was also a disciple of the astrologer and trained in the Great Art of Attraction, he could only kill them.

This was because once the Art of Attraction began, there was no way back. One would have to continuously absorb Miasma for the rest of their lives in order to barely survive. Otherwise, the poison that had been accumulating in their bodies would counterattack.

This was what was meant by 'nourishing the poison with poison, using poison to counteract poison'.

However, just as Ling Xiao was about to kill the little boy with a palm, giving him a quick death, he suddenly stopped.

This was because Ling Xiao did not detect any trace of maliciousness from the boy's body.

"What technique did you come to astrologer to learn?" Ling Xiao asked with a serious expression.

If the little boy had learned the Great Art of Absorption, then he would have been able to easily sense it with Ling Xiao's perception, even though he had only just come into contact with it. Otherwise, there was only one possibility, and that was that the boy had not learned the Great Art of Absorption yet.

The little boy finally reacted, and then replied timidly: "I haven't cultivated the technique yet, I'm only training my body and able to read."

"Literacy? What book are you reading? " Ling Xiao asked.

"Art of Attraction." "No," the boy answered truthfully, or he couldn't come up with any other lies.

Hearing that, Ling Xiao heaved a sigh of relief, it seems his guess was right, the little boy did not practice the Great Art of Absorption.

"You have a complete absorption technique?" Ling Xiao asked again.

The little boy nodded and pointed to a hall not far away. He said, "There's a Scripture Pavilion in there. The books I learned are all in there."

After hearing this, Ling Xiao asked again: "You are only one of them, what about the others?"

The little boy pointed to the hall again, "They were all inside, and none of them came out. I was the only one who ran out."

"Let's go find them." With that said, Ling Xiao turned and walked towards the palace.

The little boy hesitated for a moment before deciding to follow.

After entering the Main Hall, Ling Xiao looked around and found a place that resembled a private school. In the middle of the Main Hall, there were many small tables, and on them, there was still some ink and paper that wasn't finished writing.

"Come out, all of you can't escape from my eyes." Ling Xiao looked at the empty Great Hall, and knew that they were all hiding, and shouted loudly.

Ling Xiao's voice was sonorous and powerful, resounding through the entire great hall, like a great bell.

Maybe it was because they were scared, but all the children walked out in fear and stood together.

Ling Xiao looked at these children, and said indifferently: "Did all of you come of your own free will?"

All the children shook their heads.

Seeing this scene, Ling Xiao said loudly, "From today onwards, all of you are free to go home."

But after Ling Xiao finished speaking, no one answered him, no one had any happy expression, as though they were not interested in going home at all.

At this time, the first boy who met Ling Xiao spoke up, "We are all orphans. Without our parents, even if we have parents, we were killed by the people from the astrologer."

As the boy spoke the truth, the hall was immediately filled with weeping. It might have touched upon the memories and missed their parents.

"You have nowhere else to go, right?" Ling Xiao asked loudly.

When the children heard this, they all nodded their heads.

"Since that's the case, are you willing to come to Beggar Gangs?" Ling Xiao asked again.

If they were homeless orphans, Ling Xiao would take them in as long as they agreed.

"Is that really possible?" It was even the little boy he met for the first time. He saw Ling Xiao's power, and from the bottom of his heart, he was grateful that Ling Xiao had cleared out the astrologer.

Ling Xiao revealed a faint smile, nodded and said: "Of course it's true, Beggar Gangs is willing to take care of you."

"Great, I am willing to go to Beggar Gangs!" The little boy took the lead.

Under the lead of this little boy, the other children all raised their hands, indicating that they wanted to join Beggar Gangs.
