Chapter 244 - Gathering of the crowd for mercy
Hearing Ling Xiao's words, Li Qiushui was immediately speechless. It was one thing for them to have chosen to group up against the weaker thirty-six holes, but this time, facing the stronger seventy-two islands, they were nothing to him.
"Sect Leader Ling, come one at a time. Although there are a lot of islands here, their residences are very recognizable. As long as there are houses on the island, there will be people on the island." Li Qiushui said.
"Oh? "That's not bad. We don't need to look around one by one. Let's go." With that, Ling Xiao prepared to leave.
Seeing that, Li Qiushui immediately spoke up: Sect Leader Ling, let's find a boat first. The area is very wide, if we want to use the lightness exercise to move, it's not that convenient, it would consume too much Qi.
Li Qiushui knew that Ling Xiao would not treat these people so gently, so she was worried about Ling Xiao's internal energy and physical strength.
After hearing that, Ling Xiao laughed out loud. "These people are not meant for me to be careful, you don't need to use the boat, just grab onto my hand."
After he finished speaking, Ling Xiao pulled Li Qiushui into his embrace and wrapped his arms around his waist. Feeling the softness of Li Qiushui's body, Ling Xiao laughed with satisfaction.
The sudden situation caused Li Qiushui's face to turn red, she felt Ling Xiao's strong and hard body, causing her heart to heat up, and then she subconsciously grabbed onto Ling Xiao's arm.
Activating the lightness exercise, Ling Xiao hugged Li Qiushui and stomped countless of ripples on the surface of the lake.
After entering the first island, Ling Xiao turned and said to Li Qiushui: "Wait for me here."
With that said, Ling Xiao headed back to the island.
Li Qiushui was thinking about how Ling Xiao would deal with that person, but she was startled by the sound of an extremely loud explosion.
"Boom!" With a loud noise, a small hill on the island that was initially shattered with a loud bang before falling to the ground with a loud crash, turning into countless of broken stones.
After that, Ling Xiao who was completely unharmed slowly walked out.
"Sect Leader Ling, what happened inside?" Li Qiushui was shocked.
Ling Xiao patted the fine dust on his body, and said indifferently: "It was just a slap, I never thought that it would be so powerful."
Li Qiushui didn't know that Ling Xiao treated this place as a place to practice.
But when Ling Xiao's words entered Li Qiushui's ears, it changed its flavor, scaring him so much that he sucked in a breath of cold air.
To think that a single slap could be this powerful, wouldn't the people on this island have turned into minced meat?
"Let's go. Next." Ling Xiao ignored the dumbstruck Li Qiushui and directly embraced him, then activated the lightness exercise once again.
Just like this, Ling Xiao conquered fifteen islands in a row, all for the sake of violence.
Every time there was an earth-shaking explosion, the calm on the surface of the lake was completely broken. In that moment, the remaining people all knew that a God of Slaughter had arrived.
It was unknown from which island, what Ling Xiao had encountered several times in a row was people heading towards the air above the island.
"What's going on? Could it be that they can leave?" Ling Xiao asked in confusion.
The shock on Li Qiushui's face had not calmed down since the first island. Only after hearing Ling Xiao's question did he recover and reply: "Sect Leader Ling, they definitely do not dare to leave this lake, because Life and Death Talisman are restricting them. The only possibility is that they all ran away in fear."
"Since they cannot leave this lake, they must be heading towards the back. I want to see where they can retreat to." Ling Xiao let out a cold laugh, and rushed to the island behind them.
In the following islands, Ling Xiao only found a few second and third rate experts. These people didn't even notice Ling Xiao's arrival and directly died in the midst of shattered rocks.
After arriving at the last island, when Ling Xiao saw that there were more than ten people gathered on the small island, he could not help but raise his eyebrows. "What are you all doing, preparing to gang up on me?"
The man in the lead took a step forward, looked at Ling Xiao and cupped his fists and said: "Sect Master Ling, please forgive us for our ignorance, and didn't recognize you in advance.
Hearing this, Ling Xiao couldn't help but laugh. These words sounded strange, but in reality, it wasn't them who made the first move, but himself.
"If you have something to say, then just say it. There's no need to beat around the bush here. I still have things to do, so I don't have time to listen to your nonsense." Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows and said.
Hearing that, the man cupped his fists once again and said: "We knew we were not Sect Master Ling's match, so after we detected your attack in advance, we fled the island first and gathered together. Our goal was not to fight with Sect Master Ling, but to seek help."
Hearing this, Ling Xiao couldn't help but laugh. "Oh? "To be able to detect my attack in advance, it seems you all are quite capable."
"It can't be that you sensed it, right? It's because the commotion caused by you in Sect Leader Ling was too big." Looking at Ling Xiao's clueless expression, Li Qiushui said helplessly in his heart.
"Say it, what do you want to ask for?" Ling Xiao also knew that these remaining people were somewhat capable, otherwise they wouldn't have gathered together to think of a way to escape. Only those newbies who didn't know anything would continue to stay on the island to wait for death.
"If the Tianshan infantile granny had not left those Life and Death Talisman in our bodies, we would not have worked so hard for her. Because of the Life and Death Talisman, we were unable to leave this lake, and we hoped that the Sect Master Ling could save us." After the person in the lead finished speaking, he directly kneeled down on the ground, and the others behind him also followed suit.
Seeing this scene, Ling Xiao quietly watched for a while. He had originally wanted to take this group of people in, because out of the thirty-six cave seventy-two islands, only this group of people with a little more than a dozen remaining had some ability.
Seeing that Ling Xiao did not answer them, everyone was extremely nervous, because whether they lived or died all depended on Ling Xiao's answer.
"I can, but I will save your lives. It's just that you have left the Jianghu for too long, isolated from the world for such a long period of time. Where do you plan to go after you leave this place?" Ling Xiao looked at the crowd and asked.
Facing Ling Xiao's question, everyone was stunned. They obviously did not expect Ling Xiao to ask this question and did not know how to answer.
Ling Xiao was not in a hurry either, if these people could not be used by him, then saving them would not have much meaning. On the contrary, Ling Xiao would not take the initiative to tell them about his subordinates, which would be equivalent to changing them to a different place and locking them up.
After a while, a person raised his hand and said: "Sect Master Ling, if you do not mind, I am willing to follow you!"
