Chapter 278 - Kindness Reminder
This call of "Martial Uncle" broke the silence of the audience, or perhaps, the silence of the disciples of the Huashan Mountain.
Very quickly, a few other Huashan Mountain disciples also cupped their fists and said: "I ask for Junior Master Ling's guidance!"
Seeing this scene, Lu Da, who was standing to the side, was stunned. He had never thought that something like this would happen.
Previously, he was standing on his side and wanted to fight together with Hu Chong to save some face, but now, he had to ask Ling Xiao for guidance.
"What about you?" Ling Xiao turned his head to look at Lu Da.
Hearing that, Lu Da looked at Ling Xiao hesitantly, and said: "I, why should I believe you, I'm not familiar with you."
"I'm not familiar with it. You actually have the guts to come and find trouble with me. Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you if I get angry?" Ling Xiao said with a cold smile.
When Lu Da heard this, he was momentarily at a loss of words. He did not know how to respond.
"But no one has ever taught me in detail." Lu Da sighed. As a disciple with relatively long experience in Huashan Mountain, he had long been abandoned by Master. Since she did not make much progress, she was naturally not given much attention.
Ling Xiao knew that the Master disciples of the Huashan Mountain were all just some second-rate experts with average strength, naturally, they wouldn't be able to teach others anything. After all, not everyone had the chance to be like Yue Lingshan, who was guided by a Master the moment he was born, and who wasn't like Linghu Chong, who had a unique and outstanding Inherent Skill as his foundation.
"No wonder all of you were so weak, and even wishfully wanted to find trouble with me. To be honest, when I fought with Yue Lingshan that day, I was already lenient. Otherwise, she would have lost even faster." Ling Xiao said indifferently with both his hands behind his back.
Hearing that, the crowd went into an uproar, they clearly did not expect Ling Xiao to actually hold back, but after thinking about it, if they were to face Ling Xiao, they would not be able to win in one move, and would very quickly be relieved.
"Martial Uncle Ling, we also do not wish to continue doing nothing. I hope that Martial Uncle Ling can guide us more." One of the Huashan Mountain disciple took a step forward and cupped her fist and asked.
Soon after, other people also came forward to clasp their fists and request for guidance. Lu Da hesitated for a moment, but he also forced himself to clasp his fists and said, "Please instruct me, Martial Uncle Ling."
Seeing this, Ling Xiao laughed lightly, nodded and said: "Seeing your upright attitudes, I will let bygones be bygones. Stand still, I will tell you each what is lacking, one by one."
Although Ling Xiao was not very old, his strength was high and his eyes were sharp. With just a few glances, he could deduce their true strength and shortcomings from their movements.
Very quickly, Ling Xiao gave everyone a very detailed analysis and guidance.
"Alright, I'll tell you guys this much for now. Although your aptitude is average, the height that you can reach far exceeds your current position. As long as you go back and follow my instructions, you will have more practice. In less than half a month, you will have a qualitative increase compared to what you are right now." Ling Xiao looked at the crowd and said confidently.
Hearing this, everyone kept thanking him with excited and happy smiles on their faces. After all, they were all eager to obtain power, and only then would they have a chance to get the favor of their seniors and Master.
After saying their goodbyes, all of the Huashan Mountain disciples left. In the end, only Lu Da was left.
"What else do you want?" Seeing that, Ling Xiao could not help but raise his eyebrows and ask.
Lu Da shook his head and said: "I do not have anything else. The reason I came to find trouble with you is also because I want to do a good job in front of Eldest Brother and see if I can get something good out of it. Now that I know my wrongs, I sincerely apologize to you, I will not make the same mistake again in the future."
"If it is just an apology, then we will stop here. I am not willing to waste too much time on this. Humans are not like sages. As long as it is changed, it is fine." Ling Xiao said.
Thank you for your leniency, Junior Master Ling. The reason why I stayed, is to remind you that Eldest Brother will be back in a few days. I am worried that Eldest Brother will come and find trouble with you because of Shijie Linshan. Lu Da voiced his worries.
Although Lu Da had yet to say that he would leave Ling Hu and stand by Ling Xiao's side, because of Ling Xiao's actions, Lu Da had already started to feel grateful towards Ling Xiao, and naturally wanted to repay him.
"So it's this matter. I've also heard that Linghu Chong is a very talented person and has reached the realm of a First Rated Expert at such a young age. It is indeed admirable, but you don't have to worry too much. I have my own strategies." Ling Xiao laughed faintly.
Seeing that Ling Xiao was not the least bit anxious, Lu Da also had his own suspicions in his heart. Could it be that Ling Xiao could defeat Linghu Chong?
After all, Yue Lingshan only had the strength of a Second Rated Warrior, which was still a far cry from a First Rated Warrior. Therefore, the fact that Ling Xiao could defeat Yue Lingshan did not mean that he could defeat Linghu Chong.
"I have said what I should say. I hope that uncle master Ling can remain safe and sound. Thank you for your guidance, uncle master Ling. Farewell!" Lu Da bowed to Ling Xiao and turned to leave.
After Lu Da opened up and at a place not far from Ling Xiao's residence, a Huashan Mountain disciple who was hiding in a dark corner also left and returned to Ning Zhongze's side, telling him everything that had happened here.
"These people entered Ling Xiao's residence and then safely left?" Ning Zhong, on the other hand, was very curious after hearing this.
"Yes, Madam. No one showed any signs of being injured. They all came out by themselves. Moreover, their expressions were relaxed. Only Lu Da was in a slightly sorry state, and his clothes were slightly dirty." The Huashan Mountain disciple who reported replied respectfully.
"Looks like this Lu Da had angered Ling Xiao, which was why he was in such a sorry state. I never thought that this child, Ling Xiao, would actually have a kind heart, facing the provocation from so many people, he did not take revenge." Ning Zhong smiled in satisfaction.
Soon after, Ning Zhong thought of something and asked: "Are you sure Ling Xiao is alright?"
"It's really nothing, the other brothers saw it with their own eyes. After Lu Da left, Ling Xiao continued to train in his martial arts, it's just that we can't understand his moves, we don't know where he found this martial art." The Huashan Mountain disciple who reported the news replied.
Hearing this, Ning Zhong didn't care about it at all. Instead, he covered his mouth and laughed, "Such a broad-minded and hardworking young man. If he really does have any achievements in the future, it would be suitable for Shan'er to follow him."
"As for what kind of martial arts Ling Xiao is practising, there's no need for you to worry. After all, the Mount Hua Sword Sect has its own unique technique, it's just that the sword sect has fallen and disappeared for a period of time. That's why you all feel unfamiliar with it, just keep watching and don't let anything dangerous happen to Ling Xiao." Ning Zhongze instructed.
