Chapter 297 - Fighting one against two

Facing Ling Xiao who was concealing his strong strength, Ning Zhong, on the other hand, saw hope but also felt nervous.

"Since our opponents are two first-rate experts, we must do something. Otherwise, Ling Xiao might not be able to contend against them, and it will not be a simple matter of one more." Ning Zhong began to worry again.

Hearing that, Yue Lingshan looked around at the surroundings, and said regretfully: "But we don't have enough strength, if I wasn't greedy for fun, and started to practice properly, I might not be like this right now, and could only watch from the sidelines."

"Please believe in Junior Master Ling. I feel that he is not a person who likes to show off. I believe in him, he will definitely be able to save Huashan Mountain." At this time, Lu Da stood up and said with a determined look in his eyes.

At the same time, a few Huashan Mountain disciples who had interacted with Ling Xiao also stood forward and said, "We all believe that Junior Master Ling can save us."

Seeing the firm expressions in these Huashan Mountain disciples' eyes, Ning Zhong knew that they were definitely not desperate and in desperate straits, but had truly believed in Ling Xiao. This kind of trust was as if they had already deeply rooted their faith in him after following him for many years.

What exactly did Ling Xiao do that could actually make them choose to trust Ling Xiao so unconditionally?

"How much do you know about Ling Xiao?" Ning Zhongze asked curiously.

Lu Da bowed to Ning Zhong, and said: "Reporting to Lady Ning, a majority of us Huashan Mountain disciples have been taught by Martial Uncle Ling. Without exception, all of us flew up high, and many of the Huashan Mountain disciples had passed the bottleneck that we had been stuck in for a long time because of Martial Uncle Ling's guidance."

"Yes, this is something that our Master and our Eldest Brother have never been able to achieve, but Martial Uncle Ling has done it one by one. He is targeting different disciples with different guidance methods, he is really too powerful, he is simply a peerless expert who doesn't care about the affairs of the world!" Those Huashan Mountain disciples who had benefited from Ling Xiao all nodded and agreed.

After hearing this, the rest of the Huashan Mountain disciples who had not come into contact with Ling Xiao and the seniors and deacons of the Huashan Mountain, all cast their gazes towards the nearby Ling Xiao. They could see the glimmer of hope that gradually lit up in their eyes.

Some held faith in Ling Xiao, and some even had the intention to follow him.

Now that the Huashan Mountain Sect had caused Hu Chong to disappear from the face of the earth, Yue Buqun was nowhere to be seen, like a group of dragons without a leader, people who had lost their guidance, if it were not for Ning Zhong who took the initiative to stand up, facing the two ultimate experts, Feng Buping and Cheng Xie, the Huashan Mountain Sect would not have been able to hold on.

And now, they had found the person who allowed them to regain their confidence, was precisely the Ling Xiao before their eyes.

Seeing that Ling Xiao was able to block his attack so easily, Cheng Xian You felt that his body was somewhat unstable and the angry look on his face instantly disappeared, followed by heaviness and vigilance.

If he had only blocked his attack, Cheng Xie would have been shocked that Ling Xiao had hidden his true strength. But from the looks of it, not only was Ling Xiao defending and attacking him secretly, he had also injected some powerful hidden force into his meridians.

If it weren't for Cheng Xie who was an old Jianghu, most of her internal energy would have been consumed by this hidden force when she reacted at the fastest speed. The worst case scenario would have directly injured her own core, which was her Dantian.

Seeing that Cheng Que didn't seem to be normal, Feng Buping, who knew him very well, immediately knew that things weren't that simple, and thus hurried to his side, becoming vigilant.

"Truly unexpected. I originally thought you were only a genius that the school head praised, but I never would have thought that you weren't an ordinary genius." Cheng You maintained his composure as he resisted the hidden energy Ling Xiao was releasing. He pretended to be calm as he looked at Ling Xiao and said.

"I am very happy to be praised by you, senior. I think this is a form of acknowledgement from you." Ling Xiao said with a faint smile and his hands behind his back.

It was not easy for him to use up the hidden energy, but how could Ling Xiao use it so easily? Could it be that the hidden energy he released was just a casual attack?

That's impossible, Cheng Xie believes that even though Ling Xiao is only around twenty years of age, he could actually sneak attack someone at the top of his class so easily.

"Kid, you are quite good at acting, and your performance is very calm as well. You are indeed not like a hot-blooded young man. Honestly speaking, if there is no enmity between us today, I really would want to nurture a genius like you." Cheng Youyou said coldly.

Hearing this, Feng Buping, who was at the side, raised his eyebrows. He had not come into direct contact with Ling Xiao, and did not know what happened to Cheng Xian You after coming into contact with Ling Xiao, but he could hear that Cheng Wei You's words were from the bottom of his heart. The fact that he did not casually say them showed that Ling Xiao truly had some ability.

However, in the face of such a sincere evaluation from Cheng Que, Ling Xiao appeared to not care in the slightest.

"Seniors, if you are just here to wander around the Huashan Mountain, I would not mind strolling around with you, to listen to your memories of the sword sect's past and glory, but, you barged into the Huashan Mountain as intruders, and are the enemies of the Huashan Mountain. I will not let you off so easily no matter what."

"Furthermore, you have killed and injured so many Huashan Mountain disciples. Today, I will make you pay for your blood debt." Ling Xiao looked at the two of them, his gaze firm and his expression serious.

This time, Ling Xiao represented the entire Huashan Mountain, so he said these formal words.

To the surrounding disciples of Huashan Mountain, these words of Ling Xiao's were undoubtedly the best encouragement. Thus, everyone's spirits were shaken, and every single one of them felt an unlimited amount of hope waiting for them.

Sensing that the mental states of everyone present had changed, Cheng Buyou and Feng Buping became alert with an unsightly expression.

They understood that this Ling Xiao was really too terrifying. He hadn't even made a real move, yet he was able to bring about the emotions of everyone around him. Furthermore, the king's attitude had been suppressing them steadily from the very beginning.

They understood that even if they retreated now, once Ling Xiao found them and told them all about this matter, they would definitely be chased to the ends of the earth and disappeared from this world.

Therefore, the only way out for them right now was to defeat Ling Xiao, then occupy Huashan Mountain, and use Ling Xiao's life to threaten Feng Qingyang, and protect their lives.
