Chapter 324 - Deterrence

The purpose of ordering the Four Great Protectors of the Mount Song to come to the Huashan Mountain was very simple. It was to have Ling Xiao be humiliated in front of everyone, so as to completely suppress the dignity of the Huashan Mountain, and guide the forces surrounding the Huashan Mountain to choose a new backer.

Therefore, from the very beginning, Mount Song didn't think much of them. The reason they had sent four of their bodyguards was to ensure that their plan could be completed successfully, but no one would have thought that the strongest amongst the four, Le Hou, would disappear from the world with just a single move from the beginning to the end.

Now that Le Hou had died, even if it was a huge blow to the Mount Song, it would also be a humiliation to the Thirteenth Guard. It was said that each of them were incomparably powerful, but they were actually defeated in a single move by a young man like Ling Xiao, who was barely twenty.

This was one of the reasons why the remaining three Imperial Protectors were furious. They could choose to leave just like that, but they would not do so. If they did not take revenge, even if they returned, only death awaited them.

Ling Xiao was clear about what kind of existence the Thirteen Security Guards were, and naturally knew that the remaining three people would not leave just like that, so he had to fight in the next battle.

"You guys are in a hurry to die. I'm in a hurry to eat, so why don't all three of you come at once? Don't waste each other's time, how about it?" Ling Xiao looked at the remaining three, and said with a faint smile.

With your tone being so arrogant, you must have used some special ability to be able to kill Le Hou, your luck is extremely good. I would like to see if you have that kind of luck when you face the three of us! Sha Tianjiang took a step forward, and shouted in anger.

Ling Xiao extended a hand and gestured, "Then come up quickly, don't waste everyone's time."

"Go to hell!" Hearing that, Sha Tianjiang roared out, he then walked forward quickly and rushed towards Ling Xiao, the other two seeing that, pulled out their weapons, and followed.

Seeing the three guards charge towards Ling Xiao, the nearby Ning Zhongze and Yue Lingshan grasped each other's hands, their faces full of nervousness and worry.

"One person versus three people isn't that simple of a number. Although we have seen Ling Xiao fight against two strong practitioners who have withstood each other before, there are currently three people." Ning Zhong looked at Ling Xiao who was on the stage, and his face was filled with worry.

Hearing this, Yue Lingshan nodded her head firmly and said: "Perhaps these three people can pose a strong threat, but I believe that Big Brother Ling Xiao will definitely defeat them."

"Blind belief is not rational." Ning Zhong knew that Yue Lingshan would unconditionally trust Ling Xiao, so she spoke up to remind him.

Yue Lingshan turned her head to look at Ning Zhongze, and said: "mother, it's not that I'm blindly believing, but Big Brother Ling Xiao has already fulfilled everything he had said from the start to now, and he has never broken his promise."

Upon hearing these words, Ning Zhong raised his head and looked at Ling Xiao, lightly nodded, and said, "You're right, Ling Xiao never does anything impossible."

Although these three people were powerful, Ling Xiao still did not put them in his eyes. Even if there were a lot of them, to Ling Xiao, it was just a few more attacks.

In terms of speed, no one in this world could ever compare to Ling Xiao, and naturally no one could pose any threat to him before his eyes.

As the last disciple of the Mount Hua Sword Sect, I have also received the favor of Master Feng Qingyang, so I have learnt the ultimate martial arts, the Solitary Nine Swords. It is a pity that I have never been able to let everyone in this world have a good look at me, and now, everyone is here, and it just so happens that I have to use the three experts of the Mount Song to train.

"So, please open your eyes wide and look carefully!"

Ling Xiao knew, in the eyes of the masses, if he were to face the encirclement and annihilation of three people, it would definitely be extremely difficult, or even suicidal, but because of this, Ling Xiao had to grasp the opportunity that the masses had misunderstood him.

This also allowed them to understand that the sense of danger they felt was merely a few simple moves. They believed that after Ling Xiao finished performing, none of the powers around Huashan Mountain would dare to have any thoughts towards him.

Although Ling Xiao said that he had nine swords, Ling Xiao did not have a sword. He wanted to use his sword techniques, but he did not have a sword in his hands, what should he do?

When Yue Lingshan saw this scene, she immediately became anxious, because the three guards of the Mount Song had already started their attack on Ling Xiao, and they were extremely quick and violent. Even under such a imminent situation, Ling Xiao seemed to still be at ease, as he watched the guests around him with his hands behind his back, and said things that would not help him in the slightest.

Even if Yue Lingshan trusted Ling Xiao unconditionally, seeing this scene, everyone was worried in their hearts whether Ling Xiao was too arrogant or not.

When Yue Lingshan saw that Ling Xiao still did not make a move after he finished speaking, he finally could not hold it in anymore. The worry in his heart was overflowing from his words, and his complexion immediately became deathly pale.

No, this won't do. Yue Lingshan didn't want to just watch as Ling Xiao sat there and waited for his death. He immediately looked around, wanting to find Ling Xiao a sufficiently heavy sharp sword.

Thus, Yue Lingshan set her gaze on Lu Da's sword that was not far away.

"Junior brother Lu, quickly lend me your sword!" Yue Lingshan ran over to Lu Da's side and said anxiously.

However, Lu Da didn't have any response, this angered Yue Lingshan, and he extended his hand out to snatch it away. However, when he approached Lu Da, Yue Lingshan saw Lu Da's expression, and his eyes glazed over, as if he had gone silly.

Something happened!

This was the thought that had appeared in Yue Lingshan's mind. Following that, Yue Lingshan also hurriedly turned her head to look at the scene. Just like Lu Da, his eyes became lifeless.

It was not only Lu Da and Yue Lingshan, but the surrounding crowd had become terrifyingly quiet. Every single one of them had their eyes fixed on the scene, because Ling Xiao had done something that made everyone's jaws drop.

Ling Xiao did not die because he did not have a sword in his hand. On the contrary, Ling Xiao still used the Nine Solitary Sword, and without a sword, Ling Xiao replaced the sharp sword with his finger!

's fingers were covered with a layer of pure white Sword Qi, and when it collided with the three guards' weapons, it made a clear "ding" sound. Ling Xiao's two fingers were as hard as steel, no one had ever seen this kind of battle, at least not Ling Xiao's actions.

And what Ling Xiao used the finger sword to do was the ultimate technique of the Mount Hua Sword Sect, the Lone Nine Swords!

But what Ling Xiao had intimidated the audience with, was the white sword qi covered point!
