Chapter 69 - Chaotic Beggar Gangs
Ling Xiao's strike frightened everyone present, because no one could clearly see what exactly happened. Ling Xiao was just too strong!
"Good kid, to think that he hid his strength so deeply, neither of us noticed him at all!" Feng Buxie couldn't help but touch his chest, which was currently in pain. He tried his best to resist the surging blood in his body as he spoke.
Hearing that, Ling Xiao said indifferently: "Although your seniority is indeed greater than mine, as the current sect master of the Beggar Gangs, your words are greatly disrespectful. At the very least, this is the Beggar Gangs's territory, not the Mu Rong family's."
Although Ling Xiao's tone was calm, everyone could feel the cold aura within his tone, and they couldn't help but shiver.
The cold and detached look that was ingrained into Ling Xiao's eyes was naturally the one that bore the brunt of the attack.
"Sect Master Ling, we were actually just passing by, we just came in to take a look out of curiosity." Bao Bian took a few deep breaths and actually said these words brazenly.
Hearing this, the originally quiet Beggar Gangs crowd could not help but discuss.
Ling Xiao knew that Bao Wuya and Feng Pang Xie definitely came here in advance, and these disciples who were in charge of the Beggar Gangs were among the victims.
Qiao Feng was naturally clear on whether or not there were any clearly explained plots behind this. He walked up to Ling Xiao's side and said in a low voice: "In the end, they are the people of Mu Rong family. Sect Master Ling, what do you plan to do?"
"These two people are the old Jianghu, and Beggar Gangs Division has always been in a situation where they have weak supervision over it, but now they have taken advantage of us, if we do not handle this matter well, the division will very likely be controlled by outsiders, causing us to lose our division." Ling Xiao said as he frowned.
Hearing this, Qiao Feng replied with a bit of shame: "I am at fault for this. If I had cared more about the matters within the sect back then, this wouldn't have happened. It's just that I'm a bit curious, where did the Branch Lord go?"
Ling Xiao laughed coldly and said: "If I am not mistaken, the Branch Lord should be one of the planners in this plot. Otherwise, no matter how weak the Beggar Gangs is, he would not allow two outsiders to behave so recklessly, much less listen to their orders."
After listening to Ling Xiao's analysis, Qiao Feng also realized that there was a huge problem at the Branch Division.
They were very worried about their own situation. Not only did they have the powerful Qiao Feng, they also had the two evil beings, as well as the strongest of the Sky Dragon Temple, Jiu Mozhi and the others, and most importantly, they had never heard of the person called Ling Xiao before.
Just a single move had caused all sorts of wind and evil to surge. This meant that his strength was extremely terrifying, and was not something that they could measure up to.
Sect Master Qiao, ah, no, Sect Master Ling, I see that you have important matters to attend to, so we will not disturb you any longer. Bao Bian laughed shamelessly.
Upon hearing this, Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows and said, "You two, although I have only arrived here, as long as you are not blind, you should be able to see what is going on here, right?"
"This... Sect Master Ling has misunderstood us, we really don't know anything. " Bao Dang waved his hand and said.
"Then, where is the Branch Lord? Where did those elders go? " Ling Xiao said coldly.
After hearing these words, Bao Qin and Feng Bo Xie's faces stiffened. They quickly looked at each other before shaking their heads with serious expressions.
"Sorry, Sect Master Ling, I really do not know what you are talking about." Bao Dang still had no intention of admitting it.
After Ling Xiao heard this, he slowly walked over to a nearby Beggar Gangs disciple who had been injured. With a gentle expression, he said, "You can see that I and Eldest Brother Qiao Feng are both here, so don't be afraid. If you have anything to say, just say it."
When he walked in, Ling Xiao had noticed this injured Beggar Gangs disciple. He seemed to have always wanted to speak, but did not dare to stand out, as though she was worried that someone would go crazy and take revenge against him.
When the Beggar Gangs disciple saw Ling Xiao walking towards him, her entire body tensed up, and even with Ling Xiao's extremely gentle tone, he was still so scared that his legs trembled.
Ling Xiao knew what he was worried about, and continued: "Don't worry, with me here, no one will be able to touch you. If you can provide me with any useful information, it would mean that you have made a huge contribution to the Beggar Gangs.
After hearing that, the man seemed to have calmed down a lot, even with Ling Xiao's promise, he was still worried that the people at the Branch Division would retaliate, but since they were going to the Division Head, there was nothing to worry about.
"Sect Master Ling, they captured all the Beggar Gangs Elders who tried to resist, and even killed two of them to set an example for others. As for the Branch Lord and the four Great Elders, they have been missing since the morning, and the entire Division Head had no one leading them. That's why they allowed those two people to barge in so easily!"
He did not know if it was because he was too excited, but after the man took a deep breath and paused for a bit, he continued, "Furthermore, they wanted to accept the division and have their brothers rebel, or else they would have killed us all. It was because the elders were all captured, and because the two of them were powerful, we were unable to resist them and thus became like this, Sect Master Ling, we cannot let them go like this!"
Ling Xiao nodded his head, and said with a serious face: "Of course, my Beggar Gangs is not so easy to bully, the brothers who are in charge are also inseparable from each other, leave this matter to me."
After he finished speaking, Ling Xiao turned his head to look at Bao Si and Feng Wugou, and said with a cold smile: "You two, you didn't think that someone would step out and speak the truth, right?"
At this time, Bao Dang and Feng Wugou's complexion had already become extremely pale; obviously, they did not expect Ling Xiao to take the initiative and ask a mere Beggar Gangs disciple!
It could only be said that they had completely underestimated Ling Xiao. They would never be able to imagine Ling Xiao's strong perception in this lifetime.
"Sect Master Ling, this must be a misunderstanding …" Bao Dang knew that once he admitted it, the consequences would be very serious, as long as he summoned up his courage and said it.
Ling Xiao shook his head, hands behind his back, and said with a cold expression: "Your actions have already shrouded Beggar Gangs with a layer of humiliation. If the two of you don't give a perfect explanation today, then don't even think about leaving this place."
Hearing this, Bao Dang and Feng Shao's faces turned extremely pale. They knew that they no longer had a way out.
"Sect Master Ling, you don't have to push me so hard, do you?" Feng Buxie said with a serious expression.
