C471 Persuade Her
What he said to Ling Xiao was sincere from the bottom of his heart. He did not want Ling Xiao and Ji Beixin to stay.
Ji Beixin was his granddaughter. Even if he died, he would not let his granddaughter get hurt.
He knew that only Ling Xiao could protect his granddaughter and live a peaceful life.
He no longer had a son. Naturally, he did not want to see anything happen to his granddaughter.
"Grandpa... come with us. I will serve you well for the rest of your life," Ji Beixin said before Ling Xiao could say anything.
She had been crippled for seventeen years. It was her grandfather who had brought her up. Ji Tu was her closest person. How could she bear to part with him?
"Silly child, girls will get married one day. In the future, when you stay by Xiao's side, you have to cultivate well and become stronger as soon as possible. Once you have the ability to protect yourself, you don't need Xiao to worry about you anymore." Ji Tu patted the back of Ji Beixin's hand and said kindly.
"Grandpa Ji, don't worry. No one can hurt Xin with me around," Ling Xiao promised solemnly.
He knew it was useless to persuade Ji Tu. He could more or less feel the old man's thoughts.
At the same time, he also realized that it might not be the right time for him to leave now.
Although he had left the Purple Sky Sect, But there were some people he cared about there, For example, Bing Ruoshui, Yu Lieyan, Hua Xiaogui...
Ling Xiao decided to ask them if they were willing to leave with him before he left. It would be best if they were willing, but he would not force them if they were unwilling.
No matter what choice they made, Ling Xiao would never let anyone hurt them.
...
All the elders of Purple Sky Sect entered the room.
If the warriors of Purple Sky City saw this, their jaws would drop.
Why were all the higher-ups of the Purple Sky Sect hiding in such a simple room?
"Seniors, is there really no turning back?" Yun Xiong said to Muh Huai and Muh En in a slow tone.
He did not put on the airs of a Sect Master. He could already tell that he had pulled down his pride and sincerely wanted them to return.
As long as Muh Huai and Muh En did not leave the sect, then everything would be easy.
Muh Huai and Muh En kept saying that they wanted to leave the Purple Sky Sect, but it was hard for them to say anything when the decision was made.
They couldn't swallow their anger because of Ling Xiao. Besides, Yun Xiong and the others insisted on the marriage alliance with the Heavy Sword Sect, which was why they were disappointed in the sect.
Even so, they had been in the sect for more than a hundred years. It was hard for them to give up on this relationship.
The Scarlet Flame Peak's Zhao Mingyuan advised, "Senior Brothers, now that you have given up your identity as Sect Master and asked you to come back, I think you should come back. Could it be that you are willing to part with us old fellows? You're willing to part with those children of the Wooden Flag Peak?
Wen Haiyan from the Jade Spring Pavilion also said, "That's right, Senior Brothers. Could it be that you don't even care about Junior Sister? I remember that you guys loved me the most back then.
Wen Haiyan was also playing emotional cards. She was not showing off anything. She also had a deep relationship with Muh Huai and Muh En.
Muh Huai looked at Wen Haiyan and sighed heavily. "I don't want to leave the sect, but... it's just that senior brother and I are too disappointed. If Xiao did not come back in time this time, I'm afraid I would have gone to see Hell King and Xin's child would have been killed by Luo Batian. What's the point of me going back?
Yun Xiong heard Muh Huai's softened tone and felt that there was hope in his heart. He immediately increased his strength. "This is all my fault. I am the sinner of the sect. As long as senior brother Muh is willing to return to the sect, I am willing to withdraw from the Sect Master position.
"The Sect Master cannot be used!" At this moment, the elder behind Yun Xiong said urgently.
"Sect Master, why are you doing this? Even without us two brothers, the sect wouldn't have any problems. Anyway, it was Xiao who killed them. Just tell them about this matter clearly. If we return to the sect, it will instead cause the sect to be destroyed. You guys have to consider this carefully," Muh En said unhappily.
His words were euphemistic, but everyone could tell that he was still very angry.
However, what Muh En said was the truth.
Now that they had returned to the sect, they had become enemies with the Heavy Sword Sect.
Could the Purple Sky Sect afford to offend the Heavy Sword Sect?
All of a sudden, the elders of the Purple Sky Sect began to hesitate.
On the other hand, Wen Haiyan said decisively, "Even if we tell the Heavy Sword Sect the truth, they might not believe us. We might as well work together with Ling Xiao. This way, we can still have a chance to protect our sect.
The others thought about it and felt that Wen Haiyan's words made sense. Zhao Mingyuan was the first to agree. "What Junior Sister Wen said is right. This time, regardless of right or wrong, we cannot reconcile with the Heavy Sword Sect. It's better to go all out and take a gamble.
The others also agreed.
In the end, Yun Xiong said, "That's right. This time, all of us will advance and retreat together. Even if we die, we will not let the Heavy Sword Sect have a good life. So, you two don't have to worry that we will compromise with the Heavy Sword Sect again.
Yun Xiong made his stance. Muh Huai and Muh En fell into deep thought. The others revealed a slightly nervous expression.
In fact, it was secondary that they couldn't return to the sect. The main reason was that Ling Xiao would also be a disciple of the Purple Sky Sect after they returned.
In that case, Ling Xiao would naturally protect the lives of thousands of people from the Purple Sky Sect. They all knew that only Ling Xiao and the Blue Flood Dragon could suppress the Heavy Sword Sect and make them not dare to act recklessly. This was the real reason why they came to beg Muh Huai and Muh En to return to the sect.
After a long time, Muh Huai let out a sigh and said, "We can return to the sect.
At this point, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
"However, I have a condition," Muh Huai said again.
"What condition? As long as the sect can do it, we will do it. Even if you want to take my position, I can give it to you." Yun Xiong said straightforwardly.
Muh Huai waved his hand and said, "The Sect Master is serious. Listen to me first." He paused for a moment and said, "My condition is that Ling Xiao doesn't belong to the Purple Sky Sect anymore. If you can agree to this, Senior Brother and I will go back.
After hearing Muh Huai's words, everyone's expression changed.
Hsu Jiannan said unhappily from the side, "Don't tell me that these two junior brothers have no feelings for the sect at all? Ling Xiao did not return. What right do we have to fight the Heavy Sword Sect? Are you trying to destroy the sect? Are you willing to be the sinner of the sect?
Before Muh Huai could say anything, Muh En, who was standing to the side, looked at Hsu Jiannan and said, "Senior Brother Xu, you are wrong. We are willing to return to the sect and fight with everyone. Even if we die, we are not afraid. However, it is his business whether Xiao returns or not. It doesn't matter if the two of us return or not. What you two value is only Xiao's strength.
Muh En understood what Muh Huai was thinking. He just wanted Ling Xiao to leave as soon as possible. The true strength of the Heavy Sword Sect was not something Ling Xiao could handle alone.
As his master, Which one of them doesn't want their disciples to live?
This was Muh Huai's painstaking effort as a master.
"If Ling Xiao doesn't return to the sect, all of us will die. Have you all considered the consequences?" Hsu Jiannan was still not angry.
"What do you want? Don't blame Xiao. He doesn't need to die." Muh En and Hsu Jiannan took the responsibility.
"Enough. Stop arguing." Yun Xiong shouted. He waved at the people behind him and said, "All of you go out. senior brother Muh and I will talk to each other in private.
As soon as Yun Xiong finished his words, the others left the room.
Muh Huai looked at Muh En. Muh En hesitated for a moment and walked out of the room.
"Senior brother, I beg of you this time. Without Ling Xiao in the sect, it will definitely be a disaster. Just look at the lives of those thousands of disciples. Let him stay," Yun Xiong said emotionally. At the same time, he wanted to kneel down to Muh Huai.
The reason he was able to put down all of his face was because he knew that he would never rest until the death of the Heavy Sword Sect. If it wasn't for Ling Xiao, it would be just as he said. The Purple Sky Sect would be destroyed in an instant. This Sect Master of his was the true sinner of the ancient times!
Muh Huai was quick to react and supported Yun Xiong. His old eyes could not bear to say, "Sect Master, you are destroying me like this, but... you should know that even if Xiao agrees to return to the sect with me, he will not stay here any longer. You should know this very well. He is a stubborn child.
Yun Xiong replied, "That's right. He is a persistent child, and Mengqi is also a persistent child.
Muh Huai frowned when he heard this.
Of course, Yun Xiong saw it. He sighed and said, "Perhaps none of you know that Yun Meng agreed to marry Luo Batian because she wanted to take revenge for Ling Xiao.
"What?" Muh Huai looked shocked and confused.
"I know my daughter, but I don't know her father. Mengqi went into secluded cultivation after she came back from Myriad Beast City. She broke through to the King Rank of Middle Rank realm very quickly. The reason why she is cultivating so hard is because she wants to avenge Ling Xiao as soon as possible. At the same time, she hoped to save Ling Xiao from the secret realm. However, cultivating wasn't something that could be accomplished in a single day. She didn't know how long it would take for her to get rid of the Heavy Sword Sect. Therefore, the Heavy Sword Sect came to her doorstep to propose marriage. She agreed without hesitation. Her goal was to marry into the Heavy Sword Sect. She would then use the position of Madam Sect Master to find a way to destroy the Heavy Sword Sect. "Yun Xiong explained.
Muh Huai really did not expect Yun Mengqi to have such difficulties. The decision in his heart was a little shaken.
However, he still asked puzzledly, "Then why didn't she explain this matter clearly earlier?
"She has a stubborn character and is afraid to say it out loud. No one would agree with her actions, so she could only endure it by herself. When Ling Xiao returned, she went to Ling Xiao's side. Unfortunately, Ling Xiao didn't listen to her explanation. When they left, she fainted. Until now, she still hadn't woken up. This poor child, "Yun Xiong said. In the end, he sighed softly. His expression fell into an indescribable silence.
After listening to Yun Xiong's explanation, Muh Huai fell into a dilemma.
Whether or not he would let Ling Xiao return to the sect really made it difficult for him to decide.
At this time, another unexpected person came from outside the courtyard.
When he saw this person, Ling Xiao was very surprised.
