Bab 552: Why Did You Kill My Child?
"If you're going to act, cut it out and do it now."
An arrogant, domineering voice carried throughout, shocking the crowd.
"This boy is so arrogant."
"It's as if he doesn't put the lord of the city and the patriarchs in his eyes!"
"Will it be that he trusts because of that woman at his side? That must be it!"
The crowd whispered glaring at Ling Tian, sensing the arrogance in his words, insulting the city lord and the great leaders of the major families.
The city lord changed his angry expression and frowned when he heard Ling Tian; the other patriarchs were surprised and could not help but put on a serious expression, looking at the other patriarchs as if seeking to confirm something.
"Young Master!" A low cry filled with worry came from the Feng family. Di Ji glanced worriedly at Ling Tian, noticing the change in the atmosphere.
Ling Tian looked indifferently towards the city lord and the other patriarchs. Since he showed himself, he clearly noticed the various stares he received, especially those looking for his storage ring. The news of the death of the Celestial Tiger and the expert who left him an inheritance must have spread easily, so they would covet the objects of such an expert.
If that inheritance fell into the hands of a crippled cultivator, it would clearly have no use and it would be better to take it away.
Ling Tian was perfectly familiar with this kind of thinking, after all, he also performed such actions in the past, from killing and stealing to increase his cultivation...
"Hehe, looks like the little fellow really still retains his intelligence despite losing his cultivation."
The city lord let out a sigh and looked with a small greedy smile at Ling Tian!
"Feng Yu..." Li Fengyuan looked concernedly at Ling Tian, although she did not know why he spoke so arrogantly, Li Fengyuan hoped that nothing would happen to Ling Tian. The understanding in his words about the sword had opened more doors for her about the way of the sword, so Ling Tian should undoubtedly be a genius even though he was crippled.
Li Fengyuan still wanted to give her answer to Ling Tian about supposedly becoming his personal maid.
"Kid, if you hand over the inheritance left to you by the expert, I can save your life from everyone else." The city lord spoke solemnly, "It is better if you hand it over to save your life."
The patriarchs of the major families frowned and looked warily at the city lord. Did he really want to keep the loot alone?
"Aren't you afraid that expert is still here, silently watching everything you do and say?" Ling Tian asked with a playful smile, watching everyone else's expressions change.
"What? An expert?"
"The expert who killed the Celestial Tiger!"
"God! He has to at least be an expert above the Golden Core! An expert of the Nascent Soul!"
The city lord and the patriarchs frowned and couldn't stop their backs from being bathed in cold sweat.
Yes! That expert could still be here and they with their low cultivation bases wouldn't be able to find him!
"Haha! See what a few simple words can do, little Wei?" Ling Tian laughed lightly and shook his head. The strongest will always be arrogant until they meet one higher than them.
Shin Wei nodded and also couldn't help but let out a few small laughs.
"You dare to mock?" Long Yin shouted furiously at Ling Tian, realizing that he simply teased by making them think about the presence of that mysterious expert.
Ling Tian turned to look at Long Yin and narrowed his eyes, pondering something before shifting his gaze.
"Di Ji, there is no need for you to serve this useless family. If you wish, I can help you return to your family." Ling Tian looked at Di Ji with a gentle smile, making her surprised.
Di Ji was the only pure thing that had not been corrupted in this place, with this family. Ling Tian also knew that Di Ji's family was somewhat far away and she had no choice but to work as a servant in this place.
"You say my family is useless? Aren't you the useless one?"
Before Di Ji could respond, a cold and hateful voice was heard.
Feng Xuan stood up and glared with murderous intent at Ling Tian. Li Fengyuan did not enter his gaze, so he would deal with her later.
"Who are you really? I'll leave your body intact if you tell me, obviating the fact that you pretended to be Feng Yu." Feng Xuan looked arrogantly at Ling Tian. He had heard what his father had told him now and earlier when he arrived. Feng Xuan is not stupid and clearly he could tell that Ling Tian was not Feng Yu.
Feng Xuan did not even take into account Xuanyuan Ling by his side, who seemed to have a Golden Core realm cultivation. After all, there was a true expert with a high cultivation level there and he was on his side.
Ling Tian ignored Feng Xuan and continued to look at Di Ji with a smile.
Di Ji felt nervous, but with Ling Tian's gentle gaze her heart calmed down and she nodded.
"En!"
Di Ji wanted to return to her family, but she knew the situation was bad and she didn't want to be a burden to them. Therefore, Di Ji had no choice but to work in this place when he arrived.
"So young but very arrogant..."
"He thinks that because he has the help of an expert by his side, they won't be able to do anything to him." An old man shook his head at Ling Tian's ignorance, as if the looks he was getting from great experts didn't scare him.
"You still think you can leave?" Simu Houcheng spoke darkly, his murderous gaze on Ling Tian.
"You don't have the qualifications for me to lift a finger." Ling Tian looked indifferently at Simu Houcheng before adding, "You should worry about someone else first."
Ling Tian looked in one direction and sighed with a hint of regret and slight sadness inside.
When everyone followed Ling Tian's gaze, they could see that from afar, a man who looked to be about 50 years old was slowly approaching. In his hand he was carrying a spear, while his face showed a gloomy expression and traces of sadness, but this would change to a deep murderous intent upon seeing Simu Houcheng.
"Feng Wuyu?"
Feng Rao was surprised to see the change in Feng Wuyu and sense a chilling strength coming from him.
Simu Houcheng stood up and glared furiously at Feng Wuyu, as if he couldn't sense Feng Wuyu's murderous intent.
"Houcheng!" Feng Wuyu roared in a low voice. Any could sense a slight feeling of pain and sadness.
"Looks like you haven't died yet." Simu Houcheng sneered as he looked at Feng Wuyu's unkempt appearance.
They all knew about the radical change Feng Wuyu had when Feng Yu had disappeared many years ago. He neglected his appearance and became an old man, with the pain and sadness of losing his son. Even the position of the patriarch he left to his younger brother and disappeared from everyone's sight.
The city lord frowned as he felt a slight pressure from Feng Wuyu, as if he was approaching his strength.
"Why?"
A low hoarse voice came out of Feng Wuyu's mouth, his gaze was only on Simu Houcheng and he didn't care about anything else.
"What?" Simu Houcheng snorted coldly with sneer, but inside he felt some fear.
Could Feng Wuyu know the truth?
Feng Wuyu took a few more steps and stood several meters close to Simu Houcheng. Then, a small tear formed in the corner of his eye before he tightened his grip on the spear in his hand and looked furiously in tears at Simu Houcheng.
"Why did you kill my child?"
