Chapter 147: Endure for a moment and the sky will be wide open
Long Aotian spoke harshly so quickly that he forgot that there was a disciple from the Law Enforcement Hall standing next to him.
"Did I hear it wrong? Someone actually dared to say such crazy things in front of the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall." Nan Xianzhi was surprised.
After hearing the words "I swear to kill you", the black-clothed Law Enforcement Hall disciple standing by suddenly looked serious: "Long Aotian, be careful with your words and actions. She is a disciple of the Qingyuan Sect like you. Do you really want to blatantly violate the sect rules?"
"I'm really scared. Why did Uncle Long say that? What did I do?" Bai Lan looked at Long Aotian and slowly wound up the spirit-binding rope in his hand and put it into the storage bag.
She even wanted to pick up the soul-binding rope that had tied her up for most of the month.
"......" Long Aotian took a deep breath and suppressed his anger: "Haha, how could that be, you didn't do anything."
"If you really hate her so much, you two can discuss it, make a vow to fight to the death."
Long Aotian’s expression froze.
If it was three months ago, he would have had the courage to accept the fight, but now...
Whenever he faces Bai Lan, it seems like he has never won even once?
"No way, no way, as Uncle Long is an inner disciple, he wouldn't be afraid to accept the duel with me." Bai Lan looked surprised.
Long Aotian slowly clenched his fist: "Bai Lan..."
There are many families in the world of cultivation, and the relationships between forces are complicated. Even if you are a cultivator from the same sect, it is inevitable that you will encounter a few disciples who have blood feuds with each other.
In this way, the sect's rule that disciples are not allowed to kill each other seems a bit inhumane.
Therefore, a new rule of life-and-death duel was added. If both monks were willing, they could duel on the sect's fighting platform.
Once the fight begins, there is no room for regret. The winner lives and the loser dies.
Most cultivators value their lives, so except for those who have a blood feud and will be haunted by demons and unable to make any progress in their cultivation if they don't eliminate the other party, there are not many cultivators who would engage in life-and-death battles over minor grudges.
But Long Aotian is different.
Most of the second-generation rich kids who had verbally challenged Long Aotian, the second-generation immortals who had coveted Long Aotian's harem, and the fellow geniuses who had snatched Long Aotian's treasures, died in life-and-death duels with him.
With this rule, he can unscrupulously eliminate the hatred in the hearts of those who have big bosses backing them.
But now...his opponent is Bai Lan.
Bai Lan didn't have any backers, not even a Nascent Soul father, a God Transformation master, or even a Jindan cultivator with whom she had a good relationship and was willing to protect her.
but......
His empty waist and index finger told him that it was not wise to engage in a life-and-death battle with this woman.
But her eyes are too provocative!!!
She even put the ring on her hand and showed it off in front of him, even though she had put it away before. It seemed like she was deliberately humiliating him.
Even worse than Emperor Taizu of Tang who pointed at his nose and called him a loser!
"No, that's not right. You are penniless now. Even if I beat you, it seems that I won't get any benefit. Tsk, it's really not worth it." Bai Lan shook his head and sighed: "If you really want to fight, I suggest you prepare the spirit stones first, otherwise I won't accept it."
Fighting also causes losses, and her Soul-Breaking Spear will also get tired.
Veins bulged on Long Aotian's forehead. Even at the top of the Siguo Cliff, so close to the ten thousand year old ice, he felt his heart burning with anger and could hardly hide it.
"Boy! Stay calm, if you are patient, you will have a bright future..." The old man spoke in a deep voice in Long Aotian's mind: "This kind of competition is usually guarded by high-level monks from the sect. If your life is in danger, even if I can save you in the competition, my identity will be completely exposed."
"But she's going too far!!!"
At this point, the anger caused by the previous broken engagement has been diluted a lot. Since Bai Lan entered the world of cultivation, everything he has done is enough to make Long Aotian remember it deeply.
Half a month of self-cultivation smoothed out Long Aotian's edges, but increased his anger.
"If you can't even tolerate this little provocation, how can you talk about revenge?" The old man said in a deep voice: "Aotian, even if I am as powerful as you, I have been looked down upon by others before. I can tolerate it, but you can't?"
"......Okay, Master, I will endure......"
"That's right. Although I don't know what secrets she holds, she is helpless in the cultivation world. People like her won't live long."
Long Aotian's fists slowly loosened, and he spoke in a deep voice: "I, Long Aotian, hate fighting the most in my life. I think we should just forget about this life-and-death duel. Fellow disciples... should just live in peace with each other."
Nan Xianzhi on the side couldn't help but sneer: "Oh, do you believe this?"
Long Aotian looked at Nan Xianzhi with a cold gaze, but paused again.
No, she is the sect leader's disciple.
He can't afford to offend Bai Lan, and this one is no less so.
"Hmph, what's the matter? Looking at you, you not only want to kill Bai Lan, but also want to kill me?" Nan Xianzhi's expression turned cold.
Nan Xianzhi did not have a good face towards Long Aotian. The Long family had committed serious crimes due to party disputes and were demoted, and the entire family was exiled.
Everyone thought that the Long family was going to lose power, but unexpectedly, a cultivator with outstanding talent like Long Aotian emerged.
As the saying goes, when one person succeeds, the whole family will benefit. After that, the entire Long family was pardoned and returned to the government, quickly occupying a place in the Southern Kingdom's court. The Long family even had the intention of using the power of the cultivators to replace the royal family.
As a princess of the royal family, Nan Xianzhi naturally knew what was going on in the court.
In Nan Xianzhi's eyes, Long Aotian was a traitor who was trying to seize the royal status of the Southern Kingdom.
"Hmph." Long Aotian looked gloomy. He looked at the disciple guarding him and said slowly, "My sentence has not yet expired. There are still five months left. Since you want to change places, take me to the lower three floors quickly."
He used the most sinister tone and spoke words that indicated his hasty escape.
"Hey! Come on, come on, I'll take you there now!" The disciple who was guarding on the side was as if he had been pardoned.
Finally someone was willing to leave.
"You really don't want to leave?" The disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall looked at Bai Lan and said, "The Cliff of Repentance is not a cave for cultivators. There are serious criminals from the sect here. Outsiders... are not allowed to stay here for long."
