Looking at Li Xue, all the elders were a little surprised. Who doesn’t know the character of this eighth elder? It is not an exaggeration to describe Li Xue's character as gentle and calm. In the past when they had meetings, Li Xue was never willing to say a few words, but today for the first time, he was able to say a few words for a small messenger
"I think... give Li Mo a chance to explain."
A young man who looked about the same age as Li Xue pondered for a moment and said. This young man is none other than Liu Zhang Lao Jiang Song from the Presbyterian Church. Even though Jiang Song looks like a young man, he is over a hundred years old.
Of course, Jiang Song had never met Li Mo. Jiang Song even glanced at Li Mo just after Li Mo came here. Then he lost all interest, because Jiang Song's eyes were all on Li Xue.
Those eyes were full of love, but when Li Xue noticed Jiang Song's gaze, she glared fiercely. I believe that Jiang Song is willing to say a word for Li Mo because of Li Xue's relationship.
"I think it doesn't hurt to give Li Mo a chance to explain."
Fourth Elder Lu Zhan also said leisurely that Lu Zhan and Li Mo only had a relationship. But Lu Zhan knew that Li Mo had a close relationship with the young patriarch of the Nightmare clan.
With such a relationship, if you can hold it firmly. Maybe the Nightmare Clan will be their ally to the Jiuli Clan in the future, so Lu Zhan is also willing to sell Li Mo a favor.
"I also agree to give Li Mo a chance."
Jia Quan also nodded and said. Jia Quan had a good relationship with Lu Zhan and knew that Lu Zhan would protect Li Mo for a reason. So Jia Quan stood on the land war side.
"you… "
Looking at the elders, the anger in Yuxiao's eyes became more and more intense. But knowing that only Grandpa can veto the opinions of these elders with one vote, he does not have that prestige and strength.
So Yu Xiao pondered for a moment before saying angrily to Li Mo
"You'd better give me a satisfactory explanation, otherwise your punishment will still not be changed!"
Li Mo smiled and carefully recounted what happened during the month and a half he spent at Xiongying Village. Many of them mentioned what they saw and heard at the bottom of the cottage, mentioning Ying Zichen's cruelty. Ying Yan immediately pointed angrily at Li Mo and shouted
"You're talking nonsense!"
"Shut up!"
However, as soon as Yingyan said three words, Dongfang Yibai scolded him. At the same time, Dongfang Yibai's fairyland aura locked Yingyan to prevent Yingyan from taking action against Li Mo.
"Do you have a say here?"
Lu Zhan also asked displeasedly. What Ying Yan reported to them before and what Li Mo said now are completely different things.
Ignoring Ying Yan, Li Mo continued talking. Soon, Li Mo kept his story short and explained clearly why he killed people and what kind of people they killed.
Listening to Li Mo's words, Dongfang Yibai nodded and said
"Ying Zichen looks honest. I didn't expect him to be such a treacherous and evil person! It's natural for Li Mo to kill him! He should be innocent."
Li Xue said nothing, he was somewhat interested in Li Mo. But it was unprecedented for him to be able to speak a word for Li Mo before, so there was no reason to speak for Li Mo anymore.
"Absolutely no punishment without punishment! In that case, wouldn't life be treated as a child's play? I think Li Mo can be exempted from the death penalty, but he cannot escape from the living crime! Let's give Li Mo the punishment of a hundred soul-killing sticks."
Yu Xiao shook his head, but still had no intention of letting Li Mo go.
Dongfang Yibai's face changed as soon as he heard the words soul-killing stick. With anger in his tone, he said hurriedly
"How can that work! The soul-killing stick specializes in killing souls. An ordinary monk in the Golden Core Realm can easily kill him with one shot of the soul-killing stick! Even a monk in the Nascent Soul Realm's Great Perfection cannot bear a hundred soul-killing sticks! "
Presumably Yuxiao also knew that Li Mo was physically strong, so he gave Li Mo the punishment of a soul-killing stick that was specially designed to beat away souls. Yu Xiao had no intention of letting Li Mo live!
Lu Zhan also said in a deep voice
"A hundred soul-killing sticks is indeed a bit serious..."
Li Mo was also a little angry after hearing Yu Xiao's words. The souls of Li Mo's two lives, let alone the Nascent Soul realm. Even the powerful people in the Earthly Immortal Realm like them can't compare.
Of course Li Mo was not afraid of the soul-killing stick, but what Li Mo was angry about was Yu Xiao's injustice to him. Seeing Ying Yan snickering beside him, Li Mo said angrily
"I was wrong! But Ying Zichen has been doing evil in Xiongying Village these years. Every year, messengers from the Presbyterian Church monitor Xiongying Village, but you senior officials are indifferent and don't even know. If there is no Yingyan in the Presbyterian Church, I don’t believe it.”
"you!"
Ying Yan, who was a little proud before, heard Li Mo's words and immediately pointed at Li Mo angrily. I screamed with saliva flying all over the place
"You are so slanderous!"
With that said, Yingyan looked at Yuxiao and said hurriedly
"Great Elder! I don't know about this! I really don't know!"
The Presbyterian Church requires everyone who enters the Presbyterian Church to forget their own country. Adhering to the purpose of serving the entire Jiuli tribe, if these elders know that Ying Yan and Ying Zichen are related, the punishment will not be low.
"I demand a punishment from Eagle Rock and me!"
Li Mo continued, as soon as he heard that he was going to kill the Soul Stick like Li Mo. Ying Yan was sweating coldly, even though he was a strong man in the Nascent Soul Realm. He is also deeply afraid of the soul-killing stick.
"Do you think I will give up the punishment of the soul-killing rod on you because of Eagle Rock?"
Yuxiao smiled playfully, and then Yuxiao shouted
"Come here! Take him down and execute the soul-killing stick!"
"yes!"
Several deacons entered the meeting hall and responded.
"Wait! Yuxiao, you really won't let Li Mo go!"
Dongfang Yibai clenched his fists and shouted angrily at Yuxiao. Based on the relationship between Dongfang Yibai and Li Mo, Dongfang Yibai certainly cannot let Li Mo suffer the punishment of the soul-killing rod! Even Yu Xiao’s order in front of me won’t work!
Seeing Dongfang Yibai's tense appearance, Yu Xiao frowned a little. Dongfang Yibai never paid attention to the affairs of the Presbyterian Church.
Yuxiao was also a little confused, why did Yuxiao protect Li Mo so much.
"Second Elder, it's okay."
Li Mo grinned, even though Dongfang Yibai had treated him as brothers last time. But there are so many elders here now, so Li Mo still calls Dongfang Yibai Yiyi Second Elder.
Seeing how Li Mo was sure of victory, Dongfang Yibai's expression finally softened a little. Although Dongfang Yibai and Li Mo had only known each other for a few months, Dongfang Yibai knew that Li Mo was not a man who acted on impulse.
So if Li Mo dares to do this now, he must have a reason. Thinking of this, Dongfang Yibai loosened his clenched palms.
"One hundred soul-killing sticks is a bit too much."
Jia Quan said softly, not wanting anything to happen to Li Mo, a boy in the Golden Core Realm.
"Yes! Even if you have to bear the punishment of a soul-killing rod, we have to discuss the number carefully."
Lu Zhan straightened his body and said.
Although the monks at the Golden Core Realm were unable to catch a soul-killing stick when faced with it. But since Li Mo can kill Ying Zichen in the late Nascent Soul realm, then Shi must be able to take a few soul-killing sticks.
Li Mo was not interested in these people's thoughts. Li Mo turned to Yingyan and said with a playful smile.
"How about we decide on the quantity?"
"oh?"
“…”
After hearing Li Mo's words, several elders looked at him with interest. Even Yu Xiao didn't say anything more. It was obvious that Dongfang Yibai was angry before. Let Yu Xiao know that if he wants to defeat Li Mo's Hundred Soul Killing Gang today, he will not be able to defeat him.
So I wanted to see how many soul-killing rods Li Mo wanted.
"You... how many soul-killing rods do you want!"
Yingyan frowned and asked cautiously.
"How about we compete, who can withstand more soul-killing rods, and who wins? The soul-killing rods won't end until one of them dies, how about that?"
Li Mo grinned and said playfully. Li Mo already had murderous intentions towards Yingyan!
"What!"
Listening to Li Mo's calm words, the competition was terrifying. Even Yingyan took a step back, trembling in his heart.
"Why panic! I agree to this competition!"
After scolding Yingyan, Yuxiao said.
Strong combat power does not mean that the soul is strong. If there is no specific way to train the soul, the soul will grow according to age.
Yu Xiao didn't think that Li Mo's soul would be so powerful at his age.
Ying Yan is much older than Li Mo, and his cultivation level is also stronger than Li Mo. So no matter how you look at it, Ying Yan's soul is stronger than Li Mo.
Now when he heard that Li Mo was seeking death, Yu Xiaosheng was afraid that Li Mo would regret it, so he immediately responded.
"Yu Xiao! You've gone too far!"
Dongfang Yibai on the side roared angrily. But Li Mo stopped Dongfang Yibai again and listened to Li Mo say easily
"The decision made by the Great Elder is very correct!"
Yu Xiao glared at Li Mo. Do you really think I'm helping you? Then Yuxiao said to the dazed Yingyan again:
"Yingyan, at your age and level of cultivation, you can't defeat Li Mo, who has perfected the golden elixir realm? If you can defeat this Li Mo, I will accept you as my registered disciple!"
Yuxiao never thought that Yingyan would lose, of course, regarding Yingyan's life and death. Yuxiao doesn't care at all.
Yuxiao has a prominent status in the Presbyterian Church. How proud is Yuxiao, who is so aloof? In recent years, Yuxiao has only accepted a direct disciple, Li Jianxin, who understood the meaning of the sword at a young age.
And there are only three named disciples who can become Yuxiao's named disciples. This means that his cultivation will definitely go smoothly in the future, and his status in the Presbyterian Church will also increase.
So after Ying Yan heard Yu Xiao's words, his eyes lit up. Then Yingyan clenched his fist tightly and encouraged himself in his heart
"What are you afraid of! Although this kid Li Mo is a little weird, he just has more tricks! He is less than twenty years old, his soul can be stronger than mine? I must defeat Li Mo and become the disciple of the great elder!"
After saying that, Yingyan looked at the deacons behind him unhappily and said
"Why are you still standing here! Take us to execute the soul-killing stick!"
Seeing Ying Yan's behavior, several deacons couldn't help but spit in their hearts. What the hell, you just acted like your brother was dead when you heard the soul-killing stick. Oh no, your brother just died.
Why are you so excited now? That's a soul-killing stick, I'm not here to take you to receive the prize!
