A choice.
This choice was so heavy that it made it difficult for everyone in the audience to breathe.
Looking at the hesitant Ling Xiao, Bai Yutang felt calm and laughed playfully: "Headmaster Ling Xiao, you have to think clearly that the fate of the Lihuo Sect is entirely in your hands. Which one should you choose for this newbie? As a new disciple in two months, I still choose to leave the Fire Sect, which is several thousand times the ancestor's inheritance, and the safety of thousands of disciples, all depends on your words."
The whole place was dead silent.
For a moment, there was silence.
The silence was punctuated by heavy breathing.
"You only have half a cup of tea." Bai Yutang shrugged, turned around and leaned against an ancient book, and then quietly waited for Ling Xiao's decision.
With half a cup of tea, Lihuo Sect will undergo earth-shaking changes.
Ling Xiao was forced and his breathing was a little short. This choice was too shocking. No matter which choice he made, he couldn't make an expedient.
"How despicable!"
"Yes, isn't this forcing the leader again?"
Shao Yang and the other six disciples were furious for a moment.
"This beast!" Su Ming cursed loudly, unable to hold back his breath.
Yin Mo even stomped his feet, pointed at the white jade soup under the tree, and shouted angrily at Ling Xiao: "Master Ling Xiao, why are you afraid of him? Our Lihuo Sect, no matter how bad it is, is still one of the two major sects in the ancient city. As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot be defeated. As for the local tycoon, the worst case scenario is that he will accept the Burning Heaven Execution Order!"
Ling Xiao shook his head, his face turned ashen as possible: "Yin Mo, you underestimate the Burning Sky Sect too much. In front of the giant dragon of the Burning Sky Sect, we are not considered local snakes at all. At best, we are just a small person walking in the quagmire. loach."
Hearing the sound, Yin Mo clenched his fists unwillingly, showed off his usual quarrel with Qin Shi, and shouted: "So what? If you fight with them, you will die anyway. Even if I die, I, Yin Mo, will not do anything." Be that treacherous person.”
treachery.
The four words were like a deafening bell, striking everyone present.
However, there are only a few people who can sacrifice their lives for righteousness. Some disciples who have heard about the Burning Sky Sect have shown despair and powerlessness towards the Burning Sky Sect. They said in a trembling voice: "Is it impossible? Fight? How can we compete with that kind of behemoth? Can you fight it?"
"Yeah, the only choice is death, right?"
"Master head, you have to think carefully. You cannot destroy the entire Lihuo Sect for the sake of one person."
Hearing these words, Yin Mo was so angry that he went crazy and roared at everyone: "What did you say? Have you forgotten? If it weren't for the stone, you would have died in the Burning Sky Secret Realm by now. How could you be where you are now?" ?”
Qin Shang and others were equally furious.
Su Ming went too far. He grabbed the disciple who had spoken just now, punched him with his hand, and roared: "What the hell are you talking about? If you dare, tell me again? Stone is kind to you, even a dog knows it." Thank you, who do you think you are?"
After being knocked away by Su Ming, the disciple lost his temper: "Yes, Senior Brother Qin Shi is kind to us, but does that mean we are destined to die for him?"
In a word, the valley echoes.
Affected by the trend of public opinion, some disciples who were greedy for life and fearful of death began to discuss in a low voice: "Yes, that's right, Lihuo Sect is the foundation of several generations of heads. Since Senior Brother Qin Shi is a disciple of Lihuo Sect, he must be able to serve for it. The sect must sacrifice itself.”
The discussion became more and more intense.
"You...I'll kill you!" Su Ming was furious and completely ran away.
Snap!
But at this time, Qin Shi's eyes were indifferent, and he suddenly stopped Su Ming: "Well, he is right. No one owes anyone in this world. I, Qin Shi, must be wrong."
"Stone… "
Su Ming was unwilling to accept being stopped and felt dissatisfied for Qin Shi.
However, Qin Shi just shook his head, and those comments in his ears completely chilled his heart.
"You were flattering in the front, but betrayed in the back. Maybe this is the cruelty of reality, right?" Qin Shi shook his head mockingly as if he was asking a question, and then he turned his attention to Ling Xiao. The final decision-making power still lies with Ling Xiao. On hand.
Qin Shi knew that his life and death today were entirely in Ling Xiao's hands.
As long as Ling Xiao nodded, Lin Yun would probably not hesitate and lead the Yunding Sect disciples to kill him into a pulp. Facing Lin Yun, he had no confidence at all, even if there was a magic talisman, and the Baiyu Tang was right next to him.
Everyone was silent at this time.
Standing behind Ling Xiao, Mo Chen and the other elders opened their mouths, then closed them again without saying anything.
Time, as if at this moment, gradually stopped moving.
I don't know how much time passed, but when the time for half a cup of tea came down, Ling Xiao finally raised his head indifferently. The moment he faced Qin Shi, his eyes showed heavy guilt, he opened his mouth and said weakly: "Qin Shi, I'm sorry..."
sorry!
Three words, Qin Shi trembled.
"From today on, you are no longer... my disciple of Lihuo Sect..." Ling Xiao closed his eyes and finished the sentence completely.
boom!
In an instant, the whole place was as silent as dead water.
The rustling wind swept through the fallen leaves in the mountain forest.
It's raining.
The sky is filled with gloomy clouds, and drops of rain fill the mountains and forests.
This time, after being betrayed for the second time in his life, Qin Shi felt heart-wrenching pain and despair, and a kind of helpless pain spread in his thoughts.
Last time, it was Yu Lin'er.
And these two times, it was all because of the White Jade Soup. An unprecedented anger surged into his heart. He laughed at himself with a wry smile, raised his head and looked at the cloudy sky: "Haha, God, you really know how to joke."
"Stone, I won't let you die! Absolutely not."
Burning Shu was slightly feverish, Shuyu said firmly.
However, Qin Shi just shook his head. He believed that Shuyu would not betray him, but facing Lin Yun, Baiyu Tang, and the entire Yunding Sect, was it really possible to survive? Already he felt that death was beckoning to him, calling to him.
Bang bang bang!
At this time, after a few rounds of applause, Bai Yutang stood up next to the tree, and immediately raised the corner of his mouth: "Haha, the head of Ling Xiao is smart enough. As the saying goes, those who understand the current affairs are heroes."
Hearing this, Ling Xiao didn't say a word, but just lowered his head silently.
Ignoring Bai Yutang, Yin Mo, Su Ming, Qin Shang, Hao Shuai, and Xu Qiaoer all looked at Ling Xiao with incredulous expressions on their faces at this moment: "Zhang, Zhang, what you said It’s not true, right? You won’t give up the stone, right?”
Ling Xiao did not reply to many people. For a moment, he seemed several times older. His eyes were filled with pain and he shook his head and said: "Qin Shi, I'm sorry, I can only do this. The Lihuo Sect really cannot be destroyed... I hope you can understand. …”
understand
"Hehe, hehehe, hahahaha!"
Suddenly, wild laughter echoed in the forest, and Qin Shi raised his arms, full of self-deprecating sarcasm: "Okay, okay, okay, it's so damn funny, you want me to understand you? Okay, I will understand you, If the King of Hell really falls, I will definitely praise you and the Lord of Hell, saying that you are a selfless person who does everything for the good leader of the sect."
The sound was deafening and full of sorrow.
"Qin Shi..." Ling Xiao lowered his head and was speechless.
But at this time, several disciples nearby shouted: "Qin Shi, what are you talking about? How dare you be rude to the leader?"
"A gift? I'm going to give you a courtesy, uncle. You all must remember that your life was bought at the expense of my life. You only managed to survive by betraying me!"
Unprecedented curses spat out from Qin Shi's mouth, and he immediately raised his hands and let the rain drip down, washing his pale face: "Haha, bullshit justice, sanctimonious on the surface, but secretly just a bunch of treacherous villains people."
Self-deprecating, ironic, pathetic.
Various expressions suddenly appeared on Qin Shi's face.
Being caught in the rain, the loneliness in Qin Shi's heart expanded several times: "Haha, hahaha, ridiculous justice is just a villain who is sanctimonious on the surface but treacherous behind the scenes. A sect like this doesn't need to be treated!"
Looking at the peerless Qin Shi, Su Ming, Yin Mo, and Xu Qiaoer were speechless for a moment.
"No matter what you say, I will accompany you, brother of life and death!" Who would have thought that at this moment, Su Ming suddenly stepped forward and lined up next to Qin Shi, laughing with a look of death on his face: "Even if I die, I, Su Ming, will not die. He would betray his brother."
Qin Shi was stunned: "Su Ming..."
"Su Ming, what are you doing? You are still my Lihuo Sect disciple. As the leader, I am ordering you to get back!" Seeing Su Ming's actions, Ling Xiao shouted angrily.
Unexpectedly, Su Ming turned his head very sarcastically, immediately grabbed the Lihuo Token at his waist, poured in spiritual power and crushed it with a bang, saying disdainfully: "Order? Order your uncle, I will quit the Lihuo Sect now. Order whoever you like to order."
"You..." Ling Xiao was stunned by Su Ming's actions and was speechless.
Looking at the dumbfounded Ling Xiao, Su Ming roared again: "Humph, you are the leader of a sect. Today I will teach you something, remember it well. Life is what I want, and righteousness is what I want. , You can’t have both, I’m the one who sacrificed my life for righteousness!”
Excited sounds echoed along with the fragments of the token.
bump!
At this time, when everyone was shocked, there was another explosion in the forest, and then Xu Qiaoer was seen, holding a hand full of broken powder, stepping forward: "Brother Shitou, I will accompany you too!"
bump! bump!
At this time, Qin Shang also stepped forward: "Stone has been kind to me for rebuilding, count me in!"
"Count me in!" Yin Mo also crushed the Lihuo Token in his hand and stepped forward with his head held high.
"Qiao'er... Brother Shang, Xiao Flat Chest... you..." Looking at the four people, Qin Shi's dead heart seemed to be ignited again.
"Don't be pretentious. I said that even if I die, I, Yin Mo, will not betray my trust." Yin Mo interrupted Qin Shi.
At this moment, Qin Shi suddenly didn't know what to say. The helplessness of being abandoned by the sect had already pushed him into the abyss. However, he felt in a daze that it was worth it to see clearly these friends who were willing to risk life and death for him at this critical moment of life and death.
"you… "
Ling Xiao was trembling and speechless.
Looking at the people standing side by side, Bai Yutang was startled and laughed loudly: "Haha, such a touching scene, it really makes me cry." At this point, he stopped talking nonsense and turned to Lin Yundao: "I said Lin Yunzhang Men, is it time to fulfill your promise?"
Lin Yun was stunned, then nodded, revealing his ruthless fangs, and cast a fierce look on Qin Shi: "Hey, little bastard, you don't have Ling Xiao and Li Huo Sect to back you up now, I want to take a look. Who can save you?"
"Hmph, a shield made of dogs is not uncommon!"
Unexpectedly, Qin Shi laughed harshly and cursed outright.
"What a good sentence, scolding you enough." Lin Yun teased, and then he raised his hand and greeted the elders of the Yunding Sect beside him: "Kill them..."
In an instant, many elders appeared together, and purple rays of light filled the sky.
Looking at the cold halo, Qin Shi took a deep breath, looked around at Su Ming and Yin Mo, and smiled bitterly: "You must think carefully, you will die if you follow me."
"Who is afraid of death? Have you forgotten the person above me?" Su Ming laughed.
Yin Mo and others nodded in agreement at the same time: "That's right, you will die eventually, so it would be better to die more gloriously."
Looking at the appearance of these people, Qin Shi's heavy heart suddenly dropped, and his arrogance rose one after another. The corners of his mouth showed the old ruffian smile: "Haha, I didn't see it before, but you are actually facing the collapse of Mount Tai. The ability to change color, if that’s the case, I’m being hypocritical!”
"In that case, let's fight side by side!"
