Chapter 248: w.a.n.g Shuang’s Purpose
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ye Lingyun was the only personal disciple of Master Lingkong. At this moment, she glared at the Fire Sect Master while coldly sweeping her gaze across the surrounding disciples.
Her expression seemed to be a warning to everyone as if it implied that she would kill whoever dared to kill Master Lingkong.
…
Besides her, most of the other core disciples had the same thought.
Although many of them had not been accepted as personal disciples by Master Lingkong, they had more or less received careful guidance from Master Lingkong.
Therefore, they still had some affection in their hearts for Master Lingkong.
Hence, they would definitely not do something like killing their master.
At this moment, all of them pulled out their sabers and glared at the surrounding Green Dragon Sect disciples, waiting for the disciple who dared to kill Master Lingkong to appear.
…
Under the balance of power between them.
The situation fell into a stalemate.
The outer and inner disciples who had the intention to rush up and kill Master Lingkong didn’t dare to act rashly because they were afraid of the pressure and glares of the core disciples.
The core disciples who didn’t have the intention to rush up and kill Master Lingkong were all looking at those with bad intentions, ready to pull out their sabers and kill them at any time…
…
“Heh, interesting. Doesn’t anyone want the position as the sect master of the Green Dragon Sect?”
The Fire Sect Master couldn’t help but look disappointed when he saw that no one rushed up.
He licked his lips and thought of another idea,
“Could it be that everyone is worried that you won’t be able to kill Master Lingkong and will be killed by the other disciples instead?
“Haha, if that’s the reason, then I’ll make a promise.
“I’ll protect all the disciples who have thoughts of killing Master Lingkong.
“In that case, does anyone dare to come up?”
Weng…
As soon as he said this, many people raised their heads.
When they looked at Master Lingkong again, their eyes flashed with killing intent.
Seeing these gazes, the Fire Sect Master knew… that someone was tempted…
…
“Ah!!!”
Sure enough, not long after, a loud roar rang out from the crowd!
Following that, an outer sect disciple drew the long sword at his waist and slashed at Master Lingkong!
“Grandmaster, I’m sorry!
“Forgive my rudeness, but I’m also doing this for the sake of not letting the sect’s legacy be cut off here…”
That person gave an extremely absurd reason, then brandished his saber and slashed towards Master Lingkong!
“B*stard! You’re courting death!”
Seeing this daring traitor, Ye Lingyun slashed out without hesitation!
The sword light swept out and charged towards that person.
However, just as it was about to land on that person’s body, a fiery light shot out and directly shattered the sword light.
Then, with a crack!
The Fire Sect Master grabbed Ye Lingyun in the air, and Ye Lingyun’s neck let out a cracking sound,
Then, her entire body went limp, and she fell to the ground, directly fainting.
Boom!
Seeing this scene, everyone present instantly felt their scalps go numb.
The Fire Sect Master really made a move!
Even if it was Master Lingkong’s personal disciple…
He would still kill her without fail!
At this moment, everyone fell silent.
And the outer sect disciple who wanted to kill Master Lingkong with his saber had an excited glint in his eyes.
‘The Fire Sect Master really would protect me… !’
‘Success, success!’
‘After today, the position of the Green Dragon Sect’s sect master would be mine!’
He thought excitedly as he turned around and picked up his saber. Without any hesitation, he directly swung it back!
Ka!
However, the sound of a saber colliding with a sword rang out!
This person’s saber was sent flying by a wave of sword qi. In the next moment, his entire body was also sent flying!
Moreover, at the place where he was originally standing, a figure in red suddenly appeared.
It was w.a.n.g Shuang!
The leader of the Green Dragon Sect’s core disciples: w.a.n.g Shuang!
At this moment, w.a.n.g Shuang was standing in front of Master Lingkong. His gaze was indifferent as he looked at everyone present.
Everyone below the stage was stunned when they saw this scene.
Senior Brother w.a.n.g Shuang… What does this mean?
Is he protecting the Grandmaster?
Isn’t he with the Fire Sect Master?
Why… Would he suddenly attack?
Many disciples couldn’t help but think.
Among these people, most of them were outer sect disciples and some inner sect disciples.
w.a.n.g Shuang’s attack made them both happy and sad.
What made them happy was that the disciple who had killed Master Lingkong had been killed, giving them another chance,
What made them sad was that if the person protecting Master Lingkong was w.a.n.g Shuang, then they… Were no different from not having a chance.
…
Other than these disciples, many of the core disciples were excited and were filled with fighting spirit when they saw w.a.n.g Shuang attack.
“Senior brother! Well done! Those who dare to disrespect master should be killed one by one!”
“That’s right! Senior brother, as long as you give the order, regardless of how strong the Fire Sect Master is, we are all willing to fight!”
“Senior brother, I really didn’t misjudge you! I already said that you are the number one hero of Green Dragon Mountain!”
Many core disciples shouted excitedly, especially Liu Yuzhen who was the most excited!
She had always had a crush on w.a.n.g Shuang. At this moment, when she saw w.a.n.g Shuang stand up in the face of danger, her love for w.a.n.g Shuang grew even stronger.
She only had to wait for her senior brother’s order before she would dare to charge out and fight to the death with this fire-playing old man!
…
However, just as the core disciple was filled with fighting spirit, the outer sect disciple who had been kicked to the ground by w.a.n.g Shuang covered his wound and stood up angrily. He then questioned the sect leader of the Fire Sect,
“Hey! Old man!
“You clearly said that you would attack anyone who stopped me from killing Master Lingkong. Why didn’t you interfere when w.a.n.g Shuang attacked!?
“Your rules are unfair!
“You didn’t keep your word!”
This outer sect disciple was obviously a simple-minded person. Now that he had been kicked away in front of everyone, he felt depressed. He actually directly shouted at the Fire Sect Master.
In the face of his questioning, the Fire Sect Master’s expression did not change at all. He only smiled indifferently,
“I did say that I would protect you.
“But what I said was that I would stop anyone who wanted to stop you from killing Master Lingkong.
“But at this moment, w.a.n.g Shuang did not stop you. Why should I stop him?”
Hmm?
Hearing this strange sentence, not only the outer sect disciples, but everyone present was stunned.
What did he mean?
w.a.n.g Shuang did not stop him?
Was the Fire Sect Master blind?
w.a.n.g Shuang had directly sent this outer sect disciple flying!
“Old man, are you sure you’re not wrong? If w.a.n.g Shuang isn’t stopping him, what is he doing?”
“His actions are clearly to protect old man Lingkong!”
The outer sect disciple couldn’t contain his anger as he spoke, his face was even slightly distorted due to his anger.
“w.a.n.g Shuang, what is your purpose? Aren’t you going to announce it?
“Could it be that you really want to protect Lingkong? Don’t you want to be the Green Dragon Sect’s sect master?”
The Fire Sect Master ignored the outer sect disciple and turned around to look at w.a.n.g Shuang with a smile.
w.a.n.g Shuang didn’t move.
However, when everyone heard this, they all looked at him in disbelief.
What… What did he mean?
Could it be that w.a.n.g Shuang didn’t do it to protect Grandmaster, he did it to…
Pu!
The sound of a long sword piercing through one’s body could be heard.
Just as everyone was halfway through their guesses, reality told them…
The true purpose of w.a.n.g Shuang’s attack this time was…
To kill Master Lingkong!
…
Master Lingkong was struck in the back by his sword. Blood flowed out along the long sword and splashed in the air, splattering w.a.n.g Shuang’s clothes red.
Seeing this scene, no one spoke.
The scene was silent.
A strange silence…
Continued.
Time and s.p.a.ce seemed to stop here.
Until a long time later..,
Master Lingkong’s body slowly collapsed.
w.a.n.g Shuang put away his sword and said indifferently to the hundreds of pairs of eyes,
“After today, I will be the sect master of the Green Dragon Sect.
“Anyone who disagrees can come up and challenge me at any time!”
