Chapter 138

Miraculous sheep.

Everyone is dumbstruck by his words.

Without needing them to say anything, You XiaoMo feels the impulse to give himself a tight slap across the mouth.

It’s just that he feels that the atmosphere just now was too fitting. Furthermore, he can roughly guess Ling Xiao’s intention. That’s why he blurted out those words.

The first to recover is Ling Xiao. He can’t stop himself from bursting into laughter. Although he is already used to You XiaoMo blurting out peculiar words on and off, it still amuses him every time.

‘Break yourselves free from slavery and sing songs of freedom’, this phrase is very unique indeed. It pretty much carries the same meaning as what he wants to say.

“I will give you all some time to think it over. Let me know your answer when you’re done.”

Ling Xiao pulls You XiaoMo back to his side, straightening his sleeves as he speaks. He doesn’t give them any further explanation but he knows that the five of them understand what he means. If they don’t understand, he would have no need for these people.

“I am willing to be loyal to great lord forever.”

After being momentarily stunned, the manager reveals an elated expression, making his decision without the least bit hesitation. Only a fool would not accept the meat pie that fell from heaven.

“We are also willing to pledge our lives to great lord.”

The three black-clothed men and the other black-clothed man crawling up from the ground chime in. Just like the manager, the three of them are elated. This piece of meat pie is not of ordinary size.

Then, the five of them start to swear an oath but is stopped by Ling Xiao.

He feels that playthings like oaths are not strong enough. He has more faith in himself. So what he means is that if the five people truly want to follow him, they would let him do something to their souls. As long as they stay true to him forever, nothing would happen to them.

The five people look at each other but they soon agree not long after because if they don’t, they are only left with death.

But that is only one of the reasons. In their eyes, Tang Hun is only a Spiritual level martial artist. There is no way he can be compared to an Imperial level fighter. In their eyes, an Imperial level fighter is equivalent to TianXin sect and QingCheng sect, these first class powers, because the reason why they are so big and powerful is because they have an Imperial level fighter at the helm.

So rather than following Tang Hun that only treat them as underlings, it would be better to follow this man here. Maybe they can even carve out a territory for themselves together with him. Thinking that the Master they follow might very possibly establish a force like TianXin sect and QingCheng sect, the five men immediately get very excited.

What they don’t know is that Ling Xiao simply has no intention of establishing a strong power like TianXin sect. Someone as indifferent as him is bound to have no sense of responsibility. The reason why he lets them replace Tang Hun in HunJi city is actually for another reason.

After finishing discussing the matter, Ling Xiao lets the five of them go.

Returning back to the real world, You XiaoMo looks at Ling Xiao with uncertainty, “Elder brother Ling, are you going to HunJi city again?”

Ling Xiao looks at him who finished speaking but still looks as if he has more to say. He can’t help stretching out his hand and giving his cheek a pinch, saying softly, “What’s the matter? Can it be that my little brother cannot bear to see me go?”

“Who can’t bear to see you go

mouth says yes while heart says no – not saying what one really means

weight – burden

Xiao Piqiu – little rubber ball (I think it’s easier and sounds better to leave it in Chinese)
