The Return of the Greatest Sect Leader
Chapter 9 ~ Without Power

Li Yao's figure emerged from behind the dark passageway. That terrifying killing Eve had apparently come from Li Yao. Eve killed it out when she saw Xiao Chen was trying to harass Tang Xinyue.

Li Yao's presence made Tang Xinyue relieved. As a result of Li Yao's arrival, Xiao Chen was unable to do what he wanted to do to Tang Xinyue.

From the beginning Tang Xinyue knew that Li Yao was no ordinary person. But Tang Xinyue never expected, that Li Yao had such a strong killing intent. It was pure killing intent, which could only be obtained after slaughtering countless lives.

Eve kill it can even be aligned with the user of demonic arts. That fact made Tang Xinyue somewhat worried. Was Li Yao on the path of the demons?

Tang Xinyue immediately dismissed those insignificant thoughts. Now the most important thing for Tang Xinyue was, she immediately had to purify the entire soul that was raging within her.

"Stop! I'll slit your grandson's throat if you don't stop!" threaten the frightened Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen hurriedly hugged Tang Xinyue's body, then pointed his knife in front of the girl's neck. Tang Xinyue's breathing suffocated, she could feel a sharp metallic chill touching her skin.

Li Yao's steps came to a halt. Xiao Chen was somewhat relieved to see that. Now there were many questions in the young man's mind, about the way Li Yao got out of the prison of soul lamentation. Wasn't the trap effective enough to lock up a Swordsman King?

The reason Xiao Chen could survive in that place, was because he had an heirloom that could protect his soul. If not for that heirloom, then Xiao Chen would not have been able to control the souls that were inside there.

"How did you get out of there?" said Xiao Chen.

"You seem to have greatly underestimated a warrior king. Let's bet, who will die first? Ye? Or, granddaughter?" threatening Li Yao was intimidating.

Xiao Chen's hair stood up, cold sweat pouring down his entire body. A warrior king has the power to destroy a mountain. To such a figure, Xiao Chen was nothing more than an ant.

If an ant tried to threaten a human using his grandson, would the human figure be afraid? Not likely. In fact, Xiao Chen knew there was no point holding Tang Xinyue hostage.

Xiao Chen did it anyway. Taking Tang Xinyue hostage made Xiao Chen's fear lessen a little. The swordsman king should have been able to kill Xiao Chen, before the young man realized his existence.

But the warrior king did not do so. That was what confused Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen felt that if he made the wrong decision, his life would be lost. That's why he has to be careful.

"Before that I will give you a choice, quickly release my granddaughter then I will forgive you!" li Yao said, trying to persuade Xiao Chen.

Unfortunately Li Yao was not a warrior king. Li Yao was a con man in disguise, which was why he tried to argue with the young man.

Li Yao's body was still weak because it had not been forged yet. Li Yao hurriedly opened the meridians then gathered a measly amount of Qi.

Now Li Yao's cultivation level had reached the Qi gathering stage. Given that he had only briefly cultivated, it was an almost impossible achievement to be achieved by anyone other than himself.

Nevertheless, Li Yao still could not defeat the young man. Qi Xiao Chen was very solid because he had been cultivating for a long time, whereas Qi Li Yao was extremely chaotic and unbalanced.

In a normal fight, Li Yao had no chance to defeat Xiao Chen who had reached the Qi core forming stage. Moreover, at this moment, Li Yao had already exhausted all of his Qi to break out of that trap.

"Is that true? Are you gonna let me live?" xiao Chen said, beginning to be persuaded.

"of course! What do you think I'm lying to?" reply Li Yao.

"Do you think I'm a fool, someone like you can't possibly let a demon art user like me live. I sacrificed many lives for my cultivation, I even abused your grandson right in front of you. If it wasn't for some reason, you wouldn't be willing to have a long argument with me" Xiao Chen said at length, his brain suddenly working quickly.

"Can't you use your powers? Are you only able to bring out killing intent to scare me?" Xiao Chen tried to provoke Li Yao's emotions.

Although his opinion was quite reasonable, Xiao Chen still did not dare to do such a foolish thing as trying to fight against the figure before him.

"It's a shame." Li Yao sighed, apparently the young man was smart enough to analyze his state. To be able to think clearly when under pressure, Li Yao very rarely encountered such a young man.

"Okay, you won! I want to apologize for being so disrespectful" Li Yao said as he unpacked his disguise.

His cap was opened, all the things on his face he took off. Li Yao then wiped off the makeup on her face in a mess, she also arranged her voice to return to normal like a child.

It was time for Li Yao to change roles.

"I'm actually Xinyue's brother's sister in disguise."

Xiao Chen was stunned to see the true figure of Li Yao. How could a boy like himself deceive everyone here? Wait a minute, did Tang Xinyue reportedly have a younger brother? Xiao Chen did not know, he was still very surprised by the truth just now.

The one who was the most shocked in that place was none other than Tang Xinyue. Compared to Tang Xinyue, Xiao Chen's shock was nothing. Tang Xinyue had already been together with Li Yao for several hours, during which time she was unaware of Li Yao's disguise.

When Tang Xinyue saw Li Yao dismantle her disguise. The girl's eyeballs were smashed, her jaw dropped and her mouth was wide open.

It was fortunate that Xiao Chen did not see the shock of Tang Xinyue's face. Otherwise, Li Yao's lies would definitely be revealed instantly.

"Please let go of my brother, I'll turn myself in instead. The teacher said, my soul is purer than having a brother. To a soul-eating demon art user like a senior, I must be much more valuable than my brother," Li Yao said promoting himself.

Xiao Chen could see Li Yao's soul, as well as her cultivation level. Li Yao had indeed intentionally pointed it out. Sure enough, Li Yao's soul seemed to glow brightly, much brighter than the soul of Tang Xinyue and the person Xiao Chen had met.

"How do you know I'm a soul-eating demon art user?" xiao Chen asked curiously.

"I have very sensitive senses," Li Yao replied.

Instantly Xiao Chen was right in front of Li Yao. The young man immediately strangled Li Yao's neck and lifted him up, preparing to eat the boy's soul. Knowing that, Li Yao simply smiled.
