Chapter 1236: Inheritance for Lei Xiao, A Life-Saving Favor, Repaid with Her Body!

Though still furious.

But Lu Ding's words had indeed placed a burden on "Them," tilting the scales of selection.

If the inheritance went to Ye Jun and the Third Sovereign, never mind whether those two could handle Lu Ding, just the consequences of a single blade strike from Lu Ding were something the hidden "They" dared not gamble on.

The only option was to give it to that girl, and the girl was on the same side as the innate human before them.

If the girl received the inheritance, they could look after each other.

An inheritance required not just selecting a fated person with suitable talent, but also considering whether it could be passed down at all.

Damn it.

It was clearly Their own belonging, yet They couldn't even make Their own decision. They were truly fucking fed up!!

The voice in the darkness said: "You may give it to her, but she must pass my trial."

Lu Ding sheathed his blade: "Arrange it as you see fit. Let me out first."

Lu Ding didn't care what trial "They" had in mind.

As long as he was let out.

Let him go slaughter those people.

By then, even if Lei Xiao failed the trial, there would be no other candidates left.

All roads lead to Rome. Don't always limit your thinking, expand your thinking.

The voice in the darkness said: "We shall meet again."

As the words fell, the surrounding darkness dispersed, and Lu Ding found himself in one of the side halls of Thunder Roar Hall.

Around him were still some Qi Refiners and demons exploring for treasures and fortunes within the hall.

The instant they saw Lu Ding appear.

Everyone hurriedly cupped their hands in salute: "Greetings, Grand Duke Lu."

Lu Ding scanned the room: "You, you, and you, you stay. The rest of you, get lost."

Those he named were all demons. Those told to scram were all humans. It wasn't that Lu Ding didn't kill people, but he didn't want to kill arbitrarily. He didn't know them, had no intelligence on them, and didn't know if they were good or bad.

What if they really had just come to seek treasures and seize fortunes?

Killing someone's son, someone's father, someone's husband for no reason, others would grieve and suffer too.

But demons were different.

What good could ever come from demons?

They deserved death!

In any case, Lu Ding found it hard to accept coexisting peacefully with things that weren't human in essence but wore human skin.

Hearing Lu Ding's words, those demons were still feeling proud in their hearts, certain that Grand Duke Lu must have some task requiring their assistance, which was why he kept them.

These people were too weak, not worth mentioning, so Grand Duke Lu had simply told them to scram.

As the humans were driven out.

A crowd of demons gathered around, fawning: "Grand Duke Lu, what are your orders?"

Lu Ding's expression was cold: "I want you to die."

The moment those words came out.

The expressions of all the demons instantly changed, terror rising.

They turned to flee.

But alas, under Lu Ding's Star-Plucking Moon-Grasping Hand.

A terrifying suction force surged from his palm, dragging back the fleeing demons, pulling them all together, draining their spiritual energy and their very essence. The useless demons were transformed into useful spirit stones experiment. In the end, only a fist-sized crystalline flesh-ball harder than diamond remained, rolling onto the ground.

Fist-sized.

Yet condensed from over a dozen demons.

Lu Ding kicked the flesh-ball, smashing straight through the inner hall wall. Amidst rising black smoke, Lu Ding roared away.

He was about to begin a massacre!!!!

Black smoke billowed from Lu Ding, blotting out the sky like the arrival of doomsday. The entire Thunder Roar Hall was instantly filled with hair-raising, manic laughter.

"Hahahahahaha............"

Lu Ding dared not imagine how rich he would become after this haul.

Those spirit stones would probably not just be a small mountain, but a massive one!

Wild winds howled, the entire world plunging into darkness, as if demonic might covered the heavens. Within the Thunder Roar Hall's small world, mountains collapsed and the earth trembled. Lu Ding attacked recklessly, divine abilities and spells blooming with dazzling radiance.

Lu Ding rampaged through the darkness, leaving only a pair of crimson eyes within the deep, dark mist, like a death-dealing god of ghosts.

Everywhere he passed, no demon was left alive!

All turned into withered flesh-ball mummies!

Better to kill a thousand wrongly than let one slip.

He killed humans too, but not all of them. Only those of ill conduct, or those connected to the Myriad Demons Gathering or the Salvation Alliance, were killed!!!

He slaughtered until within Thunder Roar Hall's self-contained space, heads rolled and hearts trembled!!

Panic spread everywhere.

Once Thunder Roar Hall opened, one could only enter, not leave, unless the time came for Thunder Roar Hall to close, and only then could these people exit.

So right now, this place was Lu Ding's hunting ground.

The outside world.

Demons and Qi Refiners surged in wave after wave, rushing into Thunder Roar Hall seeking fortunes.

Among them.

Lu Ding lurked, slaughtering at will.

The gate of Thunder Roar Hall opening to the outside was like an automatic feeding machine, endlessly feeding Lu Ding food called "demons."

Kill kill kill kill kill!!!!

At this moment, somewhere in a side hall of Thunder Roar Hall.

Ye Jun and Linjiang Xian were each sprawled in corners not far from each other.

Looking quite bedraggled.

Their eyes met, and both instantly laughed.

"Hahahaha cough cough cough..... Never thought someone as famous as you, Linjiang Xian, would get beaten into this state. Doesn't quite match your fairy title, does it?"

Linjiang Xian sat on the ground, leaning against the wall, one hand pressing the wound of her severed arm: "And you? Ye Jun of the Giant Sword, eradicating demons and defending the path, yet for a demon like me, your sword was taken. When word gets out, won't the whole world mock you?"

Hearing this, Ye Jun smiled somewhat self-mockingly: "Eradicating demons and defending the path, there's still good and bad, there's still reason and cause. In this world, some things can be done and some cannot. I, Ye Jun, cannot be the one to stand by and watch, but I can be the one to draw his blade at injustice."

Linjiang Xian's beautiful eyes softened. As they say, when a man is about to die, his words are kind. She seemed to have shed her former fairy's arrogance.

She said: "Young Master Ye, thank you for saving my life today. Otherwise, I might have died miserably at the hands of that madwoman in front of everyone."

"There would be no quietly nursing wounds in the dark like now. Though it's still undignified, it's better than what could have been."

Ye Jun took a gourd from his storage tool and drank a mouthful: "It was a small matter, no need for thanks. I've already left clues for my friends. I believe they'll find their way here soon."

"When that happens, we'll be saved."

"Xiao Mei can heal injuries. I believe once she arrives, we'll recover and go seek fortunes, and wait for the chance to take revenge!"

Hearing this, Linjiang Xian shook her head: "My wound is hard for others to treat. The lightning punishment that madwoman summoned damaged my foundation. It won't heal anytime soon, unless......."

She looked up at Ye Jun: "Young Master Ye, can you help me?"

Ye Jun held the gourd, puzzled: "How can I help? Look at me now. I've barely stabilized my internal injuries. Though not fatal, even breathing hurts. I don't have much mobility, and gathering spiritual energy is also......."

Before he finished speaking.

Linjiang Xian flashed over.

A finger pressed on Ye Jun, rooting him in place: "Like this."

As she spoke, she directly kissed him.
