Chapter 854: Submission
Translator: _Tat_ Editor: Rundi
“So, I am giving you a choice. To die or to completely submit to my orders.”
Ling Xian had a joking expression on but his words were ice cold.
Hearing this, the elder silenced. He wasn’t sure what to choose.
The former indicates that he will lose his consciousness and his soul. But the latter means he will give up his pride and become Ling Xian’s slave.
The two choices were extremely cruel. Therefore, he was hesitating.
At this, Ling Xian softly smiled. “I wonder if you want to be the ruler of the Court of Thunder?”
“What do you mean by this?” The elder’s eyes flickered. He faintly understood something.
“Very easy. The ruler of the Court will come sooner or later. I cannot avoid fighting him.”
Ling Xian softly spoke, “If you choose to submit to my orders, then I will let you sit on the ruler seat.”
Hearing this, a flash of light hopped across the elder’s eyes. He was tempted.
Though his position was a highly respectable one, he remained the vice ruler. If there was an opportunity for him to step into the ruler position, of course, he couldn’t fully resist the temptation.
The cruel question from Ling Xian didn’t seem so cruel anymore.
One choice was to die. The other was to become the ruler of the Court and live gloriously. Though he was destined to be stepped all over by Ling Xian, he would still be ruling over hundreds of thousands of people.
Therefore, the elder paused and gritted his teeth, “If you can kill the ruler of the Court, I would be willing to submit to you.”
“That’s not a deal.”
Ling Xian faintly smiled. Though the result will be the same, the process is not. If the elder is only willing to be enslaved after he killed the ruler of the Court, it would be like Ling Xian was begging the elder to be his slave.
This elder is somewhat useful to him, at the very least, he can allow Ling Xian to enter and exit the Court of Thunder at will and train in those mysterious places. It could even be said that Ling Xian can impose control over the entire Court.
But even without this person, Ling Xian can do all this. It would just be more troublesome.
“You better make up your mind now. My patience is limited.” Ling Xian spoke gently. He then closed his eyes and no longer spoke.
At this, the elder fell into an internal debate.
He knew that Ling Xian was testing him, testing if he trusted Ling Xian. If he doesn’t make the right decision, then what awaits him is instant death.
But if he makes the decision and Ling Xian fails to kill the ruler of the Court, then he will die regardless. In other words, this was a gamble.
If he loses on this bid, he will pay with his life. If he wins on this bid, his future will be bright.
The elder didn’t want to make a bet but he had to. Or else Ling Xian will kill him right this instant.
“The person has such a powerful physique... I can last at most three rebuttals against him. This is something even the ruler cannot do. In other words, his chance of winning is higher.”
The elder thought about it silently and hesitated for a while. Then, he gritted his teeth, “Young Master, I am willing to submit to you.”
“Wise choice.”
Ling Xian slowly opened his eyes and gently smiled. “I want to enslave you and also find someone to guard the Court of Thunder for me. That would save me a lot of trouble. Don’t worry, you will not regret your decision today.”
“Since I have made up my mind, regretting it is useless.”
The elder softly sighed, “Young Master, do you want me to vow to the heavens or are you going to place a seal?”
“A vow to the heavens will suffice.”
Ling Xian smiled. “I don’t plan on restricting you too much anyway. I will be the voice in the dark, but you will remain you. plus, you will be the true ruler of the Court of Thunder.”
“Yes, young master.”
The elder revealed a grin and suddenly felt more relaxed. Then, he extended his middle three fingers and vowed to the Gods.
The basics of it were that he announced Ling Xian as his master and that he will never betray him.
“Very well, now let us quietly wait for the current ruler of the Court.” Ling Xian beamed then closed his eyes. Like an old sage, he began to daydream.
“Aye, I sure hope he can defeat the ruler.”
The elder sighed silently. He cannot believe Ling Xian’s trick worked and he became Ling Xian’s slave.
But since the situation had unfolded in such a manner, it was useless to regret it. He will focus on serving Ling Xian. Or else Gods will send thunders to kill him.
Therefore, he let go of his negative emotions and went to the side to adjust himself.
Time passed by like that little by little.
Half a month later, Ling Xian slowly opened his eyes. A white ray of light flashed from his eyes.
He felt a powerful Qi, one that belonged to the peak of the original level. At this time, there was one person, at such a level, visiting the Wen Clan – the ruler of Court of Thunder.
“So he came...”
Mumbling, Ling Xian stood up. Within seconds, the space around him split into cracks.
Then, a statement full of killer’s intent arose, astonishing the entire Wen Clan.
“Who killed all my subordinates! Come the f!ck out!”
Hearing this, Ling Xian frowned. He tore the space apart and appeared above the Wen Clan.
He saw that at the front, there was a man with large eyes and he was wearing a purple robe. He was simply standing there. He looked studious and also warrior-like, with a demeanor that was very threatening and terrifying.
There was also a hint of lightning and thunder around him – it was as if he could destroy everything around him.
Everyone from the Wen Clan dashed out. The moment they saw this person, their eyes revealed how fearsome they were.
Because this person was far too prominent and his capabilities were far too strong.
Even Ling Xian frowned slightly, feeling a little pressure from the man’s body. However, he didn’t fear him and said, “The one who killed your subordinates is I.”
“Hmm? No spiritual energy?”
The man raised an eyebrow. But when he felt Ling Xian’s pulsing energy, his pupils restricted, “No, you have a powerful physique!”
“You are at the peak of the original level after all, you saw through me right away.” Ling Xian faintly smiled.
“No wonder you can kill several of my subordinates. You are somewhat capable.”
The man hissed and arrogantly spoke, “But so what? Before me, you are an ant that I can kill anytime!”
“You sure appear domineering and very confident.”
Ling Xian frowned slightly. “So you are saying that you want to fight me no matter what?”
“You stopped my Court of Thunder from killing the Wen Clan and killed so many of my subordinates. I have to take your life!”
The man was arrogant and overbearing. He had a look on his face like he was better than everyone else. It was obvious he didn’t think anything of Ling Xian.
His cocky stance made Ling Xian frown and made him uncomfortable. Therefore, his expression turned cold, “It looks like we must fight and one of us might die.”
“I will be the one who lives. When that happens, I will see who from the Wen Clan can stop my Court of Thunder!”
The man smiled in disdain and glared at everyone below. His eyes were brewing dangerous electricity and made everyone shiver.
Seeing this, the man didn’t seem to give a damn. He shifted his gaze towards Ling Xian, “Your capability isn’t too bad. If you submit to me, I can spare your life.”
“Who wins and who loses is not for certain yet. Isn’t speaking like that a little too soon?” Ling Xian spoke softly, his Indestructible Physique was being summoned and he was starting to emit gold light.
“Haha, it will be too late after I kill you!”
The man laughed out loud. Then, he shouted a loud scream that rumbled throughout the heavens.
“Young man, accept your death!”
