Chapter 178 The moment of youth
She was bewitched by the devil at the moment, and even the object of her hatred was replaced by Mo Yi, who turned it into Ye Lingxiao who took care of her.

This is the terrifying thing about the devil's mind. When Meng Lingsu first entered Jianhu Palace and became a disciple of Jianhu Palace, she was despised and hated because of her ominous background. Whoever got close to her would be unlucky. Later, as time went by, after all the disciples of Jianhu Palace knew Meng Lingsu's background, no one liked her anymore. It can be said that since becoming a disciple of Jianhu Palace, Meng Lingsu has been looked down upon and wronged, and her heart has long been wrapped in boundless resentment. It was only because Ye Lingxiao's spiritual power was the Seven Killing Stars, which was full of murderous aura, that he was not affected by the ominous aura when he was with her, so he took care of her.

But now that Mo Yi had used his devilish methods to bewitch her mind, the resentment and desire for revenge that Meng Lingsu had accumulated over the years completely broke out, and this endless resentment was all focused on Ye Lingxiao.

At this moment, Meng Lingsu was sitting cross-legged on an altar about ten feet high. Her eyes were red, and rolling pale and ominous clouds were lingering around her. She silently chanted Ye Lingxiao's name, and her hands moved non-stop, casting out thousands of ghost face runes in an instant.

Buzz buzz...!
All the ghost face runes soared into the sky and disappeared directly into the void.

On the other side, in the Mangcang Mountain with nine peaks, the majestic sect hall is very lively at this moment.

Ye Lingxiao sat on the jade chair to the right of the head of Mangcang Mountain with a cold expression. His eyes were cold as he swept over everyone from Mangcang Mountain in the hall.

At this moment, in addition to Xu Jingyang, the head of Mangcang Mountain, there were more than a dozen elders in the Jindan realm in the hall.

"My dear nephew, the incident with your Ye family was indeed caused by my negligence. Not only did that devil rob a treasure house in my Mangcang Mountain, he also commanded the Heavenly Demon to wreak havoc in Mangcang Mountain. We fell into that devil's trap and I was careless. Who would have thought that your Ye family would be wiped out by that devil?"

Xu Jingyang's tone was very apologetic. With his status, he was able to speak to Ye Lingxiao like this, not only because Ye Lingxiao was in Taichu Lingji, but also because Ye Lingxiao was a true disciple of Jianhu Palace and was highly valued by Li Qingcheng.

Ye Lingxiao didn't react at all after hearing this. He just said coldly, "What about Ye Tianjing? How did he die?"

Xu Jingyang paused for a moment, pondered for a while, and then said: "This matter... Never mind, this matter should not have been concealed from you. Last time, your Ye family junior received an invitation to the Tianji Pavilion, so I sent my junior brother and Ye Tianjing and others to attend the event. Who knew that because of the incident in Taikang Capital, Ye Tianjing was killed silently, and even the invitation was taken away. The person who could kill him silently could not be anyone else except the Yuanshen Great Power. This revenge is..."

After receiving the news of Ye Tianjing's death, Mangcang Mountain did not make it public, because the person who killed Ye Tianjing was most likely a powerful soul. It would be disastrous if such a being heard some news that was not to their liking and came to cause trouble for Mangcang Mountain.

"The power of the Yuanshen? Does this mean that I am the only one left in the Ye family now?"

"That's true. My dear nephew, don't be too sad. You are in the Primordial Spiritual Realm and a true disciple of the Sword Gourd Palace. Sooner or later, you will become a Yuanshen. When the time comes, it will be easy for you to start a new branch and revive the prestige of the Ye family."

Ye Lingxiao ignored Xu Jingyang's consolation. He smiled and said, "All dead? That's good. This way, I will be free from all worries in this world. This is in line with my Seven Killings Dao!"

"Nephew, you...?"

Xu Jingyang and everyone present were slightly stunned, and were all shocked by the terrifying murderous intent that Ye Lingxiao was emitting at this moment. Although Ye Lingxiao's cultivation was not high and he had not yet refined the golden elixir, the murderous aura he exuded when he manifested the Seven Killing Stars was incomparably pure and condensed like substance.

"Do you have any clues about the demon that caused such a commotion in Mangcang Mountain?"

Ye Lingxiao suddenly stood up, walked towards the entrance of the hall, and asked as he walked.

Xu Jingyang stood up and said, "That demon can control the demons to cause chaos. This method is clearly a magical power of the Huangquan Demon Sect. That demon is probably a disciple of the Huangquan Demon Sect."

Ye Lingxiao nodded and was about to speak, but something unexpected happened!
hum!
A pale stream of air visible to the naked eye passed through the sect's main hall and landed on top of Ye Lingxiao's head, instantly enveloping him completely. "Who is this? Su'er!"

Sensing the endless ominousness and resentment in this pale airflow, Ye Lingxiao's face changed drastically.

"not good!"

He shouted loudly, and without waiting for any move, dense ghost face runes fell down with strange laughter and rushed towards Ye Lingxiao.

"What a terrible ominous aura! This is a curse!"

Xu Jingyang was knowledgeable and experienced, and he could tell at a glance that these ghost face runes were an extremely vicious curse.

"open!"

Seeing the ghost face runes falling down, Ye Lingxiao naturally knew how powerful they were. He hurriedly manifested the Seven Killing Stars. A blood-red star appeared above his head, and clusters of scarlet murderous aura bloomed from the star, trying to resist the falling ghost face runes.

However, everything was in vain. When Zhang Qian faced these ghost face runes before, he had to use the magical power of the Demonic Pagoda that did not belong to this world to barely block them. Ye Lingxiao was only at the True Yuan realm now and had not achieved the Golden Core. His cultivation was one level lower than Meng Lingsu's. Moreover, he had no magical power or treasure to protect himself. In just a moment, the ghost face runes fell on him.

The murderous aura emitted by the Seven Killing Stars had no effect at all!
puff……!
When the rune fell, Ye Lingxiao immediately vomited blood, and his black hair turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Fear appeared in his eyes and he quickly flashed. A scarlet spirit sword appeared in his hand and sword rays shot out, trying to destroy these ghost face runes.

Unfortunately, the rune is the product of an invisible curse and is not affected by external forces at all. Unless it is offset by the power of luck, there is no way that the ghost face rune can be destroyed.

In just a short moment, Ye Lingxiao's black hair turned completely snow-white, dense wrinkles appeared on his face, and some dark age spots appeared. His body began to hunch over little by little, and a heavy aura of old age appeared on him, as if his lifespan would run out at any time and he would die here!
"help me!"

Seeing more and more ghost face runes coming, Ye Lingxiao knew that his life was about to come to an end. Although he didn't care about the lives of the Ye family members at all, he valued his own life more than anything else. He turned around with great difficulty, looked at Xu Jingyang with dim eyes, and cried for help.

"This...this...what should I do?!"

It was also the first time that Xu Jingyang had seen such a vicious curse. There were curse techniques, but compared with the terrible curse before him that could make people age instantly and exhaust their lifespan, Xu Jingyang felt that all the curses he had heard of before were simply child's play.

"Don't panic, my dear nephew. You and I have a deep connection in Mangcang Mountain. Although you are a disciple of Jianhu Palace, you are also half a Mangcang Mountain person. I will not stand by and watch you die. Tell me how to save you."

Xu Jingyang didn't dare let Ye Lingxiao die here like this. Ye Lingxiao was a person Li Qingcheng valued very much. If he died in the sect's hall like this, Li Qingcheng would definitely cause trouble.
