Chapter 133

Chapter 133: Let the Junior Sister Go, I’ll Be Your Hostage!

Jiang Qitian sliced through the demonic formation with his sword, startling Li Kaitian away.

He had exhausted himself and couldn’t manage another strike.

Meanwhile, Ming He and Yin Yue, two powerful figures from the dark arts, directly abducted Jiang Ting.

This was not going to end well!

Jiang Qitian issued a command, and the high-ranking members of the Qingyang Sword Sect swiftly took flight on their swords, pursuing the two.

Sword lights cut through the black night sky, shooting towards Ming He and Yin Yue like shooting stars.

The Elder Qinglian, Elder Fang Tang, and Elder Gu Feng merged their energies with their swords, leading the charge.

The lights from the three elders were the most dazzling and powerful.

Ming He and Yin Yue desperately attempted to escape, utilizing their fleeing light.

They were already wounded, and carrying Jiang Ting made it even harder.

Before long, they were caught up by the three Qingyang Sword Sect elders.

At that moment, a streak of sword light surged from the mountains ahead, blocking the exit for the two dark figures.

Forced to land on a cliff, Ming He and Yin Yue had no choice but to take Jiang Ting with them.

“It’s the Holy Son…”

The three elders were both surprised and delighted; they certainly didn’t expect Xiao Yang to appear right then, intercepting the two big bads.

At that moment, the sky and ground were filled with sword lights.

Ming He and Yin Yue were cornered at the cliff by the elite of the Qingyang Sword Sect.

Jiang Qitian swooped down onto the cliff.

The three elders positioned themselves around to prevent the two dark figures from escaping.

“Release her!”

Jiang Qitian fixed his cold gaze onto Yin Yue, who held Jiang Ting captive.

“Do you think we’re stupid? Let her go, and you’ll just kill us?”

Ming He scoffed.

With Jiang Ting as their shield, they felt as though they had a fighting chance.

This time, they really messed up.

Despite all their plans, they never expected Jiang Qitian to arrive so quickly.

And he had brought the Qingyang Sword with him too.

In truth, they had miscalculated how much Jiang Qitian valued his daughter and the force of the Qingyang Sword Sect’s team in the Jiazi Grand Competition.

The entire sect held this competition in the utmost regard.

This was why, upon receiving news, Jiang Qitian immediately summoned the sect’s experts, nearly emptying their ranks.

At this moment, the Qingyang Sword Sect was more united than ever.

Meanwhile, Jiang Ting had been roused by Yin Yue.

“Dad…help me…”

Jiang Ting cried out as she struggled.

“You better let her go, or you’ll wish you hadn’t.”

Xiao Yang spoke nonchalantly.

“Xiao Yang, the Holy Son of the Qingyang Sword Sect?”

Ming He glared hatefully at the young man in white.

This was the guy who forced their young master to kill his own uncle, Li Kuang.

Ming He would love to tear Xiao Yang apart and feed him to the dogs.

Yin Yue coldly regarded Xiao Yang.

“Senior Brother, save me…”

Jiang Ting looked at Xiao Yang, almost on the verge of tears.

Xiao Yang saw Jiang Ting’s pained expression and felt nothing but calm within himself.

This was nothing compared to the pain and suffering he endured in his previous life.

“Disciple, how could you abandon your fellow disciples?”

Jiang Qitian’s anger flared as he saw Xiao Yang’s inaction.

“Didn’t they have the Transmission Elder protecting them?”

Xiao Yang shrugged.

“You’re their senior brother; it’s your responsibility to protect them!”

Jiang Qitian chastised fiercely.

“Who will protect me if I protect them?”

Xiao Yang retorted dismissively.

“Disciple, what nonsense are you spouting?”

Jiang Qitian was infuriated.

Xiao Yang remained silent. In his past life, he cared too much for his junior sister and fellow disciples, and also cared for his parents and sister, which ultimately led to his tragic end at the hands of Qin Fei.

When he needed protection, what did they do for him?

Not only did they not protect him, but they also kept handing knives to Qin Fei.

During his final battle with Qin Fei, even his childhood friend Jiang Ting sacrificed herself to protect Qin Fei.

When had they ever protected him like that?

With this thought, Xiao Yang’s fists clenched tightly.

“Hey, hey, hey, are you putting on a drama here?”

Ming He grumbled impatiently.

“As the Sect Leader of Qingyang Sword Sect, I guarantee you, let my daughter go, and I will let you leave.”

Jiang Qitian shot a stern look at Ming He.

“No way, you all step aside, and we’ll let your daughter go once we’re safe.”

Ming He shook his head.

“Preposterous! Our Sect Leader’s words are as good as gold, and you don’t believe him?”

Fang Tang roared in anger.

“Humph!”

Ming He sneered twice, “We trust nobody; we only trust ourselves.”

This was a matter of life and death; they’d have to be brain-dead to trust Jiang Qitian.

“You better step aside, or I’ll kill her!”

Yin Yue tightened her grip around Jiang Ting’s neck; with just a squeeze, Jiang Ting’s face turned red as she struggled to breathe.

“Go ahead, if you kill her, you won’t be able to survive either.”

Xiao Yang replied indifferently.

“Senior Brother, you…”

Jiang Ting looked at Xiao Yang with teary eyes.

Xiao Yang saw Jiang Ting’s sorrow but remained utterly unbothered.

This wasn’t even close to the pain he suffered in his past life.

“Disciple, you’ve crossed the line!”

Jiang Qitian was furious.

The others exchanged glances, surprised at the drastic change in their Holy Son.

Everyone knew Xiao Yang was infatuated with Jiang Ting; it was common knowledge in the Qingyang Sword Sect.

How much did Xiao Yang care for her? There were even whispers in the sect that he was Jiang Ting’s loyal dog, following her every command, doing whatever she said without complaint.

But now, Xiao Yang had changed.

“Do you truly believe I wouldn’t dare to kill her?”

Yin Yue was enraged.

“No, no, no… how about this, you let my Junior Sister go, and I’ll be your hostage instead, how about it?”

Qin Fei hurriedly chimed in.

“Junior Brother…”

Jiang Ting’s eyes immediately brimmed with tears upon hearing this.

It was good to have a Junior Brother who cared for her.
