Chapter 530 Too Lazy to Kill
Chapter 530 Too Lazy to Kill
With his path blocked, Ling Yi wasn't in a hurry. He stood there and waited for the guards who had entered the courtyard to come out.
The guards entered the courtyard and saw a scene of utter devastation, a testament to the intensity of the previous battle. Strangely, apart from the ruined courtyard, they saw no one else.
Neither the domain lord nor the elders who arrived earlier were there!
That's strange. Even if someone died, there should be a body, but there isn't one in the courtyard!
The guards searched the courtyard thoroughly, leaving no corner unchecked, but even so, they found no body, let alone any living person!
Having searched the courtyard to no avail, the guards had no choice but to leave. Once outside, they looked at Ling Yi, who had been stopped by their men, and asked coldly, "Why are you the only one who came out of the Domain Lord's courtyard? Where are the Domain Lord and the elders?"
"Them..." Under the expectant gazes of the guards, Ling Yi chuckled lightly and said casually, "They're dead."
died! ?
Upon hearing this, the guards' expressions changed. Although they had all heard the commotion, they assumed the lord and elders were safe because of their strength and the lack of corpses. Now that they heard someone say they were dead, the guards immediately pressed for an answer: "Who did it?"
Ling Yi pointed to himself: "I did it."
The guards were startled and involuntarily stepped back.
If the lord and elders were truly killed by the person before them, they were no match for him at all!
The captain of the guards looked at his subordinates with a cold expression as they retreated.
The guards met their captain's gaze and lowered their heads. If the Domain Lord and the elders were still alive, they would not back down even if they were afraid of death. But now that the Domain Lord was dead, and even the Domain Lord and the elders could not defeat the person in front of them, it would be no different for them to force their way in than to commit suicide. There was no need for them to do so.
The captain of the guards knew what they were thinking, but now was not the time to teach them a lesson. So he simply gave them a cold glance and then looked at Ling Yi: "Why did you kill the Domain Lord and the others?"
Do you know the consequences of killing the domain lord?
"So what if we killed them? What consequences could there be?" Ling Yi said casually. "As for why we killed them, they deserved to die."
After hearing the answer, the captain was at a loss for words and simply ordered, "Take him down!"
"This..." The other guards hesitated, looking at the guard captain: "Are we really going to make a move?"
They are no match for us. To attack under these circumstances would be suicide.
The captain of the guards looked at them: "The Domain Lord has been murdered. If the real culprit is caught, he can still give an explanation. If not, how do you think the Second Domain Lord and the First Domain Lord will deal with the guards of the Domain Lord's Mansion?"
The guards pursed their lips and remained silent. No matter what they did, they couldn't be killed. After all, even the three domain lords couldn't defeat them, so what could these guards do?
The guards remained motionless. The captain of the guards wanted to reprimand them, but before he could speak, he heard Ling Yi say, "If you want to capture me, you can do it yourself. Why force others to do it?"
"Or are you afraid of dying, too scared to go up, so you send them up and let them die?"
The captain of the guards was not afraid of death. The reason he forced the others to go was because he couldn't stand their spineless appearance. But he didn't expect that Ling Yi would think he was afraid of death.
Those words greatly displeased the captain of the guards, and he immediately attacked Ling Yi without regard for the other guards.
Seeing the captain of the guards attack, Ling Yi went straight to meet him, while the other guards quickly retreated to the side.
The captain of the guards was far less powerful than the three domain lords and the elders. Under the time constraint, he had no way to dodge like the three domain lords and was quickly injured by Ling Yi.
After injuring the person, Ling Yi stepped aside.
After being injured, the captain of the guard thought he was going to die, but unexpectedly Ling Yi stepped back. He didn't know why Ling Yi stepped back, but the fact that she didn't kill him directly was giving him a chance.
Thinking of this, the captain of the guard ignored his wound and attacked Ling Yi again with his weapon in hand.
Ling Yi stood still, coldly watching the captain of the guard.
Seeing that Ling Yi didn't move, the captain of the guard felt that his chance had come. Just as he was getting excited, a sharp pain came from his shoulder, and then his hand felt like it was broken, and he couldn't hold his weapon.
"Captain, your shoulder..." the guards watching from the sidelines called out.
Sensing something was wrong, the captain of the guards quickly looked at the wound, and what he saw shocked him.
His shoulders were melting...
"How could this be?" Seeing the melting speed accelerating, the guard captain turned to Ling Yi and shouted sternly, "What have you done!?"
"Just a little poison." Ling Yi looked at the captain of the guards: "Didn't you want to know where your domain lord is?"
"You will soon be able to find your domain lord in the same way."
After saying that, Ling Yi looked at the guards beside him and said, "Keep a close eye on things, so that you won't be at a loss for words when someone asks you questions."
The guards were surprised to hear Ling Yi say this: "You, you're not going to kill us?"
Ling Yi looked at them and said, "If you don't make a move, I naturally won't kill you."
The guards breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. Since Ling Yi didn't make a move, their lives were spared. However, they didn't know that Ling Yi didn't kill them for two reasons: first, she needed someone to spread the news that she had killed the Three Domain Lords; and second, she had already backed down from the start, had no malicious intent, and was too lazy to kill them.
After Ling Yi finished speaking, he ignored the guards and flew away.
After Ling Yi left, the guards watched helplessly as their captain turned into a pool of black water, leaving not a trace of flesh or bone behind...
