Chapter 40: The Covenant of the Duel

"Elder, it's not a secret, the reason why the disciple will take in Xue Mo is because this Xue Mo Lingzhi has already opened her mouth and can speak, and there is no place to live, so she will follow the disciple, and please forgive the elder!"

As a last resort, Asura had no choice but to tell the truth in a deep voice, hoping that the three elders would let him continue to raise Xuemo.

However, Asura never expected that when the third elder learned that Shelley's mind had been opened, his eyes quickly flashed with a trace of heat, and when he looked at Shelley's eyes, he was even more reluctant to move away.

The third elder looked around, and the third elder said unabashedly: "Shura, this elder won't beat around the bush with you, the reason why I asked Tang Lin to help me catch this Xuemo is all because when I have been cultivating for many years, because I was too eager for quick success, some uncontrollable soul fire penetrated into my heart, and I would be in great pain every noon, and only Xuemo's blood could help me cure my hidden disease, I said that, you understand?"

At this time, Asura was no longer the simple boy he used to be, he naturally understood the meaning of the words of the three elders, and immediately refused: "No elder! I can't let you do this! If it were an ordinary snow dog, it would be just an ordinary snow dog, but Shelley has the wisdom and can already speak human words, this will not work anyway, and please let the elder let Shelley go!"

After hearing Asura's words, the faces of the three elders immediately became gloomy.

"Asura, don't be ignorant, do you know that the Third Elder and his old man have made great contributions to our sect at the beginning!"

Tang Lin on the side saw that the faces of the three elders had changed drastically, so he stood up and said, "Do you think that we are so carefree to manipulate the flame warlocks? The Law and Martial Alliance is eyeing each other, and we are fighting with each other for resources, if it weren't for this, the three elders would not be so eager to improve their cultivation, and do you just look at the elders and his old man, and have to endure the torment of this hidden disease every day?"

Indeed, what Tang Lin said was all the truth, needless to say, the contradictions between the Legal-Martial Alliance and the Flame Warlocks, the battles between the Flame Warlocks were all caused by the competition for cultivation resources.

For example, Cao Yan**, flames and other important things, especially flames, this is the most scarce resource for Cao Yan Warlocks, they are all controlled by the two major academies on the continent, and the flames are distributed according to the ranking of the subordinate sects, so it will cause a fight between the Cao Yan sects.

Just imagine, a sect that doesn't have a suitable fusion flame, can it survive?

Immediately, Tang Lin explained the powerful relationship to Asura in detail, and after Asura heard it, he also wanted to help the three elders very much, but Shelley was a living life, and for the hidden disease of the three elders, he had to sacrifice Shelley, which Asura couldn't do!

Seeing that Asura suddenly became silent, both the Third Elder and Tang Lin felt in their hearts that Asura's will must have been shaken!

However, Asura suddenly said: "Elder, I still can't promise you, Shelley is a life after all, forgive me for being unreasonable." Your injuries are troublesome, but they're life-threatening!"

When the three elders heard this, they immediately said angrily: "What do you know, do you know that in the sect, the strength of the elders is high, but it is related to the life and death of our sect, the great elder has been in retreat for many years, the second elder is always idle and ignorant of trivial matters, the tenth elder died in the conflict between the two cities of Fengdu and Huo, plus I am suffering from a hidden disease, there are only six of the elders with complete combat strength, the stakes are not what you, a beginner disciple, can understand!"

And Tang Lin next to him interjected and said: "There is less than a year left until the next rookie competition, if we can't get the ranking, our Xuanhuo Sect will not be able to participate in the Caoyan Sect ranking battle, once our ranking drops, the days after this will be self-evident!"

"Elder, I remember that all the disciples participated in this ranked battle?"

"The number of disciples who will fight is determined by drawing lots, whether you can draw a good lot, it depends on the skill of the elders, and good lots are all used to grab them, you know!"

After Asura understood, he pleaded bitterly and said, "Elder, you can rest assured, I will definitely let our Xuanhuo Sect win the next competition, as for your hidden disease, I will definitely find a way to cure it, please believe me, Elder!"

When Tang Lin heard this, he said, "What are you talking about? You just want to win the competition? What are you dreaming about? The last time we sent three descendant disciples, we were only worthy of winning the fifth place!"

"Elder, rest assured, disciple is confident that as long as you can achieve victory, what you are worried about will not happen, and in this way, Shelley will not have to die!"

"You are doing everything possible to save the life of this beast, it can be seen that you are also a kind-hearted child, but you are just getting started, you can't talk nonsense!"

It is true that if Asura wants to win on his own, no one will believe it, but Asura is well aware of his cultivation and potential, and with the Phoenix Nirvana Fire and the Five Elements of Yin and Yang Technique, Asura has this certainty!

"Elder, it's true that the disciple is just getting started, but in order to make you believe my words, I want to challenge Senior Brother Tang Lin, if I can defeat him, would you consider granting my request?"

When the third elder heard this, he immediately had a plan, and replied: "Boy, Tang Lin has been cultivating for several years, and you are just getting started, so you want to defeat him?" Okay, if you can do it, I will promise you to leave this beast alive, otherwise you will do as I say!"

After a long time, when the Asura threw out this attractive opinion, the three elders finally relented and agreed!

"In that case, you should try it now, let's go to the fighting fire arena, let all the disciples be a witness, as long as you can defeat Tang Lin, it will prove that you are indeed a genius, and I will agree to your request!"

Even Tang Lin's cultivation was a shallow third elder, so he was naturally very relieved about the battle between the two, he didn't believe that Asura could really defeat Tang Lin!

"Tang Lin, you're okay, right? Your little junior brother is going to challenge you, if you lose, you won't be able to raise your head. ”

Looking at Tang Lin on the side, the third elder spoke.

And Tang Lin smiled slightly and said, "Elder, don't worry, although this Asura is a little weird, but this time I will do my best, no matter how much he tosses, he will not be able to win me." ”

"That's good!"

The three elders held their beards, and Tang Lin and Asura followed behind. , Walking towards the fighting fire field, along the way, the news spread far and wide, and a large number of disciples all watched this duel with great interest, and they were very curious about where this new Asura got the courage to challenge Tang Lin, who had been practicing for many years!
