508: C508 I Decline

C508 I Decline

Light King City was a city guarded by Duke Ming.

City Lord's Mansion was the residence of Duke Ming.

Within City Lord's Mansion, Duke Ming had absolute authority.

Even if Emperor Lee personally came to City Lord's Mansion, he had to maintain respect for Duke Ming.

After all, Duke Ming was someone with a different surname and still occupied the Light King City. With his back against the Hundred Thousand Mountain，, he guarded the border between the Lanqing Empire and the Lanqing Empire.

Speaking from a certain point of view, Duke Ming's position in the Light King City was equivalent to the emperor's, and no one could challenge him within the Light King City.

At this moment, Duke Ming personally asked Su Ling if he was willing to compete with the First Prince.

If Su Ling knew what was good for him, even if he knew what he was doing, he had to agree to this match. Because this was something that Duke Ming had personally come forward to ask.

At that instant, almost everyone in the hall cast their gazes towards Su Ling and waited for his answer.

Su Ling's lips curled up into a smile. His eyes were half closed as he played with a white wine cup in his hand. His gaze was still fixed on Duke Ming.

Shan Changkong was overjoyed. This time, the First Prince had personally made a move and invited Su Ling to battle. As long as Su Ling agreed, then Wu Tie would definitely die.

Thinking of this, the smile on Shan Changkong's face became even wider.

"Su Ling, oh Su Ling, how can you not die this time?"

Shan Changkong snorted. He frowned and said indifferently.

Su Ling's expression did not change. After all, he had lived two lifetimes and could guess what Duke Ming wanted to do. He just wanted to test his bottom line and the limits of his strength.

Previously, Su Ling and the First Prince had almost clashed in the courtyard. At that time, Duke Ming had been waiting in the main hall, so he could hear everything clearly.

However, Duke Ming forcefully suppressed his curiosity and didn't choose to come forward.

Only after Su Ling and the First Prince had 'settled the grudge' did Duke Ming stand out and become the peacemaker. It had to be said that this Duke Ming, who was in charge of the Light King City, not only had a tyrannical strength, but also had a good scheme in mind.

"How is it? Su Ling, how are your thoughts? After all, the First Prince is still a prince. It's your honor to be able to fight against him. "

Duke Ming frowned and asked again.

However, during this interrogation, Duke Ming's tone was much more forceful, and he hoped that Su Ling would accept the First Prince's invitation to battle.

Su Ling stared at Duke Ming without blinking. He placed the wine cup on the table and then stood up. He smiled at Duke Ming and said, "I reject it."

"Hmm?"

Hearing this, Duke Ming was immediately startled, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Standing in the main hall, Cultivating Warrior was also at a loss.

What did Su Ling just say?

Reject?!

One had to know that Duke Ming's tone of voice was very forceful. It was obvious that he wanted to force Su Ling to agree to the duel with the First Prince.

In other words, Duke Ming hoped that Su Ling would commit suicide on his own accord.

"Is this guy crazy? This is the Light King City, he dares to even refuse Duke Ming's request, could it be that he wants to be executed by Duke Ming? "

"Exactly! In the City Lord's Mansion, he still dared to reject Duke Ming? No wonder everyone said that Su Ling was extremely arrogant. He had always looked down on others. Now, it seemed that it was indeed true. Right now, he doesn't even put Duke Ming in his eyes, he's simply courting death. "

The surroundings were filled with heated discussions.

Shan Changkong and Elder Feng both had a cold smile on their faces. This Su Ling was indeed used to being arrogant. Now he didn't even put Duke Ming in his eyes. This was courting death!

Elder Bai Qing was also shocked. He was able to protect Su Ling from the First Prince, Shan Changkong, and the others, but this did not mean that he could protect Su Ling from City Lord's Mansion, or from Duke Ming.

As the saying goes, one has no choice but to lower one's head when faced with a house. But now, not to mention lowering his head, even if he had to bend his waist, Su Ling would not be willing to.

"Su Ling, since the First Prince is sincerely inviting you to compete, then compete with him! In any case, the First Prince has always had a merciful heart. Even if you lose, he won't kill you. "

Elder Bai Qing suddenly stood up and quickly walked to the side of Su Ling as he said in a deep voice.

"That's right, Su Ling. The First Prince will definitely not kill you." Just agree to the competition with the First Prince! "

At this time, Shan Changkong, Vice President also nodded his head. A fierce look flashed across his eyes as he advised.

The First Prince won't kill Su Ling?

This was a huge joke!

Su Ling's killing of Eunuch Jin was tantamount to cutting off the First Prince's right hand and then mercilessly slapping the First Prince's face. How could the First Prince not seek revenge on Su Ling?

On the surface, this competition seemed like a competition, but in reality, it was a slaughter game! As long as Su Ling agreed to the duel with the First Prince, the First Prince would use any means possible to kill Su Ling.

At that time, so what if the First Prince kills Su Ling? It was already a matter of life and death in the duel between the two. Killing Su Ling by mistake, what kind of crime was that?

"Shan Changkong, shut up!"

Elder Bai Qing was a little angry. He should have expected that these bastards would deliberately target Su Ling at this banquet.

However, he did not expect this group of people to be so despicable and shameless. They actually teamed up to encourage Su Ling to accept the First Prince's invitation to battle.

What's the difference between this and letting Su Ling die?

He was, after all, Cultivator of Heavenly Martial Stage, and Su Ling had just stepped into the Genuine Martial Stage not too long ago. With Su Ling's strength, how could he possibly fight with the First Prince?

Even if the First Prince said that he would definitely suppress his cultivation level to fight Su Ling to ensure fairness, once the battle erupted and the First Prince broke his promise and killed Su Ling, who could stop him?

All of these factors could potentially cause Su Ling's death.

However, right now, Duke Ming had personally requested Su Ling to fight with the First Prince, which placed Elder Bai Qing in a dilemma.

However, after some consideration, Elder Bai Qing still decided that the possibility of Su Ling surviving the battle with the First Prince was greater than that of Duke Ming killing Su Ling himself.

Therefore, Elder Bai Qing could only advise Su Ling to agree to a duel with the First Prince. When the battle began, he would do his best to ensure Su Ling's safety.

"Su Ling, first agree to the First Prince's request, don't contradict Duke Ming here, and moreover, don't anger Duke Ming here. Otherwise, this is true death without a doubt! "

Elder Bai Qing deliberately lowered his voice. He knew that Su Ling's personality was upright and that things that he had made up his mind would be hard to change. Thus, he tried to persuade him in a low voice.

Su Ling knew that Elder Bai Qing wanted him to accept the challenge for his own good. He looked at Elder Bai Qing with gratitude, then turned to Duke Ming and seriously said, "I refuse."

Su Ling's voice was not loud, but his tone was firm and unquestionable. His eyes, especially, and that unwavering gaze, let people clearly feel his determination.

Yes, he had refused. He had refused to compete with the First Prince.

"You should know what it means to offend me within this City Lord's Mansion?"

Duke Ming's gaze immediately darkened. Su Ling was really too ignorant, and even though he had Martial Arts Talents s, he was too arrogant and uninhibited. Duke Ming didn't like Su Ling's attitude at all.2
