Oh no! I, the weakling, have become the villain!

Chapter 426 You're Too Ruthless

"So, in order to avoid being discovered, you simply killed the entire Lin family," Xu Yao said.

“She forced me to do it. It’s all her fault, all that wicked woman’s fault. I just pinched her once, and that wicked woman died.”

"What can I do? I have no way out. I don't want to kill anyone." The Sixth Elder burst into tears as he said this.

At this moment, Han Xi looked at the Sixth Elder in front of him and said, "Sixth Elder, to be honest, you know what's going on now."

"It's not about what I want to do, but for me, there's nothing more to say about this."

"I have no interest in what you want to do. Since you've killed someone, then we'll follow the rules of my Hanshan Sword Sect."

"Xu Yao, I'm entrusting the Sixth Elder to you. I, as the sect leader, will no longer be involved," Han Xi said.

Hearing what Han said, Xu Yao nodded: "Okay, in that case, let's leave it at that."

"I originally thought this matter would be difficult to investigate, but now that the Sixth Elder has admitted it."

"Alright, leave this matter to me. You can rest assured, Sect Master Han."

The Korean faction didn't say much. Since the Sixth Elder himself had admitted it, what else was there to say?

In short, there was nothing more the Korean brands could do, so they left on their own.

After Han left, Xu Yao looked at the Sixth Elder and said, "Sixth Elder, things have come to this."

"What do you think we should do next? I do have other ideas, but you also need to know that this matter is not as simple as you think."

"Now that you've admitted it yourself, there's no need for us to waste any more time," Xu Yao said.

"Are all the heroes of the world waiting for an answer? Why don't you come with me to see them?"

Upon hearing Xu Yao's words, the Sixth Elder also said, "Brother Xu Yao, please don't take me to see those heroes of the world."

"In the end, this is a matter within my Lin family. After all, I was the one who committed the crime. Although I killed someone, it is still a family matter of my Lin family."

"Take me somewhere, and I'll take care of things first. Once that's done, I'll go with you to the Lin family, in front of all the heroes of the world."

"How about I settle this matter for you?" the Sixth Elder said.

Upon hearing the Sixth Elder's words, Xu Yao nodded and said, "Okay, I can agree to this."

"But Sixth Elder, I hope you know that you'd better not try to fool me with your reasoning. If I find out that you're lying to me, then things won't be so simple."

“Let’s go. Where do you want to go? I’ll take you there,” Xu Yao said.

Xu Yao was indifferent now; things had already come to this point, and the Sixth Elder couldn't escape either.

Besides, why would he worry that he really couldn't take this person with him? So Xu Yao didn't care at all.

That's why Xu Yao took the Sixth Elder to the place he wanted to go.

Soon, the Sixth Elder led Xu Yao to the tomb. Upon seeing the tomb, Xu Yao became curious.

Whose grave is this?

"This is the grave of Xu Changfeng, the owner of the Changfeng Sword in your hand," the Sixth Elder said.

"Why did you bring me here?" Xu Yao asked curiously.

Upon hearing Xu Yao's words, the Sixth Elder then said, "I brought you here because the Long Wind Sword is in your hands."

"What do you mean?" Xu Yao asked curiously.

“This Changfeng Sword originally belonged to Xu Changfeng, and you should return it to its rightful owner,” the Sixth Elder said.

Xu Yao was somewhat reluctant to part with it. Strictly speaking, although the Changfeng Sword was not as good as his own Zhanlong Sword, it was still a good sword.

Imagine having something you've already got, and then having to give it up—that's incredibly painful. Who could accept that? Absolutely no one could.

However, these are not the main points. The main point is that there are many things that are beyond our control right now. If things are not handled well, then all our efforts will be in vain.

Therefore, Xu Yao also said to the Sixth Elder, "I say that although this Changfeng Sword belongs to Xu Changfeng, he is dead after all."

"Why bother? Besides, if you want me to leave it here, what if someone else comes and takes the Long Wind Sword away?"

"Wouldn't that be harming someone? I don't think this is that simple. I can't give you the Changfeng Sword." Xu Yao refused directly.

At this moment, the Sixth Elder said directly, "I know you are unwilling, but Brother Xu Yao."

"This Long Wind Sword should also be returned to its owner, if I remember correctly."

“This Long Wind Sword has a sword spirit. Why don’t you let the sword spirit choose for itself?” the Sixth Elder said.

Xu Yao was left with no other choice. He steeled himself and pulled out the Long Wind Sword: "Fine, fine, here you go."

After speaking, Xu Yao placed the Changfeng Sword directly into a socket, and the sword made a clanging sound.

A beam of white light shone out, and the light was so bright that it was blinding to Xu Yao.

Upon seeing such a dazzling light, Xu Yao asked, "What is the Long Wind Sword trying to do?"

"It is naturally overjoyed to have found its master, but it seems that the Long Wind Sword intends to stay with its master forever," said the Sixth Elder.

Xu Yao didn't understand what it meant, but just then, the blade of the Long Wind Sword suddenly cracked.

Xu Yao realized from these words that the sword spirit of the Long Wind Sword must have missed its master so much that it had ended up like this.

So Xu Yao had nothing to say, and simply said, "I don't know what to do about this either."

"But since it has come to this, there's nothing more to say. In any case, it's Changfeng Sword's own choice."

"I have nothing more to say, it's just a perfectly good sword."

Xu Yao was naturally heartbroken, because the Changfeng Sword was now completely shattered, and its original white light was slowly fading away.

Seeing this, Xu Yao could only look helplessly at the Long Wind Sword in front of him. Although he was unwilling, he decided to accept it.

At this moment, after the Sixth Elder placed the remains of the Long Wind Sword into the grave, he bowed to the owner of the grave.

Then, the Sixth Elder said to Xu Yao, "The matter is settled. Let's go to the Lin family."

“I know you’ve always wanted me to go to the Lin family, and now is the time for us to go.”

Xu Yao nodded. Although he wasn't entirely sure how things were going to go, at least he was going to the Lin family.
