Chapter 341: The Past of Shenshan
Feng Yelei, the abandoned disciple of Qingxiao Sect, was captured and brought back by the Third Elder himself.
With the deliberate promotion of Kunshan Sect Master, the news quickly spread.
Many people who had made fun of Qingxiao Sect for this matter were stunned by how quickly they found Feng Yelei.
Feng Yelei, who was found, felt desperate and angry. He thought Wu Shao would protect him, but he didn't expect that the other party would abandon him so easily.
Although Feng Yelei didn't really regard Wushao as his master, betraying him and being abandoned by him are two different things.
Feng Yelei, who wanted to stay alive, had no choice but to use all his skills to save his life from the hands of Kunshan Sect Master.
He was even willing to exchange Wu Shao's death blood for it.
But the leader of Kunshan Sect ignored it. If someone else had said this, he might have given the other person a chance to live.
But Feng Yelei is really not trustworthy. The Kunshan Sect Master is also worried that if he saves him, this kid will cause even greater trouble in the future.
Some people’s lives should be saved, but Feng Yelei’s life cannot be saved.
Therefore, the Qingxiao Sect's action this time was very decisive. Not long after Feng Yelei was brought back, Song Xing dealt with him in front of all the disciples.
When Feng Yelei died, he never imagined that his life would end so soon.
Looking back on his life, he found that the happiest time for him was actually the days when he joined the Qingxiao Sect.
If he had not chosen to take Qin Tian as his master, or if he had not targeted Xie Liuyin and deliberately plotted against her because of Xie Mingzhu, would he not have ended up like this?
But in the end no one gave him an answer to this question. Feng Yelei closed his eyes and died completely.
The news of Feng Yelei's death eventually reached Wu Shao's ears. Wu Fen looked at him curiously and asked, "How's that? Are you sad to hear that your eldest disciple has died?"
Wu Shao sneered back, "Whether he lives or dies, it has nothing to do with me."
He had already handed the person over, and how to deal with him was the business of Qingxiao Sect. The most important thing in his mind at the moment was how to enter the sacred mountain.
Ever since the incident, the sacred mountain has been closed and no outsiders are allowed to enter.
Later, Wushao also tried to go in, but was rejected as soon as he approached. Like Wuju, he thought that the sacred mountain did not welcome them who had fallen into evil ways, but he never thought that the sacred mountain had been seriously damaged.
Wu Shao's injuries had mostly healed over the past two days, and he had dismissed all his original disciples. At first, those disciples didn't dare to leave, fearing that Wu Shao would do what he did last time, allowing others to leave but then turning around and sucking them dry.
Fearing that they would follow in the footsteps of those disciples, they cried and expressed their loyalty to Wushao, fearing that they would become the next dried corpse.
Wushao was annoyed by the noise, so he simply drove everyone out and told them not to appear in front of him again, otherwise he would suck them dry.
The disciples then realized that Wushao really wanted to let them go.
They looked at each other, then ran away quickly as if they had been reborn.
After clearing out everyone around them, Wushao and Wujue returned to the foot of the sacred mountain together.
The location of the sacred mountain is hidden, among several heavy mountains, and there are natural formations around it. People who are not familiar with this place will get lost before they even reach the foot of the sacred mountain. This is the barrier that the sacred mountain has set for itself.
Coming back here again after so many years, both of them couldn't hide their excitement.
They tried to get closer to the sacred mountain, and were surprised to find that the mountain was much less repulsive to them this time. Does this mean that the sacred mountain is slowly recovering?
As the two thought about this, they couldn't help but feel happy.
They tried again to squeeze into the sacred mountain, but still failed. The invisible barrier outside the sacred mountain was still there, and the entire sacred mountain was now shrouded in thick fog. They could not see the situation inside at all.
The little bit of joy that the two had just felt gradually disappeared, leaving only deep worry.
"What exactly is the core of the sacred mountain? Since this thing is so important to the sacred mountain, can we make another one for the sacred mountain?" Wu Fen asked tentatively.
Wushao didn't say anything. This core was really too mysterious. Their clan had lived in the sacred mountain for so many years and had never heard of such a thing as a core.
If Su Hai hadn't revealed these clues himself, the two of them would probably never have known about the existence of the core in their entire lives.
Seeing that they couldn't get in no matter what, the two tried several times and could only sigh helplessly and leave.
They planned to ask people living nearby to see if they had any legends about the sacred mountain.
It is not easy for mortals to survive in the world of cultivation. Some mortals like to live in big towns with the protection of cultivators, where there are more opportunities and a chance for them to soar to the sky.
But there are also people who are afraid of the monks and go directly into the deep mountains and forests. Although life is a little harder there, they don't have to worry about being involved in the fights among the monks.
There are also several such isolated villages around the sacred mountain. When the Wu tribe was still there, the several parties could exchange some things from time to time.
The Wu tribe was rich in spiritual medicines, and although those mortals could not practice, they had rare and good crafts. The Wu tribe liked the utensils they wove very much, and often exchanged them for spiritual medicines.
The parties got along harmoniously and lived in peace for a hundred years.
Wu Fen and the other man were actually not sure whether these mortals could remember anything, but they had no other choice now.
The two men acted separately, one of them targeted a village and brought some herbs in, hoping to exchange them for information.
The people in these villages are simple and honest. Although they are wary of outsiders, they immediately became enthusiastic when the two men took out the herbs.
After the two men became familiar with the villagers, they began to inquire about the news about the sacred mountain.
At first, the villagers didn't want to say it, but Wujue and Wushao had no choice but to discuss it and then tell them that they were descendants of the Wu tribe and that they were following the orders of their elders to come and find their ancestral land.
With this reason, the villagers' attitude became more enthusiastic than before, and they insisted on taking the two to their homes for dinner.
Wu Jue and the other man tried hard to refuse, and when they asked about the past of the sacred mountain again, the chiefs of the two villages showed them their respective village histories.
When these villages were being built, some people from the Wu tribe took the initiative to make friends with them and taught them to read.
The Wu man asked them to write down the village history and record the situation of the sacred mountain. He also said that if any descendants of the Wu people came one day, they should show them the village history.
The villagers felt grateful for the other party's kindness, and considering that recording the village history was a good thing, they naturally agreed.
It’s just that because so much time has passed, this agreement passed down from generation to generation has been treated as a story.
It was not until recently that Wu Fei and the other man came to see them that they finally remembered.
The village leaders placed dozens of thick volumes of village records in front of them and said, "Go and take a look, children. Maybe there's something you're looking for in there."
