The breath of death hung in the air, and the fleeing Tai Su Sect disciples felt as if they were instantly trapped in a furnace of fire, and let out roars of fear and pain.
Just as Yun Che, in a rage, was about to burn them all to ashes, Su Hengshan’s rapid roar rang out from behind him: “Yun Che! Don’t hurt them!”
Yun Che paused for a moment, but only for a moment. He immediately flipped his palm and the flames in the air blasted down mercilessly.
“Stop… Stop!!!”
This roar almost tore Su Hengshan’s throat… Instantly, the flames in the sky stopped there. Yun Che’s expression changed. Amid the suffocation of everyone’s fear, he finally took a deep breath and retracted his palm.
The flames in the sky were extinguished. The Tai Sumen people were instantly freed from the terrifying hell furnace. They all fell to the ground, trembling all over.
Su Hengshan's lips trembled, and then he said painfully: "Let them go. The four words "Seven Star Divine Mansion" are too scary. They are also forced to do so. If not for their own lives, they must also save their entire family... their crime does not deserve death."
“The crime is not punishable by death?” Yun Che asked in a deep voice: “Does it mean that you deserve death? Do those disciples whose bodies were found in the bamboo forest deserve to die?”
"All those who were truly loyal to the Tai Su Sect died tragically, but those who betrayed the sect, betrayed their ancestors, murdered their own sect master and fellow disciples, and served as dogs for others should be allowed to live?"
Thinking of those fellow disciples who stood in front of him and fell one by one in the blood, Su Hengshan felt pain in his heart and tears in his eyes: "The result today is mainly due to my incompetence as the sect leader and my poor parenting. They were unkind to me, and I can't be unjust to them. Too many people have died in the Taisu Sect... Let them go..."
Yun Che's words made all the Tai Su Sect disciples bow their heads, and Su Hengshan's words made them tremble all over, ashamed to death, and almost ashamed.
Since Yun Che had already taken back the Golden Crow Flame, he had no intention of continuing to attack and kill them all. He glanced around with a cold gaze, and said in an extremely gloomy tone: "Kowtow ten times to Sect Master Su, and then you can get out! From now on, don't say that you are from the Tai Su Sect!"
Yun Che's words were undoubtedly a pardon. All the Tai Su Sect disciples fell to their knees in panic and kowtowed heavily to Su Hengshan... They kowtowed especially heavily, not only for the sake of their lives, but also because of the gratitude and shame in their hearts.
"Master, we are sorry for you. We are worse than pigs and dogs. We will never have the face to see you again. Please... take care of yourself!"
"Master, we will repay your kindness in the next life by working like slaves for you..."
Some of the Tai Su Sect disciples were already in tears after they kowtowed, some kowtowed dozens of times and hit their heads until they were bleeding. Some of them kowtowed to Su Hengshan in farewell, while others were too ashamed to look him in the face.
Soon, they stepped back and then quickly dispersed. Yun Che watched them escape with cold eyes and did not stop them.
Su Haoran, Su Hengyue, and Su Wangji huddled together, trying to escape cautiously, but a heavy, cold aura suddenly pressed down upon them, freezing them in place.
“Did I tell you to leave?” Yun Che’s sinister and chilling voice sounded from behind them.
The three of them turned around trembling, their legs were so weak that they could fall to the ground at any time, and their lips moved continuously, but no sound came out.
“Su Hengyue, Su Wangji,” Yun Che stared at the two pale-faced people with a sinister look in his eyes. “Six years ago, the two of you joined forces with Blackwood Castle to threaten Sect Master Su. Your behavior was tantamount to betrayal. It would not be an exaggeration to kill you on the spot. However, Sect Master Su was concerned about his fellow disciples and not only did he not take the opportunity to punish you severely, he even directly let it go without pursuing the matter. Not only are you ungrateful, but you actually did this shameful act of ungratefulness!”
“And you, Su Haoran.” Yun Che gritted his teeth. “As the young master of the Tai Su Sect, you killed your fellow disciples and your own father for your own selfish reasons, and destroyed the Tai Su Sect’s hundreds of years of foundation. You are completely devoid of conscience and worse than pigs and dogs. You deserve to be struck by lightning! How dare you live in this world!!”
Su Haoran trembled all over, then he suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Su Hengshan: "Dad, I was wrong... I really know I was wrong, save me... save me... Dad!!"
“You still have the nerve to call me dad?” Yun Che slowly approached them, dozens of ways to make them die in the most painful way flashed through his mind: “Master Su has a son like you, and Ling’er has a brother like you. It is really the greatest shame of their lives!”
“You guys go.” Su Hengshan’s dejected voice rang out from behind Yun Che, causing his body to suddenly pause.
"Don't ever appear in front of me again... I never want to see you again." Su Hengshan lowered his eyes and his voice was vague, as if he was talking to himself.
“…” Yun Che’s footsteps stopped there, his face hard and cold.
Su Hengshan's words made Su Haoran and the other two almost unable to believe their ears. The three of them widened their eyes, trembling as they stood up, tentatively taking a few steps back... and then suddenly, like three dogs with their tails cut off, they tumbled and crawled away.
Yun Che stood still and did not chase after him. After a long while, he turned around and came to Su Hengshan.
Su Hengshan slumped on the ground, his head drooping in his messy hair. He murmured, “Yun Che, you must be looking down on me now… Hehe…” He laughed miserably, “If it were any other sect leader, they would have long wished they could tear them into pieces with their own hands, but I… I can’t do it…”
"Over the years, I have always been concerned about my fellow disciples and lineages, and have compromised and given in step by step, thinking that this way I can influence everyone. As expected, I am... not worthy of being the leader of this sect. If it weren't for my soft-heartedness and indecision, the Taisu Sect would not have come to this day in my hands..."
Su Hengshan's shoulders twitched and tears streamed down his face.
“…” Yun Che did not deny Su Hengshan’s words, because as early as six years ago, he had seen that Su Hengshan was soft-hearted.
“Master Su, you may not be suitable to be the leader of a sect, but at least, you are a respectable person, and you have a clear conscience for what you have done in this life.” Yun Che said sincerely.
The twitching in Su Hengshan's shoulders stopped. He raised his head and looked at Yun Che steadily: "Yun Che, are you here for Ling'er this time? Do you still... remember what you said six years ago? Are you still willing... to take care of Ling'er?"
Yun Che six years ago had given him a sense of being too far away and unreal. Today's Yun Che was even more powerful to a degree that he could never understand in his lifetime. In between, there was another six long years, and he really didn't dare to hope that such a person would still be willing to marry his ordinary daughter.
“I remember. Of course I remember.” Yun Che nodded very vigorously. “I have not returned all these years because… because of irresistible difficulties. But in these six years, I have been thinking about Ling’er all the time. Don’t worry, I will go find Ling’er right away. No matter what, even if I have to risk my life, I will bring Ling’er back safely.”
“Okay… okay!” Su Hengshan’s eyes became wet with excitement again. He could feel the sincerity and concern in Yun Che’s voice and eyes…Since Yun Che was willing to kill everyone in the Seven Star Divine Mansion for him and Su Ling’er, he had no reason not to believe him.
Su Hengshan stretched out his hand and took out a small crystal from his chest. The crystal was diamond-shaped and emitted a faint purple light.
“What is this?” Yun Che asked subconsciously.
“This is Ling’er’s soul crystal,” Su Hengshan said softly, and then he carefully and gently placed it in Yun Che’s hand. His solemn expression seemed to have given his entire world to him: “As long as the soul crystal is not broken, it proves that Ling’er is still alive. If Ling’er is nearby, its light will shine even brighter... Please, you must find Ling’er.”
Ling'er's...soul crystal!
Yun Che gently held it in his hand and nodded solemnly: “Okay, don’t worry, I will definitely bring Ling’er back safely.”
“Okay, okay.” Su Hengshan nodded gently, and finally a relieved smile appeared on his face: “I will entrust Ling’er… to you.”
Yun Che was about to respond when he suddenly felt that there was something wrong with this sentence.
Just as he became alert, Su Hengshan in front of him trembled all over, his pupils turned pale, his body slowly fell to the ground, and a stream of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
"Master Su!!"
Yun Che was horrified and quickly reached out to support Su Hengshan, only to find that the vitality in his body was rapidly dissipating like running water.
This is... severing one's own heart meridian!
Yun Che understood instantly that Su Hengshan wanted him to save Su Ling'er immediately without distraction, because he was afraid that if he stayed alive, he would become a burden to him and delay the time for him to save Su Ling'er.
In addition, he let those Tai Su disciples go, feeling sorry for his dead fellow disciples, and he also believed that the consequences of Tai Su sect today were all his responsibility...
Therefore, after entrusting Su Ling'er's safety to Yun Che, he chose to sever his heart meridian and die.
"Master Su...Master Su!!"
Yun Che yelled repeatedly, but Su Hengshan had no reaction. This reminded Yun Che of the time when his grandfather Yun Canghai chose to sever his heart meridian in order to let him see the light of day again under the sword-controlling platform at Tianjian Villa...
Yun Canghai did it for him.
Su Hengshan did it for Su Ling'er.
He is indeed not a qualified sect leader, but he is definitely a great father.
He couldn't save his grandfather back then, so he could only kneel down and cry...
Now, faced with a similar situation, how could he let this happen again! !
Yun Che gritted his teeth and used all his strength to mobilize the Great Buddha Art. A golden Buddha tower instantly appeared above his head. He pressed one hand on Su Hengshan’s forehead and the other on his heart, injecting the pure energy of heaven and earth into his body with all his strength, locking his last breath of life tightly and trying to repair his broken lifeline bit by bit.
“Master Su… don’t die! Ling’er is still waiting for you! Don’t die!” Yun Che growled, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead.
In the previous life, Ling'er, who was obsessed with him, always had an unremovable melancholy in her eyes.
How could he let Ling'er, who was lost and found again like a dream, become the same as she was then!
Half a minute later, under the magical power of the God of Wilderness, Su Hengshan's life force stopped escaping and even began to slowly recover. Su Hengshan slightly opened his eyes, and his gray pupils gradually regained focus. His lips trembled and he uttered a hoarse voice: "Don't... care about me... Save Ling'er... Save Ling'er quickly..."
“I will definitely find Ling’er back!” Yun Che roared with a frown, “But you must not die! If you die, what will happen to Ling’er? Will you let her be left without a father or a mother, alone and helpless?!”
"I..." Su Hengshan's face was full of pain.
He was already a mortal being, and could not take care of Su Ling'er for her entire life... Yun Che knew this deeply, but Su Hengshan did not know. If Su Hengshan also died, then Su Ling'er would really be alone and helpless.
"Master Su, if you want to do this for Ling'er's own good, then live well! Do you think you are great by doing this? Bullshit! Do you want Ling'er to lose her father at such a young age and live in the painful shadow of her father's suicide? You are simply selfish! Stupid!"
"You don't want father and daughter to be reunited, but Ling'er wants to...she definitely wants to!!"
Yun Che's roar caused Su Hengshan's pupils to shrink and gradually become blurry. Then his eyes closed and he fell unconscious again.
However, Yun Che clearly felt that the will to die in him had completely disappeared, and was replaced by a strong desire to survive.
