The body is dead, but Jiang Roushui's soul still exists.
Taking advantage of the moment when Jiang Deng seemed to have forgotten to kill his soul, Jiang Roushui's soul flew towards Su Heng like crazy, "Master, save me!"
Once a cultivator enters the realm of transformation, as long as his soul is not dead, he has the possibility of continuing to live.
Although Jiang Roushui's dead body is no longer useful, he can still possess another body, or switch to the ghost path... But if his soul is destroyed, he will really be gone!
Jiang Roushui used almost all her strength, trying her best to speed up and get to Su Heng.
However, just as he was about to reach Su Heng, the terrifying and haunting voice of Jiang Deng suddenly sounded behind him.
"Ten thousand evils devour!"
As Jiang Deng swung the heavy sword in his hand, countless black shadows broke away from the sword and rushed towards Jiang Roushui.
These black shadows were all old ghosts that Jiang Deng obtained from his fourth apprentice. Naturally, they were much faster than Jiang Roushui, the new ghost. They easily caught up with Jiang Roushui's soul.
The evil ghosts either grinned grimly or bared their fangs and claws as they surrounded Jiang Roushui's soul from all directions. Then they moved forward and began to devour Jiang Roushui's soul until it was completely consumed.
“Ah! No—!”
Jiang Roushui's unwilling screams echoed over the Taichu Sword Sect.
But there were too many evil spirits, and Jiang Roushui's soul was not enough for them to eat, so Jiang Roushui's scream only lasted for a moment, and then he was gone.
The hungry evil spirits had no choice but to return to the Chongguang Sword cursing.
"Ginger Lantern!"
Seeing his number one supporter being killed on the spot by Jiang Deng, Su Heng's face turned completely ugly.
"How dare you massacre the veteran leader of the Taichu Sword Sect in public?"
"Why shouldn't I?"
Jiang Deng patted the blade of the Chongguang Sword disapprovingly, as if to appease the hungry evil spirits inside. "You have called me a big villain. If I don't do something bad, wouldn't it be a shame to this name?"
"Besides, Jiang Roushui took advantage of my absence to collude with outsiders and plot against the sect. According to the sect's rules, his treasonous behavior should have been punished by death. Now that he died so easily, it was a relief for him."
Su Heng: “…You!”
Seeing that he couldn't win the argument with Jiang Deng, Su Heng decisively shifted his gaze to Xia Chenqing behind Jiang Deng and played the emotional card, "Chenqing, as my disciple, why don't you return to my side? If you continue to stay with Jiang Deng, do you want to betray your master and ancestors?"
Xia Chenqing seemed to have made up his mind long ago. He smiled slightly and said calmly, "Master, you are wrong. As the chief disciple of the Taichu Sword Sect, Chenqing naturally stands on the side of justice. It is indeed inappropriate for Master to take advantage of the Sect Master's absence and collude with traitors to seize the sect. Master, you should repent."
"...Good, very good! This Sect Master was truly blind. Why did I accept such useless disciples like you?"
Su Heng's chest heaved up and down with anger.
He never expected that in the end, not only did his second disciple Wen Yan ignore him, but now even his most trusted eldest disciple betrayed him and joined Jiang Deng's team.
"Master...don't feel bad for the eldest and second brothers anymore. They are the ones who don't appreciate your kindness. I will always stand by your side."
Just at this moment, a figure riding a sword came to Su Heng.
The man was wearing a gorgeous yellow robe and had reached the peak of the Jindan realm. He was Su Heng's third disciple, Feng Jiuyou.
Ever since Feng Qing became the emperor of Nirvana, his strength has grown by leaps and bounds, and he soon surpassed him.
In addition, with the rapid rise of Jiang Deng, Zhan Ji, Jiang Zhiling and others, they seemed to have taken control of most of the Taichu Sword Sect.
Feng Jiuyou didn't dare to show off anymore, for fear that Jiang Deng and others would find an excuse to expel him from the sect, so he kept a low profile in Taichu Sword Sect during that period of time.
But not long ago, Master Su Heng returned to Taichu Sword Sect and became the Sect Master of Taichu Sword Sect. Feng Jiuyou suddenly became proud again.
In particular, the second senior brother Wen Yan was put in solitary confinement by the angry master because he contradicted the master and pointed out that the master's behavior of occupying the sect while Jiang Deng was away was not worthy of being a righteous person.
At the moment, Senior Brother Xia Chenqing has declared a break with Master...
If you calculate it this way, he is the only disciple left by his master's side, and it is a good time for him to show his loyalty!
As long as he serves his master to his satisfaction, his master will definitely entrust him with important tasks. Then, won't the chief disciple of Taichu Sword Sect be his?
Feng Jiuyou had a very good plan in mind.
"Okay, very good, Jiuyou, your master was not wrong about you."
After hearing Feng Jiuyou's sincere words, the anger in Su Heng's chest dissipated a lot, and there was a little more comfort in his eyes when he looked at Feng Jiuyou.
Although he had always disliked Feng Jiuyou for being weaker than the other two disciples, and for his unstable character, he was not very optimistic about Feng Jiuyou among the three disciples.
Unexpectedly, he was wrong. The third disciple Feng Jiuyou was the one with a truly firm mind and was not tempted by Jiang Deng's sugar-coated bullets at all!
"Then Master, what should we do next?"
Although Feng Jiuyou was very happy that he was finally valued by Su Heng, he was still wary of Jiang Deng in his heart.
Although he looked down on Jiang Deng before, judging from the fact that Jiang Deng had just crushed Master Jiang Feng to death with his bare hands, Jiang Deng's current strength is no longer comparable.
With someone like him, I guess Jiang Deng isn't even capable of beating him with just one finger!
However, fortune and honor come at the cost of risk. Instead of going to Jiang Deng who ignored him, he might as well continue to cling to his master!
What's more, Master is a cultivator in the Return to Void Realm, so he may not be unable to defeat Jiang Deng in the Transformation of the Spirit Realm!
He believed that he would definitely be the one who had the last laugh...
Seeing the worry in Feng Jiuyou's eyes, Su Heng snorted and laughed, "It's just a Jiang Deng. I have a backup plan. Jiuyou, come closer."
"Yes, Master."
Feng Jiuyou immediately came forward. When he heard Su Heng talk about his plan, his eyes became brighter and brighter. "Master, don't worry. I will never let you down. I will definitely see to it!"
"Very good," Su Heng nodded and smiled, then stuffed something into Feng Jiuyou's hand, "Take it, and use it when the time is right."
"Yes, sir!"
…
Looking at the master and disciple who were talking happily above, especially the smug look on Feng Jiuyou's face, Feng Qing below felt very unhappy.
"At first, I spared his life because he and I were born of the same mother. If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have kept him alive, a scourge like him."
Feng Qing's face was extremely dark. She looked at Jiang Deng beside her and said sincerely, "Jiang Deng, I will take care of Feng Jiuyou later and will definitely not let him cause any trouble for you!"
