Chapter 16 Chapter 16 Who do you choose to die?
The next moment, the door of the hall was knocked open and the hurried footsteps of Immortal Xiang Heng were heard. When he entered the hall, everyone could see clearly the person he was holding in his arms.
Xiang Heng, the Immortal Master who always appeared to be aloof and aloof, was now sweating profusely and had red eyes. Even his steps were unsteady. Behind him were Hua Ying and Ping Jia, but these two were not much better than him.
Xiang Heng Xian Zun shouted: "No medicine!"
There was a clear tremor in his voice.
Immortal Master Wu Yao panicked and rushed forward, only then could he see clearly the person that Immortal Master Xiang Heng was holding.
It’s Lian Wan.
In other words, it was Lian Wan who was covered in blood.
Wuyao Immortal Venerable exclaimed: "Why is Lian Wan injured like this?"
Immortal Master Xiang Heng was holding the man in his arms and couldn't even utter a polite word. His eyes were slightly dazed, as if he was in extreme panic.
Ping Jia's voice was shaking badly, but he was still able to speak, and said, "The secret realm is a conspiracy of the demon tribe. We were ambushed by them."
At this point, he couldn't say any more.
Hua Ying took a breath and spoke with difficulty: "The three of us were surrounded by the monsters. Even with our master's strength, we were unable to break through. It was Junior Sister who took advantage of the monsters' unpreparedness and risked her life to break through the formation..."
Wuyao Immortal Venerable shuddered: "Lian Wan is dead?"
Ping Jia clenched his fists tightly, his eyes reddened, "No, Master has protected Junior Sister's life for the time being."
Wuyao Immortal Venerable breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said, "Put her down quickly."
Immortal Master Xiang Heng immediately ordered someone to move a bed and carefully placed Lian Wan on it. Only when he relaxed a little did he notice the Grand Elder of Wanyao Sect.
The number one in medicine.
He hurried forward, the Immortal Venerable who always looked up to others now wanted to lower himself into the dust, and begged, "Daoyou, please save my disciple!"
The Grand Elder of Wanyao Sect patted him on the shoulder to comfort him. Both of his beloved disciples were in critical condition and were indeed worthy of sympathy.
He stepped forward and treated Lian Wan together with Wu Yao Xian Zun. After examining her for a while, Wu Yao Xian Zun's face was filled with surprise.
"Whatever method the Sect Master used to protect Lian Wan's life, he did a great job. As long as we continue to protect her life and treat her well, there will be no problem."
The Grand Elder of the Wanyao Sect was also surprised, "This method is indeed amazing."
Hua Ying and Ping Jia also relaxed at this moment. They did not know how Xiang Heng Xianzun protected Lian Wan's life, so they asked:
"Yes, that's the method Master used."
Immortal Master Xiang Heng hesitated and frowned before he was about to speak, when he heard Sang Ling, who was standing beside him, speak.
"Could it be the Taichu Life and Death Bracelet that is protecting Lian Wan's life?"
She spoke softly, seemingly without any emotion.
Wu Yao Xianzun frowned and only then noticed the extremely inconspicuous small wooden bracelet on Lian Wan's wrist.
Xiang Heng Xianzun's expression was a little stiff, "I know that the Taichu Life and Death Bracelet is the most precious treasure of the sect, but human life is at stake."
Wu Yao Xian Zun stood up in shock, extremely anxious, "It's not because of this, the reason for the blood talisman on Sang Ling's body has been found out!"
Ping Jia widened his eyes and asked anxiously, "What's the reason? Will it hurt Senior Sister?"
His concern at this moment was genuine, as if he was no different from his original junior brother.
The Grand Elder of the Wanyao Sect sighed, "It was the Demon Lord's Ten Directions Curse that injured him. Rumor has it that the injured person will not survive more than thirty days."
Immortal Xiang Heng's body was shaking, and a look of dejection appeared on the powerful immortal's face. Who could bear to hear two pieces of bad news in one day?
Fortunately, Hua Ying was able to remain calm and immediately asked, "Is there any solution?"
The Grand Elder of the Wanyao Sect looked at Immortal Master Xiang Heng with pity.
Xiang Heng Xianzun's heart skipped a beat and he spoke with difficulty, "Could it be? The Taichu Life and Death Bracelet..."
The only response he got was a sigh.
Among those present, only the leader of the Wenti Sect remained optimistic. He said in a carefree manner, "Why are you panicking, Immortal Venerable Xiangheng? Isn't it said that as long as you use the Taichu Life and Death Bracelet to protect your little disciple's life for the time being, you can give the Taichu Life and Death Bracelet to Fairy Sang Ling to prolong her life after the treatment is completed?"
Ping Jia wiped away her tears and said, "That makes sense. Can we follow this method?"
The answer he got was a sigh from the Grand Elder of the Wanyao Sect.
"In order to cure Immortal Master Xiang Heng's little disciple, the Taichu Life and Death Bracelet is needed to protect her cultivation for ten days. Fairy Sang Ling only has seven days left. She must be given the Taichu Life and Death Bracelet within seven days."
Immortal Master Xiang Heng could no longer stand. He leaned on the bed, gasping for breath, with a distorted expression that looked somewhat scary. The same choice was placed before him again.
Last time, he gave the Jiugong Rui to Lian Wan, what about this time?
Can anyone give him an answer?
He looked at Hua Ying almost for help.
Hua Ying stood there in a daze, turned away and trembled his lips, not daring to look again.
Immortal Xiang Heng looked at Ping Jia again.
Ping Jia looked grief-stricken, and just stared at Lian Wan in a daze.
No one can make a choice.
"To the eldest sister."
A very weak voice was heard. Sang Ling lowered her head and saw Lian Wan opened her eyes with a selfless look on her face.
"The Taichu Life and Death Bracelet should be given to the Senior Sister."
She had learned Sang Ling's tricks from last time tenfold.
When Xiang Heng Xian Zun and the other two saw Lian Wan wake up, they immediately stepped forward to show concern, "Are you feeling unwell? You are so reckless in saving people. This time, I will definitely hurt you to death."
"Lian Wan is willing to bear the pain as long as Master and the brothers are fine." Lian Wan lay there with a smile on her face.
"I heard everything. The Taichu Life and Death Bracelet should be given to the Senior Sister, so I vote for the Senior Sister."
Sang Ling remained silent.
Lian Wan continued, "Since the Nine Palace Core was given to me, then the Taichu Life and Death Bracelet should be given to Senior Sister."
Wuyao Immortal Venerable had never expected Lian Wan to be so reasonable, and immediately continued:
"Lian Wan is right."
Elder Shu Ming also breathed a sigh of relief, "Master, since Lian Wan herself has told Sang Ling, we should respect her opinion..."
Xiang Heng Xianzun raised his head with red eyes, "Shut up!"
Hua Yingpingjia's face was also full of anger.
Elder Shuming and Elder Wuyao's expressions changed as they realized something.
"Master..."
Sang Ling glanced at the expressions of the three of them and felt that it was as she expected.
She couldn't help laughing and looked at them coldly.
"In that case, let's vote and decide. The five of us will..."
Immortal Xiang Heng's eyes were filled with sorrow as he looked at his disciple who had only seven days to live.
Sang Ling continued, "Master, Senior Brother, and Junior Brother are all having a hard time deciding, so let's vote."
Hua Yingpingjia stared at her blankly.
Sang Ling did not even look at them, and said calmly: "Lian Wan voted for me, then Master, who will you vote for?"
Immortal Xiang Heng kept his lips tightly shut, unable to utter a single word.
Suddenly, Tan Yan, who had been silent, spoke with interest, "I heard that not long ago there was a dispute over the Nine Palace Cores in your sect, and Fairy Sang Ling sold herself to Mo Shengze to save her life. It turns out to be true now. Today is a repetition of the past. I am also curious, what will the Immortal Xiang Heng choose?"
The leader of the Wenti Sect also shouted in a rough voice: "Of course it should be given to Fairy Sang Ling. Regardless of her contribution to the fairy world or to your Cangwu Immortal Palace, she should be chosen."
Immortal Master Xiang Heng looked over immediately, his eyes were red as if they were almost dripping blood, and were full of violence.
Immortal Wuyao now had an ugly expression on his face, and spoke without any respect. He stepped forward and said, "The use of the sect's treasure should indeed be decided by the sect leader, but last time the sect leader gave the Jiugong Rui to Lian Wan, so this time the Taichu Life and Death Bracelet should be given to Sang Ling!"
Hua Ying finally spoke, but he questioned: "What about the little junior sister?"
Ping Jia was not so calm. He questioned Wu Yao Xian Zun: "Does Junior Sister deserve to die?"
The next second, Elder Shu Ming looked righteous and gave the most rational choice.
"Sang Ling is the candidate for the next generation leader. I implore the leader to hand over the Taichu Life and Death Bracelet to Sang Ling."
The other elders looked at each other, then knelt down together after a moment, "We kindly ask the headmaster to hand over the Taichu Life and Death Bracelet to Sang Ling."
The other immortal sects watched all this, and several sect leaders who were familiar with Cangwu Immortal Palace spoke up to persuade them: "Xiang Heng, we know you are upset, but Sangling Immortal Realm has made great contributions to the immortal world, and the Taichu Life and Death Bracelet should be given to her."
Xiang Heng Xianzun smiled coldly, "Are you trying to use righteousness to pressure me?"
He lowered his eyes to look at the weak Lian Wan lying there. His little disciple was now isolated and helpless, just like he was isolated and helpless today to fight against the demon clan and rescue them.
He almost didn't dare to look at Sang Ling, and then heard Sang Ling speak:
"Master won't give me the Nine Palaces Core, and naturally he won't give me the Primordial Life and Death Bracelet either."
Immortal Xiang Heng stood there in a daze, "Sang Ling..."
He was stunned, but couldn't utter a word in rebuttal.
In his silent choice, Wuyao Immortal Venerable covered his chest and trembled, and said in a stern voice: "In front of you, I strongly recommended you to be the headmaster, but now it seems that I was wrong. How can the headmaster let you be someone who does not distinguish between public and private affairs and is only partial to personal feelings!"
After such outrageous words were spoken, Immortal Xiang Heng did not refute at all. As an Immortal, how could he not know whether it was right or wrong?
Since Immortal Xiang Heng has made his decision, there is no need to argue further.
Sang Ling looked at Hua Ying and spoke again: "Big Brother, who do you choose?"
Hua Ying took a step back, looking calm, "Sang Ling, how do you want me to choose?"
He looked painful, not like the stern senior brother he usually was. Poor Sang Ling was a little surprised at this moment.
But she still said: "If Senior Brother doesn't choose, doesn't that mean the Taichu Life and Death Bracelet doesn't need to be given to one of them?"
Hua Ying's eyes were on his two junior sisters. They were both very important to him, so how could he tell their importance? He could only repeat:
"How do you want me to choose?"
Sang Ling glanced at his painful expression and forced reality in front of him, "Brother, if you give up and Ping Jia also gives up, then the Taichu Life and Death Bracelet will have to extend my life."
Hua Ying glanced at Ping Jia. Ping Jia was in a worse condition than him at the moment. Besides, Ping Jia had a close relationship with Sang Ling.
Hua Ying's expression tensed up, and then he realized that he had heard himself speak:
"I choose Lian Wan."
Ping Jia, who was standing by, widened his eyes in frustration and pulled Hua Ying over, "Brother!"
Hua Ying was no longer emotional. A strong sense of guilt had torn his mind away, and nothing seemed real to him.
Sang Ling lowered her eyes and tried her best to control her expression.
How can she be completely calm? This is her way of life.
Sang Ling looked up again and had regained her composure. She looked at Ping Jia.
"Pingjia, it's up to you to decide who dies."
Ping Jia's face was full of tears, "Senior Sister, I won't choose!"
Sang Ling sighed, "Pingjia, you always try to escape like this, but you can't escape death."
Ping Jia looked at Sang Ling's figure with tears in his eyes, and vaguely returned to the time when he first entered the Cangwu Immortal Palace. At that time, he was naughty and ran to the beast mountain at the back to play. The half-demon beasts loved to eat him the most. By the time he reacted, he had fallen into the encirclement of the beast tide.
He squatted down and hugged his head tightly, closing his eyes to try to escape from it all. When he opened his eyes again, the blood-soaked senior sister staggered to him, stretched out her hand to him, and said:
"Go home with Senior Sister."
Ping Jia extended his hand to Sang Ling, and when he opened his eyes again he was back to the decision-making scene, and he had no way to avoid it.
Wuyao Xianzun's urgent voice came: "Pingjia, hurry up and make your choice. Have you forgotten how your senior sister saved you all those years ago?"
Ping Jia wiped away her tears and called out lovingly, "Big Sister."
Then he apologized, "I am sorry for you."
He chose Lian Wan.
Sang Ling closed her eyes, and when she opened them, everyone in front of her had a look of horror on their faces.
Immortal Xiang Heng could hardly control himself, and said in a trembling voice: "Sang Ling, you shed tears of blood."
Sang Ling was panicked. He raised his hand to touch his eyes. It felt wet and slippery. He lowered his hand to look and saw blood on his fingertips.
What really shed were tears of blood.
Her hands suddenly began to tremble and she could not control herself.
Only now did she seem to understand why the memories of her original body remained in this body...
