Chapter 83: Reunion and Reunion. Have you ever tasted other good things from the star, such as...
"What……?!"
Sima Huai suddenly coughed up blood and widened his eyes in disbelief.
The Great Elder had a long white beard, and at this moment he was filled with anger, appearing even more imposing.
"Damn you, Hua Huai! I've suspected you had ulterior motives since you acknowledged the former Sect Leader as your adoptive father and changed your surname to his! As expected, as expected... You, a brat, actually dared to collude with evil cultivators and cause Lan Yan's tragic death!"
In the eyes of the older generation of Tianlin Sect elders, Lan Yan is the apple of their eye whom they have watched grow up!
I was actually harmed so miserably by this heartless person!
"Nonsense! How dare you believe these rumors..."
Sima Huai was stabbed, but he remained calm and spoke with conviction.
But at this moment, another calm voice came piercingly.
"Master Sima, why don't you take a look at what this is?"
Qiao Anan, riding on a fire unicorn, stepped forward and raised the round spiritual weapon in his hand.
"Photo Stone?!"
Above the shadow stone, light and shadow gradually condensed in the air, and it was the infamous blood butterfly!
Sima Huai's eyes were bloodshot, but he could not stop the blood butterfly from speaking angry words.
"...The one who killed her was none other than your good brother!"
"It's all because I want that woman to lose her innocence, so that she feels guilty and grateful towards him! This is how he gets what he wants..."
…
Sima Huai's face twitched as he uttered a series of words. He turned his head stiffly and looked around, but found that the people around him did not look surprised, but rather coldly disgusted.
"Master!" Xie Duyin arrived with a group of disciples not far away. The cultivator who had always been unrestrained now had a solemn expression.
He bowed to Qiao Anan and said, "I have sent this video to Qianyan Hall."
Sima Huai's eyes turned red when he heard this.
"Old thief Sima, we long suspected that you would use your position as the Sect Leader to command the monks within the sect. Therefore, we have played this video several times within the Tianlin Sect since we entered the tower."
Gu Congxing held the Whale-Slaying Sword in his hand, with a sarcastic sneer on his face.
"What other tricks can you come up with this time?"
“Damn it, damn it!!”
Sima Huai struggled to rush forward, but a long bloody vine pierced his legs directly, causing him to scream and kneel on the ground!
Gu Congxing raised his eyebrows and looked over, it was indeed Zhong Ming.
Behind him, Lan Jue also came quickly.
"Junior brother, senior brother!"
The two men came around him, and although they had some scratches on their bodies, they were not seriously injured.
"Sima Huai, the left elder and the right elder are both dead. Don't you still refuse to plead guilty?" Lan Jue declared in a cold voice.
Sima Huai raised his head suddenly when he heard this, veins popped on his forehead, he gritted his teeth and remained silent for a moment, then burst into laughter again!
“Hahahahahaha!”
"To think that my fame was ruined by a few brats like you, hahahaha..."
Zhang Lao's eyes widened in anger. "You really refuse to repent! I will send this bastard to hell!"
He suddenly drew out his long sword, and this time, stabbed it directly at Sima Huai's heart meridian.
“Wait a minute!!”
A cry suddenly rang out, and a long white silk swept over from the horizon, actually blocking the fatal blow!
The long silk was like a living thing. It fell around Sima Huai and wrapped him tightly like a cocoon.
A female cultivator in flowing white clothes landed gracefully, causing exclamations of surprise.
"Fairy Yunlian?!"
"Xie Qingnian?!"
Xie Qingnian raised his arms and clasped his fists in greeting, then said to everyone:
"Everyone, Sima Huai's behavior was unusual during the meeting of the sect leaders and elders, which aroused suspicion. Now, his collusion with evil cultivators to murder his wife has caused an uproar in the cultivation world. I hope you will allow me to bring him to the Tianqi Sect, and let the 'Nine Commandments' make a strict and impartial judgment--"
"Humph! We, the Tianlin Sect, are dealing with the traitors. What does it have to do with your Tianqi Sect?"
The Great Elder interrupted Xie Qingnian and said in a deep voice, "Get out of here! I will tear this beast into pieces for Lan Yan!"
Xie Qingnian looked at the dignified old man with his hair standing on end in anger. Even after being scolded, she only frowned slightly and did not move away.
"Great Elder, why are you taking your anger out on this little disciple?"
Another voice suddenly sounded, and everyone looked in the direction of the voice, only to see an elder of the Apocalypse Sect dressed in white.
His voice was neither hurried nor slow, yet he was intimidating without being angry, and his cultivation was close to the out-of-body stage.
The elder of the Apocalypse Sect stood in front of Xie Qingnian and said, "The Apocalypse Sect originally did not want to interfere in external disputes, but now the leaders and elders of various factions are still in the Apocalypse Sect..."
He took a step forward and looked around with an earnest expression.
"Many Immortal Lords suspect Sima Huai is involved in the recent demonic rebellions, and is even more closely linked to the disappearance of his disciples! If he were to die here, I'm afraid the Tianlin Sect would have a hard time explaining this to the outside world!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the cultivators of Tianlin Sect suddenly changed.
The Great Elder's face turned pale with rage, and he was about to open his mouth to refute, but he was stopped by the Second Elder next to him.
Hua Yi and Qiao Anan looked at each other, both with gloomy eyes.
Gu Congxing's eyes were moving, and his thoughts were surging.
What the elder of Tianqi Sect said makes sense. Now that the immortal sect is in turmoil, everyone has long suspected that there are people in the cultivation world who are secretly communicating with demons.
Sima Huai holds the high position of the leader of the Tianlin Sect. Now that his hypocritical mask has been stripped off, he has naturally become the biggest target.
According to the clues he had traced, they all pointed to Sima Huai.
It seems that the people from the Immortal Sect have decided to interrogate Sima Huai thoroughly.
Gu Congxing thought about it, turned his head and saw Lan Jue with a thoughtful look on his face, then sent him a message.
"Big Brother, what do you think?"
Lan Jue raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, and also whispered into his ears:
"What he said makes sense. Moreover, Sima Huai is the head of the Tianlin Sect. If the Tianlin Sect refuses to hand him over and insists on killing him here, it may be seen as an attempt to silence him. By then, I am afraid that the Tianlin Sect will become the public enemy of the immortal sect."
Gu Congxing nodded slightly.
"Heh." Hua Yi held the whisk in her hand and snorted coldly without any concealment.
Although Qiao Anan was smiling, his eyes were gloomy. "If that's the case, just take him away... But the Apocalypse Sect won't let him escape, or let him off so easily, right?"
The Great Elder's eyes narrowed dangerously.
"I hope the elders can rest assured," said the Tianqi Sect monk, clasping his fists. "The 'Nine Commandments' have always been strict and fair in their punishments. Furthermore, Sima Huai's crimes cannot be tolerated; this is now a consensus among the immortal sect."
The Nine Precepts—a nine-member preceptorship composed of one member each from the top aristocratic families and two from the Tianqi Sect—have been used to judge disputes between sects in the cultivation world for centuries.
I heard that their torture methods are also very harsh, and I think Sima Huai will be able to suffer a lot.
For a hypocritical person like him, now he is disgraced and condemned by thousands of people, which is probably more painful than killing him directly.
Gu Congxing was thinking about it, and then he saw the man from the Apocalypse Gate speak again:
"Since everyone has no objections, I will take him away first. I apologize for any offense."
He flew away on his sword, taking the giant white "cocoon" with him.
Xie Qingnian followed her, but when she was about to leave, her eyes caught sight of Gu Congxing and his group.
She actually took a few steps forward and nodded slightly to Gu Congxing, Lan Jue and Zhong Ming, her expression still calm on her beautiful face covered with white gauze.
"Thank you, fellow Daoist." Gu Congxing responded.
"Is there anything else important?" Lan Jue asked.
Zhong Ming nodded slightly to her as a gesture, then turned his eyes to the side.
"From now on, Sima Huai will meet his end at Tianqi Gate. You can come and watch, or you can join the seniors of Qingxuan Sword Sect."
As she said this, she took out three talismans from her sleeve, on which were engraved the pattern of the Apocalypse Gate.
Gu Congxing was about to thank him when Zhong Ming suddenly asked, "Will the other young disciples from the immortal sects go?"
"I will come too."
Zhong Ming said "Oh" and then took it.
After Xie Qingnian sent the talisman, he floated away.
Gu Congxing put away the talisman: "Since General Sima Huai has been brought to Tianqi Gate, we should go back to Jiehuo Gate first." Si Junjian was still waiting.
"That's right." Lan Jue agreed.
The three of them said goodbye to Hua Yi and Qiao Anan, and left on their swords one after another.
The rest of the Tianlin Sect members also dispersed in groups of three or four. In the end, only Hua Yi and Qiao Anan were left standing there.
As the long night draws to a close, the eastern sky gradually brightens, reflecting the red glow.
Hua Yi remained motionless, as if trapped, and just stared at the pool of blood left by Sima Huai with a frown.
Qiao Anan stood silently, accompanying him.
After a long time, she raised the wine gourd and handed it to Hua Yi.
Hua Yi's eyes moved, she took it, tilted her head back and drank a few gulps, then wiped the corner of her mouth.
"Sima Huai is about to die. Hua Huai, brother..."
"Rest in peace."
The sake was spilled on the ground, splashing a little smoke and dust.
***
Two hours later, the fire gate was robbed.
As soon as Gu Congxing landed, he rushed towards Ke Feng. He broke the barrier he left before leaving and pushed open the door.
"Si Jun Sword!"
The young man lying quietly on the bed looked up when he heard the voice, his eyes lighting up.
"Gu Congxing..."
Around him, the silver wolf monster lying on the couch also immediately stood up, wagging its tail in the air.
Gu Congxing breathed a sigh of relief and walked forward quickly.
He leaned over and touched the wound on his boss Jun Jian's forehead, his brows furrowed and his face showed worry.
"You're so badly injured... but have you taken the elixir I gave you?"
"Yeah. Don't worry, I feel much better now."
Si Junjian had retracted his beast ears and long tail at this moment, but his face was still pale.
He raised his arm and touched Gu Congxing's wrist, and his sleeve slipped down, revealing the purple scar on his wrist.
"!" Si Junjian looked annoyed and was about to put his wrist down, but was caught by Gu Congxing again.
"Why are you hiding? Do you think I dislike you?"
Although he spoke in such a harsh voice, he had already taken out the ointment and applied it to Si Junjian, and his white fingers gently stroked his wrist.
Si Junjian clenched his other hand silently.
"Speaking of which, the formation Sima Huai set up back then seemed to require your blood to activate? What kind of evil formation was that?"
"I don't know, but I can feel that the formation is trying to expel all my rationality and awaken all my demonic nature..."
Gu Congxing in front of him lowered his eyes and applied medicine to him attentively. Si Junjian stared at him without blinking, and his body couldn't help but move closer.
"I think that guy wants me to never be able to regain my human form, and turn me into a bloodthirsty and murderous demon, a killing machine that helps the tyrants commit atrocities."
Gu Congxing's expression darkened upon hearing this: "He is indeed a damned bastard! He is now seriously injured and his reputation has been ruined. He will be taken to Tianqi Sect to be interrogated by the venerables of the immortal sects. You... Si Junjian?!"
"Yeah. I'm listening."
Although he said this, that beautiful pale face had already come closer to him.
Gu Congxing looked into the pair of red phoenix eyes that were so close to him, and lowered his eyelids slightly——
"boom!!!"
A loud bang suddenly sounded, Gu Congxing was suddenly startled, and Si Junjian's eyes turned slightly.
Beside the broken door, Zhong Ming and Lan Jue stood silently, their spiritual energy surging violently.
"...Big Brother? Junior Brother?"
When they heard Gu Congxing's voice, their faces, which were so gloomy that water could drip out of them, suddenly changed.
Lan Jue regained his usual gentle smile and said in a gentle voice, "We have already discussed with Kong Zhuo the matter of rescuing Si...Fellow Daoist. We can set off for Tianqi Gate tomorrow."
Gu Congxing frowned upon hearing this and said, "But Si Junjian's injuries are extremely serious and he hasn't fully recovered yet..."
Zhong Ming took a step forward, still with an obedient smile on his face.
"Brother, why don't you let me take care of it? I've learned a lot of medical skills while traveling abroad, and now I'm as good as a medical practitioner!"
Zhong Ming originally had a single spiritual root of the wood element, and he was extremely talented and made rapid progress.
Gu Congxing didn't doubt him and stood up and rubbed his head.
"You have learned quite a few skills."
Zhong Ming touched his wrist, and his smile widened when he touched the same ring.
"Of course. For my brother, I can learn anything and do anything."
He held Gu Congxing's hand and rubbed it with his cheek.
Si Junjian behind him narrowed his eyes, but his eyes were sharp on his pale face.
Gu Congxing chuckled a few times and instructed Zhong Ming: "Then, I'll leave him to you."
"Yes! I'm used to being alone when I'm practicing my medical skills. Brothers, just wait for me outside."
After receiving this response, Gu Congxing and Lan Jue walked out of the house together.
Lan Jue even cast another spell, and the broken door was restored with the ripples of water light.
“Click.”
The door closed, leaving only Si Junjian and Zhong Ming inside.
Si Junjian sat on the couch. Although his face was still pale, his sickly look suddenly disappeared.
The smile on Zhong Ming's face disappeared in an instant, and a cold light flashed in his golden eyes.
The two looked at each other for a moment, both frowning.
"...I heard that you also took part in this operation. Thank you very much." Si Junjian spoke first, his tone was as arrogant and indifferent as usual. "But my injuries are gradually getting better, so you don't need to worry about me."
"snort."
Zhong Ming stood there, folding his arms as he looked at him, a mocking smile on his lips: "I had heard that you, Zeng Tianlin's first disciple, were a pure and honest person. It turns out that you are not only a half-demon, but also a pretentious person."
Si Junjian's eyes darkened, and after a moment of silence, he retorted.
"As for appearances, how can I compare with you?"
He sneered, "Blood Vine Zhong Ming, you're a notorious villain out there. Your ways don't seem to be orthodox immortals... You're only pretending to be decent in front of Cong Xing. Are you afraid he'll see through you and abandon you?"
Zhong Ming's face was covered with frost, and the spiritual energy around his body suddenly surged!
"boom--"
Gu Congxing heard a loud noise not far behind him and immediately turned around to look.
"Why is there so much noise during their treatment?"
He was about to turn back when someone grabbed his wrist.
"Cong Xing, Junior Brother's treatment always takes quite a bit of effort. Not only is it noisy, but it also takes quite a while." Lan Jue said softly, "Let's not disturb them anymore."
Let them both fight it out.
Gu Congxing looked at Lan Jue's smile. Although he always felt that something was wrong, he still sat down facing him.
Lan Jue raised his brows and summoned the spiritual wine and fruit brew from the spiritual ring and handed it to Gu Congxing.
The amber-colored wine reflects the sunlight, making it very appetizing.
Gu Congxing took it and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since I tasted it. I missed it so much."
He tilted his head back and took a big gulp of the spirit brew, his Adam's apple rolling.
Lan Jue squinted his eyes and looked at him, his tone still gentle: "Really? Then has Cong Xing tried any other good things outside, such as... the taste of Si Junjian?"
"puff--!!"
