Chapter 569 Abandoning the Sect
Zhou Zhenyan stood up suddenly.
He couldn't believe it. "How is this possible? How could Qing Lan become a demon? And the Lord of the Demon Realm?"
Everyone knows that Wei Qinglan is an innate swordsman. He is the child who grew up under his care. His heart of Tao is clean and pure. Over the years, the sect master and they have been watching over him carefully, fearing that someone might destroy his heart of Tao. How could he become a demon?
He asked, "Is it because he subdued 100,000 evil ghosts from the netherworld that even though he was saved, he was corrupted by the evil ghosts and lost control, and became possessed by the devil?"
Shang Zhiyi reminded him, "He is the Demon Lord."
The Lord of the Demon Realm, this is no ordinary demon.
Zhou Zhenyan was speechless for a moment. Indeed, if it was the Demon Lord, it would not just be a matter of being possessed by a demon.
He couldn't believe it. "He is really the Demon Lord? How could he be the Demon Lord?"
Demon Lord, you were born in the abyss of the most evil in the world, but Wei Qinglan was born on the top of Kunlun Mountain.
Gu Chengzhou spoke up at this time: "When he subdued 100,000 Netherworld evil ghosts by the Netherworld River, he was filled with demonic energy. I saw that there was a demon soul growing on his innate sword heart. When he subdued 100,000 Netherworld evil ghosts, he tried his best to suppress the demon soul. Even if his soul was torn to pieces, he never relaxed for a moment."
He sighed, "He doesn't want to become a demon, but he was born with a demon soul. He is a demon, and the demon soul grows with him. If the demon soul dies, he will die. If the demon soul is reborn, he will be resurrected."
Zhou Zhenyan immediately looked at Gu Chengzhou, "Brother Gu, why didn't you tell me since you came back?"
Gu Chengzhou said confidently, "What did I say? At that time, that little girl Qingxu took him away. How could I know whether he was dead or alive? If he was dead, what's the point of me saying he was a demon? If he was alive, wouldn't you already know it? Even if you knew, what could you do?"
He didn't admit it. He kept it a secret out of selfishness. He didn't expect that Wei Qinglan would be saved by Jiang Lisheng so quickly and returned to the Demon Realm. How was he saved and how did he return to the Demon Realm? It was only a few days.
Zhou Zhenyan choked.
Gu Chengzhou said: "When I arrived at the Netherworld River, Qing Lan was subduing 100,000 Netherworld evil spirits. Master Uncle Qi was standing by and watching because he discovered that he was a demon."
He sneered, "A demon is trying to subdue evil spirits, fearing that the evil spirits will be released to harm the world, while the self-proclaimed righteous people are watching coldly. I wanted to step forward to help, but he stopped me. If Qingxu's little girl hadn't arrived, he would have been scared to death."
He asked Zhou Zhenyan, "If it were you, what would you do? Would you have done the same as Uncle Master Qi, standing by and watching? Not only did you not help, but you also stopped others from helping. If he hadn't returned to the Demon Realm so quickly, and the news that he was a demon was released, what would have happened even if he had a demon soul but was not a demon? Would he have been hunted down by the entire cultivation world? Since ancient times, people have been terrified of demons. At that time, no one would remember that he became a demon in order to subdue 100,000 evil ghosts from the underworld. They would only know that he was a demon and they should kill him as soon as possible."
Zhou Zhenyan fell silent.
Gu Chengzhou said: "Even if he becomes a demon, he is still better than Pei Tanyi. How many evil things has Pei Tanyi done behind the scenes over the years? He is extremely hypocritical. After the little girl Qingxu rescued Qinglan, Pei Tanyi chased to the Netherworld River and saw that both I and Master Uncle Qi were injured. He wanted to kill me when he saw that Master Uncle Qi was dying. Master Uncle Qi blew himself up to block him for me, buying me time to escape. Compared with demons, what are the people in the immortal sect like? One stands by and watches for the righteous way, claiming to be righteous, and the other is ambitious and selfish, eradicating and harming all those who stand in his way."
He sneered, "Pei Tanyi united the demon world and the ghost world. Although the Demon Realm stood aside and watched, at least he called back all the monsters. Even if this was his only conscience, it was still a conscience. And what about Pei Tanyi? A scum of the Immortal Sect."
Zhou Zhenyan admitted that what Gu Chengzhou said made sense, but that was just a matter of reason. What should he do now? He looked at Shang Zhiyi, "Junior Sister Shang, do you have any good ideas?"
Shang Zhiyi shook his head. "There is no good way. He said that the Demon Realm will not intervene, and will not allow the Demon Realm and Ghost Realm to intervene. Therefore, the most urgent thing is that our two sects can only unite."
She paused and said helplessly: "I don't know where Sect Master Qin is trapped, and there is still no news about Senior Brother Yu. My cultivation level cannot beat Pei Tanyi, and we don't have anyone who can compete with him."
Gu Chengzhou said: "That's right, especially since it has only been a few days and everyone's injuries have not healed yet."
One by one, they are now weak and sick. Kunlun originally had a great-grandmaster Uncle Qi, who could have defended Kunlun, but he kept fortune-telling and spying on the secrets of heaven, and his cultivation level dropped sharply. Later, he was seriously injured by the Nether River and had to self-destruct, bringing about his own death.
Zhou Zhenyan asked, "Where is nephew Jiang? Where is she now?"
Shang Zhiyi said: "He was taken to the Demon Realm."
Zhou Zhenyan asked: "Then she..."
"Now he is unconscious."
Zhou Zhenyan sighed deeply.
Gu Chengzhou asked Shang Zhiyi, "Is there any way to use magic to wake her up from a distance? The person who tied the bell must untie it. She hasn't become a demon, right? We can't just watch Kunlun Qingxu being destroyed?"
Shang Zhiyi shook his head, "I have no way. If Senior Brother Yu were here, he should be able to find a way."
Gu Chengzhou asked: "Is it still impossible to contact Senior Brother Yu?"
Shang Zhiyi shook his head, "No news."
Gu Chengzhou also sighed, and after a moment, he said to Zhou Zhenyan: "Let's set off, all of us, to seek refuge in Qingxu."
Zhou Zhenyan was shocked, "Senior Brother Gu, do you mean to give up Kunlun?"
"Now, what do we have left in Kunlun? Xuantian Realm is broken, Xuantian Tower collapsed, Sword Tomb is destroyed, wasn't the immortal power of the tomb absorbed by Qingxu? These important things are gone, only half of the medicinal field is left, which is more valuable, and the rest are not so valuable. Take away everything that can be taken away. You can't let Sister Shang abandon Qingxu and stay with us in Kunlun to guard the house? And then watch Qingxu's house being robbed? The most urgent task now is to protect all our Kunlun disciples. This Kunlun Mountain, even if it is razed to the ground? We can rebuild it later. The most important thing is to combine the strength of our two sects to fight against Taiyi."
"This..." Zhou Zhenyan looked at Shang Zhiyi, "Junior Sister Shang, look..."
Shang Zhiyi also thought this was a good idea. In her opinion, there really wasn't much left in Kunlun now. She nodded and said, "If you two brothers agree, I have no objection."
Zhou Zhenyan gritted his teeth and said, "Then let's go to Qingxu. I will inform all the disciples of the sect that Junior Sister Zuo Shang's Mountain and River Scroll will arrive in Qingxu in three days. Tell everyone to pack up as soon as possible and take everything they need."
Shang Zhiyi nodded and instructed, "Keep it a secret, and don't let the news leak out before we get to Qingxu."
Zhou Zhenyan nodded.
Yu Yunsu had not expected this to be the result after the discussion. He thought that he was worthy of being Senior Brother Gu. He had been outside for a long time and his horizons and mind had broadened. He even gave up the sect.
