Chapter 228: A Song of Sorrow



To be precise, it was not that Jiang Zhige did not give justice to Lingtian Sword Sect, but rather he came to Lingtian Sword Sect to seek justice.

Jiang Zhige snorted coldly and waved his hand to disperse the Lingtian Sword Sect's Tongtian Sword Formation.

Although they knew that the sword formation would not be of much use, at least they could still feel some consolation. Now that the sword formation was easily shattered by Jiang Zhige, everyone in Lingtian Sword Sect suddenly became as panicked as women who were forcibly stripped naked.

"Senior Jiang, Lingtian Sword Sect knows that it is guilty. Dong Shan is willing to bear the responsibility alone. Please let the many disciples in the sect go."

Dong Shan's voice trembled as he knelt down in the air and bowed to Jiang Zhige from a distance.

Jiang Zhige looked indifferent, closed his eyes and said nothing for a long time.

Below, nearly ten thousand disciples of Lingtian Sword Sect all knelt on the ground, fearing what kind of punishment Jiang Zhige would inflict on them.

After a long time, Jiang Zhige suddenly shot a beam of spiritual power towards the ground.

Bang! With a muffled sound, Lin Chengping, who was kneeling in the corner, turned into a pool of rotten meat on the spot.

After that, Jiang Zhige did not take any further action and turned around to leave.

Dong Shan was stunned at first, but then he realized that Jiang Zhige decided to kill only Lin Chengping and no longer pursue the responsibility of Lingtian Sword Sect.

Jiang Zhige came here this time with the intention of punishing Lingtian Sword Sect, but then he thought, Emperor Xuancang is dead, why should he uphold those ideas?

Since he doesn't want to have a clear conscience, there is no need for him to meddle in other people's affairs.

Killing Lin Chengping was a personal vendetta.

As for Lingtian Sword Sect, although they have improper practices, no matter whether they are good or bad, as long as they do not involve himself, they have nothing to do with Jiang Zhige.

"Wait a minute, senior!"

Seeing Jiang Zhige was about to leave, Dong Shan, who should have been relieved, suddenly spoke up to try to keep him.

"Lingtian Sword Sect knows that it is guilty and has no face to face Senior Jiang, but there are two things that Dong Shan must tell Senior Jiang!"

"What is it?"

Jiang Zhige turned his head and looked at him, his eyes revealing a hint of impatience.

Dong Shan suppressed his fear and forced a smile, saying, "Senior Jiang, please follow me into the palace to discuss in detail."

Jiang Zhige frowned, thought for a moment, and nodded to agree with Dong Shan.

He could see that Dong Shan did have something important to say.

A moment later, inside the Lingyi Hall.

Jiang Zhige sat at the chief seat, while the elders of Lingtian Sword Sect and Dong Shan sat on both sides.

"Someone, go and ask Miss Miaoyin to play music for Senior Jiang."

Dong Shan did not say anything at the first moment, but asked someone to invite a musician.

Noticing Jiang Zhige's displeasure, Dong Shan suddenly felt the pressure like a mountain, and explained awkwardly: "Senior Jiang, please calm down. This girl Miaoyin is really good at playing the zither, so we won't delay the conversation."

He was not in the mood to listen to music in a serious occasion, and he was forced to do this.

Seeing that Jiang Zhige was about to leave, Dong Shan hurriedly began to report important matters.

The first thing is the threat of the Canonized Divine Sect. They are disguised as a demon sect, but in fact they are an evil sect.

Using the gimmick that the unparalleled benevolent and righteous Emperor Xuan Cang was a demon cultivator, they deceived countless innocent mortals to death. The Lingtian Sword Sect, which was also in the Great Qi Kingdom, knew them quite well and had even been tortured by them, but they were unable to do anything about the Fengsheng Divine Sect for the time being.

Nowadays, as long as Jiang Zhige is willing to take action, it would be easy to destroy the Fengsheng Divine Sect.

After hearing Dong Shan's words, Jiang Zhige remained calm and stood up to leave.

Not to mention that he doesn't have the ambition to save the people now, even if he does, there is no need for him to get involved in muddy water.

Han Linglang has already become a disciple of the Shengsheng Divine Sect. With her talent, she may be able to destroy the Shengsheng Divine Sect with her own hands in three years.

"Wait a minute, senior, there is a second thing!"

Dong Shan looked anxious, and immediately began to explain the second thing.

In addition to the threat from the Fengsheng Divine Sect, a space crack that cannot be closed has recently appeared outside the Lingtian Sword Gate.

After Dong Shan's investigation, he found that although the space crack was not dangerous for the time being, it exuded a strange atmosphere of chaos and violence. Now the three Demon Emperors were eyeing the Heavenly Realm, and there was no guarantee that this space crack was not their work.

Jiang Zhige's cultivation level is difficult to estimate. Perhaps he has a way to close this space crack. If not, he can also repel the invading enemies.

After listening to this, Jiang Zhige fell into deep thought. With that formation in place, even if Gong Liang, Xi Wen and the other two used special means to invade the heaven, they would not have to waste their energy looking for a weak point in the formation and tear a crack.

Because it was just a crack, it was not enough for a Demon Emperor-level being to ignore the formation and descend to the heaven, and the formation only lasted a short hundred years. With their strategy, they would not do such a thankless task.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhige suddenly shook his head and was about to leave.

"What does it have to do with me?"

No matter what the truth behind it was, he was too lazy to care about it.

Besides, even if he wanted to take care of it, with his imperfect original strength, he didn't have the energy to do so.

"Senior?"

Dong Shan was stunned. He didn't expect that such an important matter concerning the survival of so many lives would only be answered with a sentence "What does it have to do with me?"

Just as Jiang Zhige was about to leave, a graceful figure holding a Yaoqin came towards him from outside the hall.

She didn't seem to notice the strange atmosphere and bowed politely to Jiang Zhige and the others.

Dong Shan inexplicably felt a hint of anticipation when he saw this, and said, "Senior, why don't you listen to the song before leaving?"

This beautiful girl's piano skills are amazing, maybe she can impress Jiang Zhige in another way.

Jiang Zhige didn't even blink, he just walked around Miaoyin and went out.

“The world has changed over time, and people can never be young again.”

Miss Miaoyin's sigh suddenly made Jiang Zhige stop in his tracks.

Jiang Zhige turned his head to look at Miaoyin, sizing her up and down carefully.

This woman had a pretty face, and was wearing a pink and green long skirt. She was holding a zither, and her posture was surprisingly similar to Ning Qiu Shui.

Unfortunately, although they are similar, there is a huge gap between them in temperament and charm.

Dong Shanxin was secretly delighted. This girl Miaoyin was truly extraordinary. She could make Jiang Zhige stay with just one sentence.

Miss Miaoyin said no more. She sat in the hall and played the piano with her bare hands.

The sound of the piano is faint and sad.

Everyone in the hall looked dazed, and couldn't help but think of the scene of a woman crying about her husband who died in the battlefield.

When the song was over, even Dong Shan, who had reached the Soul-Breaking Realm, was unable to recover for a long time.

"Does this song have a name?"

Jiang Zhige was not deeply immersed in it. Although the sound of the piano had some charm, it was still far inferior to Ning Qiu Shui's, and was even inferior to his piano skills.

Miaoyin wiped the tears from her eyes and murmured, "This song is about parting sorrow."

Jiang Zhige nodded, turned and left the hall.

In this world, everyone has a story. He would like to know three-quarters of it, but will not go into the details, otherwise he will become part of the story.

Dong Shan came to his senses after hearing the voice and his face turned gloomy.
