At night, the Heavenly Policy Mansion was in complete silence. Due to the recent turmoil, the entire mansion was filled with a gloomy atmosphere. Many of the mansion's disciples didn't seem to harbor any hope for the future.
Under the cover of the night, a figure quietly entered the Heavenly Policy Mansion. No one discovered the existence of this figure.
It was apparent that something big was going to happen in the Heavenly Policy Mansion tonight. At the same time, Dan Qingyang and the Talisman Gate's Patriarch were in the Sword Sect. It was already late at night, but they weren't resting or cultivating. Instead, they were sitting on the stone benches in the courtyard.
"Li Chun, that kid. Sigh. What a pity …" Dan Qingyang let out a sigh as though he felt sorry for Li Chun.
Recently, Li Chun had been cursing and speaking ill of the Sword Sect and Xiao Chen. Dan Qingyang and the Talisman Gate's Patriarch were naturally aware of these matters.
With their experience, perhaps they had already guessed what Li Chun's outcome would be. It was imaginable that Li Chun wouldn't have a good ending after cursing the Sword Sect and Xiao Chen so brazenly.
Upon hearing Dan Qingyang's words, the Talisman Gate's Patriarch didn't respond. But judging from his expression, it was apparent that he had the same thoughts as Dan Qingyang.
It was especially so now when Xuanyuan Ling was handling all the matters in the Sword Sect. Xiao Chen basically wouldn't interfere, so Li Chun definitely didn't stand a chance.
Compared to Xiao Chen, Xuanyuan Ling was obviously more ruthless. If it were Xiao Chen, perhaps Li Chun would still have a chance to keep his life out of consideration for their past relationship. But if it were Xuanyuan Ling, this chance was obviously nonexistent.
Xuanyuan Ling wasn't as sentimental as Xiao Chen. In everyone's eyes, Xuanyuan Ling was like an executioner.
He wasn't even willing to let go of the Dan Valley and the Talisman Gate, not to mention Li Chun. Li Chun had been completely blinded by anger and actually did such a suicidal thing.
He did not doubt that Xuanyuan Ling would kill Li Chun. Perhaps Xuanyuan Ling had already made his move.
Dan Qing Yang and Li Chun had foreseen Li Chun's outcome. On the other side, in Li Chun's residence in the Heavenly Policy Mansion, Li Chun was drinking alone in the courtyard. His back view looked a little bleak. At this moment, Long Qing's figure suddenly appeared behind him.
Since they were already here, Long Qing no longer hid her thoughts. Li Chun also noticed Long Qing's aura immediately. He poured himself a glass of wine and said without turning his head.
"Back then, Master was killed like this. What? Is Xiao Chen going to use the same trick again? And this time, he actually took action personally. "
With that, Li Chun finished the wine in his cup in a single gulp. Only then did he turn around unhurriedly. He looked at Long Qing with mockery and hatred in his eyes as he spoke indifferently.
Facing Long Qing's arrival, Li Chun did not seem to be surprised, nor did he have the slightest fear. It was as if he had already expected everything.
Looking at Li Chun, who was much more haggard than before, Long Qing said expressionlessly, "The Sword Sect can't be blamed for Li Xiao's matter. You should know this clearly."
"Ah, it seems that I still underestimated the shamelessness of the Sword Sect. In order to control the Great Thousand World, you really can do anything. What? You dare to do it, but you don't dare to admit it?" Li Chun replied.
Li Chun had long blamed everything on the Sword Sect. He was certain that the Sword Sect was behind Li Xiao's death. Even when facing Long Qing, he did not have the slightest bit of regret.
Hearing Li Chun's words, Long Qing frowned slightly. A faint chill rose in her eyes.
Previously, she was still a little conflicted about killing Li Chun. But now, after seeing Li Chun for real, Long Qing knew that this person could not be allowed to live.
It was no wonder that Xuanyuan Ling decided to kill Li Chun. This person clearly regarded the Sword Sect as a life and death enemy, the kind that would not rest until one of them was dead.
Such a person could not be reformed. As long as he was not, he would always be at odds with the Sword Sect.
Although Li Chun had a good relationship with the Sword Sect in the past, and even had Long Qing quite a bit of contact, that was in the past. Now, Li Chun had become the Sword Sect's enemy.
Even if this enemy's threat to the Sword Sect could be said to be negligible, any danger must be nipped in the bud. This was what Xuanyuan Ling had always implemented.
Since he couldn't reform Li Chun and couldn't change Li Chun's hatred for the Sword Sect, he could only kill him. Once he was dead, everything would end.
Perhaps some people would say that the Sword Sect's approach was too cruel. No matter what, Li Chun had a good relationship with the Sword Sect. How could they kill him just like that?
However, most of the time, many things were out of one's control. If it was possible, Xuanyuan Ling wouldn't want to kill Li Chun. However, there was no other way now. Li Chun couldn't turn back. He couldn't let go of his prejudice and hatred for the Swords Gate.
If a sect wanted to develop, it was impossible for it to have a bright side. It had to have a dark side. As the saying goes, a general's success was built on thousands of bones. If a sect wanted to develop, it was also built on countless bones.
Some people you didn't want to kill, some people you were willing to kill, but you had to kill them. This kind of situation was not uncommon in any sect.
Taking a deep breath, Long Qing said indifferently, "No one expected things to develop like this. Li Chun, you chose your own path. Since this is the case, you have to bear all the consequences."
"I know. No need to talk nonsense. If you want to kill me, just do it," Li Chun replied coldly.
Seeing this, Long Qing no longer spoke nonsense. Taking a step forward, his figure instantly disappeared and reappeared in front of Li Chun, throwing out a fierce punch.
Now, Long Qing's cultivation had reached the Emperor Realm Grand Perfection, much stronger than Li Chun. Facing Long Qing's punch, Li Chun did not choose to surrender. Although he knew that he was not Long Qing's opponent, Li Chun still chose to attack.
Perhaps Li Chun knew the result from the beginning, but he still chose to do so. This was his stubborn side. He knew that it was a dead end, but so what? He still walked on this path without hesitation.
The two's fists collided. Li Chun was directly sent flying without any resistance. Long Qing did not give Li Chun any chance to breathe. In response, Li Chun forcibly stabilized his body and immediately fought with Long Qing.
The two fought fiercely, using killing moves. However, although Long Qing's attacks were ruthless, there was not much killing intent. This also showed that Long Qing did not have much killing intent towards Li Chun. But there was no other way. Li Chun was courting death. For the sake of the Sword Sect and Xiao Chen, Long Qing could only kill.
