"You should thank Jun Mo."
Ye Su said this to Liu Bai for the first time in the dilapidated house. Then he said with emotion, "Even though I can no longer practice swordsmanship, I am satisfied to see your sword in the human world."
Liu Bai was standing by the window, looking at the lunch box on the windowsill. Hearing Ye Su's words, he turned to him and said with a smile, "I am satisfied too.
He was wearing a comfortable silk shirt, which was not embroidered with money on purpose. He was wearing a pair of comfortable cloth shoes, which did not make him look refined. He didn't carry a sword, nor did he emit any fierce sword intent. With his hands behind his back, he looked like an ordinary person in Linkang City, giving people a comfortable feeling from inside to outside.
Ye Su's Ocean of Qi and Mountain of Snow had been destroyed, but his eyes were still there. One look at Liu Bai and he knew that the most powerful man in the world had improved again. But he couldn't tell which level he had reached.
It was difficult for the highest peak in the world to grow even an inch higher. But Liu Bai did it. Ye Su knew that it must have something to do with the battle of Verdant Canyon. That was why he said that Liu Bai should thank Jun Mo.
The battle of Verdant Canyon was the peak of swordsmanship in the human world. Liu Bai, the Sage of Sword, Jun Mo of the Academy, and Ye Su of Haotian Taoism were the protagonists of this battle. They were the three most powerful swordsman in the human world. In this pinnacle battle, Ye Su had become a cripple, Jun Mo had lost his arm, and his cultivation path had been severed. Liu Bai had also suffered serious injuries, but he was indeed the strongest cultivator in the world. He was the first to recover his cultivation level, and he even had a breakthrough.
Liu Bai said, "Chao Xiaoshu went to the Sword Garret to see me. He never entered the Academy in his life. His Taoism fate was broken and he could only live in the wild. He was not on the right path and could never reach the peak of swordsmanship. He was not as good as you ten years ago. But he was free and easy. He was fearless in the face of death and had no regrets in the face of loss. He lived his life according to his heart. I learned something from his words and deeds, so I left the Sword Garret. "
Only then did Ye Su realize that there was another reason besides Jun Mo.
Liu Bai continued, "A few years ago, I left Chao Xiaoshu's sword in the Sword Garret. After that, the former Judge lent it to Yiqing. Yiqing was injured by Ning Que, so I lent the sword to Ye Hongyu and asked her to kill the Judge. That was the happiest time I've ever borrowed a sword. Last year, the Headmaster of the Academy borrowed my sword in the Wilderness to slay dragons and gods. That was the most glorious time for me to borrow a sword. This time, when the Academy asked Chao Xiaoshu to borrow a sword from me, I did not refuse because I like this person, and also because the Headmaster of the Academy once gave me glory. This is the most willing time for me to borrow a sword. "
Ye Su walked to the window and poured him a bowl of water.
"The first sword I borrowed killed the Judgement, the second sword cut the Heavens, and the third sword cut the Heavens. If I can kill with a borrowed sword, then who should I kill with my own sword? "
Liu Bai smiled and said, "If I can kill people with a borrowed sword, then who should I kill with my own sword? When I came out of seclusion and looked around, I did not see Ke Haoran or Lian Sheng. The Headmaster of the Academy has already ascended to Heaven, the Abbey Dean has become a useless person, and Jun Mo is not free yet. You are preaching in a shabby alley. Who else is worth killing? "
Ye Su guessed what he was going to say and said, "You will die."
Liu Bai said, "A sword is lonely and straight. It would rather be broken than rust in the grave."
Ye Su held the bowl of water and said after a moment of silence, "Why are you telling me this?"
Liu Bai said, "Chang 'an is too far away. Except for Jun Mo, I am only willing to tell you this."
Only Jun Mo and Ye Su were qualified to hear these words. That was why he came to Linkang after leaving the Sword Garret. Besides, there was another thing he wanted to tell them. "What you have done and what you have preached to the people will not be tolerated by Haotian or Taoism. Even the Abbey Dean will not tolerate you. I will probably never come back again. Without my protection, you will become a rotten corpse in the filthy streets. That is why I am here to persuade you to go to the Academy."
Ye Su said, "Someone once said the same thing."
Liu Bai said, "It seems that Ning Que has really left Chang 'an. I think the Peach Mountain will be very lively in a few days. How can I not go and have a look?"
Ye Su said after a moment of silence, "Maybe it will be really lively."
Liu Bai said, "Your Younger Brother is going to die."
Ye Su said, "If it is convenient, please deliver a letter for me."
Liu Bai said, "Yes."
Ye Su said, "I hope it will not affect your Taoism."
Liu Bai said, "It won't."
Ye Su handed over a piece of paper and said sincerely, "I wish you can see the Tao."
Liu Bai said, "I want to see the Tao, and the Tao must see me."
After saying this, he took the bowl of water from Ye Su. He did not drink it but poured it on the ground. Then he laughed and walked out of the iron house with his hands behind his back. No one knew where he was going.
Ye Su looked at the water stains on the ground and knew that this was an early mourning.
There was no one in the world who was worth killing for Liu Bai. So when he decided to do something, no one could change his mind. Ye Su did not spend too much energy on this matter. He just wanted Pipi to be alive. However, he could not do anything now except write a letter.
…
…
A letter was sent to the Divine Hall of Judgment through a secret channel. It was said to be a secret channel because even the people in the Divine Hall of Judgment did not know who this channel belonged to and where it led to. When the deacons in black of the Judicial Department reacted as quickly as possible and began to investigate the clues, three people died on the cliff plateau of the Divine Halls of West-Hill. No matter how horrible the punishment of the Judicial Department was, they could not make the dead talk.
There was a sword drawn on the cover of the letter, and it was written that the Great Divine Priest of Judgment would read it in person. The deacons of the Judicial Department had long been in awe of the woman on the Seat of Heavenly Black Jade. They did not dare to act on their own, nor did they dare to let other Divine Halls know. They quietly sent the letter to the Divine Hall.
Ye Hongyu looked at the cover of the letter and knew where it came from. Several years ago, a letter had been sent to her through this secret channel. However, at that time, she lived in a remote stone house on the cliff plateau and was in the most difficult period of her life. That letter was very important to her at that time.
She did not know why Liu Bai wrote to her at this time. When she opened the cover and saw the familiar but strange handwriting, her fingers could not help but stiffen.
After reading the letter, she was silent for a long time. In front of the Verdant Canyon, she had arranged more than ten deacons in black and several West-Hill Divine Guards to protect Ye Su. In less than a few months, these people died one after another. She was very clear that some people in Haotian Taoism wanted to kill Ye Su to gain some kind of spiritual recognition. What really worried her was that she did not know where Ye Su had gone and whether he was safe and sound.
It was not until she received this letter that she knew that her brother had been in Linkang City in the South Jin Kingdom. With the secret protection from the Sword Garret, he should be safe. She felt a little relieved. However, thinking of what her brother had written in the letter, she frowned again.
A faint Haotian's Divine Flame overflowed from her palm. The letter and the cover of the small sword were burned into ashes. She slowly let go of her hand and looked in the direction of the Divine Hall of Light.
Ye Hongyu could guess who the person in the Divine Hall of Light was and why he did not want to see her. She felt it was ridiculous and even a little contemptuous of that person.
This contempt and ridicule was only based on their relationship in the human world. After all, that person was a superior being. What could she do?
Years ago by the North Yan Lake, Ye Su was ordered by Haotian to stop her from killing Long Qing. From that moment on, she began to doubt Haotian and felt disappointed in her brother.
However, what happened by the Sishui River made all her doubts disappear.
Ye Su had reminded her in front of the Verdant Canyon. He had also doubted it, but then he suffered a painful failure. Maybe it was Haotian's punishment for him.
…
…
There was no moon tonight because of the thick clouds and fog.
Ning Que slowly climbed up the dark precipice at the back of the Peach Mountain. The heavily guarded West-Hill Divine Palace did not pay any attention to this precipice. Since ancient times, except for the Headmaster, no one could pass through the peach blossom in the valley, and no one could ignore the tactical array on the precipice.
He did not stop at the third cliff plateau, but continued to climb up the precipice. After a long time, he finally climbed to the highest cliff plateau on the top of the Peach Mountain.
The route he chose was the most remote part of the cliff plateau, right behind the Divine Hall of Judgment. He gently wiped off the rock debris on his hands on his legs and looked at the dark and solemn Divine Hall in front of him in silence.
There was no doubt that this was a gamble. In the original plan of the Academy, this was the last resort. They could only choose it when there was no other way. However, he had been silent for many days and still could not guarantee Chen Pipi's life. Therefore, he had to take the risk here.
The Divine Hall of Judgment was very quiet, especially on the side facing the precipice. There were no patrolling cavalrymen of the Divine Hall, not even black-robed deacons or red-robed priests.
The space inside the Divine Hall was extremely large, extremely magnificent, and extremely monotonous. The black floor reflected the light of the crystal lamp, but it did not feel warm at all, only cold and solemn.
This feeling was very in line with the word "judgment" and the temperament of the current master of the Divine Hall. But in Ning Que's eyes, the Divine Hall of Judgment was like a big tomb, and the black jade throne was like a coffin.
He looked at the beautiful woman sitting on the black jade throne with her eyes closed, supporting her chin, and said, "Help me."
The black jade throne was very large, like a sea of blood. She wore a blood-colored Divine Robe of Judgment and sat on the huge throne, like the thickest and coldest drop of blood in the sea of blood.
The black jade throne was very cold, like a blood crystal coffin. She closed her eyes and supported her chin with her eyelashes still, as if she was the princess sleeping in the blood crystal coffin and could hardly wake up.
She opened her eyes. The sea of blood began to undulate, and the blood coffin slowly opened. She did not look at Ning Que, but at the black floor in front of the throne. She said, "Is this the promise of life and death?"
