However, just as Su Yu was about to make his move …
Suddenly, five muffled sounds could be heard. Five bloody heads were thrown into the sky, flying over Su Yu and the others' heads.
The five faces were filled with confusion, shock, and surprise. Then, as their eyes dimmed, they all died. Thump!
Thump! Thump!
The five heads rolled on the ground, finally landing on the ground.
Then, five headless corpses were thrown out of the arena. Their bodies were covered with different wounds.
"This …" Gang Dalei, who was filled with anger, was stunned. Those five heads belonged to the five executioners who had been about to chop off their heads!
How could they be the ones who were beheaded?
"Alright, you can all rise." Long Juexin's gentle voice came from behind them. He slowly turned around with an apologetic look on his face. "I'm sorry, I have caused you to suffer."
As he spoke, he bowed to the five of them.
The unexpected turn of events stunned them.
"Alliance Master, what happened to them?" Lin Yunhe looked at the five beheaded guards in surprise. The ones who had attacked them were the other five guards.
They were all Long Juexin's trusted guards, so why did they kill themselves?
"Master Lin, please forgive us for offending you previously! The five of them had already been bribed by Fu Cangshan, and they had been monitoring my injuries day and night. I had no choice but to kill them as well. " Long Juexin sighed. "It was my incompetence that allowed Fu Cangshan to secretly gather the Heavenly Law Alliance's powers while I was heavily injured. Even half of my trusted guards were bribed."
Hearing this, Su Yu and the others suddenly understood.
"Fu Cangshan is currently working with some elders to attack Housemaster Zi and Master Lin. If he succeeds, you will all die! Hence, I took advantage of the situation and used Su Yu's matter to capture all of you first in order to preserve your lives. "
As he spoke, Long Juexin took out a red crystal. It was the Heavenly Law Core!
After instilling a strand of spiritual energy into it, an extremely secretive formation suddenly appeared on the arena beneath their feet. It was a spatial teleportation formation.
"Back then, the gap in this place wasn't completely repaired. The First World Senior left a formation here. Only the successive Alliance Masters knew about it. Fu Cangshan definitely didn't know about this."
"All of you, go up. The teleportation spell can teleport you a hundred miles away. As long as you hide your aura, no one will be able to detect you." Long Juexin walked over and took out a key. He then unlocked their shackles one by one.
It was only when he untied Su Yu that he realized that the shackles on Su Yu's hands had been undone!
Moreover, the sturdy shackles were twisted like cotton!
This scene caused Long Juexin to be startled. He raised his head and looked at Su Yu's eyes. "You! Can you break the shackles yourself? "
As Long Juexin looked at the twisted chain, he sucked in a breath of cold air. What kind of strange power was it that it could directly break the Celestial Binding Chains? Even if it was a high-grade divine rank, it couldn't be broken by brute force!
"So, you were actually pretending to be captured?" Long Juexin came back to his senses and quickly realized that the so-called shackles and cage couldn't trap Su Yu. If he wanted to leave, no one could stop him.
Su Yu casually threw away the shackles in his hands and wore a faint smile. "You should be thinking that it was fortunate that you had good intentions. Otherwise, the one who died just now would have been you."
When Su Yu's killing intent appeared, Long Juexin revealed the truth in time.
If Su Yu had been any slower, Su Yu would have mistakenly killed Long Juexin.
Although Su Yu was just a Two Crystals Half Fairy, Long Juexin could hear the absolute confidence in his words. He couldn't help but sigh. "I didn't expect that the youngster from back then would have already grown to such an extent."
His words were filled with melancholy.
"I'm really curious. Don't you hate me?" At first, Su Yu really thought that Long Juexin was still brooding over Long Aojue's disappearance.
Long Juexin's pale face revealed a mournful smile. "I lost my son and daughter, so I have nothing else to ask for in this life. I only hope that the Heavenly Law Alliance can continue to exist. I also hope that you humans can avoid the continent's calamity in the future. Let's just let bygones be bygones … "
Long Juexin, who was all alone, had suffered heavy injuries, lost his children, and lost the Heavenly Law Alliance. He had fallen into the lowest point of his life, and it was also because of this that he seemed to have seen through life.
He could even let bygones be bygones.
Su Yu's heart trembled slightly. Was this still the powerful and arrogant Heavenly Law Alliance Master?
He had changed greatly, as if he had been reborn.
"Alright, all of you can leave now. I will announce to the public that the five of you killed five guards and took the opportunity to escape. However, I have already successfully killed all of you! These five corpses are your corpses! "Long Juexin waved his sleeves, and a flame shot out, burning the five corpses to ashes.
It was impossible to tell if the corpses were men or women, let alone their faces.
"This method can be used for a while, but it can't be used forever. The five spies died at the same time, yet their corpses are nowhere to be found. Fu Cangshan will surely become suspicious!" Lin Yunhe analyzed the situation. "Alliance Master, why don't you leave with us?"
There was no place for Zi Donglai and Fu Cangshan in the Heavenly Law Alliance. Since they couldn't stay, Long Juexin probably wouldn't be able to either.
Even his trusted guards had been bribed. It was clear that the situation had reached a critical juncture.
"There is no need for that. I am a member of the Dragon Clan. I am a descendant of the Heavenly Law Alliance, the Alliance Master of the Heavenly Law Alliance. You can run, but I can only fight to the last moment! You can go ahead. You don't have to worry about me. "Long Juexin waved his hand and turned around.
Once they left, Long Juexin would be the only one left to struggle bitterly.
"I hope that you can safely avoid the calamity in the outside world."
Long Juexin activated the array with a snap of his fingers.
Su Yu was moved, and he bowed to Long Juexin. "Senior Long, we will meet again."
Gang Dalei's expression was awkward. He bowed deeply as well. "Previously, I called you senile. Please forgive me!"
Zi Donglai and Lin Yunhe's faces were filled with sorrow. They bowed deeply to Long Juexin and said, "Alliance Master! Take care!! "
With a flash of light, the five of them were teleported away.
Following the dissipation of the formation, the arena was empty and there was no one around.
"Let's go …" Long Juexin sighed.
At this moment, the sound of something tearing through the air came from afar.
Long Juexin furrowed his brows. Did something happen?
Swish swish —
A dense crowd of people flew over from afar.
Among the crowd were many elders. It was unknown why they had gathered together and were rushing over.
"Alliance Master!" The leader of the group was Old Chen and a few other senior elders.
Swoosh —
When the group landed, they hurriedly looked at the arena. When they saw the five charred corpses, their expressions changed.
"Alliance Master, I heard that you secretly executed Housemaster Zi and Master Lin?" Old Chen asked anxiously.
Long Juexin squinted his eyes. He had just arrived, and the elders had already rushed over. It was too much of a coincidence.
His cold gaze swept over the crowd. Fu Cangshan was standing alone among the crowd!
He was the one behind all of this!
However, Long Juexin did not plan to hide what had happened. Since they were all here, he decided to cover it up according to his plan.
"It wasn't a secret execution, but rather, they had already confessed to colluding with the otherworldly world. To prevent any accidents from happening, they were executed immediately. I was just about to gather everyone to discuss this matter. Since you are already here, you can verify their corpses on the spot." Long Juexin's expression was calm, but he was secretly on guard. He hoped that no one would notice that he had lost five guards.
He just needed to temporarily hide it from Fu Cangshan and make him believe that Su Yu and the other four were already dead!
As he thought of this, Long Juexin glanced at Fu Cangshan, hatred flickering in his eyes.
If Fu Cangshan had not secretly pressured him, he would not have taken such a risky move and killed Su Yu and the other four!
A few elders went forward to examine the corpses, but only charred corpses were left. Their genders couldn't be determined, so how could they identify them?
They could only determine from the number of corpses that there were five of them.
"Where are their heads?" Fu Cangshan asked. The crowd in front of him parted to make a path for him.
Seeing that Fu Cangshan was suspicious, Long Juexin was prepared for this. "I chopped off their heads while they resisted. Then, they were burned into skeletons."
He pointed at the five charred skeletons below the arena. When the crowd looked over, their hearts sank.
They had actually been killed!
Old Chen was infuriated. "Alliance Master, how could you be so careless?"
Long Juexin had killed them without any witnesses!
"This is a decision I've made after careful consideration. Are you doubting me?" Long Juexin replied coldly. Deep down, he was filled with hatred. Fu Cangshan had forced him into such a state!
He would definitely take revenge in the future!
However, Long Juexin realized that Fu Cangshan's face had an enigmatic look on it, and he could vaguely tell that he was excited.
It was as if his plan had succeeded!
Long Juexin's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Fu Cangshan already knew that there was a transportation portal here? Could it be that he had already arranged an ambush a hundred miles away to secretly kill Su Yu and the others?
As he thought of this, Long Juexin suddenly felt uneasy.
"Elders, are you still willing to follow this Alliance Leader who has lost his mind?" Suddenly, Fu Cangshan spoke. He was actually targeting Fu Cangshan!
"Ever since he became seriously ill, he has been lacking in energy, and it has been difficult for him to maintain the Heavenly Law Alliance. Following the death of his daughter, his temperament has changed greatly! Housemaster Zi and Master Lin, during the battle at the Dragon Abyss of the Nine Underworlds, how many contributions did they make to the Heavenly Law Alliance? However, Alliance Master Long killed them just like that! He was careless and decisive, and he did not care about his own life. He acted arbitrarily and did not listen to the elders' opinions. Now, he even secretly executed them without distinguishing between right and wrong! "
"Elders, may I ask you if Long Juexin still has the right to be the Alliance Master?" Fu Cangshan raised his arm and shouted.
This unexpected scene made Long Juexin feel as if he was stepping on thin air.
It turned out that Fu Cangshan's real target was not Housemaster Zi and Lin Yunhe, but him!
They had purposely suppressed Zi Donglai and secretly revealed that they wanted to get rid of the two of them. This was done on purpose for Long Juexin to see.
If Long Juexin had ignored them, they would have successfully gotten rid of the two of them.
However, if Long Juexin had attacked them, he would have been pressured by Fu Cangshan, so he would have used a similar method to secretly release the two of them. However, this was exactly what they wanted. They would then blame Long Juexin and accuse him of acting arbitrarily, thus removing him from his position as the Alliance Master.
