"Senior Black Demon King, you don't belong here. Why make life difficult for us small fries? Why don't you kill me and let these children go?" Qing Yun smiled.
"You are an ant and so are they. There is no difference between you and me. It's a pity that you are at the end of your rope. Otherwise, I would be able to recover some strength by devouring you …" The Demon King looked regretful. He then waved his hand and the demons rushed towards Qing Yun and the rest.
But at this moment, a figure appeared in front of them. Hungry Demon and Lustful Demon, who were leading the group, suddenly stopped.
"Brother Zhou Yang, please step aside. We are just following orders," Mi Mo said with a smile.
"I am also a disciple of Tiangang Sword Sect."
With that, Zhou Yang took out his Spiritual Sword.
"Do you really want to die with me?" Black Cat turned to look at Zhou Yang.
"Black Cat, if I am not wrong, you are staying in Draconic Country because you have not recovered your strength. You have already devoured Ancient Sword Seven Stars. Tiangang Sword Sect is of no value to you …"
"But you are very valuable to me. After all, you saved me, didn't you?" Black Cat's tone was sarcastic.
With that said, everyone looked at Zhou Yang in shock.
"What do you want?" Zhou Yang asked.
Black Cat was silent for a while before saying, "Since you want to save them, I will give you a chance as long as you agree to one condition of mine."
"Alright, I agree."
Zhou Yang did not hesitate.
"Very straightforward. Fine, killing them is meaningless to me anyway." With that said, Black Cat looked at Black Demon King. Black Demon King immediately waved his hand and the demons instantly dispersed.
"I will come for you …"
Black Cat said as he walked. Soon, his figure disappeared into the void.
"Kid, the game has just begun. Don't be so weak next time." Black Demon King looked at Zhou Yang and then led the others away with a laugh. Only Qing Huo remained in place.
"Peak Leader Yan, I will leave the rest to you. Zhou Yang, follow me."
Qing Yun stood up and looked at Qing Huo. With the help of the old Peak Leader, he walked down Sky Sword Peak.
The four of them walked for almost two hours before they finally arrived at the Seven Stars Cave of the Sword Catacomb. No one said a word throughout the entire journey.
In the Seven Stars Cave, Qing Yun sat in the place where the Seven Stars Sword used to be. His old face no longer showed any expression, only his dim eyes still had a trace of reminiscence.
"Qingyun, stop pretending." Bluefire could no longer hold it in.
"We don't have much time left. If you have something to say, just say it. Zhou Yang is here. If you want, he can tell the world everything," Qing Yun said, looking at Qing Huo.
"Stop acting like that. I know you're fine. Don't act like you're about to die," Bluefire said angrily.
"Death is just a release for me. If you leave now, it will also be a release for you."
"Bullshit."
Bluefire roared. "Even if you're really going to die, I'll watch you die with my own eyes. Otherwise, I won't be able to resolve my hatred."
"Do you hate me for snatching the position of Sect Master that should have belonged to you?" Qing Yun asked.
"Haha …"
Bluefire suddenly laughed. He looked at Zhou Yang and said, "Zhou Yang, I remember telling you that there are many hypocrites in the Heavenly Dipper Sword Sect. He, Qing Yun, is the biggest one."
"Why?" Zhou Yang asked.
"Zhou Yang, last time in the Seven Stars Cave, I already said that if you want to see the Seven Stars Sword and master it, the only way is to kill people. The more people you kill, the more powerful the Seven Stars Sword will be."
"So what? You and I have both killed people." Zhou Yang shook his head. He did not kill many people, but it was only because he was young. If he was Qing Yun's age, he would probably be able to see the Seven Stars Sword.
"That's because you don't know how many people you need to kill to master the Seven Stars Sword."
Speaking of this, Bluefire glared at Qingyun and said, "Qingyun, are you still hiding it now? Why don't you tell me what happened a hundred years ago?"
After a long time, Qingyun sighed and looked at Zhou Yang. "Zhou Yang, do you still remember the Black Scale Cave?"
"Of course I remember …" Speaking of this, Zhou Yang was startled. He suddenly remembered that the Monster King had said that he saw Qingyun more than a hundred years ago. Could it be …
"You know my great-grandfather?"
Qingyun smiled and said, "Your great-grandfather is the eldest of us five brothers. I am the second eldest, and Tianfeng is the youngest. Back then, we were just as young and energetic as you. We were fearless, but it was also because of this that we made a big mistake."
Zhou Yang did not speak and quietly waited for Qingyun to continue.
"I think Tianfeng has already told you about the Black Scale Cave. Back then, us five brothers obtained great benefits from the Black Scale Cave and became the five strongest geniuses in the south. In the following ten years, relying on the resources of the Tiangang Sword Sect, my cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds …"
"Why don't you say that you made a deal with the Monster Race?" Qinghuo said in a low voice.
"We had no choice. If we didn't make a deal with that person, then not only would the five of us die, but the entire Jiangnan County would also be destroyed because of the Black Scale Cave." Qingyun sighed.
"Bullshit." Qinghuo's face was full of disdain.
"Qinghuo, this is the difference between the two of you. You work with a tiger for your own selfishness, while your brother works for the lives of more people." The Old Peak Master scolded.
"Martial Uncle, you are still siding with him even now. Fine, just consider it as me being selfish." Having said that, Qinghuo looked at Zhou Yang and said, "Zhou Yang, I have to thank you for releasing the Black Demon King and the others. It was also because of this that I was able to contact them. Of course, you also contributed to my escape from Starsoul Valley …"
"Do you think we don't know what you did in Starsoul Valley? We just turned a blind eye to it, but we never expected that you would secretly collude with the Black Demon King." The Old Peak Master scolded.
"If he can collude with me, why can't I? How many people did he kill for the position of Sect Master? Compared to him, I am simply a great philanthropist. Haha … "Qinghuo laughed.
"I did kill a lot of people."
Qingyun took a deep breath and his eyes were filled with regret. "A hundred years ago, the royal family was in the same situation as now. It was in the process of changing the throne. In order to help the Seventh Prince ascend the throne, I annihilated the Eastern, Western, and Northern Clans that opposed the Seventh Prince …"
Hearing that, Zhou Yang could not help but take a deep breath. The Seven Great Clans were all annihilated!
"Lies."
