Immortal world, Five Elements Court's training ground, Thundercrash Mountain.
Twenty-four hours had passed since the Demon Lord's attack.
Twenty-four hours could not be considered a very long time, nor could it be considered a very short time. Someone had used twenty-four hours to grasp the Court Of Sword's most difficult technique, the Divine Waterfall Flow. At this moment, that person was climbing from Thundercrash Mountain to Five Elements Mountain.
There were not many people in this world that required four Divine Domain experts to blindly follow and firmly guard, and Su Xiaojian was one of them.
The four Divine Domain experts were the ones responsible for capturing Yan Li from Kunlun Garden and bringing him here. With Tang Xinrong at their head, the four lined up on the platform. With every step Su Xiaojian took, they followed. They were responsible for watching over Su Xiaojian's execution.
Tang Xinrong could hear that every step Su Xiaojian took was very heavy. She wondered if he was grieving over the fact that he was about to kill his own disciple, or that Cangjian Peak was about to lose a dazzling star. Perhaps it was both? He and the other three looked at each other. As if they had all sensed the same thoughts, they all smiled.
Who told Su Xiaojian to always shine when he shouldn't?
"At this point, arguing is useless."
"But …"
"No buts!"
Guan Shanhai's words before he left still echoed in Su Xiaojian's mind. After a day and a night at the base of Thundercrash Mountain, he finally understood that this matter had nothing to do with right or wrong. When all wills wanted a person dead, then right and wrong were nothing more than a child's scribbling on papyrus.
"Do it yourself. This is the most honorable thing I can do for him."
The disciples guarding the mountain absent-mindedly met Su Xiaojian's eyes. Their bodies suddenly straightened and they respectfully stepped aside.
"After you, after you."
Su Xiaojian stepped on it. The seal automatically parted, and when he walked in, it immediately closed again. Tang Xinrong and the other three stopped at the base of the steps and waved at the disciples guarding the mountain.
The disciples knew their own worth. Although they wanted to stay and watch the execution, they did not dare to disobey and could only descend the mountain. At the base of the mountain, they were surrounded and questioned by several hundred fellow disciples.
Yan Li seemed to sense something and managed to raise his eyelids.
"Yo." When Su Xiaojian entered the Five Element Grand Formation, he'd already swept away all the heaviness, and he was relaxed as if he'd walked into his own back garden. Moreover, he smiled as he raised his hand to greet Yan Li. "You look haggard."
It was still that familiar smell.
Yan Li seemed to have returned to the moment when he first entered the Cangjian Peak. Su Xiaojian was squatting on the guardrail at the head of the bridge and greeted him. The wind was warm that day.
The bamboo forest, which later became his bedroom, was seen from the bridgehead. He liked it very much.
"Yo," he replied in a hoarse, dry voice. "That's true."
Su Xiaojian didn't say a word until he was in front of Yan Li.
Peak Lord Yan Li sensed something.
"Senior brother told me to personally end you," Su Xiaojian said.
Yan Li shuddered.
Su Xiaojian continued, "I'll give you some dignity, and at the same time, you'll be spared the pain of having a double nine. You've seen the execution of the Obeisance Cult members with your own eyes, so you should know how difficult the process is. "
"Why?" Yan Li clenched his teeth. He was rarely wrong, but once he was wrong, he would be in an irreversible situation.
"There are some things in this world where the process and outcome are not important," Su Xiaojian said.
"Then what is important?" Yan Li asked.
"You're just blocking someone's path. The one in charge of the Dao Court must be the most dazzling one, or he'll be doubted," Su Xiaojian said.
"I comprehended it not long ago. That's not all, "Yan Li said.
Su Xiaojian smiled, "The Demon Monarch came yesterday."
"For what?" Yan Li asked.
Su Xiaojian said, "To announce to the Three Realms that you're his disciple."
Yan Li went from shock, to realization, to anger, and finally to calmness. He smiled self-deprecatingly, "Even someone of his status is unscrupulous. I've really lived a kind life."
"Don't say anymore. Let's eat and be on our way." Su Xiaojian swiftly took out a lunchbox, took out chicken, duck, fish, and meat, and placed them all on the ground. Wine was naturally a must. At the same time, he yelled outside, "Hey, you're eating your last meal? You can't have me feed you, right? Hurry up and untie him! "
"Hmph, Su Xiaojian, don't play any tricks. It won't do you any good! Untie him! "Tang Xinrong's voice came from the distance. The four of them did not stand at the entrance, as that would make them seem too important. They were all in the Divine Domain, so who wouldn't have some self-respect?
The five-colored chains of lightning retracted and the divine light of the seal visibly swelled. It seemed that it had been specially reinforced to prevent Su Xiaojian from playing any tricks.
"Let's eat," Su Xiaojian said to Yan Li, who had just woken up. He sat on the ground and started eating.
Yan Li rolled his eyes, thinking, I really don't know who's being punished. He had been hungry for so long, so he naturally wouldn't be reserved. He sat down and began to eat and drink. Once his stomach was full, his entire body felt warm and his strength rapidly recovered. Even though he had not carefully chewed and tasted the food, he still quickly realized that these ingredients were not ordinary.
