Nangong Xue said, "Shiniang wasn't a martial artist. When she was under house arrest in the Cult Palace, she spent every day reading secret manuals. It wasn't just to pass the time, it was … it was to …" She bit her lip and took a deep breath. "According to what you said, Shiniang's personality was usually gentle and weak. She wouldn't take the initiative to fight with others. However, once someone really offended her and destroyed the thing she cared about most, she would fight back by hook or by crook. She went from being her closest friend to being her most terrifying enemy … After she was forced to leave by the former Hierarch of the Demonic Cult, she no longer had the thought of returning to your side and being together forever. Instead, she would rather perish together with her enemy … Didn't the former Hierarch wholeheartedly hope to conquer the world by force? Shiniang secretly studied the Cult's ancient books and records to thoroughly understand his martial arts. At the same time, she secretly thought of a way to deal with him. In the cave, she engraved all her painstaking efforts on the stone wall, hoping that the later generations would be able to learn the skills and destroy the Demonic Cult to avenge her deep hatred. Then she would be able to rest in peace in the underworld … Shiniang's plan could be said to be ingenious. Her plans were so far-reaching. "
Jiang Liechen sneered. "What a good Chu Anlin. She actually dared to scheme against the former Hierarch. Twenty years ago, she plotted against us, the later generations. Humph, humph. She wanted to borrow other people's hands to destroy our Cult. How could it be so easy? Didn't she still die in the barren mountain? If you hadn't accidentally discovered her, even her corpse would have rotted away. How could she dare to talk about such a shocking secret plan? "
Meng Anying said indifferently, "If Anlin wasn't so smart and alert, I'm afraid your former Hierarch wouldn't have fallen in love with her. With his temperament, even if he died under the sword of the woman he loved, he would be willing to do so. Anlin has always been extremely smart. It's not surprising that she could do such a thing! "
Li Yijie continued, "That's right, Shifu. The Heavens finally took pity on Shiniang and didn't let her painstaking efforts be buried in the yellow earth. I learned the mantra that she had engraved. Only then was I able to heal the internal injuries that had accumulated for many years and bury her … "
He thought about how he had used his newly learned kung fu to push down the stone wall and "conveniently" buried Chu Anlin's corpse in order to prevent the mental cultivation method from being leaked. To say that he truly had the heart to bury her, he was not qualified yet. He smiled bitterly and changed the topic, "At the same time, I have also become her last disciple. The difficult task of fulfilling her wish naturally fell on me."
Jiang Liechen snorted coldly, "Sect Leader Meng, I'm afraid you've underestimated the former Hierarch. The Divine Skill of the Sacrificial Shadow Sect was derived from the Seven Evils Incantation. It was broad and profound. How could a weak woman like her decipher it? If that was the case, you wouldn't have been bullied by me and my men, and you wouldn't have been completely powerless to retaliate. Her two direct disciples have fought against each other many times, and they are not at a disadvantage at all … "
Li Yijie said, "Shut up! It's just that I, as a disciple, haven't learned enough. How can I blame my Master? I'll definitely show you that the Seven Evils Incantation that you've always been so proud of is actually a set of vulgar tricks that can't even withstand a single blow. In the past, the former Hierarch thought that he was invincible and brave, but didn't he still die in the hands of his own disciple? There are talented people in every generation. Anything can happen in the world. I advise you not to be too complacent. Otherwise, the former Hierarch's old path will be your end! "
Jiang Liechen raised his eyes and said, "Your tone is not small. If that's the case, I'd like to see it for myself."
Meng Anying suddenly took Li Yijie's and Nangong Xue's hands, one on each side, and put their hands together. She said, "Yijie, in the past, Master was muddle-headed and missed the woman he loved the most in his life. He regretted it for the rest of his life. Your uncle's story is also similar … I only hope that the two of you can seize the happiness by your side in time. Master has one last request. After I die, please bury my corpse … cough cough, together with Anlin. The two of us can't be together when we're alive, but after we die … we still want to be together. "
Li Yijie was just about to agree, but then he remembered that Chu Anlin's remains were buried among the broken bricks and soil. They had long been unable to find her. Moreover, whether or not they could find the cave in the wilderness was still unknown. Seeing his Master's haggard appearance, his face devoid of life, he knew that he had forcefully used the Demonic Body Splitting Technique to break free from his shackles and come to compete with the Xuan Shuang. He wanted to fight against fate for the last time. Now, he was indeed a lamp that had run out of oil. He didn't have long to live. How could he bear to disappoint him again?
Before he could answer, Jiang Liechen spoke first, "Impudent! Chu Anlin is the wife of our Cult's former Hierarch. How could a scoundrel like you touch her so easily? "
Nangong Xue said coldly, "Is that so? I'm afraid that your great former Hierarch never really got my Master's wife, right? I don't know who was the one who thought too highly of himself and broke up a beautiful marriage. In the end, he acted like he was the fool. How preposterous. "
Jiang Liechen said angrily, "You …!" He raised his eyes and glared at him. His words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't continue. Then he sighed and said, "Now I finally understand why Menglin didn't receive the former Hierarch's appreciation even though he did his best to complete the mission. Anyone would feel the same. Seeing a familiar face appear in front of their eyes, but it's not the one they love. This kind of upheaval is really hard to bear. The former Hierarch was smart all his life, but he was foolish this time. He actually wasted a good foundation for a woman. "
Nangong Xue said, "Why do you have to pretend to be innocent when you've already gained something? If it weren't for the former Hierarch's carelessness, how could you have succeeded? "
Jiang Liechen's expression was cold. He said, "I forgot to look for you, but you came here yourself. You can't wait to die? That's good too. Li Yijie, you must know that I've always been merciful. Since you're so difficult to kill, I'll give you two choices. Please choose between your Master and your Shimei. "
Li Yijie still hadn't recovered from the initial shock. Now he turned pale with fright and blurted out, "Wh … What? What are you playing at? "
Jiang Liechen said indifferently, "I'm seriously advising you. You'd better not be tactful and play dumb again. Your Master is already a dying man. If you kill him now, you'll only be sending him on his way. You'll also be relieving him of the pain of the ruptured blood vessels in his body. But no matter what, there's a saying since ancient times. As a disciple, you should respect your Master. If a disciple kills his Master, no matter what the reason is, it's an offense against the superior. It's a heinous crime. If you kill your Master, who painstakingly raised you, because of this woman, then not only you, but even she won't be able to escape the condemnation of the righteous path. What's more, you bunch of hypocrites. Haven't you always paid attention to this? As the Wulin Alliance Head, you should set an example everywhere. If she kills your Master and the entire Mount Hua Sect, do you dare say that you can still be with her calmly? Do you dare to introduce her to others as the woman you worked so hard to protect? It's a pity that whoever I want to kill must die. You can't even fulfill your last wish. Therefore, I'm advising you. Before you make a decision, you'd better think it over clearly. Don't let yourself regret it. "
Li Yijie thought about how these two people were the most important to him. Even if they had minor illnesses and pains, it made him extremely anxious. Not to mention killing either of them, there was no need to talk about it. He shouted, "I won't choose! I won't choose either of them! "
Jiang Liechen said, "If you want to choose both of them to live, then you're choosing both of them to die together. Think carefully." Li Yijie looked at Meng Anying, then he looked at Nangong Xue. He clenched his fists so hard that blue veins popped out on the back of his hands. He gritted his teeth and said, "This … how do you want me to choose?" He really felt that this was the most difficult choice in his life.
Jiang Liechen leisurely said, "I don't care what you choose. But I don't have that much patience. If you delay any longer, I'll choose the second option for you. When that time comes, you'll drag the entire Mount Hua Sect down with you. "
Nangong Xue saw that the situation was critical and could not be ignored. She anxiously said, "Shixiong, just kill me. At least he was right about one thing: I'm a disciple, I can't betray my master and kill my master. "Li Yijie said," Are you saying that I can kill my fellow disciples? "Turning toward Jiang Liechen, he wanted to cry but had no tears. He said," You … do you really want to force me like this? If you don't force me into a dead end, you won't be able to dispel the hatred in your heart, right? Why can't you just come at me? What's the point of killing an innocent person? "
Jiang Liechen said, "An innocent person? In my opinion, no one in the world is innocent. Didn't you hear him say it himself? He swore to exterminate my Sacrifice Shadow Cult, to use blood as a sacrifice to the flag. If he didn't do that, why would he force me to kill my brother? "
Meng Anying heaved a deep sigh and said, "Yijie, this man is stubborn, you don't need to argue with him! Shifu is a man who has half his life buried in the yellow earth. Let me end my own life so that your name of loyalty and righteousness will not diminish. At the same time, it will also benefit you and Xueer. I've been your master for so many years, but I've never given you any benefits. Instead, I've caused you to be burdened by an undeserved reputation. Shifu has wronged you! Let this be the last thing Shifu will do for you in this lifetime! "As he said this, he waved his sleeve and a dagger appeared in it. He was about to stab his chest.
Li Yijie cried out in alarm. He grabbed Shifu's wrist and stopped the dagger. He knelt on the ground and begged, "Shifu, you … you want to make your disciple a sinner for all eternity! How can I look on helplessly as you lose your life, especially in front of me? Shifu … if you want to stab me with this dagger, you might as well stab your disciple. That way, I won't be in such a difficult situation! Shifu! "Meng Anying saw Li Yijie's face was full of tears. He couldn't bear it.
At this time, he suddenly heard someone call out, "Meng Zhangmen! You must not commit suicide! " Li Yijie turned his head to look. He saw Tong Zhi leading the Shaolin monks, as well as the Wulin fellows who had helped him in Liaodong, rushing up from the foot of the mountain. He struggled to prop up his stiff legs and said in astonishment, "Reverend Tong Zhi? You … why are you here? "
Tong Zhi put his palms together and saluted, "Amitabha Buddha. Li Meng Zhu, if Lao Na did not come, I'm afraid this Mount Hua area would be flooded with blood again. We came here to help Li Meng Zhu and to deal with that Ten Thousand Evil Demon! "
Li Yijie hastily returned the salute and said, "This … how can I dare to accept this? But everybody is coming to Huashan, Liaodong's defense is empty. Supposing he seizes the opportunity to divide his troops and attack, what can we do? "Tong Zhi said," Xia and Liu, two Zhuangzhu volunteered to lead the troops to guard Liaodong on our behalf. As long as the 'Seven Demons' do not personally make a move, with their abilities, Liaodong will not fall. "
Suddenly a cold laugh came from behind him. "Reverend Tong Zhi," he said, "Shaolin Pai's rules for several hundred years are really strict, aren't they? Therefore, you have been impatient for a long time. You just succeeded the Abbot, yet you want to abuse your power and immediately abolish it? If you want to talk behind someone's back, you should try to lower your voice. Unfortunately, I heard it all. "
Li Yijie was too focused on his conversation with Tong Zhi just now. He did not realize that Jiang Liechen had arrived behind him. When he hurriedly turned around, he was already a few steps behind. Jiang Liechen laughed coldly and said, "Don't panic. If I really wanted to make a move on you, I wouldn't even wait for you to realize that your head would be separated from your body." Li Yijie snorted and said, "Now I want to ask you again. In your plan, what role does the entire Liaodong territory play?"
