His wish came true
This tall and sturdy youth was obviously not unfamiliar to Chu Xingyun. It was precisely Shi Hao.
His entire body was dyed in blood and covered in scars. He limped over to Chu Xingyun. Before he even opened his mouth, his knees heavily knelt down, and his head was deeply buried into the ground.
"Disciple Shi Hao pays his respects to master!"
A voice full of respect was spat out from Shi Hao's mouth. He raised his head and looked at Chu Xingyun. His body was trembling uncontrollably, and there were even tears flickering within his eyes.
When they saw this scene, quite a few people from Wanjian Pavilion shot over looks of disdain. However, Shi Hao didn't seem to mind. With a trembling voice, he said, "This disciple already knew that master would definitely return to Wanjian Pavilion, so I pretended to rely on Fan Wujie and swindled his trust. Just now, I was unable to help master. I hope master will punish me!"
After speaking, Shi Hao continuously kowtowed. He used so much force that even blood seeped out from his forehead. His entire body was filled with excitement.
Chu Xingyun smiled as he looked at Shi Hao. His arms were crossed in front of his chest, as if he was looking at a clown. Only after a while did he slowly spit out a word. "Your acting isn't bad."
Weng!
These five short words made Shi Hao's pupils suddenly contract. He suddenly felt a bit flustered. When he raised his head, he was met with Chu Xingyun's cold eyes. His mind immediately felt as if it had fallen into an ice cellar, and he was completely frozen in place.
"I was able to set up a scheme and toy with Wanjian Pavilion and Ancient Star Sect in the palm of my hand. Could it be that you think that I am unaware of your every move?" Chu Xingyun's sharp eyebrows jumped. Every single word was like a needle that pierced deeply into Shi Hao's heart.
His body trembled, and he kowtowed again. With a sobbing tone, he said, "Disciple was possessed for a moment. That's why I did such a stupid thing. I hope Master can forgive me once for the sake of our relationship as master and disciple. I swear that I will never do such a thing in the future. If I do, I will be struck by lightning!"
"A person's thoughts originate from their heart. From the moment I accepted you as my disciple, I already knew that your heart was not pure. You only acknowledged me as your master for your own personal benefits. The words that you are saying now are simply not persuasive at all." Chu Xingyun said with a sneer. His words made Shi Hao's eyes narrow slightly, and his entire being became sluggish.
From the very beginning, Chu Xingyun knew that his heart was not pure and that he would betray his sect in the future.
If that was really the case, why would Chu Xingyun take him in and give him the Nine Profound Yang Pill and the Profound Earth Sword Codex?
Doubts appeared in Shi Hao's mind one after another. Without waiting for him to ask, suddenly, streaks of sword light bloomed above Chu Xingyun's head. They pierced through the void and directly attacked him.
Pu pu pu pu!
The speed of the sword radiance was extremely fast. Before Shi Hao even had time to shout out, the sword radiance had already pierced into his body, completely sealing his spiritual sea. His entire body fell limp onto the ground, unable to move in the slightest.
"Little Hu." Chu Xingyun did not even look at Shi Hao. He looked to the side.
Soon, Chu Hu's figure appeared. He quickly flew over from the distance and finally stood in front of Chu Xingyun. His eyes were filled with confusion. He did not know why Chu Xingyun called him.
"This person's spiritual ocean has already been sealed by me. He has completely lost the ability to resist. Bring him back to the Wanjian Pavilion and hang him in the middle of the mountain gate. Wait for my judgment." Chu Xingyun slowly said.
"You aren't going to directly kill him?" Chu Hu was a bit curious. He vaguely heard the conversation between Shi Hao and Chu Xingyun. Towards someone who betrayed him, Chu Xingyun actually did not kill him. This was truly strange.
Chu Xingyun shook his head. He smiled mysteriously and said, "A traitor obviously cannot be left alive. However, if we just kill him like this, wouldn't it be letting him off too easily? Moreover, his existence is still somewhat useful."
When he heard Chu Xingyun's cold words, Shi Hao, who was lying limp on the ground, shivered. Suddenly, he felt a strong ominous feeling in his heart. It was as if he was about to fall into an abyss, never to be able to rise again!
At the same time, below the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain's Ten Thousand Peaks Cliff, fierce and roaring winds continued to blow. Ning Lefan, Lu Qingxuan, and the others closed their eyes and silently endured the biting winds.
Honglonglong!
Suddenly, a deafening rumbling sound rang out, rousing all of them from their stupor. As soon as they opened their eyes, the layers of spiritual formations that surrounded the Ten Thousand Peaks Cliff actually scattered like water ripples. In the end, they completely disappeared.
Such a terrifying commotion also woke up Lu Xing from his state of meditation. He looked straight ahead, only to see two pitch-black figures rushing over and slowly descending in front of them.
"You all …" Lu Xing subconsciously spat out a word. However, when he saw the faces of these two pitch-black figures, his entire body shivered. His mouth opened wide, and he was unable to continue speaking.
Apart from him, the others who were imprisoned in the Ten Thousand Peaks Cliff were also shocked by these two familiar faces. The entire Ten Thousand Peaks Cliff entered a deathly silence. The atmosphere became extremely strange.
"It seems like I came in time. You all didn't suffer any casualties." Right at this moment, a voice that carried a bit of a smile sounded. Chu Xingyun's figure descended from the sky. When he looked at Ning Lefan, Lu Qingxuan, and the others, his eyes carried a bit of a smile.
"Master?!"
Chu Xingyun's appearance caused the already shocked crowd to be even more shocked. However, before they could speak, they saw the two pitch-black figures slowly bow their backs and say in unison, "Master."
Suddenly, the Ten Thousand Peaks Cliff fell into a deathly silence again. Even the whistling wind that was piercing to the bone stopped blowing at this moment. Everyone looked at each other, and they all thought that they were hallucinating.
"Chang Chixiao and Qin Qiumo actually didn't die. Moreover, they even called Master 'Master'?" After a long while, Shui Qianyue was the first to break the silence. However, just as she spoke, the crowd fell silent again.
This, this isn't a hallucination?
The crowd looked at the two Sword Slaves, then looked at Chu Xingyun. This strange scene caused them to feel that they couldn't think properly. Even Lu Xing was the same. His brows were tightly knit together to the point it almost became a straight line.
Chu Xingyun saw the expressions of the crowd, and he smiled as he shook his head and said, "What happened during this period of time is too complicated. I can't explain it clearly in a short time. Let's leave this place first. I'll slowly explain it to all of you later."
Hearing this, the crowd immediately stopped their wild thoughts and nodded heavily towards Chu Xingyun. However, doubts were doubts. At this moment, their hearts were filled with wild joy. Until now, they still felt as if they were in a dream.
During this period of time when they were imprisoned, all of them firmly believed that Chu Xingyun would absolutely not heartlessly abandon them. Just now, this thought of theirs had come true.
This feeling of having their thoughts come true was both dreamy and wonderful. They were unable to use words to describe it.
"Master!" All of a sudden, Shui Qianyue's voice sounded.
She quickly walked in front of Chu Xingyun, and a serious expression erupted from her face. She said, "During the time you were gone, not only did Shi Hao betray the sect, he even took Fan Wujie as his master. This person seems simple and honest, but his heart is incomparably sinister. You must be careful of him."
Shui Qianyue's words immediately brought the crowd back to their senses. In their minds, Shi Hao's cruel face suddenly appeared. Just as they were about to speak, Chu Xingyun waved his hand. A mysterious smile once again appeared at the corners of his mouth.
