Chapter 184: Supreme Master
Zeng Jianqiu didn't ask any more questions, but whispered, "The True Form Sect's people have occupied You Jiu Yuan, you have to be careful. But they probably wouldn't have thought you would go there... You still have to be careful."

"Yeah." Li Wuying responded, and couldn't help thinking that Zeng Jianqiu was still a serious swordsman at this time - if they didn't want to talk about what they were looking for and what they were going to do, he would never ask more questions. This made him feel a little warm in his heart, and he couldn't help but say, "Actually-"

"I know. I can tell." Zeng Jianqiu sighed, "Miao Yi is Lou He, right? If he doesn't want to meet me as Lou He, then let him be."

These words left Li Wuxiang speechless for a moment. At this time, several people had already rushed to the dense forest behind Wenxin Pavilion. They could still hear the footsteps and voices of Tianxin Sect disciples running upwards not far away. Then, they suddenly heard a shrill scream from farther away, as if someone was suffering great pain in an instant.

The voice came from the direction of the Tianxin Illusion. Li Wuxiang initially thought that the disciples of Tianxin were killing each other for the treasure, but the next moment he realized that the voice was very familiar - it seemed to be Hou Wanzhong's voice!

Hou Wanzhong and Xin Yiping didn't seem interested in the property, and seemed to be dissatisfied with the fact that they had emptied the Tianxin Illusionary Realm of other things. Naturally, they would not fight for those things. So... they took advantage of this chaos to seek revenge on each other? Was Hou Wanzhong attacked by Xin Yiping?

But just as this thought came to his mind, Li Wuxiang heard a second scream, which was equally shrill and long, with a trembling and unreserved voice, as if the person was completely unable to bear the pain he was suffering. He had no idea what had happened.

This is Xin Yiping's voice!

Were Hou Wanzhong and Xin Yiping both ambushed?

"Brother, you guys keep going down, I'll take a look at what's going on!" After saying this, Li Wuxiang immediately jumped high in the forest and jumped onto the treetops.

It wasn't that Guiyin Zhenjun. The moon halo in the sky had been stretched into a long strip, finally falling to the ground. In the direction of Taiyi Palace on the top of Yulun Mountain in the distance, a twisted blue light like mist burst out, suffusing the entire sky and the ground. The power of that flying sword had reached the end of its strength, and it was also attacked by the blue light, turning into a light green color, looking like a ghost fire.

Where Guiyin Zhenjun was, the sky and the ground seemed to have become a pool of light blue water, and the ground collapsed and melted downwards, as if a huge well had appeared on the top of the mountain.

But it can still be seen that Guiyin Zhenjun's human form has not left. She can move, but she is only floating and dancing slowly in this pool of "well water", looking very much like she is adapting to the environment of the living world.

Who is that? Someone from Tianxin Sect?

At this time, a third scream was heard, equally sharp and piercing, followed by the panicked cries of the Tianxin Sect disciples. Li Wuxiang could distinguish the main words among them, such as "elder" and "master", which seemed to indicate that the person who was attacked was not an ordinary person in the sect. Then, another word was also caught by his ears -

"Supreme Master"!
Someone started shouting “Supreme Master”!
Li Wuxiang immediately stepped on the top of the tree and turned back towards the direction of the Tianxin illusion in the back mountain!

The Tianxin disciples who were heading that way before also started running down the mountain. When Li Wuxiang passed by them, he heard them shouting something like "Grandmaster" was crazy. When he reached the cliff next to the illusion again, he finally saw the scene clearly -

Almost all the people who had gone to scramble for the gold, silver and treasures on the ground had run away. Those who were left standing in front of the stone cave entrance did not look like ordinary disciples, but people who held positions in the sect. There were only a few dozen of them.

Now, these dozens of people were either holding spells or weapons in their hands, but they didn't look like they were going to attack. It was more like they had prepared their magical powers to protect themselves after a sudden change. But the scene they saw afterwards made them feel a little overwhelmed for a moment, and they could only stand there stupidly -

There were three bodies lying on the ground. Li Wuxiang didn't recognize one of them, but the other two were Hou Wanzhong and Xin Yiping.

The deaths of these three people were extremely tragic, their faces were unrecognizable, their faces looked like they had been bitten by wild beasts, their flesh and blood were swollen, their chests and abdomens were also swollen - they were already open, and their organs were gone.

It wasn't that it disappeared out of thin air, but that it had entered the mouth. The black cat that I had seen in the medicine garden was now squatting beside the third corpse, eating, and occasionally glancing at the people around it. Behind the black cat was "Jin Zijiu". She stood there hunched over, with her eyes slightly closed, as if she was resting.

When Li Wuxiang arrived, he heard a man asking in a trembling voice: "Sect Master Jin... why is this happening? The sect has encountered a major change, why are you doing this..."

Jin Zijiu didn't say anything at first, but when Li Wuxiang landed on the cliff, she seemed to have heard it and immediately opened her eyes to look over here.

When the people below saw her eyes, they quickly turned their heads to look over here. When they saw that it was Li Wuxiang, almost all of them breathed a sigh of relief!
Naturally, no one was convinced by Li Wuxiang, the leader of the Tianxin Sect - not only did they lose their prospects for promotion, but their illusion was also emptied and the Tianxin Sect was destroyed!

But at this critical moment, the new sect leader is a great savior compared to the supreme sect leader in front of him!
Because this supreme leader suddenly appeared in the crowd just now, and the black cat monster beside him first killed the elder Hou Wanzhong with one attack, then Xin Yiping, and then, it was the head of the Shenxing Hall, Gu Wenxi!
Then, when these people were still breathing, the Supreme Sect Leader cut open their stomachs and watched the cat demon begin to feast on human flesh!
The Supreme Master is crazy!
And this new leader... he is a swordsman! There is nothing much to say!
These people immediately retreated towards Li Wuxiang, shouting in unison - "Master, help me!"

Li Wuxiang took a step forward, stepped on the air and floated down. As soon as he landed, the people around him immediately gathered behind him.

He looked at the three corpses on the ground and asked in a low voice: "Senior, when we were in the medicine garden before, didn't you say that you wouldn't teach me how to deal with the disciples of Tianxin Sect? What's going on now?"

Jin Zijiu smiled slightly, his voice still sounding very old: "For ordinary disciples, that's natural, but if it's a fight between fellow disciples, it's not included. Did you save the glimmer of hope for Tianxin Sect that I want?"

"If you are referring to Cheng Shengfei, then he will be saved." Li Wuxiang glanced in the direction of Taiyi Palace, "But do you only want that glimmer of hope? You don't want anything else?"

Jin Zijiu shook his head: "Of course not. Every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor. I am only looking for the person I am looking for. But it has been a long time, I probably can't remember it clearly——"

She looked over Li Wuxiang's shoulder and at the Tianxin Sect disciples behind him: "More than sixty years ago, Zhou Ruixin came to you and asked about the suppression of Guiyin Zhenjun - these three people on the ground listened to Zhou Ruixin's words, and there should be some people who are the same as them."

"There are thirty-two people here now. Including these three and Zhou Ruixin, there should be thirty-six at that time. At least nineteen of them listened to him. I won't ask any more questions about the others. I only want fifteen of you - fifteen stand up, and the rest, for the sake of your new sect leader, go down the mountain as soon as possible!"

More than sixty years ago? An old grudge of the Tianxin Sect? No... For a cultivator, sixty years doesn't seem to be considered "old".

Li Wuxiang glanced behind him and saw that many people immediately showed fear on their faces, but most of them remained silent and looked at each other. After a while, someone said, "Master Jin... I didn't do that back then! Everyone can testify to this!"

After he said this, no one spoke. Jin Zijiu didn't say anything either, and the man slowly took two steps back, turned around and ran away.

As soon as he ran away, someone else started to speak up: "I am not Sect Leader Jin either!"

After this person left, more people started talking, shouting and running. Two breaths later, except for the person who was still standing behind Li Wuxiang, everyone else was running down the mountain.

Jin Zijiu laughed and said, "Only these eight people are wrong, so don't leave."

When the people who were leaving heard this, they immediately turned around and looked around, then shouted -

"Shen Mohan said he agreed!"

"...and Lu Changfeng!"

"Master Han, please don't harm us!"

"..."

As soon as the name was spoken, the black cat that was gnawing on its internal organs opened its eyes and immediately pounced into the crowd. Its movements were so fast that Li Wuxiang only had time to see a shadow, but this shadow seemed to be much larger than the black cat itself, more like the shadow of a ferocious beast like a lion or tiger... He even felt that he could vaguely see scales!
Li Wuxiang really didn't have time to react, because the shadow carried a terrifying aura, very much like an external evil. However, the external evil's majesty was high above, like a mountain pressing down on one's head, making people feel irresistible and unable to resist from the bottom of their hearts, as if a person was facing the authority directly and could see the other person's true face.

However, this kind of aura now seems distant and ethereal, like a person who has heard that somewhere far away there sits the son of the Emperor of Heaven with great power and influence, but that kind of power is too far away to make people feel real awe!

So in the moment when he was distracted, seven more corpses appeared on the ground.

There should have been more than seven names called out by this group of people just now, but Jin Zijiu seemed to have really kept his promise. When seven people fell to the ground, including the eight standing behind him, there were exactly fifteen names.

Then the black cat suddenly stopped, and the shadow merged with it and disappeared.

"You eight, do you want to do it yourself, or ask me to do it?" Jin Zijiu said slowly, but her tone was cold. Li Wuxiang found it difficult to connect her with the kind old man in the medicine garden. "If you ask me to do it, your soul will not be saved. But if you do it yourself, maybe you can go to Lingshan and become a resentful ghost. Maybe you can even have a chance to become a ghost cultivator, a wild god, or something like that."

Li Wuxiang heard a subtle sound behind him. It seemed that the eight people were trembling. One of them whispered desperately: "... Sect Master, Sect Master, save me!"

These people stood still and did not make excuses. It seemed that no matter what happened more than 60 years ago, they were the ones who were in the wrong. Li Wuxiang did not necessarily have to save them, but he was really curious about what happened in the past that made this "Supreme Sect Master" endure until today to take action - freeing Guiyin Zhenjun from repression should be the result she wanted.

So Li Wuxiang pointed in the direction of Taiyi Palace and said, "Senior, things over there can't wait."

Jin Zijiu smiled and said, "I know what to do with that matter."

So she really has a way to deal with Guiyin Zhenjun who has escaped from his suppression! ?
Li Wuxiang's heart was relieved at once: "Okay. Since I am now considered the leader of Tianxin Sect, Senior, can you tell me what happened more than 60 years ago? If I encounter it again in the future, I can avoid it and see whether these people behind me deserve to die."

Jin Zijiu sighed: "You probably won't encounter this kind of thing again in the future."

She looked like she didn't want to talk.

Li Wuxiang was silent for a moment. He was curious, but he didn't necessarily have to satisfy it at this time and in this place. It was just that when he was in the medicine garden before, he thought that this senior had good intentions, but later he found out that he actually had ulterior motives.

This kind of ulterior motive may not be called exploitation, but it is just that each party gets what it needs from one thing. In the end, he has achieved his goal and obtained the Tianxin secret treasure, which seems to be a great bargain.

However, now the black cat is eating people. "I wish I could eat its flesh and drink its blood" is a description, but if someone or something really does this, it means that in the mind of this thing, people seem to be no different from other things. Since there is no difference, many thinking patterns used to speculate on people's hearts may not apply to it.

So he wanted to find out whether the true intention of this "Supreme Master" was the same as the external evil in his body before, or whether he really had some kindness in him.

So he stopped looking at Jin Zijiu and looked at the black cat instead, and said, "Senior, this is probably not the only thing you don't want others to know. If this matter is not clarified, I'm afraid I won't be at ease with other things."

The black cat had already walked back to Jin Zijiu and continued to gnaw the corpse on the ground. After hearing this and seeing Li Wuxiang's eyes, it squatted down, raised its front paws to lick them, and then began to wash its face, but its pair of golden eyes were wide open and staring at him intently.

After Black Cat wiped his ears a few more times, Jin Zijiu spoke up, "If you really want to know, ask the people behind you first."

Li Wuxiang turned around and looked at the person behind him: "What's going on?"

The man he was looking at looked at Jin Zijiu and Black Cat, then looked at him. His throat moved, and after hesitating for a moment, he knelt on the ground: "Sect Master, if you were the Tianxin Sect Master in the past, you would have no choice, and we would have no choice either! This is all for the sect!"
