Capítulo 165: Chapter 165: Shizun, It's Him!
The claw, which had been infused with spiritual power, was suddenly pulled back, bringing with it a large patch of bright red.
Nangong Liu's mouth opened and closed, then closed and opened again, but he couldn't say a single word for a long time. It seemed like he didn't expect that Xu Shuanglin would make a hole in his back. After a long time, he finally spat out a large mouthful of blood and knelt stiffly on the ground.
"Father — —!!!!" Nangong Si's blood-curdling screams tore through the sky.
"Sect Leader!!"
"…!" Everyone was shocked.
Xu Shuanglin calmly crouched down and absent-mindedly took out a fruit from his Qiankun Pouch. He stuffed it into Nangong Liu's mouth and forced him to swallow it.
Mo Ran's eyes were sharp, and his expression immediately changed. "Lingchi Fruit?!"
The fruit that Xu Shuanglin fed to Nangong Liu was precisely the Lingchi Fruit that had kept the feathermen alive at the Peach Blossom Spring. It was the fruit that made them beg for death! Nangong Liu was in so much pain that he wished he was dead. His entire body curled up on the ground like a shrimp as he trembled violently. Xu Shuanglin looked at him. The light from the fire reflected in his eyes, making them look very warm.
"Sect Leader, I pity you. You've lived for most of your life, but in the end, you're still a good-for-nothing who can be manipulated by others."
Ye Wangxi said in horror, "Yifu?!"
"Father … let go of my father! Let go of him! " In the end, blood was thicker than water. Even though Nangong Liu couldn't bear it, seeing him in such a miserable state, Nangong Si still couldn't bear it. His hair stood up in anger, and he attacked Xu Shuanglin. However, Xu Shuanglin single-handedly blocked him with a defensive barrier.
Xu Shuanglin rolled his eyes and coldly glanced at him.
"When the elders are talking, the younger generation shouldn't interrupt. Kneel!"
After he finished speaking, he pointed his finger in the air. Nangong Si only felt that a thousand catties had fallen from his back. He couldn't stand up. He clenched his teeth and endured for a moment, but he still knelt heavily on the ground.
"Ah Si." Ye Wangxi immediately stood in front of Nangong Si. She couldn't point her sword at Xu Shuanglin, but she couldn't stand by and watch. For a moment, her expression was both painful and dazed. "Yifu, don't hurt him …"
"Who wants to hurt him? What is he?" Xu Shuanglin turned his gaze back to Nangong Liu. Then, he raised his leg and kicked Nangong Liu's bloody face. "After so many years, I can't help but reminisce with this person in front of all the tyrants in the world."
Nangong Liu coughed out a large mouthful of blood. "Reminisce? .... Didn't you tell me that as long as I called back Luo Fenghua's soul from the Abyss of Hell, I'd be able to break the curse he put on me? I'd be able to recover and never fear … never fear the night again. You lied to me … You actually … You actually lied to me … "
Hearing this, the young cultivators didn't react, but the expressions of Xue Zhengyong's generation all changed. Xue Zhengyong abruptly looked at the young man's corpse.
"Luo Fenghua?"
"It's Luo Fenghua!"
Lying on the ground was the body of the Nangong brothers' master from many years ago, the short-lived Sect Master who had once usurped power, the only Sect Master with a different surname in the Confucian Wind Sect, Luo Fenghua!
"You're dreaming," Xu Shuanglin said with a smile. "Break the curse? You killed him with your own hands back then, and now you drank his blood and ate his flesh. You're so cruel, but you still want to break the curse? You're really naive. "
"Don't tell me I shouldn't drink his blood and eat his flesh?! Although I tried to seize power and sent him to an early death, he left a curse on the Sect Master's Ring before he died. After I put it on, it's been more than ten years! There hasn't been a single day … cough cough, there hasn't … not a single day … that I've been able to live a normal life at night! Don't tell me … I shouldn't … "
"You should." Xu Shuanglin expressionlessly expressed his agreement. "You really should." Suddenly, his face twisted into a smile. He simply squatted down, lifted Nangong Liu's face, and said, "You did very well. No one can do better than you, be more outstanding, and be more obedient … Sect Master, no one can be more stupid than you."
With a sinister smile, he concluded, "Trash."
After Xu Shuanglin finished speaking, he slowly stood up. Unexpectedly, with a solemn and gentle smile on his face, he spread his arms and said cordially to everyone, "Honored guests, the banquet is over. I still have some desserts here that I'd like to invite everyone to taste together."
Someone angrily shouted, "Xu Shuanglin! What do you want to do?! "
"Actually, it's nothing. I just want to ask everyone to share some interesting stories. Confucian Wind Sect has disdained the cultivation world for a hundred years, and its stinking scandals are too many to mention. But among them, there's one thing that I've been waiting for for more than ten years. Today, I'm going to announce it to the public in front of the whole world. "
As he spoke to this point, his voice turned from high-pitched to gentle.
Then, he softly said, "I'm afraid this is the last secret history of Confucian Wind Sect."
When Nangong Liu heard him say this, a strong fear suddenly welled up in his heart. He rapidly stammered, and his lips trembled. He almost couldn't speak, but his eyes were fixed on the person standing above the lava. "You … Who the hell … are you?!"
Xu Shuanglin turned his face and smiled, but he didn't answer.
Suddenly, a ray of light shone in his hand, and a dagger appeared in his palm. He gripped it hard and cut his skin, causing blood to gush out from the palm of his hand. He dipped it in the blood and drew a formation on his arm. Then, he gently blew on it and said, "The small boat at the west window brings you into dreams."
Then he turned his head and smiled. "Sect Leader, if you want to know who I am, you'll know everything after you see these things."
Mo Ran wanted to stop him, but he was gently stopped by Chu Wanning.
"Shizun?"
"It's not an evil curse, it's a dream recall enchantment. It's very similar to the magic technique of the Peach Blossom Spring's feathermen. It's a magic technique that allows everyone to see his memories, "Chu Wanning said." Wait a moment. Let's see what he wants to say. "
The brilliance of the formation that Xu Shuanglin blew into the wind flowed. It flew higher and higher, continuously expanding. In an instant, the entire Lingshui Lake was enveloped by the formation. The fragmented memories were like sand powder, slowly falling from the sky. The surface of the lake was quickly covered by Xu Shuanglin's memories …
It was as if the snow had replaced the ground with a new layer of snow. As the power of the formation continued to overflow, the scene changed.
Although everyone was still standing around the Lingshui Lake, the vegetation and lava in front of them were fading away. In the end, it turned into the appearance of the Confucian Wind Sect's Flying Jade Pavilion.
In this illusion, the Flying Jade Pavilion was empty. There were only two people, one standing and one sitting.
The one standing was barefooted and dressed casually. His hair was not combed properly, and the crown on his head was even a little crooked. He was Xu Shuanglin. The one sitting was wearing a dark red robe and had a pale face. He was Nangong Liu.
Nangong Liu stroked the Sect Leader's thumb ring that was inlaid with a dark green jade. His face flickered with an excited and anxious light.
"Then, are the five Divine Weapons ready?"
Xu Shuanglin lazily said, "You've already asked me for the ninth time. If you ask me for the tenth time today, I'm going to quit."
Nangong Liu was unable to control his emotions. He couldn't help but shake his legs. "Okay, okay. Then let's wait for all the guests to arrive. Let's wait for the day of Si 'er's wedding. … Let me take a look at the list of sacrificial offerings. I want to see how many of the people on the list haven't arrived yet. "
Xu Shuanglin threw him a book, and Nangong Liu immediately flipped through it impatiently. His gaze was fanatical, like a thirsty person drinking water. He flipped through the book until the sound of 'hua hua' could be heard. He counted once, but he was still worried, so he counted a second time. His finger poked at the pages as if he wanted to poke a hole in the book.
"They're all here." Xu Shuanglin saw that he was crazily chanting and said, "There are more than twenty people with pure Five Elements. In addition, you've organized the Five Elements Spiritual Force Guards over the years. With the power of these people's spiritual cores and the help of the Divine Weapons, although the power is not as strong as directly using the essence of spiritual bodies, it's enough. I guarantee that we can open the gates of hell. "
Nangong Liu clenched the book and nodded repeatedly. "Okay."
"But this is the last good opportunity. If you mess it up again, I'm afraid it'll be even more difficult for you to break the curse."
"You can't mess it up!"
Xu Shuanglin lazily said, "You should say, you won't mess it up."
"Okay, okay, okay. I won't mess it up, I won't mess it up." Nangong Liu paused and said, "Shuanglin, I'm still worried. Let's go over the plan again?"
"… Big Brother, you've already done it ten or twenty times."
Nangong Liu didn't care. "A few more times. It's always better to be cautious."
Xu Shuanglin looked a little helpless. "Okay, as you wish."
Nangong Liu calculated and said, "On the eve of Si 'er's wedding, all the guests will come to the poetry stage. I'll arrange to draw lots and draw the twenty-one pieces that have been marked in advance." He looked up at Xu Shuanglin. "Then it's your turn."
"… Okay, I'll ask to go with you." Xu Shuanglin had no choice but to agree. "After entering the jungle, I'll lead the sacrifices to the Ganquan Lake and plant the precious chess pieces on them. They'll be obedient and give their spiritual power to the Divine Weapons. After this is done, I'll manipulate everyone to shoot the fuse into the sky and tear open the crack of hell. "
"Good, good!" Unlike Xu Shuanglin's laziness, Nangong Liu seemed to be very excited. He talked about strategy on paper, "After seeing the fireworks, I led five groups of guards and rushed to the Hunting Forest to meet up with you in the name of quelling the Sky Splitting Chaos. After that, we will make the five groups of guards into exquisite chess pieces and sacrifice them!"
Xu Shuanglin nodded and concluded, "There shouldn't be any mistakes."
"There can't be any mistakes." Nangong Liu clenched his thumb ring, and his face turned blue. "I've had enough, I've had enough …" He muttered for a while, then suddenly looked up and asked Xu Shuanglin, "Shuanglin, is it really okay to not use the essence of the spiritual body? What if the power of the Divine Weapons is not pure enough … "
"Don't worry, these five Divine Weapons are the best of the best, the peak of the peak. They have the ability to move mountains and fill seas. After absorbing the spiritual power of the sacrifices, they will succeed."
"What if? I'm saying what if, what if the gate of the Infernal Hell can't be opened? What if, like in Colorful Butterfly Town, someone comes out to stop us … Look at that Chu Wanning! "Nangong Liu spat." What Wanye Yuheng? What a busybody! Last time in Colorful Butterfly Town, I killed him by a stroke of luck. It was supposed to be a good thing, but who knew that old bald donkey Huaizui had the ability to bring him back from the dead — hateful! "
When Mo Ran saw this, he was furious. Back then, when Colorful Butterfly Town was in chaos, Confucian Wind Sect sent a large number of cultivators to quell the chaos. More than a hundred Confucian Wind Sect disciples died in that chaotic battle. These two people knew it very well …
Then, who was the fake Gouchen?
Was it Nangong Liu or Xu Shuanglin?!
"Chu Wanning's life is not meant to end." Xu Shuanglin said in the illusion, "He's a capable person. It's a pity that he died so easily."
"So what if he's capable? I just can't stand that arrogant face of his! "
"Oh, now that you mention it, I remember now. Sect Master Immortal, you saw Chu Wanning a few days ago, right? How was it? Since he came back from the dead, was his spiritual power damaged?"
"I don't know about his spiritual power, but his temper didn't decrease in the slightest." Nangong Liu said resentfully, "He's high and mighty, and he considers everyone beneath him. In front of him, I'm like a f * cking dog that rolled in the mud! "
Xu Shuanglin laughed. "That's an interesting analogy, Sect Master."
"It would've been better if you didn't mention it, but now that you mention it, I'm full of anger! I'm the Sect Master of the number one sect in the world. Not only do I have to nod and bow to Chu Wanning, but I also have to look at his disciple's face. That disciple of his is amazing, Grandmaster Mo. He has no rules, and his temper is worse than his master's. "
He took a deep breath, and a malicious glint flashed in his eyes.
"What a good Wood Essence Spiritual Body. I hate that I can't abandon Shenwu and use his flesh as a sacrifice to the heavens, just like my original plan! I'll tear open the gates of hell! "
"Jin Chengchi, the Peach Blossom Spring, failed twice." Xu Shuanglin said, "Later, he traveled alone for five years. During those five years, we couldn't find his whereabouts. The only time we could lure him into a trap, we succeeded in making him seriously injured by the Yellow River Serpent. However, that kid was lucky and was saved by Jiang Xi, who was passing by. Now, Mo Ran's wings are fully grown, and he's no longer the sixteen or seventeen year old boy. None of us can touch him. Using the Wood Essence Spiritual Body won't work. "
"Just wait and see!" Nangong Liu said angrily, "When I break the curse, my power will increase greatly. At that time, whether it's Grandmaster Chu or Grandmaster Mo, they'll have to kneel in front of me and listen to my orders!"
When Xu Shuanglin heard him say this, he just smiled and didn't say anything.
Nangong Liu was angry for a while and gradually calmed down. He stared at the ring on his hand and suddenly said, "Shuanglin, five years ago, you gave up looking for the Wood Essence Spiritual Body. It wasn't just because Mo Ran left the mountain to travel and disappeared, right?"
"… …"
Slowly looking up from the ring, Nangong Liu said, "It was also because you continued to investigate and found that the Earth Essence Spiritual Body was Ye Wangxi, right? You were reluctant to give up your adopted daughter. She's your only family in this world … … "
"I have no family in this world." Xu Shuanglin interrupted him expressionlessly, "What's more, Sect Leader, you know that the Fire Essence Spiritual Body is your son. Even if I was willing to give up Ye Wangxi, would you be willing to give up Si?"
"Forget it." Nangong Liu waved his hand and said with a sad expression, "Since Shenwu can be replaced, what else is there to say? Let's not talk about it anymore."
"What if Shenwu can't be replaced?"
Nangong Liu was shocked, "What do you mean?! Didn't you say that there would be no mistakes? "
"Sect Master, there's no need to be so nervous. I was just suddenly curious. If in this world, the only way to successfully open the Seamless Gate was to use those five living spirits and Si 'er as a sacrifice, what choice would the Exalt make? Would he continue to endure the pain of the curse, or … … "There was a hint of mockery at the corner of his mouth and he didn't say anything else.
Nangong Liu didn't answer. After a long time, so long that everyone thought this memory was going to end, Nangong Liu softly said, "Every man for himself, and the devil takes the hindmost."
"!"
Hearing him say this, everyone's face changed, especially Xue Zhengyong, who loved his son as much as his life. He couldn't understand Nangong Liu's choice at all. He said angrily, "Ridiculous … … Even a vicious tiger won't eat its own son. In order to live, you're willing to sacrifice your own son? This is ridiculous! "
Nangong Si stood stiffly in the same place. There was a blank expression on his face. Other than that, he didn't have any other expression. His eyes were empty … …
The scene turned black. Those sparkling memory fragments flipped and flipped again, making the tinkling sound of wind chimes colliding.
When the illusion lit up again, the sky was high and the clouds were vast. The towering snow mountain reflected a dazzling white light. Someone exclaimed, "Is that Jin Chengchi?!"
