Chapter 147: After forcing Song Yuan to death, Cui Chan committed suicide to "kill his father" for Song Fanjing!
It was early in the morning, and the morning light shone through the cracks in the forest.

The demon is locked in the forest.

Cui Chan, who is an elder of the huge mountain gate, now has gray hair on his temples. He is clearly in the prime of his life, but he looks like he is on the verge of old age.

now,

He was standing with his hands behind his back, teaching the disciples of the 'Demon Locking Forest' lineage to practice the famous 'Yunluan Demon Slaying Sword'.

However, even though he had a hunched back and looked like a man in his sixties or seventies, his shoulders could not jump without being startled.

but,
All the disciples who were taught by him were respectful to him and obeyed his orders.

Ever since the "Demon Forest Disaster" that year.

As Cui Chan inherited the position of elder of the Demon Locking Forest from his deceased master.

From then on, under his hands, this double-edged sword of treasure land that suppressed and absorbed the blood and power of demons and turned it into nourishment for his disciples, no demon ever escaped again.

Now it has been decades of ups and downs.

Cui Chan performed his duties conscientiously and diligently, no matter if he was Yun Luan's true disciple, an inner disciple, or an ordinary disciple like a peddler carrying firewood.

No one could help but stand in awe upon hearing his name.

It can be said,
Except for Ruan Xiuxiu, who has reached the fourth step of cultivation and reached the level of true person.

Cui Chan is the core number two figure.

Even the previous sword master Song Yuan could not match him.

"The Sword Master has returned and wants to see me?"

Cui Chan, who was holding the arm of a new disciple, straightening his waist and hips, and instructing him on his practice, tilted his head to look at the disciple who was reporting in front of the mountain gate, and was a little confused:

"Didn't she go after the Great Snow Demon King Song Fanjing? The old sword master and I tried our best to dissuade her. After all, so many years have passed. Even if she found a corpse, what would it matter?"

"Perhaps, for no reason, Song Fanjing will come back like a surprise and attack again."

"However, fortunately, she returned intact, and it would be good to see her. It just so happens that the state government also has news that has spread throughout the Aquarius City."

Having said this, Cui Chan seemed to have breathed a sigh of relief. He patted the disciple on the shoulder, indicating that he should practice on his own first. Then he smiled and walked towards the Sword Master Hall:
"A duke-level figure has taken action in Dazhao."

"Duke of Liang, Lan Jingyu, was considered a top figure even in those days when there were so many stars shining brightly."

"Now that he has personally led the army to help, and there are many real people raiding the battlefield, as long as the Jinghe Dragon King and the Ten Thousand Monsters Alliance Leader do not risk their entire family assets and come out in full force from the northwest wilderness where they are hiding, they will not be able to do anything to him."

"I think the recovery of lost territory will be put on the agenda soon. Even Song Fanjing would not dare to take such a risk and continue to attack Yunluan Mountain."

"Moreover, there have been rumors coming from the foot of the mountain recently that the warriors who were once famous and buried there decades ago have all revived."

"If Song Chaixin is also on this list"

"Then how can Song Fanjing have the energy to care about Yunluan Mountain?"

Cui Chan walked forward muttering to himself, while the disciple who came to report to him was sweating coldly.

He hesitated several times to speak.

But I remembered the ban of Ruan Jianzhu
In the end, there was still no further words.

Sword Master Hall.

Ruan Xiuxiu dismissed everyone.

The atmosphere was terrifyingly heavy.

She sat in the main seat, with two screens behind her, and it seemed that there was no one there.

at this time.

"Da da da"

There was a sound of footsteps.

Stepping on the glazed jade plate, Cui Chan walked in. He saw Ruan Xiuxiu, who had an expressionless face, and was about to say something.
The disciple on the side was already trembling with fear, and bowed to the leader with extraordinary bearing:
"Master Sword Master, Elder Cui has been brought here. I will take my leave first!"

After saying this, he glanced at the screens on both sides, and as if he knew something, he left in a hurry as if he was escaping.

At this moment, Cui Chan also sensed something was wrong, so he frowned slightly, touched the Buddhist beads on his wrist, and turned them a few times:

"Junior sister, what's the important matter you want to tell me today?"

With a frosty face, Ruan Xiuxiu, who held a high position, carefully looked at this senior brother with whom she had worked for decades, and was rarely silent for a moment.

Decades ago, she was the true disciple of Guanjian Forest, and Cui Chan was the chief of Suoyao Forest. Both of them were disciples cultivated by the three elders with all their efforts, and they were quite familiar with each other.

When Ruan Xiuxiu was beginning to fall in love with Ji Xia, she was secretly upset and felt bored when she returned to the mountain.

She also laughed at Cui Chan's desire to create the "Song Fanjing", saying that he was a toad wanting to eat swan flesh.

Cui Chan responded without any hesitation, and through the change of his expression, he revealed that she had someone outside and was concerned about Song Chaixin.

This made his master, Elder Guan Jian, feel like he was facing a formidable enemy.

After repeated questioning, he got the clue. He was furious and wanted to go down the mountain to Xie's house to find that old man Xie Qiaoxuan and settle accounts with him. Thinking about it now, he still felt it was quite funny and interesting, but the matter was...
How did it become like this today?

If anyone else in this world told her that Cui Chan was the mastermind who released the demons in the Demon Locking Forest that night, she would not believe it.

But rather,
It was Ji Xia who opened the mouth.

It just so happened.

That night, there were two people in the Demon Locking Forest, and he was there too.

So Ruan Xiuxiu
shaken.

"Senior Brother." Ruan Xiuxiu sat quietly and suddenly said softly.

"." Cui Chan twisted the Buddhist beads in his hand faster, waiting for the next words from the yellow-robed sword master in front of him.

"Remember, after your teachers died of exhaustion, you went to the Demon-Subduing Temple to ask for the so-called 'Buddha beads to ward off evil'. You heard that they have the effect of purifying the mind."

"You said that after that night, you tossed and turned every day, unable to sleep, and even your mind was about to be crushed. But now, you have practiced martial arts to the Yuandan level, how come you still have the habit of turning the Buddhist beads for decades?"

The hall has a quiet atmosphere.

Ruan Xiuxiu rarely reminisces about the past.

Plus.
It's been weighing on my mind for decades.

Cui Chan's hand suddenly stopped.

Inadvertently, the finger bones exerted a little force.

immediately----

All I heard was a 'click'!
Suddenly, one of the sandalwood Buddhist beads on Cui Chan's wrist was cracked by him.

Then they shattered one by one, as if a chain reaction had started. There was a crackling sound, and more than a dozen Buddhist beads rolled to the ground and hit the glazed jade plate in the hall with a crisp sound.

Cui Chan let out a bitter laugh and bent over as if to pick it up:
"Really? I'm old now, and I can't even hold the beads with my hands anymore. How come I accidentally broke them today after holding them for decades? Sigh."

He lowered his head to pick up the Buddhist beads on the ground, and glanced at the screens on both sides of Ruan Xiuxiu's seat from the corner of his eye:
"I'm used to wearing these beads. Otherwise, I still can't let go of what happened in the past after so many years. I always dream about my master and my uncle."

"Maybe I'll change the date and go to the Demon Temple to ask for another string."

"By the way, Junior Sister, why do I feel like there's something wrong with these two screens today?"

Cui Chan narrowed his eyes, his mind slowly moved, and gradually saw the clues from behind the screen.
However, the moment he opened his mouth, Ruan Xiuxiu suddenly said:
"I can't let it go,"

"Or is there something fishy going on?"

Swish!
Cui Chan’s arms stiffened.

And this time,
Behind the screen, a young man in black clothes walked out with his hands behind his back and a calm tone.

"You are."

Cui Chan looked at the young man. Although he didn't recognize his face, he inexplicably felt that his aura was somewhat familiar.

"Brother Cui, don't you recognize me?"

Ji Xia smiled slightly, and used the power of Yuan Dan to change his appearance. As his face blurred and changed, Cui Chan's face finally changed color. After a long while, he murmured:
"It turns out that rumor about Montenegro is true."

"You are indeed back."

Ji Xia shook her head, her expression suddenly straightened up:
"No, don't confuse me with those 'Nirvana Corpses', Brother Cui."

"Decades."

"Do you really think that what happened back then was perfect?"

Cui Chan's breathing became a little heavy:
"Junior Brother Song, what on earth are you talking about?"

He was wearing a light grey round-necked robe, not Yun Luan's white dress. Decades had passed, and it seemed as if he had passed the age of high spirits.

At this moment, the dozen or so Buddhist beads that were slowly pinched in the palm of his hand seemed to have several more cracks.

"Brother, did you ever admire 'Senior Sister Song' in the past?" Staring at Cui Chan's haggard appearance, Ji Xia suddenly smiled.

This made Cui Chan silent for a while.

"Logically speaking, she released the demons to cause chaos and brought disaster to the entire Yunluan Mountain. Shouldn't you be filled with righteous indignation at her and want to kill her as soon as possible?"

"But Senior Brother Cui, why have you never expressed hatred towards her from beginning to end?"

"It's clear that the three elders died in Yunluan Mountain!"

Ji Xia walked towards him step by step, as if in a nightmare, in Cui Chan's eyes, and his figure became bigger and bigger.

Ming
He was the one who had cultivated Yuan Dan to the third level and had reached the "Heavenly Realm". He could summon the Heavenly Realm and suppress all existences in the field. But why did Ji Xia's few words make his heart tighten and he felt as if he was suffocating?
Holding his chest, Cui Chan's forehead gradually broke out in sweat. He could obviously deny it categorically or scold Song Fanjing.

but.
But he couldn't do it.

Why can't it be done?
because,

When he heard the words 'the elder was buried in Yunluan'.

Cui Chan's face turned pale, as if something had struck him directly in the heart. He was instantly in a trance, as if the biggest secret of his life had been revealed in such a bloody way.

At this moment, unknowingly.

Ji Xia had already walked in front of him, only one step away from him, and at the same time, his tone gradually became indifferent, and he said:

"Brother Cui."

"I know who you met in Black Mountain City."

"And on that night in the 'Demon Locking Forest', unfortunately, I was also there."

"If you do this, you will be worthy of Elder Guan Jian, Elder Su Wu, and..."

"Your own master, the Demon-Locking Elder."

Click!

It was like a thunderbolt hitting Cui Chan's head. At that moment, hearing Ji Xia's words, Cui Chan took several steps back, caught off guard:
"I!"

The words were not left.

Then I heard Ji Xia speak calmly again:
"That's right, senior brother."

"Do you know who else has come to Yunluan Mountain today?" Cui Chan couldn't help but look at Ji Xia.

At this time——

The temperature suddenly dropped to 10 degrees Celsius.

His pupils shrank slightly, and he looked at Ruan Xiuxiu, whose eyes were filled with disappointment, as if she had confirmed something.

He couldn't help but turn his head and look outside the 'Sword Master Hall'.

See!

On Yunluanping, everything is within sight!
Suddenly, a woman with an ice sword in five fingers, wearing a palace skirt and snow-white hair, and a pair of bare feet, stepped on the air waves and rushed out, and then!

The former sword master 'Song Yuan', who was resting in the underground palace, was startled out!
Cui Chan's eyes narrowed, and he couldn't help but look at Ruan Xiuxiu who was sitting at the main seat:

"Sword Master, how could you bring her into the mountain? Aren't you afraid that she will destroy the entire Yunluan Mountain out of hatred?!"

"Even if she didn't hurt any of the disciples a few days ago, the fact that she wanted to kill Sword Master Song and wipe out Yunluan's inheritance is already a disaster. How can you just watch and play with our ancestors' foundation?!"

Listening to Cui Chan's fierce words.

Ruan Xiuxiu finally sighed, with a complicated look in her eyes:

"Brother Cui, didn't you realize that Song Fanjing went to the top of the mountain to kill you after you and I had been confronting each other in the hall for a long time and showed some clues?"

Cui Chan's pupils trembled, and he looked at the screen, only to see two more women walking out, one was Pei Luye, and the other was Su Yue. At this time, he suddenly thought of something, and immediately pointed at the screen and said:

"Could it be that just now..."

Ruan Xiuxiu closed her eyes:

"good."

"She's right here, just listening."

"Brother Cui."

"Although you didn't say anything, your actions have proved everything."

At this point, her face became dejected:

"If you say that everything that happened back then had nothing to do with Song Fanjing from beginning to end."

"What right do I, Yunluan Mountain, have to blame her? She even saved us when the Lord of the Great Snow Mountain came."

"so."

"I acquiesced. She went to Yunluanping to face Song Yuan and kill her father with her own hands."

"Brother Cui, since you feel guilty about what happened back then, will you admit it?"

Crash.

The Buddhist beads were scattered all over the floor.

Cui Chan knelt down, held his face in his hands, and looked through his fingers at the scattered Buddhist beads on the ground with a dazed look.

At this moment, he thought a lot.

Until two lines of turbid tears flowed from between his fingers, he trembled and cried:

“I had no choice back then, no choice.”

"I didn't want to do that. I didn't expect that this incident would lead to the death of three teachers and make the young palace master's life bumpy from now on. If Song Yuan hadn't been a step slower, a step slower, it wouldn't have come to this, it wouldn't have come to this!"

boom!
Cui Chan punched the ground hard, looked at Ruan Xiuxiu, and then at Ji Xia.

Then he turned his back to the two of them and looked at the fight between Song Fanjing and Song Yuan outside the hall. His body went limp, as if a huge mountain had been lifted off his shoulders. He spoke slowly:
"then."

He confessed the old secrets that Bai Qiuyi had coerced him into using his "parents and family" as a threat, and admitted his guilt.
at the same time----

On Yunluanping.

"How did you get into Yunluan Mountain?" Song Yuan, with his hair disheveled, felt his scalp tingling as he looked at the snow-haired woman in front of him whose eyes were becoming increasingly cold.

The huge commotion caused all the Yunluan disciples all over the mountain to look up at the sky.

When they saw this scene, they were all horrified:

"Is it the Snow Demon King? Why is she in the mountains? "

"Where is the Sword Master? Why is it that only Patriarch Song Yuan is fighting alone?!"

At this time, the wind and clouds gathered.

Song Yuan used all his life's knowledge to compete with Song Fanjing in the air and fight!

But I was shocked to find
Unknowingly.

This good daughter has actually gone ahead of him and has gone very, very far!

Not only does he have the so-called "king-level" physique, but
Her cultivation level is still approaching the second level 'giant'!
He was almost beaten to the point where he had no chance of defending himself!
If we continue,

There may be life and death danger!

So, he looked towards the Sword Master Hall anxiously:

“Ruan Xiuxiu! What are you doing! How can we fight against Song Fanjing if you let him into the mountain? Do you want me to die here and end the inheritance of Yunluan Mountain for the next generation?!”

He roared wildly, his clothes were constantly being torn by the sword energy, covered with blood, and he looked extremely miserable.

Just in Song Yuan's thousand hopes and ten thousand hopes.
at last!

When Ruan Xiuxiu came out from the Sword Master's Hall!

But he heard a sentence that made him feel like he was falling into an ice cellar:
"As long as I, Ruan Xiuxiu, am here to inherit the Yunluan legacy, it will never be broken in this generation or in the future."

"but"

"Yun Luan's sword is dirty."

“Besides, it’s been dirty for decades.”

Thinking of Cui Chan's confession, thinking of the three elders, his own master, it was not because of the culprit "Song Fanjing", but because of Cui Chan, because Song Yuan came late, that they died of exhaustion in order to protect their disciples.
Ruan Xiuxiu's heart tightened in pain.

Therefore,
The look she gave Song Yuan at this moment was already icy cold.

For so many years,

She just thought that Song Yuan was a scumbag who would do anything to achieve his goals, but he was still competent to the entire Yunluan Mountain.

Can!
Until this moment,
She just discovered
I was really wrong!

"Sword Master, what do you mean by this?"

"My Yunluan sword is dirty?"

Ruan Xiuxiu just stood by and watched.

All the Yunluan disciples were stunned.

And this time,
Cui Chan walked out of the 'Sword Master Hall'.

He looked at the turmoil in the mountain and at the embarrassed Song Yuan, then he staggered step by step and walked silently to the cemetery on the back mountain and knelt in front of the tombstones of the three elders.

Just when all the disciples were puzzled and even felt angry at Ruan Xiuxiu's silence.
call!
Cui Chan knelt among the weeds and mud, and gathered all his strength. He suddenly let out a long howl, and with the power of the 'Yuan Dan' heavenly man, he made his howl resound throughout the early morning sea of ​​clouds!

"I!"

"Cui Chan!"

"Sixty years ago, on Yunluan Mountain, the demon from the Divine Blood Cult threatened him with his family, so he released the demons from the Demon Locking Forest. As a result, the elders of the previous 'three major lineages' died in battle, and seven out of ten Yunluan disciples died!"

"So many years."

"Sword Master Song Yuan has been putting the blame on Song Fanjing out of selfish motives, but in fact..."

"She is innocent."

"All the sins are mine, my disciples."

boom!
First, he kowtowed in front of three moss-covered graves.

Then, Cui Chan turned around and knocked on the mountain gate again!

"Now, my teachers, parents, peers and relatives have all passed away. I have no relatives left, but I have kept this secret for many years, and I feel tormented in my heart."

"I dare not, I dare not expose it, but I feel guilty towards the young palace master. Fortunately, today..."

"Finally, I can talk about all this."

"Cui Chan, I committed suicide today because of my sin. I hope you will come back."

"In the future, Sword Master and Fairy Song will be able to put aside their past grudges and completely 'cleanse' my Yunluan Sword!"

"Cui Chan, prepare to die!"

After saying that, Cui Chan looked at Song Fanjing holding the sword in the mud, took a deep breath, uttered a "uh", and blood flowed from his mouth and nose. Immediately————

Detonating the Yuandan, with a 'bang' the heart meridian exploded, causing the mind to self-extinguish and commit suicide!

A moment of time,
This caused Yun Luan to be stunned!

This also made Song Yuan stunned for a moment.

then
Song Fanjing stabbed him down from the clouds with a sword, leaving a bloody hole in his shoulder and neck, and he went completely crazy:

"Cui Chan, what are you talking about, you.!"

Just as the words fell,

Cui Chan's 'Yuan Dan' aura had disappeared after he died suddenly in the cemetery at the back mountain.

Song Fanjing looked at Song Yuan coldly, with the corners of his lips curled slightly:
"Father,"

"So, you have come to this day too."

She just wanted to take action.

but.
The young man who walked out slowly from the 'Sword Master Hall' stopped Song Fanjing's actions.

Ji Xia looked at the struggling Song Yuan and smiled:
"How can I allow you to bear the charge of 'patricide'?"

"Brahma mirror, Brahma mirror, life is spotless, body is like glass."

"I told you I would teach you to be upright."

"After today, at least"

"The injustices that once existed no longer exist."

"As for this sword,"

"Then call me to come,"

"Cut it out for you!"
