Chapter 244 – Brother Qin Wuling
As the sun rose, Qiu Shuijing cautiously stepped out of Qingxu Temple, only to see the bustling city of Dongdu outside.
Last night, Dongdu was extremely lively. The saints of Yuan Dao Realm took action, and coupled with several major battles during the pursuit of Zuo Songyan and Qiu Shuijing, the city was in chaos.
But by the daytime, all the chaos from last night had disappeared. The streets and alleys were clean, and the bodies and bloodstains had been quietly and properly dealt with.
The people of Dongdu seemed accustomed to such battles, considering it was the capital of Yuanshuo. After all, who wouldn't die here someday?
Qiu Shuijing regained his composure and said to Zuo Songyan who walked out of Qingxu Temple with him, "Songyan, I will go to the palace to meet the emperor. I will have full power to implement reforms."
Zuo Songyan was stunned and asked, "Can you do it?"
Qiu Shuijing replied solemnly, "Xue Qingfu has fled, Wen Guanshan died in the palace, and the three ministers are all gone. Now the situation is in my hands, and the reform is inevitable!"
Zuo Songyan's expression also became serious, "As you know, the resistance is not from Xue Qingfu and Wen Guanshan, but from the powerful families. If you implement reforms, you will be against all the families in the world!"
Qiu Shuijing fell silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "You should go back to your hometown." He turned and walked towards the imperial city.
"Qiu Xiaoxue!"
Qiu Shuijing stopped and turned around.
Zuo Songyan bowed deeply, "If you encounter any misfortune, it means that your path is not feasible, and then I will go my own way! Take care!"
Qiu Shuijing also bowed deeply, "Zuo Xiaoxue, take care!" After speaking, he turned and left. n0velusB.c0m
On this day, many changes occurred in Dongdu. First, Saint Xue retired and disappeared. Then, Wen Guanshan, the Prime Minister, passed away due to old age, and the whole country mourned.
Wen Guanshan, one of the four great legends of Yuanshuo, a veteran of three dynasties, worked hard and died in office, which was regrettable.
Emperor Di Ping personally handled Wen Guanshan's funeral and posthumously named him the Wuping Duke.
After Wen Guanshan was buried, Qiu Shuijing submitted a memorial, saying that Saint Dao and Holy Buddha were too old to stay in Dongdu and should go to Lingnan to make contributions.
"Lingnan Jiehui Factory still has the position of factory superintendent vacant." Qiu Shuijing said.
The whole court was in an uproar, and Emperor Di Ping refused.
The next day, Dao Saint submitted a memorial, saying that he was too old and willing to go to Lingnan to build the Jiehui Factory and contribute his remaining energy. Holy Buddha also came to present a memorial, saying that he had been injured too many times in his early years, and now that he was old, he was ill and the weather in Lingnan was hot, and there was Jiehui to keep warm.
The civil and military officials were puzzled and didn't know what was going on.
Emperor Di Ping still refused.
Qiu Shuijing submitted another memorial, and Emperor Di Ping finally agreed to let Dao Saint and Holy Buddha go to Lingnan to dig Jiehui.
"When did sending someone to dig Jiehui become a good job?" The officials discussed and were confused.
On the third day, Su Yun came after hearing the news to bid farewell to Dao Saint and Holy Buddha. They were not too bad to him, and being exiled to Lingnan to dig Jiehui this time was really unexpected.
But when he saw Hua Hu, Qing Qiuyue, Hu Buping, and others, he was even more surprised.
"Sister Xiaoyao was here before!"
Qing Qiuyue whispered to him, "But Zuo Prefect has returned to his hometown, and she and Doctor Dong followed him back."
Su Yun chatted with them for a while and said to Dao Saint and Holy Buddha, "Being exiled to Lingnan may not be a bad thing..."
Dao Saint and Holy Buddha looked at each other and Dao Saint smiled, "Of course it's not a bad thing. Qiu Shuijing is protecting us. If we stay in Dongdu, Emperor Di Ping will definitely come after us and kill us while we're injured."Holy Buddha Dao: "Qiu Yushi has a compassionate heart. He submitted two memorials and had us exiled to Lingnan to dig for ashes. It seems like he became arrogant after gaining power, but in reality, he couldn't bear to see us die."
Dao Saint's expression darkened as he sighed, "He protected us twice, and we submitted another memorial, but His Majesty still refuses to let us go. This current emperor..."
He shook his head and turned to Su Yun, "The current emperor lacks benevolence and righteousness. Mr. Shuijing protected us and exiled us to Lingnan, but we are worried if he will have the chance to do the same in the future."
Su Yun's heart tightened, understanding what he meant.
Holy Buddha Dao said, "Lord Su, we were supposed to help solve your hidden troubles and suppress the demons in your childhood memories, but we are both injured and unable to do so. Please forgive us!"
He bowed with his hands clasped together.
Dao Saint leaned on his whisk and also bowed.
Su Yun hurriedly returned the gesture and said, "You don't have to do this. I will find a way myself."
"During these few days, Qing Qiuyue took care of the old monk and he likes her very much. So, I took the liberty of accepting her as a disciple."
Holy Buddha beckoned Qing Qiuyue over and said, "Lord Su, I will take her to Lingnan to train. Don't worry."
Su Yun was surprised and happy, "If Holy Buddha can teach her, it will be her good fortune. Just don't force her to become a nun."
Hu Buping looked stunned and watched Holy Buddha before looking at Dao Saint, feeling anxious, "What about me? What about me?"
Holy Buddha said, "You are just a layman. Farewell, Lord Su!"
Dao Saint beckoned Li Xiaofan over and said, "Lord Su is the deputy historian of the Inspectorate. You are responsible for foreign affairs, so go abroad as soon as possible and don't stay in the capital."
Holy Buddha added, "Lord Su, leave early, or else the demons in your memories..."
Dao Saint tugged at his sleeve, and Holy Buddha realized his mistake and quickly shut up. The four of them hurriedly left.
Su Yun watched them leave and patted Hu Buping's head, who looked a little lost. He smiled and said, "You are the smartest among the three of you. Why envy them?"
Hu Buping's face darkened, and he bitterly said, "I know I'm the dumbest..."
Su Yun was about to speak when he suddenly felt something and turned around to see Qiu Shuijing standing in the distance. He did not personally come to see off Dao Saint and Holy Buddha, probably to avoid suspicion and prevent Di Ping from holding a grudge.
"Wu Tong, you lost. Mr. Shuijing has not fallen to the dark side, his heart is still pure." Su Yun smiled, feeling relieved as if a stone had been lifted from his heart.
He was really worried that Qiu Shuijing would do anything to gain power. Qiu Shuijing's actions against Wen Guanshan and Xue Qingfu could be understood, but if he were to harm Dao Saint and Holy Buddha, it would be as Wu Tong said, falling to the dark side due to obsession.
But Qiu Shuijing still held onto his principles and did not compromise, which made him very relieved.
"Mr. Shuijing!"
Su Yun walked up and greeted Qiu Shuijing.
"Lord Su."
Qiu Shuijing returned the greeting and said, "Now that my path in court is unobstructed, I will promote reforms, reform the official system, education, promote new learning, encourage the transformation of old learning into new learning, redistribute wealth and land."
Su Yun frowned and probed, "Sir, isn't this a bit too fast? I thought Mr. Shuijing's reforms should take ten years, or even fifty years to implement. If you rush it all at once, I'm afraid..."
"There is no time, Lord Su! There is no time left!"Qiu Shuijing stopped and said seriously: "It has been thirty-five years since I went to study abroad, and I have wasted thirty-five years without achieving anything. However, the strong and enemy countries overseas have developed for thirty-five years! Yuan Shuo and others cannot wait any longer!"
He worriedly said: "When Yuan Shuo was defeated, the reason why the enemy countries such as Da Qin did not swallow Yuan Shuo was because Yuan Shuo still had a solid foundation and profound heritage. If they really fought, they couldn't hold on. So they only asked for land and compensation, and only asked for the opening of commercial ports. But these enemy countries have developed faster and faster, while our Yuan Shuo's court is still fighting over some trivial matters, delaying for thirty-five years!"
He sighed: "We can't wait any longer. When Cang Jiuhua came this time and colluded with Prime Minister Wen, our internal chaos in Yuan Shuo was caused by this. If we don't reform and progress, I'm afraid that the next time Da Qin comes, it will be a swallowing war."
Su Yun said: "But it's extremely dangerous!"
Qiu Shuijing looked at Su Yun and suddenly smiled: "Su scholar, as the inspectorate's minor historian, you should go to your post. There are scholars from our Yuan Shuo studying abroad in Da Qin, Da Wan, Anxi and other countries. You should also send a group of scholars to the Tian Dao Academy this time. Their safety overseas will depend on you!"
Su Yun's heart sank, knowing that he was worried that he would be implicated if he stayed in the capital.
Qiu Shuijing already had the idea of sacrificing himself for righteousness!
If the reform fails this time, he will die for it!
"Teacher, is Prime Minister Wen really dead?"
Su Yun changed the subject and asked: "I have a friend who really wants to know if Wen Guanshan really died in that battle that night. My friend said that Wen Guanshan is so smart and would not have been buried in the hands of Di Ping and you."
In his spiritual realm, Ying Ying fell on Su Yun's shoulder and listened nervously to the conversation outside.
"Did Ying Ying ask you to ask me?"
Qiu Shuijing thought for a moment and said: "I didn't see if Wen Guanshan really died. When I returned to the imperial city, the scars left by the battle in front of the Golden Luang Palace had been repaired and there were no traces left. But the emperor said that Wen Guanshan was dead."
Ying Ying felt lost.
"Leave the capital as soon as possible." Qiu Shuijing patted Su Yun's shoulder and left.
On the seventh day after Wen Guanshan was buried, Min Wanghai and other disciples of Wen Guanshan came to his tomb to pay their respects. They waited for a long time, but Wen Guanshan never crawled out of the grave.
Min Wanghai and others cried bitterly, worshipped a few times, burned some paper money, and left.
After they left, Su Yun came to Wen Guanshan's tomb, staring at it for a long time without saying a word.
At this time, a voice came from behind the tomb, laughing: "Does Master Su not believe that Wen Guanshan is dead?"
Su Yun's pupils shrank. He saw an old fox hobbling from behind the tomb, followed by a handsome young man.
Su Yun looked at the young man, who was very handsome and extraordinary, but there was a trace of demonic energy hidden between his eyebrows.
"I am the sage, Wen Guanshan."
The old fox laughed: "Master Su and I were stall neighbors in the ghost market. My booth was opposite yours. When Cen Shi led you into the ghost market, I talked to you."
Su Yun nodded and saluted: "So you were my stall neighbor."
The old fox smiled: "The young man beside me, Master Su should know him."
Su Yun looked at the young man and saw that he was handsome and extraordinary, but there was a trace of demonic energy hidden between his eyebrows.The young man's pupils were inverted, not human eyes, but rather harboring a demonic nature within.
"One hundred and fifty years ago, the Dragon fell from the Heavenly Market constellation, and the humans, demons, and true dragons fought a great battle, all perishing together."
Su Yun raised an eyebrow and said, "One hundred and fifty years later, the demons turned into Wu Tong, while the true dragon's spirit went missing after fighting me."
He looked deeply at the handsome young man and said, "It must be you. Wen Guanshan, the saint of warmth, died at the hands of the leader of the Ling Qiao School, but he was after all a saint of the miscellaneous family and preserved his own spirit. The dragon spirit is also a spirit and would be attracted to the Ghost Market, where he would meet his fellow merchants. One hundred and fifty years ago, the dragon spirit was half-parasitic on the body of the Ling Qiao School's Qin Wuling, and the bond he formed with Qin Wuling was not a good one, was it?"
The young man said, "At the last moment, he pulled the spirit of the humans and demons into his body, wanting me to perish with them. He broke his promise."
Su Yun said, "Qin Wuling's final blow did not kill Han Jun, and in the end, Han Jun emerged from the Dragon Tomb. Of the three people who buried the dragon back then, Han Jun turned into Xue Qingfu, Qin Wuling became the pen monster Dan Qing, and later killed Wen Guanshan..."
He looked at the old fox and said, "So the two of you hit it off and exchanged information with each other, setting up a trap for Qin Wuling."
The old fox smiled and nodded.
Su Yun said, "Did the two of you come to see me because you want to leave the Dragon Tomb's third person?"
Ying Ying's heart tightened.
The old fox smiled and said, "The dragon spirit helps me avenge, and the condition is to get the scholar Ying."
Su Yun looked at the young man and said, "Scholar Ying has nothing to do with your grudge with Qin Wuling. Why do you want to kill Scholar Ying?"
"He loves people, and people who love him must die."
The young man said indifferently, "This is the price of betrayal."
Su Yun sighed and looked at the old fox, then at the young man, and said with a smile, "Now, I'm a little worried that Qin Wuling might not be dead. How could the two of you possibly fight against Qin Wuling?"
He split open the tomb of the saint with a sword, dividing the tomb into two halves, and the coffin in the tomb was split open by the power of his sword!
There was only a jade pillow and a shroud in the coffin!
Wen Guanshan's corpse had disappeared!
The old fox and the young man rushed forward to check the tomb and their faces changed dramatically.
"Sure enough, the one who went to the palace that night was only a part of Qin Wuling's spirit! His main spirit was still hidden in Wen Guanshan's corpse!"
Su Yun laughed heartily and clapped his hands, "He was able to withstand the sword that Qu Yushi stabbed him with and lay there motionless, truly patient!"
The young man looked at him with killing intent, about to make a move, but suddenly showed a horrified expression on his face. He saw a huge shadow of an Azure Dragon behind Su Yun!
"Your opponent is not me, nor is it Ying Ying. Your opponent might be the real Qin Wuling!"
Su Yun turned around and left, raising his hand and waving at them with a smile, "Since Qin Wuling's spirit can split, did the Qin Wuling from one hundred and fifty years ago really die?"
The old fox and the young man were dumbfounded.
In the Ling Realm, Ying Ying was also stunned, suddenly realizing and asking, "Su Scholar, are you saying that Qin Wuling might not be dead? Is it true?"
"Of course not."
Su Yun left quickly, whispering, "If I don't say this, we'll probably all die here!"
Ying Ying still couldn't calm down, constantly asking, "Is there really no possibility of this? Is there really no possibility of this?"Translation:

Then, Wen Guanshan, the Prime Minister, passed away due to old age, and the whole country mourned. Wen Guanshan, one of the four great legends of Yuanshuo, a veteran of three dynasties, worked hard and died in office, which was regrettable. Emperor Di Ping personally handled Wen Guanshan's funeral and posthumously named him the Wuping Duke. After Wen Guanshan was buried, Qiu Shuijing submitted a memorial, saying that Saint Dao and Holy Buddha were too old to stay in Dongdu and should go to Lingnan to make contributions. "Lingnan Jiehui Factory still has the position of factory superintendent vacant." Qiu Shuijing said. The whole court was in an uproar, and Emperor Di Ping refused. The next day, Dao Saint submitted a memorial, saying that he was too old and willing to go to Lingnan to build the Jiehui Factory and contribute his remaining energy. Holy Buddha also came to present a memorial, saying that he had been injured too many times in his early years, and now that he was old, he was ill and the weather in Lingnan was hot, and there was Jiehui to keep warm. The civil and military officials were puzzled and didn't know what was going on. Emperor Di Ping still refused. Qiu Shuijing submitted another memorial, and Emperor Di Ping finally agreed to let Dao Saint and Holy Buddha go to Lingnan to dig Jiehui. "When did sending someone to dig Jiehui become a good job?" The officials discussed and were confused. On the third day, Su Yun came after hearing the news to bid farewell to Dao Saint and Holy Buddha. They were not too bad to him, and being exiled to Lingnan to dig Jiehui this time was really unexpected. But when he saw Hua Hu, Qing Qiuyue, Hu Buping, and others, he was even more surprised. "Sister Xiaoyao was here before!" Qing Qiuyue whispered to him, "But Zuo Prefect has returned to his hometown, and she and Doctor Dong followed him back." Su Yun chatted with them for a while and said to Dao Saint and Holy Buddha, "Being exiled to Lingnan may not be a bad thing..." Dao Saint and Holy Buddha looked at each other and Dao Saint smiled, "Of course it's not a bad thing. Qiu Shuijing is protecting us. If we stay in Dongdu, Emperor Di Ping will definitely come after us and kill us while we're injured."Holy Buddha Dao: "Qiu Yushi has a compassionate heart. He submitted two memorials and had us exiled to Lingnan to dig for ashes. It seems like he became arrogant after gaining power, but in reality, he couldn't bear to see us die." Dao Saint's expression darkened as he sighed, "He protected us twice, and we submitted another memorial, but His Majesty still refuses to let us go. This current emperor..." He shook his head and turned to Su Yun, "The current emperor lacks benevolence and righteousness. Mr. Shuijing protected us and exiled us to Lingnan, but we are worried if he will have the chance to do the same in the future." Su Yun's heart tightened, understanding what he meant. Holy Buddha Dao said, "Lord Su, we were supposed to help solve your hidden troubles and suppress the demons in your childhood memories, but we are both injured and unable to do so. Please forgive us!" He bowed with his hands clasped together. Dao Saint leaned on his whisk and also bowed. Su Yun hurriedly returned the gesture and said, "You don't have to do this. I will find a way myself." "During these few days, Qing Qiuyue took care of the old monk and he likes her very much. So, I took the liberty of accepting her as a disciple." Holy Buddha beckoned Qing Qiuyue over and said, "Lord Su, I will take her to Lingnan to train. Don't worry." Su Yun was surprised and happy, "If Holy Buddha can teach her, it will be her good fortune. Just don't force her to become a nun." Hu Buping looked stunned and watched Holy Buddha before looking at Dao Saint, feeling anxious, "What about me? What about me?" Holy Buddha said, "You are just a layman. Farewell, Lord Su!" Dao Saint beckoned Li Xiaofan over and said, "Lord Su is the deputy historian of the Inspectorate. You are responsible for foreign affairs, so go abroad as soon as possible and don't stay in the capital." Holy Buddha added, "Lord Su, leave early, or else the demons in your memories..." Dao Saint tugged at his sleeve, and Holy Buddha realized his mistake and quickly shut up. The four of them hurriedly left. Su Yun watched them leave and patted Hu Buping's head, who looked a little lost. He smiled and said, "You are the smartest among the three of you. Why envy them?" Hu Buping's face darkened, and he bitterly said, "I know I'm the dumbest..." Su Yun was about to speak when he suddenly felt something and turned around to see Qiu Shuijing standing in the distance. He did not personally come to see off Dao Saint and Holy Buddha, probably to avoid suspicion and prevent Di Ping from holding a grudge. "Wu Tong, you lost. Mr. Shuijing has not fallen to the dark side, his heart is still pure." Su Yun smiled, feeling relieved as if a stone had been lifted from his heart. He was really worried that Qiu Shuijing would do anything to gain power. Qiu Shuijing's actions against Wen Guanshan and Xue Qingfu could be understood, but if he were to harm Dao Saint and Holy Buddha, it would be as Wu Tong said, falling to the dark side due to obsession. But Qiu Shuijing still held onto his principles and did not compromise, which made him very relieved. "Mr. Shuijing!" Su Yun walked up and greeted Qiu Shuijing. "Lord Su." Qiu Shuijing returned the greeting and said, "Now that my path in court is unobstructed, I will promote reforms, reform the official system, education, promote new learning, encourage the transformation of old learning into new learning, redistribute wealth and land." Su Yun frowned and probed, "Sir, isn't this a bit too fast? I thought Mr. Shuijing's reforms should take ten years, or even fifty years to implement. If you rush it all at once, I'm afraid..." "There is no time, Lord Su! There is no time left!"Qiu Shuijing stopped and said seriously: "It has been thirty-five years since I went to study abroad, and I have wasted thirty-five years without achieving anything. However, the strong and enemy countries overseas have developed for thirty-five years! Yuan Shuo and others cannot wait any longer!" He worriedly said: "When Yuan Shuo was defeated, the reason why the enemy countries such as Da Qin did not swallow Yuan Shuo was because Yuan Shuo still had a solid foundation and profound heritage. If they really fought, they couldn't hold on. So they only asked for land and compensation, and only asked for the opening of commercial ports. But these enemy countries have developed faster and faster, while our Yuan Shuo's court is still fighting over some trivial matters, delaying for thirty-five years!" He sighed: "We can't wait any longer. When Cang Jiuhua came this time and colluded with Prime Minister Wen, our internal chaos in Yuan Shuo was caused by this. If we don't reform and progress, I'm afraid that the next time Da Qin comes, it will be a swallowing war." Su Yun said: "But it's extremely dangerous!" Qiu Shuijing looked at Su Yun and suddenly smiled: "Su scholar, as the inspectorate's minor historian, you should go to your post. There are scholars from our Yuan Shuo studying abroad in Da Qin, Da Wan, Anxi and other countries. You should also send a group of scholars to the Tian Dao Academy this time. Their safety overseas will depend on you!" Su Yun's heart sank, knowing that he was worried that he would be implicated if he stayed in the capital. Qiu Shuijing already had the idea of sacrificing himself for righteousness! If the reform fails this time, he will die for it! "Teacher, is Prime Minister Wen really dead?" Su Yun changed the subject and asked: "I have a friend who really wants to know if Wen Guanshan really died in that battle that night. My friend said that Wen Guanshan is so smart and would not have been buried in the hands of Di Ping and you." In his spiritual realm, Ying Ying fell on Su Yun's shoulder and listened nervously to the conversation outside. "Did Ying Ying ask you to ask me?" Qiu Shuijing thought for a moment and said: "I didn't see if Wen Guanshan really died. When I returned to the imperial city, the scars left by the battle in front of the Golden Luang Palace had been repaired and there were no traces left. But the emperor said that Wen Guanshan was dead." Ying Ying felt lost. "Leave the capital as soon as possible." Qiu Shuijing patted Su Yun's shoulder and left. On the seventh day after Wen Guanshan was buried, Min Wanghai and other disciples of Wen Guanshan came to his tomb to pay their respects. They waited for a long time, but Wen Guanshan never crawled out of the grave. Min Wanghai and others cried bitterly, worshipped a few times, burned some paper money, and left. After they left, Su Yun came to Wen Guanshan's tomb, staring at it for a long time without saying a word. At this time, a voice came from behind the tomb, laughing: "Does Master Su not believe that Wen Guanshan is dead?" Su Yun's pupils shrank. He saw an old fox hobbling from behind the tomb, followed by a handsome young man. Su Yun looked at the young man, who was very handsome and extraordinary, but there was a trace of demonic energy hidden between his eyebrows. "I am the sage, Wen Guanshan." The old fox laughed: "Master Su and I were stall neighbors in the ghost market. My booth was opposite yours. When Cen Shi led you into the ghost market, I talked to you." Su Yun nodded and saluted: "So you were my stall neighbor." The old fox smiled: "The young man beside me, Master Su should know him." Su Yun looked at the young man and saw that he was handsome and extraordinary, but there was a trace of demonic energy hidden between his eyebrows.The young man's pupils were inverted, not human eyes, but rather harboring a demonic nature within. "One hundred and fifty years ago, the Dragon fell from the Heavenly Market constellation, and the humans, demons, and true dragons fought a great battle, all perishing together." Su Yun raised an eyebrow and said, "One hundred and fifty years later, the demons turned into Wu Tong, while the true dragon's spirit went missing after fighting me." He looked deeply at the handsome young man and said, "It must be you. Wen Guanshan, the saint of warmth, died at the hands of the leader of the Ling Qiao School, but he was after all a saint of the miscellaneous family and preserved his own spirit. The dragon spirit is also a spirit and would be attracted to the Ghost Market, where he would meet his fellow merchants. One hundred and fifty years ago, the dragon spirit was half-parasitic on the body of the Ling Qiao School's Qin Wuling, and the bond he formed with Qin Wuling was not a good one, was it?" The young man said, "At the last moment, he pulled the spirit of the humans and demons into his body, wanting me to perish with them. He broke his promise." Su Yun said, "Qin Wuling's final blow did not kill Han Jun, and in the end, Han Jun emerged from the Dragon Tomb. Of the three people who buried the dragon back then, Han Jun turned into Xue Qingfu, Qin Wuling became the pen monster Dan Qing, and later killed Wen Guanshan..." He looked at the old fox and said, "So the two of you hit it off and exchanged information with each other, setting up a trap for Qin Wuling." The old fox smiled and nodded. Su Yun said, "Did the two of you come to see me because you want to leave the Dragon Tomb's third person?" Ying Ying's heart tightened. The old fox smiled and said, "The dragon spirit helps me avenge, and the condition is to get the scholar Ying." Su Yun looked at the young man and said, "Scholar Ying has nothing to do with your grudge with Qin Wuling. Why do you want to kill Scholar Ying?" "He loves people, and people who love him must die." The young man said indifferently, "This is the price of betrayal." Su Yun sighed and looked at the old fox, then at the young man, and said with a smile, "Now, I'm a little worried that Qin Wuling might not be dead. How could the two of you possibly fight against Qin Wuling?" He split open the tomb of the saint with a sword, dividing the tomb into two halves, and the coffin in the tomb was split open by the power of his sword! There was only a jade pillow and a shroud in the coffin! Wen Guanshan's corpse had disappeared! The old fox and the young man rushed forward to check the tomb and their faces changed dramatically. "Sure enough, the one who went to the palace that night was only a part of Qin Wuling's spirit! His main spirit was still hidden in Wen Guanshan's corpse!" Su Yun laughed heartily and clapped his hands, "He was able to withstand the sword that Qu Yushi stabbed him with and lay there motionless, truly patient!" The young man looked at him with killing intent, about to make a move, but suddenly showed a horrified expression on his face. He saw a huge shadow of an Azure Dragon behind Su Yun! "Your opponent is not me, nor is it Ying Ying. Your opponent might be the real Qin Wuling!" Su Yun turned around and left, raising his hand and waving at them with a smile, "Since Qin Wuling's spirit can split, did the Qin Wuling from one hundred and fifty years ago really die?" The old fox and the young man were dumbfounded. In the Ling Realm, Ying Ying was also stunned, suddenly realizing and asking, "Su Scholar, are you saying that Qin Wuling might not be dead? Is it true?" "Of course not." Su Yun left quickly, whispering, "If I don't say this, we'll probably all die here!" Ying Ying still couldn't calm down, constantly asking, "Is there really no possibility of this? Is there really no possibility of this?"Translation: Vote for monthly tickets, if not given, then anger, tremble, and chill~~
