Chapter 96 Because of you The magma under the seal was surging, and the whole hall was like in purgatory. Su Guang pinched Gu Changnian's neck with one hand and lifted him in the air, and inserted the other hand directly into Gu Changnian's chest. There was no hesitation in his movements, and his face did not change, as if he was taking out an object. He Qing behind her held her heart tightly. The feeling of emptiness in her sea of consciousness and dantian became stronger and stronger, making her feel a little exhausted. But she did not make a sound. She pursed her lips and took a long breath, not wanting to disturb Su Guang. The thunder from the sky was still striking down, accompanied by deafening thunder. The turtle beast's barrier was broken, and it could only reveal its original form from the palace bell. It blocked the hole with its carapace and let out an unbearable wail of pain. Occasionally, lightning flashed through the gaps, dyeing the fiery red in the hall into a pale white. He Qing saw calmness and composure on Su Guang's face, which was sometimes bright and sometimes dark. At this moment, the question he had been wondering about for a long time finally got an answer - The one chasing Su Guang was not a certain person or a certain force. But, it is the way of heaven. This belief that is immortal in the hearts of the monks actually exists... Su Guang broke his own forbidden spell, and with a slight raise of his hand, he set on fire all the preparations Chen Sanyi had made in the hall, and at the same time broke the seal in the forbidden area, but what followed was the coming of heavenly punishment. This is because Tiandao felt the power of Tracing Light and responded immediately.
However, Su Guang seemed to have prepared himself mentally. He threw out the palace bell to block the thunder, and then subdued Chen Sanyi who was still using Gu Changnian's body to make a dying struggle. With a "bang" sound, Chen Sanyi's almost transparent soul was pulled out of Gu Changnian's body by Su Guang and thrown aside limply, like a puddle of mud. Over the years, Chen Sanyi has been learning the art of controlling spirits through magic beasts, but he was unable to break the seal, so he used his own spirit to invade the bodies of magic beasts. He lost his own body and could only live on puppets. Su Guang shook off the blood and suspicious mucus on his hands, his expression indifferent. “Young Master…” Chen Sanyi curled up on the ground, begging for mercy in a cocoon-like voice: “Young Master, I am your supporter! If you can accept Qi Guanxiao’s surrender, so can I! I can do more for you. I can also help you control the monsters below!” Su Guang didn't even look at him, and walked slowly to He Qing, whose face was as pale as gold paper. He held her in his arms with one hand, and tucked her hair behind her ears while saying gently, "Master is always patient. Your sea of consciousness is almost broken, but you still don't say a word." He Qing ignored his teasing and squeezed out a sentence from between his clenched teeth: "I want his life." Su Guang glanced at her with dissatisfaction: "Oh, Master doesn't want my life?" "Master Heqing!" Chen Sanyi said anxiously, "This was not my idea! It was your disciple who asked for this. He came to me to set up this trap in order to get evidence that could prove Shaojun. Master Heqing, please spare my life. I will definitely be the best helper for you and Shaojun to achieve great things!" Su Guang looked at He Qing, not knowing whether she believed it or not. He only knew that she did not hesitate in her murderous intention. He raised his eyebrows slightly, waved his hand without looking back, and a black beam of light shot out, smashing Chen Sanyi's soul into pieces. The mud-like thing turned into a puddle of water, and dark blue "fireflies" rose up bit by bit, leaving only Chen Sanyi's resentment echoing in it. After making sure that Chen Sanyi would not cause any more trouble, He Qing could not help but groan, leaning into Su Guang's arms and panting, "Go quickly, you monster... can't take it anymore." "Leave?" Su Guang smiled, his smile was beautiful and warm. He said, "The last thing that Master promised me has not been completed. Should we continue the cooperation?" He Qing closed her eyes as if to escape, secretly cursing this guy for daring to flirt with her when he had a thunderbolt on his head. He was simply asking for his life. Then he said unhappily, "Don't try to implicate me. Leave quickly." Su Guang saw He Qing's patience and was about to speak again, but a hint of sinisterness suddenly appeared in his eyes. Then he hugged He Qing and turned his body sideways. The next moment, a whisk that was infused with magic power and turned into a sharp blade pierced Su Guang's heart. "You monster! Let go of my master!" It’s Gu Changnian! Without Chen Sanyi's control, his soul returned silently. Although he was seriously injured, the moment he found that Su Guang was hugging He Qing, he immediately used all his remaining strength and gave Su Guang a heavy blow. “Suguang!” He Qing realized what had happened belatedly, and without hesitation, he slapped Gu Changnian and pushed her back. He then hugged Suguang, who had put all his strength on her, and fell to the ground: “Suguang! Why didn’t you fight back?!” Su Guang leaned on He Qing's chest, closed his eyes and laughed softly twice: "Because, Master is afraid of death." "You..." He Qing couldn't understand. Su Guangming was clearly aware of Gu Changnian's actions, but chose to endure it instead of fighting back. He was worried that killing Gu Changnian would affect her...
Gu Changnian spat out blood and looked at He Qing's face in disbelief. That was the look he had only shown when facing him before, panic, heartache and pity... At this point, he could no longer deceive himself: Master was kept in the dark. The figure of Su Guang was clearly the man who met Master in Lu Li's room. Master had known about it for a long time... Gu Changnian looked at the two people hugging each other in despair, his eyes were red as if he was about to shed tears of blood. He murmured: "Master, are you going to abandon the Immortal Sect?" Although He Qing's cultivation gradually returned to his body because Gu Changnian's life crisis was resolved, it had not yet fully recovered. Although that palm was heavy, it was not fatal. But He Qing had no time to care about him at this time. Su Guang's magic power diminished, and the monster could no longer withstand the power of the thunder. It wailed and shrank into a small turtle, hiding back in the palace bell. The lightning struck directly at He Qing and Su Guang. He Qing hugged Su Guang tightly and mobilized all her skills to create a barrier, but it was shattered without a trace after less than two or three hits. She then consumed her strength again and again, breaking one barrier and creating another one. Gu Changnian watched He Qing spare no effort to protect the young master of the evil sect, and even when he was hit by a thunderbolt, he refused to let go. There was no light in his eyes anymore, as if he had lost six of his seven souls. Just when He Qing was about to run out of strength, a golden light rushed into the damaged hall, and a thick barrier popped up around He Qing, while an echoing bell sounded. Qi Guanrui arrived breathlessly and shouted at He Qing: "Go!" He Qing looked at him gratefully, then picked up Su Guang, used his almost drained sea of consciousness to perform the teleportation technique, and disappeared with him. (End of this chapter)
