Chapter 858: Murderous Intent

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Xia Qiluo walked past the corpses.

The Cloud Breaking Sect had sacrificed everything to help her. She would not disappoint them.

Her mission was already engraved in her mind. She would complete it and use Liu Sanniang’s blood to pacify the souls of all the deceased.

Xia Qiluo put the black seed away and went down the mountain resolutely.

She did not know that after she left, the dead elders in the room slowly regained their breathing and opened their eyes.

Jin Chanzi said slowly, “You have to do what you have to do. Success or failure depends on this. Disperse.”

The eight elders and Jin Chanzi faked their deaths, while the other disciples were really dead.

Jin Chanzi stood up and slowly left. Looking at the rows of corpses lying quietly in the courtyard, he didn’t feel pity for them at all.

After Jin Chanzi left, Xu Yue asked impatiently, “Senior brother, what’s going on? Aren’t we dead?”

Xu Yue found it difficult to accept. He was prepared to die. That determination to die was real. For the sake of the righteous path, cultivators of the Mystic World should sacrifice themselves like this!

However, he had never thought that he would be able to come back to life after death. He had faked his death, but why?

Xu Yue’s eyes were filled with doubts.

Xu Bo frowned and pulled Xu Yue as they walked. “Let’s leave first. I’ll explain to you later. We don’t have much time left. We’ll talk on the way.”

Xu Qing also looked at his senior brother in confusion, waiting for an explanation. There must be something they did not know.

They felt extremely uncomfortable. They were prepared to die, but in the end, this seemed to be just a show.

Xu Ran’s expression was cold. “Let’s talk on the way.”

Xu Qing felt unprecedentedly distant from his senior brother. His expression was calm. “Then let’s talk on the way.”

He wanted to see what explanations they could come up with.

Among the eight people who didn’t die, the four elders all knew what was going on. They all seemed to be going to do something, but their junior brothers were kept in the dark. After dying, they came back to life. Even though they were experienced cultivators, they were still shocked.

While shocked, they were also confused and filled with doubts.

They originally thought that there was no secret between them and their senior brothers. However, this matter taught them that there was so much they didn’t know.

Outside the room, there were a few rows of corpses lying quietly on the ground. They were really dead.

Xu Qing recalled that when he was young, he and his senior brother were very close. They cultivated together and were brothers. They were so close to the point that they trusted each other with their lives. Jin Chanzi, who taught them, had said since they were young that they were two in one.

In the past few decades, Xu Qing had always been with Xu Ran. They had experienced several life-and-death situations together. There were no secrets between them.

Along the way, they had never hidden anything from each other, but this time, Xu Qing was kept in the dark. He was disappointed and at a loss.

Along the way, Xu Qing was waiting for Xu Ran to explain.

Seeing that Xu Ran was still not saying anything, Xu Qing stopped.

After walking for a while, Xu Ran realized that Xu Qing was not following him. He frowned, stopped, and turned around. “Why aren’t you following me? We have very important things to do. Whether we can succeed or not depends on this time. We can’t fail.”

Xu Qing’s expression was cold. “I don’t understand a word of what you’re saying. 1 don’t understand it, and I don’t care if it fails or not!”

Xu Ran frowned. “Junior brother, do we have to be so distant from each other? Our goal is to become an immortal. Why do you have to care about the process? As long as the process leads us to becoming immortal, the rest doesn’t matter.”

Xu Qing was still cold. “I want to become an immortal, but I don’t want to be kept in the dark, just like Qiluo.”

Xu Qing felt that it was a little ironic. He had always thought that Xia Qiluo was the chosen one and that Liu Sanniang was the thief who stole Xia Qiluo’s identity. But now, a terrifying doubt emerged in his mind.

Who was the chosen one and who was the real thief?

Xu Qing’s eyes revealed deep suspicion. He subconsciously took a step back. “Senior brother, are we righteous or evil?”

Xu Ran’s expression suddenly turned cold, and his tone was impatient. “Why are you questioning me at a time like this? Don’t you want to become an immortal? If you want to, no more asking. Come with me.”

Xu Qing resisted. He looked at Xu Ran. “Senior brother, do you know what you look like now?”

Xu Ran frowned. “I’m not telling you because it’s for your own good. Your indecision will ruin everything. Let’s go to that place first. At that time, I’ll tell you whatever you want to know.”

Xu Qing looked at Xu Ran warily. “When you set up the array to kill Huang Xianxian back then, you had this look on your face. Why do you have this look on your face now? I can’t trust you.”

When Xu Qing realized this, he was suddenly overwhelmed by a sense of fear. He immediately got on a horse and fled.

Xu Ran’s pupils constricted, and he instantly threw a copper coin at Xu Qing.

When the copper coin hit Xu Qing’s back, Xu Qing felt extreme pain in his internal organs. He whipped the horse fiercely. He thought that he would not be able to escape death, but he did not expect Xu Ran to let him go instead of chasing after him.

Xu Qing felt that his body was in so much pain that it was about to break apart.

He was in extreme pain. He did not understand why. They were brothers who had grown up together and lived together for decades.

Xu Qing’s vision became more and more blurry. Finally, he fell off the horse. In a blur, he saw a white figure walking towards him. That person was as dazzling as Buddha. He reached out his hand to him with an extremely warm smile..
