Chapter 64.2 Revenge Settled (part 2)
Yan Luo murmured, “What is there to end?”
There’s nothing left.
Just like he couldn’t remember how many years ago, he lost everything. Only this time, he would never meet a child in white clothes who looked up at the sky in the depths of the cave and also looked up at him, bringing him hope of revival.
Did he regret it?
Yan Luo couldn’t understand, could it be that he regretted it?
The sky was still clear, and the snow fell like scattered flowers. No matter how many thousands of years had passed, the cycle of spring and autumn remained the same, and the changes of the world did not pity the sentimental world.
A line of black blood suddenly overflowed from the corner of Yan Luo’s mouth.
“——Yan Luo!!”
Chu Yan’s expression changed abruptly, and the long sword in his hand shot out like a dragon going out to sea, and in a flash, it pierced into Yan Luo’s mouth, and the blood gushed out, prying open his teeth. “It’s too late…” Yan Luo laughed softly, and more and more blood came out of his mouth, “I have already… taken poison…”
“You!” Xuan Hong went deeper.
But Yan Luo bit the tip of the sword and laughed even more crazily, “…I didn’t…lose…!”
He laughed so hard that his shoulders were shaking, and his voice was hoarse and unpleasant, “The scriptures of the Wuxian Sect… have all been burned… you can’t find the antidote…”
Chu Yan’s face was pale, as if he had been struck by thunder. His body swayed, but he held on and didn’t fall.
Yan Luo grinned, his eyes were about to split, and he said word by word, “Chu Yan, I want… to see your desperation… under the Netherworld…!”
Before his words fell, he suddenly lunged forward!
With a hiss, Chu Yan didn’t have time to retract his sword, and Xuan Hong Sword, a rare weapon in the world, pierced through Yan Luo’s back of the head in an instant, cutting off his breath.
The gushing blood soaked Yan Luo’s robe.
The corpse fell straight forward, with a dull thud. Only then could they see that he was holding an embroidered sachet in his right hand, which was also gradually soaked in blood.
“Palace Master Chu!”
At this moment, the people behind him rushed up one after another, staring in shock at the scene before them.
Chu Yan staggered a few steps in a daze, panting heavily, and his hand holding Xuan Hong was shaking. A few breaths later, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and knelt on the ground in exhaustion.
He looked at Yan Luo’s corpse, and the blood on the ground was still spreading. His brain, which was already slow due to injuries, was blank, and he didn’t even know where he was or what he should do next.
Someone shouted in his ear, “The master of the Shuijing Tower is back!”
Shui Miao’er led a group of people rushing in. Just now, Chu Yan and others came to the Poison Insect Cave to kill Yan Luo, the sect leader of the Wuxian Sect, while she took some people to look for the scriptures in the library of the Wuxian Sect. However, at this moment, most of these people were empty-handed, and only three or five people were holding some scrolls and books with burnt edges, as if they had been snatched out of a fire.
Seeing this situation, many people secretly called out “it’s bad”, and some people couldn’t bear to look at the face of the Jiuzhong Palace Master anymore.
Chu Yan turned stiffly, his eyes were full of bloodshot, and his throat seemed to be blocked by blood, and he couldn’t speak for a while, just staring at Shui Miao’er, waiting for the final verdict.
“Miao’er…”
Xu Fangchuan’s voice was hoarse, and he was also looking at the woman in front of him.
In the solemn atmosphere, Shui Miao’er stepped forward gracefully.
She could see that Chu Yan’s mental state was close to complete collapse at this moment, and she first said, “Palace Master, don’t worry.”
“The poisonous books and prescriptions of the Wuxian Sect have indeed been burned nine out of ten. But the old man guarding the library begged for his life and revealed a secret known by the elders of the Wuxian Sect.”
“Three days later, on the night of the full moon, a strange flower will bloom on the southern slope of the Poison Insect Cave. This flower is a sacred object cultivated by the Wuxian Sect for many years, and when it blooms…it can detoxify all kinds of poisons.”
