Chapter 489: Chapter 276: Martial Emperor’s Disciple!? Earlier, Chu Qing was puzzled. If Guan Changying wanted to avenge Qi Luo, he had many opportunities.
He grew up in Taiheng Sect and is extremely familiar with every detail of it.
He possesses wisdom and skill, and over the years, it shouldn’t be difficult for him to secretly kill one or two people and falsely blame others, while keeping himself clean.
Why wait until Taiheng Sect is about to hold a sword ceremony for him, and entrust him with the duties of Sect Leader.
He suddenly took action and killed Zhao Qipeng?
Undoubtedly, this would create complications for the sword ceremony, and it could even be delayed or disrupted, resulting in him losing the position of Young Sect Leader.
At that time, Chu Qing and Lan Shuyi speculated that there might be some issue among the participants.
Now, they finally have an answer.
Qi Luo had not only one son, but two.
Guan Changying joined Taiheng Sect and became Li Junmo’s disciple, while Luo Wushuang apprenticed elsewhere, secretly plotting for years as well.
But regarding Guan Changying’s mentor, Chu Qing became curious.
Chu Huai Feng, who practiced [Cold Corpse Record], could be saved, and there was someone who practiced [Wood Corpse Technique], who was obedient to Luo Wushuang.
Could the mysterious figure mentioned by these people be Luo Wushuang’s mentor?
Curious, Chu Qing naturally did not hold back:
"Who is your mentor?"
Luo Wushuang glanced at Chu Qing and lightly shook his head:
"From the day I decided to avenge my father, I can no longer mention the name of my mentor.
"I am not his disciple, he is no longer my mentor.
"My actions have nothing to do with him."
As the words fell, a voice filled with anger was heard behind:
"How dare you! To deceive everyone in Taiheng Sect like this!
"You truly deserve death!!"
With the voice, the edge of a sword suddenly aimed at Luo Wushuang’s back.
But before it could reach, a humming sound was heard.
An invisible force swept across, and the long sword seemed to touch a mountain of gold and iron, suddenly twisting, skimming past Luo Wushuang’s back, about an inch away, pointing outward.
Luo Wushuang did not turn back, casually extended a hand.
With his fingertips, he grasped the sword edge, chuckled lightly:
"Elder Ge Hong, what are you doing? When did I ever deceive Taiheng Sect?"
Ge Hong’s pupils suddenly contracted.
This person’s martial arts skills were far beyond his expectations.
Earlier, the sword aimed at Luo Wushuang’s seemingly defenseless back, appearing to display a major flaw, but when the sword edge neared, it encountered immense resistance.
Further advancing, he felt a force steering it, involuntarily changing direction.
The direction was clearly under Luo Wushuang’s control. Otherwise, there was no reason it would be caught so perfectly by him.
As Luo Wushuang spoke, Ge Hong felt a tremendous force transmitting through the sword edge, sending him flying.
Initially, the Taiheng Sect elders were ready to confront Chu Qing, but at this moment, all their sword edges pointed at Luo Wushuang.
In Luo Wushuang’s eyes, a hint of sadness flashed, he sighed gently:
"Just a step away... I could have fulfilled my late father’s wish, but ultimately there was a mistake.
"Young Master, I don’t understand one thing.
"You are not one to meddle in others’ affairs. Logically, after Li Junmo’s death, Taiheng Sect was so biased and didn’t give you any chance to explain, harming those close to you.
"With your temperament, though you wouldn’t annihilate Taiheng Sect, you wouldn’t bother with Taiheng Sect’s matters either.
"So even if an assassin on the Evil Extermination List was missed, you had no reason to chase them to Sword Enlightenment Cliff at night, right?
"Do you hold some grievance with the Mirror of Sin?"
If it weren’t for this, Chu Qing wouldn’t have had the opportunity that night to discover ’Luo Wushuang’s’ corpse, nor seize the chance to replace it.
Although Luo Wushuang knew that disposing of that corpse properly was the best option that night.
The problem was, his ’mentor’ had just died that night, and he was in a hurry to deal with an unrelated corpse, no matter how it looked, his actions seemed very strange.
At that time, everyone in Taiheng Sect was watching him closely.
He couldn’t risk any rash moves.
Unexpectedly, what seemed like eternity within one night turned out so dramatically different.
Thinking back now, Chu Qing’s actions seemed strange as well.
At least Luo Wushuang couldn’t understand why he was obsessively pursuing those from the Mirror of Sin.
Chu Qing casually said:
"I have a friend who was pursued by the Mirror of Sin.
"I hold no goodwill towards these people. If I don’t see them, fine, but once I do, I naturally won’t let them go."
"These words sound half genuine, half fictional..."
Luo Wushuang sighed:
"However, getting such a response from Young Master is already sufficient."
"If it’s sufficient, then it’s time for you to pay the price."
An elderly voice echoed, a wave of sword intent surged to the sky.
He Jingming approached slowly, with each step stirring the flow of sword qi.
At the grand meeting in the past, he left traces of the move ’Bringing storms from both sleeves, slashing Cyan Mountain with one sword’, after forty years absent from the Martial World, such an appearance would undoubtedly be earth-shattering.
Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz!
The sound of sword ringing echoed everywhere, or perhaps this sword ringing originated from all directions.
Before Sword Pavilion, all Taiheng Sect disciples and even the wandering martial artists who came to observe the ceremony, their swords trembled continuously.
