Legend of Swordsman
4516 Suspicion
"Ah?"
The disciple who was in charge of guarding the Sect Master's Palace was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses. He smiled at Jian Wushuang apologetically and then turned around to enter the Sect Master's Palace.
Not long after, the disciple walked out and reminded in a low voice, "Wushuang, let's go in. Sect Master is inside, but he doesn't seem to be in a good mood. If you have any bad news, it's better to wait for a few days."
"I understand." Jian Wushuang smiled at him and then strode into the Sect Master's hall.
The Sect Master's main hall was dark all year round. Candle stands made of skulls emitted a faint light, adding a bit of gloominess to the originally dark main hall.
Jian Wushuang looked up and saw the God Refining Sect Master sitting on a big white chair. His head was tilted and his hands were clenched into fists. He leaned against his temples and his elbows were on the armrest. He looked tired.
It was obvious that Yan Dan's death had a certain impact on him.
"Sect Master." Jian Wushuang cupped his hands at him.
"Yes." Nodding his head, the God Refining Sect Master took a deep breath and sat up straight.
He was not in a hurry to ask Jian Wushuang what he had found in the Land of Gods. Instead, he said, "Wushuang, do you know that Yan Dan and Elder Shen Lian have already died?"
Hearing this, Jian Wushuang's heart skipped a beat. Fortunately, on the way back, he had already prepared his answers to various questions and unexpected situations. He immediately put on a surprised expression and said, "What? Elder Shen Lian had also fallen? Lord Sect Master, I only know about Yan Dan's death, but I didn't expect that Elder Shen Lian would also..."
"Yes, not long after Yan Dan's death, Elder Shen Lian also died."
The God Refining Sect Master nodded and squinted his eyes. His face suddenly became stern as he looked at Jian Wushuang and said, "Wushuang, according to the news from Elder Shen Lian's disciple, he said that after Yan Dan left the sect, Elder Shen Lian went to follow you and Yan Dan. I believe you should know how Yan Dan and Elder Shen Lian died, right?"
Hearing this, Jian Wushuang was confused at first, then he pretended to be flustered and asked, "Lord Sect Master, you don't think that Elder Shen Lian's death is related to me, do you?"
The God Refining Sect Master did not answer Jian Wushuang's question directly. Instead, he said, "Wushuang, I think you should give me an explanation. Why did everyone else die in the Land of Gods while you came back safe and sound? I remember that there were many people with cultivation much higher than yours in the Land of Gods. Tell me about the oddness in this."
Hearing this, Jian Wushuang looked like he was in a dilemma. He seemed to be hesitating whether he should say it or not. After a long while, he finally made a decision and said, "Sect Master, I did kill Yan Dan! It's not my fault, but Yan Dan was bullying me. We had just entered the Land of Gods and he wanted to kill me. In order to save my life, I had no choice but to kill him. As for how Elder Shen Lian died, this disciple truly has no idea."
"So you were the one who killed Yan Dan." The God Refining Sect Master's eyes lit up, and a look of anger flashed across his face.
No matter how bad Yan Dan was, he was still a disciple that he had personally brought up. He had once determined that he would be the next Sect Master of the God Refining Sect.
Snorting coldly, the God Refining Sect Master asked again, "Wushuang, let's not talk about Elder Shen Lian for now. Let me ask you, why did the people from the other sects die? Don't tell me that they were all killed by the restriction."
Jian Wushuang had already prepared a countermeasure for this. He lowered his head and replied, "Sect Master, you may not know this, but when we first entered the Land of Gods, the Crimson Whale Gang sent a peerless expert. This person's cultivation base was at least Five Scar and above. Not only could he ignore the restrictions in the Land of Gods, but he also was unimpeded and even started a massacre inside..."
Jian Wushuang said slowly, pushing all the blame onto Supreme Bing Ye.
Now that Supreme Bing Ye was dead, there was naturally no evidence.
Furthermore, with a little investigation, they would be able to find out that Crimson Whale Gang had recently sent a top-tier expert.
When Crimson Whale Gang went to the Land of Gods, they similarly created a huge commotion. All these could be investigated.
When he heard this, the God Refining Sect Master could not help but frown.
After that, the God Refining Sect Master asked Jian Wushuang how he had managed to escape.
Jian Wushuang also had a countermeasure for this. He took out the severely damaged Tarot divine corpse and explained that he had relied on the Tarot divine corpse to resist for a short amount of time before he escaped.
The God Refining Sect Master sensed the injuries on the corpse of the Supreme Tarot and discovered that the injuries still contained the terrifying divine power ripples left behind by Great Void Divine Emperor's attack. Instantly, he no longer doubted him.
"You may leave. I need to think about it."
After a while, the God Refining Sect Master waved his hand tiredly, indicating for Jian Wushuang to leave.
"Yes." Jian Wushuang took his leave respectfully.
The Sect Master's main hall fell silent once more.
...
In the dark Sect Master's main hall.
The God Refining Sect Master massaged his brows and looked into the distance. His eyes flashed with a look of deep thought.
He had sensed a strong divine power fluctuation from Jian Wushuang's divine corpse. The divine power fluctuation was not any weaker than his in the Void Universe. It was at least an Invincible Supreme in the Divine Power Universe.
Then, everything naturally made sense.
Elder Shen Lian had probably died at the hands of the Invincible Supreme in the Divine Power Universe.
"The Divine Power Universe has been infiltrating our Void Universe so frequently recently? I'm afraid that a great war is about to begin. I have to make plans for the God Refining Sect," he muttered to himself.
Once the war was about to start, he would be invited by Void God to go to the battlefield in the Void Forbidden Land and form an army to attack the Divine Power Universe.
No one could say for sure if he would be able to return.
"Before that, I have to decide on the next Sect Master."
The God Refining Sect Master's eyes flickered as he fell into deep thought.
After a long time, he finally sighed.
"Wushuang, huh?"
...
It was already dark when they returned to the limestone mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, Jian Wushuang met the enchanting woman, Jiu Sha.
She looked at the expressionless Jian Wushuang and opened her mouth slightly. She wanted to say something, but in the end, she sighed and lowered her head.
Jian Wushuang shook his head and did not intend to talk to her. He went straight into the seventh Corpse Cave at the top of the mountain.
He opened the magic barrier and sealed the entrance of the Corpse Cave. Then, he released the corpse of Supreme Tarot from the void. There was a flash of regret in his eyes.
In the next moment, Jian Wushuang sat down with his legs crossed. Divine power gushed out of his hand and poured into the corpse.
Instantly, the body of Supreme Tarot corpse that was like a tattered sack started to recover quickly.
