So I Am A Demon Descendent! - Chapter 275
Chapter 275: Life’s Correct Paths Are Constantly Changing (2)
Everyone felt confused. No one could understand what Li Xianyu said, but one of them understood.
Second Child!
At the critical moment of the battle, Li Peiyun would not be interrupted by Li Xianyu’s roar, and he would not stop. After the sword of qi destroyed the Taoist sword, the Taoist Venerable found it difficult to resist as his passage of qi had been interrupted.
“Pfft!”
The blade of the sword of qi broke the Taoist robe and stabbed into Taoist Venerable’s chest. A shrill scream echoed.
“Taoist Venerable…”
“God, he killed Taoist Venerable.”
“Today this event must be recorded in history. We have witnessed the fall of the Taoist Venerable.”
The spectators were fired up, and there was a huge amount of discussion. In the hearts of all people, Taoist Venerable and Buddha Head were the two most important people in the demon descendants community, far higher than the seven families. Usually, when one person was praised by them, it was a great honor, which could be mentioned for several years after.
But now, the spiritual symbol of the leader of Taoism and the disciples of Taoism around the world, had his evil deeds uncovered at the Forum Conference of Lianghua Temple. Also, he would soon meet his maker.
The person who defeated Taoist Venerable was the descendant of the Demonic Priest in those days. Now, Li Peiyun was very popular. Today, Li Peiyun would become the most dazzling new star in the demon descendants community, and his reputation will spread to the demon descendants community of all countries in the world.
Amidst the crowd’s shocked voice, Li Peiyun’s face changed greatly. As they were too far away, the audience did not know the truth, but Li Peiyun heard clearly that the scream was not uttered by Taoist Venerable.
The screams came from his body.
Bang! The lotus crown exploded and his white hair flew about.
Taoist Venerable’s face was covered with ferocious and ugly blood vessels. His skin color changed slowly and became dark. This change of skin color had changed Taoist Venerable. His body was no longer thin, and his muscles were full and strong. It seemed that he was back to the peak of life, going back in time.
Ugly blood vessels crawled all over his body. Evil, dark, jealous… Like the darkest aggregation in the world.
Taoist Venerable had turned into a devil that destroyed the world. This opposition of thoughts sent chills down the audience’s spines.
“What’s the matter, Taoist Venerable…? What’s the matter with him?”
“Well, it’s terrible. When I look at it from afar, my legs are weak. What are these things?”
“Well… Why do the things on Taoist Venerable look so similar to the things on Li Xianyu’s left arm?”
“Taoist Venerable also has the ability to touch people to orgasm? I haven’t heard of it.”
“Ah!” Some people exclaimed. “The things on Li Xianyu’s left hand originated after he competed for the treasure of the Demonic Priest. If Taoist Venerable had…”
All the people in the room were not stupid. They immediately responded with strange looks. Everyone was aware of the fact that what Li Zhu said before was true!!
It was not stigma, it was not for an ulterior motive.
Was Demonic Priest innocent? Taoist Venerable really harmed his own comrades and plotted to seize the treasures in the Great Deities Palace…
Li Peiyun was frightened to find that sword of qi was stuck in Taoist Venerable’s chest and could not be retracted.
Why did Taoist Venerable have the treasure of Demonic Priest? Wasn’t that thing on Li Xianyu?
He didn’t understand. The changes in front of him made him a little unprepared. The surging power gave him a warning. The situation was out of his control, but the sword of qi could not be recovered.
“Wang Chen, Wang Chen…” Taoist Venerable roared angrily, “It’s all your fault, it’s all your fault.”
It was not clear whether it was Slime’s voice, or Taoist Venerable’s voice.
“Everyone deserves to die, everyone deserves to die.” Taoist Venerable’s eyes were red. He stared at Li Peiyun and said, “You must die, too.”
He stabbed Li Peiyun with a knife from his palm.
Pfft!
Blood ran through his chest, and blood gushed out under the high pressure of the blood vessels, splashing on Li Peiyun’s face.
At the critical moment, Li Zhu, who was aware of something wrong, rushed over and the old man recklessly blocked his great-grandson’s fatal blow.
“Grand Master!” Li Peiyun kicked Taoist Venerable in the chest and nailed him to the ruins together with the sword of qi. He held the old man’s haggard body and cried, “Grand Master, Grand Master…”
…
Bang!
The ring was blown to pieces and became a group of clear light, hanging in front of Li Xianyu. It slowly condensed into a young priest who was elegant and outstanding.
“Wang Chen…” Li Xianyu chuckled.
Hua Yang was full of energy and wanted to retreat with Li Xianyu. However, her body was imprisoned in the air by invisible force, unable to move at all.
Hearing Li Xianyu’s words, Thunderbolt Battle Lady, You Mengyu, and the others were scared silly, and their faces were as white as paper.
Demonic Priest, Wang Chen, the peak Gokudo Path expert that destroyed the demon descendants community back then.
Now, he had appeared in front of them… They knew that Li Xianyu’s ring had been imbued with his spirit. After that night’s possession by the Demonic Priest, Great-Grandma had explained to them.
Their opinions were the same as those of Great-Grandma. They all thought that Demonic Priest’s spirit was too dangerous. They suggested destroying it, but Li Xianyu was not willing to do so, no matter what.
As the leader of the harem, he took such a firm stand that even if the women did not want to do anything, they had no choice but to follow him.
“Demonic Priest!”
Great-Grandma raised her eyebrows, put a foot on the ground, and leapt straight into the sky.
In the face of Unparalleled War Spirit’s prestige, Demonic Priest ignored her. He gazed at Li Xianyu and said, “Help me!”
“Don’t help him!” Thunderbolt Battle Lady screamed.
“He wants to possess you, don’t agree to his request/” Hua Yang tried to resist the invisible shackles around her, frowning anxiously.
Cui Hua growled. As long as there was something abnormal in the Demonic Priest, it would be the first one to rush over and sacrifice herself.
Li Xianyu looked to Wang Chen as they looked at each other, silent. The past of the Demonic Priest reappeared in his mind. Sister Taisu and Little Sister’s smiles flashed past.
Li Xianyu exclaimed lightly, “Alright.”
Wang Chen smiled lightly. His body turned into a ray of light and entered Li Xianyu’s eyebrows.
Great-Grandma brushed against the spirit of the Demonic Priest. The momentum was not reduced as she was still flying high. Great-Grandma turned her head in anger. For the first time, she gave out a furious roar, “Li Xianyu!”
Demonic Priest was the enemy in her eyes. He wanted to take away her only great-grandson.
Li Xianyu closed his eyes and calmly let Demonic Priest’s spirit take over his body.
He just wanted to tell Taoist Venerable one thing: “If Heaven has feelings, Heaven too will become aged. Life’s correct paths are constantly changing.”
…
“Men don’t cry. Don’t cry. No backbone.” Li Zhu fell into Li Peiyun’s arms as tears of his great grandson rolled down his face, and the old man frowned.
Tears have always been a byword for the weak. It had no effect, except to let one realize one’s failures and weaknesses.
When the old man witnessed the tragic death of his companion and the slaughter of his family, he had drained all his tears.
“Come on, get out of here. You are not his match.” The old man sighed, and his body gradually became cold. “I haven’t been able to avenge everyone. Peiyun, the cause and effect between you and Priest Wang Chen has already happened.”
“It’s my life. I’m not willing to live any longer, no matter how it ends.”
“Go and hide abroad. Don’t come back. After all, there is justice in the world. Taoist Venerable will not get away scot-free. Buddha Head and Baoze’s boss will not let him have his way. The Taoists will not cover him. I’ll let them avenge me.”
“Second Child!”
Unfamiliar voice, familiar address.
The old man was stunned and looked up as hard as he could. He saw the face of Li Xianyu, but there was a familiar, bright and warm smile on his face.
“Priest… Wang Chen?”
“It’s me.”
There was silence for a few seconds. The old man, who hadn’t cried in a few decades, bawled his eyes out.
“I didn’t disappoint you, did I?”
“No.”
“Good, good…”The old man smiled like a child.
“Second Child, you are tired. Leave the rest to me.” Wang Chen stroked his head, just as he opened the heavenly gate for Second Child that year, leading him on the path of cultivation.
The immortal stroked my head and gave me longevity.
Feeling the warmth from his head, the old man closed his eyes. As he died, he shouted out the word he wanted to shout most in his life: “Teacher.”
He passed on.
Wang Chen grabbed Li Peiyun by the collar, threw him out, causing him to land just outside of the challenge arena. With a flick of his fingertip, Li Zhu’s body was set ablaze.
“Wang Chen, you are Wang Chen?” Taoist Venerable’s white hair was flying and his face was twisted.
“It’s me. I’m back.” Wang Chen reached out his hand, and the sword of qi broke away from the shackles of Taoist Venerable and returned to his palm. It made a buzzing joyful sound.
“I’m back to find you and settle an old score!” As he finished his words, he held the sword of qi high. Between Heaven and Earth, there was only a white light left.
“Run, run. What are you doing?” There was a roar from Taoist Venerable’s body.
However, Taoist Venerable stood still.
…
The night was heavy and the air smelt of scorching gunpowder.
Wang Qing held the bloody sword, shaking all over. The Japanese soldiers around kept shooting, killing the demon descendants who were not dead, and cutting off their last vitality.
“Wang Qing, you scum. Senior Wang Chen will not let you go.” Little Sister lay in the pool of blood, tears rolling, staring at him.
“I just want to live.” Wang Qing tied her up and sat her against the stone wall. Later, Japanese soldiers would take her away.
“Wang Qing, come here, this way!” Cao Jun, holding a long knife and covered in blood, waved to him from the deep end of the corridor.
Cao Jun held a struggling woman in her hand. The woman’s sinews and tendons were broken. Her struggle was powerless.
“Sister Taisu…” He was surprised and rushed over. “It’s really nice that you’re okay.”
Sister Taisu stopped struggling. Her hair was scattered, her eyes were hidden behind her hair, and she stared at him sadly and angrily.
His face was frozen. He was afraid of her look.
“That’s their granary. The Japanese haven’t found it yet.” Cao Jun pointed out from the bottom of the corridor.
Wang Qing was stunned.
“Let’s go there.” Cao Jun kicked him lightly and raised Sister Taisu’s hair, revealing her beautiful face. He said, “Look at your elder sister. I’ve never seen such beauty in my life.”
“What do you want to do?” he said.
“Look at her beauty. If she were to go to the Japanese military camp, would the Japanese let her go? While she is still clean, we will take her to the granary over there.” Cao Jun chuckled twice. “I can let you go first.”
Wang Qing grabbed Cao Jun’s collar and snapped. “You promised. As long as I work with you, you would let Sister Taisu go.”
“I promised, but the Japanese won’t.” Cao Jun said, “We are captives of the Japanese now. We work for them. Do you think we have the right to bargain with them?”
“Come on, look at this face,” Cao Jun patted Sister Taisu’s face. “Do you think the Japanese will let her go? If you snatch someone from them, you will die with the rest as well.”
“I don’t care. I’ll take her away. I’ll take her back to the mountain…”
Wang Qing was kicked against the wall by Cao Jun, as he spurted out a mouthful of blood.
“Are you stupid?” Cao Jun said in a low voice, “Take her back to the mountain, and let her announce to everyone that we have joined the Japanese army and betrayed our companions? You want to die, but I don’t want to die yet.”
Cao Jun spat on him. “Do you have the right to pretend to be a saint of love or a good man? From the moment you promised to work with me, you had no chance to turn back anymore. If this woman falls into Japanese hands, do you think you still have a chance? Don’t you like her? Don’t you hate her relationship with Wang Chen? Now, the opportunity is here. You want to pretend to be good with me?”
Wang Qing sat on the ground and looked at him stupidly.
Cao Jun took a deep breath and said in a low voice, “When we finish this, we will kill those villagers outside, and no one will know what we did. I am still the eldest young master of the Cao family, and you will still be a chivalrous disciple of Quanzhen Sect.”
“Are you serious about ruining your future for a woman?” Cao Jun dragged Sister Taisu inside. “Up to you. I won’t stand the ceremony.”
Wang Qing looked up. Sister Taisu struggled helplessly, turned her head, and looked at him sadly. That was the last miracle. She was waiting for Wang Qing to change his mind and return back to the right path.
Wang Qing looked down and felt that there was no look that was more blinding than hers.
He sat in a daze, only feeling that the world was collapsing and his life was at its most desperate time.
At this time, Cao Jun’s angry swearing came from the deep end of the corridor.
Wang Qing rushed into the granary, disregarding everything. He saw Sister Taisu lying on the grain bags, eyes wide open and staring at the ceiling.
“Fuck, I forgot to cripple her solar plexus,” Cao Jun said angrily. “She gathered her qi and killed herself.” He left, swearing.
Wang Qing, depressed, walked over to Sister Taisu. He knew that he would lose her forever. From now on, this face would only remain in his heart.
He held out his shaking hand and closed her eyes.
As soon as Cao Jun left the granary, he heard a heartbreaking cry. He frowned and spit in disdain. “Pfft, you won’t ever be great.”
…
The white light was all over the place. However much Slime roared, Taoist Venerable didn’t move. He closed his eyes and smiled at the corner of his mouth, relieved!
Boom!
Wherever the sword light passed, everything was annihilated into ashes. The collapsed grandstand was annihilated in the sword light. It was white and clean. There had never been such a bright sword light in the world.
September 12, 2020.
Taoist Venerable’s demise!
