The martial spirit is burning.
Spiritual flames are like maggots in the tarsal bones.
Xiang An tried his best, but couldn't get rid of the spirit flames.
Therefore, he could only watch the martial soul he had cultivated so hard turn into ashes.
That is something more terrifying than killing a warrior.
The martial soul is engraved on the warrior's soul pillar and is the concrete expression of all the warrior's Taoist aggregates.
The martial spirit was destroyed, and the soul pillar was implicated and suffered irreversible damage.
A martial artist may fall into a bad state, or may find it difficult to practice from now on.
But this is only second. The most important thing is that after the martial soul is destroyed, it will no longer be possible to inscribe the martial soul on the soul pillar. In other words, from now on, the warrior will no longer be able to condense the martial soul.
This is an extremely terrible thing.
No matter how talented and evil the monk is, once he loses his martial soul, it will be difficult for him to exert his full combat power when facing enemies from the same realm.
This is equivalent to terminating his path of spiritual practice.
The viciousness of this move is tantamount to killing one's parents.
Xiang An spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.
At this moment, he could no longer say a word.
The fear in his eyes overshadowed everything else. He understood very well what it meant to lose the ability to practice in a place like Tianxuan Mountain.
The spiritual flames around Chu Qingxiao's body subsided, and his hand holding the Liaoyuan Sword loosened, and the Liaoyuan Sword flew aside to reveal his body.
When the disciples of Ganquan Peak saw this, their expressions changed and they looked horrified.
Xiang An is naturally an extremely powerful being in their hearts.
In terms of talent, there are few among the younger generation in Ganquanfeng who can match him.
In terms of chance, with two royal swords in hand, he is almost the first one under the holder of the divine sword.
In terms of authority, he is the eldest disciple of Zhou Sheng, the future peak master of Ganquan Peak, and he and Zhou Linger are childhood sweethearts.
Such a character was defeated at the hands of Chu Qingxiao, and his martial soul was destroyed.
The sharp weapon in Chu Qingxiao's hand that turned defeat into victory can actually take the form of a human.
Even the famous divine swords in Tianxuan Mountain are rarely able to achieve this.
How did Chu Qingxiao get the recognition of such a god?
Such thoughts appeared in everyone's minds.
Chu Qingxiao had no intention of understanding them. Instead, he raised his head and looked at Liaoyuan, who had turned into a human form, and said, "Thank you."
"Your Majesty has a destiny, and it is our duty to start a prairie fire." Liaoyuan responded respectfully.
Chu Qingxiao nodded and said, "Go ahead."
Liao Yuan held his hands and was about to leave, but suddenly seemed to sense something and turned his head to look at Meng Ziliang not far away.
But he found that Meng Ziliang was also playing with the red sword in his hand and looking at him with squinted eyes.
Liaoyuan was stunned for a moment, but he seemed to read some message from Meng Ziliang's eyes. He withdrew his gaze, and his figure and clothes were as if he had come, and he escaped into the sky.
After Liao Yuan left, everyone came back to their senses and focused their attention on Chu Qingxiao again.
Chu Qingxiao looked at Xiang An: "You said you didn't want to kill me, so I'll spare your life."
His tone was calm, almost cold.
Severe pain and phobia continued to tear Xiang An apart, but when he heard Chu Qingxiao's words, he raised his head, stared at Chu Qingxiao with vicious eyes, and said: "Chu Qingxiao, I don't need your mercy! "
"You destroyed my martial spirit! Then kill me too!"
"You let me live just to humiliate me! Just to prove that you are right!?"
Chu Qingxiao looked at the hysterical Xiang An with a complicated expression.
"Xiang An, I destroyed your martial spirit for your own good. You..."
"For my own good!?" Xiang An roared, interrupting Chu Qingxiao's words.
He endured the severe pain and stood up, with a ferocious look on his face.
"Chu Qingxiao, I won't give you the chance to humiliate me!"
After he said these words, he stretched out a hand, and the flying Dragon Sky Sword immediately flew into Xiang An's hand.
Xiang An, who was holding the Dragon Sky Sword, had a stern look on his face. At that time, he put the Dragon Sky Sword on his neck and was about to kill himself.
Chu Qingxiao was shocked when he saw this, and he quickly stepped forward to stop him.
But at this moment, a stone flew in from outside the courtyard gate, hitting Xiang An's wrist before Chu Qingxiao could.
Xiang An was in pain, and the Longxiao Sword in his hand fell out of his hand and fell to the ground with a clang.
This turn of events was beyond everyone's expectations, and everyone turned their heads to look in the direction of the courtyard gate.
I saw an old man in green clothes stepping in. He was thin and tall, with his hands behind his back and a stern look on his face.
His arrival caused the expressions of the Ganquan Peak disciples present to change. They quickly raised their hands and said, "I've seen the guard!"
Xiang Anye looked at the other party and said with a trembling voice: "Master...Master..."
The person who came was none other than the guard at Ganquan Peak, Zhou Sheng.
Chu Qingxiao and others also frowned and stared at Zhou Sheng warily.
Zhou Sheng said nothing and walked quickly to Xiang An.
Seeing his master, Xiang An felt so aggrieved that he almost lost control at that moment. He trembled and looked at Zhou Sheng who was walking in front of him. He opened his mouth and was about to say something.
Snapped!
The next moment, there was a crisp sound.
Under everyone's stunned gaze, Zhou Sheng raised his hand and slapped Xiang An hard on the face.
He seemed to be extremely angry, and the slap was very hard. With one slap, Xiang An's body was slapped heavily to the ground. At the same time, a mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth. The breath around him was so weak that he actually passed out.
This move shocked everyone, and the scene fell into dead silence for a time.
Only Zhou Sheng stood there, his chest rising and falling violently, gasping for air, as if the anger in his heart had not yet calmed down.
After a while, Zhou Sheng finally took a deep breath, retracted his raised hand, and then turned to look at Chu Qingxiao.
There was an apology on his face, and he said at that time: "Chu Siming, I already know everything about today's events. I was deceived by the scoundrels and mistakenly regarded Elder Tang and his party as traitors."
"Now that Lu Qi wakes up, the truth is revealed."
"This scoundrel actually wanted to kill someone and silence him. Fortunately, Chu Siming was there, so he didn't succeed."
"When something like this happened, it was really an old believer's incompetence, and it was also a shame to my Ganquan Peak Mountain Sect!"
Zhou Sheng said, the look of shame on his face became even stronger.
He looked faceless when facing Chu Qingxiao.
This was not the first time Chu Qingxiao had seen such a look in just two days.
Yesterday, when facing the White Hump Peak Master Fu Zhengliang, the Peak Master Fu also showed such an expression.
Chu Qingxiao secretly lamented that Tianxuan Mountain was indeed the number one sect in Great Xia. At least the face and acting skills of the peak masters guarding the peak were indeed the best in the world.
Chu Qingxiao would naturally not point out the other party's hypocrisy.
But at the same time, he didn't intend to let Zhou Sheng go just like that. He said with a cold face: "Zhou Zhenshou said it well."
"With the simple words that the disciples are incompetent, all the people in Chengjian's lineage who died in vain were wiped out in one stroke."
Chu Qingxiao's words can be said to get to the crux of the matter.
If this matter is just slander and slander, as long as Zhou Sheng is willing to admit it and have a more correct attitude, Chu Qingxiao will easily get a reputation as being unreasonable and unforgiving if he insists on it.
People in the world have always been so tolerant of the strong.
However, many disciples of Chengjian's lineage died due to Xiang An's torture to extract confessions, so this matter was not so easy to solve.
Zhou Sheng did pause for a moment, but soon he continued with a look of regret on his face: "The dead cannot be revived."
"But please rest assured, Chu Siming, and please..." Zhou Sheng said, looking at Zuo Zhuanxin and Lu Qi behind Chu Qingxiao, and then said: "Please also rest assured, the two younger generations, especially nephew Zuo Xian, I, Zhou Sheng, will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly and give you an explanation."
"I have just ordered people to bring Elder Tang out of the dungeon and arrange for the best doctors to treat him. I believe that he has his own destiny and will be fine."
Chu Qingxiao frowned and said in a deep voice: "It's not that I don't trust Zhou Zhenshou, but Zhou Zhenshou is Xiang An's master after all. Youdao is that once a teacher is always a father, I am worried that Zhou Zhenshou will be exposed when he investigates the case. I made a wrong judgment due to personal ties, so I think it would be safer to leave this matter to our Sky Patrol Division to investigate."
Chu Qingxiao spared Xiang An's life not only because of his personal relationship, but also because of Xiang An's weird martial spirit.
He vaguely felt that this martial spirit had some connection with Bai Tuofeng's God Transformation Pill, and he wanted to see if he could get some useful clues from Xiang An's mouth.
But Zhou Sheng obviously wanted to take Xiang An away from this place.
Chu Qingxiao naturally didn't want him to get his wish.
"Don't worry, Chu Siming. Zhou Sheng can guarantee in front of so many Tianxuan Mountain disciples that he will give you a reasonable explanation." Zhou Sheng continued, and at the end he added: "Besides, Elder Tang is now seriously injured. , someone still needs to take care of it, and it is not appropriate to take it away from Ganquan Peak. The Chengjian lineage is the biggest victim in this matter. We also need to obtain testimony from Elder Tang. If Chu Siming hears the case, Elder Tang will have to run around. , It’s really inappropriate, so if Chu Siming doesn’t believe me, during the interrogation, Chu Siming can send someone alive to supervise me. If there is anything wrong, I, Ganquan Feng, will fully cooperate.”
Zhou Sheng's words were a sign of weakness and giving up some of his rights, but they were also a threat. He clearly told Chu Qingxiao that Tang Zhengde was still in his hands, and if he didn't let him take Xiang An away, Tang Zhengde might become the next victim. .
Chu Qingxiao's face suddenly turned ugly. He turned his head and looked at Zuo Chuanxin and Lu Qi behind him.
Zuo Chuanxin showed a pleading look on his face: "Brother Chu, the master is old and can't stand the trouble. I want to go back to the mountain gate to take care of the master."
Zuo Chuanxin had deep feelings for Tang Zhengde and Chengjian, so he was naturally a little confused at this moment.
Lu Qi also said at this time: "Brother Chu, Master is fair. Since he promised you, he will definitely not break his promise. How about..."
Lu Qi is Zhou Sheng's disciple. Although he has not heard from Lu Qi about coming here, Chu Qingxiao vaguely knows that Lu Qi was rescued by Zhou Sheng back to Ganquan Peak, so he is grateful to Zhou Sheng. At this moment, he is also grateful. I want to plead for my master and save some face of Ganquanfeng, but I can't bear to see my master look so ugly.
Seeing the two of them acting like this, Chu Qingxiao frowned even deeper.
It is obviously possible for Zuo Chuanxin to ignore Tang Zhengde's life and death.
Lu Qi, on the other hand, was simple-minded and estimated that everything was done by Xiang An and had little to do with Zhou Sheng.
Convincing the two of them to change their minds was not an easy task.
But they happened to be key players in Xiang An's case.
Thinking of this, Chu Qingxiao's face darkened, and finally said: "Okay."
"Just follow the instructions of Zhou Guard!"
