Long Sorrow Song - C62
The more afraid a person was of death, the closer he would be to death. On the other hand, those who felt that they were in a dangerous place and that they had no chance of survival tended to meet their doom and turn the tables. Such was the fate that awaited them.
There was an extremely long altar table in the large hall, and it was filled with portraits of people. In front of the altar was a smaller altar table filled with fruit, pastries, and beef and mutton. In front of the table stood a man dressed in a nine chapter imperial robe with a jade crown on his head. The man was around forty years old and had a handsome face. His face was fair and it wasn’t hard to tell that he was someone who lived like a prince. This man’s imposing figure, under the decorations of his luxurious clothing, appeared very serious, causing people to feel intimidated upon seeing him.
After the man with the jade crown paid his respects to the deity statue, three people stood respectfully behind him. The three of them stood in a row, with a woman in front of them. It was Gongsun Yuxia.
“Have you brought Ye Mo back?” The man with the jade crown faced the statue, his tone was polite to others, but it seemed like he was giving orders.
Gongsun Yu Xia laughed: “That reckless person actually killed Zhao Chong Li. That’s good too, no matter what he did to us, it was all for our own gain.”
“Find someone to treat his injury.”
“Brother.” “” Gongsun Yuxia was puzzled. ” It’s fine if you don’t want me to kill him, but you still want me to save him? ”
“A cold leaf cannot die. We have already offended the Jade Pavilion, they will not let this go easily. As long as Ye Mo Han lives, we have a trump card in our hands. In the martial world, only Ye Wen Han would dare to openly fight against a Jade Pavilion. ” This man was Gongsun Yuxia’s older brother, Gongsun Chun Qiu. He had been respected by the people of the martial arts world for abiding by etiquette and acting impartially.
“Little sister understands.”
“The Kongtong Sect is currently without a leader, but the Red Peak is still there. Don’t try to win them over yourself, just send two of your trusted aides.” Gongsun Chun Qiu changed the topic. “How is the situation outside?”
Gongsun Yu Xia’s left rear said, “The Sect Leader, Sun Mubai, visited Shaolin. He stayed in Shaolin for five days, probably to discuss the capture of Chi Feng and Ye Peihan. The Sect Leader of the Hua Shan Sect didn’t say anything about Ye Mo Han being the pavilion master of the Emerald Jade Pavilion. On the other hand, Mo Xi Yan, the young miss of the Mo family, openly questioned the rumours in the martial arts world, proving that Ye Mo Han was not the pavilion master of the Emerald Jade Pavilion. ”
Gongsun Chun Qiu frowned slightly and said, “Mo Xi Yan, is that the only daughter of Mo Yunfan who wanted to elope with Righteous Wind when she was 14 years old?”
“Yes.” “Yes, sir,” replied the man at the back right of Gongsun Yuxia. This girl must have fallen for Ye Mo Han. ”
Gongsun Chun Qiu heaved a long sigh, and said bitterly: “The world is going down, and people’s hearts are not as ancient as they used to be. How can a girl’s house be so casual? Mo Yunfan, Mo Yunfan, you really don’t know how to discipline your daughter. ”
There was a long silence. For Gongsun Chun Qiu, his subordinates could only speak when he asked. At other times, they had to shut up. Gongsun Yuxia was no exception.
Gongsun Chun Qiu heaved another sigh of relief and waved his hand towards the back. The two people behind Gongsun Yuxia saluted and left. Gongsun Yuxia stood at her original position, wanting to say something but not daring to.
“What else do you want?” Gongsun Chun Qiu turned around and said as he stared at Gongsun Yu Xia.
Tears welled up in Gongsun Yuxia’s eyes. “Uncle Dan is dead. I’ve already gotten my hands on the Hornless Pan. It’s about time for you to fulfill your promise, isn’t it?”
It could be seen that Gongsun Yuxia was very upset. Her words were practically begging Gongsun Chun Qiu.
Gongsun Chun Qiu’s face darkened as he reprimanded Gongsun Yu Xia harshly: “If the children of Gongsun family care about their relationship as much as you do, how can my Gongsun family survive in the martial arts world for hundreds of years without falling? Right now, the situation is very complicated. It’s already good enough for us to be able to protect ourselves, but you still want to live a comfortable life? ”
Gongsun Yuxia kneeled down. At this time, she was like a completely different person from when Ye Mo first saw her. She cried out, “Brother, I’m just a woman, I just want to live the life of a couple. I’m not interested in your ambitions, so I beg you to let him go, I will live a hidden life with him and not lose face for our Gongsun family.”
With a “pa” sound, Gongsun Yuxia was knocked down to the ground. On her left cheek, five finger prints had been left, showing a deep red.
“Don’t mention it to me if you don’t want him to die.”
Gongsun Chun Qiu walked out of the sacrificial hall, leaving only Gongsun Yu and Xia behind. If he were to turn around now, he would definitely be able to see the hatred and rage in Gongsun Yuxia’s eyes. That hatred was mixed with helplessness. This anger was also as though it wanted to burn down the lives of those who went against it.
An external force surged into his body, as if a warm current was flowing through his internal organs. The pain gradually faded from his dazed state, making him feel an indescribable pleasure. Although the external force was strong, it was still gentle. When it flowed through the various acupoints on Ye Mo Han’s body, the external force suddenly disappeared. The pain came immediately, and Ye Mo Han wanted to open his eyes, but his eyes were as heavy as a mountain, he could not obey. Ye Mo used all of his strength to control his eyes. The pain from all the major acupuncture points in his body seemed to have received some sort of command, as they responded to each other in the distance, acting furtive. Ye Mo Han let himself sober up trying hard, was instantly defeated by the pain in his body. As his thoughts spun, Liu Yiyi’s figure appeared in his mind. He nestled with her at the foot of the mountain, leisurely watching the birds fly in the blue sky, blooming and falling. Mo Xi Yan suddenly appeared again with a sharp sword in her hand. She stabbed Liu Yiyi to death with a sword in her chest. Ye Mo was furious. He raised his palm and Mo Xi gently flew forty to fifty feet away, a satisfied smile hanging on her lips even as she was about to die. Ye Wen’s body felt cold like it had just reached the truth realm. He looked around in a daze, but then suddenly lost consciousness and became unconscious again.
After an unknown amount of time had passed, Ye Mo Han was once again dazed as he felt someone healing him. Ye Mo Han knew that this person had used his own Qi to repair his damaged meridians and meridians, and once Ye Mo Han stopped using his Qi, he would not be able to stay conscious for long. After repeating this four times, Ye Han was finally able to open his eyes and wake up.
The room reflected in the lids was well furnished, and the colors were all white. This white did not cause any discomfort to the sheets, but instead made them feel very comfortable. All of this seemed very simple, and simple was exactly what Ye Mo Han had always liked.
The door was pushed open and a person walked in. He was wearing a clean white robe. Every single step this person took seemed to be pondering the method of landing and the position of his feet, as though he was afraid that the previous step wouldn’t be perfect. Thus, from the looks of it, he seemed to be exceptionally cautious.
“Gongsun Chun Qiu?” Ye Han remembered that he had been captured by Gongsun Yuxia. Gongsun Chun Qiu was her brother, and was praised as the most virtuous person in the world. Normally, this kind of person would care more about their appearance and behavior.
“That’s me.” “Yes.” Gongsun Chun Qiu nodded slightly. Lord Ye is still in a serious condition. Is there anything wrong with his body now? ”
“Go ahead.” “Ye Wen laughed heartily.” If you don’t kill me, why did you bring me here to treat my injuries? ”
Gongsun Chun Qiu sat on a round stool in his room and dusted himself off. He raised his head to look at Ye Wen and said, “Naturally, we are going to use Lord Ye to restrain the Emerald Jade Pavilion.”
Ye Mo Han could only smile bitterly. Besides the Jade Pavilion killing people in his name, everyone else in the world had long assumed that they were the leaders of the Jade Pavilion. Those who knew the truth were all related to the Jade Pavilion. If he wanted these people to prove that he had nothing to do with the Jade Pavilion, then he would only end up being a laughingstock. However, if Gongsun Chun Qiu could prove that Ye Mo Han was not the pavilion master of the Emerald Jade Pavilion, the effects would naturally be different. After all, he was the most respected person in the world. But when Ye Jianhan thought of how he had used despicable methods to steal the Pan Hornbeam, he felt even more contemptuous of him. Gongsun Chunqiu was just a hypocrite wearing a noble appearance to deceive others.
“With the Hornless Pan in your hands, after you have mastered the Demonic God Art, are you still afraid of a mere jade pavilion?” Ye Wen asked coldly.
“The most terrifying thing about the pavilion master of the Emerald Jade Pavilion is not his martial arts, but the Jade Pavilion he heads.” Gongsun Chun Qiu heaved a long sigh. The Emerald Jade Pavilion will make all your close friends and relatives become your enemies, and you will face enemies from all sides. As long as it exists, I will not be able to sleep or eat. My cooperation with them was just a stopgap. I just want to wait for someone like you who can fight against him in public. ”
Gongsun Chun Qiu looked at Ye Mo Han without a word, and continued: “If you and I work together, we will eliminate the Emerald Pavilion, and then we will publicly chase away the deer from the Central Plains. No matter who wins, it would be better than the existence of those maggots from the Emerald Pavilion.”
Ye Mo Han sneered in his heart. Almost everyone he had met, including Chi Feng, were thinking about how to make the world their own, and how to control the life and death of others.
Power, how tempting was that? It could even make heroes flock to it since the ancient times?
