Chapter 949

Shushan Sect Leader Wei Tianhai stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at Li Xuan.

He had an aged appearance, a cold expression, and his eyes were as heavy as frost and snow.

It could be seen that his Daoist robe trembled with the wind, as if his heart could not remain steady amidst the knife-like pain.

Wei Tianhai had long since raised Li Xuan as his own foster son.

Yet Li Xuan was willing to abolish his own cultivation and quit Shushan.

For Wei Tianhai, every word in Li Xuan's speech was like a sword piercing his heart.

But as the Sect Leader, he could not show the slightest bit of emotion.

It could be seen that his face was calm, and all the emotions in his eyes had turned into ruthlessness.

He could not make an exception.

Otherwise, if this gap were opened, the faith of the thousands of Shushan disciples in the future would no longer be pure.

The Shushan Sword Sect was not a simple sect, but a sword sect that maintained the balance between humans and demons, and was the protector of the entire human race.

With this heaven-filling responsibility falling on his shoulders, Wei Tianhai had to act with the big picture in mind.

"Xuan'er."

"Humans and demons are on different paths."

"Turn back now, kill those two demon monsters behind you, and it is not too late."

It could be seen that he said indifferently.

"In this way."

"Your master... can just abolish your cultivation and then expel you from the sect, without killing you."

His tone was ruthless.

The several elders on the side were also selfless and nodded secretly.

Once these words were spoken, the kneeling Li Xuan's eyes narrowed.

His eyes were complex, and a bit of emptiness emerged within them.

He did not expect that his master would be so indifferent.

His own wife and daughter, two living people, were like two wild dogs in his eyes.

Li Xuan slowly stood up and turned to look back at his wife and daughter.

The girl he dreamed of day and night and loved deeply was right behind him.

Back then, although she was the daughter of the Demon Monarch, she risked being killed by him to come and get to know him; what kind of bravery was this.

She even dared to bring their daughter and follow him back to Shushan, facing thousands of sword disciples without fear of death; this was even more true and sincere.

Over the years, her kindness in healing mortals and soothing people's injuries down the mountain could not have been faked either.

"Li Xuan, what are you still hesitating about?" An elder noticed that something was wrong and reprimanded him.

"Senior brother, hurry up and kill the demon to redeem your great sin!" A disciple said loudly, advising the senior brother.

The words of the people around were ignored by Li Xuan and cast to the back of his mind.

At this moment, in his heart, there was only his own thinking.

Li Xuan looked around, and his faint gaze gradually became firm.

Humans and demons are on different paths?

But among humans, there are also bad ones.

Among the demon race, there are also good ones.

How can one use such a simple judgment to deprive them of their lives?

At this moment, in Li Xuan's heart, he began to doubt the teachings and etiquette of the Shushan Sword Sect over the years.

This doubt was a gap that shook his blind faith in this place.

The old thinking that had bound him to the Shushan Sword Sect also broke free from the constraints of etiquette and became free.

Wei Tianhai saw Li Xuan's eyes and knew the result.

He could not bear it in his heart, but he had to give the order.

It could be seen that his face was cold, and he shouted loudly.

"Li Xuan has fallen into the devil's path; there is no need to persuade him anymore."

"All disciples of the sect, kill!"

With Wei Tianhai's order, all the disciples drew their swords!

Countless flying swords and sword Qi transformed into a heaven-filling array, surrounding Li Xuan, and in an instant, they could strangle him, along with his wife and daughter!

"Senior brother, you..." Xiang Wuhui's face was slightly shocked, and he looked at Wei Tianhai abruptly, a bit of complexity emerging in his eyes.

Several elders saw this scene and couldn't help but be stunned.

They didn't expect that the Sect Leader would be so decisive in taking action!

Although the elders' words were fierce and ruthless, they were actually softer-hearted; after all, they had also watched Li Xuan grow up.

Now, there was no turning back.

They had no choice but to take action, urge their sword techniques, fly away, and join the disciples on the mountain to slay this senior disciple.

Looking at the heaven-filling gorgeous sword Qi, Li Xuan's eyes were calm.

He turned into a clear breeze, stepped back, came to his wife's side, and hugged her into his arms.

The demon girl Liu Die'er had a fierce gaze.

Since she dared to come up the mountain, it meant she had long known that this might be the outcome.

Li Xuan had no sword in his hand, nor did he have a sword on his back.

To show his sincerity, he did not bring a sword up the mountain.

Before coming up the mountain, he had originally thought that if he couldn't leave the sect, it wouldn't matter if he died here with his wife and daughter, as he could repay his master's kindness in raising him.

But now, his thoughts had changed.

All the flowery language and all the debts of gratitude and hatred were tools that bound people's hearts.

A person's life only needs to rely on their own heart!

Whether the result is good or bad, it doesn't matter!

"Daddy... Yinyin doesn't want to die..."

Li Xuan's daughter said with a sad face and a crying voice.

She was clutching her mother's hem tightly.

"Mom, hurry up and turn into a butterfly to take little Yinyin away."

She was only one or two years old, with big eyes that were crystal clear and red. Her chubby arms were as delicate as lotus roots.
