Chapter 1409: The Anger of Qingsong

This meant that his son might have already left this mortal world, a fact he could not accept.

After a long while, he took out a Copper Mirror; this was the Xiantian Mirror, which contained a wisp of Zhou Xianzong's Soul Consciousness.

As long as one channeled Primordial Qi and wiped it across the Copper Mirror, one could know what happened to him before he died.

The figures of Chen Yu and Li Yunshan appeared in the mirror one after another, and he gritted his teeth: "Chen Yu... Li Yunshan, I will tear you into ten thousand pieces. I swear, I will make you vanish into thin air in this world..."

Standing up abruptly, Qingsong's face was already filled with killing intent.

Just at this moment, his confidants Yun Qing and Yun Zhitian walked over together; they had already sensed Qingsong's anger and heard the commotion here.

"Senior Brother Sect Master, what happened?" The two looked at the furious Qingsongzi, stunned for a moment.

"Xianzong... is gone." Qingsong released his Primordial Qi; now, with his hair disheveled, he looked like a madman, muttering: "He was murdered by someone. He was pierced through the heart by Li Yunshan's sword, cutting off all his life force. Now, he doesn't even have a chance at Reincarnation."

Qingsong looked up, facing the rain and mist scattering across the sky, and roared hoarsely: "Li Yunshan, Chen Yu... I and you are irreconcilable."

"Is Li Yunshan crazy?" Yun Qing was startled: "Senior Brother, he has the imprint of the Ancient Divine Script on him. How could he risk his life to kill Xianzong? This is impossible; there must be other reasons."

"Then is it possible that he has already shaken off the Mental Imprint?" Yun Zhitian pondered: "Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to risk such a great danger to break with the Sect Master."

"How is this possible?" Yun Qing's expression began to turn grave: "Senior Brother, your Ancient Divine Script imprint was deeply branded into his soul. How could he possibly shake it off? Could it be... he has already broken through?"

Thinking of this, the expressions of all three changed drastically; the three of them had stood on the same side during the struggle for the sect master position decades ago.

They knew full well what methods they had used to deal with Li Yunshan, and if Li Yunshan had truly broken through, it was not a good thing.

"No, he hasn't broken through yet, and the Mental Imprint hasn't been completely stripped away." Qingsong's eyes were slightly closed, his right hand's five fingers tapping incessantly; a moment later, he opened his eyes and said: "He has only temporarily shielded the Mental Imprint."

"It is good that he hasn't broken through." Hearing this, the two breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Yun Zhitian asked: "Since he hasn't broken through, he is still under our control. As long as the Divine Script Imprint on him reappears, we can directly erase his Soul Consciousness and make him disappear from this world."

"It is not that simple." Qingsong shook his head slightly and said: "Since he dared to risk such a great danger to break with me, it means he has already thought of a way to remove the Divine Script Imprint from his body."

"So it is fundamentally impossible for us to wait for the imprint to reappear. I am currently in seclusion, attempting to break through to the ninth level of the Taixuan Qingming Heart Technique, so I cannot interrupt it without cause. You two, immediately recall all our disciples who are outside, so as to prevent Li Yunshan from making a move."

"Senior Brother Sect Master, Li Yunshan is, after all, a personal disciple of the Yunlu Abode. Would he do such a deranged thing?" The two could not help but be startled; they found it hard to believe.

After all, the sect rules were there, and Li Yunshan was the personal disciple of the former sect master; could he really rebel?

"That is hard to say." Qingsong looked up and muttered: "There is nothing in this world that he, Li Yunshan, would not dare to do."

"Moreover, we locked him in that cave dwelling for over thirty years, and there is resentment in his heart. Now that he has a way to shake off our Mental Imprint, it means he is coming back to settle scores. We cannot underestimate the enemy."

"Understood." The two nodded with grave expressions; they also realized that this matter was likely not that simple.

"The two of you, I calculated the Heavenly Mystery and learned that our Yunlu Abode will have a huge upheaval recently. It is possible that Li Yunshan's return is the cause of our upheaval." Qingsong said solemnly: "So no matter what, we must hold this line."

"Senior Brother Sect Master, our Yunlu Abode is no longer what it used to be." Yun Qing said: "Even if he, Li Yunshan, can return, we do not fear him."

"Right, he is only one person; how could he shake our thousand-year heritage?" Yun Zhitian also felt that this matter was impossible.

"Then what if Dragon Breath is added to the mix?" Qingsong turned around and dropped this sentence.

"Dragon Breath..." The expressions of the two changed drastically. Yes, what if Dragon Breath was added?

Currently, their Yunlu Abode had already had very unpleasant dealings with Wang Zhongming, a high-level official of Dragon Breath.

Over these years, they had frequently interfered in Dragon Breath's affairs, and the two sides were almost at the point of a falling out. If Dragon Breath made a move at this time, they would definitely have no chance of winning.

"This is not very likely. We still maintain our previous relationship with Dragon Breath on the surface, and our status within Dragon Breath is also pivotal. Dragon Breath wouldn't deal with us in such a grand, public manner, would they?" Yun Zhitian asked.

"Right, I also think it is not very likely." Yun Qing said: "At most, it would be some secret support. After all, we still have to maintain our public relationship. Moreover, our Yunlu Abode is one of the Three Great Sects; even if Wang Zhongming is reckless, he cannot deal with us openly."

"He won't do it openly, but dealing with us in secret is enough to make us unable to cope. The strength of Dragon Breath is actually far greater than the Three Great Sects. What they show on the outside is only the tip of the iceberg. And because of Chen Yu, I feel that Dragon Breath dealing with us is only a matter of time."

Qingsong let out a heavy breath of turbid air and muttered: "So we must now find a way to prepare everything before the huge upheaval happens in the Yunlu Abode, otherwise..."

Qingsong stopped speaking there, but looking at his expression, one knew that if the matter were to erupt, it would definitely not be a good thing.

"Senior Brother, we understand." The two also realized the severity of the problem and bowed deeply: "Starting today, we will recall all Yunlu Abode disciples who are out training and maintain the Mountain Protection Array. Once Li Yunshan comes, we must capture him alive."

"I leave it to you two. However, as long as we hold on for some more time, once my strength breaks through to the ninth level, then we won't have to fear anything. But you must be clear, you must pay attention to one person..."

"Who?" The two asked.

"Chen Yu." Qingsong said through gritted teeth: "This person plays a very important role here, so we must pay attention to him, otherwise, the future troubles will be endless..."
