Just as He Qing guessed, Ye Cangyan had already found out what was happening outside Mount Yu in the past few days, so he naturally knew the purpose of Su Guang's coming here.
Ye Cangyan said to He Qing: "The entire Immortal Sect is in chaos now, and everyone is looking for your whereabouts. But among them, how many people want to 'search' and how many want to 'kill'? Sect Leader He Qing, you should know it very well."
When Shi Tianxiao broke into the martial arts arena, He Qing did not appear in the battle. After Shi Tianxiao and the demon cultivator evacuated, He Qing also disappeared. Also taken away were the Linghui Sword and the Lingxiao Double Sword Manual in the secret room.
This time, the "fact" that He Qing betrayed the Immortal Sect is a foregone conclusion, and no one can clear it for her.
Everyone in the Xianmen wanted to bring He Qing back to the Xianmen to be punished, but the only ones who really wanted He Qing to return to Lingshan alive were probably the leaders of the four peaks of Lingshan. The rest wanted to kill He Qing and take the Linghui Sword and the Sword Manual for themselves.
He Qing glanced expressionlessly at Su Guang who was blowing the tea foam lightly, and thought to himself, this is what you did!
Su Guang sensed her gaze, turned around and smiled innocently: "Seeing you lose consciousness and fall into a coma, I was extremely worried and took you away in a hurry."
"..." He Qing was really impressed by this old man who never told the truth. He glared at him and then said to Ye Cangyan, "I can more or less guess how bad the situation is. Now that things have come to this, I don't intend to explain any more. If you, Demon Lord, are worried that I will bring trouble to Yushan, I can leave now."
Ye Cangyan shook his head and said, "You have helped my daughter and my wife before, and you are the benefactor of our family of three. If you want to avoid disaster in Yushan, I, Ye Cangyan, will protect you to the end without hesitation."
He Qing was stunned when he heard that. He didn't expect Ye Cangyan to be so righteous. No wonder he had gathered countless monsters in Yushan in just a few decades. His charisma was extraordinary.
"But," Ye Cangyan suddenly changed the subject and looked at Su Guang who had an indifferent expression: "If you have other requests, I'm sorry I can't help you."
Ye Cangyan's answer was already within He Qing's expectations. He immediately looked at Su Guang with a smile, signaling with his eyes: You thought you could get the Xiaoguang Sword by taking me with you, but you failed?
In the book, Ye Cangyan was willing to give the Xiaoguang Sword to Gu Changnian, not because of Gu Changnian and Hua Chiyu's love for Yue Qingru, but because he saw that he was the son of destiny granted by heaven, so he handed over the sword in accordance with heaven's will.
Ye Cangyan is a loyal fan of the Heavenly Dao, otherwise he would not have chosen to create his own magic to practice rather than become a demon after betraying the Immortal Sect.
Su Guang ignored He Qing's gloating, slowly turned the teacup, and said slowly: "I haven't even told you my purpose yet, and you are so determined to reject me?"
Ye Cangyan raised his hand and quickly took over Su Guang's words: "Young Master, there is no need to say more. You asked Shi Tianxiao and the other demon cultivators to attack Lingshan Mountain with great momentum, and then retreated after getting the sword manual and Linghui Sword. You came to Yushan Mountain that day. I know very well what you wanted. Although I don't know how you knew that Xiaoguang Sword was in Yushan Mountain, I'm sorry that I can't give this sword to you."
Hearing this, He Qing couldn't help but get curious, and asked Ye Cangyan, "If you leave me in Yushan to avoid disaster, I will definitely offend the people of the Immortal Sect. If you are unwilling to hand over the Xiaoguang Sword to the Demon Sect Young Master, you will offend the people of the Demon Sect. Aren't you afraid of being attacked from all sides, and Yushan will be razed to the ground by the people of both the Immortal Sect and the Demon Sect?"
Ye Cangyan smiled calmly: "Time and fate are beyond my control. Heaven is fair, and everyone has his own destiny. Back then, I was in a desperate situation and came to this wasteland that was sneered at by both immortals and demons, and I accidentally discovered the ancient divine weapon covered in dust here. It is also because of this Xiaoguang sword that the atmosphere of the wasteland is so suitable for the demon race to practice, and this is how the current Yushan Mountain came into being." Ye Cangyan said: "If Yushan Mountain no longer exists because of the Xiaoguang sword one day, it is nothing more than Yushan Mountain's destiny has come to an end, and the demon race's destiny has ended. This is God's will."
He Qing clasped his arms with one hand and covered his lips with the other, inexplicably feeling as if he had been taught a lesson.
Fate and destiny were emphasized to her many times by the Heavenly Dao, but at that time she only felt that the Heavenly Dao was ruthless and that it was easy for her to talk without any concern. However, when these principles that followed the laws of nature were spoken out by the ill-fated Ye Cangyan, He Qing was somewhat touched.
But He Qing reacted quickly and shook his head secretly: That was a close call! I was almost brainwashed!
Looking at Su Guang again, he did not interrupt Ye Cang Yan's expression at all, and even smiled when he heard it. After Ye Cang Yan finished speaking, he chuckled and said in a very slow and clear tone: "As expected of a demon lord, you are really insightful. No wonder you can find a fairy fate for your daughter."
After these words were spoken, the other two were stunned. Ye Cangyan, who was about to drink tea, paused and even spilled a few drops of tea.
He Qing didn't notice Ye Cangyan's reaction and blurted out, "Are you talking about Qingru? What immortal fate?" She had never seen it in the book.
Su Guang stopped looking at Ye Cang Yan and his eyes turned to He Qing. He held his chin and asked casually, "It's been so long since you got Yue Qingru's demon pill. Could it be that you haven't discovered its subtlety?"
He Qing immediately opened the seal on the storage bag and took out Yue Qingru's demon pill with a purple halo from it. He held it in his palm and turned it over and over to examine it. However, no matter how he looked at it, it was just a demon pill with too strong demon power and there was nothing mysterious about it.
Su Guang smiled dotingly, took it and held it between his fingers and explained patiently: "These are two demon pills. The outer one is Ye Cangyan's, and the inner one is Yue Qingru's." While speaking, he slightly applied a spell, and immediately through the light and shadow, he could see the outline of the extra demon pill inside the demon pill.
"Wow..." He Qing was shocked. He stared at the demon pill that was emitting seven colors, and muttered, "There is actually such a method?"
Ye Cangyan, who was standing aside, was sweating coldly. His hands, holding the teacup with such force that the joints turned white. His amber eyes had turned into vertical pupils, and there was a hint of murderous intent as he stared at Su Guang.
However, Su Guang didn't even look at him, and continued to "popularize science" to He Qing: "Isn't it amazing? What's even more amazing is that Yue Qingru's demon pill is not a real demon pill, but a divine essence."
"Shen Yuan?"
"Yes, Shen Yuan." The smile on Su Guang's face deepened, and he said word by word: "It is the power left behind when the ancient gods were stripped of their divinity. You can understand it as a relic."
He Qing was extremely shocked, but Ye Cangyan had already slammed the table and stood up, growling in fear and out of control: "How could you possibly know that the divine essence is hidden in this inner elixir? How on earth did you know?!"
