    If you dare to touch Jiuling Mountain, you are doomed

    Wan Qiongju held the soul-protecting lamp in his arms and dragged Yu Jingyan, who was tied up, out of the side door. Qiu Yin’an held two swords in his hands to deal with the outsiders.

    I originally thought it was Chen Liang who came after hearing the news, but when I opened the door, I saw that it was a kind-hearted concubine who came to the rescue with several young disciples, “You are not allowed to harm the young master.”

    The young disciples each held up their magic weapons and put on a posture of eagerly protecting their master.

    Qiu Yin’an’s hand on the knife immediately relaxed a little. He looked at those young and tender faces and said: “The position of the Lord of Qingxuan Peak is about to be replaced. Yu Jingyan is no longer the Young Master. In the struggle for power in the sect, all of you are willing to die to make up for it. I will give you a chance. Get out of my way.”

    It is not easy to enter Qingxuan Peak to practice. Qiu Yin’an does not want to do anything with these ignorant disciples, but these stupid young people are very stubborn, each holding a magic weapon, still eager to try.

    Qiu Yin’an looked at their stubborn expressions and let out a sigh.

    He rotated his wrist lightly, and the two swords turned in a half-circle arc in the palm of his hand. Two pale golden sword energy burst out of the air, knocking the young disciples and their magical weapons to the ground.

    After opening the way for himself, Qiu Yin’an didn’t say anything more to these ignorant young disciples. He took two knives and rushed straight to the study room in the main hall to kill.

    As he stared at the door, Qiu Yin’an’s thoughts suddenly returned to the day when Chen Liang issued a document to revoke his identity as young master. At that time, he was concerned about Qingxuan Peak’s dominance in the world of cultivation and did not engage in a life-and-death fight with Chen Liang. He has been holding back that feeling until now.

    What made him regret even more was that his momentary scruples caused Lang Yue to die tragically, the witch cultivator came out to cause trouble, and Jiuling Mountain was massacred.

    At this moment, Qiu Yin’an saw clearly that variables were the norm in this world. He should not be so indecisive and hesitant. Chen Liang must die this time.

    Qiu Yin’an broke into the door with overwhelming anger. He raised his knife and pointed the blade directly at Chen Liang, who was sitting cross-legged in the palace. “Chen Liang, if you dare to touch Jiuling Mountain, I will make you pay with your blood today.”

    Chen Liang was doing his exercises and adjusting his breath, but was interrupted by the sudden roar. He calmly turned his hands to suppress the restless spiritual energy around his body.

    Chen Liang slowly opened his eyes, his eyes full of unabashed arrogance, “Oh? You already know. I originally wanted to go to you on New Year’s Eve, ahead of the two siblings, to wish you a happy New Year. I didn’t expect that you opened this gift in advance.”

    Qiu Yin’an was completely angered by the sinister curve at the corner of Chen Liang’s mouth. The veins in his hand holding the knife popped out. Without saying a word, he swung the knife straight into Chen Liang’s face.

    Upon seeing this, Chen Liang immediately dodged and narrowly avoided the fatal blow.

    Chen Liang suppressed the arrogance and pride on his face, and shouted sternly: “Qiu Yin’an, you killed me, don’t you want the Yao brothers and sisters to survive?”

    “Don’t lie to me, they are not in your hands at all.” Qiu Yin’an waved his sword to attack, his eyes became more and more fierce, like a beast that chooses people to devour, “If you dare to touch Jiuling Mountain, your good days will be over.”

    “If you talk arrogantly, I will let you taste my power today.” Chen Liang’s eyes were split, and he roared and fought with Qiu Yin’an. The two of them went back and forth, and a huge sound broke out when the spiritual power collided, and soon they hit the outside of the palace.

    This earth-shattering fighting sound quickly attracted all the disciples from the sect to come out and surround them one after another.

    When Chen Liang saw this, he immediately shouted loudly: “Qiu Yin’an dares to rebel because he has committed a crime. Let me capture him.”

    However, the disciples in the audience looked at each other, but no one came forward.

    When Qiu Yin’an saw this, he understood in his heart, and then turned to the disciples and said loudly: “Chen Liang colluded with the shaman cultivators to indiscriminately kill the innocent monk Lang Yue, and now he has brutally massacred the entire sect of Jiuling Mountain. The crimes are too numerous to list. Now, I will pull this evil thief down, and I will be in charge of Qingxuan Peak in the future.”

    As soon as he finished speaking, Elder Qianhe stood up first and said in a deep voice: “What Mu Yang Xianzun said is absolutely true. Chen Liang kills innocent people indiscriminately and has lost his moral character. He is no longer worthy of being the lord. I, the Secretary Pavilion, are willing to support Mu Yang Xianzun to ascend the throne.”

    Another elder also stood up and spoke angrily: “Originally, this position should be occupied by Mu Yangxian. Lord Qiu trusted Chen Liang so much that he left him alone before his death. However, Chen Liang betrayed his trust and usurped the position of Lord. Such a shameless person should step down from the position of Lord.”

    With these two taking the lead, the elders of each cabinet also expressed their stance, criticizing Chen Liang’s lack of virtue.

    Chen Liang’s face was ashen and he said: “I have bad moral character, what kind of good thing is Qiu Yin’an? He ignores the rules of the sect and dares to do such things with his disciples. You still support him as the lord, aren’t you afraid of encouraging this bad atmosphere?”

    Now, in fact, as long as Qiu Yin’an denies it, everyone will follow the trend and say that Chen Liang deliberately slandered him, but Qiu Yin’an doesn’t want this. He doesn’t want his love for Wan Qiongju to never be seen in the light.

    “He and I are in love with each other and we are in love with each other. What’s wrong with that?” Qiu Yin’an said without hesitation and in a frank tone, “I don’t think there is anything wrong with this matter.”

    Chen Liang continued to incite, trying to sway people’s hearts, “If everyone follows the example of your master and disciple, and does not follow the right path, but only wants to improve their cultivation by cultivating with people with powerful magic powers, then who will devote themselves to cultivation, and the entire sect will be in chaos?”

    “Wan Qiongju and I are practicing dual cultivation just because we love each other. It is not as dirty as you say, just to improve our cultivation.” Qiu Yin’an’s eyes were firm and his tone was loud, “You don’t need to make a fuss about this matter. If I ascend the throne, the first thing I will do is to abolish this unreasonable rule. From now on, Qingxuan Peak, I have the final say.”

    Chen Liang glanced at the elders and saw that everyone was moved by Qiu Yin’an’s frank words and looked at him with a bit of shame. He knew that it was useless to talk anymore. The last trace of disguised justice on his face suddenly shattered and was replaced by bone-chilling coldness. “Since you are so stubborn, don’t blame me for being rude.”

    Chen Liang snorted angrily, turned to the two people behind him and shouted, “Chengying, Haidi, tell your disciples to take action. Anyone who dares to support Qiu Yin’an will be killed.”

    “Wait a minute.” Qiu Yin’an stopped him and said, “Chen Liang, the grudge between you and me, why should these innocent disciples die in vain?”

    Bai Chengying also raised his hand to signal his disciples to stay still, while Hai Di also observed the situation.

    At this moment, Qiu Yin’an’s eyes fell on Bai Chengying. He frowned and asked in a deep voice: “Bai Chengying, Yu Jingyan said that Jiuling Mountain was massacred by your disciples?”

    Bai Chengying pursed her lips tightly and rolled her eyes with unclear meaning, “I can’t help it either.”

    “Although you are a disciple trained by Chen Liang, you are better than him. Your magic power is much higher than his, and your life is far better than his.” Qiu Yin’an said with a hint of disappointment and regret in his tone, “I always thought you could distinguish right from wrong and know right from wrong. But now, you are collaborating with him and killing the innocent Jiulingshan. I am so disappointed in you.”

    Bai Chengying’s eyes blinked slightly, his lips moved a few times, and his voice had an imperceptible tremor, “Have I ever been this good in your eyes?”

    Seeing this, Chen Liang quickly reminded him, “Chengying, don’t be stupid. No matter how good you are, he doesn’t like you. Don’t be fooled by his sweet words. Our master and apprentice will work together to defeat him. When the time comes, we can capture him. If you like it, then abolish his cultivation skills and lock him up at your disposal. Quick, let your disciples take action.”

    Qiu Yin’an sneered: “Chen Liang, you have a bad idea. Don’t harm other people’s lives because of our grudges. It’s not easy for these disciples to come to Qingxuan Peak to practice. Why don’t you take Bai Chengying and Haidi and follow me to the Blood Dissolving Cave to fight. If you die, just feed the soul of the corpse to the Tan Bell Beast. From now on, it’s all over. How about that?”

    “Qiu Yin’an, what conspiracy are you playing?” Chen Liang looked at Qiu Yin’an warily.

    Qiu Yin’an: “Do you care about my conspiracy, or do you care more about the life or death of your son Yu Jingyan?”

    Only then did Chenliang realize that his precious son was missing.

    Qiu Yin’an sneered, “Originally, I planned to give your son a way out, but you dared to attack Jiuling Mountain. Then don’t blame me for being cruel. Let him accompany you to hell.”

    Chen Liang: “If you dare to touch a hair of Jingyan, I will definitely pay you back tenfold.”

    Qiu Yin’an raised the corners of his lips jokingly, “I have already ordered my disciple to send your son to the Hemolysis Cave. There happens to be a pond bell beast there. I am going to call him and feed your son to it bit by bit.”

    “Qiu Yin’an – you beast.” Chen Liang’s eyes were scarlet red with anxiety, and his forehead was covered with sweat. He concentrated his strength on his hands and struck at Qiu Yin’an, but Qiu Yin’an only dodged and did not respond.

    Qiu Yin’an found an opportunity to get rid of Chen Liang’s attack, turned around and flew towards the Hemolysis Cave.

    Chen Liang was so anxious that without saying a word, he showed his sword and chased Qiu Yin’an.
