Chapter 309: Immortal Venerable Falls to Darkness 38
Liang Lanyi speaks up
"Peak Master Jiang, what happened inside?"
"There was a battle inside, and a two-headed giant python died."
Jiang Song responded.
Liang Lanyi was startled upon hearing this, muttering
"A two-headed giant python?"
Jiang Song frowned, continuing
"I saw an unmarked plaque on the ground. This place seems to be a grave for the distinguished. That two-headed giant python must have been its guardian beast."
Liang Lanyi urgently asked
"What was inside? Was it taken by that demon?"
Jiang Song fell silent, his hand slowly tightening into a fist, a determined look flashing across his eyes
"We must take it back."
Something guarded by a two-headed giant python must be a top-notch item.
And if that item falls into the hands of that demon, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Upon hearing Jiang Song’s words, Liang Lanyi almost immediately agreed, gritting his teeth,
"That demon commits all evils. We must unite all cultivators to completely eliminate this major threat from the Cultivation World!"
After speaking, Liang Lanyi hesitated
"Peak Master, what should we do?"
At that moment, with a ’pu’ sound, Liang Yunyue spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
Probably because Liang Lan and Jiang Song were discussing the demon in front of her, which disturbed her tranquility.
She failed her meditation, and even nearly couldn’t protect her inner core.
Jiang Song looked at the dying Liang Yunyue, his eyes unreadable.
Approaching Liang Yunyue, his expression solemn,
"Yun Yue, eliminating the demon is our responsibility as cultivators. For this, we will not hesitate to die, right?"
Liang Yunyue wiped the blood from the corner of her lips, then nodded weakly in response,
"Yes."
Jiang Song stared fixedly at Liang Yunyue, extended his hand, and grasped her arm.
"Then would you be willing, for the greater good, to give your life for this?"
Liang Yunyue’s eyes flashed with confusion
"Senior brother, do you have a plan?"
Jiang Song nodded
"Yes, but this plan requires your cooperation."
"What is it?"
Jiang Song closed his eyes, his expression somewhat sorrowful,
"It requires you to die."
As soon as the words fell, his longsword, which had disappeared from his hand, reappeared.
With a ’puchi’ sound, the longsword pierced directly through Liang Yunyue’s heart.
Liang Yunyue, in disbelief, had blood trickling down the corner of her lips.
Her hand trembling, she tried to reach for Jiang Song,
"Senior, Senior Brother?"
Probably, she had never imagined that instead of dying at the hands of that demon, she would die by the hand of her most trusted senior brother.
Jiang Song, holding Liang Yunyue in his arms, refused to look at her affection anymore.
Until Liang Yunyue completely breathed her last.
Liang Lan, who was beside them, had already turned pale, his mouth trembling
"Senior, Senior Brother?"
Jiang Song took a deep breath, his face returning to normal, he looked firmly at Liang Lanyi
"Demon Sect Leader Su Yan broke into the master’s tomb on Qingyu Mountain, stole the treasure, killed your senior sister, and extracted her Golden Core. His heart is brutal; we must call upon all fellow cultivators to seek justice!"
Liang Lanyi, trembling, tried to respond but couldn’t utter a word.
Following this, Jiang Song reached for Liang Yunyue’s abdomen, extracted her formed Golden Core.
With his blood-drenched hand, he presented it to Liang Lanyi.
Liang Lanyi shivered as he looked at Jiang Song.
Before he could speak, Jiang Song said,
"Your cultivation is too weak. Consuming this Golden Core and consolidating for a few months will make you stronger than your cousin now. You might even match that demon."
"Do you still want to be a useless disciple who is treated with disdain?"
