Chapter 447: The Fall of the Sovereign
The sect leader was too seriously injured this time. Gu Huaiwei did not recover his memory at the beginning and did not know that the person in front of him was his senior brother, so he did not keep any effort when he attacked him.
The poor sect leader recognized his junior brother early, and was still concerned about his friendship with the other party and refused to fight to the death, and finally he was defeated miserably.
Now that Liuguang Sword Sect has been razed to the ground, everyone was unable to restore the entire sect for a while, and could only temporarily place the sect leader who was unable to move in a bamboo building magic weapon.
The bamboo building is only three floors, and the location is not large, at most some disciples who are seriously injured and need to be cultivated.
The sect leader was placed in the largest room, but even though it was already the largest room, when Sang Zheng and his wife stepped into the door, they still felt a little blocked.
Hearing the movement from the door, the sect leader, who had already exhausted his energy, looked towards them with all his might.
Two figures appeared in the blurred vision. The sect leader blinked his eyes with difficulty, but he never saw clearly the appearance of the visitor: "Who is here?"
His voice was a little hoarse and weak.
When Sang Zheng and Wen Miaoshu saw his current appearance, a sigh appeared on their faces: "It's me." Sang Zheng cleared his throat and replied.
When the sect leader heard this voice, his expression changed immediately.
He subconsciously wanted to pounce on Sang Zheng, but the sect leader misjudged his current body and strength. He just moved a little and almost fell off the bed.
In the end, Sang Zheng raised his hand and helped him, which saved the fate of the sect leader from falling to the ground. However, the sect leader who was supported subconsciously trembled when he touched Sang Zheng's hand.
"You're back." He said with emotion, "I knew you would be back, I knew..."
At the end of the day, he had already started to murmur, and no one could hear the slightest words in his mouth except him.
Sang Zheng had just gotten closer and wanted to hear clearly what he was saying, but the sect leader grabbed his arm tightly.
The person lying on the bed in a mess has lost his former glory. His original black hair has become white because of his blood. Even the hand he poked out towards Sang Zheng was crawling.
It is full of wrinkles like old tree bark.
Wen Miaoshu looked at the sect leader's current appearance and looked away with some helplessness. But she did not have any mercy on his fate today, and only felt that the other party was just a blame.
"Resurrection is, yes... Gu, Gu..." The sect leader held Sang Zheng's hand and became excited again.
At this moment, he had no air at all and no air in. He looked like he was exhausted.
When Sang Zheng heard the words that were difficult to spit out from his mouth, he immediately guessed the meaning of his words and hurriedly said, "I know, we know! Resurrection is Gu Huaiwei, we already know this."
Upon hearing this, the sect leader finally closed his eyes a little, and he no longer felt as hysterical as before. He just looked quietly in the direction of Sang Zheng, tears rolling down and finally hidden in his hair.
"I'm sorry." These three words were slowly and firmly spit out of the sect leader's mouth, causing the other two present to have mixed feelings for a while.
This apology made them feel particularly uncomfortable. Even though the relationship between the two of them was not very good with the sect leader in the past, they were also fellow disciples for so many years.
Even Sang Zheng once believed so much in front of him and was willing to hand over his daughter to him for his care.
But this person finally disappointed them. Not only did he plot against himself, he almost killed their daughter.
Sang Zheng did not let go of the sect leader's hand, but he just spoke with indifference: "We have accepted this apology, but whether you can forgive you depends on what Sang Ying means. We have no way to make a decision for her."
After saying that, Sang Zheng pulled out his hand slightly. The couple finally glanced at the sect leader and pushed the door without saying a word and left.
On the second day after they met the sect leader, when Mu Xuan, the sect leader's disciple, went to deliver medicine to him as usual, they found that the other party had lost his breath at some point.
So, after losing the sect, Liuguang Sword Sect quickly lost their sect leader.
Because now everything is in trouble, Zhengli Lanjie has suffered a severe blow and it still takes time to lick the wounds. Therefore, the funeral of the sect leader was held in a bit hasty and simple.
On that day, most of the elders and disciples of the sect attended the funeral, but only Sang Ying's family and Wan Daosheng did not come forward.
But even so, no one here expressed dissatisfaction with this, and even Mu Xuan did not have any objection. Because the grudge between the Sect Master and Sang Zheng's family had long been revealed by Elder Yanhua, everyone was moved by the one hand
The death of the sect leader was disgusted by what he had done.
Even the day before the funeral, Mu Xuan went to kneel in front of the bamboo building where the Sang family now lives, saying that he would spend his whole life to forgive the measures his master had made.
Of course, Sang Ying refused to agree. In her opinion, the sect leader is the sect leader, while Mu Xuan is Mu Xuan. Why should the former do something wrong, let the latter take responsibility?
But Mu Xuan refused to agree: "I have received many years of favor from Master. Even if I didn't know that he had made a mistake in the past, now that I know this, I cannot ignore it. I should settle this grudge for Master.
That's it."
He spoke seriously, his eyes full of persistence, and he said toughly that if the Sang family did not agree, he would kneel in front of the bamboo building and not get up.
Sang Zheng had no choice but to agree with the Taoist couple's disapproval.
After the funeral of the sect leader, everyone began to discuss the candidate for the new sect leader.
Among them, the most popular ones were Sang Zheng and Elder Yanhua, but because Elder Yanhua was very interested in earthly affairs, the burden could only fall on Sang Zheng in the end.
So, when Sang Zheng was stuffed with a sect leader seal into his arms and heard several elders proclaiming him as the successor sect leader on the spot, his entire face was full of the word "confused".
But the announcement has been made, and even if Sang Zheng wants to renege or refuse, it will be too late.
Fortunately, the elders also knew Sang Zheng’s dissatisfaction, so they took a step back in the end, saying that when Mu Xuan grew up and could stand alone, they would allow Sang Zheng to step down and leave.
Sang Zheng had no choice but to accept it and extended his plan to return to the fairy world with his wife and daughter.
However, Jiulian and others really couldn't delay his plan to delay his return, so it was time to set off and return to the sect.
Now that the crisis in the Lilan Realm has been resolved, the rest is the task of resting and rebuilding the sect. These tasks do not require disciples of Wan Daosheng, and they have been out for a long time, so it is time to return to the sect.
Originally, Sang Ying planned to leave with Jiulian and the others, but because Sang Zheng was forced to stay as the sect leader, she changed her mind and planned to stay in the Lilan Realm for a while. The matter here was almost done.
Go back to Wandaosheng again.
Jiulian did not stop him, but before leaving, he said seriously to Sang Ying: "You must remember to go back to the sect and don't let your master wait too long!"
Sang Ying nodded at him with a smile.
All the trivial matters on the ground have been handled completely, and the talents of Liuguang Sword Sect finally have time to deal with the people under the ground.
After being locked into the dark for a long time, Gu Huaiwei and Qi Yaoji finally waited for the third person to enter the water prison.
Gu Huaiwei listened to the footsteps slowly approaching, and suddenly looked up and met Sang Zheng's eyes.
