Chapter 1548: Dust Settled

Outside the Li family ancestral hall.

"Huh!"

Su Yi snapped out of his deep concentration, took a long breath, slowly opened his eyes, and a sparkling light returned to his starry gaze. The sound of wind and thunder vanished instantly, replaced by a powerful wave of energy that surged into the distance like a wave of light.

"Ooh!"

"You’re awake! I haven’t even fallen asleep yet, and you’ve already recovered. You’re such a freak with your incredible speed!" Yun Qing covered her mouth and giggled.

"Why am I a freak?" Su Yi asked, confused.

"You should go outside and see for yourself. Thanks to you, it may have become a terrifying hell out there!" Yun Qing looked at Su Yi with eyes shining like stars.

"Hmph, I brought this upon myself. Those who slaughter will be slaughtered!" Su Yi’s expression suddenly grew serious, and his robe fluttered as an invisible aura roiled around him. His face had a frosty and otherworldly presence.

For Sacred Mountain, Su Yi felt only endless anger and hatred. He was responsible for his own fate!

"I’m afraid those old men might come tomorrow, and you’ll have trouble dealing with them!" Yun Qing said with some worry.

"Don’t worry, when I saved Thunderous Lion and Flame Winged Eagle, they promised me they would handle Elder Xu and Elder Liu. Wang Quande and Xue Honglou will be taken care of by me personally!" Su Yi muttered softly, his fighting spirit boiling in his veins.

Yun Qing’s gaze flickered slightly, still feeling worried. "So how do we get out? If a fight really breaks out, we might make mistakes."

Su Yi paused for a moment, took out a bag from his pocket and handed it to Yun Qing, saying solemnly, "I used this thing over ten days ago, and it should be working again now."

Su Yi continued, "Jing Er, I know your strength. Just in case, if there are really powerful enemies, use this to leave and bring everything to the Divine Sword School, where I’ll meet you."

"I don’t want to go alone, I want to go together!" Yun Qing returned the item to Su Yi and protested.

"Can you guarantee that you won’t faint again?" Su Yi asked in return.

"Don’t worry, I still have the power of the Iron Soul Beast. Let’s go! It’s time to activate the Heavenly Crystal formation!" Su Yi said softly.

As they left the ancestral temple, Sun Hao and Zhang Dan immediately came to greet them, handing over two heavy bags to Yun Qing and whispering, "Madam, these are the sorted Soul Measuring Heavenly Crystals, a total of 1,271 pieces, and all the space bags of the Sacred Mountain disciples! They’re all here!"

After that, Zhang Dan took out a special bag and said respectfully to Su Yi, "Master… Master, this was just brought by a scary creature called a demon beast. Inside, there are thousands of precious crystals called Soul Measuring Heavenly Crystals!"

Su Yi nodded slightly, seeing that demon beasts are more reliable than humans. He waved his hand and said, "Give these to Mo QingMartial Sister! This is the antidote. You can leave now!"

Sun Hao and Zhang Dan exchanged glances, feeling a bit incredulous. They said, "Master… Master! We know you’re not Duan Hong, you must be a heroic figure. Although you have been tough on us these days, you have been much kinder to us compared to the people at Sacred Mountain Academy. We don’t want to leave! We want to join you!"

Yun Qing raised an eyebrow, looking at the two with surprise. She hadn’t expected that, when it came down to it, these two insignificant people would prove to be trustworthy. Although their skills were low, they seemed quite sharp.

"Take the antidote and we can discuss joining later! If you truly have the intention, I will arrange for you to join my sect!"

The two were instantly shocked. Indeed, the Duan Hong before them was no ordinary person. He was the leader of a sect. After hurriedly expressing their thanks, they quickly escaped.

"Can we really trust them?" Yun Qing asked, puzzled.

"These two have helped me a lot and have made up for their debts these past days! With their low cultivation level, they won’t cause trouble. As long as they don’t do anything evil, sparing their lives won’t be a problem!" Su Yi’s expression gradually grew dark as he turned towards the one thousand cultivators full of water energy.

"But these people, as well as all those who were involved in the massacre by the Li family, must all pay with their lives!"

After speaking, Su Yi raised his knife and the anger in his heart surged along with a powerful burst of energy. All the people’s energy rushed towards the Heavenly Crystal Residue in Su Yi’s hand like a water-spouting whale dragon.

"Clang!"

Following the method taught by the Iron Soul Beast, Su Yi suddenly unleashed a tremendous amount of energy that swept up into the sky. In an instant, the entire sky turned icy blue, and the dazzling water energy enveloped the Li clan ancestral hall like a giant bubble.

It was a dazzling and breathtaking sight, like a crystal blue night pearl under a starry sky. The surge of energy was deafening, and all the water energy cultivators felt as if their energy was being drained. The whirlpool in their lower abdomen, the sea of qi, acted like an air pump constantly emptying out. Even their bloodline essence seemed to be sucked away.

"Help! Help!"

"Junior brother Duan Hong, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have snatched the Li clan’s Dharma Tool!"

"I was wrong, I shouldn’t have seized the Li clan’s book on elixirs!"

"It was wrong of me to kill the Li clan elder and take his granddaughter by force!"

In an instant, all the water energy cultivators confessed their sins, hoping that Su Yi would spare them. The more they spoke, the more unpleasant it became. Finally, Yun Qing covered her ears, showing a disdainful expression.

"It’s you! You guys, the garbage who deserve to live in the lower class, apologize to the Li family in hell!"

With each repentant word spoken, Su Yi’s raging anger grew stronger. In the end, his overwhelming desire for revenge swept through the Li ancestral hall like a storm, causing chaos in the air and energy of the world.

The immensely large ice-blue spirit water ball gradually transformed into a blue water dragon, shining brightly like a living creature. It devoured all one thousand water attribute cultivators and finally turned into a streak of light, heading straight towards Su Yi’s Heavenly Crystal Residue.

"Boom!"

One thousand water attribute cultivators fell to the ground, appearing withered and lifeless. Their deep, dark eyes resembled caves, and their skin emitted a faint glow in the darkness, with no trace of blood.

The bodies, deprived of their essence, were as fragile as paper and dispersed with the wind.

"Dust shall return to dust, why linger on sorrow in the mortal world?" Yun Qing sighed softly. These insignificant individuals were nothing more than having had a fleeting dream.

In that moment, Su Yi fully awakened from this blood-soaked nightmare. Sacred Mountain, from this day forward, was no longer an awe-inspiring existence, but a hypocritical sect that merely covered up its shame.

"Sacred Mountain, I will settle all the accounts with you, clear and transparent!"

"Animal, stop!"

Su Yi squinted his eyes and saw two dazzling golden lights approaching from afar. Two powerful forces rose into the sky, like terrifying energy dispersing, and a strong wind swept through the surroundings.

"Did they come so quickly?"

This swift speed was beyond Su Yi’s expectations.

When the newcomers stood still, their seductive figures immediately made Su Yi furrow his brows and a cold smile formed at the corner of his mouth.

"Who would have thought, it’s an old acquaintance!"

Yun Qing’s face gradually turned cold and her expression became chilly. "So it’s your wife who has arrived!"
