12 Chapter XII

Qin Rulian was the fifth leader of the Immortal Alliance.

Before Qin Rulian, there were six major families in the Immortal League, but in a disaster before Qin Gu was born, the Cangshan faction withdrew from the ranks of the family due to too many losses among its disciples;

As a result, there are only five great families left in the Immortal League today.

And Qin Gu's father is the former head of the Cangshan faction and the future head of the Cangshan faction-

If he hadn't died in the Cangshan turmoil, it would have been like this.

It was also after the turmoil in Cangshan that the punishment of demons became the first ban of the Immortal League.

The portrayal of Qin Gu's biological father in the original book ends here, this genius monk who died young did not even leave his name.

Qin Rulian led him back to the main hall, and then walked into the bedroom through the side door.

After becoming the leader of the Immortal Alliance, Qin Rulian lived in the Drinking Feng Pavilion only a handful of times, the bedroom was neat and clean, and the furniture was well placed, but he lacked a popularity.

She went straight to the bookshelf beside the bed, and raised her hand to turn an eagle statue placed on it;

I heard a rumbling sound from the depths, and the entire wall was flipped over, revealing a dark room with a faint candle flame.

Qin Gu's eyes widened slightly, it was normal for there to be a dark room in the master's residence, what shocked him was-

On the table facing the entrance was a wood-lacquered tablet, but there was no incense in front of the tablet, only a cold-lit knife holder with a long sword lying horizontally.

Qin Gu looked at this sword from afar, a strange sense of closeness surged in his chest, he could feel that the air pressure around the sword was different from that of other positions, but this sword did not show hostility towards him.

He had a faint feeling in his heart, and raised his eyes to look at the obscure wooden tabletβ€”

Jiang Chenghuo.

The moment I saw this name, my chest seemed to be hit by something, and I felt nostalgic and sour.

Qin Gu's lips moved silently.

Father.

He looked at Qin Rulian, but found that Qin Rulian was also looking at him, and the coldness in the similar peach blossom eyes subsided, which was gentleness that he had never seen before.

"Your family," Qin Ru said, "go and meet your father." ”

Qin Gu was a little hesitant, not knowing what emotions to use to face Jiang Chenghuo's tablet.

He thought of something: "Father's tablet, how can it be..."

How could it be in the Drinking Feng Pavilion, or even in Qin Rulian's bedroom?

Qin Rulian seemed to know what he was going to ask, and shook his head: "It's not important, take care of it, go ahead, this is the first time you have met." ”

Qin Gu paused and walked over.

Qin Rulian's voice sounded behind him: "This sword is called Hengqiu, it was a famous fierce sword back then, and no matter how many famous people couldn't tame it, later... It chooses your father. ”

Qin Gu looked at the Hengqiu Sword and got closer, and the ancient patterns on the scabbard became clearly visible, alienated and mysterious, full of an aura that no one could approach.

Qin Rulian seemed to be telling an extremely distant story: "When Cangshan was in turmoil, your father used it to kill one hundred and one demons, and he never let go until he died. ”

Qin Gu's mind uncontrollably appeared such a picture:

The young monk held a long sword, the blood of the demon dyed the blade a shocking red, and the corpses were all over the ground, and with each swing of the sword, the sword roared, and the head of a demon fell to the ground.

"Ironically, demons can't kill him," Qin Rulian's voice cooled, "He died at the hands of his fellow disciples. ”

Qin Gu's heart beat violently, as if he had been dragged into another abyss.

The sword pierced through his chest, and the monk spurted out a mouthful of blood in disbelief, and when he fell to the ground, he saw only a pair of scarlet eyes.

β€”β€”It turns out that behind the turmoil in Cangshan, there is such a hidden secret.

No wonder, no wonder Qin Rulian was so angry at his behavior of shielding Cicada Niang!

Qin Rulian didn't speak again, Qin Gu didn't know how to speak, and the dark room fell silent for a while.

He had already walked to Jiang Chenghuo's tablet, but he didn't dare to look at it directly.

What would Jiang Chenghuo think? He died at the hands of the demons, but his son spared the demons.

"Actually, it's not that we don't have no doubts," Qin Rulian spoke again, "If the traitor had been corrected from the beginning, he wouldn't have died, but he believed in his junior brother."

"Your father, everyone says he has great love, but I think he is too soft-hearted and indecisive."

Qin Gu didn't expect to hear such an evaluation, and he had mixed feelings in his heart.

In the real world, his parents were in a business marriage, and after he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, the marriage was dissolved, leaving him with a large sum of money and never contacted again.

He originally thought that a woman like Qin Rulian, who had clear grievances, could choose to give birth to a child after her husband's death, not just because of responsibility.

But indecision is really not a positive evaluation, and Jiang Chenghuo has been dead for 16 years, and today is the first time Qin Gu has paid homage.

In the original book, the original body didn't even know that Jiang Chenghuo's tablet was in the Drinking Feng Pavilion.

"That day in the palace," just as Qin Gu was hesitating, Qin Rulian suddenly changed his words, "I saw your father's shadow from you." ”

Qin Rulian's words fell word by word, like raindrops afraid to hit his heart.

"I realized that even if you never met your father, you can't change the blood that flows from you, half of it comes from him." "But you're also my child," she said. ”

"I believe you can take a different path from your father."

Qin Gu's pupils trembled, and at the same time, the Hengqiu Sword trembled violently in the scabbard, buzzing, and on it, a blue light faintly appeared in the intricate pattern-

The emotions in his chest surged, Qin Gu suddenly reached out and grabbed the hilt of the sword, and pulled the sword out of its sheath!

With every inch of the blade, the blue light was dazzling, and in his hand the heavy sword jumped into the sea like a fish, wielding it freely;

Qin Gu injected spiritual power into the sword, and the blue and red colors fused, illuminating the dark room brightly.

As the light shone brightly, the walls of the dark room disappeared, and he seemed to be standing on the top of a high mountain, with a boulder in front of him, obscuring his vision.

Qin Gu's hand was suddenly grasped, and he hurriedly turned around, only to see a handsome man smiling at him;

Qin Gu thought of Yan Baishu's evaluation: "You look very similar to your father. ”

The man moved with his arm, his wrist flipped, and the Hengqiu sword swept outβ€”

The blue light is like thousands of waves, cascading and agitating, and the waves crash against the stone cliffs, making a huge roar;

The sword wave did not stop, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into several waves, like splashing waves, violently shattering the boulder!

What a powerful breath it is to destroy a rock without much effort.

There seemed to be an understanding in his chest, Qin Gu raised his sword, and it was another split!

At first, the sword qi was still blue, but as the sword light slashed to the ground, the blue color gradually changed, as if it was engulfed in flames, and finally all turned red.

The ground shook and the ground shook and left a deep ravine.

Qin Gu was a little breathless, but Hengqiu's tremendous power made his heart surge.

A chuckle fell into his ear, and he turned his eyes to see that the man had withdrawn his hand at some point, and was standing to the side looking at him with a smile.

The man's smile was gentle and reassuring, Qin Gu understood in an instant, and took two steps closer to him: "Father! ”

Jiang Chenghuo took a step back, and his figure gradually collapsed;

The surroundings gradually darkened, and Jiang Chenghuo glanced in a certain direction.

This look was full of affection and deep apology.

Qin Gu followed his gaze and met Qin Rulian's eyes.

When I turned around again, there was still the shadow of Jiang Chenghuo, and the mountains disappeared, as if it was a big dream.

Only the red-light scorching Hengqiu Sword in his hand silently proved that this short time together was real.

Qin Rulian lowered his eyes and looked at Hengqiu Sword: "It really recognizes you as the master, and from today on, Hengqiu Sword will belong to you." ”

Qin Gu's sword was shattered by a palm during the battle with Yan Baishu, and the Hengqiu Sword could be described as timely rain.

Qin Gu nodded, thought about it, and told the truth about seeing Jiang Chenghuo.

Qin Rulian was slightly stunned, and when he heard the mountain peak scene described by Qin Gu, his eyes were gloomy: "I see... I'm afraid that when your father died, a wisp of divine consciousness was left on the Hengqiu Sword, and what you just entered was the realm constructed by this wisp of divine consciousness. What is the view from the top of the mountain? ”

Qin Gu replied: "It's beautiful." ”

Immediately thought about it: a wisp of divine consciousness can pull him into the realm, when Jiang Chenghuo dies, what kind of cultivation should he do?

What kind of strength should the demon cultivator who killed him have?

Hengqiu was in the sheath, Qin Gu pursed his lips and made up his mind: "Mother, before my father's divine consciousness dissipated, I had been watching you... He'sβ€”He's..."

When the words came to his lips, Qin Gu realized that it was not easy to say the word "love".

Qin Rulian smiled: "I know." ”

Then he stepped forward and stood in front of Jiang Chenghuo's tablet: "Today I see that you and Ji Yun have a very good relationship, Ji Yun is about to break through to the out-of-body realm, if you are free, go and guide him." Go back, take care of it, and recuperate. ”

Seeing that Qin Rulian mentioned Ji Yun in order for him to assist the other party in repairing, Qin Gu's hanging heart relaxed a little, he hugged his fist at Qin Rulian, turned around and retreated.

When he left the dark room, he seemed to see Qin Rulian stretching out his hand and gently stroking the name of "Jiang Chenghuo" on the tablet.

He suddenly realized that this tablet was old but clean, and there was no dust in it.
