Chapter Fifty-Six: Ending in the Storm

Ruan Qishen's defeat announced the official end of today's civil strife in the Cold Mountain Sword Sect.

With Su Mu's strong return to turn the tide, the Cold Mountain Sword Sect avoided a possible turmoil and blood-light disaster.

In the midst of the lightning and thunder, Su Mu completed his return with a sword dance that had been delayed for three years for nine days, and Ruan Qishen's conspiracy was also crushed.

Under the signal of Gao Yuanshan and Li Mengru, someone soon controlled Ruan Qishen and Ruan Feng, who had lost consciousness.

Ruan Qishen coughed up blood and kept scolding in his mouth, while Ruan Feng followed behind with a dejected face.

They will be duly punished for what they have done.

As for the disciples who once rebelled with Ruan Qishen today, although Gao Yuanshan did not punish them, they also knew in their hearts that the Hanshan Sword Sect would have no place for themselves in the future, and they would also choose to leave the sect one after another in the following days.

Gao Yuanshan didn't say anything, and he didn't make any more troubles.

The Cold Mountain Sword Sect, which was originally not a small scale, suddenly became deserted, and of course these are all later words.

Su Mu, who defeated Ruan Qishen at this time, actually calmed down when he saw that Ruan Qishen had lost his ability to fight. Just holding the sword quietly like this, standing in the pouring rain, letting the torrential continue to wash his body.

Of course, Su Mu knew that it was Ruan Qishen's deliberate provocation that made him lose the possibility of continuing to practice swords, and his revenge was indeed very happy, but it did not bring him the pleasure of lasting long.

Now that the matter was over, Su Mu quickly threw Ruan Qishen in his mind and stopped thinking about it.

The sect was cheering, the thunder was roaring, the wind and rain were howling, but Su Mu's heart was becoming more and more calm, the hustle and bustle of the sect, the shouts of the master and senior brother, and the excitement of the little junior sister, none of these seemed to have anything to do with him.

Su Mu's world also seemed to be washed clean by the heavy rain, so empty and lonely, he was just simply reminiscing about Fang Cai's sword moves.

Strictly speaking, whether it is Wan Qi Lei or Blue Sky Shadow, the current Su Mu can't even imitate it.

Fang Cai's Ten Thousand Thunder was only cast by relying on the guidance of the existing Heavenly Thunder, not to mention the effect, it was not Su Mu's own power at all, and it was impossible to cast it out of thin air.

The blue sky shadow is even more outrageous, directly failing to cast, turning into an unexpected and indescribable failed move. Even the Sword Dance Nine Heavens, which had been half-used three years ago, was much better than it.

This made Su Mu feel a little frustrated in his heart, and it also made him know that there were many advanced moves in this world that he couldn't understand and master.

The world of the sword path is deep and lofty, and the previous Su Mu had not even fully understood the moves in the Cold Mountain Sword Sect and had already produced some signs of eyes above the top, which was simply unreasonable in the eyes of Su Mu now.

Arrogance comes from ignorance.

And whether it is the swordsmanship of Yunke and Zhang Ziqi in the drunken immortal house, or the unfathomable Taibai sword technique in Taibai's true meaning, these experiences made Su Mu, who had always grown up in the Cold Mountain Sword Sect, feel the vastness of the world for the first time.

I don't know if I sit in the well and watch the sky, maybe I should go out and have a look. Su Mu had such a thought in his heart.

"Brother Mu, you are so powerful! you won that Ruan Qishen!" The little junior sister Yin Yu grabbed Su Mu's arm and said happily, of course Yin Yu trusted Su Mu more than anyone else, but before seeing it with his own eyes, he couldn't believe that Su Mu could defeat that Ruan Qishen.

Triggering the Heavenly Thunder Attack, what kind of exaggerated and outrageous sword move is this? Sure enough, it is worthy of Brother Mu, who is unparalleled in the world in his heart, Yin Yu is very excited in his heart, and that sword move also makes her look forward to it very much.

"Senior Brother Su Mu!"

"Mu'er!"

Gao Yuanshan, Li Encheng, and Li Mengru stepped forward to surround Su Mu. Only then did they know that Su Mu could control the situation, and everyone did not step forward to help, and now that the victory and defeat have been divided, everyone can't restrain the complicated emotions in their hearts.

The upright posture in the heavy rain, the resolute expression, the knife-like edges and eyebrows, and the eyes with a galaxy in them. Gao Yuanshan looked at Su Mu, who had grown up a lot, and his heart was full of emotion.

I don't know how much this child has endured over the years, and what kind of hardships he has suffered.

"Master, senior brother!" Su Mu, who was brought back to his senses by everyone's voices, also responded with a smile.

This is the Hanshan Sword Sect, his home, and there are many people and things he is familiar with. Three years have passed, and everything seems to have changed a lot, but it seems as if it has never changed. Even the cherry blossom tree in the back mountain is still the same as when I was a child.

The outside world may be exciting, but for now, let's enjoy the feeling of home after a long absence.

Gao Yuanshan has a thousand words at the moment, but he doesn't know where to start, there is still a mess in the sect at the moment, and as the head of the sect, he must fulfill his responsibility to clean up the mess. I had to let Otoyu accompany Su Mu back to pack up his things first, and he and Li Encheng stayed alone.

The heavy rain still did not mean to stop, but it was getting heavier and heavier.

Gao Yuanshan ordered his disciples to imprison Ruan Qishen's master and apprentice in the dungeon of the sect and keep them under strict guard, and they could not be released without his own orders. Wait until necessary to interrogate him, after all, there are still too many mysteries left on Ruan Qishen.

What did he have to do with the murder of his disciples under the mountain? Who taught him such a cruel evil method as absorbing the skills of others?

He knew very well in his heart that the dark clouds hanging over the cold mountain had not dispersed, and Ruan Qishen was just one of the ones who charged ahead.

Gao Yuanshan appeased the three Great Elders and the other Inner Sect disciples, and took back the seal of the head of the sect that had been placed with the Great Elder. Let Li Xihan and Hanshan Xia take care of the injured Li Mengru and Hanshan Xue to rest first.

Gao Yuanshan hadn't worked on the affairs of the sect like this for many years, and he was a little anxious for a while. Li Encheng, who knew Gao Yuanshan's physical condition, followed and helped him a lot.

Li Encheng knew very well that Gao Yuanshan's body was declining, and with his current situation, it would not be surprising that he would fall at any time.

After most of the affairs were taken care of, Gao Yuanshan handed over the rest to Li Encheng and found an opportunity to go to Su Mu's room.

At this time, Su Mu had already packed his luggage and changed into a brand new suit, the previous Taoist clothes were no longer enough to wear, and when Su Mu came back, he was wearing the clothes that the butterfly fairy had prepared for him, which made Gao Yuanshan a little unaccustomed to it for a while. In the end, it was Otowa who went to find an old coat from the sect and reluctantly put it on.

Looking at Su Mu who was wearing the Hanshan Sword Sect practice uniform, Gao Yuanshan showed a relieved smile.

This is the child of my Cold Mountain Sword Sect!
