[R18] The Patriarch of the Demonic Way (newly revised version) – “The Patriarch of the Demonic Way (Newly Revised Edition)” Chapter 80 [English]

Chapter 80 Loyalty Nineteen 2

After the buzzing Demon-Conquering Cave became quiet again, Lan Wangji turned to Wei Wuxian and said, “You continue.”

Su She’s eyes were full of anger, but his upper and lower lips were tightly glued, and his throat was as dry as fire.Rather than being anxious about not being able to open his mouth to attack Wei Wuxian, what is burning in his heart now is the humiliation of being controlled by Lan Wangji.He repeatedly scratched his throat with his fingers, trying to break the forbidden spell, but to no avail, he had no choice but to look at Lan Qiren.Unexpectedly, Lan Qiren’s face was cold and unmoving, not even looking at him.Originally, Lan Qiren could undo it, and as long as it was the forbidden spell that was unlocked by Lan’s elders, out of respect, Lan Wangji would definitely not cast any spell on him again.However, the Moling Su family and the Gusu Lan family had a lot of unpleasantness, so at this time Lan Qiren had no intention of solving the problem.

Everyone finally understood. It seemed that as long as someone tried to argue with Wei Wuxian, Lan Wangji would silence him and remain silent for a while.However, there are always warriors who are not afraid of death and stand up at such times, mockingly saying: “Wei Wuxian, you really deserve to be the ancestor of Yiling, aren’t you? You are so domineering. Are you going to stop people from talking at this time?”

Wei WuXian said, “That’s really weird.”

Lan SiZhui asked, “Senior Wei, what’s so strange?”

Wei Wuxian said, “This Sect Master Su has been acting strange since just now. When the corpses gathered around him, he called on those who had lost their spiritual power not to ask for life but to die together. Now he has blocked my mouth and prevented me from interrogating him. And he keeps trying to provoke me, for fear that you will live for a moment longer. What is the reason for this? Are there any allies like this?”

After being mentioned like this by Wei Wuxian, many people were suspicious: Sect Master Su seemed to have spoken too much today.However, no one else expressed their opinions, and it was inconvenient for them to express their opinions, so they all carefully chose to remain silent.Others began to secretly think about what they did before or on the way up the mountain.Wei Wuxian looked at the disciples of the Moling Su family, who were standing very far away from the disciples of the Gusu Lan family, and the latter didn’t even bother to pay the former any attention.The more he looked, the more he felt something was awkward. He asked Lan Wangji in a low voice: “Hanguang-Jun, let me ask you, the Gusu Lan clan and the Moling Su clan are both Lexiu, and the Gusu Moling clan are not far away from each other in the Jiangnan area. Generally speaking, shouldn’t the relationship be okay? Why do you feel that the relationship between the two families is so bad?”

Lan SiZhui and Lan Jingyi squeezed over. When Lan Jingyi heard this, he loudly said, “Of course the relationship is bad!”

Lan Wangji said: “The Moling Su Clan is a branch that separated from the Gusu Lan Clan.”

Wei Wuxian said, “What?”

Lan SiZhui covered Lan Jingyi’s mouth and whispered, “Senior Wei, you don’t know something. The Moling Su family is a sect founded by a disciple with a foreign surname after he left the Gusu Lan family. Since he cannot escape the shadow of the clan, the He family’s secret skills are similar to those of the Gusu Lan family. They are good at music. Even the first-grade spiritual weapon of the family leader Su Minshan is a seven-stringed guqin similar to Hanguang Lord.”

Wei Wuxian looked back at Su She, who had a gloomy expression, and was speechless.Lan Jingyi broke away from Lan SiZhui and said angrily: “Not only that, but something even weirder is yet to come! This Sect Master Su… well, I know you have to keep your voice down! This Sect Master Su not only learns everything, but he also has a special taboo on people saying that he imitates our Hanguang Lord, otherwise he will immediately fall out. How can there be such a person in the world!” Hearing him speak louder and louder, Lan SiZhui said helplessly: “Jingyi!”

Su She had heard everything clearly, his face was livid, his eyes were full of anger, he vomited out a mouthful of blood, and finally broke the forbidden speech force. But when he opened his mouth, his voice was hoarse as if he had aged ten years, and said: “What a well-educated Gusu Lan clan, full of celebrities, and number one in the Taoist sect! So this is how he teaches his disciples!”

Sect Master Ouyang said, “Sect Master Su, now that we are facing a formidable enemy, we must not let our own people harm the peace.” Su She sneered, “Our own people? Look at the Gusu Lan Sect, everyone is messing with Wei Wuxian, how can they be considered one of our own people?”

He said that, the others of the Gusu Lan Sect were not happy.Lan Qiren glanced at he but said nothing. An older, high-ranking guest official showed a sullen look on his face: “Su Minshan, even if you are not from the Gusu Lan Sect now, you must be careful what you say!”

A disciple of the Moling Su Clan immediately stood up and said, “Our sect leader has long since left your Gusu Lan Clan. In what capacity do you speak to him like this?”

Lan Jingyi had long been full of resentment towards the Molingsu clan, and said loudly: “Your sect master has such a status now, and it’s not because he received the teachings of our Gusu, why he bites back and we can’t say more?”

In the Demon-Conquering Cave, the two groups of people began to glare at each other and taunt each other. Someone from the Moling Su family shouted: “There are so many disciples of the Gusu Lan family, how can they all be able to establish their own school? That’s too arrogant!”

Someone from Gusu Lan’s side immediately responded: “Who is that arrogant? I don’t know who’s playing the demon-repelling song is full of mistakes, and they don’t even realize it!”

As soon as this sentence came out, Wei Wuxian suddenly felt enlightened!

He said: “It’s not food or Feng Shui!”

Everyone was stunned, and Wei Wuxian added, “You have all forgotten that after the mountain, there was another thing that you all did.”

Lan SiZhui asked, “What’s the matter?”

Wei Wuxian said, “Kill the zombies.”

Ouyang Zizhen blurted out: “Ah, could it be like that in Yicheng, where the corpses had corpse poison powder in their bodies?! Dad, when you killed those ferocious zombies, did you spray any strange-colored powder from their bodies?”

Sect Master Ouyang said: “There is no powder, no!”

Ouyang Zi really refused to give up and said, “Then… what about the liquid?”

Jiang Cheng said coldly: “Okay. If there is any weird powder or liquid sprayed out after killing the walking corpse, we won’t be able to notice anything unusual.”

Ouyang Zi, who thought he had captured the mystery, blushed and scratched his head. His father quickly pulled his overly excited son down and sat down.Wei Wuxian said, “It is indeed related to killing the zombies. However, the problem is not with the zombies, but with the people who killed the zombies.”

He turned to Lan Qiren and said, “Senior Lan, I want to ask you a question.”

Lan Qiren glanced at Lan Wangji and said indifferently: “What questions do you have? You won’t ask him, but you want to ask me?”

Although Lan Qiren is pedantic, he is not reckless, and he has already sensed something fishy, so he listened patiently for so long, but his face is still very ugly. However, Wei Wuxian has been scorned by he since he was a child, and later he was scorned by countless people. He has long dismissed it. Thinking that this is the uncle who has the big Lan Wangji, he feels that there is nothing to be angry about. He touched his chin and smiled: “I’m not afraid of asking him in front of you.There are too many things, do you want to be angry?But since you asked me to ask him, I will ask.”

Lan Wangji said, “Yeah.”

Wei Wuxian said, “The Moling Su family is a family that separated from the Gusu Lan family, right.”

Lan Wangji said, “Yeah.”

Wei WuXian said, “Although they have separated, the Moling Su Clan’s unique skills are still ‘borrowed’ from the Gusu Lan Clan, right?”

Lan Wangji said, “Yes.”

Wei Wuxian said, “One of the Gusu Lan clan’s secret skills is the sound of breaking barriers, which has the effect of exorcising evil spirits. Among them, the seven-stringed guqin is the most profound and superb, so there are the most people who practice it. The Moling Su clan followed suit, and our family also has the most piano practitioners, right?”

Lan Wangji said, “Not bad.”

Wei Wuxian said, “Although the head of the Su family in Moling took his skills and left the Gusu Lan family to establish his own family, his own piano skills were not very good, and the students he taught often made many mistakes, right?”

Lan Wangji said calmly, “Yes.”

Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji looked at each other, said something to each other, and answered questions as if no one else was watching.More and more people gradually realized that they were not simply ridiculing Su She, but were trying to make something out of it, so they listened more and more seriously.Next, Wei Wuxian said slowly: “…In other words, even when they went to the mass graves to kill the walking corpses, there was something wrong with the melody in the war song played by the Moling Su clan. The Gusu Lan clan would still be surprised. They just thought it was because of their poor skills and misremembered the music score, but they didn’t pay attention to whether they accidentally played it wrong or deliberately played it wrong. Is that so?”

Upon hearing this last question, Su She’s pupils shrank, veins suddenly popped out in the hand that was pressing on the hilt of the sword, and the blade of the sword was quietly unsheathed by half an inch.Lan Wangji also raised his eyes at the same time, and both he and Wei Wuxian saw the faint understanding in each other’s eyes.

he said word for word: “That’s exactly it.”

Su She pulled out his sword with a smile. Wei Wuxian used two fingers to push the edge of the sword away and said with a smile, “What are you doing? Don’t forget, you have lost all your spiritual power now. Is it useful to threaten me like this?”

Su She raised his sword, neither stabbing nor drawing it back. He gritted his teeth and said, “What are you trying to insinuate over and over again at me?”

Wei Wuxian said, “Did I say it too implicitly, so you think I’m insinuating something? Then I’d better make it clearer. Everyone here lost their spiritual power because they all did the same thing. What happened? Kill the zombies. When you killed the zombies, the Su clan leader of the Moling Su clan came up with you. hePretending to be Yuqin exorcising demons, he has actually unknowingly tampered with a part of the war song into another melody that will cause people to temporarily lose their spiritual power.You are fighting bloody battles, and he is fighting with you on the surface, but he is secretly plotting…”

Su She said: “Spray people with blood!”

Wei WuXian said, “There are a lot of Gusu Lan clan’s piano cultivators here, right? When you went up the mountain just now, was there something wrong with the war music played by the Moling Su clan?”

Concerning this, the Gusu Lan Sect’s piano cultivators were the most qualified to speak, and they immediately said in unison: “That’s exactly what it is!”

Wei Wuxian added, “Sect Master Su knows that many people in the Gusu Lan Clan are full of disdain for you and the Moling Su Clan, so you take advantage of this disdain. Although evil music can harm people, it also requires the spiritual power of the performer. Of course, you alone cannot play with such power that nearly a thousand people lose their spiritual power, so you brought all the piano cultivators from the Moling Su Clan to let himWe are playing with you!Of the families present, only the Gusu Lan clan could possibly hear something wrong. However, they didn’t bother to pay attention to you.Even if they noticed that you played the wrong war song, they just thought that you were not good at learning and taught your disciples wrongly!”

Nie Huaisang was dumbfounded and said: “Is there really such an evil piece of music in the world that can make people lose their spiritual power?!”

Wei Wuxian said, “Why not? The sound of the piano can exorcise demons, so why can’t it summon evil? There is a collection of Japanese secret songs called “Ranpochao”, which contains evil songs circulated in Japan, including secret songs for murder. Why is it impossible for people to temporarily lose their spiritual power? Senior Lan Qiren is here. You ask him, is there this book in the forbidden library of Gusu Lan’s library?”

After calming down, Su She sneered: “Even if there is such a piece of music, I couldn’t enter the Forbidden Library when I was studying in the Gusu Lan Sect, and I had no chance to see it. Later, I never took a step into the Cloud Recesses, and I had never heard of this book! But you, who are so familiar with “Luan Po Chao” and are extremely close to Lord Hanguang, aren’t you more likely to come into contact with this book than me?”

Wei Wuxian smiled and said, “Who said you have to be able to enter the Forbidden Library? Isn’t it enough that your master can come in and out freely? The method of tampering with music scores was probably taught to you by him.”

The high-ranking person who can come and go freely in Yun Shen, Su She’s master, no need to say it explicitly, everyone knows that only Lian Fangzun is the master!

Wei WuXian said, “You have a good idea. You are arresting the children of each family and bringing so many people to the mass graves. The mantis is catching the cicada and the oriole is behind you. HeI used the excuse of being injured to avoid suspicion, and cooperated with you inside and outside. One used the evil song to defeat people with spiritual power, and the other used the Yinhu Talisman to control the evil corpses to surround the mountain.In the end, thousands of people were annihilated in my territory. If they say it was not my fault, no one will believe it.Really?You are not afraid of running into me. Anyway, Wei Wuxian is notorious, and with all the old and new hatreds rising, no one will listen to my excuses.It might make me go on a murderous rampage again, but this saves you from doing anything.”

Su She said: “It’s ridiculous. Lianfangzun is already the Immortal Governor who rules hundreds of families, and there is no need to fight for power. What’s the benefit of letting so many people come to die? It’s okay to slander me, but he has slandered Lianfangzun!”

Wei Wuxian said, “Since you swore that I was slandering you, do you dare to play the war song that Moling Su clan used to exorcise corpses and demons on their way up the mountain again in front of everyone now?”

All the Gusu Lan Sect’s piano cultivators are here. If Su She plays differently now than before, he will be found out immediately!

The people in the Fumo Cave quietly moved farther and farther away from the Moling Su clan, and unknowingly a large open space was created, isolating them in the middle.Wei Wuxian took the opportunity to say, “No? Okay, it doesn’t matter. Why don’t you take a look, what is this?”

he took out two yellowed papers from his arms and shook them, making it clear that they were music scores: “Do you think we really returned without success at Jinlin Terrace? In the secret room behind the bronze mirror of Fangfei Hall, we have found the two torn pages hidden by Jin Guangyao from Luanpo. Just show them to Senior Lan Qiren and let heFind out if it contains the melody you just played, and the truth will be revealed immediately!”

Su She sneered and said, “You lied. How do I know if this is a piece of music you wrote casually to slander me?”

Wei WuXian said, “Am I still carrying two pieces of music score with me all day long, ready to take them out at any time? Anyway, senior Lan Qiren will know at a glance whether he is lying.”

Su She originally suspected a scam, but when he saw Wei Wuxian’s sly smile and his determined tone, Lan Qiren took it and frowned, his heart tightening, and said, “Senior Lan, be careful of scams!” He reached out to grab the two pieces of paper.

At this moment, Bichen’s ice-blue sword light struck him.Su She unsheathed the sword on his waist to block. However, after blocking, he suddenly realized: He has been fooled!

Su She’s sword, named “Nanping”, was striking Bichen at this moment, and the sword light was flowing – it was clear that he was full of spiritual power!
