Questioning Heaven, Desiring the Way
Chapter 106 – Being Unscrupulous
“Spit it out! What have you done to Shuang’er!” The young man from the Youthful Clarity Sect brandished his sword. His powerful sword qi rained down continuously, covering the entire area around Gu Suihan and attacking Gu Suihan’s vital points.
Gu Suihan exerted some strength in his feet and moved back quickly but elegantly. He continued teasing his opponent, “Why don’t you make a guess? To give you a hint, I have a thing for girls her age.” As he spoke, the left hand he had hidden in his sleeve secretly made a hand seal, and he curled his fingers to gather his energy together.
“You’re asking for it!” The young man’s facial expression was contorted as he swung his sword in a beautiful arc, aiming it straight for the area between Gu Suihan’s brows like a rocket shooting into the sky.
“Hallucinations Appear!” Gu Suihan took a step forward diagonally so that the sword would not stab into his face. But just before the young man’s sword stabbed into his shoulder, Gu Suihan tapped the air with his left hand that he had hidden in his sleeve. Illusions instantly formed just a few feet away.
“Illusions!” The young man was overcome with hatred, but he suddenly felt dizzy as Gu Suihan’s face disappeared. Instead, he saw Shuang’er’s pained expression, as his sword stabbed deep into her chest.
“Shuang’er! Are you alright?” The young man knew that what he was seeing was a hallucination created by Gu Suihan, but he couldn’t help but utter these words when he saw how much pain the young lady was in. Her convulsing body and deathly pale face made him unable to move the sword in his hand.
“What a pity. Why did you cultivate in the sword when you don’t have an immovable spirit?” Gu Suihan said mockingly with a quiet sigh. Questioning Heaven was like a venomous snake that had caught its prey, silently stabbing into the dantian of the young man who was still smiling foolishly in a daze. The blade went right through the area where the young man’s qi was stored and pierced his spiritual root in his spinal cord.
The young man could only see Shuang’er reaching out to him with trembling hands, her large eyes staring adoringly at him as though she was about to touch his face. But when she was only half a foot away, she suddenly vomited a huge mouthful of blood mixed in with bits of internal organs. The light in her eyes went out instantly and turned into a lifeless gray.
“Shuang’er!” His hands trembled, and he let go of his sword, grabbing the illusion of Shuang’er by the shoulders and slowly sinking to his knees. But the young lady in front of him suddenly shattered into a thousand pieces as though she were made from glass, blown away by the wind and sparkling brightly in the sun.
“AUGHHHH! These hallucinations!!” The young man no longer had any strength to stand. The sword in front of him was still vibrating, but he did not have the energy to pick it up anymore. The wound in his abdomen was as large as a fist. Blood and bits of his internal organs gushed out from the wound, and he could feel his qi dissipating rapidly.
“What…what did you do to her?” asked the young man with a hopeful look on his face as he tugged at Gu Suihan’s hem, even though he knew he was definitely going to die.
“Why don’t you make a guess?” Gu Suihan had no pity for the young man as he used the flat side of his sword to pat the young man’s face. The blade then sliced through the young man’s neck quickly, sealing in his look of hatred forever.
Gu Suihan didn’t care about how the others were doing. He stretched his long, fair fingers out to grab the young man’s severed head. A golden glow burst out of his fingertips like claws and stabbed into the lifeless skull to absorb the young man’s soul. Gu Suihan had a look of satisfaction as the soul nourished his body.
“All of you are so slow,” muttered Gu Suihan as he glared at the rest of the disciples who were still fighting. He turned and walked towards the small pile of dead bodies that had failed to survive this battle.
A few soft spurting sounds could be heard as Gu Suihan absorbed their souls. The sensation was as refreshing as eating ice in the hot summer, and he had a relaxed expression on his face. He leaned against a tree, and his sword remained by his feet. He clearly had no intention of helping the rest to fight.
Two of the Seven Kill Sect disciples who had defeated their opponents did not bother to help their fellow disciples either. They quietly swallowed some pills and tended to their wounds while casting glances at Gu Suihan from time to time. A look of fear flashed in their eyes.
“Junior brother!” Another disciple noticed the cruel thing that Gu Suihan had just done to that young man from the Youthful Clarity Sect and became enraged as he yelled at Gu Suihan with bulging eyes. He gave up fighting his opponent as his sword left his hands with great determination and flew straight for Gu Suihan instead.
Everywhere that the sword passed through minced the falling leaves and caused the soil to explode, leaving a deep trough in the ground. The blade gave off a murderous aura as it carried its owner’s will to kill Gu Suihan and reached Gu Suihan in seconds.
“Ghostly Shadow Seven Stars, Move Like an Apparition!” Gu Suihan was not bothered by the attack at all. He raised his long fingers and flicked them accurately on the flat side of the sword to push it off course, thereby dodging the fatal attack from this older Youthful Clarity Sect disciple very easily.
Pfft! That senior’s opponent grinned as he took the chance to stab the senior in the back. It didn’t take him long to tear the Youthful Clarity Sect disciple to pieces.
“Ten Directions!” shouted the Wonderful Sound Sect disciple as her fair palm lightly slapped away her opponent’s attack. She moved nearly 50 meters away as quickly as lightning and held up her zither horizontally in front of her. Her lips were pursed, and there was a look of determination on her face.
The movement of the zither strings cut her fingers and caused them to bleed, but she did not seem to be bothered by the bleeding. The wind scattered her blood everywhere as she continued playing the zither, filling the air with bold and murderous melodies.
The countless sounds of knives filled the skies like sword qi, and she made each drop of blood from her fingers land on those knives. The blood gleamed brightly as it coordinated perfectly with the continuous melodies of the zither. A murderous wave surged toward the Seven Kill Sect disciple she was fighting like a flood.
The clinking of metal-on-metal collision accompanied the melodious music of the zither. That Seven Kill Sect disciples were turned into minced meat almost instantly, becoming one with the faint bloodied mist in the air.
But those knives did not stop there. They proceeded to fly toward the two Seven Kill Sect disciples who were tending to their wounds by the side.
“How dare you!” The two disciples had never let their guard down, so they instantly sensed the sound of those knives coming for them. The knives were like a wave that was about to crash upon them in seconds, while the music continued to strike their eardrums without pausing at all, making them feel somewhat disoriented.
“Full Core of Fiendish Qi!”
“Five Dragons Attack the Sky!”
Their heads hurt terribly, and their vision was blurry, but the two disciples instinctively made a counterattack as quickly as they could.
But a second later, they both let out an angry shout, “Who’s there?!” The searing pain they felt in their backs and the blood in their mouths horrified them.
“Let your junior brother send you on your way!” a gentle yet unfeeling voice rang in their ears. Their pupils constricted as they tried their best to turn their heads to look.
PFFT! Gu Suihan pulled back his bloodied palms that had a bit of flesh caught in his nails, then stabbed his fingers into the heads of the two Seven Kill Sect disciples to consume their souls even as the Wonderful Sound Sect disciple watched on in horror.
“You…you…” The young woman had never seen a cultivator this ruthless before. She trembled as she took a few steps back like a frightened deer and stared fearfully at the young man, who seemed more like a demon at this point.
“Do you know who Wan Xin is?” said Gu Suihan with a gentle smile as he used a simple spell to create water to wash off all the blood on his hands before looking at the rest of the disciples, who had stopped fighting and were looking warily at him.
“You know Senior Wan Xin…AHH!” Before she could finish her sentence, she suddenly let out a scream and stumbled as she fell to the ground. She turned to look hatefully at the young man with a gentle smile but murderous eyes who had suddenly appeared behind her and attacked her.
“How could you be so evil? The Seven Kill Sect is a major sect, after all.” The young woman wiped away the blood on her lips and used all her energy to place her seven-string zither in front of her. She pressed a finger gently on the string and got ready to flick a string to attack Gu Suihan.
“For this competition, five of the Peak Leaders of the Seven Kill Sect have split their souls, and they’re somewhere in here now. So what if you’re from Wonderful Sound Sect or the Ethereal Court? You’re all going to die miserably like you’re made from nothing but clay.”
Gu Suihan chuckled, and Questioning Heaven flew out of its sheath. The violent and murderous qi it gave off instantly turned the surroundings into a battlefield strewn with blood and severed limbs.
“Burn the Zither to Cook the Crane!” called out the young woman as she raised her wrist to look at her precious intricately carved ancient seven-string zither. A tear came to her eye, and she felt like her heart was bleeding.
But the pain in her heart swiftly turned into resolve. She clasped her palms into a hand seal and slammed it onto her ringing zither before flinging the entire instrument at Gu Suihan.
“You’re Gu Suihan! I know who you are! I will be back to take revenge!” The young woman glowered spitefully at the smiling Gu Suihan. With one thought, the zither instantly exploded mid-air.
Gu Suihan was slightly surprised by this move, and he turned his sword qi into a thin screen to deflect the desperate but fierce attack by the young woman. That was enough for the young woman to get away.
She wasted no time in pasting a bunch of talismans on herself, unleashed her spiritual energy, bit her tongue, and sprayed three mouthfuls of blood out to create a thin layer of bloodied mist around her. The mist covered her body, and she disappeared into thin air instantly.
“Oh, I almost forgot about the three of you,” said Gu Suihan with a chuckle as he turned to smile at the last three disciples standing.
