Chapter 297: A Just Cause
If this matter is related to Liu Yu...
Even if Young Master Gu didn't come to invite her, Jiang Lingyun still needed to understand the cause and effect. After all, she had come all the way to this remote and impoverished place on the edge of the Eastern Frontier just for this matter.
Liu Yu is highly likely to bear the karma of the "Zhouyin Destiny Star," and according to the prophecy of the Wentian Divine Palace, the seven destiny stars are related to the secret of breaking through to the "Immortal Rank."
These seven beings who bear the consequences of karma must not be allowed to have any problems, no matter what!
but.
Jiang Lingyun thought about it more deeply.
She had suspected before that this young master Gu Heng was not just a "hermit," but most likely a "protector" chosen by Heaven to ensure that the person who bears the karma of the destiny star would not make mistakes on their path.
However, Gu Heng himself may not even know this.
He felt that this was just a coincidence, nothing more than helping someone in need.
But in fact.
Perhaps Gu Heng's every move was already predetermined by fate.
Thinking about it this way...
Isn't Jiang Lingyun the same?
Jiang Lingyun didn't believe in coincidences. At least in the eyes of a strong person like her, so-called coincidences were actually determined by fate.
Whether she admits it or not.
I've already been dragged into this.
That's good, isn't it? After living for so long, if you can still encounter some interesting things, that's not bad either. Jiang Lingyun doesn't want to spend her life in boredom.
Jiang Lingyun quickly returned to normal.
For some reason, looking at her eyes, which were now sparkling, Gu Heng felt that Sect Leader Jiang seemed inexplicably excited, as if she had encountered something interesting.
I don't know what's so interesting about it.
"Well, if Sect Leader Jiang finds it difficult, you can just say so. It's fine if we don't do it."
Gu Heng said calmly.
Seeing her so hesitant and unresponsive, Gu Heng thought she was going to change her mind at the last minute.
"Difficult to do?"
Jiang Lingyun scoffed, "That's a bit of a joke."
"Although I never boast, in my eyes, the Valley Master of Thousand Sound Valley is nothing more than a guy who can be dealt with in three or four sword strikes."
In the eyes of a Saintly cultivator, all those below the Saintly level are naturally harmless ants. However, even among Saints, the difference between each minor realm, though not as vast as an insurmountable chasm, is still not to be underestimated.
Jiang Lingyun has already reached the seventh level of the Supreme Saint realm, and has almost reached the pinnacle of swordsmanship. Her understanding of both power and rules far surpasses that of others.
There is no one in the world qualified to be her rival.
At most, no more than five.
Among the human race, only the Central Plains Human Emperor Xuanyuan Wuji and the Northern Desert General Zhenyuan can fight her to a standstill.
Besides humans, even the oldest monsters of the ancient dragon and phoenix races could fight her to a standstill.
The Demon King of the Demon Realm could also be considered an opponent.
Apart from these five, it can be said that no one in the world can withstand Jiang Lingyun's sword strikes. Of course, Gu Heng in front of her is an exception, because even Jiang Lingyun herself cannot see through his cultivation level...
The Valley Master of Qianyin Valley, Yu Quzi, is quite a figure in the Eastern Frontier. After all, he is the leader of a major extraordinary force, and Jiang Lingyun has heard of Yu Quzi's reputation.
but.
In terms of a clash of strength...
Jiang Lingyun wouldn't take him seriously at all.
The difference between the third and seventh levels of the Supreme Saint realm is so vast that Yu Quzi can only hope to bridge it with a supreme celestial treasure!
She only needs to casually unleash a few sword strikes, and that guy will probably be kneeling down.
However, she needed to carefully consider the matter of killing Yu Yinzi.
"Young Master Gu, I think you came to see me because you believe that since I killed Yu Yinzi, Yu Quzi will be afraid of my strength and therefore won't dare to seek revenge, right?"
Jiang Lingyun looked at Gu Heng, who nodded and readily admitted it.
Anyway, they're asking her to kill someone.
Gu Heng certainly didn't want to hide anything, at least not to let Sect Leader Jiang think that he had ulterior motives.
The Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Sect should be more powerful than the Thousand Sounds Valley.
Therefore, if Jiang Lingyun, the "Number One in the World," were to kill Yu Yinzi, Yu Yinzi's father probably wouldn't dare to seek revenge against her for killing his son.
"In that case, I don't care about gaining a bad reputation myself, but I am the leader of the number one sword sect in the world, and I cannot let the sect bear any dirty reputation because of this."
Jiang Lingyun looked troubled.
after all……
Jiang Lingyun's identity is that of the Sect Master of the Myriad Swords Immortal Sect. She must consider the sect's interests. The Myriad Swords Immortal Sect and the Thousand Sound Valley have no enmity whatsoever. If she were to kill Yu Yinzi, Yu Quzi would lose such a precious bloodline and would surely go mad!
Moreover, this would also damage her reputation. Although Jiang Lingyun didn't care much about her reputation, she was the head of a sect, and whatever she did would affect the sect.
Her master entrusted her with a vast legacy.
Jiang Lingyun must not be treated lightly.
"So Sect Leader Jiang had this in mind. I hadn't thought it through properly, and I was a bit presumptuous..."
Gu Heng was also in a dilemma.
He truly hadn't expected that Jiang Lingyun would have such concerns when he suggested killing Yu Yinzi. Of course, the sect's reputation must be very important to her.
Jiang Lingyun wanted to avoid affecting the sect's reputation...
There must be a "just cause" for it!
