Chapter 376: Spit Before Leaving
Chapter 376: Spit Before Leaving
Upon hearing a sudden voice in the mourning hall, Long Yan was immediately startled.
Following the sound, she saw Miao Yin dressed in white clothes and wearing a white headband.
Miao Yin had already learned of Miao Qin's death, so she changed into mourning clothes.
Moreover, it was not just for mourning Miao Qin, but also for mourning the Celestial Melody Pavilion.
Seeing that it was Miao Yin, Long Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
Although she and Miao Yin were rivals in love, she was not afraid of Miao Yin harming her.
However, upon hearing what Miao Yin had just said, Long Yan's heart tightened.
"What did you say? Do you know the truth?"
"That's right."
Miao Yin said, slowly walking to Long Yi's coffin. Through the transparent ice coffin, she could still see Long Yi's peaceful appearance.
When Long Yi died, he certainly didn't look peaceful, but the mortician had adjusted his expression a bit, making it look much better.
One couldn't bury the deceased with resentment. The funeral culture in the Immortal Cultivation World was not much different from the mortal world.
Seeing this face, Miao Yin thought of what Hong Li had described, thought of the tragic scene at the Celestial Melody Pavilion, and thought of Miao Qin sacrificing herself.
Long Yan didn't notice Miao Yin's anger. She thought Miao Yin had come to pay her respects and even stepped aside.
Unexpectedly, Miao Yin kicked the coffin board away with one foot, still not venting her anger.
He-tui!
Miao Yin had never done such a disgusting act in her life. As a cultivator, she naturally didn't need to spit.
But for the sake of her anger, one spit was not enough.
Long Yan was stunned.
She hadn't expected Miao Yin to do this. When she realized it, she became furious.
The deceased was important, and Miao Yin was humiliating her father's body on top of the mourning hall.
"What are you doing!"
Long Yan rushed over, wanting to punch Miao Yin. Miao Yin easily dodged, but she didn't fight back. She just coldly said, "This is the truth I mentioned. Did you really think your father was a good person?
Do you know what he did?"
Long Yan was instantly stunned.
Miao Yin's icy voice made her anger subside a little, and she gradually regained some rationality.
She knew in her heart that Miao Yin was not a reckless person. If she didn't hate Long Yi so much, how could she have such vulgar behavior?
"Do you know why there have been Dao Integration cultivators from the Dragon Transformation Palace generation after generation? Do you think that in these thousands of years, only your Long Family can nurture geniuses?"
"This is a secret technique of the Long Family, and you all know it."
Long Yan tried to argue, but Miao Yin became even angrier at her words. "Huh, it's just a scam! If the Long Family really had that kind of secret technique, how could they only rank at the bottom in the Western State?
The truth is that the Long Family set up a luck formation, sealing off all the luck in the Coiling Dragon River region and channeling it all to the Long Family. The Long Family has Dao Integration generation after generation, while any living being born in the Coiling Dragon River region cannot break through the Divine Ability Realm."
"How is that possible..."
Long Yan wanted to refute, but she found that the facts seemed to be true.
In recent years, apart from the Long Family, no Dao Integration cultivators from the Dragon River region had appeared.
"And what's even more infuriating is not that your Long Family is seizing luck, but that seizing luck is just one part of the conspiracy.
The Long Family's true goal is to seize the true dragon treasure."
When the Dragon Pearl appeared, Hong Li, who had dragon blood, sensed it and naturally knew it was the true dragon treasure.
So it wasn't difficult to guess Long Yi's goal.
The Long Family may have obtained the true dragon treasure before, probably knowing more secrets about it, so they set up this scheme.
"For the sake of his own power, he devoured the luck of a region. To avoid bearing the consequences, he deliberately released the news, letting others destroy the spiritual veins, while he tried to seize the treasure attracted by the shattered spiritual veins.
However, that treasure has already recognized its master. Otherwise, Zhang Chi wouldn't have stood up to stop your father. And do you know that you are not a Dao Integration cultivator, but a Transcending Tribulation cultivator?
To hide his own cultivation level, he killed everyone present and falsely claimed that Zhang Chi did it.
Isn't such a person deserving of death?"
"No, this is impossible!"
Long Yan couldn't accept what Miao Yin said.
"Are these just your speculations? Do you have any evidence?"
Without concrete evidence, she didn't believe it!
"Why do you believe that Zhang Chi killed your father based on someone else's speculation, but when I say that your father killed someone, you ask me for evidence? Is this the way of the Long Family?
I thought you would be different from others."
Miao Yin looked at Long Yan with disappointment in her eyes, even with a hint of killing intent.
She had cut off all external sounds, which was why there had been so much commotion but no one came to check the situation.
"Do you want to kill me?"
"I not only want to kill you, but also make the Dragon Transformation Palace bury the Celestial Melody Pavilion. Your Dragon Transformation Palace has enjoyed luck for thousands of years, and now it's time to pay back."
Miao Yin took out her quiver.
As a Divine Ability cultivator, it was actually quite simple for her to kill Long Yan, a Divine Soul cultivator. But she didn't want to cause too much commotion.
Killing Long Yan with a quiver would also reduce her guilt.
"Who told you all this?"
Long Yan didn't attempt to resist; she was still seeking the truth.
Miao Yin aimed the arrow at Long Yan and said coldly, "It was the Red Carp Monster King. She and my aunt conspired to destroy all the spiritual veins. Now, she has already broken through to become a Monster Sovereign."
Miao Yin had taken care of Hong Li, and in order to prove that the luck formation was real, she had specifically mentioned her condition.
The shackles had been removed, and she could break her vows.
In fact, not only Hong Li, but Miao Yin also had a faint sense of it.
Her cultivation hadn't reached the level where she could break through, but cultivators were very sensitive to changes in themselves.
When the shackles were still there, she might not have noticed because they had been there for years and she had gotten used to them.
But when the shackles disappeared, she was a talented person and naturally quickly sensed the change.
She didn't know the reason before, but when Hong Li mentioned it, she understood.
Bringing up Hong Li was just to prove it to Long Yan.
One example was not enough, so she used herself as another example.
At first, Long Yan didn't believe it, but her intuition told her that Miao Yin wasn't lying.
Her reason also told her that Miao Yin didn't seem like a liar.
Could it be that in the end, the evil person was actually Long Yi?
Did he bring his own demise upon himself?
Long Yan found it difficult to accept for a while, kneeling on the ground, at a loss.
If her father was righteous and others were evil, she naturally had to avenge her father.
But if her father was evil, did she really think he deserved to die?
That should be the case, but he was her own father!
How could she say such words?
Miao Qin's arrow was also aimed at her, and Long Yan had no thoughts of dodging. Her eyes were filled with pain, and she didn't know what she should do.
What is right and what is wrong?
What should she do?
Long Yan pulled her hair for a long time, and finally, her hands fell weakly.
She looked at Miao Yin and the quiver in her hand, suddenly feeling that death might be the best outcome.
The Long Family owed Dragon River so much, and with their decline, they had already received punishment.
She no longer needed to consider whether she should avenge her father or face Zhang Chi.
"If you want to kill me, go ahead, but I hope you spare the others in the Dragon Transformation Palace. They don't know about the luck formation and are innocent."
Miao Yin's hand holding the quiver trembled slightly.
She should have killed Long Yan directly, but considering their past friendship and Long Yan's character, she couldn't bring herself to do it at that moment.
"I'll give you three days to disband the Dragon Transformation Palace. After three days, the hunt begins!" (End of this chapter)
