96: The truth about Caomiao Village, heading to Longshou Peak

Chapter 96: The Truth of Caomiao Village, Heading to Dragon Head Peak

Su Han nodded upon hearing this.

But Su Han did not answer Dao Xuan's question immediately, instead, he asked Dao Xuan in return.

"Sect Head."

"Do you remember how I joined the Qingyun Sect?"

Hearing Su Han's question, Dao Xuan was startled at first, but quickly nodded and said, "Naturally, I remember."

"Su Han, you were after the massacre of Caomiao Village..."

At this moment, Dao Xuan suddenly reacted, "You mean, there's a hidden truth behind the Caomiao Village incident?"

Su Han nodded, "As expected of Sect Head Dao Xuan, there is indeed a hidden truth."

Saying this.

Su Han sighed softly, "Actually, when I first came up the mountain, I lied."

"There was no other way, after all, the other party was a strong expert who could use the Divine Sword Lightning Leading True Skill. I presume his status in the Qingyun Sect wouldn't be low."

"And at that time, I had just arrived on the mountain and couldn't even guarantee my own life..."

"Naturally, I didn't dare to speak the truth."

"What?"

"Divine Sword Lightning Leading True Skill?!"

Dao Xuan and Shui Yue were instantly shocked upon hearing this, and quickly looked at Su Han, waiting for him to continue.

Su Han didn't keep them in suspense, "On the night of the Caomiao Village massacre, I didn't actually fall unconscious immediately."

"I saw Master Master Puzhi from Tianyin Temple fighting a person from the Demon Sect who used the Poison Blood Banner."

"As a result, halfway through the fight."

"The Demon Sect person saw that he was no match and actually used... the Divine Sword Lightning Leading True Skill!"

Dao Xuan and Shui Yue exchanged glances, "And then?"

"Did he slaughter the villagers of Caomiao Village?"

Su Han shook his head slightly, "After that, I wasn't clear. I was knocked unconscious by the shockwave of the battle."

Although Su Han knew who had massacred Caomiao Village.

But no matter what, Master Puzhi had shown kindness to Su Han by imparting knowledge, and could be considered Su Han's Master...

Now that the person was dead, Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu had no way to seek revenge.

Therefore, Su Han didn't need to specifically say it and tarnish his reputation even after death.

On the other side.

Dao Xuan and Shui Yue nodded, stopped asking questions, and fell into contemplation.

After all, in the Qingyun Sect, while the Divine Sword Lightning Leading True Skill was not a forbidden technique, it was still one of the four great sword skills and was not so easy to Master.

"Senior Brother Dao Xuan, as far as I know, among those in the Qingyun Sect who use the Divine Sword Lightning Leading True Skill best are Senior Brother Tian Buyi, Senior Brother Cang Song, and me..."

"Not Master."

Before Shui Yue could finish speaking, Su Han directly interrupted.

"That Demon Sect person was not a woman. Although it's possible he was disguised, I believe it absolutely wouldn't be Master."

Shui Yue's heart stirred upon hearing Su Han's explanation and his resolute attitude.

She rarely gave Su Han a gentle smile, "Don't worry, Su Han, it's definitely not me."

"Even for Master's sake, I would absolutely not bear to let you suffer even a little injury."

Hearing Shui Yue's words, Su Han slightly raised his head to look at Dao Xuan, seeing him deep in thought.

Su Han couldn't help but gently take Shui Yue's fair hand where Dao Xuan couldn't see, and squeezed it.

Instantly, a blush appeared on Shui Yue's face, and at the same time, she quickly pulled her hand away from Su Han.

She turned her head away, not daring to look at Su Han.

At this moment, Shui Yue's heart was pounding nervously. After all, she was making small gestures with her Disciple right in front of Senior Brother Dao Xuan, the Sect Head.

But Shui Yue also inexplicably felt a hint of...

Excitement?

"Bah, bah, bah~"

"Shui Yue, do you have no sense of shame? How can you feel like this..."

Shui Yue thought silently with a red face.

And just as Shui Yue felt she was 'bad' for having such shameless thoughts.

Dao Xuan finally snapped out of his contemplation and looked up at Su Han.

"Su Han, can you be sure who that person was?"

Su Han shook his head, "I can't be sure who that person was. He was masked that day, but I feel he wasn't like Shibo Tian Buyi."

"I had contact with Shibo Tian Buyi on Da Zhu Peak before."

"I could clearly feel that Shibo Tian Buyi's aura was different from that person's."

Dao Xuan heard this, "Since it's not Tian Buyi, then if nothing unexpected..."

"...it should be Junior Brother Cang Song."

Dao Xuan's tone at this moment held some sorrow.

But, he had roughly understood why Cang Song would betray the Qingyun Sect.

After all, Cang Song and Wan Jianyi had been very close, and then Wan Jianyi...

"Alas..."

Thinking of this, Dao Xuan sighed slightly.

Despite being unwilling to admit it, Cang Song was that Demon Sect spy.

But Dao Xuan still stood up and said to Su Han and Shui Yue, "Junior Sister, Su Han, come with me to Dragon Head Peak."

"Yes!"

........

........

........

Qingyun Sect, Dragon Head Peak.

As soon as Dao Xuan, Shui Yue, and Su Han stepped onto the Dragon Head Peak mountain range, they attracted the curious gazes of many Dragon Head Peak Disciples.

They whispered among themselves, guessing what Sect Head Dao Xuan and Shishu Shui Yue had brought Su Han here for.

Dao Xuan's face was solemn as he said to the Disciple guarding the gate, "Go and tell Junior Brother Cang Song to come see me."

"Yes."

Although that Disciple was confused, he didn't dare to ask more and quickly ran off to relay the message.

Dao Xuan walked directly towards the Back Mountain, with Su Han and Shui Yue following closely behind.

The mountain forest was quiet, only the sound of their footsteps rustled, and the atmosphere felt particularly oppressive.

Along the way, Dao Xuan sighed softly from time to time.

Shui Yue frowned slightly, her eyes also revealing a hint of heaviness.

Before long, they arrived at a secluded spot in the Back Mountain.

It was shaded by green trees and lush with flowers and plants, yet it was permeated with an inexplicable sense of desolation.

Dao Xuan stopped and turned to Su Han and Shui Yue, saying, "Wait here for Junior Brother Cang Song."

"This matter is of great importance, we must handle it cautiously."

"Moreover, family shame should not be spread outside..."

Su Han and Shui Yue nodded in agreement.

Approximately the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

Cang Song, the Head Seat of Dragon Head Peak, hurried over.

He wasn't surprised to see Dao Xuan, but a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes when he saw Su Han and Shui Yue.

But soon, he regained his composure.

"Head Disciple Brother, may I know why you have summoned me?" Cang Song asked.

Dao Xuan gazed at Cang Song, his eyes deep and complex, and slowly said, "Junior Brother Cang Song, regarding the matter of Caomiao Village, there are some questions I would like to discuss with you again."

Cang Song's heart tightened, but his expression remained unchanged.

"The matter of Caomiao Village?"

"Why does Senior Brother suddenly bring this up?"

Dao Xuan sighed slightly, "Today, some new clues emerged."

"It is said that the demon who fought against Master Puzhi could use the Divine Sword Lightning Leading True Skill!"

Cang Song's face changed slightly, but he quickly hid it.

"Senior Brother is joking. How could I be related to the Caomiao Village incident?"

"Although I can use the Divine Sword Lightning Leading True Skill, you can't just suspect me based on that, can you?"

Dao Xuan shook his head, "Junior Brother, I don't want to believe it either, but many signs indicate..."

"We must thoroughly investigate this matter, as it concerns the reputation and safety of the Qingyun Sect."

Saying this, Dao Xuan looked around, "This place is quiet, suitable for us to talk privately and avoid causing unnecessary panic."

"If there is truly a hidden truth, we should resolve it internally and not let this matter become a scandal for the Qingyun Sect known to too many Disciples."

Cang Song looked at Dao Xuan, then at Shui Yue and Su Han.

"Heh heh!"

"Family shame should not be spread outside?"

Cang Song was too lazy to pretend anymore. After all, since Dao Xuan had come in person, he was almost certainly confirmed.

Thinking of this.

Cang Song took a deep breath.

"Dao Xuan, you hypocrite, put away that sanctimonious face of yours, it's truly disgusting!"
