Man Niang, with trembling hands, walked to Gu Qingyao. She held his face in her hands and called out in a trembling voice:

"Qingyao..., Qing, Qingyao, wake up! I...I didn't mean it..."

"Qingyao...I was wrong..."

"Ah! Ah! Ah! What have I done? Wuuuu, I deserve to die. I am the one who deserves to die..."

Manniang saw Gu Qingyao holding Fu Yiren's ID card in his hand.

"You can't get it, and I can't get it either!"

"You wish you had nothing to do with me."

"You hate me so much..."

"you deserve it!"

"Hahahahaha."

Someone was flying on a sword in the distance. Manniang noticed it and immediately fled on the sword without a trace. When Fu Qian arrived, Manniang had disappeared, leaving only Gu Qingyao covered in blood.

In the past few days, while Tonglin was not in the Demon Realm, he went to the Demon Realm to rescue his parents. Just after he settled them in the East China Sea, he noticed the information sent back by the wax figure before his death. He felt it was a scam, so he rushed over without stopping, and saw such a tragic scene.

He first used the soul-locking bag to collect the soul of his master Gu Qingyao. Gu Jianshenwu then transmitted the images he had recorded to Fu Qian. After knowing the whole story, Fu Qian was furious!

In the previous life, I only knew that my master died tragically for no reason and his body was brought back by Manniang, but I didn't know who the murderer was! It turned out to be her! This crime is simply unforgivable!

Fu Qian took his master's body to his mother. Fu Yiren was heartbroken when she saw Gu Qingyao's body. She and her husband decided to use the soul stone to nourish Gu Qingyao's soul, and when the time was right, they would use a formation to attach his soul to Fu Yiren's sword.

With the sword of the soul, if you practice well, after reaching a certain level, you can transform into a human.

It also fulfilled his wish to stay with Fu Yiren.

Inside the Tianshan Hall, the young disciple guarding the Soul Jade Hall crawled and found Chu Wan Ning!

"Master! It's bad! The Master's soul has been shattered!"

He burst into tears, he had never experienced anything so big.

"What! Take me there!"

Chu Wan Ning was frightened by what he said and rushed to the Soul Jade Palace like a gust of wind.

When she saw Gu Qingyao's soul jade, she had to accept the reality.

She told her young disciple not to make it public for the time being. Although she had become the head of the sect, her cultivation was not deep, and it was inevitable that someone would take advantage of the situation in the panic.

She sent a message to Fu Qian tentatively.

"Fu Qian, something happened to Sect Leader Gu, did you know?"

"Yes, I know. Don't panic. Keep it a secret for now. I'll be there soon."

Chu Wan Ning had no choice but to control her temper and deal with the sect affairs first.

At this time, Guo Min'er took out a festive red scroll and handed it to Chu Wan Ning:

"Master Chu, please look at this scroll. It says that Gongsun Mo asked to marry Gu Alu. This has been going on for a while, but the previous master did not respond."

Chu Wanning raised her head from the pile of scrolls and said with a tired face:

"What? I've never heard Master mention that. Check the date! Don't miss it!!"

"On the sixth day of this month, come and give me gifts!"

Guo Min'er read it word by word, then thought for a moment and said:

"Isn't that tomorrow?"

"What??? Come and give me the gift tomorrow! It's so urgent!"

"I'll call Xiaoyu to help."

Chu Wan Ning sent a message to Xiao Yu, and Xiao Yu immediately went to do the work for Chu Wan Ning.

Listen to Xiaoyu's voice transmission:

"Gu Alu has woken up, but her mental state is not good and she is in a trance all day long."

"I also heard that Manniang came back covered in blood and looked frightened."

Chu Wan Ning pondered for a moment. Didn't Manniang chase Master Gu to the demon world? Why did she come back covered in blood, while Master Gu's soul was shattered?

She decided to go there in person to get the feel for the situation. Besides, as Gu Alu's mother, Man Niang could decide whether the marriage would take place or not.

"The first sect leader has arrived."

Xianshu Peak was deserted and not as lively as before. Not many disciples of Xianshu Peak were on the mountain today. They heard that Manniang had returned covered in blood. Perhaps the disciples were afraid that she would be moody and hurt innocent people, so they all left early.

Manniang had already changed her clothes and was looking at the plum blossoms in the yard.

"Master Man, did you gain anything by following the Sect Master out?"

"No. I lost him."

Manniang's eyes unconsciously looked towards the ground, and even her breathing pace became faster.

"When Wan Ning was reviewing the sect's government affairs today, she found Gu A'lu's engagement letter. It was Gongsun Mo who proposed the marriage. The date is tomorrow, but Sect Leader Gu did not clearly indicate whether it was approved or not. As Gu A'lu's mother, do you agree? If not, I will reject it."

"I agree."

Manniang answered without thinking.

Chu Wan Ning was somewhat caught off guard. She replied:

"Have you thought it through?"

"I've thought it through."

Man Niang said nothing more and turned back to the house.

Although Chu Wan Ning felt that Gongsun Mo was not very reliable, since Manniang had no objection, she could only follow the procedure.

By the evening, Guo Min'er had almost finished sorting the scrolls, and Chu Wan Ning asked her to go back and rest.

Chu Wan Ning was sitting alone at the desk where Gu Qingyao used to sit.

I was thinking to myself, Master is such a good person, yet something happened to him. The shattered soul means that this person is dead.

How could Master die?

He is the leader of the number one sect in the world!

Chu Wan Ning was puzzled and finally, she started to meditate and practice.

With the blessing of the Hunyuan Pearl, Chu Wan Ning's cultivation speed was at its peak. Even if she didn't meditate, her golden elixir was constantly absorbing spiritual energy. Now she was in the middle and late stage of the golden elixir. After a few more days of cultivation, she would be able to transcend the tribulation.

As soon as she started meditating, her mind became highly alert. When she heard a sound at the door, Chu Wan Ning opened her eyes. Someone was indeed coming, but he was masked and wearing clothes that were not from the Tianshan Sect.

"Wan Ning."

The familiar voice made Chu Wan Ning ecstatic! Fu Qian took off his mask, revealing Chu Wan Ning's familiar face. She ran over and hugged him tightly!

"That's great, you're okay. You know what? When your wax figure was stabbed, I was so scared that my heart almost jumped out of my chest."

Fu Qian smiled and nodded, but then seemed to be hesitant to talk.

Chu Wan Ning understood what he meant.

"Master is gone, isn't he?"

Chu Wan Ning said dejectedly, tears as big as beans streaming down her cheeks.

Fu Qian nodded and wiped away her tears.

"But the soul is still there. My parents have nurtured the master's soul."

There was a light in Chu Wan Ning's eyes.

"Great, Fu Qian!"

"Do you know who the murderer is?"

Chu Wan Ning asked.

"Mother."

When Fu Qian mentioned Man Niang, his face was full of seriousness.

Chu Wan Ning looked at Fu Qian in disbelief. How could this be possible!

"Why is it Manniang?"

"It was him. He came to avenge Master and attacked him from behind. He stabbed him more than a dozen times, and every stab was fatal!"

Fu Qian clenched his fists in anger.
