In his later years, he was backstabbed by his third wife, and he awakened the Wei Xiaobao system

Chapter 69: The Fall of the Sect Leader

Luoyun Sect, in the forbidden area in the back mountain.

Sect leader Gu Hanshan was lying on a crimson jade bed, the spiritual energy around him was constantly dissipating, his face was pale, and he was barely breathing.

The whole person looked lifeless and was already on his deathbed.

His Nascent Soul was already shattered, and he was only able to hold on thanks to years of cultivation and a high-quality life-extending elixir.

But both Gu Hanshan himself and the others present knew very well that this was just a way to delay time.

Gu Hanshan's injuries were too severe, and he should have died on the way. It was a miracle that he could hold on and return to the sect.

Wanting to stay alive is already a luxury.

Ning Qingshuang, Great Elder Qi Yuanshan and others, alchemist Meng Lin, and two direct disciples Li Qingfeng and Han Yinyue were all standing beside the red jade bed.

Everyone looked heavy and sad.

Ning Qingshuang even lay on the side, tightly holding Gu Hanshan's hand, her eyes blurred with tears, sobbing silently.

His eyes were full of reluctance.

Han Yinyue's eyes were red and she bit her lips tightly, trying her best to prevent her tears from flowing.

"Ugh!"

Meng Lin sighed, with a pill in his hand.

"This is the last life-saving pill, but it can only delay the Sect Master's injury. It is ultimately powerless to save him."

Ning Qingshuang quickly took the pill and put it into Gu Hanshan's mouth.

Gu Hanshan, who was already unable to speak, seemed to have more strength after taking the pill.

The spirit in his eyes also recovered a little.

"Husband, you must hold on!"

Ning Qingshuang's voice was choked with sobs. She knew there was no hope, but she still hoped that one last miracle would happen.

Gu Hanshan breathed rapidly and forced a smile.

"It doesn't matter if I die... I've already severely damaged Fan Xingzhou... Although he didn't die, he has become a cripple."

"No matter how difficult it is... it threatens the sect."

There was a look of relief in Gu Hanshan's eyes.

This was the last thing he did for the sect.

He severely injured Fan Xingzhou and turned him into a cripple, which also eliminated a major threat for Luoyun Sect.

"But your injuries, Sect Master... Alas, why have you come to this?"

The great elder Qi Yuanshan shook his head and sighed.

He felt it wasn't worth it.

Gu Hanshan is such an important person as the leader of the sect that he shouldn’t die together with the Brahma Boat even for the sake of the sect.

"As the sect leader...I should protect the sect from wind and rain."

Gu Hanshan looked at the people present, his eyes passing over them one by one.

"The Sect Master can die, but as long as the Sect can continue, everything... is worth it."

Although his voice was weak, his words were particularly firm.

It echoed in everyone's ears.

I was deeply touched!

Until this moment, Gu Hanshan was still thinking about the sect.

He didn't care too much about his own life.

The most important thing for a sect is not the sect leader, but the continuation of the sect.

This has always been Gu Hanshan’s philosophy.

This was also the important reason why his master chose him instead of Brahma.

Perhaps Gu Hanshan could not take Luoyun Sect to a higher level.

But in Gu Hanshan's hands, Luoyun Sect can definitely continue smoothly.

And be able to do the best for future generations.

"Husband..."

"Madam, don't be sad. You and I have been together for hundreds of years and have long been inseparable. It's just that I have been busy with cultivation and sect affairs over the years and have neglected you. I hope you won't blame me."

Gu Hanshan looked at Ning Qingshuang with complicated eyes.

"After I die, I hope Madam can take good care of the sect."

"I will, husband...don't worry!"

Ning Qingshuang said with a trembling voice.

Gu Hanshan also looked at the Great Elder Qi Yuanshan.

"Elder Qi, the sect will rely on you more in the future."

Qi Yuanshan immediately saluted with a solemn expression.

"I will do my best to live up to the trust placed in me by the Sect Master!"

Gu Hanshan took two breaths, and the little bit of his complexion that had been restored by the elixir was rapidly fading.

He looked at Li Qingfeng and Han Yinyue with difficulty.

These were the only two direct disciples he had ever accepted in his life, and he placed high hopes on them.

Even after Li Qingfeng married three Taoist companions and stopped his cultivation, he never felt disappointed or dissatisfied with Li Qingfeng.

Even before he went into seclusion with his life or death hanging in the balance, Gu Hanshan was still most worried about Li Qingfeng.

I just didn't expect that I would have to go first.

I will never have the chance to care about this eldest disciple again in the future.

"Qingfeng...Yingyue."

"Master!"

The two of them knelt on the ground together, each holding one of Gu Hanshan's hands.

"Yinyue...you must cultivate diligently and enter the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible. The future...the sect depends on you."

"Master, rest assured, I will never let you down!"

Gu Hanshan looked at Li Qingfeng again.

His eyes were already blurry, and in a trance, what he saw was not the old Li Qingfeng of today, but the young and vigorous Li Qingfeng of those days.

"Green wind... Green wind..."

Gu Hanshan was barely breathing and called out Li Qingfeng's name with difficulty.

"Master, disciple is here! Disciple is here!"

Li Qingfeng was in tears and held Gu Hanshan's hand tightly, but he could clearly feel that the vitality in Gu Hanshan's body had been completely lost.

My palms quickly turned cold.

The feeling of watching his life slip away made Li Qingfeng feel very uncomfortable.

Especially since this person is his master, who has cared for him and taught him for nearly three hundred years.

But now he is going to die in front of me.

This made Li Qingfeng even more grief-stricken.

"Everyone...get out."

"Qingfeng...you stay."

Everyone knew that Gu Hanshan must be saying his final words.

However, no one expected that the person Gu Hanshan wanted to confess in the end was Li Qingfeng, not his wife Ning Qingshuang.

No one said anything and everyone quickly left the stone chamber.

Only Li Qingfeng was left to accompany Gu Hanshan.

"Qingfeng... I know you must be hiding something. As your master... I won't force you to do anything."
