Chapter 39
Lian Shenyin rushed back from the courtyard with a look of joy on her face.
After paying a visit to an expert, her cultivation broke through again, and she also received a song written by the senior himself.
Right now, she wanted nothing more than to enter seclusion cultivation.
“Hmm? Where are the disciples guarding the mountain?”
However, when Lian Shenyin returned to the mountain gate, she saw no disciples on guard in front of the entrance of the Divine Sound Sect.
Her brows furrowed, and she suddenly had the intuition that a storm was coming, as if something was going to happen.
After all, he had given the order that the disciples guarding the mountain could not leave their posts at any time.
Just as she was puzzled, a disciple suddenly flew out of the mountain gate.
“Sect leader, the patriarch, has come out of seclusion. Please head to the sect’s main hall now,” The disciple reported.
He had just gone to report.
Vice sect leader Qin Shou had already instructed him to do this.
“The patriarch has come out of seclusion?”
Lian Shenyin frowned. All these years, she had suspected that this patriarch of the Divine Sound Sect had killed her master.
However, all these years, she had only seen this patriarch of the Divine Sound Sect when she succeeded in the sect leader position in the Great Hall.
The reason he gave was that he had been in seclusion. The strength of the sect’s patriarch was above her, so she had not found any clues.
She was elated when Lian Shenyin heard that the patriarch had come out of seclusion. She could finally get some news.
“You will be on duty here.”
Lian Shenyin instructed the disciple and flew in.
In the main hall, a tall old man sat on the seat of the sect leader. He had a black suona horn at his waist and was full of killing intent.
He sat down. Feng Ling, Zi Yue, Sun Wukong, and the other core disciples and elders who supported the sect were all trapped.
“What’s going on?”
When Lian Shenyin stepped into the main hall and saw this scene, her brows furrowed as she instantly felt something was wrong.
“Sect leader, run! The patriarch wants to kill you!”
Sun Wukong immediately burned the blood essence in his body to break through the restriction and shouted in panic.
“What?”
Lian Shenyin was shocked as she looked at the ancestor of the Divine Sound Sect in shock.
She was just about to investigate the clues, and the patriarch was going to make a move.
“Sect leader, leave quickly. They have set up the killing array,” Elder Sun Wukong continued to shout.
Feng Ling and Zi Yue, who were at the side, also quickly gave Lian Shenyin a look.
“Haha, it’s too late to leave now.”
Sitting on the second seat, Qin Shou sneered with a ferocious expression. He waved his hand, and a stream of light shot out.
Buzz!
A trembling sound was heard.
At the same time, a light shield lit up in the hall. The hall door was instantly locked, and no one could go out.
The killing array instantly closed.
“Lian Shenyin, you will die today.”
Qin Shou sneered. As long as Lian Shenyin died, he would be the next sect leader of the Divine Sound Sect.
“It’s over. If you left just now, you might have a chance. But now, you can’t go. ”
Sun Wukong shouted in despair.
Feng Ling and Zi Yue were also discouraged.
Even though the patriarch’s cultivation state was on par with the sect leader, they were already being controlled. The patriarch had the help of the vice sect leader and the others.
The killing and trapping arrays were activated at the same time.
He couldn’t beat him, and he couldn’t escape either. In Sun Wukong’s eyes, sect leader Lian Shenyin would surely be dead.
Qin Shou and the others also thought so.
“Lian Shenyin, are you going to end this yourself, or do you want us to do it?”
The Divine Sound Sect’s patriarch spoke coldly from the leader’s seat. He opened his cold eyes and looked down at Lian Shenyin.
Qin Shou smirked. Very soon, the position of sect leader would be his.
Hearing this, Lian Shenyin’s face was filled with confusion, “Patriarch, why do you want to kill me? If you want the position of the sect leader, I can give it up.”
Lian Shenyin said indifferently. Even though she had her suspicions that the Divine Sound Sect’s patriarch might have something to do with the murder of her master, she didn’t have any concrete evidence.
“Hehe, there’s no need to pretend anymore.”
“Since you’re about to die, there’s no harm in telling you. I was the one who killed your master, Daoist Qing Shan!”
Patriarch Suona sneered.
He stopped pretending.
He directly confessed.
In any case, she was already in a situation where death was inevitable.
Lian Shenyin could not escape even if she had wings or screamed until her throat went hoarse.
“It’s you, indeed!”
Lian Shenyin’s face turned cold, and her voice turned low.
Her eyes focused, and her gaze was extremely cold.
It was as if nine heavens of profound ice slowly swept across the faces of Qin Shou and the others.
Those caught by Lian Shenyin’s gaze all shuddered as a chill ran down their spines.
In the end, Lian Shenyin’s gaze finally landed on the patriarch.
Even the patriarch of the Divine Sound Sect felt his heart skip a beat when he met Lian Shenyin’s gaze.
The moment his eyes met Lian Shenyin’s, the patriarch of the Divine Sound Sect felt the threat of death.
He instantly flew into a rage out of humiliation!
Right now, he was surrounding and trying to kill Lian Shenyin. However, he was threatened by Lian Shenyin instead.
How could he endure this?
“Hmph, you’ve angered me. So, I want to kill you myself.”
The patriarch stood up and removed the black suona horn from his waist.
In an instant, everyone’s expression changed.
“This is bad. Sect leader, move quickly,” Sun Wukong shouted. Once the patriarch used the suona horn, there would be casualties.
Moreover, the suona horn itself was extremely overbearing. Those trapped elders all had extremely anxious expressions on their faces.
“Hehe, it’s no use. Even though you’ve just broken through to the fourth level Heavenly Tribulation Realm, you’re still nothing in front of me.”
The patriarch’s face was gloomy. He raised the suona horn, and a loud and clear voice rang out instantly.
The sound of the suona was ear-piercing, and the terrifying melody caused Sun Wukong, Feng Ling, and the others to spit out a mouthful of blood. It was unbearable.
“Lian Shenyin, you’re dead.”
Qin Shou sneered as well. He was indeed no match for Lian Shenyin, but the patriarch was.
If the patriarch killed Lian Shenyin, he would be the sect leader of the Divine Sound Sect.
“Activate the killing array!”
He sneered and shot out another stream of light. Instantly, the killing formation in the hall was activated, and countless notes flew out like blades.
The concentrated rhythmic attacks rained down on Lian Shenyin.
“Sect leader!”
“Master.”
Sun Wukong, Feng Ling, and the others anxiously shouted.
Beside Qin Shou, no one noticed that an elder’s eyes focused as a message was silently sent out from his sleeve, bypassing the formation.
