This was the first time the old Sword Saint had seen his extremely obedient disciple disobey his orders.
This was the first time Gu Changqing had seen his kind and kind master fly into a rage.
"How dare you disobey me?"
"Now that you've mastered the Dao of the Sword, no one in the world can stop you. Do you no longer take me, your master, seriously?”
"Have you forgotten your oath? Have you forgotten what kind of promise you made to me when I took you in as my disciple?”
.......
The old Sword Saint flew into a rage and roared hoarsely. He stared at Gu Changqing, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets.
Gu Changqing's sword heart was extremely pure, which was why the old Sword Saint was never worried that this guy would disobey him.
But now, Gu Changqing was disobeying his orders for some unimportant people, which made him feel threatened.
If this disciple of his really wanted to leave or make some other decision, not to mention himself, even if the entire Archaic Mysteries Sect's higher-ups were to join forces, they would definitely not be able to stop this monstrous decision.
........
Gu Changqing returned to the attic.
This conflict caused him to drift further and further away from his master.
However, Gu Changqing had already made up his mind.
From now on, Jue Ji would no longer kill for the Archaic Mysteries Sect.
His sword was the Heaven Splitting Sword. To be a chess piece for the Archaic Mysteries Sect and kill endlessly was against his sword path.
Gu Changqing made up his mind to follow the Heart of the Sword.
However…
On one hand, it was his heart of swordsmanship, and on the other hand, it was the kindness of his sect.
Everything in the world was in a dilemma. Choosing one's heart meant abandoning one's teacher's kindness. Choosing one's teacher's kindness meant abandoning one's sword heart.
Gu Changqing was never one to owe others. Ever since that quarrel, he felt as if an insurmountable mountain was pressing down on his heart, making him unable to breathe.
He no longer asked about the Sword Sect's matters and chose to continue cultivating in the attic, avoiding everything.
However, the cultivation speed that was like a rocket in the past was difficult to increase this time.
He drew the ground as a prison and meditated in the attic for a year.
However, there were many things in the world that had no answers. After a year, it was still difficult to gain anything.
Until one day, Caiyun Tong 'er, who was beside the old Sword Saint, suddenly arrived.
He bowed respectfully to Gu Changqing, who had experienced many vicissitudes in just one year."Teacher went to Tian Ji Sect. Before he left, he asked me to pass a message to Shixiong.”
"Teacher said that he needs you to kill one last person for him. As for who this person is, we will know after we return from the Archaic Mysteries Sect.”
"If you agree, then after this, the karma will be cleared.”
Caiyun Tong 'er's words made Gu Changqing's eyes light up.
It was as if the dark world had finally welcomed the dawn.
"Kill one person. As long as I kill one person, I'll repay Master's kindness and everything will be over.”
"I can also get rid of the Archaic Mysteries Sect and go down the mountain to find the enemy who killed my parents!”
Gu Changqing's expression changed. These words gave him a perfect choice and made his sword heart clear.
He finally didn't have to bear the debt of his teacher!
At this moment, Gu Changqing felt more relaxed than ever.
Just like that, he waited quietly in the pavilion.
He also knew that since the Archaic Mysteries Sect promised him freedom, the person they wanted to kill was definitely not an ordinary person.
He might even be a Martial Monarch Realm expert.
However, Gu Changqing would not hesitate. No matter how difficult it was, even if he had to die, he would not hesitate to cut off the shackles that had trapped him for a year.
.......
Three days later.
Gu Changqing was still waiting for the old Sword Saint in the attic.
However, he did not know.
Below the pavilion, the old Sword Saint paced back and forth in the wind and snow. From time to time, he would glance at the pavilion with an extremely conflicted expression.
About 15 minutes later.
Heavy footsteps came from the wooden stairs. The old Sword Saint finally reached the attic with heavy steps.
"Master."
Gu Changqing opened the door and saw the old Sword Saint. He immediately came forward with his saber.
The old Sword Saint waved his hand sadly."After this, I will no longer be your master.”
Gu Changqing could hear the bitterness in his words.
But now, his path was different from his master's, and he had no other choice.
"Who do you want me to kill this time?"
Gu Changqing asked.
He was actually a little nervous at this moment because he noticed the old Sword Saint's conflicted and endless complexity hidden in his eyes.
Could it be that the person Master wants me to kill is even more difficult to deal with than a Martial Monarch Realm expert?
In his mind, he subconsciously thought of a candidate.
Many figures appeared in his mind.
The old Sword Saint pondered for a long time and finally opened his palm.
In his palm was a crumpled ball of paper.
Gu Changqing couldn't wait to unfold the paper ball.
When he saw the words on the paper, he was stunned!
That huge ball of paper.
There were only three words.
Jiang! Bright! Emperor!
