The Proof of the Heavens Begins with The Legend of the Condor Heroes

Chapter 223: Cangsong Rebellion
In the Yuqing Palace, there was total silence; one could hear a pin drop.

This is because the person Fang Hao was pointing at was none other than the abbot of Longshou Peak, Taoist Cangsong!
"Zhang Xiaofan, I understand that it is not easy for you to practice, but if you continue to speak nonsense like this, don't blame me for being rude!" Taoist Cangsong stood up and released his aura, like a volcano before eruption, with a terrifying momentum.

After hearing this, Lin Jingyu angrily said to Fang Hao: "Xiao Fan, what nonsense are you talking about? How could my master do such a wicked thing!"

The disciples of Longshou Peak were also very excited. They stared at Fang Hao, wishing they could eat him alive.

"Zhang Xiaofan, Abbot Puhong of Tianyin Temple is also in Qingyun today and can serve as a witness. If you talk nonsense, even I can't protect you." Taoist Master Daoxuan's words were full of warnings.

"I think Uncle Puhong knows best whether I am talking nonsense, doesn't he?" Fang Hao stared at Abbot Puhong with eyes as sharp as knives.

"Amitabha, well done, well done." Abbot Puhong chanted the Buddha's name, but... did not refute.

This could not help but surprise everyone, especially some careful people, who noticed that Fang Hao addressed Abbot Puhong as "Uncle Puhong".

In fact, although the three pillars of the righteous path are of the same blood, when facing masters of other sects, it is customary to refer to them as "seniors". It is really a bit too much to directly call the other party "uncle master".

"Cangsong, are you surprised that Master Puzhi used his magical powers to severely injure you that day, but the villagers of Caomiao Village were still killed. Did you accept Jingyu because you felt guilty?"

Facing Fang Hao's series of questions, Taoist Cangsong had a blank expression on his face, as if the person Fang Hao was accusing had nothing to do with him.

Fang Hao continued, "Cangsong, are you curious about where the blood-sucking bead you wanted to take that day went?"

Before Cangsong could react, Fang Hao said directly: "Master Puzhi was seriously injured by your sneak attack, and he had no choice but to give the Blood-sucking Pearl to me for safekeeping."

When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked. What was the Blood-sucking Pearl? It was one of the four great treasures inherited from the Demon Cult. The Cao Miao Village tragedy actually involved the Blood-sucking Pearl.

What was even more unexpected was that this extremely evil thing was actually in Fang Hao's hands.

"Where's the evidence?" Taoist Cangsong said coldly, "Everyone knows how to make up a story. I want to ask you, where's the evidence?"

"Evidence?" Fang Hao asked back, "Does the Seven-Tailed Centipede count as evidence? Does the Divine Sword Controlling Thunder Technique count as evidence? In order to seize the Blood-sucking Pearl that day, you had no choice but to use our sect's unique skill, the Divine Sword Controlling Thunder Technique. Is it and isn't it?"

There was only calmness in Taoist Cangsong's eyes. During this moment, no one knew what he was thinking.

He came to Taoist Master Daoxuan, knelt on the ground, and said angrily: "Master, this traitor Tian Buyi has no evidence and is slandering me. Please help me!"

The head of a lineage was actually forced to this extent by his disciples.

Taoist Master Daoxuan had no choice but to step forward and help him up, and said kindly: "Junior Brother Cangsong, why do you have to be like this..."

He was about to say something else when he saw a dark shadow flash by, and then he felt a sharp pain between his fingers.

"Ah!" Taoist Xuan cried out in pain and slapped Taoist Cangsong away.

Soon, everyone saw a palm-sized, colorful, alien centipede with seven colorful tails, flying in the air.

The chief elders of Qingyun Sect stepped forward and surrounded Taoist Master Daoxuan in the blink of an eye. When everyone looked at Taoist Master Daoxuan, they all turned pale.

Taoist Master Daoxuan's right hand was seen trembling, with a wound on his middle finger, which was obviously caused by the seven-tailed centipede.

In just a moment, the blood flowing from the wound had turned black.

What was even more terrible was that from the wound on the fingertip, a shocking black gas quickly rose up and attacked Daoxuan Zhenren's heart. Daoxuan Zhenren forced himself to calm down, and made his fingers into a knife, tapping his arm several times, drawing talismans in the air, and finally temporarily suppressed the poison on the seven-tailed centipede.

He looked at Cangsong with a serious expression and said, "Junior Brother Cangsong, what are you doing?"

The seven-tailed centipede clearly jumped from Taoist Cangsong's sleeve and landed on his hand when he helped Cangsong up.

If he had not been completely unprepared for Taoist Cangsong, with Taoist Daoxuan's cultivation level, he would never have been ambushed by the poison of the seven-tailed centipede.

"What are you doing? I'm plotting against you, can't you see?"

Taoist Cangsong waved his hand, and the seven-tailed centipede moved in response, disappearing into his sleeves in an instant.

Qi Hao, Lin Jingyu and other Longshou Peak disciples looked at Taoist Cangsong in disbelief and asked, "Master, are you...are you crazy?"

Taoist Cangsong looked at the disciples of the Longshou Peak lineage, then looked at the heads of various lineages surrounding Taoist Master Daoxuan, looking like a madman, laughing loudly towards the sky.

“Hahaha! Yes, I am crazy.” Taoist Cangsong said, “More than a hundred years ago, also in this Yuqing Palace, when I saw the end of Senior Brother Wan Jianyiwan, I went crazy!”

Wan Jianyi!

When the leaders of each sect heard this man's name, they all froze in place.

"You! You! And you all!" Cangsong's eyes passed over Shang Zhengliang, Zeng Shuchang, Tian Buyi and the others one by one, and said at the same time: "Don't forget how you got your position as the first seat. If it weren't for Senior Brother Wan's support when the five of them went to the wilderness, you would have died long ago!"

Shang Zhengliang and Zeng Shuchang remained silent, but Tian Buyi said, "Senior Brother Wan has been very kind to us, but that's no reason for you to betray your master and ancestors and plot against the headmaster."

"Shut up!" Cangsong said with a grim smile, "The one who is most sorry to Senior Brother Wan is you. You are so ungrateful and stole someone's love. How could you do such a thing?"

"Just shut up!"

At this moment, Fang Hao, who had been ignored by everyone after the incident, suddenly said angrily: "My master, how can you slander him!"

"Seventh Brother..." Tian Buyi was deeply moved.

Fang Hao moved, stood in front of Cangsong, and said to the Qingyun traitor directly: "I don't understand the grudges between your previous generation, but you can't insult my master, and you shouldn't implicate the innocent people of Caomiao Village."

"Zhang Xiaofan, now that we have come to this point, I will not hide it from you. It was indeed me who ambushed that bald donkey Puzhi that day, but I did not kill the people from Cao Miao Village." Cangsong said.

Even though he fell into the evil path because of Wan Jianyi, Cangsong also has his own pride. Not attacking unarmed civilians is his bottom line.

"When did I ever say that you were the one who killed the villagers of Cao Miao Village?" Fang Hao said coldly, "The real culprits of the Cao Miao Village tragedy have always been two people, one is you, and the other is my master, Pu Zhi!"

Just as Fang Hao said, there have always been two real murderers. It was Cangsong who seriously injured Puzhi, making it difficult for him to suppress the ferocity of the Blood-sucking Pearl.

Controlled by the obsession with immortality, in order to allow Zhang Xiaofan, who had learned the Mahavairocana Prajna, to join the Qingyun Sect, he massacred the entire Cao Miao Village.

Since Zhang Xiaofan became an orphan, Qingyun Sect had to accept him as a disciple.
