Chapter 70 The Tribulation of the Three Pure Ones

At night, Sanqing Mountain resembles a dream world. As the last rays of sunset disappear into the horizon, night quietly descends, shrouding this mysterious mountain range in deep darkness.

The trees on the mountain cast dappled shadows under the moonlight, like natural ink paintings. A gentle breeze rustled the leaves, as if nature were playing a serenade in the quiet night.

However, incongruously, the Sparrow Demon was already wreaking havoc at the foot of the mountain.

Upon hearing the news, Master Yuxu of the Sanqing Hall immediately organized forces to respond urgently.

"Elder, the visitors are hostile. None of the disciples who came up the mountain survived," reported the newly appointed senior disciple, Yang Wanda.

Yang Wanda was the last disciple of Master Yuxu, and was chosen by the elders after Ke Dasheng and Luo Ling left the Sanqing Palace. He was only in his thirties, and his style of doing things was decisive.

After listening to Yang Wanda's words, Master Yuxu looked at Elder Taiqing beside him. Elder Taiqing seemed indifferent, while another elder, Fan Jin, was dozing off with his eyes closed due to his advanced age. The other elders also had their own thoughts.

"Alas..." Master Yuxu could only sigh and say, "Yang Wanda, lead him up to Yujing Peak."

"Yes!" Yang Wanda replied and left.

Master Yuxu knew that none of the old fellows sitting in the main hall could be relied on; they were all just occupying positions without doing anything. Therefore, he had to take action himself to deal with such a powerful demon.

"Sect Leader, Sect Leader, I report to the Sect Leader that the Sparrow Demon has killed all the disciples outside."

Suddenly, Luo Ling rushed in from outside the main hall, which excited Elder Taiqing, who had been depressed about the matter, so he stood up. Fan Jin also slowly opened his eyes to see if Ke Dasheng had returned.

"How dare you come back? You've completely disgraced your master!" An elder suddenly stood up and rebuked him.

Seeing this, Elder Mingyuan also joined in the commotion: "Luo Ling, you have committed such a despicable act and then left, damaging the sect's reputation."

Luo Ling ignored the old men on the platform and walked straight to Master Yuxu next to the incense burner: "Sect Leader, look at you, what kind of useless people have you raised? All they do is sit in chairs, doze off, and pick their nails."

"I don't think you should be sitting in this position of sect leader, and the Sanqing Sect shouldn't even exist," Luo Ling provocatively said.

"Insolence!" Master Yuxu waved his hand and threw a whisk at Luo Ling.

Luo Ling instantly transformed into a wisp of gas and vanished into the air: "Hahahaha, old Taoist priest, you're almost in your grave and you're still so energetic."

The elders all stood up to prepare for the battle, and Elder Taiqing was even more surprised, how could his disciple...?

"Yu Xu, after all these years, you still haven't advanced to the ranks of a ten-coin demon slayer. No wonder you've only managed to train this bunch of misfits. Hahaha, you're getting old, just rest and stop showing off." The sparrow demon repeatedly provoked.

Elder Taiqing couldn't believe his eyes and stammered, "You, you are Luo Ling?"

Ke Dasheng and Luo Ling were both disciples of Elder Taiqing. Although he himself felt that these two disciples were not up to par, his love for them was genuine. Therefore, he couldn't help but ask such a question when he met Luo Ling this time.

The Sparrow Demon had already taken over Luo Ling's body and inherited her memories, so of course it knew that the old man in front of it was Luo Ling's real master. So it mocked, "So what if it's me? You useless master, hahaha." "Sparrow Demon, how dare you!" Suddenly, Fan Jin, who had been sitting in his seat with his eyes half-closed, shouted loudly.

The shout startled the sparrow demon. The voice was so familiar. She looked closely and, although the old man had a white beard, she vaguely remembered his youthful appearance: "Fan Jin? You, you're still alive?"

The Sparrow Demon and Fan Jin had a connection forty years ago. At that time, the Sparrow Demon dominated the Azalea Valley and harmed passersby at night. Senior Brother Yu Xu immediately arranged for Fan Jin to enter the valley and exterminate the demon. Fan Jin, wielding the Jade Flower Sword, killed the Sparrow Demon in just three days, making it too afraid to show its face.

"Old Master Fan, I thought you were dead! You gave the Jade Flower Sword to a little girl," the Sparrow Demon said angrily.

"Little girl!" Everyone looked at Fan Jin, knowing that he had given his Jade Flower Sword to Shen Anzhi.

Fan Jin had actually figured it out. Since the sparrow demon knew about this, An Zhi must be fine. So he said, "Hahaha, it was I who sent you to destroy you. You are my disciple, and you must do your best to slay demons."

These words made the Sparrow Demon both angry and helpless, but her goal was not to slaughter the Sanqing Palace. After all, she was no match for these old Taoist priests in front of her. She just wanted to have some fun.

"Hahaha, today is your tribulation of the Three Pure Ones, hahahaha." The sparrow demon transformed into a wisp of green smoke and flew out of the main hall.

The sparrow demon vanished, and everyone gathered at the entrance of the main hall, looking in the direction the sparrow demon had flown away.

As night falls, darkness envelops Sanqing Mountain like a giant net.

boom……

Suddenly, the sky was torn apart by a pale bolt of lightning, followed by a deafening clap of thunder.

The lightning, like countless sharp swords, pierced straight towards Yuhua Peak, instantly illuminating the dark world as if it were daytime.

With each flash of lightning, the ferocious outlines of Yuhua Peak, Yujing Peak, and Yuxu Peak could be clearly seen. The peaks were steep and the cliffs were precipitous, like the fangs of an ancient beast, ready to devour everything.

Yu Xu had a vague feeling that a bloody storm was about to break out.

“Junior Brother Taiqing, this demon’s willingness to openly challenge Sanqing Mountain suggests he came prepared. Quickly summon the elders of the Five Peaks and Six Academies. Starting tonight, search the entire Sanqing Mountain to find the Sparrow Demon,” Master Yuxu instructed.

Elder Taiqing was still reeling from what had just happened with Luo Ling, but he still replied, "Yes."

"Brother Fan," Master Yuxu said, looking at the eldest elder of the Sanqing Palace, "The Sanqing Blessed Land is the lifeblood of Sanqing Mountain. As an elder of the Sanqing Palace, you must quickly retrieve the Jade Flower Sword and protect the Sanqing Blessed Land."

Fan Jin was quite optimistic after hearing this, because he had already concluded from the Sparrow Demon's words that the Sparrow Demon had contacted Shen Anzhi, and that Shen Anzhi was unharmed. So he firmly replied, "Don't worry about the Blessed Land, you can go ahead and exorcise the demon."

"My fellow disciples, this sparrow demon has ill intentions. You all heard its provocation just now. I hope we can all work together." Although Master Yuxu knew that this group was disorganized, he still had to say this for the sake of the bigger picture.

"Yes!" Everyone withdrew.

After everyone left, Master Yuxu looked anxiously at the distant mountains again. Thunder echoed through the valleys, like ten thousand horses galloping, or a thousand armies clashing in battle. The sound crashed against the mountain walls, rebounding and creating wave after wave of sound, making everyone's heart pound uncontrollably…
