Master of Martial Arts, please enjoy a drunken revelry in the martial world.

Upon seeing this scene, Jian Jingfeng knew that the truth of what happened back then had been uncovered.

Guihai Yidao learned the truth and realized that the person who killed his father was his mother.

For someone who deeply loves their parents, this is undoubtedly devastating news.

"How could this happen... how could this happen!"

Guihai Yidao retreated repeatedly, muttering to himself. The next moment, his eyes turned blood red!

"No! It's all fake! Fake! Jian Jingfeng! You must have killed my father and framed my mother, right?!"

Guihai Yidao let out a furious roar, and then drew his treasured sword directly from its sheath.

Dominate the world!

This strike is brimming with malevolent energy!

"One slash!"

Haitang was shocked and called out Guihai Yidao's name, but Guihai Yidao did not respond.

The blade slashed straight at Jian Jingfeng.

Jian Jingfeng was shocked and quickly retreated, drawing his longsword and slashing out!

boom!

The clash between the blade energy and the sword energy sent Jian Jingfeng flying out of the room in an instant.

With a deafening roar, most of the room was destroyed.

Haitang quickly used her light-footed skills to escape from the room.

Looking at Guihai Yidao again, his eyes were still bloodshot, and his whole being exuded a terrifying evil aura.

Not only that, but the sword energy emanating from his body also became purer and more murderous at this moment!

puff!

Jian Jingfeng spat out a mouthful of blood, clearly indicating that the previous slash had inflicted considerable damage on him.

"Senior Sword, are you alright?"

Haitang quickly expressed her concern.

"I'm fine! But how come Yi Dao has also cultivated the Hegemon of the World!"

Is this child crazy?!

This sword technique is extremely unorthodox; even Brother Guihai couldn't control it back then. He's so young; if he were to practice it, he'd definitely suffer a qi deviation!

Jian Jingfeng was extremely anxious.

I never expected that after so many years, when I saw my old friend's son again, he would have turned out like this.

This made him feel that he could not face the deceased Guihai Bailian.

"This is the power to dominate the world? No wonder it's so sinister."

Haitang was also shocked to hear this, never expecting that Guihai Yidao had somehow mastered such an unorthodox sword technique.

"Die! All of you, die!"

Guihai Yidao went completely mad, wielding his treasured sword and slashing at the two of them again.

In an instant, a thirty-meter-long blade of energy slashed towards the two of them!

"Oh no! That strike was too powerful!"

Even though Haitang's strength had greatly increased with Gu Qianbei's help, she still felt like she was facing death when faced with this strike.

Jian Jingfeng's expression was no better than Haitang's at this moment.

This blow also led him to the road to the underworld.

At this dangerous moment, a flash of lightning suddenly appeared.

Gu Qianbei, dressed in a green robe, arrived in an instant and stood in front of the two.

"A thousand cups!"

When Haitang saw Gu Qianbei, she was overjoyed and instantly felt that she had found someone to rely on.

Looking at the incoming blade energy, Gu Qianbei exclaimed, "What a magnificent move, 'Dominating the World,' truly an incredible sword technique."

Despite her sighs, Gu Qianbei immediately adopted a defensive stance.

Golden Light Mantra Bell!

hum!

After a buzzing sound, the Golden Light Mantra condensed into a large golden bell, enveloping the three of them.

Its terrifying defensive power completely blocked the overwhelming sword energy.

The sound was like a grand and majestic bell, full of Taoist charm!

Golden Light Mantra Bell!

This is a defensive martial art that he developed on his own after witnessing Master Jianchi's Prajna Heart Sutra.

It was in order to study this that he and Wanwan had their first conversation.

Seeing that Gu Qianbei had blocked Gui Haiyi's attack, Haitang and Jian Jingfeng both breathed a sigh of relief.

"Qianbei, something bad has happened. After learning the truth, Yidao has lost control of his emotions and seems to have gone mad."

"Don't worry, leave it to me."

Gu Qianbei said softly, circulating the Golden Light Mantra within his body, ready to strike again at any moment.

When Guihai Yidao saw that his attack had failed and that he had even been forced back several steps by the force of the resistance, he became even more frantic.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Gui Haiyi roared, brandishing his precious sword and attacking Gu Qianbei with extremely frenzied and exquisite swordsmanship.

Gu Qianbei was not afraid at all and immediately used the wonderful movement technique of Phoenix Dance Six Illusions to deal with him.

Although Gui Haiyi's swordsmanship was terrifying, it couldn't harm Gu Qianbei in the slightest. On the contrary, Gu Qianbei saw through his swordsmanship clearly.

The so-called Demon Blade is the ultimate sword technique that abandons all defense. Ordinary people would hold back some of their strength when they make a move, but the Demon Blade would not.

Each of his strikes was a final strike that unleashed his inner strength to its fullest extent.

Therefore, its power is terrifying.

"Although this sword technique is powerful, it is too harmful to the body. If used for a long time, it will damage one's own foundation."

Gu Qianbei shook his head slightly, his interest in the Overlord of the World sword technique diminishing considerably.

The increase in sales is not as much as its own Overlord Wine, but the side effects are much greater.

"That's enough fun, let's call it a day!"

Gu Qianbei said softly, then a flash of lightning appeared on his body as he landed behind Gui Haiyidao and pointed out with a finger!

Golden Light Mantra Bell Seal!

He wanted to imitate Master Jianchi's previous act of planting a heart-sealing mark on Wanwan, sealing Guihai Yidao's internal energy and also his demonic nature.

This was the gentlest method he could think of.

Gui Hai turned around to slash Gu Qianbei again, but saw Gu Qianbei's sword finger gathering golden light, instantly pointing at his forehead.

In an instant, a powerful force surged into his mind.

The next moment, his terrifying demonic nature was completely sealed within the golden light.

Finally, a golden bell mark appeared on Guihai Yidao's forehead.

Guihai Yidao suddenly felt all the strength drained from his body and then fainted.

"this……"

Haitang and Jian Jingfeng quickly stepped forward to check on him.

"Chibei, are you alright?"

Haitang asked with concern.

"I'm fine. Although Brother Guihai has fallen into demonic possession, he can't hurt me."

"What's wrong with him now?"

Jian Jingfeng saw that Gui Haiyi had no injuries and his breathing was relatively stable, so he breathed a slight sigh of relief, but still asked Gu Qianbei what was going on.

"I sealed his demonic nature and inner strength. As long as this golden bell mark is not removed, he will not fall into demonic possession again."

But this is only a temporary solution and not a cure.

To completely eliminate the demonic nature within him, we need to resolve his inner conflicts and stop him from cultivating the "Dominate the World" technique.

Otherwise, this seal wouldn't last much longer.

Gu Qianbei said slowly.

"I see. I never expected young friend Gu to have such methods; it's truly astonishing."

It hasn't been long since I last fought with you, young friend Gu, and I never expected your strength to have improved to a level I can't even comprehend.

Jian Jingfeng sighed repeatedly.

Recalling the first time the two met, his strength was far superior to Gu Qianbei's.

Unexpectedly, in just a few years, they were completely surpassed by the other party.

Geniuses really are unreasonable.

"I'm just a little luckier than the average person."

Gu Qianbei smiled slightly.

"If you want to resolve Yidao's inner conflict, you can only go to your aunt."

So much time has passed since what happened back then, it's time for Auntie to give Yidao the truth.

Otherwise, Yidao would have lived his entire life consumed by thoughts of revenge.

Haitang said softly.

"That's right, that makes sense."

Begonia, let's go together to escort Brother Guihai to his mother.

This way, they can look out for each other on the road.

If Brother Guihai loses control again, I can handle it too.

Gu Qianbei presented his own solution.

"it is good."

Haitang naturally had no objection and immediately nodded in agreement.

"I'll go with you."

Jian Jingfeng echoed this.

He felt he had this responsibility towards Guihai Yidao.

"Senior Sword, you naturally have things to do. Go find Qilinzi and Master Liaokong, and come back to us after you've gathered them all."

All the witnesses to the incident were present; this is the greatest reassurance we can give to Brother Guihai.

Gu Qianbei said.

Upon hearing this, Jian Jingfeng thought it made a lot of sense and quickly said, "Okay, I'll go find Qilinzi and Liaokong right away."

The three of them originally intended to keep this a secret, or perhaps they wanted to bear this hatred for Lu Huanong.

But there's clearly not much of a chance right now.

Guihai Yidao already knows the truth, so there's no need to deceive him anymore.

All they can do now is to clarify the truth of what happened back then.

So, the group split up and went their separate ways.

Gu Qianbei and Haitang took the unconscious Guihai Yidao directly to the Shuiyue Nunnery where Lu Huanong was practicing seclusion, while Jian Jingfeng rode at full speed to find Qilinzi and Liaokong.

a few days later.

Shuiyuean.

Gu Qianbei and Haitang, along with Guihai Yidao, found Lu Huanong.

"What's wrong with Yidao?"

Seeing the two men carrying Guihai Yidao in, Lu Huanong immediately became anxious.

"Don't worry, Auntie, Yidao is fine for now."

However, he cultivated the technique of "Dominating the World," and demonic nature had already taken hold within him.

To prevent him from going berserk, we tied him up.

Haitang explained.

"What?! Yi Dao has also mastered the Overlord of the World technique? How could this be?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Huanong was struck dumb.

The father is like this, and so is the son; this father and son both seem to enjoy practicing those harmful martial arts.

Guihai Bailian's cultivation of the "Dominate the World" technique led to the destruction of his happy family.

Now, she has even caused her only son to follow in her footsteps.

What a sin.

"Auntie, this isn't the time to talk about these things. The extent of his demonic possession wasn't too deep yet; it was only because he learned the truth about what happened back then that he instantly became possessed by a demon."

I think if we can help him resolve this inner conflict, he might still have a chance to break free.

Haitang said.

"The truth? What truth?"

Lu Huanong had a bad feeling.

"That's the truth behind why Guihai Bailian died at your hands back then."

Gu Qianbei's voice shattered Lu Huanong's last hope.

She looked at Gu Qianbei in shock.

How did you know about this?

"If you don't want people to know, then don't do it in the first place; there are no secrets that stay hidden forever."

Senior Lu, it's time to speak out after carrying this pain for over a decade.

Besides, it's no use if you don't say anything now, because Brother Guihai already knows.

By speaking up, you are helping him resolve his inner conflict.

If you don't speak up, he'll probably suffer even more.

Upon hearing this, Lu Huanong fell silent.

For years she had been running away, running away from the fact that she had killed her husband with her own hands, and running away from the guilt that this fact brought.

But it's clear that there's no escaping it today.

For Gui Haiyidao's sake, for his only son, she had to reopen that wound.

"I knew this day would come sooner or later. It's better if it comes sooner, so I can be free."

I know what to do.

"You guys should wake Yidao up; I want to have a good talk with him."

Lu Huanong calmed down at this point and reverted to her composed demeanor as a nun.

Haitang looked at Gu Qianbei, who immediately understood.

With a flick of his finger, he released Guihai Yidao's golden light spell, reviving him.

He had temporarily recovered from his demonic state and was still fully conscious.

"Am I at Shuiyue Nunnery?"

Guihai Yidao came to his senses and was somewhat surprised.

Then his previous memories quickly returned, and his expression became extremely grave.

"How do you feel with that cut?"

Haitang asked with concern.

In the past, Guihai Yidao would have been very happy to receive Haitang's concern.

But by this time, his heart was already filled with hatred, and he could no longer see anything else.

His gaze fell directly on Lu Huanong, and he asked in a trembling voice, "Mother, who exactly killed Father back then?"

"Didn't you already know?"

Lu Huanong closed her eyes, forcing herself to answer the question calmly.

"I don't believe what they say, and I don't want to believe it. I want to hear my mother say it herself."

You know that, right?

You've always known how Dad died?

Is that right?

Guihai Yidao's voice was filled with grief.

Lu Huanong fiddled with the prayer beads in her hand, finally sighed, opened her eyes, and looked into Gui Haiyidao's eyes, which were filled with pain.

"Ichikatsu, my son, everything you know is the truth."

You're right, I've always known who killed Bai Lian.

Because that person is me.

I killed the person I loved most with my own hands.

But I don't regret it.

Because the Hundred Refinements that dominate the world are no longer mine.

He turned into a beast that only knew how to kill!

I've been reluctant to tell you because I was afraid you'd be disappointed in Bailian.

I know that in your heart, he is a hero.

If you knew that a hero had turned into a bloodthirsty beast, you would probably be very disappointed in him.

Lu Huanong's words shattered Gui Haiyidao's last glimmer of hope.

All of this is true.

There is no chance of turning things around.

Moreover, he now understood the terrifying power of a powerful ruler.

Because he had just gone mad and almost killed the person he loved most.

I am like this, and my father is probably like this too.

If I were the father at that time, what choice would I have made?

They'd probably be glad they're finally dead.

That way, you won't hurt the people you cherish.

Thinking of this, Guihai Yidao felt a sense of relief.

"One slash..."

Haitang had never seen such an expression on Guihai Yidao's face before, and couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Hearing her call, Guihai Yidao looked over.

The girl he's liked since childhood is still as radiant as ever.

But behind her stood another man.

Gu Qianbei.

That rapidly rising legendary figure.

Guihai Yidao had been paying attention to him because he saw something unusual in Haitang's eyes when she looked at him.

He had known all along that Haitang had fallen for Gu Qianbei.

At this point, he was completely certain that the two had confessed their feelings for each other.

pretty good.

The woman he loves has found a protector, so he, the loser, is destined to be a complete failure.

There's nothing left to worry about.
