Chapter 1361 The Identity of the Real Culprit

“Even a tiger will not devour its own cubs. Yet, you wouldn’t even save your own son. You are truly cruel,” said Lin Xun.

His voice was indifferent, but it struck Meng Qiujing like lightning and caused his hair to stand up.

Even the Omega Sword Sect didn’t know that Song Qingyun was his son. How did Lin Xun find out about this?!

“Abomination, this is the territory of the Omega Sword Sect, not where you can act wildly!” Meng Qiujing suddenly bellowed, his voice rumbling like thunder.

Hearing this, Lin Xun’s lips curled up in ridicule. “You’re still trying to notify your sect so they can come and save you?”

“You...” Meng Qiujing’s expression dramatically sank when he realized that his voice had been blocked by an invisible layer of restrictive force.

Boom!

Lin Xun swung his hand. His dao aura immediately formed a splendid starry river and swept out.

Meng Qiujing had the cultivation of the second longevity stage. Without that, he wouldn’t have been able to serve as an inner elder of the Omega Sword Sect. However, when faced with this strike, he felt indescribably helpless.

The gap between them was too big!

In an ear-piercing explosion laced with unwilling roars, Meng Qiujing was wrapped up by the dazzling light and lost consciousness.

The next moment, Lin Xun picked him up and swiftly flew into the darkness.

Recalling what had just happened, even he had to admit that this Meng Qiujing was extremely vigilant and shrewd, immediately retreating when he sensed something bad.

It was astonishing how quickly he reacted and how ruthless his heart was.

Fortunately, Lin Xun had never intended to sit and wait for Meng Qiujing to fall into his trap.

A fight with an old King stage monster inside the city would inevitably expose his power and identity and cause an unnecessary uproar.

Taking this into consideration, Lin Xun had arranged for Little Silver to remain in the city while he had left to guard the road.

Thanks to this, he was able to catch the big fish that was Meng Qiujing.

......

In the city under the ink-dark night.

A building had been covered in invisible restrictive runes.

“Can you not let Qingyun know about these things? He is innocent and has never gotten involved in any persecution of the Lin Family. I beg you, please let him off the hook.” Meng Qiujing looked defeated as he half lay on the ground. He seemed to have suddenly aged a great deal.

Song Qingyun was still unconscious like an abandoned dog on the cold ground, which made his heart ache.

“Wasn’t my family innocent? Have you ever thought of letting them go just once?” Lin Xun’s face was expressionless, and there wasn’t a shred of emotion in his eyes.

“We...we were forced!” shouted Meng Qiujing in distress. “We are not the real culprit!”

“Of course, I know it was Yun Qingbai,” said Lin Xun.

Meng Qiujing clenched his jaw and spilled the secret, “No, Yun Qingbai was just a poor puppet with his entire life in someone else’s grasp. He was only at the early Cyclic Derivation stage back then; how could he possibly have the ability to sneak into the lower world and do such a thing without being noticed?”

He had obviously decided to throw all care out the window in order to protect himself.

Lin Xun narrowed his eyes. “Then, was it the man who raised Yun Qingbai?”

Meng Qiujing was incredulous. “You...you already knew? It seems Yun Qingbai told you. Was he also very unwilling when he was nearing his death? A supreme talent born with a sword bone, but was manipulated from the very beginning...”

His face dimmed as he seemed to relate to this. Aren’t I the same as him?

Lin Xun was silent for a while, then said, “Tell me about that man.”

Hearing this, Meng Qiujing saw a glimmer of hope. “If I tell you about him, will you spare my life?”

Lin Xun said flatly, “Even if you don’t, I can still extract the information from your spirit. I just don’t want to go through the trouble.”

Little Silver stood on Lin Xun’s shoulder with an icy face. It was ready.

Meng Qiujing’s expression flickered. In the end, he accepted his fate and bitterly pointed at Song Qingyun not far away, “Can you leave a strand of bloodline for me?”

Lin Xun said, “I will consider this after learning the truth.”

“Alright!” Meng Qiujing nodded repeatedly. Taking several deep breaths, he said, “That person is not from the Omega Sword Sect. You should have heard that our Ancestor Fan Qi died today in a disaster. But in fact, Ancestor Fan Qi was killed a hundred years ago. His shell was then occupied by someone else...”

Lin Xun’s eyes narrowed. He hadn’t known about this before.

The one who had killed Ancestor Fan Qi was undoubtedly the mysterious man behind Yun Qingbai.

“That person is extreme, a demon that does not belong to the Ancient Wasteland Domain. He comes from the Absolute Yin Ancient Domain and has gotten one foot into the Emperor stage. A century ago, he used some unknown method to cross through the front line of our battlefield and infiltrate our domain...”

Meng Qiujing was cooperative as he narrated the past in a low voice.

“He had a plan to bring up someone strong enough to lead the younger generation of supreme geniuses before the opening of the nine-domain war.

“Yun Qingbai was the pawn he chose. He had been betting everything he had on him.

“But Yun Qingbai died at your hands, and this has completely disrupted his grand plan.”

Speaking of this, Meng Qiujing glanced at Lin Xun with a complicated expression. He wondered how the Ancient Wasteland Domain would feel when they knew that Lin Xun had helped the younger generation of heaven prides dissolve a monstrous calamity by killing Yun Qingbai.

“So, he wanted to use Yun Qingbai to do something unfavorable to the Ancient Wasteland Domain during the domain war?” Lin Xun was a little shaken.

A Quasi-Emperor from an outer domain had actually been lurking within the Omega Sword Sect for the past hundred years, and even raised Yun Qingbai into the younger generation’s greatest sword cultivator!

If it hadn’t been for Lin Xun, then it would have been possible for Yun Qingbai to become the leader of the whole domain’s supreme characters!

Meng Qiujing gritted his teeth and said, “It’s more than just ‘do something unfavorable.’ That demon planned to use Yun Qingbai’s influence during the opening of the domain war to gather and wipe out all the supreme characters of the Ancient Wasteland Domain, thus completely cutting off its path to the supreme!”

Hearing this, Lin Xun felt a chill run through his heart.

What a cruel plan!

The current great era had been extremely splendid, and after the closing of the Supreme Realm, it would only be difficult for it to descend the Ancient Wasteland Domain again in the future.

It could be said that the Supreme Kings right now were the only batch of supreme cultivators left in the Ancient Wasteland Domain. If they were all wiped out, then the Ancient Wasteland Domain would indeed be forever devoid of the supreme!

Lin Xun also understood why Yun Qingbai had been able to enter the lower world and easily carry out the massacre of the Lin Family.

He had been accompanied by a Quasi-Emperor, and that had been more than enough!

“Where is he? Don’t tell me he’s still in the Omega Sword Sect?” asked Lin Xun.

“No.” Meng Qiujing shook his head. “Since his plan failed, he left just today. Otherwise, there wouldn’t have been the news of ‘Ancestor Fan Qi’s death.’”

Lin Xun nodded.

“Right, there is one more thing.” Meng Qiujing suddenly remembered something. “That demon once said something about your identity being not simple, and that he wasn’t able to kill you back then because he was thwarted by a mysterious person who had originally intended to save your mother. In the end, that person ultimately seized the opportunity to save only you.”

Lin Xun stiffened as his mind buzzed in realization.

After all, it had been the plan of a Quasi-Emperor. It would have been impossible for Lin Xun to survive unless someone had rescued him.

The first person Lin Xun thought of was Mister Lu Boya who had raised him!

“What about my parents?” Lin Xun’s mood was a little off.

“No idea.” Meng Qiujing shook his head. “Unless something unexpected happened, they should have been killed, or else they definitely wouldn’t have watched your Origin Aeth Artery being dug out.”

Lin Xun had previously awakened his memory at birth, and watched from the perspective of an infant the bloody massacre on Mind Cleansing Peak.

Unfortunately, it had been just the tip of the iceberg. He had only seen his parents anxiously yelling in the sea of fire, and also Yun Qingbai indifferently and coldly marching through the fire like a killing god...

Other than that, there had been nothing else.

Meng Qiujing said, “I only remember that demon saying there is a true Emperor expert presiding over the lower world, otherwise he could have exterminated the entire Lin Clan.”

A true Emperor?!

Lin Xun’s heart was in turmoil again. There is an Emperor in the lower world?!

Could it be Mister Lu?

No, that’s not right! If Mister Lu was an Emperor, then he wouldn’t tolerate a Quasi-Emperor escaping...

Then who could it be?

Doubts filled Lin Xun’s mind. He only realized now that there were too many secrets unbeknownst to him behind the massacre of the Lin Family!

“I’ve told you everything I know. I was also forced. Ancestor Fan Qi was my master. How could I not loath the demon that killed him?”

Meng Qiujing’s expression flickered, and his voice was bitter.

“But I can’t do anything about it. That demon used a mysterious mind spell on me. If I don’t listen to his orders, then I would be suffering a pain that’s worse than death. It’s simply not up to me. Yun Qingbai was very pathetic, but I’m no different. We are just pawns under that demon’s control.”

At this moment, Meng Qiujing was like a wretch as he sat on the ground, paralyzed. Not a trace of the bearing that a King expert should possess could be seen on him.

However, Lin Xun’s expression was unperturbed. He asked, “Last question, what is his name?”

“I only vaguely remember he said that he came from a place called Yin Star Sea in the Absolute Yin Ancient Domain. He called it his homeland...” Meng Qiujing frowned in thought. Then, he suddenly remembered something and excitedly said, “Right! He once mumbled something during cultivation: ‘Once I, Baqi, return to my homeland, this great feat will put me on the throne...’”

Pfff!

Meng Qiujing’s eyes violently widened, and then he coughed out a huge mouthful of blood before collapsing on the ground. In just the blink of an eye, he was deprived of all vitality.

The skin all over his body had taken on a bizarre violet-blue color!

The sudden event made Lin Xun appalled.
