System's Super Sect Chapter 1348 - 1167: Weisheng Xingyu’s Doubts (Part 2)
Previously on System's Super Sect...
Wei Sheng Xingyu continued, "Know-It-All Pavilion couldn’t find anything, I couldn’t find anything in the Black Domain Lord’s Mansion either—where else are you going to look?"
"I..."
Wood Dragon was at a loss for words.
"Elder Wood Dragon, if there were any way I could make use of you in this matter, I definitely wouldn’t be polite about it. But right now you really can’t help me with anything." Wei Sheng Xingyu immediately fell into deep thought, then decided to have He Nian take him to Yun Ni’s grave.
Maybe there was some clue in the grave!
Even a single clue would count as a gain.
"What do you want to ask?" At some unknown point, Wen Ping had appeared beside Wei Sheng Xingyu.
Wei Sheng Xingyu was stunned. "Huh?"
"Get up." Wen Ping immediately used Necromancy to control Qin Tianfang’s corpse, then turned to Wood Dragon beside him and said, "Go find paper and brush."
Wood Dragon nodded, turned into a streak of rainbow light, and vanished in an instant.
Then Wen Ping spoke again, this time to the dead Qin Tianfang. "Later, whatever he asks you, you just write it down."
"Sect Leader... this..."
Wei Sheng Xingyu was a little dumbfounded.
Wen Ping shook his head with a helpless smile. "If one’s not enough, we add Nan Si. I thought it was something huge. If we can’t ask the living, then we ask the dead."
With that, Wen Ping controlled Nan Si and brought him in front of Wei Sheng Xingyu.
Qin Tianfang and Nan Si were indeed dead.
But Necromancy could grant them a second life.
With this second life, they simply no longer possessed their own consciousness, but that didn’t mean they were just empty shells.
Their lifetime of cultivation remained.
Naturally, so did their lifetime of memories.
Could the Secret Technique planted by Endless Celestial Suspension really kill the dead a second time?
"You can even question the dead!" Wei Sheng Xingyu was shocked and overjoyed.
Of course—Sect Leader could even command fallen Celestial Unrestricted Upper Realm powerhouses; how could such a thing be difficult?
As they spoke, Wood Dragon returned with paper and brush.
"Go down and ask."
With that, Wen Ping descended toward the little stream among the mountains.
After Wood Dragon handed out paper and brush to Qin Tianfang and Nan Si, Wei Sheng Xingyu impatiently asked, "Who exactly killed my daughter?"
The two of them simultaneously wrote the four words: Endless Celestial Suspension!
Wei Sheng Xingyu’s expression hardened; he wasn’t particularly surprised, because he had already guessed it was Endless Celestial Suspension—he was asking Qin Tianfang merely for confirmation.
"I want to hear the details."
Once Wei Sheng Xingyu spoke, Qin Tianfang and Nan Si began to write in flowing detail the course of Yun Ni’s murder. Their perspectives were different, but the story was pretty much the same.
After Endless Celestial Suspension cast Wei Sheng Xingyu into the Qu Realm, he did not immediately move against Yun Ni, but instead acted as if nothing had happened.
Because at that time, many people were still loyal to Wei Sheng Xingyu.
After Wei Sheng Xingyu’s death, Endless Celestial Suspension still did not immediately vie for the position of Tower Master of Sky-Shrouding Tower, but strongly recommended Yun Ni to serve as Tower Master and preside over the situation. Once Yun Ni successfully became the temporary Tower Master, Endless Celestial Suspension began ceaselessly buying hearts in secret, eliminating anyone who stood in his way.
This process took ten years.
Over ten years, nearly everyone who was not loyal to Endless Celestial Suspension either died in battle on the frontier or went missing. Naturally, all of that was Endless Celestial Suspension’s doing.
At that point, although Yun Ni was called Tower Master of Sky-Shrouding Tower, almost everyone listened only to Endless Celestial Suspension.
It was then that Endless Celestial Suspension revealed his original ambition. In a great battle on the frontier, he leaked Yun Ni’s position to people from You Country in advance, causing her to be grievously wounded by experts of You Country, while the few remaining subordinates loyal to her were all killed.
Grievously wounded, Yun Ni retreated to reclaim the territory of Sky-Shrouding Tower, only to be completely surrounded by Endless Celestial Suspension, who had long since arranged the ambush and led his men in encircling her.
In the end, Yun Ni was personally killed by Endless Celestial Suspension, and her corpse was thrown onto the battlefield. He then pinned Yun Ni’s death on You Country.
"Endless Celestial Suspension, I’ll kill you myself!" After reading the account Qin Tianfang and Nan Si had written, Wei Sheng Xingyu clenched his fists, lifting his head to the sky and letting out a howl of anguish.
At that moment, no one spoke.
Wood Dragon was silent.
Wen Ping was silent as well.
Wen Ping understood Wei Sheng Xingyu’s pain at this moment.
Wei Sheng Xingyu’s greatest suffering had never been losing the position of Tower Master of Sky-Shrouding Tower.
Because if he cared about power, he would never have left You Country and given up his Royal Family identity to establish Sky-Shrouding Tower.
His suffering had always come only from betrayal.
From Yun Ni’s death.
And from the deaths of those loyal to him.
Wen Ping was not the type to comfort people, so he merely said one sentence.
"That day won’t be far off."
Wei Sheng Xingyu didn’t reply; he only gave Wen Ping a grateful look, then looked again at what Qin Tianfang and Nan Si had written, his eyes growing ever redder.
After a long time, Wei Sheng Xingyu asked again, "Why did Endless Celestial Suspension want to erase everything about Yun Ni?"
Qin Tianfang wrote—Because he didn’t want anyone to remember Yun Ni.
But Nan Si wrote—Because Yun Ni somehow obtained a strand of Primordial Vast Power. After Endless Celestial Suspension killed Yun Ni and seized that Primordial Vast Power, he didn’t want people from You Country to find even the slightest clue, so after recording every piece of information about Yun Ni, he destroyed it all.
"Yun Ni..."
Looking at what the two had written, Wei Sheng Xingyu broke down in tears.
"It’s your father who failed to protect you..."
"This isn’t your fault." Wen Ping patted Wei Sheng Xingyu’s shoulder, his gaze drifting over to what Nan Si had written.
So it was because of Primordial Vast Power.
No wonder Endless Celestial Suspension would erase all information concerning Yun Ni.
"System, what can a single strand of Primordial Vast Power do?" Wen Ping silently asked the system in his heart.
