Chapter 681: The heart is already a devil, so why not in troubled times?

Powerful spiritual pressure radiated from Zhang Ziling's body, and the monks in Shushan felt a great deal of pressure. Looking at the magic cloud rolling in the sky, fear appeared in many monks' eyes.
Zhang Ziling looked at Lan Wangji silently, waiting for his answer.
If Lan Wangji was really Lan Mu's biological father, then Zhang Ziling would have to consider his next actions.
Feeling the surging power coming from Zhang Ziling, Lan Wangji's eyes changed slightly, but he still forcibly withstood the pressure and slowly said: "Eighteen years ago, when our ghost sect was at its peak, there were countless strong people in the sect. , A long heritage."
"It was also that year when our ghost sect officially entered the rank of super power. We thought that we would become a super power and our ghost sect will usher in a prosperous age. But I didn't expect that since then, there will be a lot more in the cultivation world. The monks pretended to be disciples of the ghost sect and slaughtered ordinary people to cultivate, and a large number of ordinary people disappeared, and the charges were forcibly imposed on our ghost sect."
"In addition, our Ghost Sect has the Supreme Treasure Sky Ghost Orb, which can indeed absorb human souls. The five immortal gates took this unwarranted charge and led all major forces in China to kill the Ghost Sect."
"We Guizong seniors all died in battle, most of the disciples were killed and injured, the sect was broken, the exercises and books, and all the magic weapons were seized." At this point, a trace of resentment flashed in Lan Wangji's eyes, "The five immortals clearly know those things. It was not done by the Ghost Sect, because it was too late to find a murderer, and a force was needed to back the pot, so as to stabilize their reputation of the five immortals."
"So, after that battle, the ghost sect nearly perished in one fell swoop, my wife also died in battle, and my daughter was taken as a slave by Shu Shan."
"Back then, the five immortal gates made such a sin, but they still don't want to let us go. They used my daughter to blackmail me and lead me to attack the mountains. They want to take the opportunity to bury our ghost sect and let the truth of the year be buried in the dust forever!" Lan Wang Ji became excited, and took off the other half of the ghost face. There was a hideous scar on his handsome face. "Their control of the human heart can be described as towering, knowing that I can't let go of my daughter, knowing that my sect disciple is committed to revenge... …"
"Now we are transformed into ghosts, here comes!"
In the last sentence, Lan Wangji almost roared out with endless hatred.
Hearing Lan Wangji's words, Zhang Ziling's expression remained indifferent and looked at Xu Qianrou.
At this moment, Xu Qianrou's face was ugly, and the arm holding the broken sword was trembling slightly.
Back then, when they almost destroyed the ghost sect, they knew that the deaths of ordinary people in the cultivation world were not caused by the ghost sect. They did not find any traces of evil power in the ghost sect, nor did they find any ordinary people. Corpse.
You know, with such a large number of corpses, there is absolutely no way for Ghost Sect to dispose of them in a short time.
In addition, their disciples who went to investigate also found some clues and found evidence of framing the Ghost Sect, which proved that the Ghost Sect was wronged.
Fortunately, when Qionghua and Penglai Zongmen had an accident, they found an excuse to give up destroying the ghost sect. They just closed the mountain to make up for their mistakes.
However, since they have already done so, it is impossible to disclose the truth, because it will cause a devastating blow to the reputation of the five immortals, and once other forces in the Chinese cultivation world know the truth, people who are interested will definitely use this as a spearhead. Point straight to the five immortals.
Therefore, the Five Great Immortal Sects put all the blame on the Guizong, and they have been secretly cleaning up their hostile forces for the Guizong, otherwise the remaining ghosts at that time will definitely not escape destruction.
Adopting Lan Mu and accepting him as a closed disciple, Xu Qianrou always feels guilty in her heart.
Later, Lan Mu even showed the peerless talent of the Celestial Demon Body, which further strengthened Xu Qianrou's determination to cultivate Lan Mu, even if some of Yan's people wanted to kill Lan Mu and get rid of the roots.
At that time, few people in Shushan knew the truth, except for the senior executives of the older generation, only Tan Lingfei, who was a senior Shushan, knew it.
Xu Qianrou originally thought that this matter would be overwhelmed by the long river of time over time. After all, the ghost sect has become a second- and third-rate power. Without hundreds of years of time, it would be impossible to restore vitality, and may even disappear in the long river of history. among.
Even if the ghost sect recovers its strength, it will be too long, and all the older generations will perish, and the truth of that year will gradually be forgotten.
However, Xu Qianrou didn’t expect it at all. The Ghost Sect didn’t know why... The strength suddenly began to change drastically a few years ago. The cultivation base of the sect disciples was advancing by leaps and bounds, and more and more powerhouses burst out, faintly recovering again. To the momentum of the superpower.
This made Xu Qianrou feel a sense of crisis.
With great strength, the flames of revenge will become stronger and stronger, and this kind of hatred will prompt the Ghost Sect to initiate crazy revenge against the five immortals.
The five immortal gates have to choose to destroy the ghost sect in advance, even if it is wrong, but if you don't do so...In the future, the ghost sect will become a behemoth, and the entire China will become the target of ghost sect revenge.
When the time comes, it will really be overwhelmed.
Hatred can make people ruthless.
In desperation, they could only pass false news to Lan Wangji, saying that his daughter Lan Bing, also known as Lan Mu, was taken as a slave by Shu Shan and abused for more than ten years to force the ghost sect to come.
Only by destroying the ghost sect, the truth can be covered up, all this can be returned to the right track, and the distorted error will disappear in the long river of history.
All this was wrong, but Xu Qianrou had to do it.
She didn't dare to pay for this mistake. She had Shushan behind her, and she couldn't use the entire Shushan to make amends for the ghosts.
Therefore, she could only sacrifice the Ghost Sect, and then cultivate Lan Mu with all her strength to make her become the successor of Shu Shan, in order to compensate the Ghost Sect.
No matter how good fortune makes people, all this is out of her control.
The appearance of Zhang Ziling made the truth gradually emerge. It was impossible for them to destroy the Nine Emperors in Shushan. She could not see the situation in the future.
"Perhaps, you should explain." Zhang Ziling looked at Xu Qianrou and asked lightly.
To be honest, Zhang Ziling understood but didn't care about the experience of the Ghost Sect.
Regardless of whether it is on the earth or the Xuanxiao Continent, as long as it involves fighting for interests between forces, there will be no distinction between good and evil. Of course the five immortal gates are wrong, but Zhang Ziling also understands their approach.
After all, the five immortal gates are about to destroy the ghost sects, and for the continuation of their immortal gates, it has become an inevitable choice for the ghosts to become victims.
However, Zhang Ziling was very concerned about... Lan Mu's life experience.
If the five immortal gates killed Lan Mu's mother, Xu Qianrou raised Lan Mu into adulthood in order to lure the ghost sect to the hook and let Lan Mu live in deception all his life...
Zhang Ziling cares about this.
Zhang Ziling is the devil emperor, and he has the power to rule the world. He has the power to save the world and the power to destroy the world.
Zhang Ziling would not try to save the world for the sake of the world, because his growth... was to compete with the sky, the earth and the people, and was killed in the sea of ​​blood. He does not owe the common people, and the common people do not owe him, so... in Zhang Ziling's view, life and death in the world has nothing to do with him.
This is also the reason why Zhang Ziling didn't take the initiative to save the Dao of Heaven and destroy the Earth God Court.
Now that Zhang Ziling has returned to the realm of a saint, the heavenly gods can no longer stop him, but Zhang Ziling doesn't want to fight with the gods to rescue Tiandao because it is unnecessary.
However, if the people in this world have lost Lan Mu, then what is the use of people in this world?
The devilish energy in the sky gradually condensed countless black chains, exuding a frightening aura, Zhang Ziling's powerful aura made the entire Lingshan become depressed.
If the five immortal gates really defeated Lan Mu, they would slaughter the five immortal gates.
As the devil emperor, the heart is already a demon, so why not in troubled times?
