Blind Ghostwriter: Starts with the full level of Nine Yang Magic Skill

Chapter 160 Lu Canyang

When Tietou saw Gu Mo and Gu Chudong, he ran over and knelt on the ground, saying, "Master Gu, Miss Gu, please help save my uncle Qi Miaoxuan!"

Gu Mo raised his hand to pull Tietou up, frowned slightly, and asked, "What happened to Qi Miaoxuan? I just met him this morning."

The moment Gu Mo placed his hand on Tietou's arm, he felt that Tietou had suffered serious internal injuries.

Tietou said quickly, "My uncle may be fine now, but he is definitely in danger." Tietou took a deep breath and said, "The Nine Righteous Men of Qingzhou, Old Dalu Canyang is not dead. He has come to seek revenge and he will not let any of them go. Now that the Nine Righteous Men of Qingzhou are left with only Uncle Qi, he will definitely attack Uncle Qi."

Gu Mo sat on the stool and said slowly: "Iron Head... I don't even know if your name is real. How can I trust what you say?"

Tietou took a deep breath and said, "Master Gu, I swear to God, I will never lie to you. Let me tell you everything I know from beginning to end."

Gu Mo nodded slightly.

Tietou said slowly, "After the decisive battle at the Cliff of Broken Souls yesterday, the story of the Qingzhou Nine Righteous Men has been revived in Qingzhou City. I'm sure you, Master Gu and Lady Gu, have heard of it. I won't repeat it. I'll start with the split between the Qingzhou Nine Righteous Men..."

quickly,

Gu Mo and Gu Chudong heard a story similar to the one Master Dingchan had told before.

It was also the place where the Qilin monster appeared at the Cliff of Broken Souls. After Qingzhou Jiuyi went there to subdue the monster, he obtained two Qilin secret treasures. From then on, Qingzhou Jiuyi began to be cursed.

Afterwards, Lu Canyang became possessed by a demon.
The other eight members of the Qingzhou Nine Righteousness went to stop them. That night, Zhengqi Villa was wiped out, and three of the Qingzhou Nine Righteousness were killed on the spot by Lu Canyang.

From here on, what Tietou said was somewhat different from what Master Dingchan said.

In the story told by Master Dingchan, it was Qi Miaoxuan who used Ice Soul to suppress the demonic power and awakened Lu Canyang. After waking up, Lu Canyang could not bear the blow and jumped into the molten weapon-casting furnace.

In Tietou's story, Lu Canyang regained consciousness, realizing his situation was hopeless, and begged his sworn brothers to spare him. However, Master Dingchan and the others felt that Lu Canyang's crimes were grave, and refused to forgive him, insisting on exposing his guilt to the world.

So, once again, a battle took place.

During this process, Duan Changmei, Wang Dingtao and Chen Tong were killed, while Lu Canyang was thrown into the underground magma with his knife.

……

Tietou said, "No one could survive in the underground magma, including my master. No one doubted or thought Lu Canyang could still be alive. They even thought that the Gouchen Blade would eventually be dissolved by the magma over time.

Only my master refused to give up. He was a master of weapon forging, possessing an obsessive passion for divine weapons, especially the Gou Chen Demon Sword. He knew it would be the second divine weapon he could never create in his lifetime. He didn't believe the molten lava could melt the Gou Chen Sword.

So he hid in Mang Mountain and tried every possible way to salvage the goods. In order to facilitate his actions and avoid being disturbed, he bought Zhengqi Villa through the government. Then he pretended to be a ghost and scared those who wanted to live there. After that, the villa was gradually abandoned.

And hard work pays off. After a few years, the magma actually began to solidify and cool. My master finally found an opportunity to salvage the Gou Chen Blade from the inside. As he expected, the Gou Chen Blade was not damaged. After that, my master retired with the Gou Chen Blade.

For over thirty years, no one except Uncle Qi knew his whereabouts. Uncle Qi was able to know because my master took the initiative to see Uncle Qi when I was a child and had a serious illness and had sought medical treatment to no avail.

My master has been cultivating sword spirits for over thirty years. He firmly believes that weapons can give birth to souls, but he's never managed to cultivate a soul. Until a few days ago, my master suddenly left me his last words. He gave me three weapons, the same ones I sent to the Changmei Sword Sect, the Golden Sword Sect, and the Chen Family.

He told me that he was the one who caused the Gou Chen Demon Sword incident, which led to the deaths of his three brothers. He felt guilty, so he worked hard to forge three weapons as compensation and asked me to deliver them to the three families.

The Gou Chen Demon Blade will soon be given birth to a soul. He ordered me to send the Gou Chen Demon Blade to Zhengqi Villa and bury it at the location he designated, right where the molten weapon forging furnace once stood, in memory of Lu Canyang. And in memory of the Nine Righteous Men of Qingzhou!

Finally...my master..."

At this point, Tietou took a deep breath and said, "After he explained everything to me, he jumped into the weapon forging furnace and sacrificed his life for the sword."

Gu Chudong's eyes widened in shock, "Sacrifice for the sword? I've heard that some divine weapons require the forger to sacrifice his life in order to succeed. I always thought it was just a legend!"

Tietou shook his head slightly and said, "It's not a legend. There has always been a saying among weaponsmiths that divine weapons have spirits. A true divine weapon will develop spirituality. However, this is an act against heaven. Heaven will not tolerate it, and a thunderstorm will be sent down to destroy the divine weapon's spirit. Only when the weaponsmith sacrifices his life to protect the divine weapon from disaster and tribulation can the divine weapon be successful." Gu Chudong asked, "Then, after all these years, why did your master choose to sacrifice his life with the sword this year? Is it true that the Gou Chen Sword will only develop spirituality this year?"

Tietou shook his head and said, "My master said the time has come. He said he seemed to see his elder brother... He felt that his time might be up and his elder brother had come to take him.

After my master died with the sword, the Gou Chen Sword was indeed completed. However, my master had already predicted that the Gou Chen Sword was a demonic sword, an ominous blade, so he built a box in advance to seal the demonic sword.

Afterward, I descended the mountain, carrying the demon sword on my back. Following my master's instructions, I first delivered the weapons to the Changmei Sword Sect, the Golden Blade Sect, and the Chen family. Not long after, those three families were wiped out. I immediately realized something was amiss, suspecting someone was targeting me, or perhaps the Gou Chen Demon Sword.

I was extremely cautious along the way. When I arrived at Zhengqi Villa, I ran into you, Hero Gu, and the people from Xuannv Palace. At that time, I was actually suspicious of all of you. You all know what happened next. I played dumb and ran away."

Gu Chudong asked doubtfully, "Why are you running?"

Tietou said in a deep voice, "My master originally planned to secretly bury the Gou Chen Demon Blade underground, never to see the light of day. However, it's clear that there's no chance of that happening. I know full well that the Gou Chen Demon Blade is a rare, top-tier divine weapon. If it were to show up in the world, it would surely cause a bloody storm.

I'm a decent blacksmith, but my martial arts skills are average, so I didn't dare get involved. I naturally ran away when I found an opportunity. I thought I could get as far away as possible, but I didn't expect that the man behind the scenes wasn't after the Gou Chen Blade, but revenge.

When I ran to the foot of Mang Mountain, I was attacked by a mysterious man. That man was very strong and I had no power to fight back. "

As he spoke, Tietou raised the hand that no longer had a palm and said, "My fist was crushed by him. The Golden Bell Cover I cultivated has surpassed my master and reached the tenth level, but it was still easily shattered by that person's punch.

If it hadn't been for the cliff, I'd have been lucky enough to have hit a lot of branches after falling, and I'd have survived. But in the end, I recognized the other person's identity when I was thrown off the cliff.

Gu Mo frowned and asked, "Is it Lu Canyang?"

“Yes,” Tietou said, “When my master was still alive, he told me that before Lu Canyang was knocked down into the underground magma, the eight of them were at a disadvantage when they besieged him. This was because Lu Canyang’s martial arts skills were very high. He was a famous grandmaster in Qingzhou back then, and he was holding the Gou Chen Demon Sword, which made him even more powerful.

In the end, Lu Canyang was defeated because he had a backup plan when he forged the Gou Chen Demon Sword. He used it at the critical moment, mobilized the demonic power to backfire, pierced through Lu Canyang's Shaoshang acupoint, and then went straight through his heart meridian, thus defeating Lu Canyang.

My master said that the demonic power of the Gou Chen Demon Sword is special and strange. If someone's meridians are penetrated by the demonic power, it will be irreversible, the scars will remain forever, and the demonic power will always exist.

The man who killed me had a wound on his Shaoshang acupoint caused by the Gouchen Demon Blade. The Gouchen Demon Blade only appeared forty years ago. There is only one person in this world who has had his Shaoshang acupoint pierced by demonic power, and that is Lu Canyang.

Gu Chudong asked in surprise, "But didn't you say that Lu Canyang was thrown into the underground magma? How is he still alive?"

Tietou said in a deep voice, "I've been thinking about this question for the past few days while recuperating at the bottom of the cliff. After much thought, I can only come up with one explanation."

"What reason?"

"Qilin Holy Blood," Tietou said. "Back then, Qingzhou Jiuyi obtained two Qilin secret treasures: the Qilin Armor used to forge the Gou Chen Demon Blade, and the Qilin Holy Blood. The Qilin Holy Blood had always been in Lu Canyang's possession, but after his death, it never appeared again. I suspect the Qilin Holy Blood may have had some unknown effect, saving Lu Canyang.

The moment I saw through Lu Canyang's identity, I also realized that perhaps it wasn't Bai Ying who destroyed the Changmei Sword Sect, the Golden Blade Sect, and the Chen family, but Lu Canyang. It made sense for Bai Ying to steal the weapons of those three families, but it made no sense to destroy their entire families.

But if it was Lu Canyang, it would make sense. He was seeking revenge. So, he wanted to kill me because I was my master's successor.

I originally came to Qingzhou City because I heard that Master Yuxu of Xuannv Palace was here. I wanted to meet her and tell her that Lu Canyang was still alive. However, when I arrived yesterday, I heard about the Cliff of Broken Souls and learned that Master Dingchan and Master Yuxu were both dead.

Although they died in a duel, I always feel that Lu Canyang was definitely behind this incident, including my master. Before he died on the sword, he told me that he seemed to see his eldest brother. He felt that his time had come and his old friend had come to take him. Now that I think about it, he might have been fooled, or had some tricks used on him. After all, Lu Canyang was not dead at all.

Among the Nine Righteous Men of Qingzhou, the five surviving people, my master, Bai Ying, Master Dingchan, and Master Yuxu, all died one after another for various reasons. This can't be a coincidence. Uncle Qi must be in danger.

I've been thinking about it, and I really don't know what to do. With Lu Canyang's martial arts skills, if he wants to kill Uncle Qi, I can't think of anyone else in Qingzhou City who can protect Uncle Qi except you, Master Gu. So, I can only come to you for help."

Gu Mo thought for a moment, then stood up and said, "Chu Dong, prepare the horses, let's go catch up with Senior Qi."
