Chapter 1459: The End (2)

She wasn't a cold woman but these Pillars raised by Duan He were truly inhumane. They not only killed humans, they did every cruel thing possible in the fields of dark arts. People like these did not deserve a decent death!

Fu Yu Sheng was waiting for his wife to finish dealing with the dark arts practitioner, he really wanted to help her but soon realised that there was a big difference between learning things and applying them.

While he was dealing with small arrays outside, Song Yan had already dealt with the dark arts practitioner as for using Xiao Bai, Song Yan asked him to keep him hidden for the time being.

She told him if Duan He found out that they had regained the memories of the life where Duan He had killed them, it would be troublesome.

'We can deal with the pillars one by one for the time being because she doesn't know anything and that gives us a little more advantage over her. However, if you use Xiao Bai, it will not take long for her to find out the truth.'

Song Yan had explained the matter so cleanly to him that Fu Yu Sheng could not refute her. "Is it done?" He turned to look at Song Yan, Xiao Bai who was lazily curled around his neck and also raised his head and stared at Song Yan who nodded.

"Let's go back home," she said to Fu Yu Sheng, her eyes fell on the ruins where the dark master was hiding and she added in a subtle voice, "His little friends will soon come looking for him."

Of course, Song Yan could deal with the Pillars at once but that would give Duan He the chance to run away. She did not want that woman who had escaped death again and again to escape this time around.

Fu Yu Sheng nodded and the two of them drove away from the ruins where the dark art master had been cultivating for a long time.

It was a good thing that they left the ruins as an hour later, Pillar Eight and Pillar Seven came to look for Pillar Nine's corpse and their expressions turned solemn when they looked at the mess on the floor.

"He was killed too.." Pillar Eight agitatedly spoke, he picked up the cinnabar sword that Pillar Nine had placed on the altar while practising dark arts and then threw it on the ground.

They could not understand who was targeting them, at first they thought it was Gu Chenyi but now they were certain that it was not him as Gu Chenyi never made a move other than launching a hunting party for Shen Yu.

He couldn't have killed the Pillars, so who was the one who was going around killing the pillars?

Pillar Seven also had a sullen expression on her face. With so many pillars dying one after the other, their mistress was getting weaker and weaker by the day.

Now she could no longer get up from the bed as her spiritual energy had been torn and splintered into pieces.

Duan He's soul was broken because of the curse that was given to her centuries ago and it was by connecting her soul with the souls of the pillars that she was able to stay alive till now.

With the Pillars dying one by one, her soul was also returning to its original state.

Even the Pillars could feel their energy getting exhausted as their souls were connected to Duan He.

"What should we do now?" Pillar Eight asked Pillar Seven who pursed her lips and said, "First ask everyone to change their hideouts as well as their residences. It seems like we were tracked down."

However, who did it...it still remained a mystery to them.

Pillar Eight and Pillar Seven looked at the mess of molten blood and flesh on the ground before taking out a teleportation talisman and vanishing from the ruins; however, they did not know that their clothes now had a lingering scent of the heavenly snake.

***********

Song Yan chuckled when Xiao Bai told her about the Pillars leaving and changing their hideouts. She knew that they would try to save their measly lives but -- was it even possible with her and the Gu sect looking out for them?

She immediately alerted Gu Chenyi about the move which led to the death of three more pillars in a matter of three weeks. Even though a few celestial masters from the Gu sect died, Song Yan was not surprised.

After all, the higher the rank of the Pillars the more powerful they would be.

"I will be taking care of Pillar Two," Gu Chenyi told Song Yan on the phone while Song Yan mediated and tried to collect as much as spiritual energy possible before attacking the remaining pillars.

Song Yan opened her eyes once she was certain that she had regained the spiritual energy that she had lost and said to Gu Chenyi, "What about Shen Yu? Are you not going to deal with that woman?"

A sigh came from the other end of the call before Gu Chenyi said to Song Yan, "Who said that? Have you not heard about savouring the sweetest delight at last."

....?

"I never knew that you were such a pervert master," Song Yan remarked causing Gu Chenyi to laugh.

"You are one to say...you can easily barge inside of Duan He's sect and kill everyone in your way but you are killing the pillars one by one making that woman panic."

"You even asked my Gu sect to make a move which caused more and more confusion. Isn't it because you want that woman to be pushed into a corner and feel terrified for her life?"

Song Yan neither agreed nor denied the accusation. After all, she was indeed enjoying the sight of Duan He being filled with worry. Though she had no idea why that woman was not making a move herself, Song Yan felt it was better this way.

At least when she goes to meet that woman, Duan He would be waiting for her.

"You can do whatever you want to master Gu," Song Yan stood up from the floor and then summoned Fang Yanli along with her ghost disciples. "But don't forget to take care of Pillar Second tonight. As I will be dealing with One and three."

Xiao Bai had tracked their movements and the two pillars were together at the moment, Song Yan did not know what the two of them were doing together but she was not going to let this opportunity slide.

"I understand," Gu Chenyi spoke as he looked at the man in front of him. Blood seeped from the forehead of the man as he hovered in the air. He was tied by golden chains which had sharp

spikes on them.

Every time the man moved a spike would grow out of the chains and embed itself in the body

of the man.

"I will make sure that Pillar Two dies tonight."

Gu Chenyi ended the call as he looked at Pillar Two who coughed out a mouthful of blood.

"Oh dear, I would suggest not moving. Because the more you move the sooner you will die." "You--why are you doing this?" Pillar Two gritted out painfully. "We have never made a move against your sect, did we?"

"But you had the plans to do so, right? Isn't this why you accepted that woman, Shen Yu?" Gu Chenyi spoke with a calm voice, his long hair fluttered in the wind and so did his white robes. He looked at the dark arts practitioner in front of him with his head tipped back. He said, "I am the kind of man who would rather squash bugs before they make trouble for me." He made the mistake of being kind once, as Song Yan told him but he would never make the same mistake again because that would mean losing his life as well as the woman whom he adored and loved.

Pillar two looked at the man hatefully. He muttered, "If there is a next life, I will not let you

alone---"

His words came to an abrupt stop as the spikes which were growing from the golden chain pierced his heart.

"Another life?" Gu Chenyi laughed. "With the amount of sins that you have committed, you still think that you will get another chance?"

He looked at the bleeding corpse which had been pierced in every way possible before hurling

a talisman that ignited at once causing the course to turn into nothing but a black fragment of

ashes.

While Gu Chenyi had taken care of Pillar Two, Song Yan arrived at the abandoned village where Pillar One and Pillar Third were hiding.

She glanced at the ruins of the village and sneered before saying, "Have you not heard about welcoming your guests politely?"
