A Pair of Eclipse Swords
Chapter : 27 – Catastrophe
Just when the echo of the grandmother's voice disappeared, the new student settlement that had become rubble became silent. Only the sound of the fire that hungrily continues to devour the wood of the house alone as a lonely breaker.
A moment passed, they heard the sound of someone running hurriedly from the west. Simultaneously these people prepared and pulled out the weapons. But how shocked they were to see who had come.
"Sung Han!" Gu Ren seemed to have come to know that the boy was fine. Although many parts of his clothes were tattered, but at least the eclipse sword was still in place.
Sung Han was bored, while holding Yu Ping to climb the hill in a hurry, plus tired after being ganged up, it was quite tiring as well.
People were also relieved to know that the Solar Eclipse Sword was not taken away by people. But Sung Han ignored all of that. His eyes stared around wide-eyed, as did Yu Ping who looked mute.
"This...is this really our place?" Yu Ping spoke like a delirious person.
Sung Han quickly directed his gaze towards the house which was on a tall tree. A tree house that is located the highest compared to other tree houses.
"Yu Ceng!" his heart was relieved to see that the house was still fine. Without a second thought, he ran to the tree house and within a few jumps, he had already reached the top.
"Yu Ceng!" sung Han shouted while opening the door. And the relief of his heart was destroyed instantly when he found out that the door of the house was not locked at all.
The room there was very dark, because the fire that raged far below, also above this house leaves very lush to be able to cover the moonlight, then the room looked dim.
Sung Han quickly lowered the confused Yu Ping, he walked to one corner of the room to light a candle. He brought the candle into the house.
His legs felt limp when he learned of the many muddy footprints seen on the floor of the house. The footprints led to Yu Ping and Yu Ceng's room. Sung Han's premonition worsened.
He hurriedly looked into Yu Ceng's room and....
"Yu Ceng!!!!!"
Yu Ping was very surprised, he walked up to his room and looked. As soon as he saw the appearance of someone there, this little girl screamed and collapsed unconscious.
Down there, people were shocked to hear the screams of the two men. Only then did they realize that it turned out that Yu Ceng and Yu Ping's house did not burn at all. Gu Ren invited Bao Leng and Pat Cake to take a look.
Arriving at the doorway, he saw Sung Han who was glued to where he stood. Yu Ping was unconscious. Gu Ren and his two companions approached, and as soon as they saw, their hearts fell.
"Yu Ceng.." they murmured with grief.
...****************...
Last night, when Sung Han and Yu Ping entered, Yu Ceng had already been found lying on his bed in a lifeless state. Even better, without any clothes.
His head was drowning facing the door. His eyes were not yet fully closed, but Sung Han could see countless traces of dry tears on both cheeks. Those eyes that had not closed completely, were full of sadness.
What made people concerned was that, between Yu Ceng's legs, there was not a little fresh blood. Also.ah, no need to continue.
That night, Sung Han cried. This was his third cry after losing Tang Qian and Xiao Shi Yong. Let people think of him as a crybaby, back then Sung Han did not care at all about his pride.
In the morning, people were working in silence. The settlement of the new disciples seemed crowded, but not a single sound was heard other than the sound of the person making the grave hole.
The Black Dragon is mourning.
Residential settlements that were previously full of houses, this time were replaced with piles of rubble.
While the land that was there, was already filled with mounds of earth and simple tombstones. That was the grave of the thirty new disciples who left only two survivors. It was Yu Ping and someone who went to report to Gu Ren when the calamity occurred.
Gu Ren did not want a hole for many people. He wants everyone to have a decent grave with one man's hole.
Sung Han clasped his hands together in front of Yu Ceng's stone which was the highest among the others. As for Yu Ping, just sitting next to Sung Han with a blank and dazed expression.
"Uncle Gu Ren.sorry for my delay" he said without turning to the person he was talking to. "If only I had come sooner...."
Sung Han smiled bitterly, "I've always been dear to grief....."
Gu Ren looked on with a frown. He clenched his hands, holding back his anger to swear at the troublemaker's Devil's Heart.
Sung Han said again after a moment of silence, "Uncle, who do you think is wrong here?"
"Devil Heart." Gu Ren replied quickly almost without pause.
But it turned out that Bao Leng had other thoughts. He replied rather loudly, but because he remembered the grief of his association, he was still a little soft.
"Of course you're the culprit!" the story pointed to Sung Han, "If you don't bring that damn sword, it won't be this disaster!"
Sung Han widened his eyes in shock. But the next second he smiled wryly, more precisely a cold smile.
"If that's your opinion, then I'll turn with the truth. Think about it, what would it be like five years ago if you weren't playing crazy just killing our people?" what he meant was the clash of the White Eagle with the Black Dragon in the forest at that time.
"If that never happens, then the White Eagles will never clash with you. That way they still exist and until now until the future I will remain their lackey. Automatically, I've never met a teacher and got this sword."
These sentences are spoken with slightly changed tone and intonation. Gu Ren and Bao Leng shuddered.
"So...who was the culprit? Aren't you alone?"
Sung Han turned his head, and how shocked were also the trepidation of the two of them when he met Sung Han's eyes. At first glance, he saw something terrible, what was it but forced these two people to take their eyes off.
Similarly to Sung Han, the death of Yu Ceng as well as all the new students, plus the baseless accusations of Bao Leng and his ego's indulgence, made his anger arise.
All the new students were his loved ones. They all treated him well, so that the soft bottom of his heart had automatically assumed they were all no longer other people.
But on the other hand, Bao Leng even casually placed the blame on him. It really made him angry and thought Bao Leng did not know himself.
He got up slowly, but a second later, his hand had already pulled out the eclipse sword and the horizontal slash that was pointing towards Bao Leng's neck was inevitable.
"Trangs!!"
"Sung Han..hold!"
Sung Han was shocked, if the powerful heirloom sword was somehow strong enough to be held back by someone's sword. That person was Jade Shi who had somehow come from nowhere had already pulled out Gu Ren's sword and held back Sung Han's sword. The next second, the sword in Jade Shi's hand fell out like a grain of dust.
"What an amazing thing! Sacred heirloom!" his heart screamed in admiration.
Seeing the arrival of Jade Shi, Sung Han took a step back. "Try to explain, why is this one student so insolent in using his mouth? Was he the bandit leader you conquered?"
Sung Han already knew the origin of the Black Dragon and the difference between the old disciple and the new disciple. He dared to say so.
"Sung Han, calm your mind and heart. It's all a disaster, there's nothing to blame here. Let's talk to find a way out together."
"There's nothing more we can talk about!!"
The sword flashed and...
"The braaatt!!"
"Aackhhh!!"
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
SERIATE
