Chapter 1718: Chapter 1718: How Could It Not Ignite

Several disciples with higher aptitude also entered.

“I really didn’t do anything,”

Brother Hao felt that he was truly wronged, as he diligently watched over the Everlasting Lamps in the Everlasting Hall every day, never once neglecting his duties.

It wasn’t his fault that Gu Qingyu’s Everlasting Lamp went out, was it?

“Brother Hao, please bear with it for a while, I don’t think this matter is so simple,” a junior brother standing beside Brother Hao said in a lowered voice.

“What do you mean?”

Brother Hao turned his head to look at the junior brother.

Did he mean that Gu Qingyu had died, which was why her Everlasting Lamp had gone out?

It couldn’t be. Gu Qingyu wasn’t going to any dangerous place, she was just going out for training with Brother Zheen and the others, with everyone prioritizing her protection. How could they possibly allow Gu Qingyu to die?

Even he himself had thought that he must have been neglectful, causing the Everlasting Lamp to go out.

“The character that Great Elder has fostered in Gu Qingyu is well-known among us Qingyun Sect members, and the outside world is not as simple as you think,” the junior brother continued.

Otherwise, why would the other Everlasting Lamps not go out, but only Gu Qingyu’s did?

Hearing this, Brother Hao’s eyes dimmed. If what the junior brother said was true, then it had nothing to do with him, but he might still be held accountable by the Great Elder.

He was really unlucky.

Inside the Everlasting Hall, the Sect Leader and the Great Elder approached Gu Qingyu’s Everlasting Lamp together. Looking at the lamp’s oil which hadn’t decreased by much, logically, it shouldn’t have gone out.

“Junior brother, try to light Qingyu’s Everlasting Lamp,” he said to the Great Elder.

The Great Elder nodded slightly and, concentrating Original Soul energy in his hand, he touched a flame to the wick. But strangely, no matter how he tried, the wick wouldn’t catch fire.

He then gathered even more powerful Original Soul energy to ignite the wick, but it was all in vain.

“How can this be? Why can’t the Everlasting Lamp be lit?” The Great Elder murmured to himself, continuing to place Spiritual Fire on the wick with his hand.

And the face of the Sect Leader beside him was becoming increasingly grim. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

If the wick could not be ignited, it could only mean one thing—that Gu Qingyu was no longer in this world.

But before leaving, he had repeatedly told Mo Zheng to protect Gu Qingyu at all costs. How could he have let Gu Qingyu just die? He knew that if Gu Qingyu died, his position as Chief Disciple could be in jeopardy.

If the Great Elder opposed it, Mo Zheng’s succession as Sect Leader would be indefinitely delayed.

Unless…

He raised his eyes and glanced indifferently at the Great Elder.

Unless the Great Elder were gone too, then there would be no more constraints.

“Senior brother, it seems that Qingyu has encountered trouble outside,” he said solemnly to the Great Elder.

“Impossible!”

The Great Elder couldn’t believe it; his granddaughter was very capable and with so many Life-saving Talismans he had given her, how could anything happen?

Even if Mo Zheng had an accident, she wouldn’t.

Thinking this, he took two steps back and walked towards Mo Zheng’s Everlasting Lamp, only to see that Mo Zheng’s Everlasting Lamp shone brightly, without the slightest possibility of being extinguished.

A surge of anger rose within him, and, raising his hand, he sent a blast of Original Soul energy towards Mo Zheng’s Everlasting Lamp.
