Everything was just as Jun Changxiao had guessed.
If the Zhenyang County wanted to attack a county, they would definitely send people to arrange for the major powers in the county to attack.
The major sects and great evil sects in Heyang and Huayang counties had also made arrangements. Thus, when the war came, they all chose to seal their mountains and ignore the requests of the city lords.
How did they arrange it?
It was very simple. They brought people to cause trouble.
The two fifth-rate sects in Heyang County were beaten up by the experts sent by the Zhenyang County. Although the injuries weren't fatal, they were all injured.
Even if they really wanted to do something for the county, they couldn't do anything because the main forces of their sects were injured.
The two counties were clearly arranged. Since the Zhenyang County had the ambition to annex the Qingyang County, they would naturally make arrangements for the Blue Mountain Sect.
The old method.
They sent experts to challenge the Blue Mountain Sect openly.
Moreover, they sent three Martial Kings and more than twenty Wuzong.
They stood on the Blue Mountain Sect's training field with their chests puffed out proudly.
"Sect Master Yu."
An old man in his sixties or seventies sneered, "We haven't seen each other for at least fifty years, right?"
He was called Shui Tingfeng.
He was the First Elder of the fourth-rate Spirit Stream Sect in Zhenyang County. He was also the leader of the troublemakers.
In the main hall, the Blue Mountain Sect's Sect Master, who was wearing a loose robe, frowned and said, "You and I were at the same level back then. I didn't expect you to be a Martial King now."
"Hahaha!"
Shui Tingfeng laughed and said, "I'm from a sixth-rate county and a fourth-rate sect. Isn't it normal for me to become a Martial King?"
He and the Blue Mountain Sect's Sect Master were old acquaintances.
They had once fought in the largest sect competition held in Southwest Yangzhou.
At that time, both of them were Wuzong and were equally matched. In the end, they lost to Sect Master Yu.
Until today.
Shui Tingfeng had not only become a Martial King, but also a fourth-rate Martial King. Not to mention Zhenyang County, he could be considered a top expert in the entire Southwest Yangzhou.
"Elder Shui."
Another Martial King beside him grinned and said, "The aura of the Blue Mountain Sect's Sect Master is only at the peak of Wuzong. You lost to him back then."
He was Zhuang, an elder of the Spirit Stream Sect.
Although his name was ordinary, he was a rank three Martial King.
As for the other Martial King, he came from the fourth rate Duanshui Pavilion of the Zhenyang County. His cultivation was only that of a rank one Martial King.
More than twenty Wuzong experts were from the Spirit Stream Sect and the Duanshui Pavilion respectively. Their strength was at the eighth or ninth level.
They stood on the Martial Arts Practice Field and released their auras without restraint, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
Ma Yunteng, Wang Donglin, and the other elders standing behind Sect Leader Yu all frowned.
These people did not come with good intentions!
Shui Tingfeng did not beat around the bush and said bluntly, "We came to Cang Mountain Sect this time to ask about martial arts."
"Seek guidance on martial arts?"
Sect Leader Yu sneered and said, "Zhenyang County's army of two hundred thousand is currently attacking Heyang County and Huayang County. I'm afraid you're here under orders."
The Cangshan Sect had also heard about what had happened outside.
Many times, they had even discussed whether they should help or close the mountain gates when the enemy forces invaded Qingyang County.
In the end, before they could reach an agreement, Zhenyang County had already sent someone over to make arrangements.
"You can say that."
Shui Tingfeng did not hide anything and said, "Our County Chief's intention is to wait for the army to arrive, then close the mountain gates and pretend that we don't know or see anything."
Sect Leader Yu sneered, "Has your Spirit Stream Sect already submitted to the County Chief of Zhenyang County?"
Factions had no direct relationship with counties.
For example, although the County Chief of Zhenyang County could control eight cities, he had no authority over a sect or even a large sect like the Cangshan Sect.
"County Chief Zhuo has great ambitions. Our Spirit Stream Sect is naturally willing to assist him and help him achieve great feats," Shui Tingfeng said.
Sect Leader Yu said indifferently, "The County Chief of Zhenyang County has ignored the treaty and repeatedly declared war on the surrounding counties, causing countless lives to be destroyed. You're helping the evildoer!"
"Hahaha!"
Shui Tingfeng laughed and said, "The so-called treaty exists in name only. Which county in Southwest Yangzhou doesn't have ulterior motives? County Chief Zhuo's campaign this time is to establish a stronger system so that the people of the small counties can live a stable life."
"Bullsh * t!"
Ma Yunteng could not help but say angrily, "Heyang City and Huayang City were attacked by you and then massacred. Is this what you call a stable life?"
Shui Tingfeng said without changing his expression, "They chose to resist, so they must pay the price. Zhenyang County only needs people who are loyal to Zhenyang County."
Sect Leader Yu said coldly, "If we're not on the same page, then it's pointless to say anything more. Everyone, please leave."
Shui Tingfeng smiled coldly and said, "Sect Leader Yu, we came all the way here to learn martial arts. Is your Cangshan Sect going to refuse?"
Ma Yunteng said, "Three Martial Kings came here not to learn martial arts but to bully the weak, right?"
Shui Tingfeng smiled and said, "You can think of it that way."
At first, he was still polite, but now, he was just short of directly saying that they were here to cause trouble!
Sect Leader Yu and the elders were furious.
The two fourth-rate sects of Zhenyang County had gone too far!
"Ma Yunteng."
At this moment, a middle-aged man walked out, pointed at him and said, "Do you dare to come down and fight with me?"
This was an outer elder of the Spirit Stream Sect. His cultivation had reached the peak of Wuzong. He could not stand Ma Yunteng's words, so he decided to start with him.
After Jun Changxiao's guidance, although Elder Ma had broken through to Wuzong, he had just entered the third grade. He definitely could not defeat a peak Wuzong.
"I'll fight with you."
Wang Donglin jumped and landed on the martial arts field.
His strength was at the peak of Wuzong, so he could fight with the outer elder of the Spirit Stream Sect.
The expert surnamed Luo strode forward and said proudly, "Please."
…
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
While the experts of the two sects of Zhenyang County were causing trouble at Cangshan Sect, Jun Changxiao was riding on the Hurricane Wolf King with Lu Qianqian and Ye Xingchen.
Four hours later, the three of them arrived at Cangshan Mountain, but they did not see any disciples guarding the gate.
"Let's go!"
Jun Changxiao directly rode the Hurricane Wolf King up the mountain road. He jumped and flew over the gate of Cangshan Sect and landed in the outer courtyard.
Boom!
At this moment, a loud sound was heard, and Ma Yunteng was sent flying.
Jun Changxiao, who had just stabilized himself, used his spiritual sense to catch Elder Ma in advance. He immediately used the Cloud Treading Steps to fly up and catch Elder Ma.
"Huh?"
The experts of the Spirit Stream Sect and Duanshui Pavilion looked at him in surprise.
Who was this person?
He was riding on the Hurricane Wolf King!
"Thud!"
Jun Changxiao landed on the ground, holding Ma Yunteng. There was a palm print on his chest, and his face was unusually pale. Obviously, he was seriously injured.
Outside the martial arts field, Wang Donglin, who was the first to fight, was being supported by a disciple. It was obvious that he had lost the fight with Martial Artist Luo.
"Sect … Sect Leader …"
As soon as Ma Yunteng opened his mouth, he could not suppress the blood in his body. He directly spat out blood and fainted.
This kind old man had stopped others from disturbing his epiphany when he was recruited by the Hundred Sects. He had also helped the Iron Bone many times, so their relationship was very good. Now that he was knocked unconscious, how could Jun Changxiao accept it?
He gently put Ma Yunteng on the ground, then raised his head and glanced at the experts of the two sects of Zhenyang County. He murderously said, "Since you're here, don't go back."
