Mount Xiao, Great Hall of the Golden Bell
Du Shixun stood at the bottom of the stairs, his back ramrod straight as he said loudly, "Father, in the battle of Tribute Valley City two days ago, this child and a few elders killed a total of five Xuan Yue Protectors. Only Chunyu Ji and two others escaped!"
Most of the elders in the sect were present at this moment. Elder Lin coughed and said, "Young Sect Master, Xuan Yue has long since perished. There's no longer a protector!"
Du Shixun snorted, as if he couldn't be bothered to pay attention to him!
Elder Bai bowed to Sect Master Qiao and said, "Senior Brother, after this little brother investigated, these three people fled towards the Eastern Boundless Sea Realm. Right now, they're hiding in a remote immortal city called 'Ju Luo'. Do you need this little brother to send people to pursue and annihilate them?"
While Zhang Yan was in seclusion, the Zhongtai Sect sent disciples to gather immortal cities and pacify the people!
Before he died, Rong Junzhong had made a plan to expel the eight envoys and protectors from the sect. At the same time, he had asked the three southern sects to lend a helping hand and try to gain a foothold before plotting a plan to restore the sect!
Chunyu Ji had sent disciples to the south several times, but these three sects had misgivings because Zhang Yan was helping Zhongtai from behind. Thus, none of them had tried to take chestnuts out of the fire. After more than twenty years, they were gradually forced into a corner by Zhongtai. In a battle the day before, five Yuanying cultivators had died. The remaining people could only take their disciples and flee!
Sect Master Qiao weighed the pros and cons and finally shook his head. "The winds and waves of the Eastern Boundless Sea are high, and dragons often appear in the sea. If these three people hide in the immortal city and don't come out with restrictions, it will be difficult to break through unless we mobilize the strength of the sect. Since we've already chased them out of the Dong Sheng Continent, the northern lands are in my hands. There's no need to worry about them for now!"
At this moment, apart from the original Xuan Yue Mountain Gate that Zhenren He hadn't taken down, the rest of the land had been occupied by Zhongtai!
And the people of Zhongtai Zhou had long concluded that once Xuan Yue was destroyed, there was no need for this Zhenren He to continue holding on. He would definitely reincarnate in a few decades. As long as they waited patiently, this important land would be Zhongtai's sooner or later!
Du Shixun raised his eyebrows and cupped his fists. "Father, you need to remove the roots when you are cutting the grass!"
Elder Lin cast a sidelong glance at Du Shixun and said, "Young Sect Master is nothing more than a few stray dogs. Hiding in He Gang and struggling at death's door, what kind of storm can they stir up?"
Sect Leader Qiao nodded and said, "Although the two sects have merged, our sect is not without worries. If all the elders go out, who will take care of these immortal cities?"
Elder Yan also said, "Senior Brother, the most important thing now is to organize the Xuan Yue Dao Manual. If we can evolve the divine arts of Patriarch Dami, I, Zhong Tai, might be able to monopolize Dongsheng one day!"
Everyone in the hall nodded in agreement.
It was just that the two sects had been separated for thousands of years, and many of Xuan Yue's cultivation methods and Dao techniques had already changed. If they wanted to straighten out the clues and give it to their disciples to cultivate, this was not something that could be done in ten or twenty years, but at least one or two hundred years.
Du Shixun saw that they all spoke one after another, all of them opposing him to kill. Anger appeared on his face, and he suddenly turned around and strode out of the hall.
Sect Leader Qiao did not stop him, but instructed the disciple beside him, "Later, go call Xun 'er to the back hall!"
That disciple immediately left the side hall.
Before Du Shixun left the golden platform, he was called to guess that he had something to say to him in private, so he went to the back hall and waited for half an hour before he was called in. After entering the hall, he saw Sect Leader Qiao and Madam Zhao sitting in the hall, so he came up to greet them.
Sect Leader Qiao saw that he looked angry, as if he was still brooding over what had happened Just Now. He looked at Madam Zhao, and the latter understood. She opened her red lips and said, "This child does not need to blame your father. He had his reasons for doing this."
Du Shixun took a step forward, cupped his fists and said, "Father, Chunyu Ji and the others are Zhongtai's greatest trouble. If we do not get rid of them today, there will be trouble in the future. What could be more important than this?"
Sect Leader Qiao sighed and said, "How could I not know what this child is saying? It's just that there has been a difficult matter in the sect recently, and we cannot leave our hands for even a moment. After this matter is settled, we will think of a suitable time to go out to sea."
Du Shixun thought for a moment, and asked, "Father, are you talking about that dragon pillar?"
Sect Leader Qiao nodded and said, "Yes." At this point, his face slightly darkened, "The three sects are pressing hard, and it is easy to stay still, but not easy to move."
After more than twenty years, the restrictive formation in the dragon pillar had gradually disappeared, revealing a stone mansion inside. There were still a few scattered restrictive formations on it, and even if they did not try to remove them, within a few months, they would disappear on their own.
Everyone speculated that even if the mansion did not contain Founding Master Da Mi's Legacy, it must be an ancient immortal's cave.
This matter was supposed to be a secret, but who would have thought that the three southern sects found out about it, and sent an envoy to say that if there is a heavenly treasure, it does not belong to Zhong Tai alone.
Sect Leader Qiao knew that Zhong Tai was strong on the outside, but weak on the inside, he looked strong on the outside, but in reality he was weak. With the three sects joining forces, he would not be able to resist them, and if he gave them an excuse, it would not be a good thing, so he could only drag it on and not lift the seal.
Du Shixun said, "Why not invite Uncle-in-law and Zhang Zhenren over, this child and the two of them together, even if the three sects came, we would not be afraid."
Sect Leader Qiao sighed and said, "Zhang Zhenren has been in seclusion for more than twenty years, and did not show his face. I sent a few gifts back, but did not manage to find out when he will come out. As for your Uncle-in-law, father does not trust him."
Previously because of the Python Tribe incident, he suspected that Elder Hui Xuan had other plans, so he ignored him for the past twenty years, and Hui Xuan also did not return to the mountain, so the rumors of their discord spread like wildfire, and everyone knew about it.
Lady Zhao advised, "Husband, Hui Xuan was thinking of Zhong Tai at that time, and did not have any bad intentions. Besides, he is already at the end of his life, what other plans can he have? Why not invite him back, give him more benefits, and get rid of the previous grudges, so that we can use him? "
Sect Leader Qiao was silent.
At this moment, a disciple hurriedly came to report, "Sect Leader, yesterday two people barged into the dragon pillar forbidden grounds, and tried to open the formation to enter the stone residence."
Sect Leader Qiao was shocked, and stood up, "What, what happened to the stone residence?"
The day before yesterday, it was Du Shixun who led the group to attack Chunyu Ji, and to ensure victory, almost all the Yuanying cultivators in the sect were sent out, so there was only one elder guarding the dragon pillar, and it could be said to be very empty.
That disciple said, "The stone residence is safe, after a bitter fight with Elder Wei, he chased the intruders away, and did not let them succeed."
Sect Leader Qiao said in a deep voice, "Did you find out who the intruders were?"
That disciple said, "Elder Wei said that one of the figures was suspected to be Xing Fu Liu Xing Zhenren, who appeared on the dragon pillar."
"It's this person?"
When Sect Leader Qiao heard that it was not someone from the three southern sects, his heart slightly relaxed, and then he said with slight anger, "This kind of scoundrel dares to bully my Zhong Tai?"
Lady Zhao said, "Husband, sending people to guard the dragon pillar is not a long term solution, why not set up a formation to prevent outsiders from spying?"
Sect Leader Qiao waved his hand, and said, "How can I not know this, but it's better if the formation is not set up, if it is set up, it will give others the opportunity to gossip, and if the three southern sects use this to cause trouble, it will be hard to defend against them."
Lady Zhao lowered her head in thought, and after a while, her beautiful eyes lit up, as if she had gained some insight, and said, "I have an idea, maybe it can help husband solve this problem."
Sect Leader Qiao made an 'oh' sound, and said with a smile, "It's rare for Lady to have an idea, I want to hear it."
Lady Zhao said angrily, "Husband, please don't tease me. Your concubine's plan was based on what happened just now."
Sect Leader Qiao said, "Lady, please speak."
Lady Zhao stretched out her slender finger, and said, "Husband, after the two sects became one, because Priest Zhang is in closed door cultivation, we have not held a congratulatory banquet. Now that Chunyu Ji and the others have been chased away, why not use this as an excuse to hold a banquet, and invite the cultivators of the three sects as guests, and at the banquet, we can discuss how to deal with that immortal abode."
Sect Leader Qiao said unhappily, "What kind of idea is this, under the dragon pillar there may be a Daoist book written by Master Da Mi, it must not be given to outsiders."
Zhao Furen tugged at his sleeve and said snappily, "Husband, why are you in such a hurry? I have not finished what I wanted to say. I have my reasons for doing so. Since the matter of Husband and Hui Xuan not being on good terms is known even outside the sect, we might as well go with the flow. During the banquet, we can ask Hui Xuan to secretly steal the book."
Sect Leader Qiao's body shook, as if he had understood something, and quickly sat up straight, and said, "Continue."
Lady Zhao's jade face showed some satisfaction, and said, "At that time, all the cultivators of my Zhongtai will be at the banquet, if the Daoist book is stolen, the cultivators of the three sects will not blame us. After that, I will ask Hui Xuan to hide the Daoist book, and I will escape. When I leave, I will make a big fuss, and it will be best if the cultivators of the three sects chase after me, and then I will be cleared of suspicion."
Sect Leader Qiao thought for a while, and felt that this idea was feasible, and said, "Will Hui Xuan do what I want?"
Lady Zhao said, "He does not have much time left, the day of his reincarnation is near, and he is only a disciple, how can he be compared to me, Zhongtai? Is he not afraid that we will find the place of his reincarnation, and stop him from entering Dao in his next life? He will have to agree to this, even if he doesn't want to. "
Sect Leader Qiao stood up and walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, as if he was thinking. After a while, he suddenly stopped, and turned around, and said, "Lady, later you will personally go to Deep Abyss Sect, there is no need to ask Zhang Zhenren to come down the mountain."
Lady Zhao was startled, and said, "Husband is asking Zhang Zhenren to guard against Hui Xuan?"
Sect Leader Qiao said in a deep voice, "This matter is of great importance, we must guard against it. Moreover, with Zhang Zhenren coming, it will be good to intimidate the cultivators of the three sects, and not let them have any strange ideas."
Lady Zhao nodded, and said, "Good, it just so happens that I have found quite a lot of spiritual medicine that Zhang Zhenren needs, I will leave tomorrow morning, and set off for Deep Abyss."
Du Shixun said, "Your son is willing to go with Mother."
Sect Leader Qiao laughed, and said, "If you and your son go together, I think your sincerity is enough."
He then turned his head, and said to Lady Zhao, "That dragon pillar must not have any more flaws in the next few days, your husband needs to go and check it again, I will have to trouble Lady Zhao to take care of this matter."
Lady Zhao bowed, and sent Sect Leader Qiao out. She chatted with Du Shixun for a while, and then used the excuse that the time had come, and she needed to circulate her internal energy, and returned to the inner hall. When she reached the bed, she said to the maid, "Go and call Qu Changzhi here."
Not long after, Qu Changzhi came to the front of the bed, and he came up, and bowed deeply, saying, "Greetings to Lady Zhao."
Lady Zhao said, "Go back and tell your master that I will help him this time, on account of my late sister, I hope that he will not make any stupid moves again."
