Daoist Peng was a Grotto-Heaven cultivator. At this moment, there was a fierce light in his eyes as he stared straight at Xu Que. He had a terrifying aura.
Lu Junyang was still indifferent. His expression was calm, but Jiao Yuanliang was startled. How could he say anything?
Immortal Peng coldly glanced at the two, then bowed to Zhang Yan and said, "Peng Wenyin greets Hall Master Ji Zhen."
Zhang Yan raised his sleeves and cupped his hands, "Zhenren Peng is too polite."
Immortal Peng took a light breath and seemed to calm down a little. He said, "Hall Master Du Zhen, Just Now You're returning to the mountain gate. It's really presumptuous of me to stop you, but I have to come because of a matter. I hope Hall Master Du Zhen can forgive me."
Zhang Yan smiled faintly and said, "I know why Zhenren Peng is here. Is it about Zhenren Su in the past?"
Immortal Peng looked up and said in a low voice, "Because of this, I will never forget the revenge of killing my teacher."
When Yan Changsheng broke out of the sect, he slaughtered many disciples of the aristocratic families. Apart from Peng Yuzhou, who was not in the sect for some reason and escaped, almost all of the disciples of the ten great aristocratic families were killed by him.
Apart from that, there were also many cultivators from influential families that were casually killed by him. In particular, the Su Clan had a grudge against his deceased disciple, so he purposely killed his way to the Su Clan. His actions were also extremely ruthless.
At that time, Su Mo was the Enlightened Master of the Su Clan. Even though he knew how powerful Yan Changsheng was, he had no choice but to step forward and fight with him. He was just one move behind, and in the end, he was defeated and died.
Daoist Peng was his direct disciple.
After this matter, because the Su Clan no longer had Daoist Heavenly Abode to hold the fort, the powerful cultivators in the clan were all slaughtered, and the clan gradually declined. In order to revive the clan, all the good things were given to the clan members first.
Because Daoist Peng was not a member of the Su Clan. Moreover, she was born in Han Pu and didn't have much of a relationship with the Su Clan. Therefore, Su Mo had promised to give her a cave abode and treasures for her cultivation. It was also taken back by the Su Clan.
Without the external objects of cultivation, no matter how talented she was, she would not be able to survive. There was nothing he could do. It was Sect Leader Qin who couldn't bear to see her vanish into the crowd. Hence, he gave her a place to cultivate in the name of guarding the Small Devil Realm. Later on, she was able to form her Grotto-Heaven because of this.
"Master's kindness is deep. Every time I think about it, I can't help but feel the pain in my heart. I hate that I can't personally avenge Master. I can only lament that my previous meritorious service was not enough, and because of Sect Leader's admonition, it was difficult for me to carry out the mission. Today, Du Zhen Hall Master has killed this person, removing a great danger for our Qincang, and also ending the enmity between my Master and Master. Please accept my, Peng Wenyin's, bow to me. "
Speaking of this, Immortal Peng's expression became solemn. He bent his knees and bowed deeply, then bowed three times.
Zhang Yan turned his body slightly. He said, "Zhenren Peng's words are too serious. This time I am doing this under the orders of the sect leader. Zhenren must thank me. I should also thank Sect Leader. "
Immortal Peng straightened up, shook his head gently, and said, "You don't have to be modest, Du Zhen Hall Master. Yan Changsheng has cultivated for nearly three thousand years. Even though his cultivation was damaged after breaking the Four Symbols Formation, his ferocious power is still there. Even his name is taboo, and few people in the sect dare to mention it in private. If it was someone else, how would they dare to do this? How would they dare to do this? "
Jiao Yuanliang was secretly shocked when he heard this. He also knew that his Master had offended many people in the past, and when he broke out of the sect. He even killed a Grotto-Heaven cultivator from Qincang School with his own hands. However, he had no way of knowing the specific details.
He did not expect that Zhenren Peng was actually his disciple.
Thinking that there was a Grotto-Heaven Zhenren in the sect who had a feud with his Master for killing his Master, and looking at his posture, it seemed that Zhenren Peng had come specifically to seek revenge. His scalp was numb, and he was anxious.
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Zhenren Yan has already passed away. Zhenren Peng went to talk to I about this matter because of his two disciples."
Zhenren Peng said, "That's right. Although Yan Changsheng is dead, his disciples are still alive. Zhenren Peng, can you allow me to bring them back to vent my hatred?"
As she said this, she looked at Lu Wenyang and Jiao Yuanliang again. There was a piercing chill in her eyes. Jiao Yuanliang could not help but take a few steps back.
Zhang Yan waved his sleeves and turned the two people behind him. He said indifferently, "I don't care what happened in the past, but I brought these two people back from outside the mountain. Naturally, I will protect them. Please forgive me, Zhenren Peng. I can't agree to this matter."
The fact that the Sect Leader wanted to cultivate the younger generation with all his strength was not something that could be publicized, so he did not say it out loud. He only took care of this matter.
Zhenren Peng saw that although his tone was calm, the meaning behind it was obvious that there was no room for discussion. He could not help but have a complicated expression. After a moment of silence, he said, "Since Hall Master Du Zhen insists on protecting these two people, I, Peng Wenyin, am not someone who doesn't know when to advance or retreat. I don't dare to be rude in front of Hall Master Du Zhen. Let's drop this matter today."
Her eyes then turned to Lu Junyang and Jiao Yuanliang, and she said coldly, "If you two have the ability, you can hide in the mountain gate."
After saying this, she nodded to Zhang Yan. Then, she waved her sleeves and turned into a conveyance light, returning to the cave residence.
At this moment, Zhang Yan heard a voice in his ears. "Zhenren Peng, please forgive me for my rude behavior today. I know Lu Junyang's talent. Since you brought him back to the mountain gate, he will certainly have a good fortune. However, you killed his master, so there is a knot in your heart. In the future, it will be inevitable that there will be discord. Zhenren Peng, Zhenren Peng, has avenged my master, but I have no way to repay you. Today, let me be the villain."
The voice became softer and softer. Gradually, the conveyance light went far away.
Zhang Yan's eyes flashed slightly. He had guessed that Sect Leader Qin should have seen every move in Qincang School. Zhenren Peng came to them with great fanfare, but Sect Leader Qin was indifferent. Obviously, this matter was not as simple as it seemed.
Only now did he know that Zhenren Peng came to return the favor.
This favor was actually not small. If Lu Junyang had not achieved anything, it would have been fine. However, he knew that the Sect Leader had taken a fancy to his aptitude and would do his best to cultivate him. If he were to break through to the next realm in the future, Zhenren Peng would have to bear the risk of becoming enemies with a cave.
However, after thinking about it carefully, Zhenren Peng lived in the Small Cold World and had not yet opened up a cave. He did not have any powerful magic treasures. As for cultivation treasures, Zhang Yan, as the Master of the Du Zhen Hall, naturally did not lack them. He could not take out a big gift to thank him, so he could only return the favor with a favor.
Even if Lu Junyang could not see through Zhenren Peng's behavior, it would not be difficult for him to guess it in the future. However, even if he knew, Zhang Yan's protection today was completely out of his own will, so he must accept it.
Zhang Yan pondered for a moment. He turned his head and said to Lu and Jiao, "The aristocratic families in the sect have a grudge against Zhenren Peng. From now on, you must be careful when you walk in the sect.
Lu Junyang cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your advice, Zhenren."
Jiao Yuanliang also thanked him repeatedly. However, he was still uneasy. At the same time, he could not help but feel lucky. He thought to himself, "Fortunately, Zhenren Peng is strong and has a very high status in the sect. If it was someone else, I can't guarantee that they would not give face to Zhenren Peng."
Zhang Yan nodded and said, "Now, follow me to see Zhenren Peng first."
He rolled up his sleeves, and the two involuntarily followed him to the Floating Heavenly Palace. Not long after, they landed on the platform. A boy came up to greet them and said respectfully, "Zhenren Zhang, Zhenren Peng is in the hall to welcome you."
Zhang Yan said with concern, "The two of you wait here."
The two of them agreed.
Zhang Yan waved his sleeves and entered. Not long after, he arrived at the hall. Not long after, he saw Zhenren Peng standing on the jade platform. He cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Zhenren Peng. Zhang Yan is back to report."
With a smile on his face, Zhenren Peng raised his hand and said, "Hall Master Du Zhen, you don't have to be so courteous. Please sit down and talk."
Zhang Yan expressed his thanks and waited for Sect Leader Qin to sit down. Then, he went to his seat and sat down. After that, he skipped over the details and roughly explained the situation.
After listening, Zhenren Peng stroked his beard and sighed. He said, "Since the beginning of Senior Brother Yan's cultivation, many people in the sect have regarded him as an anomaly. However, he has never cared about the opinions of others. He still does what he wants. At that time, my senior brothers and I admired him very much. Now that I think about it, his grace and elegance are still vivid in our minds."
After sighing for a while, his expression returned to his usual calm. He asked, "Senior Brother Yan's Primordial Spirit is safe?"
Zhang Yan replied, "I made the decision on my own. I have already asked him to stay in a safe place."
Zhenren Peng nodded and said, "That's good."
He knew that this Senior Brother of his was arrogant and would rather end his own life than meet him in this kind of situation. Thus, he didn't mention the matter of meeting him.
Zhang Yan said, "Now that he is dead, all the grudges in the past should be settled. Disciple thinks that if Lv Junyang's cultivation is successful in the future, then I will let him take care of him."
Zhenren Peng thought for a while and said, "Hall Master Du Zhen is appropriate. Let's deal with it accordingly."
Zhang Yan bowed and said, "Back then, Zhenren Peng took away six True Treasures. I have followed Zhenren Peng's orders and brought them all back."
He shook his sleeves and six streaks of light flew out. The moment they appeared, six streaks of light from restrictions landed on the roof of the hall and firmly locked them in place, not allowing them to move.
On the True Treasures, six silhouettes appeared. They were all panic-stricken and exclaimed out loud.
Zhang Yan looked on indifferently and didn't say a word.
Zhenren Peng said expressionlessly, "Do you know your sins?"
When the six True Spirits heard that, most of them didn't know what to do. However, there was a smart one, the middle-aged Confucian, who knelt down on the spot and kowtowed, "Zhenren Peng, please forgive us. That year, we only followed Zhenren Peng because we wanted to live. Thinking about it now, we really regret it. From now on, we are willing to fight to the death for the sect to forgive our sins."
When he said that, the other True Spirits immediately came to their senses. They all knelt down and begged for mercy.
Zhenren Peng said indifferently, "Since that is the case, I will place a restriction in your True Spirits as punishment. Are you all willing?"
The middle-aged Confucian's body trembled. If he placed a restriction, he wouldn't be able to escape from them in the future. Even if he really wanted to merge them into his body and break into his Grotto-Heaven, he wouldn't be able to resist.
However, the current situation didn't allow them to refuse.
He gritted his teeth and knelt down, his head on the ground, "I am willing to listen to Zhenren Peng's punishment."
When the other five saw this, they had no choice but to kneel down and agree.
Only then did Zhenren Peng's expression soften. He turned to look at Zhang Yan and said with a smile, "This time, Hall Master Du Zhen went through a lot of trouble to find these True Treasures. The sect can't not repay you. Why don't you choose three of them? They can be used as Dao Protectors."
