Enlightened Master Qian Deng furrowed his brows and revealed an awkward expression. The Enlightened Masters next to him also fell silent.
The atmosphere in the quiet room was somewhat stiff. After a moment, Masato Kihara softened his tone and looked at Enlightened Master Qian Deng with a sincere expression. "Senior Brother Qian Deng, you and I have known each other for many years. Although we aren't friends of life and death, we should at least know each other well. I'm sure you know what kind of person I am. "
Enlightened Master Qian Deng slowly nodded. Masato Kihara looked around at the crowd and continued in a low voice: "Everyone here is a discerning person, so there's no need for pleasantries. The Kunzhi branch is extremely powerful while my Tiezhi branch is in decline. Under normal circumstances, not to mention that we don't dare to get involved, even if the Kunzhi's power struggle turns the world upside down, my Tiezhi branch may not be able to do anything. "
"Including me, there are only four Yuanying Enlightened Masters in our Tiezhi branch. Apart from my disciple Su Qingjun, there are almost no outstanding talents among the disciples below the Yuanying stage." He said indifferently, "Everyone, you've dragged me into this matter for the sake of these four old bones of mine. However, this is no trivial matter. Once it starts, there is no way out. This is tantamount to me betting all of the legacies and legacies passed down by Patriarch Tieluo. I really can't afford to lose in this matter! "
Enlightened Master Qian Deng pondered for a moment and suddenly said: "Junior Brother Kihara, since you are so frank, then I won't be polite and will tell you something unpleasant."
Masato Kihara said: "Senior Brother, please go ahead."
Enlightened Master Qian Deng said: "As you said before, the Tiezhi branch has indeed declined in recent years. But if we continue to play it safe, we may be able to linger on for some time, but I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to prosper in the foreseeable future. I wonder if you have any objections to what I have said? "
Kihara Zhenren remained silent. He did not agree, nor did he agree.
Daoist Master Qian Deng didn't care about this. He only looked at him deeply and said, "Junior Brother, let me give you a word of advice. Instead of dragging on and being half-dead, why not fight with all his might? Martial Uncle Tianlan has already issued a decree earlier. As long as you, Tie Zhi, contribute to this important matter, once it succeeds, you will definitely be rewarded. Regardless of other things, the four of you, Zhenren Yuanying, will definitely be arranged to cultivate in the sky. "
Masato Kihara's expression changed slightly as he gritted his teeth.
In the Kunlun Party, there had long been a sect rule, which was that those who were not in the Yuanying realm were not allowed to go up to the four strange peaks between the clouds in the sky to train. But in reality, because the difference in strength was too great, those who could enter the four floating peaks of Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter were all disciples of Kunzhi, and the only four Spiritual Masters of Tie Zhi had never been able to go up.
Of course, this was unfair, but no one in the Kunlun Party had ever dared to openly mention this matter. The reason was actually very simple. Needless to say anything else, one only needed to look at the background of the two supreme Deity Transformation Stage Sovereigns in the sect.
…
"I understand what you're saying." Masato Kihara said to Daoist Master Qian Deng, "But this matter is of great importance, and I can't be careless. Hakushin Jinkun's lineage is powerful and has countless henchmen in the sect. It won't be easy to become enemies with them. "
He lightly pointed in a certain direction and said, "Let's not talk about other things. Even if we do well, Hakushin Jinkun is still on the Winter Peak. How can we solve this? This matter must be personally handled by Perfected Lord Tianlan, only then we have a little chance. If he doesn't appear, we, Tie Zhi, will not get involved in this muddy water. "
Qian Deng gently exhaled and said, "I understand what you mean."
Masato Kihara slightly lowered her head and said, "Senior Brother, please don't blame me for my rudeness."
Daoist Master Qian Deng waved his hand and said, "It's human nature. Don't mind it." He paused for a moment and then said, "I received the news yesterday. A few days before the next full moon, Uncle-Master Tianlan will rush back from Zhenxianmeng to participate in the annual sect council. Let's see when the time comes. Maybe he will talk to you himself. "
Masato Kihara slightly bowed and nodded. "Thank you for your understanding, Senior Brother. Thank you for Perfected Lord Tianlan's kindness."
Daoist Master Qian Deng looked at the crowd and suddenly raised his voice a little. He said, "Everyone, I've already told you about this important matter. I'm sure everyone is aware of the cause of this matter. When Ancestor Tian Hong was still alive, everyone in the sect knew that the most beloved disciple of the founder was Uncle-Master Tianlan. Even the Taoist name 'Tian' was passed on to him. The meaning couldn't be clearer. He wanted Uncle-Master Tianlan to lead the Kunlun Party and inherit the position of Sect Leader. "
"However, things took a turn for the worse. Ancestor Tian Hong passed away unexpectedly, leaving only Uncle-Master Bai Chen and Tianlan. In the end, it was Hakushin Jinkun who inherited all the legacies of the sect, while Uncle-Master Tianlan was forced to Zhenxianmeng to fight to the death with those fierce and ruthless Devil Cult monsters."
"I don't need to say more about the meaning of this."
Daoist Master Qian Deng sighed and then said, "However, many years later, Hakushin Jinkun passed the position of Sect Leader to his eldest disciple. Since then, his power has grown. Now, the discipline of the sect has been corrupted and there are many villains and spies. However, Idle Month and the others are powerless. They can't resist the strong enemies and revitalize the sect. Internally, many mediocre villains are raised to gain prestige, causing the reputation of the Kunlun Party to decline day by day. What's funny is that Idle Month and the others think that the sect is thriving and boast about it. They are shameless. "
"Uncle-Master Tianlan once said to me that although he is indifferent and doesn't care about fame and benefits, he can't sit back and watch when the sect is gradually falling into a dangerous situation. Otherwise, how can he face Ancestor Tian Hong after a hundred years? He also won't have the face to face the founders of the Kunlun Party. "
"Set things right and clean up the roots! This is what Uncle-Master Tianlan wants to do. " At the end of his speech, Qian Deng's expression was solemn, but he said it resolutely and decisively. Immediately, the expressions of the people around him tightened and they all nodded in agreement.
…
The days when Su Qingjun wasn't on the Feiyan Terrace seemed particularly cold and cheerless. However, perhaps because he was already used to this kind of loneliness, Lu Chen didn't feel sad. Instead, he felt a lot more at ease.
However, after midnight, Lu Chen led the Atsu Sect down the Nanlu Mountain Road and went straight to Kunwu City.
When he came to Kunwu City, he actually only had one place to go most of the time — to look for Old Ma in the Black Hill Pavilion. This time, when he passed by the place where the murder happened on the street, he looked a little tired.
That house was no longer available for rent. After all, someone had died in the courtyard, and there were actually a few unfamiliar men guarding the door and the house, preventing outsiders from entering or leaving at will.
Perhaps there were some bad-tempered cultivators who wanted to cause trouble, but soon, everyone saw or knew that these guards were all disciples of the Kunlun Party.
Most of the individual cultivators in Kunwu City didn't know who the person who died in the door was, so there were all kinds of guesses. Some of them even made people laugh until they scratched their heads. For example, the person who died in the house was an extremely powerful Spiritual Master Yuanying. What kind of secret technique was he hiding in the city?
Or perhaps, someone thought that a genius of the Kunlun Party that only appeared once in a hundred years lived here and was afraid that he would be discovered and died prematurely, so he hid here.
However, these words were actually considered polite. The most outrageous thing was that some people even said that there were women's clothes in this mysterious house. Perhaps they were the old lovers of the Spiritual Master Idle Month, the current Spiritual Master of the Kunlun Party.
This kind of words could be said to be malicious, but of course, it was also possible that some people were really stupid and wanted to discredit Spiritual Master Idle Month.
Of course, Lu Chen knew what happened in the house, but he naturally didn't know some specific details. One of the reasons he came to Kunwu City today was to ask Old Ma about what happened that day in detail.
But this time, the most important thing for Lu Chen in Kunwu City was still Atsu.
Although Atsu's appearance didn't seem to have changed much, Lu Chen knew that under this black dog's fur, signs of valiance and ferocity had gradually begun to show. In any case, it was no longer suitable to keep it on the mountain of Kunlun. Otherwise, in the future, Atsu might turn the mountain upside down.
As for those powerful Yuanying Spiritual Masters of the Kunlun Party, if they wanted to deal with such a black dog, they had almost endless powerful methods. Lu Chen didn't even dare to think about what would happen to Atsu if it really caused trouble in the future.
He took one last look at the house guarded by the disciples of the Heavenly Soldier Hall of the Kunlun Party, then left with Atsu, heading to the shabby and deserted Black Hill Pavilion.
Old Ma was very happy to see Lu Chen, but after hearing Lu Chen's instructions, he suddenly looked embarrassed and said, "Lu Chen, you see, now that everything here is under repair, we don't have much money left. As for me, I actually don't have much interest in raising a dog, so …"
Lu Chen said indifferently, "I'll pay."
Old Ma suddenly stood up and said righteously, "So, of course, this dog can stay. I will take care of it!"
Lu Chen smiled and didn't care. He just said, "In fact, you don't have to take care of it for too long. You just need to feed it something every day. Also, don't let it run out to the streets casually. It might cause trouble if it's not handled properly. "
"Trouble? What kind of trouble?" Old Ma looked at Lu Chen with some doubts and said, "Isn't this an ordinary dog? What kind of trouble can there be?"
Lu Chen waved his hand and said, "This matter is settled. In short, take good care of it for the next few days. When the matter is settled, live until a few days before the night of the full moon. I will find a time to send it away, the farther the better."
Old Ma frowned and suddenly looked at Lu Chen. He asked, "What do you want to do when the night of the full moon arrives?"
