The Great Light Temple had existed for tens of thousands of years and had existed even before the great calamity of ancient times. Thus, there were several generations of disciples in the Great Light Temple.
However, because of this, there would be cases of two or three hundred-year-old monks accepting a young disciple. This disciple's seniority was naturally very high.
Xu Yan was in such a situation. Among the warriors of the Xu generation, he was considered relatively young.
Huizhen walked into the courtyard and clasped his hands together. "Junior Martial Uncle."
In the past, when Xu Yan was young, Huizhen was already a martial monk instructor. However, because of seniority, he could only call Xu Yan Martial Uncle. He felt that it was a little awkward, so he added the word "junior." This habit had not been changed until now.
Seeing Huizhen, Xu Yan sighed. "I know about Mingchen's matter. Huizhen, my condolences."
Grief appeared in Huizhen's eyes as he nodded. However, before he could say anything, Xu Yan said, "Huizhen, do you want me to go to the Guanzhong torture room to ask for Mingchen? However, I advise you to give up. I will not make a move, and the temple will not allow you to make a move. The grudges between Mingchen and Chu Xiu have ended with Mingchen's death. This matter is over. "
"Why!?"
Hui Zhen had a look of surprise on his face. He had never thought that Xu Yan would actually say that.
The warriors of the Vajra Institution had always had a fiery temper. In Huizhen's opinion, even if he did not take the initiative to mention this matter, Xu Yan would personally go to the Guanzhong torture room to ask for an explanation from Guan Siyu. In the end, Xu Yan did not intend to make a move and even wanted to stop him.
Xu Yan sighed and said, "It's news from the Guanzhong Disciplinary Hall.
Senior Martial Brother Xu Yun, the First Seat of the Wangnian Zen Hall, owed the previous hall master Chu Kuangge a favor.
He did not return this favor when Chu Kuangge was alive. Now that the Guanzhong torture room wants him to return this favor, Senior Martial Brother Xu Yun has already agreed.
You know the weight of Senior Martial Brother Xu Yun's words. Since he has spoken, I cannot refuse, and neither can you. "
Hui Zhen let out a sigh. His body, which was already old and clumsy, now appeared even more hunched.
The First Seat of the Raging Thought Zen Hall, 'Dragon Tree of Nine Wonders' Xu Yun, was the strongest existence amongst the First Seats of the Three Great Zen Halls and the Six Great Martial Schools of the Great Radiance Monastery. He was acknowledged to be a powerful being who was second only to the Abbot, Reverend Shakya, Xu Ci.
Moreover, Xu Yun had an extremely high status in the Xu generation. He used to be their eldest senior brother. As for why Xu Ci had become the abbot in the end, it had always been a mystery to the outside world. This was because among the warriors of the Xu generation, whether it was in the martial arts world or in the Temple of Great Light, Xu Yun was the most famous. In the end, Xu Ci had become the abbot.
However, the relationship between the two parties did not change because of this. In the past, when Xu Ci had just taken over the Temple of Great Light, Xu Yun had given his all to help Xu Ci stabilize the hearts of the people in the Temple of Great Light. It could be said that Xu Ci was able to secure his position now without Xu Yun's help.
In the Light Temple, Xu Yun's words were no different from those of the abbot. Since Xu Yun said that he was prepared to return this favor, Xu Yan could not refute and Huizhen could not refuse.
Looking at Huizhen's hunched back, Xu Yan shook his head helplessly.
He had to give Xu Yun face, but this was also because Ming Chen's position and strength were not enough. Therefore, the Light Temple could not take revenge for him.
If the person who died was the most outstanding disciple of their Great Light Temple's younger generation, Wisdom King Zong Xuan, then not only would Xu Yun lose face, even if Abbot Xu Ci did not want to take revenge, the entire Great Light Temple would still want to kill Chu Xiu to take revenge.
The grudge with the Great Light Temple was temporarily put aside. Chu Xiu was currently recuperating in seclusion in the Guanxi Land. Chu Xiu had also made use of the ferocious beast's heart he had obtained from the Skyreach Tower.
In fact, the best way to make use of the beast's heart was to bleed and refine it into a pill. Only then could the pill's effect be maximized.
However, it was a pity that Chu Xiu did not have any alchemists under him, and he was a little worried about the alchemists in the Guanzhong Disciplinary Hall. Hence, he could only waste some and directly extract their blood to refine.
As soon as the blood from the beast's heart entered his body, it was split into half by the Glazed Gold Silk Gu in Chu Xiu's body. The other half was like a burning flame that instantly ignited Chu Xiu's body.
The ancient beast's power was unimaginable to the current warriors. At least, the intensity of this power was unique among all the pills that Chu Xiu had taken.
While he was refining the ferocious beast's blood, Chu Xiu had also borrowed this energy to temper his Great King Kong Divine Energy, causing the strength of his body to rise to a whole new level.
After a few days, the Ghost Hand King suddenly knocked on the door of Chu Xiu's seclusion chamber. He said that Cheng Zhouhai was looking for him and that it was urgent.
Chu Xiu raised his eyebrows. The four regions of Guanzhong had their own way of doing things. Usually, they did not interfere with each other. If there was no incident that involved the entire Guanzhong Torture Room, they would rarely work together. Why was Cheng Zhouhai looking for him now?
However, Chu Xiu was not in a life-or-death seclusion this time. His injuries were almost healed, and it was not a big deal to be interrupted. Therefore, Chu Xiu asked the Ghost Hand King to bring Cheng Zhouhai to the meeting hall.
When Chu Xiu walked into the meeting hall, Cheng Zhouhai cupped his hands at Chu Xiu and said, "Congratulations to Official Chu for being promoted to the position of torture officer. I knew that Official Chu was not an ordinary person. Now, it seems that my judgment was very accurate."
In the past, Cheng Zhouhai had a humorous personality and liked to joke around. However, his attitude towards Chu Xiu now was respectful and respectful. After all, his status was different. Now that Chu Xiu was a torture officer, he was on the same level as his master, Xiao Yi, his attitude naturally could not be the same as before.
Thinking of this, Cheng Zhouhai sighed.
In the past, he and Chu Xiu were both outstanding warriors of the younger generation in Guanzhong Torture Room. They were all on the same level, but Chu Xiu's advantage was more obvious.
As a result, after a short time, Chu Xiu had already stood at the same level as his master. This also made Cheng Zhouhai sigh in his heart. This was luck. Even if some people were stronger than Chu Xiu, they did not have the same status as Chu Xiu.
"Brother Cheng, there is no need for these polite words between us. What is the matter this time?" Chu Xiu asked someone to bring a cup of tea to Cheng Zhouhai and asked.
Cheng Zhouhai looked solemn and said, "My master asked me to bring you a message. Xiahou Zhen, the head of the Xiahou family, came from Eastern Qi and has already stepped into the Guandong area. Looking at his appearance, it is obvious that he is coming straight for you, so you have to be careful."
Chu Xiu was stunned and said in surprise, "Xiahou Zhen came alone?"
Cheng Zhouhai nodded and said, "Only Xiahou Zhen came alone."
Chu Xiu touched his chin and showed a trace of doubt in his eyes. The Xiahou family did not play by the rules.
The Great Guangming Temple had been settled, and Chu Xiu also guessed the Xiahou family's reaction.
Either it was left unsettled, like the last time. Anyway, the person who died was not Xiahou Wujiang.
Or it was to mobilize the power of the entire Xiahou family to suppress the Guanzhong Torture Room, such as finding some trouble for the Guanzhong Torture Room and forcing the Guanzhong Torture Room to punish Chu Xiu.
Now, as the head of the family, Xiahou Zhen personally took action. Did this mean that he valued Chu Xiu? However, for Xiahou Zhen himself, there was some suspicion of bullying the young, which was not good to say.
"Does the Hall Master know about this?" Chu Xiu asked.
Cheng Zhouhai nodded and said, "The head of the Xiahou family came in person. As soon as he stepped into the Guandong area, Master had already sent someone to inform the Hall Master."
Chu Xiu smiled and said, "Since the Hall Master knows, I don't have to worry about anything. With the protection of the Hall Master, Xiahou Zhen can't stir up any trouble. On the ranking list, the Hall Master is above Xiahou Zhen. "
Cheng Zhouhai was a little speechless when he heard this. It seemed that this person regarded the Hall Master as his own fighter? There was something the Hall Master had to do.
However, if Cheng Zhouhai was the Hall Master, he would also choose to protect Chu Xiu.
After all, Chu Xiu was now the face of the Guanzhong torture room and the most outstanding disciple of the younger generation. If someone wanted to kill Chu Xiu, and the Guanzhong torture room sat back and did nothing, how could the people of the Guanzhong torture room stand by and do nothing?
Just like the Xiahou family, because the person who died this time was the Seventh Uncle, the group of elders dared to stop Xiahou Zhen from taking revenge. But if the person who died this time was Xiahou Wujiang, it would be a little too much for the group of elders to stop him.
At this time, in front of the gate of Jiuhua City where the Guanxi branch was located, Xiahou Zhen looked at the merchants and warriors coming and going in silence.
At this time, Xiahou Zhen did not reveal the aura of a Martial Dao Grandmaster, but in the eyes of others, this middle-aged man wearing a luxurious brocade robe with an extraordinary aura was not someone to be trifled with. So even if Xiahou Zhen blocked the way, no one dared to scold or complain.
As the head of the Xiahou family, Xiahou Zhen had not stepped out of the Xiahou family for several years.
Everyone thought that being the head of the Xiahou family was a very honorable position, but in fact, only those who sat in this position knew how difficult it was.
Just like what he was doing right now. He clearly wanted to take revenge for his own people, but as the Patriarch, he was unable to use even the slightest bit of his strength, and he even had to personally take action. Was there anything more ironic than this?
This time, Xiahou Zhen came alone. He couldn't use the power of the Xiahou clan because the elders prevented him from using it. However, he still had some trusted subordinates by his side, such as the seventh uncle. However, Xiahou Zhen didn't bring any of them because he knew that he probably wouldn't be able to kill Chu Xiu this time.
After all, Chu Xiu was an elite of the younger generation of the Guanzhong torture room and the face of the Guanzhong torture room. This was Guanzhong, and he came to the Guanzhong torture room to kill people. Would the Guanzhong torture room ignore him?
Perhaps from the moment he stepped into Guanzhong, his whereabouts had already been reported.
However, none of this mattered. Xiahou Zhen had to come this time to give himself an explanation, as well as an explanation to his trusted subordinates.
