Ever since the Kunlun Demon Sect was annihilated, although the demonic path was on the decline, there were still quite a number of powerful demonic overlords. These people relied on their own strength to stir up a storm in the pugilistic world, and the commotion they caused was actually not small.
Chu Xiu's strength naturally could not be compared with those Devil Dao tycoons, but this time he caused quite a stir. He almost fooled the entire Jianghu.
When Chu Xiu's identity was exposed, everyone knew that the first and second place on the Longhu List turned out to be guys from the Devil Dao.
Some radical people even asked Wind Sweeping Tower to modify the Longhu List and remove the identities of Chu Xiu and Lin Ye, but they were rejected by Wind Sweeping Tower.
Wind Sweeping Tower's Dragon and Tiger Storm Supreme List was the brand of Wind Sweeping Tower. This was related to Wind Sweeping Tower's reputation.
It was still possible for Wind's Tower to tamper with some of the less important ranking lists. However, when it came to something that the entire World of Martial Arts knew, Wind's Tower would be slapping themselves in the face if they dared to tamper with it.
Therefore, Wind Sweeping Tower only removed Lin Ye's name from the list, but did not remove Chu Xiu's name. He still ranked first on the Longhu List.
However, although Wind Sweeping Tower did not take any action, there was already a hint of a storm in Jianghu. Wind Sweeping Tower's matter was not that simple to solve.
…
In the Hedong County of Eastern Qi, in the Chunyang Palace of the Chunyang Dao Sect, several old Taoists with white hair and beards were sitting in the hall.
One of the old Taoists waved his hand, and the hot Pure Yang Gang Qi lit six incense sticks. He inserted them into the incense burner in front of the statue of Ancestor Lu in the hall.
The name of the Chunyang Dao Sect, Lu Chunyang, was well-known throughout the Jianghu. In the Taoist branch, there were only a few powerhouses who could stand shoulder to shoulder with Lu Chunyang. The furthest was the ancestor of the Celestial Master Mansion, the first Celestial Master Zhang Ling, and the closest was Ning Xuanji of the True Martial Arts Sect.
The strength of this generation of Chunyang Dao Sect was not strong, and there was a faint trend of decline. However, the foundation of Chunyang Dao Sect was still there. Although the strength of the younger generation was weak, there were still many experts in the older generation.
The old Taoist priests in the main hall were all Martial Dao masters.
The old Daoist priest turned around and said in a deep voice, "Senior Brothers, there are rumors that Lin Ye is Chu Xiu. This matter has already spread throughout the Pugilistic World. I'm sure all of you have heard about it.
Chu Xiu killed my Chunyang Dao Sect's disciples in Xiaofan Heaven. Even Senior Brother Zhen Yangzi died in his hands. He insulted my Chunyang Dao Sect. This matter must not be let go!
I would like to ask the few Senior Brothers to write a letter to the Sect Master to let me lead some of the Chunyang Dao Sect's disciples to attack the Guanzhong Torture Room! "
This old Daoist priest was the Martial Dao master of Chunyang Dao Sect, Xu Yangzi. He was Zhen Yangzi's Junior Brother and had the best relationship with Zhen Yangzi.
The martial artists from Chunyang Dao Sect were violent. Zhen Yangzi's death had already made them extremely angry. They even wanted to attack some of the Yinmo Clan's strongholds to vent their anger.
However, the Chunyang Dao Sect's Sect Master was more rational than the other disciples and Elders. He also knew that it would be a little difficult for the Chunyang Dao Sect to fight against the Yinmo Clan alone.
Even if they could get rid of some of the Yinmo Clan's strongholds, the other party would not be hurt. On the contrary, the Chunyang Dao Sect would suffer greater damage and influence. Therefore, he did not make any move against his men.
However, this time, Chu Xiu had fooled the entire Pugilistic World. If the Chunyang Dao Sect did not do anything, not only would they be laughed at by the entire Pugilistic World, how could they face Zhen Yangzi in the netherworld?
The other Elders of Chunyang Dao Sect were also excited when they heard that. However, at that moment, a middle-aged Daoist priest who was dressed a little sloppily opened the door. When he saw the people inside, he chuckled and said, "Martial nephews, are you having a meeting?"
Xu Yangzi frowned and said, "Xi Yunzi, what are you doing here?"
The old Daoists present all showed awkward expressions. This guy was the most unpopular guy in the entire Chunyang Dao Sect.
Xi Yunzi's seniority in the Chunyang Dao Sect was extremely high. He was even one generation higher than them. He could talk to the Chunyang Dao Sect's Sect Master and the few experts from the previous generation of Chunyang Dao Sect who were near the end of their lifespans.
The reason was that the previous Sect Master took Xi Yunzi as his last disciple before he died. In fact, Xi Yunzi did not even listen to a word of the previous Sect Master's teachings.
Previously, everyone thought that Xi Yunzi must have some amazing talent or ability. In the end, he only stepped into the Oneness of Heaven and Man at the age of 40. Although it was quite good, compared to the last disciple of Chunyang Dao Sect, there was a huge gap between him and what they had imagined.
It was fine that Xi Yunzi was weak, but Xi Yunzi always talked about seniority. He would call them martial nephews whenever he saw them. Although they were angry, there was nothing they could do.
Xi Yunzi smiled and said, "Senior Brother Sect Master said that once this matter is spread, you will definitely go to cause trouble for Chu Xiu. So, he asked me to inform you. You can go now. There's no need to disturb his closed-door cultivation."
Xu Yangzi immediately laughed and said, "Sect Master really knows my temper. Go and tell the Sect Master that I will definitely get Chu Xiu's head this time. I will bring it back to the sect and offer it to Senior Brother Zhen Yangzi!"
Xi Yun shrugged and said, "I will pass on your words. However, the sect master also wanted me to pass on a message to you. This time, you cannot mobilize too many people. Only the disciples of your line can go. Also, this time, no matter how weak Chu Xiu's side is, Chunyang Dao Sect can't make the first move. After so many years, Chunyang Dao Sect has been the first bird to stand out. This time, we can't rush forward stupidly. "
It was unknown whether Xu Yangzi heard him or not. He waved his hand and said, "Okay, go and tell the Sect Master that I understand."
Xi Yunzi shook his head. Looking at Xu Yangzi's expression, he knew that he most likely didn't hear him.
"Martial Nephew Xu Yangzi, don't ignore the Sect Master's words. I see that your forehead is dark. I'm afraid this trip is going to be a bad omen."
Xu Yangzi snorted and said, "With your cultivation, you are going to study the Dao of Divination. What can you divine? Don't say such inauspicious things. "
With that, Xu Yangzi turned and left. Behind him, Xi Yunzi shook his head helplessly and sighed.
The Sect Master had thought through many things during this period of seclusion, but there were many people in Chunyang Dao Sect who didn't understand.
At this time, Chunyang Dao Sect wasn't the only one making a move. The Great Light Temple was doing the same.
Previously on Mount Ba, Xu Xing had been seriously injured by Chu Xiu's Seven Demon Blade. Since then, he had been recuperating in seclusion.
This time, when he heard the news about Chu Xiu, Xu Xing was so angry that he wanted to immediately lead the monk disciples of Dharma Hall to the Guanzhong Torture Room to seek revenge on Chu Xiu.
Beside Xu Xing, the Master of Vajra Hall, Xu Yan, and the Master of Arhat Hall, Xu Hong, stopped Xu Xing and tried to persuade him. "It's fine if you go alone, but if you want to bring the entire Vajra Hall with you, you have to first talk to the Abbot or Senior Brother Xu Yun and get their permission, right? You are now a Master of a hall. If you continue to be so willful and mischievous, the Abbot might strip you of your Master's position in a fit of anger. "
Xu Xing said angrily, "The Abbot is in seclusion, and Senior Brother Xu Yun is only thinking about the big picture. What if he doesn't allow me to act? I'll act first and report later. I'll just bring people with me and act first! "
Xu Yan and Xu Hong shook their heads helplessly. Ever since Xu Xing had been seriously injured by Chu Xiu's Seven Demon Blade on Mount Ba, the anger in his heart seemed to have grown stronger. He was irritable, easily angered, and extremely stubborn.
However, Xu Yan and Xu Hong could only try their best to hold him back. The Great Light Temple's rules were not child's play. If Xu Xing really acted recklessly, the Great Light Temple would really strip him of his Master of Vajra Hall status.
Xu Xing was not the only martial arts grandmaster in the Vajra Hall. The others might not have enough strength and experience, but it was not a problem for them to temporarily replace him.
At this moment, a voice came from outside the door. "I say, the two of you are meddling too much. If you have a grudge, take revenge. If you have a grudge, take revenge. It's very normal. Don't be a coward, just do it. Junior Brother Xu Xing, I support you! "
The two of them looked up and saw the Kongzhi Zen Hall's Master, Xu Du, who was dressed in a sloppy monk robe and sipping from a wine gourd. He looked like he was watching a good show.
Xu Yan said angrily, "Senior Brother Xu Du! Can you not add fuel to the fire here? And why are you secretly drinking again? No, you actually dare to drink openly in front of us. I'm going to report this to Senior Brother Xu Yun! "
Xu Du waved the wine gourd in his hand and said, "Junior Brother Xu Yan, you've gone overboard again. Who said that the wine gourd must contain wine? It's just sugar water. There's not a single thing in the first place, so how can there be dust? You have wine in your heart, so when you see the wine gourd, you think it's wine. I have no wine in my heart. Even if I drink wine, it's just cold water. "
Xu Yan and Xu Hong looked helpless. They could not be bothered to argue with Xu Du, so they pulled Xu Xing back.
However, at this moment, a young monk came in and reported, "Masters, the Chief of the Memorial Villa, Nie Renlong, is here to see you."
The few of them looked at each other. Even Xu Xing stopped struggling, and a look of confusion appeared in his eyes. What was Nie Renlong doing at the Great Light Temple?
In the past, people from other sects had come to the Great Light Temple, but most of them were from sects that were related to the Buddhist sects.
Although the Memorial Villa was also in the Northern Yan, it did not have much interaction with the Great Light Temple. Nie Renlong had never been there before.
Xu Du leaned against the door frame and said lazily, "Since he's here to see you, let him in first. Otherwise, people will say that the Great Light Temple is lacking in etiquette."
The little monk nodded his head and immediately brought Nie Renlong inside.
In less than a year, Nie Renlong seemed to have aged more than a decade. His hair was completely white, and his body exuded a cold aura.
After seeing Xu Du and the others, Nie Renlong did not say anything. He knelt on the ground under everyone's shocked gazes and said in a low voice, "The demon scoundrel Chu Xiu has wreaked havoc in the Martial World and is lawless. I implore the Great Light Temple to uphold justice and join forces with the righteous Martial World to kill the demon and restore order to the world!"
