Just before Chu Xiu went to find Shang Tianliang, the undercurrent in Jianghu had already begun to surge.
The Vast Sun Peak in Hedong Prefecture of Eastern Qi was where the mountain gate of the Chunyang Dao Sect was located. It was exceptionally magnificent.
For thousands of years, the so-called Vast Sun Peak was actually just an ordinary hill.
Until the ancestors of the Chunyang Dao Sect established the Chunyang Dao Sect in this place. Step by step, they reinforced the mountain peak, carved a formation, and built a large number of Taoist temples, pavilions, and other buildings in it. The entire Vast Sun Peak appeared to be dazzling with golden light. It was extremely eye-catching even if it was more than ten miles away. It was equivalent to the landmark of the entire Hedong Prefecture.
At this time, the atmosphere in the Chunyang Dao Sect was depressing. Chang Yunzi's corpse was placed in the entire hall. His chest was even pierced by Chu Xiu with the Sky Seeking Tyrant Spear.
The corpse was sent by the people of the Real Martial Arts Sect. The people of the Real Martial Arts Sect could imagine how excited the people of the Chunyang Dao Sect would be when they saw the corpse. Therefore, he directly turned around and left after throwing the corpse.
"Chu Xiu! The Chunyang Dao Sect and you are absolutely irreconcilable! "
A white-haired old Taoist roared in a low voice as if he wanted to skin Chu Xiu alive.
The old Taoist's words seemed to have opened a floodgate. In the hall, the group of old Taoists and middle-aged Taoists of the Chunyang Dao Sect began to scold Chu Xiu. They looked like they wanted to hack Chu Xiu into pieces.
At this time, standing in front of Chang Yunzi's corpse was an old Taoist with messy hair and a gray Taoist robe.
He was the current leader of the Chunyang Dao Sect, Immortal Shou Yang, Ling Yunzi.
The Sect Leader of the Chunyang Dao Sect could be said to be extremely low-key. He was the most low-key one among the Three Great Dao Sects.
However, it was said that Ling Yunzi was extremely sharp when he was young. He was the number one on the Longhu Leaderboard of his generation. He had a fiery temper and abhorred evil. Under the Pure Yang Sword, all evil spirits would retreat. He had even annihilated a major demonic sect by himself. He had set up the Nine Heavens Pure Yang Formation with his sword, causing the entire demonic sect to be annihilated. From then on, Ling Yunzi became famous in the Pugilistic World. It was also because of this battle that Ling Yunzi inherited the position of the leader of the Chunyang Dao Sect.
However, for some unknown reason, ever since Ling Yunzi took over the position of Chunyang Dao Sect's sect master, he became more and more low-key. Even in the entire Chunyang Dao Sect, very few disciples could see him.
As a result, this person, who was once ranked in the top five on the leaderboard when he was at his peak, had not appeared on any leaderboard for decades.
At this moment, looking at Zhang Yunzi's corpse, who had died with his eyes open, Ling Yunzi gently stroked his face with his hand, closed his eyes, and let out a long sigh. This sigh immediately made everyone in the hall quiet down and turn their eyes to Ling Yunzi.
"Do you all think that the Chunyang Dao Sect should take revenge?"
The Taoist priests present nodded in unison. Someone even said loudly, "Sect Leader, Senior Brother Zhang Yunzi was killed by Chu Xiu in front of everyone. If the Chunyang Dao Sect doesn't take revenge for such a huge grudge, how can the Chunyang Dao Sect have the face to stand in the Pugilistic World?"
Ling Yunzi suddenly raised his head and said, "Does the Chunyang Dao Sect only rely on face to stand in the Pugilistic World?"
The old Taoist priest who spoke suddenly paused, but then he snorted coldly and said, "Face is for others to see, but the Chunyang Dao Sect can't just let it go!
With Senior Brother Zhang Yunzi's strength, even if he can't defeat Chu Xiu, he can still escape. But why didn't he escape?
Because he is the leader of the Six Temple Guardian Spiritual Masters. If he escapes, the entire Chunyang Dao Sect will lose face!
Moreover, if a murderer like Chu Xiu appears in the Pugilistic World again, it will be a catastrophe for the entire Pugilistic World! Senior Brother Zhang Yunzi wants to use his life to drag the devil down with him!
But now, Senior Brother Zhang Yunzi is dead, but the devil is still alive. If the Chunyang Dao Sect swallows this insult, I'm afraid I won't even dare to die because I have no face to see Senior Brother Zhang Yunzi! "
The old Taoist priest's words were the thoughts of almost all the Taoists present. As soon as he said this, the others also agreed.
Apart from Ling Yunzi, the only person who could still remain calm was the Junior Uncle of the Chunyang Dao Sect, Xi Yunzi.
Ling Yunzi waved his hand and said with slight exhaustion, "If that's the case, then do it. However, the Chunyang Dao Sect can't be the only one to do it.
Chu Xiu is not alone. The Zhenwu Hall, the Blue Dragon Society, the Guanzhong Torture Room, and the entire Yinmo Clan are standing behind him.
If we want to kill the devil, we can't be unprepared. Later, I will ask Xi Yunzi to go to Subodhi Zen Temple. I believe it won't be peaceful there.
Alright, all of you can leave first and prepare for Senior Brother Zhang Yunzi's burial. Junior Brother Xi Yunzi, you stay. "
If it was during normal times, the people of the Dao Sects would definitely not ask the Buddhist Sects for help. They would definitely oppose Ling Yunzi's approach.
However, the people of the Chunyang Dao Sect were just a little paranoid, but they were not idiots. It was indeed a little difficult for them to deal with Chu Xiu alone.
Therefore, at this time, they could only temporarily put aside their sectarian views and join forces with the monks of Nanman to annihilate Chu Xiu together.
After everyone left, Ling Yunzi let out a long sigh and said in a low voice, "Junior Brother, do you think I'm very useless?
Master named me Ling Yunzi because he hoped that I would have the ambition to reach the clouds in the future and soar to the sky.
Later, he gave me the Taoist name Shou Yang because he wanted me to guard the Chunyang Dao Sect well.
In the end, when it came to me, the Chunyang Dao Sect was at its weakest in the past thousands of years. "
In the past, the Chunyang Dao Sect was the leader of the Dao Sects when it was at its peak. At that time, the Real Martial Arts Sect was just a weak branch of the Dao Sects. There were only a dozen little Taoists with the surname Zhang in the Longhu Mountain Celestial Master Mansion. They were preaching in the wilderness of West Chu.
Now, because of Ning Xuanji, the Real Martial Arts Sect became the leader of the Dao Sects. Even if Ning Xuanji had disappeared for five hundred years, there were still people who remembered the identity of the Real Martial Arts Sect. At least, with Ning Xuanji's halo, it would not be a problem for the Real Martial Arts Sect to survive for another five hundred years.
As for the Celestial Master Mansion, with the old Celestial Master in charge, the rest of the middle-aged and young people, and the latest generation of powerhouses, it had long become the number one Dao Sects. He had been guarding the Chunyang Dao Sect for his whole life, but he had left the Chunyang Dao Sect in such a state. This made Ling Yunzi feel ashamed to face his ancestors.
At that moment, Xi Yunzi did not have his usual cheeky look. He just closed his eyes and sighed, "Senior Brother, you've done well enough. If you hadn't suppressed the old guys in the sect all these years and balanced the forces, who knows what the Chunyang Dao Sect would be like now. I haven't had much contact with my cheap master, but he has a good eye for people. Since he handed the position of the sect master to you, it proves that you're qualified to take the position. "
Ling Yunzi closed his eyes slightly and said, "The monks in the Buddhist Sects always talk about karma and karma. I don't believe it. How can there be so much karma in this world?
But now I believe it. The Chunyang Dao Sect has been in the limelight for too long. Maybe even the heavens can't stand it anymore.
Face? Haha, they still don't understand. To stand at the peak of the martial world, you either have to be strong enough or shameless enough.
If you want face without strength, that's just embarrassing. "
If those who knew Ling Yunzi well in the past saw him like this, they would definitely be shocked.
The Taoist Sect's true master who hated evil and had a fiery temper in the past had now turned into this dejected look.
Xi Yunzi stood up and said, "Senior Brother, don't think too much. At least they've grown a little. If it was before, they might still say something like 'take revenge on your own' and there's no need to find outsiders to join forces with. ' "I'll run around the Subodhi Monastery. Other people want face, but my face is worthless. Not to mention the Subodhi Monastery, I'll even run to the Great Light Monastery."
Ling Yunzi suddenly opened his eyes and said, "In the Chunyang Dao Sect, you're the only one who has come into contact with Chu Xiu. Do you think that if we make a move, will we be able to completely get rid of Chu Xiu?"
Xi Yunzi stood up and said, "Who knows? If we can calculate such things, there won't be so much trouble.
Senior Brother, we have no choice. If we don't make a move, the entire Chunyang Dao Sect will be in chaos.
"The habits and tempers that have been accumulated over several generations, my cheap master can't control them. You can't control them even after a few decades, and the next generation will probably be the same.
"Everyone says that the law is natural, but how is that natural? "Whether they die or live, we'll leave it to fate. We'll just have to make do with our lives. How can the huge Chunyang Dao Sect collapse?"
After saying that, Xi Yunzi turned and walked out of the Pure Yang Palace, leaving Ling Yunzi behind with a deep sigh. The lethargy on his body became even thicker.
Over ten days later, in the Subodhi Monastery, Xi Yunzi was dressed in a luxurious embroidered Taiji Daoist robe. His hair was combed into a neat bun, and Ancestor Lu's Divine Weapon, Pure Yang, was hanging on his waist. He had a solemn expression on his face.
His appearance was completely different from the sloppy appearance he had in the Chunyang Dao Sect. When he was outside, he had to pay attention to his image.
"Abbot Rama, this is what the Chunyang Dao Sect means now. Chu Xiu has a special identity. Touching him is equivalent to touching the entire demonic path.
"In the past, the eminent monk of your temple, Jingchan Zhizang, failed to kill Chu Xiu and resurrect Chu Xiu. Now, it has caused even more trouble.
Chu Xiu's strength has increased greatly. My Senior Brother, Yunzi, died in his hands.
Now, Chu Xiu even controls one of the four spirits, the Blue Dragon Society. If a sharp sword stained with blood is held in the hands of a demon whose hands are stained with even more blood, the consequences are self-evident.
In the past ten years, the battle between the righteous and demonic paths on Floating Jade Mountain was considered a small skirmish. Both sides were probing each other.
Although the battle between the righteous and demonic paths in the Moon Worshipping Sect didn't seem to have a clear winner, it led to the rise of the Moon Worshipping Sect.
So, in fact, the righteous path has already lost.
Now that Chu Xiu has risen, it also represents the rise of the Yinmo Clan behind him. This does not only concern our two clans, but also the righteous path of the entire martial arts world! "
Xi Yunzi said with a solemn expression, "So, today, I represent the Chunyang Dao Sect to join forces with the Subodhi Monastery and gather the power of both Daoism and Buddhism in the world. Let go of our prejudices and start the third great war between the righteous path and the demonic path to kill Chu Xiu!"
