The people from the Great Guangming Temple and the Chunyang Dao Sect had all arrived. Naturally, the people from Jiangshan Pavilion were here as well.
However, there were only a few people from Jiangshan Pavilion. They were here to talk to Xiang Long. After all, Jiangshan Pavilion was going to take over Wei County. Moreover, it was related to Jiangshan Pavilion's plan to restore their country. They had to pay attention to it no matter what.
On the horses, three people stood side by side. They were all dressed in luxurious clothes and had an extraordinary aura.
Looking at the people from the Chunyang Dao Sect and the Buddhist Sect, a handsome warrior in his thirties said, "Big Brother, this time, the Northern Yan Emperor wants to help Jiangshan Pavilion restore our country. It seems that he has made a big move. Even the Chunyang Dao Sect and the Great Guangming Temple have been encouraged by him. I wonder what he wants to do."
The man whom he called Big Brother looked to be in his fifties. However, the vicissitudes between his brows could not be concealed. He was like an old man who had seen through the world.
This man was the current Pavilion Master of Jiangshan Pavilion, Zhao Yuanfeng.
The Zhao family of Jiangshan Pavilion used to be the royal family. Even the core of the entire Jiangshan Pavilion was based on the Zhao family. There were also the descendants of the loyal officials of the Zhao family in the past.
Zhao Yuanfeng said in a deep voice, "Yuanyi, don't worry about the internal affairs of the Northern Yan. You only need to remember one thing. Since the establishment of Jiangshan Pavilion, we have been trying to take back the country that belongs to the Zhao family. The affairs of the Northern Yan Imperial Court and the Northern Yan Jianghu have nothing to do with Jiangshan Pavilion. Now, Jiangshan Pavilion is only here to restore our country. "
At this time, an old voice behind Zhao Yuanfeng suddenly said, "Yuanfeng, it's not that I want to criticize you, but you are wrong.
Since Jiangshan Pavilion wants to restore our country, then the current Three Kingdoms will be changed to Four Kingdoms.
Whether it is Eastern Qi, Western Chu, or Northern Yan, they are all future enemies of our Jiangshan Pavilion. How can we not pay attention to them? "
Zhao Yuanfeng frowned slightly and said faintly, "Understood, Granduncle."
Zhao Yuanfeng was a little impatient with the old man behind him, while his younger brother, Zhao Yuanyi, was disgusted.
He was a member of the Jiangshan Pavilion Elders Guild.
The so-called Elders Council, in Zhao Yuanyi's eyes, was just a place where a bunch of old farts gathered together. They had no ability, but they liked to point fingers at others.
Although Jiangshan Pavilion was a descendant of the royal family, it no longer looked like a descendant of the royal family. Instead, it looked more like a combination of a sect and a family in the Jianghu.
According to the Imperial Family's way of doing things, who cared if you were an Elder or not? Since you were not the Emperor, you should just obediently be a hired thug. Interfering with the Imperial Family's authority was a great taboo.
According to the Jianghu's way of doing things, there were many masters with different surnames in Jiangshan Pavilion. They were all descendants of those loyal officials in the past, so they should be promoted to high positions.
However, it was precisely because these old guys said that Jiangshan Pavilion could only be controlled by themselves. How could they hand it over to a servant? Therefore, a large number of masters of Jiangshan Pavilion were bitterly disappointed. They fled overseas or to the Central Plains, parting ways with Jiangshan Pavilion.
Fortunately, his elder brother, Zhao Yuanfeng, was outstanding and talented. He had stepped into the True Fire Spirit Refinement Realm and could be considered to have the qualifications to challenge the Elders Guild. That was why he stood his ground against the objections of the masses and had been developing his overseas forces for the past ten years. He had occupied many islands and recruited subordinates wantonly, allowing the strength of the Rivers and Mountains Pavilion to rise to another level.
However, in Zhao Yuanyi's eyes, his eldest brother was definitely comparable to those in the top ten on the list. If it wasn't for these old guys holding them back, the development of Jiangshan Pavilion wouldn't just be one level higher. They would probably be able to reach the peak.
Zhao Yuanyi wanted to say something, but Zhao Yuanfeng waved his hand and said, "Alright, that's enough. Let's go into the city."
Hearing his eldest brother say that, Zhao Yuanyi followed him into the city, feeling a little depressed.
At the city gate, Chu Xiu stood there, waiting for the people from the Great Light Temple and the Chunyang Dao Sect to enter the city.
Looking at Chu Xiu, who was dressed in black, standing with his hands behind his back, the soldiers guarding the city all shrunk to the side carefully. Xu Yan and Xi Yunzi frowned at almost the same time.
They knew the benefits of entering the Northern Yan Sect to preach, but they also knew the consequences.
Yan Jing City, the core region of the Northern Yan Sect, had always been Chu Xiu's territory. As long as they entered Yan Jing City and started interfering with the Jianghu affairs of the entire Northern Yan Sect, not only would they have to compete with them, but they would also offend Chu Xiu. Xiang Long was getting someone else to do his dirty work.
They understood that, but they still came. It wasn't that they looked down on Chu Xiu, but the conditions and temptation that Xiang Long offered were too great, so great that they couldn't refuse.
"Master Xu Yan, long time no see. Taoist Xi Yunzi, I didn't expect you to come this time. Has the Chunyang Dao Sect declined to such an extent?"
Chu Xiu greeted the two of them with a bright smile on his face. That smile was extremely bright. Chu Xiu stood there like a harmless young master, but Xu Yan and Xi Yunzi knew that under that seemingly harmless smile of Chu Xiu's, there was actually a lot of blood and slaughter hidden within.
Xi Yunzi let out a long sigh and said in a deep voice, "I'm just an ordinary disciple of the Chunyang Dao Sect. I've never thought of myself as special. Since the sect asked me to do so, of course I had to do it. What's so strange about that?"
The disciples of the Chunyang Dao Sect who came with Xi Yunzi all looked at him with surprise.
In the Chunyang Dao Sect, this little Uncle-Master was not well-liked. Most of the disciples of the Chunyang Dao Sect thought that he was pompous and did not act like a Daoist Master at all.
However, when it came to business, Xi Yunzi behaved himself. At least, he would not embarrass the Chunyang Dao Sect.
Xu Yan shook his head and said, "Official Chu, you should know why we're here in Yan Jing City. We also know why you're here. Official Chu, you're a smart man. You should know that the main reason for this isn't us. The Great Light Temple has no intention of becoming enemies with you at this time. However, we can't help ourselves in the Jianghu. I hope you can understand. "
Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "We can't help ourselves in the Jianghu. Well said. Master Xu Yan can see it very clearly."
Chu Xiu's expression turned grave as soon as he said that. "However, I, Chu Xiu, am also a person in the Jianghu. Can I help myself in the things I do? "The Zhenwu Clan has been operating in the Northern Yan Jianghu for many years. The order has been completely established. Now that the two of you have come, you want to destroy this order. I can tolerate it, but the entire Zhenwu Clan can't!"
Xu Yan put his palms together and chanted the name of Buddha. "Official Chu, I can only guarantee that the Great Light Temple won't start a war easily."
Xi Yunzi, who was at the side, also said, "Senior Brother Sect Leader has already said that the karma between the two sides will be put aside for the time being. "This time, the Chunyang Dao Sect didn't come specifically to become enemies with you, Official Chu."
Mako Mori was sizing up Chu Xiu at the moment.
Back when he was in closed-door cultivation, there was no such person as Chu Xiu in the Jianghu. Not to mention Chu Xiu, even Chenqing Di had not shown any signs at that time.
In the end, the world had changed in just a few decades. Now, such a junior martial artist actually had the ability to stir up the world?
Just as the atmosphere between the two sides was very tense, the people from Jiangshan Pavilion walked over.
Actually, Zhao Yuanfeng did not want to have any dealings with Chu Xiu.
Of course, Zhao Yuanfeng knew about the Zhenwu Clan's Viceroy, who had recently become famous in the Jianghu. In fact, he knew him in detail.
After all, there were not many people in the entire Jianghu who did not know Chu Xiu. Jiangshan Pavilion only focused on the overseas region. It was not that they did not pay attention to the Central Plains Warriors' movements.
However, this time, although Jiangshan Pavilion had joined the overall situation, Jiangshan Pavilion's target was only Wei County. As long as they could manage Wei County well, they did not care about what the Northern Yan would be like.
Therefore, when he saw Chu Xiu and the others secretly quarreling at the city gate, he wanted to keep a low profile and go around the small door at the side.
However, the Zhao Clan's elder frowned and rushed to say, "Everyone, don't block the gate if you don't want to go in."
As soon as he said this, Zhao Yuanfeng secretly cursed. As expected, the gazes of the three parties turned to the direction of Jiangshan Pavilion at the same time.
"People from Jiangshan Pavilion?" Chu Xiu said faintly.
The Zhao Clan's elder said proudly, "Yes. To be precise, we are the Zhao Clan's royal family. After I meet your Majesty, it will not take long for us to restore our country. If you want to resolve the grievances between you and the Taoists and Buddhists, go somewhere else. Don't block the way here! "
When this elder of the Zhao Family was born, the Zhao Family had not yet been destroyed. Therefore, he was still contaminated with some of the habits of the royal family. He was not like Zhao Yuanfeng and the others, who were almost no different from the people of the Jianghu. They did things purely with the eyes of the people of the Jianghu.
Previously, Zhao Yuanfeng had told the Zhao Clan's elder not to offend Xiang Long. Of course, the elder knew this. Even if Zhao Yuanfeng didn't say it, he would still pay attention. The royal family's etiquette could not be forgotten.
However, Zhao Yuanfeng forgot to tell him not only not to offend Xiang Long, but also not to offend important officials like Chu Xiu who had great influence in Northern Yan.
In the past, when the Zhao Clan was still a royal family, it could be said that their words carried enormous weight. In reality, small countries like the Zhao Clan's royal family could not have too much influence in the country.
Therefore, in the eyes of the Zhao Clan's elder, this Chu Xiu was only a Northern Yan official, while his Jiangshan Pavilion's Zhao Clan was of royal origin. They were qualified to be on equal footing with the Xiang Clan's royal family. Of course, not in terms of strength, at least in terms of status.
Facing a Northern Yan official, the Zhao Clan's elder thought that his attitude was polite enough. In fact, he was even giving face to Xiang Long.
Chu Xiu looked at the people of the River Mountain Pavilion, and his lips suddenly curled into a cold smile. "Block the way? How dare a group of impoverished people, whose country had almost been destroyed by others, clamor here? Yan Jing City is not a place where you can put on airs. Even if His Majesty summons you, if I don't want to let you in, who would dare to open the door? "
Hearing this, the Zhao Clan's elder flew into a rage, "How dare you! How dare you! Does the Northern Yan Imperial Court have any rules?! "
"Rules? When His Majesty is here, his words are the rules. When His Majesty is not here, my words are the rules! "
As soon as he finished speaking, the aura around Chu Xiu's body shot up to the sky and he directly punched at the Zhao Clan's elder.
Xu Yan and Xi Yunzi were very experienced and hid at the side.
Chu Xiu was a madman. Before this, they did not want to provoke Chu Xiu at this time.
Since someone was willing to help Chu Xiu vent his anger, they were more than happy to help.
