Shangguan Lingyun wanted face. When Zen Master Luo Yun stood out for the first time, he did not leave. Instead, he snorted coldly and said, "Since when did the Buddhist sect's people all become pimps? Inviting a monk to preside over an engagement ceremony is simply neither fish nor fowl! "
The moment these words came out, only to see Zen Master Luo Yun's expression immediately turn grim. But he did not go and argue with Shangguan Lingyun. After all, regardless of whether it was strength or age, he was considered Shangguan Lingyun's senior.
He directly said to the two disciples behind him, "Go! Chase them out for me! I'll talk to the Shangguan Clan's people about this matter! "
Those two Buddhist sect disciples nodded their heads. They both had Xiantian Realm cultivation. Moreover, they both came from the Buddhist sect. Compared to other sects, the number of Buddhist sect disciples might not be the most, but their strength among those in the same rank was indeed ranked at the forefront among the numerous sects.
This group of Shangguan Clan's people in front of them, only Shangguan Lingyun this good-for-nothing and his lackey were at the Xiantian Realm. The rest were simply nothing to worry about.
And these two Buddhist sects also bore a grudge against Shangguan Lingyun for speaking rudely to their Buddhist sect previously. They came up without saying a word and directly attacked over forcefully.
Shangguan Lingyun shouted as he retreated when he saw the situation, "What are you doing?! Just what is your Buddhist sect trying to do? Do you really think that my Shangguan Clan is easy to bully? "
But right at this moment, the eyes of Su Ziqing, who was beside him, revealed a trace of cold light. His figure followed Shangguan Lingyun and retreated backwards. Just when those two Buddhist monks thought that they had already admitted defeat and their vigilance dropped to the lowest, the longsword in his hand suddenly pierced towards one of the monks. The edge of the sword swallowed and spat out a meter of scarlet sword light, appearing incomparably ruthless.
That Buddhist monk jumped in fright. Both his palms directly released a trace of golden aura, clamping that sword between his palms. But at this time, Su Ziqing's eyes revealed a hint of viciousness. He directly let go of the longsword in his hand. A short sword already appeared in his left hand at goodness knows when.
Su Ziqing's arm twisted like a snake, shredding that monk's protective true qi from an extremely bizarre angle. He stabbed the short sword into his chest and even twisted it forcefully!
Seeing that the corner of the monk's mouth was already foaming with blood, Su Ziqing hurriedly retreated while shouting, "Young Master, run! Once these monks make their move, they will definitely want to imprison you in the Black Prison and the Demon Suppression Pagoda! "
From the moment Su Ziqing made a move to kill until now, everyone present was stunned. Shangguan Lingyun did not think that Su Ziqing would actually make a move to kill, while Zen Master Fallen Cloud's side did not think that the Shangguan Clan's side would actually dare to make a move to kill.
Actually, Zen Master Fallen Cloud only wanted to chase Shangguan Lingyun out this time. He did not wish to imprison the other party in the Devil Subduing Tower and Black Prison.
After all, the other party was a member of the Shangguan Clan. If the Buddhists wanted to take it seriously, with Shangguan Lingyun's conduct, while the Demon Subduing Tower might not be enough, he would definitely have to stay in the Black Prison for over a decade.
However, the Shangguan clan and the Seven Heroes Guild had already admitted defeat, and their prestige in Runan had been greatly reduced. At this time, the Buddhists would not go too far and force the other party into a corner.
But now? Shangguan Lingyun actually dared to kill his Buddhist sect's people. This time, forget about the Black Prison, there was a spot for him, Shangguan Lingyun, inside the Demon Subduing Tower!
Although the one who killed was Su Ziqing, in Zen Master Fallen Cloud's view, that person was simply Shangguan Lingyun's lackey. The person he killed, that was the person Shangguan Lingyun killed.
"Insolence!"
Zen Master Fallen Cloud's originally benevolent and amiable face revealed a hint of killing intent, becoming abnormally horrifying.
Buddhas had the wrath of vajra too, let alone now that his disciple was actually killed in front of him.
Zen Master Fallen Cloud's figure moved, and he pounced a distance of over a hundred feet in an instant. A palm landed. Golden Buddhist light flashed, directly tearing through the air. Su Ziqing who was several hundred feet away from him was struck by this palm wind. Even if he was several hundred feet away, he was still struck by this powerful force, spewing a mouthful of fresh blood.
But not only did his movements not weaken, he instead borrowed this force to escape even faster. In a blink of an eye, he already escaped out of the Lin Family, vanishing without a trace.
Zen Master Fallen Cloud turned back to look at Shangguan Lingyun, who was still in a state of astonishment, and shouted sternly, "Capture all of them! If the Shangguan clan wants to blame, my Buddhist sect will bear it! "
Everyone present exchanged glances. With the Buddhist sect backing them up, they naturally had to make a move. Moreover, in this kind of situation today, they had no way of holding back either. Either offend the Shangguan clan or offend the Buddhist sect. Hence, they chose the latter now.
Three days later, inside the Shangguan clan, the entire Shangguan clan was shrouded in gloom. The Shangguan clan's current family head, Shangguan Ling, had a gloomy expression. As for the other Shangguan clan martial artists, it was the same.
But the strange thing was that the current Shangguan clan was clearly divided into two factions.
As the family head, Shangguan Ling sat in the centermost. Around him were divided into two factions. On one side were the Shangguan clan members of the Cold Heaven Region. On the other side were the former Lower Realms Shangguan clan members.
The Cold Heaven Region's Shangguan clan members were naturally led by Shangguan Ling. Furthermore, there were several Yang Gods.
The strength of the Lower Realms Shangguan clan members was somewhat weaker. There were only two Yang Gods. They were the two brothers, Shangguan Feiyun and Shangguan Zhaoyun.
Originally, the strength of the Lower Realms Shangguan clan was still alright. However, those elders in the past were already old people. Although they had the strength of the Yang God Realm, they could no longer fight. Hence, the current Shangguan clan in the Lower Realms was led by the two brothers, Shangguan Feiyun and Shangguan Zhaoyun.
Shangguan Ling said with a gloomy face, "At present, news has come from the Buddhist sect. Shangguan Lingyun snatched the bride in public and spoke rudely to the Buddhist sect. He even brutally killed a Buddhist disciple on the spot.
Now, the Buddhist sect has already said that Shangguan Lingyun is unpardonable, but their Buddhist sect is merciful and will not kill him. However, they will force Shangguan Lingyun into the Demon Subduing Pagoda in public.
But I don't need to say more about what kind of place the Demon Subduing Pagoda is. Even the strong men of the Kamibashi Area have been locked inside. Shangguan Lingyun, a Connate martial artist, will definitely die if he enters.
But the problem now is, what should our Shangguan clan do? "
The moment these words came out, a Yang God on the Frigid Heaven Region's side immediately said in a cold voice, "What time is it right now? Our Shangguan Clan has issued repeated orders for disciples to be strictly prohibited from stirring up trouble. In the end, this Shangguan Lingyun is good, directly turning a deaf ear to the family clan's orders. Not only did he go out to stir up trouble, he actually even killed a Buddhist sect disciple. Such a person, I suggest that we directly expel him from the family clan, lest he disgraces our Shangguan Clan! "
The moment these words came out, it turned out that the faces of the Lower Realm's Shangguan Clan's people immediately became extremely ugly.
Even if Shangguan Lingyun was a good-for-nothing, he was also a disciple on their side. Especially to Shangguan Feiyun and Shangguan Zhaoyun, Shangguan Lingyun was their lineage's direct descendant.
Shangguan Feiyun directly snorted coldly and said, "The person wasn't killed by Shangguan Lingyun either. The Buddhist sect can't catch the person, so they want to use my Shangguan Clan's people to take the blame?
Moreover, even if it's really my Shangguan Clan's people who committed a mistake, then the Buddhist sect just needs to notify. My Shangguan Clan will also give them face and deal with Shangguan Lingyun. But now, the Buddhist sect is preparing to throw Shangguan Lingyun into the Demon Subduing Pagoda in public. What does this count as? Smacking my Shangguan Clan's face? "
Shangguan Feiyun's words were not siding with Shangguan Lingyun, but this sort of thing was simply an unspoken rule that they, these major factions, tacitly agreed to.
For example, if Shangguan Lingyun offended the Seven Heroes Guild, Shen Wuming would teach Shangguan Lingyun a lesson in public, or even kill him. But that would indicate that they were shedding all pretense of cordiality with the Shangguan Clan.
Hence, the safest approach should be to tell the matter directly to the Shangguan Clan. And as long as the Shangguan Clan's Family Head was not an idiot, then he would make the most correct choice, severely punish Shangguan Lingyun, and give the Seven Heroes Guild an explanation. This way, both parties could be considered to have face and substance.
And now, the Buddhist sect's approach clearly showed that they did not place the Shangguan Clan in their eyes. Or it should be said that they were not worried about shedding all pretense of cordiality with the Shangguan Clan from the start.
And at this time, the Shangguan Clan martial artist from the Hantian Region opposite sneered coldly and said, "Even if the person wasn't killed by Shangguan Lingyun, he was the one who brought him there. The Buddhist sect's account naturally has to be placed on Shangguan Lingyun.
That murderer Lu Qing ran really fast. In a day's time, he escaped out of Runan Path with the entire Lu Family. Now that the Buddhist sect can't catch him, there naturally has to be someone to atone for the crime and vent their anger.
Rather than leaving him to continue giving trouble to my Shangguan Clan, might as well directly let him stay in the Demon Subduing Tower. "
Shangguan Feiyun directly slammed the table and said sternly, "What's the meaning of this? My Shangguan Clan is at any rate one of the six great aristocratic families. Could it be that we have to bow and scrape like this in front of the Buddhist sect? Or is it that you're simply not planning on saving Shangguan Lingyun because he's a member of my Lower Realms' Shangguan Clan's lineage? "
The moment these words came out, everyone present immediately fell silent. Following that, both sides started cursing at each other angrily.
The Lower Realms' Hantian Region's side did not have a sense of security. To them, Shangguan Lingyun could be dealt with. Even if they took him back from the Buddhist sect and executed him, they would not care.
But now, the Hantian Region's Shangguan Clan's side actually wanted to directly abandon Shangguan Lingyun. This made them somewhat unable to accept it.
Today, they were able to abandon Shangguan Lingyun. In the future, if something really happened to their lineage, would this bunch of people be prepared to abandon them too? Hence, under the sympathy of the hare, they absolutely would not allow Shangguan Lingyun to die just like this.
And over at the Hantian Region's Shangguan Clan's side, it was not that they did not have such thoughts either. After all, they all merged later. In their bones, there was actually this kind of contempt for the other party and the intention to completely annex the other party.
Hence, when both sides started quarreling like this, it could be said to be incomparably intense. They nearly came to blows.
And at this time, seeing that the matter was getting more and more intense, Shangguan Ling directly shouted angrily, "All shut up! The Buddhist sect's side hasn't done anything to us yet, and we're already having internal strife first. Isn't this making a joke out of ourselves?
Enough talk. This matter doesn't need you all to come and discuss. I'll settle the remaining matters. Tomorrow, I'll personally go find Jinguang Temple's Abbot Pu Xuan and strive to convince him to return Shangguan Lingyun. "
