"Will he die?" Looking at his face, Emperor Xiao felt it was inappropriate. "Will he die?"
"If it were so easy for him to die, I would have killed him back then," said Y San.
The Great Grandmaster Xuan Y had his eyes closed. It was unclear if he was really unconscious, or if he had woken up and dared not open his eyes.
Y San didn't mind it, and continued, "Let's take this as a lesson for him. I hope he will understand."
Emperor Xiao said with a faint smile, "He should. It's because he doesn't want to die, just like I don't want to die either."
Y San said, "Among the true enemies of Aoyama, only the three of you are still alive. You should be satisfied."
Looking at his profile, Emperor Xiao said seriously, "I don't want to live in G-Shell all my life."
"I'll solve these problems as soon as possible," said Y San.
Emperor Xiao asked, "What about Jing Jiu? Will he die? "
Y San said, "I don't think he has a reason to live this time."
Emperor Xiao felt relieved, and said, "It's good that he's dead. If you two brothers are both alive, how can the others live?"
Y San glanced at him and said, "It's understandable that the one on the Foggy Island and the one in the barrel are afraid of me, but you and I have known each other for so many years. Are you worried that I'll betray you?"
"It's not a matter of betraying you. The two immortals have exceedingly high magic power, and their calculating ability is immeasurable. They often fight to a draw, but many others have died because of it."
Emperor Xiao continued with a smile, "I think the Zhongzhou School should have a good understanding of this."
The upheaval of the Fiend Prison started when Y San wanted to kill Jing Jiu, so he sent a letter to the prison.
And both he and Jing Jiu wanted to free the King Of The Underworld.
However, the Fiend Prison turned into ruins in the end.
The Old Dragon died.
It was the same in the upheaval of the Guocheng Temple. The Unicorn was stabbed by Y San, and the Zhongzhou School suffered the most.
"A stupid creature like the Unicorn, who has the magic power but no brains, can't possibly kill Jing Jiu. And his position in this scheme is too good."
Y San turned around and walked toward the outside of the room.
Emperor Xiao followed him and asked, "Is it a pity not to touch him?"
Y San said, "Yeah."
Emperor Xiao didn't say anything but sighed with emotion.
No matter how intense the battle was, if they encountered an external force, they would naturally retreat outwards.
They did not deliberately cooperate. It was just a tacit understanding formed over a thousand years, even a kind of instinct.
Who wouldn't be afraid of a pair of brothers like them?
…
…
Y San walked out of the house and looked at the G-shell roof full of grids, like the gray sky. He walked to the pond and sat down, splashing the clean water on his face.
Emperor Xiao's previous worries were actually common sense in the cultivation world hundreds of years ago.
In the current cultivation world's impression, Perfected Jing Y was always in seclusion and rarely came out. However, the older generation knew that he had participated in at least one major event.
In that major event, he and Taiping Zhenren, the two brothers, had caused many people to suffer unspeakably. For example, the Xuan Y Sect, whose headquarters had been destroyed, and the masters and fellow disciples of Aoyama who were imprisoned in the Sword Jail and died in the hermit peaks.
In Emperor Xiao's eyes, the return of these two brothers would cause a great disturbance in the cultivation world, just like what had happened to the Fiend Prison and the Guocheng Temple this time.
Y San of course wanted to kill Jing Jiu, but everything in the world had its own order.
Jing Jiu was not Jing Y. He was also a member of Aoyama, and Aoyama belonged to him.
Looking at the young face in the water and smelling the faint rotten smell coming from the T-shirt, Y San fell silent for a long time.
Why didn't Jing Jiu encounter the same problem as him? Was it right for him to do so?
No, if he had done so, who would he be?
…
…
Jing Jiu and Y San were very good at scheming and making decisions. Though it was unclear how good Zhao Layue and Liu Shisui were at calculating and planning, they were no weaker than them in making decisions.
They determined that Y San had been picked up by the rumored hidden swordsman, so they left the small town by the Ōzawa River without hesitation and returned to the Guocheng Temple as quickly as they could after risking their lives to hunt him down for three days and three nights.
They wanted to bring back the latest information, and more importantly, they were worried about Jing Jiu's current situation.
The Tranquil Garden had turned into ruins and was uninhabitable. Jing Jiu was arranged to stay in the White Mountain meditation room.
The Elder of the Instruction Hall came out from behind closed doors and led three hundred monks to set up the Great Formation of Hua Yan. Even if the Great Grandmaster of the Mysterious Dark Sect and the Unicorn came back, they wouldn't be able to get in.
Monk Duhai sat in a corner with his legs crossed, his body bound by the heavy chains made of the Heavy Sea Iron, unable to move. His eyes were closed, his expression calm.
The Emperor stood in front of the Buddha statue with his eyes closed. It was unclear whether he was praying or adjusting his breath.
In order to suppress the injury in Jing Jiu's T-shirt, he had consumed a lot of Zhen Yuan, so he should be a little tired.
Jing Jiu lay on the bed, his face as pale as paper, his eyes tightly closed, and his eyelashes unblinkingly. It took him a long time to breathe slowly.
His right arm was severely deformed, like a sword twisted by a great force, looking very miserable.
His left hand was still tightly clenched, his fingers emitting a faint light and a fresh breath that was more beautiful than the spring breeze.
Under his left hand, there was a scripture carefully copied by the Elder of the Instruction Hall, so that it could slightly slow down the speed of the fairy aura dissipating.
At that time, Monk Duhai used the Prajna World Palm to launch a sneak attack, and Jing Jiu had no other choice but to try to use his sword to see if he could cut open heaven and earth.
Unexpectedly, at that time, the fairy awareness in the Fairy Book suddenly launched an attack.
Under the attack from both sides, he finally suffered a serious injury that was beyond recovery.
The white cat hid at the end of the bed, reaching out his front paw from time to time to gently scratch Jing Jiu's feet, trying to wake him up. He looked very uneasy.
This was what Zhao Layue and Liu Shisui saw when they walked into the meditation room.
Walking to the front of the bed, Zhao Layue looked at Jing Jiu and asked, "What's going on?"
The Emperor stood in front of the Buddha statue, saying nothing.
The white cat crouched down secretly, not daring to attract her attention. He knew that she looked calm at the moment, but she was actually in a very bad mood.
The Elder of the Instruction Hall told them what happened three days ago, and then he looked at Monk Duhai sitting cross-legged at the doorway, saying with a complicated expression, "Nobody knows why Junior Martial Nephew Duhai did this; he has never said a word."
Zhao Layue turned around and walked to the front of Monk Duhai, her right hand falling on his shoulder, making a light "pah" sound.
Then, a cracking sound was heard.
The Thoughtless Sword emerged from her palm and pierced through Monk Duhai's shoulder, cutting open the most sensitive part of his body, the Sanzhi Channel, and then the tip of the sword came out from his waist.
This sword would bring the most extreme pain to Monk Duhai.
Looking at the scene, the monks of the Guocheng Temple couldn't bear to watch, especially those disciples of the Justice Hall, most of whom were the disciples of Monk Duhai, who were even more furious.
An eminent monk of the Justice Hall suppressed his anger and said, "Senior Martial Brother Duhai has used the Sacrifice Spell, and he can live for another seven days at most. Peak Master Zhao, there is no need to do this."
Zhao Layue didn't pay attention to these monks. She just looked at Monk Duhai's face in Silence, the Thoughtless Sword moving slowly through his body.
Monk Duhai's eyebrows quivered slightly, and he opened his eyes slowly, looking at her.
Zhao Layue withdrew her sword.
The pain in Monk Duhai's eyes gradually turned into calmness, as if he had been truly relieved.
"We didn't know that the Unicorn would come; we only knew that he might come. This is a variable, but it's not important."
He looked at Zhao Layue and said calmly, "The Great Grandmaster Xuan Y doesn't know that his mission is to bring out all the swordsmen around him, but I know that my mission is to wait."
"Wait until there is no one around him?" asked Zhao Layue.
"Yes, and the closer the Fairy Book is to be refined, the better, because he will be at his weakest at that moment."
Monk Duhai said with a smile, "In fact, you should be proud of Jing Jiu. This scheme involved so many important figures, including the Unicorn, the Great Grandmaster, the Emperor, and the Immortal Liu Ci, but the real target was him."
Zhao Layue asked emotionlessly, "Are you sure you have succeeded?"
Monk Duhai said, "I used the Palm of the World to break one of his Dao Trees, and his spiritual soul became stagnant. He couldn't refine the Fairy Book anymore, and he would be killed by the countercharge. This is the plan made by the Immortal; how could it fail?"
"Why?" Zhao Layue asked after a long silence.
She wasn't asking about one thing, but everything.
She was asking about everything, from Guocheng Temple to Aoyama, from Taiping Zhenren to Jing Y.
"I'm probably the only one who can answer this question."
The Emperor turned around in front of the Buddha statue, waving his sleeve to signal all the monks to leave.
Looking at Monk Duhai, the monks of Guocheng Temple felt sorry for him, but they had no choice but to leave.
Only the Emperor, Zhao Layue, Liu Shisui, Monk Duhai, and a cat were left in the White Mountain Meditation Room.
Zhao Layue knew that Jing Jiu trusted the Emperor a lot, so she told him what happened afterward and told him her own judgment.
Taiping Zhenren must have gotten help from another Hidden Swordsman.
"He got away in the end."
The Emperor walked to the stone steps outside the meditation room and looked at the temporary one in the pagoda forest, saying, "In fact, all the stories originated from his greed. How could it be so easy for the world to be at peace?"
…
…
The beginning of this story happened eight hundred years ago.
The Immortal Daoyuan of the Aoyama Sect was sneak-attacked by Nan Qü when he was about to ascend, and his ascension failed.
Because of the Sword Formation of Aoyama, Nan Qü hid on the Foggy Island in the South Ocean and didn't dare show up. He was the first Hidden Swordsman, the current Great Grandmaster of the Foggy Island.
According to Jing Jiu's judgment, the current Godly Swordsman of West Ocean should be from the Foggy Island.
The failure of the Immortal Daoyuan's ascension led to the failure of the Sect Master of Aoyama, who was also the Master of Taiping Zhenren and the Master of the Immortal Jing Y.
The peaks of the Aoyama Sect were in turmoil for a long time in order to compete for the position of the sect master. As the principal disciple of the Sect Master, Taiping Zhenren was considered a threat by the masters of the peaks. They had found many reasons to expel him from Aoyama in the end.
Of course, it was not a true expulsion, like what happened to Liu Shisui.
At the time, Jing Y., Liu Ci and Yuan Qijing didn't have a good time on the peak of Shangde Peak.
Many years later, Taiping Zhenren, whom everybody thought was dead, suddenly reappeared in the human world and traveled for twenty years with the King Of The Underworld.
It seemed that the Underworld and the human world would have a peaceful time.
Unexpectedly, the human Cultivation circle suddenly turned against him.
The Zhongzhou School, Yimaozhai, Kunlun and other sects besieged the King Of The Underworld!
The Fairy Book Descending From Heaven!
The King Of The Underworld was locked in the deep end of the Fiend Prison, and he didn't die together with the Old Dragon until a year ago.
Though what happened later was not Taiping Zhenren's doing, he had done a great service for the human race.
Thanks to this achievement, he returned to Aoyama, intending to inherit the position of the sect master.
The masters of the peaks in Aoyama weren't G.
Taiping Zhenren had already mastered the supreme magic methods of the Aoyama Sect and learned the powerful methods of the Underworld at the time, and he was one of the few swordsmen in the Heavenly Arrival State.
His two main disciples, Liu Ci and Yuan Qijing, were also rare geniuses in the history of Aoyama.
And he claimed that the Dead Dog and the Devil J, two of the Principal Guards of Aoyama, were on his side.
Most importantly, his Young Brother Jing Y. had demonstrated an unimaginable Cultivation state and prowess during the civil strife in Aoyama.
After a brutal and bloody sword fight, some elders of Aoyama died; some elders went to the hermit peaks and swore not to come out; and some were locked in the Sword Jail.
The orthodoxy of Aoyama continued.
Nobody knew what effect the traveling in the Underworld and the suppression of the King Of The Underworld had on Taiping Zhenren.
Yet, it was certain that his ideology had undergone a subtle and secretive change.
Another one hundred years had passed. The Snowy Kingdom experienced a strange change, and the Beast C invaded the south. The Cultivation sects in the north were wiped out, and the orthodoxy of the dynasty was interrupted. The world was in chaos, and the bandits were everywhere.
A talented young woman left the Shui Yue Nunnery and killed forty thousand people and burned down seventeen strongholds of the bandits, stabilizing the situation for the time being.
At the suggestion of Taiping Zhenren, the leaders of a few orthodox Cultivation sects and the last remaining descendant of the royal family, the former emperor, made an alliance in the Plum Garden of Zhaoge City. They worked together to quell the rebellion of the refugees and defeat the army of the monsters of the Snowy Kingdom, finally protecting the human race.
This was the ruling of the world at the Plum Meeting.
By then, Taiping Zhenren had the highest status and endless glory in the Cultivation circle and even in the whole of Chaotian.
Yet, he was not satisfied, because his ideology was still higher than that of the human race.
He chose a talented descendant of the royal family of the former dynasty to carry out his plan. He was the second hidden swordsman.
The world was in chaos, and the deviant sects became stronger. Bulao Lin ran amok in the world. The Underworld invaded, and the No-Mercy Sect was almost wiped out. It was only because of the efforts of the Jing Imperial Court and various orthodox Cultivation sects that the No-Mercy Sect was suppressed.
Four hundred years ago, the Aoyama Sect destroyed the headquarters of the Mysterious Y Sect and made the Great Grandmaster of the Mysterious Y Sect the third hidden swordsman.
It was then that the Immortal Jing Y. discovered that many things had been plotted by his Big Brother.
The two of them had a serious argument.
In the end, the Immortal Jing Y. lived on the Shenmo Peak and didn't care about the affairs of the world, but he kept an eye on Taiping Zhenren.
One day, Taiping Zhenren suddenly disappeared.
Three hundred years ago, the Emperor faked his death and passed the throne to his son. He lived in the Guocheng Temple, cultivating in meditation.
Taiping Zhenren reappeared.
It turned out that he had entered the Underworld again and became the guide of the Underworld Master.
After he returned to the human world, he became the Chief Monk of the Guocheng Temple.
…
…
"Back when my father the Emperor was cultivating in the Tranquil Garden, I came here a few times. But I didn't expect the Chief Monk to be Taiping Zhenren."
Looking at the small stone pagoda in the pagoda forest, the Emperor was lost in thought as he recalled the events three hundred years ago.
Zhao Layue wondered what was hidden in those events and what ideology Taiping Zhenren had that led him to be isolated by his friends and family in Aoyama.
She couldn't help but fall silent when she recalled what Jing Jiu had said to her in the Zhao Garden outside Zhaoge City.
Liu Shisui thought of the young man who came to the vegetable garden and gave the scripts at night, but he still couldn't believe that the young man was the Great Grandmaster Taiping. "The Great Grandmaster is the Sect Master of Aoyama; how could he be the Chief Monk of the Guocheng Temple?" he asked confusedly.
Monk Duhai said, "The Immortal has a profound understanding of the Buddhist methods, and he cares about all living beings. He is truly merciful. Why can't he be the Chief Monk of our temple?"
The Emperor ignored him, and continued, "Taiping Zhenren didn't cultivate the Buddhism for the sake of tranquility, and it had nothing to do with mercifulness. What he wanted was to enter the Wheel of Life and comprehend the principle of reincarnation."
Zhao Layue thought that the late Emperor was cultivating in the Guocheng Temple at the time; was there any connection between the two events?
"He and my father the Emperor were close friends, and they could be called brothers. But he intended to seize my body and return to Zhaoge City as my father."
Looking at the small stone pagoda, the Emperor continued calmly, "Fortunately, he failed. He was imprisoned in the Sword Jail of Aoyama by the Immortal Master Jing Y."
Three hundred years ago, when Taiping Zhenren stayed behind closed doors, Aoyama issued a prohibition order within four hundred miles, and the imperial army was dispatched, shocking the world.
It turned out that this was the truth.
