Chapter 338
Since the people who jumped up from behind the mountain were able to escape Ou Peng's detection, they must be experts in the Jianghu. Ou Peng originally thought that they were the hidden experts of the Righteous Alliance, but when he saw the three old monks standing in the wind with a majestic aura, and the masked woman dressed in palace attire beside them, as well as three other short and strong old men who looked similar, Ou Peng could not help but change his expression. He raised his arm and pointed at them, saying, "You … how can you collude with the Righteous Alliance!"
This sentence was said with surprise at first, but in the end, it was said with gritted teeth.
Yes, those three monks were the Dalin Temple's Elder Chang Sheng, the Arhat Hall's Elder Chang Xing, and the Disciplinary Hall's Elder Chang Geng!
The other four were the famous and mysterious members of the Dalin Temple. Although the woman in the palace dress was veiled, since she was able to appear with the Dalin Temple's Elder Chang Sheng, who else could she be but the leader of the Dalin Temple, Abbess Jing Yi?
The three similar looking old men in hemp clothes were the outstanding figures of the previous generation of Jianghu. The three of them were secretly cultivated by the Dalin Temple and knew a set of joint formations. In their early years, when they roamed Jianghu, they had never been defeated and were known as the world's number one.
How could Ou Peng not be shocked by such a spectacular lineup?
Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that the two major sects, which were both Immortal Dao Legacies and specialized in Martial Dao, would actually work together with the Righteous Dao Alliance to deal with Ethereal Sect!
Even though he had just sent a disciple to ask for help, even though he knew that there were monks among the attackers, he still tried his best to exclude this thought. Moreover, even though he had a faint feeling that by taking down the Luo Shui Gang, he had already offended the Dalin Temple's Disciplinary Hall and that the Dalin Temple might intervene, he never thought that the Dalin Temple, which had never shown its face in Jianghu, would also intervene.
In an instant, Ou Peng understood why the members of the Righteous Alliance besieging the Misty Mountain Villa had to cover their faces. They were indeed afraid that the people of the Misty Sect would recognize them because many of them were not disciples of the Righteous Alliance. Perhaps even more of them were lay disciples of the Dalin Temple.
Understanding this, Ou Peng could not help but feel disheartened. He cupped his hands and said, "Elder Chang Sheng, why are you not at the Dalin Temple but at my Misty Peak?
If I knew that you were coming, I would definitely open the door to the Misty School to welcome you. Why did you have to go through so much trouble to come up from behind the mountain? "
The Elder Chang Sheng clasped his hands together and said, "Almsgiver Ou, I haven't seen you for a long time, your martial arts skills have become extraordinary, to be congratulated."
However, he did not mention to him.
The Misty School Abbess Jing Abbess Jing Yi to the Dalin Temple to meet to greet the Abbess Jing Abbess Jing. "
The old voice of the Dalin Temple rang out, "No need for formalities, Ou Peng, your martial arts are really good."
Ou Peng sneered in his heart. The two of them kept mentioning his martial arts, if he still did not know what they were here for, he would not be worthy of being the head of the Misty School.
However, since the two of them did not mention it, Ou Peng could only pretend that he did not know. He turned to Zhang San and said, "Alliance Master Zhang, our competition is not over yet. It just so happens that there are two seniors here, how about you and I have a good competition?"
Zhang San led the two vice leaders of the Righteous Alliance to challenge the three from the Misty School. He originally wanted to test them, but he did not expect to go for wool and come home shorn. The leaders of the two super sects did not appear in time, causing one of his vice leaders to become a cripple and the other to be injured or dead. He himself also almost died at Ou Peng's hands. Now that he saw Ou Peng challenge him again, how could he still participate?
He only smiled and said, "Alliance Master Ou, let's not beat around the bush. Since things have come to this point, let's be frank. Alliance Master's Misty School's strength has increased too quickly in the past few years. Even Alliance Master and the Misty School's Six Tigers have high martial arts, don't you think you should give us an explanation?"
Ou Peng said, "This is the result of my Misty School's hard work. If Alliance Master Zhang is interested, you can join our Misty School and experience it for yourself."
Zhang San sneered and said, "Hehe, Ou Peng, you're still stubborn. The secret plane's matter has long been spread from Wan Jian Peak. Do you know where the other vice leaders of the Righteous Alliance, the other elders of the Dalin Temple, and the other leaders of the Fragrance Cult went?"
Ou Peng sneered and said, "Could it be that they also went to Wan Jian Peak to destroy the sect?
A small Wan Jian Peak can't afford such a big battle. "
"That's right, Wan Jian Peak alone does not need such a big battle, but what if the Tan family and Yanming Villa are also involved?"
Ou Peng's face slightly changed, but immediately returned to normal. He smiled and said, "You're right. If you want to condemn someone, why worry about the pretext?"
"Hehe, Alliance Master Ou, do you think that the alliance of your four sects is very strong, and the news of the secret plane is very difficult to leak? But you never thought that it was because you were so cautious that the news was leaked."
Ou Peng said, "Alliance Master Zhang, you're really boring. The other three sects are very close to my Misty School, but I don't know what you're talking about."
Zhang San shook his head and said, "Alliance Master Ou, you don't have to deny it. You still don't know that one of the people from your four sects who went to the secret plane for the first time fled to my Righteous Alliance. Otherwise, how could I persuade the elders and Jingyi Nun?"
Ou Peng frowned and said, "If Alliance Master Zhang has the leisure to tell me a story, I'm all ears. If you want to find out the truth from me, I can only say sorry."
Zhang San ignored him and continued, "Leader Ou, I reckon that a person of great importance has a short memory. The first time your Four Sects went to retrieve the treasure, there was an outsider. This person was the leader of the Evil Tiger Gang, Situ Ping."
Ou Peng's eyebrows moved slightly.
"Situ Ping was brought back to the gang by Wan Jian Peak's Ma Xiangyang. Originally, Situ Ping was a meritorious person who brought you to the secret plane. He didn't covet the things in your jade bottles and only gave him some medicinal materials. In any case, you had already made an agreement. However, Wan Chengjiu was stingy and went back on his word. He only used his status as a disciple to perfunctorily restrict his freedom and sent his own disciples to seize the Evil Tiger Gang's territory. How could he let Situ Ping feel at ease?"
"If it weren't for Situ Ping sneaking out of the Myriad Sword Peak a few days ago and coincidentally joining our Righteous Dao Alliance, how would we know such details of such a secret?
Alliance Master Ou, you don't need to deny it. We have already been to the secret plane and we don't want to disturb the peace of your four sects. However, the secret plane is too dangerous. Without the sheepskin scroll to enter the secret plane, my Righteous Alliance has already lost a lot of disciples. We had no choice but to use this method. I hope Alliance Master Ou can be magnanimous enough to forgive us. "
When Ou Peng heard this, he looked up to the sky and laughed, "Let's not talk about whether your story is true or not. Even if it is, you killed two of my junior brothers, destroyed a lot of my disciples, and destroyed a lot of my branches. With just a few words, you want my Misty School to hand over some sheepskin scroll? Aren't you too naive?"
Then, he turned his head and asked the leaders of the two large sects, "Two seniors, don't you think so?"
At this time, the masked Nun Jingyi's old voice sounded again, "Ou Peng, you have wronged me and Elder Zhang. The Righteous Alliance's attack on your Misty School was their own action. Our two sects didn't participate. The matter of your two junior brothers was just an accident. At that time, we only wanted to capture the two of them and didn't have any intention of harming them. However, this Zhang San acted on his own initiative and killed them. This matter is what Elder Zhang Xing and I just heard about it from Elder Zhang Xing. The reason why we came up the mountain so late was to let your Misty School and the Righteous Alliance resolve this enmity first.
You see, now that one of the two vice leaders of the Righteous Alliance is dead and the other is crippled, we can be considered even with the Misty School. What do you think? "
Hearing Nun Jingyi's words, Ou Peng was startled at first. Then, he looked up to the sky and laughed, "What do you think?
What do you think?
My two junior brothers lost their lives just like that. You all just played a trick and said that we're even. Nun, ask yourself, can we be even like this?
My Misty School and He Meimei's Six Misty Tigers are no longer complete. Can we be even?
Moreover, the death knot between the Misty School and the Righteous Alliance has already been formed. Only a life and death struggle can break it. Don't tell me Nun doesn't know? "
Nun Jingyi didn't reply.
Ou Peng asked again, "Nun, please tell me. Was my senior brother also killed by the Righteous Alliance?"
Nun Jingyi looked at Elder Zhang Xing and said, "Hu Yunyi was only seriously injured. Your Misty School lost more than half of its elite disciples. The lower level disciples were all unharmed and have already broken out of the encirclement."
"Yes, Nun, thank you for holding back. I think, at this time, no one in the Righteous Alliance has the strength to seriously injure my senior brother."
Seeing that the Dalin Temple and Incense Religion didn't speak, Ou Peng turned to Zhang San and said, "Alliance Leader Zhang, there is one more thing I need to ask."
Zhang San was expressionless and said, "Leader Zhang, please speak."
Ou Peng pointed to Ou Yan in the distance and said, "This is my younger sister. The whole Jianghu knows that she doesn't know martial arts and doesn't have the strength to truss up a chicken. But when she went south two years ago, she was unexpectedly attacked by people in Jianghu. I want to ask, does your Righteous Alliance still have the morals of Jianghu to attack a weak woman?"
Hearing this, Zhang San smiled and said, "Leader Ou misunderstood. Although my Righteous Alliance isn't a great sect with a history of ten thousand years, we still follow the morals of Jianghu. We can't do something like bullying a weak woman.
However, this matter about your younger sister, I only recently found out. I don't know if Leader Zhang is interested in hearing about it? "
Ou Peng cupped his hands and said, "Leader Zhang, no matter how hostile we are now, I still admire your Jianghu morals of not bullying a weak woman. Elder Zhang Xing and Nun Jingyi are also here. They also heard it. I hope you can be like this as always."
Zhang San didn't understand, but still smiled and said, "This is natural. The two Sect Leaders also know about this."
Ou Peng asked again, "Then Leader Zhang, can you enlighten me, who is so cruel and unscrupulous to attack a defenseless woman?"
Zhang San said, "This person is someone you can't even think of."
