Chapter 996
A few days later, Zhang Xiaohua and Dream arrived at a lush mountain range. Dream smiled and said, "I thought that the mountains in our Sect were beautiful. But now, it seems that I'm just a frog at the bottom of a well. There are so many beautiful mountains and rivers here, but the scenery is different from each other. Each has its own unique characteristics, each has its own unique charm. None of them are worse than the Sect's!"
"That's right, even the place where the Dalin Temple is, the whole mountain range may not be smaller than Zhuan Xiang Cult. That huge Guiyuan Tower seems to be no worse than Huan Xu!"
"Fortunately, Zhuan Xiang Cult is now open. There will be plenty of opportunities to come out in the future. Maybe after the martial arts convention, we can ask the leader for a job and walk around the surrounding mountains!"
Zhang Xiaohua clapped her hands, "That's right, that's what it means to laugh proudly in Jianghu!
Unlike now, we have to go back after just a few days! "
"I don't know the name of this mountain. We're just walking around blindly. It'll be troublesome if we want to come back in the future!"
"Isn't that easy?
Just find someone to ask! "
Just as they were talking, Zhang Xiaohua was suddenly stunned. He looked into the distance thoughtfully. When Dream saw this, she also turned her head. Before she could see clearly, the sound of weapons clashing could be heard from that direction!
"Eh?" Zhang Xiaohua was even more puzzled and blurted out, "Why is he here?"
"Who?" Dream looked at the figure in the distance and said, "You can see him?"
"Yes, it's someone I know, so it's easy to recognize him!"
"You know him in Jianghu?" Dream asked curiously.
"Yes, let's go and see. The person I know … seems to be unable to hold on!"
As they spoke, the two of them spurred their horses and rushed forward along the mountain path.
In the time it took to drink a cup of tea, the two of them reached the peak of the mountain. At the peak, there were more than ten people with weapons in their hands, surrounding the two carriages. In front of the carriages, there were two people, one big and one small. The small one was about five or six years old and held a toy sword in his hand. He was fighting with a skinny man in his twenties. The man's sword was casually parrying the attacks. It was obvious that he was just playing around!
The big one at the side was bare-chested, revealing his bulging arms. He held a sword in his hand and was fighting with a tall and fat man. The man also held a sword in his hand, but it was thicker and wider than usual. When their swords clashed, sparks flew.
On the mountain path, Zhang Xiaohua used his Divine Sense to observe the situation. He shook his head.
Earlier at the foot of the mountain, she had seen that the man's sword skills were rusty. He only relied on his arms and some strength. His opponent seemed to be willing to let him win. He only exchanged blows with him and did not take the opportunity to kill him. Therefore, she followed Dream up the mountain path.
Sure enough, the man used his strength to shake off the sword. He was somewhat impatient and said, "Qu Zhigao, do you think it's fun?
I've already let you have more than a hundred moves. Don't you know that you're not my opponent?
Why do you still want to make a pointless struggle? "
The man who used the sword was the street performer that Zhang Xiaohua saved at Lu Town Square. The Bone Solidifying Pill formula was also obtained from this man called Qu Zhigao.
Qu Zhigao said angrily, "Of course I know that I'm not your opponent. But … you destroyed my home and burned down my house. Do I have to grovel and beg you for mercy?"
"You really don't know what's good for you. My Jingli Manor was only interested in your formula. I gave you face and asked you to hand it over. Why can't you listen to the Manor Lord's advice again and again?
Don't tell me that it's really hard to hear? "
"Bah!" Qu Zhigao's spit almost sprayed on the man's face as he shouted: "How shameless! This Qu Zhigao's medicinal plaster is passed down from my ancestors. How can you exchange it for just ten taels of silver from Jing Manor?
Now you're bullying my sect. I … how can I give it to you? "
"Haha, Qu Zhigao, do you think your Horned Dragon Mountain is still the Horned Dragon Mountain from ten years ago?
You're already a street performer and selling medicinal paste. What are you talking about?
The ten taels of silver is the Manor Lord's kindness. If it's up to me, I'll just rob you! "
"Bah, if it wasn't for the fact that Senior Qu left early and didn't leave behind his martial arts, we … we wouldn't be afraid of your Jingli Manor."
"Li Er, don't waste your breath on him. Just take him down. My patience has run out!"
"Yes, Manor Lord. I'll do it now!"
As he spoke, the man who was fighting with the child at the side hurriedly brandished his sword. The child panicked and his sword was sent flying. Then, he was easily caught in the man's hand.
"Qu Zhigao, your son is already in my hands. Are you going to stop or not?"
When Qu Zhigao saw this, he let out a long sigh and threw his podao on the ground. Just as he was about to speak, a yellow figure suddenly flew out from another carriage and pounced on the face of the person who was holding the child ….
In the Tenryū Sect, there was no one in the huge hall. Suddenly, there were sounds of hurried footsteps coming from outside the hall. When the footsteps reached the entrance of the hall, they stopped. After a while, there was still no movement. A strange black figure appeared above the hall. Then, as if he was flying, he flew to the tall chair in the hall. A voice came from the bamboo hat, "What's the emergency?
How dare you disturb my cultivation? "
"Zeng zeng." There were a few light footsteps. A woman came forward and bowed, "Lord Sakra, this little one has found the whereabouts of the Saintess!"
"What?"
Sakra lost his composure. He immediately stood up from his chair and shouted, "Where is Ya?"
"Reporting to Sect Master, the Saintess is now in the Dalin Temple …"
"What?
The bald donkeys from the Dalin Temple?
They actually dared to shackle the Saintess of my Dragon God Sect?
Men … "
"Lord, please calm down, please calm down."
The woman hurriedly said, "The Saintess isn't imprisoned by the Dalin Temple. She is … she is an envoy of the Fragrant Religion. She is here to deliver an invitation to the Dalin Temple!"
"Invitation?
Is it the same as the disciple from the Fragrant Religion who came to deliver the invitation? "
"That's right. The Holy Maiden really went to the Dalin Temple as an emissary of the Incense Cult. She was accompanied by a young male disciple of the Incense Cult. According to the news from the Dalin Temple, this male disciple is called Ren Xiaoyao. He is the only disciple of the Incense Cult.
"Ren Xiaoyao?
The only disciple of the Fragrant Religion? "
Sakra's expression relaxed. He sat on the chair and asked curiously, "When did the Fragrant Religion have a disciple of the Fragrant Religion?
Isn't this going against the Dalin Temple?
What is the Saintess' situation? "
"Reporting to Lord, the Saintess seems to have lost her memory. She doesn't remember anything from the past. Even when our spies in the Dalin Temple tried to probe her using the secret code, the Saintess didn't have any reaction!
Of course, perhaps the Saintess has other arrangements. This subordinate doesn't know. "
"Spies?
How did the Dalin Temple's spies know the Saintess' appearance? "Sakra was somewhat angry.
"Lord, please calm down." The woman was very afraid. She whispered, "Didn't Lord want this subordinate to hurry up?
This subordinate has sent out some of the Saintess' portrait. Lord, rest assured, this subordinate knows that the portrait of the Saintess will not be leaked!
Moreover … they also don't know who the person in the portrait is! "
"En." Sakra asked again, "Is the Saintess returning to the Fragrant Religion?"
"No ~" The woman revealed a strange expression and said, "The Saintess left the Dalin Temple and went in another direction. However, this disciple has already sent people over. But, for fear of affecting the Saintess, this disciple didn't dare to approach …"
"Good, inform everyone that we are heading to the Fragrant Religion!"
"Lord, you are going to participate in the Martial Arts Convention?" The woman was surprised. "Didn't Lord Garuda set off a few days ago?"
But immediately, the woman came to her senses and bowed. "Reporting to Lord, this subordinate will arrange it right away!"
In the Fragrant Religion, in a quiet room on the Fragrant Peak, Nun Jing Yi was sitting on a chair. Nun Xuezhen was also sitting expressionlessly below.
"Lord, the disciples who went out to deliver the invitations have already returned. Although Peacock and Yuyan haven't returned, there is still news … Only Zi Xia and Ren Xiaoyao … Since they entered the Dalin Temple, there hasn't been any news … What do you think?"
"No matter … Ren Xiaoyao went to the Dalin Temple for some other matters. I guess he was asked to stay by Changsheng and the others … Moreover, the Dalin Temple is far away from the Fragrant Religion. I'm afraid the news will be delayed.
By the way, is there any other news about the Immortal Dao people from Rejuvenation Valley? "
"Replying to Sect Master, there isn't. Your respected self also knows that those of the Immortal Dao come and go, if they didn't deliberately let others know, who would be able to see?
We don't know how long this person of the Way of Immortality has been in Jianghu. Not only do we not know about it, I reckon that even the Tenryū Sect may not know about it. That old man … suddenly took a liking to Rejuvenation Valley. It's strange. "
"Are all cultivators of the Immortal Dao pure of heart and few desires, ignoring the mortal world?"
"This subordinate does not dare to make wild guesses. Lord Hierarch is also a successor of the Immortal Dao. This subordinate does not have that kind of feeling!"
"Sigh, that's because my sect's cultivation is still too low. According to my disciple's message, that immortal could actually fly as high as a mountain. That's probably the legendary Wind Controlling Technique. My sect can only float in the air right now. That's still far from it. If the Light Body Technique is already so good, then there's no need to talk about the rest!"
"However … this subordinate still has some thoughts. I don't … don't know if it's appropriate to say it!"
"Haha, you and I are Senior Sister. Although you didn't participate in the official selection and didn't take charge of a hall, but … you have made great contributions to my sect. Others may not know, but how can this sect not know?
If you have something to say, feel free to say it! "
"Thank you, Lord Hierarch, for your wise judgment. This subordinate is happy even if I have to sacrifice my life!"
"There's no need for that. It's all for the foundation of the Incense Sect, for the paradise of my Lingxiang Peak!"
"It's like this, Lord Hierarch. As the saying goes, there's no smoke without fire.
That person of the Immortal Dao doesn't usually appear in the world. Why did he appear after Zixia came to Don't Worry City?
Although … there's no definite connection, but … this subordinate still has some doubts! "
