Chapter 2289: Confrontation between the two factions (Part 2)
Shenxuzi did not say anything after hearing this. He must have been quite confused in his heart, and the atmosphere in the hall also fell into silence.
Unexpectedly, not long after, an urgent shout came from outside the hall, completely breaking the calm atmosphere:
"Not good~! Something bad has happened!"
Along with the shout, a thin old man in a Taoist robe hurried over. Judging from his cultivation level, he was about the early stage of fusion, but his hair was gray and his face was full of wrinkles. It was obvious that his lifespan and vitality had been seriously lost. He was the Master Miaofa who specialized in divination.
However, at this moment, this old senior had a deep panic on his face. As soon as he entered, he noticed that the atmosphere was different, so he hurriedly pretended to be calm and said:
"Hello, brothers and sisters, report to the head brother, I have something important to report...!"
Seeing this situation, everyone present frowned slightly.
Although this Junior Brother Miaofa was weak in combat and almost at the bottom of the same level, he was still a strong man in the Fusion Stage, so the matter that could make him so panic was definitely not simple, so all the cultivators realized the seriousness of the problem.
And Shenxuzi was the first to speak, with a majestic tone:
"Junior Brother Miaofa, you are still an elder of our sect, how can you be so panicked? Just tell me what happened...!"
After getting the approval of the Sect Master, the old man Miaofa seemed to have taken a reassurance pill, and hurriedly began to tell the story carefully:
"Report to the Sect Master, a disciple just sent back a secret letter, the elite of the Dark Hall sent by our sect to the Burning Heaven Region was suddenly attacked and encircled by the Black Dragon Mountain forces, and they have... all been... The army was wiped out, and only a few disciples who were good at escaping escaped by chance. However, their whereabouts were unknown after they sent back the secret letter. I am afraid that they are most likely in danger! "
"I just checked, and the soul tablet of the Dark Hall was indeed broken into a large piece............!"
"What............?"
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Shenxuzi, who had always been sitting on the high platform, almost stood up suddenly, and a monstrous momentum suddenly burst out, quickly covering the hall. Obviously, he was also shocked by this news!
It should be known that the Dark Hall of the Shinto Sect has always been directly under the jurisdiction of the head of the sect. When he goes out, he represents not only the deterrence of the Shinto Sect, but also the face of the head of the sect. Moreover, this mission was also facilitated by him, but now all the people sent out are dead, which is tantamount to slapping his old face!
Because of this, when Shenxuzi heard such shocking news, his face instantly sank, and his eyes were even more chilling!
On the other side, the three masters Tianlang, Taixing, and Dongyuan were also extremely shocked, and they immediately cried out in surprise:
"What the hell~? Black Dragon Mountain? Isn't that a subordinate force of Yuding Mountain? I also have some impression of Gu Nantian. How dare such a bastard attack our sect? This is impossible, right?"
"Hasn't Yuding Mountain always claimed to be peaceful? How could they do such a stupid thing? Do they think that our Shinto sect is easy to bully?"
"Hmph~! Our sect and Yuding Mountain have always kept their distance. Even if this action is suspected of being beyond the scope of the law, it will definitely not go to such an extent. Could it be that those people have become stupid because of their alchemy skills?"
...................
For a while, the crowd was furious!
And the most shocked person was the old ancestor Tiancan.
Originally, I thought that the death of my beloved disciple was caused by my fellow disciples, but now that the elite members of the Dark Hall were wiped out, the situation was completely different. It was obvious that someone deliberately came to the Shendao Sect, and Mo Qing, as one of the responsible persons, naturally became the primary target!
After figuring out the reason, Tiancan Patriarch suddenly became enlightened, and at the same time, he couldn't help but feel angry. He immediately said with murderous intent:
"Okay, okay! Gu Nantian, what a piece of shit, dare to kill my beloved disciple, this revenge must be paid with blood!"
After saying that, this old man who was usually kind and friendly turned around and walked out of the door, looking murderous.
Probably because the higher the cultivation level, the greater the gap between the small realms, especially when it comes to the fusion stage, the gap can only be described as a chasm, so Tiancan Patriarch has absolute confidence that he can kill the Black Dragon Patriarch on the spot!
Seeing this situation, Tianlang and Taixing's eyes flickered. After all, although this matter sounded very angry, Antang was the head of the sect after all, and Mo Qing was the eldest disciple of Dongyuan, so it would not affect the other two sects. Therefore, based on the principle of "a friend's death is better than the poor Taoist's death", the two of them could be said to be indifferent to the matter, just like watching the fun.
It's just that it involves the sect's major affairs, so they still have to do what they should do, otherwise it will inevitably give people a reason to criticize.
Therefore, the two did not hesitate and spoke up one after another:
"Don't worry, Senior Brother Tiancan, let me help you!"
"That's right, this Black Dragon Mountain is simply lawless. This time we must kill all of them to commemorate the dead souls of our sect. Otherwise, if the news spreads, people will think that our sect is afraid of Yuding Mountain!"
..................
While they were talking loudly, the two old foxes had already made up their minds. This time, they would just wave flags and shout. If they really wanted to fight, they would just pretend. Anyway, there are tall people to hold up the sky if it falls!
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the head of the sect, Shenxuzi, spoke, and he was the calmest in the whole audience.
"Wait~! Senior Brother Tiancan, don't be impulsive. This matter is too strange. Before we investigate it clearly, we must not act recklessly. Otherwise, once the war starts, there will be no turning back. Are you willing to bear the consequences of breaking up with the Alchemy Holy Land?"
After these words came out, the atmosphere in the field was indeed slightly relieved.
The murderous old ancestor Tiancan finally stopped and gradually regained his rationality. The elders also realized the thorny nature of the problem.
Indeed, a Black Dragon Mountain is nothing. With the strength of the Shinto Sect, it can be destroyed in a snap. But the Yuding Mountain behind it is not easy to mess with. As a holy land that controls most of the elixir resources in the spiritual world, I am afraid that no force is willing to completely break up with it, otherwise no one can afford the consequences.
Finally, helpless, the old ancestor Tiancan could only say aggrievedly:
"According to the meaning of the head junior brother, are we going to let that old dog Black Dragon go unpunished? He has already stepped on our head, are we going to swallow our anger?"
"If it doesn't work, we can do it secretly and kill the old dog's entire family first. After Yudingshan investigates, we can talk slowly.........!"
Faced with such crazy remarks, Shenxuzi was too lazy to explain and could only ask in a serious tone:
"Senior Brother Tiancan, let me ask you, with the character of that old thing Gu Nantian, how dare he go against our sect?"
And the Master Miaofa on the side also said at the right time He stood up and said cautiously:
"Ahem~! To be honest, this matter is indeed quite strange. According to the communication from the Dark Hall disciples, the reason why they were surrounded by Black Dragon Mountain this time seems to be because Nephew Mo... killed the other party's young master first, so that old thing lost his mind and took revenge...!"
"And... and before the incident, Nephew Mo suddenly ordered all the Dark Hall elites to be transferred to the vicinity of Black Dragon Mountain. This matter may not escape the other party's eyes and ears, which led to the tragedy...!"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the field suddenly became awkward.
The face of the old ancestor Tiancan changed even more. The anger in his mind finally subsided. I guess reason finally prevailed.
It turned out that after all this trouble, it was his precious disciple who started it first? Even the Dark Hall elites suffered an unprovoked disaster?
From this point of view, it seems that he is really not right!
