Before Su Fan could think about it, Ning Qingyu spoke up. First he thanked Zhou Qingyun and Xiong Qingyuan, and then he told another piece of news, which made everyone's expressions change.
"Master, what you said is true. It's not only the old ghost Poison Devil who can master the Poison Palm, there are other people as well, and their strength is not bad either?"
Zhou Qingyun's face suddenly changed color and he asked hurriedly.
"That's right! This is true. I even fought against this man in person back then."
Ning Qingyu's eyes were dazed for a moment, as if he was recalling something, "That was fifteen years ago. At that time, I had not yet reached my peak. I met that group of people in the south of the Yangtze River."
"Later we fought with him. The man's strength was in the middle of the first-class level. I could have killed him with my strength. But then, he got two more accomplices. Their strength was also around the middle-level of the first-class. The three of them joined forces and fell down.
You can also compete with me for a moment or two.”
"Because there was something going on at the time, I only wounded him and did not pursue him. However, one of the man's accomplices had a martial arts skill called Prajna Palm from Shaolin."
"What?"
"Prajna Palm? Master, are you sure?"
Prajna Palm is one of the seventy-two unique skills of Shaolin. Its power is not weaker than Vajra Palm and Thousand-Armed Tathagata Palm.
Those who can learn Prajna Palm are direct descendants of Shaolin, and they are unique martial arts skills that cannot be learned by the monks of Prajna Hall.
"Well! Although he was hiding it, he had no choice but to use it when I was about to severely injure him. Even if there are some changes, it is still Prajna Palm. I can be sure."
Ning Qingyu nodded.
Zhou Qingyun's face suddenly darkened. Since the leader said so, then the person who practices the mysterious poison palm has something to do with Shaolin.
As for the possibility that the Shaolin rebel monk who used Prajna Palm is unlikely, I have never heard of it in these years.
As for Shaolin monks practicing demonic martial arts, that is normal. Many monks in Shaolin are evil people. When they got old, they converted to Buddhism and went to Shaolin.
There is a master in Shaolin who is a giant in the evil world and is now one of the pillars of Shaolin.
"What does the leader mean?"
Zhou Qingyun said that his expression was extremely ugly. It was really like this. Zhou Buyu's death was inseparable from Shaolin.
"Bufan, what do you think?"
Ning Qingyu suddenly looked at Su Fan and asked.
Ning Qingyu's sudden inquiry caught Su Fan off guard, but Zhou Qingyun understood that this might be a test for Su Fan by the master to test his opinions.
Zhou Qingyun understood that Su Fan naturally understood it quickly, so he took a deep breath. Su Fan was still a little excited about Ning Qingyu's test.
He had not considered being the head of the Huashan Sect before, because of Zhou Buyu's existence, it was almost impossible.
If he had joined the Huashan Sect ten years earlier, he would have had a chance to compete with Zhou Buyu.
It's a pity that he entered the Huashan Sect too late.
But now that Zhou Buyu is dead, he really has a chance.
Of course he is willing to become the leader of the Huashan Sect. After all, once he becomes the leader, he will mobilize even greater resources.
More manpower and material resources can be mobilized, his plan to go to sea can be advanced, and the risks of maritime trade can be reduced even more.
Su Fan's first target for sea trade is Japan. Japan produces silver, and the silver mines in Iwami Mountain are a really rich country.
Su Fan naturally wanted a piece of the pie.
Calculating the period, Japan is now in the Warring States Period, and the daimyo of various prefectures are fighting in chaos. Later generations called the Warring States Period as village wars, and there is chaos in various places.
This gave Su Fan an opportunity. It was not the late Jiajing period. Japan had entered the era of Oda Nobunaga after experiencing a melee. At that time, to be honest, Su Fan really had no ability to intervene in Japan.
After all, at that time, Oda Nobunaga almost unified Japan, even though Japan was not strong.
But Su Fan could only organize a thousand people.
A cross-sea attack is no different than seeking death, but it is different now. In Japan today, there is a melee between princes, and hundreds of daimyo are considered princes on one side.
Su Fan organized a thousand warriors, which was definitely a top-notch name.
Su Fan made a fortune from Japan and then expanded. Although Su Fan didn't care much about money, with money, he could develop his power. The stronger the Huashan Sect, the greater the benefits to him.
Of course, the premise of all this is that he can successfully take the position of leader of the Huashan Sect.
Now he is facing the test of the current leader. After pondering for a while, Su Fan slowly said: "What the leader just said, combined with the chaos in the world before and the frequent emergence of demon sects, I feel that the death of senior brother will
As well as the previous death of Li Wufeng, I’m afraid it’s all a conspiracy.”
"A dark force is stirring up trouble in the world"
"And the target is probably our Huashan Sect and the Demon Sect."
Ning Qingyu and Zhou Qingyun were silent at Su Fan's words, but Xiong Qingyuan couldn't sit still, "Apprentice, don't talk nonsense."
"Master, I am not talking nonsense, but there is evidence. First of all, Li Wufeng's death caused fighting and disputes between the Demon Sect's Suzaku Hall and the Shonan area. Fortunately, the Hengshan Sect exercised restraint, and there was no large-scale fight between the two sides.
"
"But even so, there has been propaganda in the world that the Demon Sect will launch a massive attack, targeting the Five Mountains."
"However, the leader restrained himself in time and also reduced his power, so that our Huashan faction and even the Five Mountains did not participate in the ensuing battle."
"But there has been a bloody storm between other forces and the Demonic Cult these days."
"The death of the senior brother now should be due to the person who secretly saw that our Huashan sect was not fooled, so he came up with a plan, which was to divert the trouble to the east, kill the senior brother with the poisonous palm, and blame the demon sect, so that we
Huashan once again clashed with the Demon Cult, eventually leading to a war."
Su Fan became more determined as he spoke, and Xiong Qingyuan became more horrified, "Did you think of these, apprentice?"
He didn't expect his apprentice to be so smart.
But the head's expression remained unchanged, "Then tell me, who is this secret force you mentioned?"
"Shaolin!"
Su Fan calmly uttered two words, and Xiong Qingyuan's face changed wildly.
"What's the basis? You can't just say this out of thin air." Ning Qingyu was still cold, but there seemed to be some appreciation in his eyes.
"Actually, there are not many people who can do this. First of all, Li Wufeng is so powerful that it is difficult for ordinary people to kill him. Only the top powers can do it. In addition to our Five Sacred Mountains, there is also Shaolin Wudang, and of course the imperial court.
"
"Secondly, the Poisonous Palm you mentioned just now, Master, was not practiced by the Poisonous Devil alone. It is also related to Shaolin. This is also a basis."
"Is there any more?" Ning Qingyu asked.
Su Fan was silent for a while and then said: "There is another basis, and that is motive. I have said before that Shaolin has motive. In recent years, the strength of our Huashan Sect has increased rapidly. With the Five Sacred Mountains united, the power is no longer inferior to that of Shaolin and Wudang."
"
"Especially in the past few decades, the battle between good and evil between our Five Sacred Mountains and the Demon Sect has greatly increased the reputation of our Five Sacred Mountains. Their power has almost equaled that of Shaolin, the leader of the righteous path."
"If I were Shaolin, I would also want to suppress Huashan and the Five Sacred Mountains."
"So based on all this, I think Shaolin is the most likely. Of course, the court is also possible, but now the court has not set its sights on the world, so Shaolin is the most likely."
