"I thought he had succeeded in attaining enlightenment."
"It should be just the last small step."
"What a pity, what a pity."
"He failed to achieve enlightenment and is already dead. Our mission has been completed. Should we keep him alive or send him to the West?"
"The road collapsed. It would be better to die than live. Let's give him a ride."
The six green-faced old men were lucky enough to survive. They were floating in the air, looking at Butcher Zhang who had fallen on the top of the mountain, and they all lamented and regretted him.
Although they were rivals of life and death just now, Butcher Zhang's failure in proving the truth made them unable to help but feel the sadness of a rabbit dying of a fox.
I have spent my whole life asking about the great road, but the great road is ruthless and rejects people. In the end, it turns into a pile of bones, leaving only regrets and sorrows.
They did not see what happened after Butcher Zhang entered the Heavenly Gate, so they did not know that Butcher Zhang actually did not fail to attain enlightenment, but was deprived of the great path.
The false heavenly door opened by the six-pointed star array hides a true heavenly door.
puff!
The white-faced old man waved the sharp sword in his hand.
But halfway through his swing of the sword, his arm flew out at shoulder level.
He was stunned for a moment, and just as he realized that his arm was broken, he realized that his head had also separated from his body and flew out.
The last flash of consciousness told him that he should have been killed by cutting off his head.
It wasn't just his head that flew away from his body, but all six of their heads flew away from their bodies at the same time.
Six heads and six bodies fell from the sky, spraying blood, dyeing a small area of the sky red.
Six people died with their eyes open.
Before their consciousness dissipated, some people thought: If they didn't stay and watch Butcher Zhang's excitement, he might not have died.
"Old man——" An old woman with a slightly stooped body rushed towards Butcher Zhang who fell on the top of the mountain.
She held a sword in her hand, and the six people who were still staring at death were killed by her sword.
"Master——" A middle-aged woman followed closely and cried out sadly and rushed towards Butcher Zhang.
The old woman's name is Huang Daonv, and she is the wife of Butcher Zhang.
The woman who followed behind was Wan Qingqiu.
In fact, the two of them had arrived a long time ago, but they were blocked from the Shifang Mountains by an invisible barrier, which was not broken until just now.
"Old man, don't scare the old woman!" Huang Daonv held Butcher Zhang in her arms. When she found that Butcher Zhang's breath was weak, tears suddenly came out of her eyes.
"Master——" Wan Qingqiu whimpered, trembling with fear.
"cough--"
Butcher Zhang woke up under the power of the Zodiac Girl's star. He coughed out a large mouthful of black blood and his breathing gradually became stronger.
"Qing'er, go back to Eternal City and don't let anyone know that I was injured." Butcher Zhang ordered Wan Qingqiu in a weak voice.
Wan Qingqiu quickly wiped away his tears, used the power of space to hide the three people in the folded space, and flew towards Eternal City.
Butcher Zhang grabbed Zodiac Girl's hand and asked, "Old lady, is your brain working well?"
In recent years, Zodiac Girl's brain has been going up and down. When it's good, she's like a normal person. When it's bad, it's like she has dementia and can't remember anything.
"Don't speak for now. If you have anything to say, wait until the injury heals." Huang Dao Nu said with concern.
"Don't worry, I'm fine, I won't die just yet." Butcher Zhang forced a smile on his face.
But it's not pretty.
There was no blood on his face, it was pale and dull, with a dead air.
He held the Zodiac Girl's hand with his other hand, held it tightly and forcefully, and said, "Old lady, I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?" The Zodiac Girl rolled her eyes at him.
, said angrily: "How long have you been talking nonsense? Let me listen to the good news first to relieve my sad mood."
She said half-jokingly, trying to ease the sad atmosphere.
"We have a grandson." Butcher Zhang said.
"Isn't it four?" asked the zodiac girl.
She heard from Butcher Zhang that he had four adopted grandchildren in the Imperial City.
"There are four, but one of them is our grandson. I originally planned to tell you after bringing him to Eternal City." Butcher Zhang said.
Hearing this, Huang Daonv nodded and said: "Let him come, I will treat him as my own child. The incense of the old Zhang family cannot be broken. But can you tell me which little lover left it for you?"
kind?"
"Haha——" Butcher Zhang burst into laughter upon hearing this, and waved his hands and said, "Don't talk nonsense, he is our biological grandson, the child of Guangyao and that girl from the Shen family."
"Ah?! Really-really?!" Huang Daonv was shocked and couldn't believe it because the news was so sudden and she had never heard Zhang Guangyao say it before.
Wan Qingqiu was also shocked, and the figure of Zhang Xiaozu suddenly appeared in her mind.
"Really." Butcher Zhang said with certainty.
"Why haven't you heard Guangyao mention it before?" Huang Daonv asked doubtfully.
"He doesn't seem to know that he has a child at all." Butcher Zhang said with a wry smile.
He had tentatively asked Zhang Guangyao, but Zhang Guangyao didn't know anything about it, and he didn't seem to be pretending.
"This child is seventeen years old. I have calculated that he should have been born about eight months after Guangyao's accident. It makes sense that Guangyao doesn't know." Zhang Butcher said.
"Is that the kid called Xiao Pawn?" Tears welled up in Huang Dao Nu's eyes.
"Yes, it's him. After the girl from the Shen family gave birth to him, she placed him under a big willow tree at the head of Liujia Village in Baiyun City in the south. Then he was adopted by the kind-hearted villagers of Liujia Village and grew up eating hundreds of meals."
Butcher Zhang's eyes were also a little moist.
"My poor grandson." When she heard that Zhang Xiaopou was abandoned at birth and grew up alone, eating the food of hundreds of families, Zodiac Girl felt sad for a while and burst into tears.
She cried sadly for a while, then suddenly remembered that Butcher Zhang said there was another piece of bad news. Her heart thumped involuntarily, and she hurriedly asked: "What is the bad news you are talking about? Is it related to my poor grandson?"
Zhang Butcher replied: "The people from the Shen family in Zhongzhou went to the imperial capital to look for the pawn. Although they were sent away by His Majesty, they would definitely not let the pawn go easily. After I learned the news, I wanted to go to him to protect him, but who knew what happened?
It’s about this. Sigh——”
"Did the person who just killed you also come from the Shen family of Zhongzhou?" Huang Dao Nu's eyes flashed coldly.
She really hated the Zhongzhou Shen family and gritted her teeth, but there was nothing she could do about it.
If you can't beat them, there's no way.
"It doesn't seem to be the case." Butcher Zhang didn't think so. He guessed that it was someone from the Wentian Sect.
He didn't know the person inside Tianmen either.
"Did you fail to achieve enlightenment, or were you injured?" Huang Dao Nu asked with a frown.
From a distance, she saw Butcher Zhang stepping into the Tianmen, but as soon as he entered, he stepped out, and then the Tianmen closed, seemingly unwilling to admit him.
"The proof failed." Butcher Zhang replied.
He didn't want to tell Huang Daonv and Wan Qingqiu the truth, because after they knew it, they would only feel helpless hatred in their hearts.
It would be better not to know, to have less trouble and more happiness.
"Old lady, can you still fight me?" Butcher Zhang asked Huang Daopo.
"able."
"How many more years can you live?" "How many more years do I want to live?" Huang Daopo had already looked down on life and death, especially after her brain became unclear in the past few years. She often thought that if she could die without waking up, that would be
The happiest thing.
But at this moment, she is focused on survival.
She wanted to take good care of herself and protect her poor grandson from the wind and rain for a few more years.
"You go to the imperial capital, and I will leave my grandson to you." Butcher Zhang shook Huang Daopo's hand heavily.
"Don't worry."
…
There is a Ganle Desert in the northern part of the Western Region.
A stone forest mountain range stretches across the desert. The mountain range stretches vertically from north to south for more than a hundred miles.
There is a valley in the middle of the Stone Forest Mountains.
In the valley, there are shady trees, lush flowers and grass, green water and warm air.
In the vast desert filled with yellow sand, this valley can be described as a paradise on earth.
This is mainly due to the fact that there is a spiritual vein buried underground in the Stone Forest Mountains, which nourishes the flowers, plants and trees in the valley.
Most spiritual veins in the world are occupied by people, and this spiritual vein is no exception. It is occupied by the famous evil sect Hehuan Valley in the Western Region.
But at this moment, a fierce fighting is taking place in the valley.
Ye Mingyue, who suffered two defeats at the hands of Hehuan Valley, came to seek revenge again.
The owner of Hehuan Valley was so shocked that he could hardly speak when he saw Ye Mingyue regaining her vitality again.
Hehuan Valley can be famous in the western region, and it can also occupy the next spiritual vein, all because of the magical poison that can make people want to die.
This poison only has a recipe for refining it, and there is no antidote for it. It is a fatal poison that can kill even the stars.
But Ye Mingyue was poisoned twice and came back alive twice, which shows that Ye Mingyue's poison has been cured.
How could this not shock the owner of Hehuan Valley?
But then came the deep fear and murderous intention.
There can be an antidote to the poison of desire, but it must be in their own hands, otherwise Hehuan Valley will lose its dominance and its status will plummet.
So he wanted to keep Ye Mingyue here and asked her how to cure her ecstasy.
But this time Ye Mingyue brought three powerful helpers, and they were already bleeding like rivers in the valley.
So that the current situation is no longer a question of whether he can keep Ye Mingyue, but that Hehuan Valley is facing the disaster of destroying the valley.
Zhang Xiaozu received Su Hanlin's order to return to the imperial capital as soon as possible, and also sent the deputy master of the Killing Sect, Tu Mo, to protect him, but what he got was not a sense of security, but a deep sense of crisis.
Because of Su Hanlin's nervousness and worry, he has been clearly told that the Zhongzhou Shen family is a terrifying existence that even Su Hanlin is afraid of.
He didn't know where he had offended such a behemoth, but one thing he knew very well was that only when he became stronger could he stand at the same level and talk to this behemoth. Otherwise, he would only be a piece of meat on someone else's chopping block, and others would say he was guilty.
He can only be guilty.
So after confirming that Hehuan Valley's crimes were truly heinous, he readily agreed to Ye Mingyue's request to help her avenge her, on the condition that the spiritual veins underground in Hehuan Valley would belong to him.
He needs this spiritual vein to improve his cultivation.
After learning that Zhang Xiaozu had a way to resist the Hehuan Valley's ecstasy poison, Tu Mo, the deputy master of the Killing Sect, and Tian Can, the master of the Ear and Eyes Sect, readily agreed to cooperate once more.
The former's conditions were that he would get the poison recipe for the immortal poison and half of the treasures in Hehuan Valley.
The latter was moved by the remaining half of the treasure.
The battle went very quickly.
Zhang Xiaozhu was very glad that he had not offended the Six Gates of Killing Men, because the ferocity of Demon Slaughter made him frightened.
