Chapter 1591: Hosting a banquet (for the cat from Xianyu Street, leader of the Silver League)
Although Lu Zizhen asked the disciples of Yixing Pavilion to keep silent about Liang Yan's arrival at Yixing Pavilion, there were too many people present at the time. In addition to the disciples of Yixing Pavilion, there were also monks from various sects in the Zhao Kingdom.
Of course this matter cannot be hidden.
Two days later, Yan Kingdom, Piao Miao Valley.
In a quiet courtyard, a short old man wearing a Confucian robe and a goatee was lying leisurely on a deck chair.
He was playing with a few pieces of tortoise shell in his hand. Although he looked a little lazy on the outside, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes from time to time.
At this moment, at the entrance of the cave, ripples suddenly appeared in the void, and a moment later, a figure appeared out of thin air.
This person is actually a seven-year-old child, with red lips and white teeth, and pink and jade limbs. He looks quite cute at first glance, but if you look closely, you will find that his eyes are very evil, and he seems to be haunting.
Powerful!
As soon as he appeared, the child raised his eyebrows and said impatiently: "Friend Wen, why are you so anxious? I am still in retreat, but you sent three secret messages in a row, insisting that I come to see you.
No?"
It turns out that the old man lying on the recliner is none other than Grand Master Wen, the number one person in the world of cultivation in Nanchui today!
Wen Taishi waved the folding fan gently in his hand, with a leisurely look, and said with a smile: "Brother Scorpion, you have been in seclusion these years. You should have reached the ninth level of "Scorpio Magic Skill" soon, right? I'm afraid you won't be able to do it again.
In a few years, Brother Scorpion will also have a chance to break through the bottleneck in the late Tongxuan period."
Although he was smiling, his words had profound meaning.
The Scorpion Boy's eyes flashed, and the displeasure just now disappeared instantly, and he turned to a smiling face, and said: "I heard that fellow Taoist has received an award. The "Scorpio Demonic Art" is so difficult to practice. The ninth level is
It's a long way to go. What's more, breaking through the bottleneck requires more than just one skill, chance, magic weapon, elixir, and state of mind. All of them are indispensable. With this qualification, even if I have two hundred years, I'm afraid it will be difficult to break through."
What he said was extremely modest, but Master Wen didn't seem to believe it, and just smiled with a noncommittal expression.
After a while, Grand Master Wen said leisurely: "Fellow Taoist Demon Scorpion, speaking of which, we haven't caught up with each other for a long time. Since we are here today, why don't you just sit with me, an old man?"
"Since I heard that my fellow Taoist has such a refined spirit, I should accompany you."
The Scorpion boy cupped his hands and sat down opposite Master Wen.
There was a stone table between the two of them, and Master Wen casually took out a pot of spiritual tea and brewed it for each of them.
"Fellow Daoist Scorpion, there is a rumor recently. Have you heard about it?"
"Oh? I've just come out of seclusion. I wonder what kind of rumor it is that has alarmed Fellow Daoist Wen?"
"I heard... an old friend came to Yixing Pavilion."
"Old friend? From Yixing Pavilion?"
The Scorpion Boy was stunned for a moment, rolled his eyes a few times, and suddenly said in surprise: "Could it be him!"
"Yes, it's him!"
Master Wen nodded, as if there was no need to say more about this "he", both of them knew it well.
"I didn't expect that he wasn't dead..." The Scorpion Boy murmured.
"The first thing he did when he returned to Nanchui was to kill Tang Caihuan and reorganize Yixing Pavilion." Master Wen said leisurely while sipping tea.
"Did Tang Caihuan die in his hands?"
The Scorpion Boy was slightly surprised.
You must know that Tang Caihuan was a monk in the early stage of Tongxuan, and Liang Yan was only in the early stage of Jindan when he left. In a mere two hundred years, could it be that this person has grown to the level of True Lord Tongxuan?
"Actually, there's nothing strange about it."
Grand Master Wen smiled slightly and said: "You have forgotten that back then he killed Taoist Hong Yu with his cultivation in the Golden Core Realm. If it hadn't been for that battle, how could we have annexed the Qianyuan Holy Palace? Without the Qianyuan Holy Palace
With so many resources, how can you and I practice so fast?"
"That's right." The Scorpion Boy nodded and said: "This boy is a sword cultivator. He is indeed capable of killing enemies beyond the ranks. Back then, he killed Hong Yu, but now Tang Caihuan has been deceived by you and me.
He is a walking corpse, so it is not surprising that he killed him."
"The problem now is that after he kills Tang Caihuan, his next target should be you and me."
"Want to kill us?"
The Scorpion Boy sneered and said: "Then he is too arrogant! He dares to come back for revenge in just two hundred years. In this time, even if he has some chance, he can cultivate to the early stage of Tongxuan at most, how can it be you and me?
Their rivals?"
"That's not what I said."
Wen Taishi took a sip of tea and said calmly: "This boy is not an ordinary person. At that time, with his early cultivation of Jindan, he was able to kill Taoist Hongyu across the ranks. Now that he has returned to Nanchui, his strength is even more unfathomable. How can we wait for him?"
You can’t underestimate the enemy in the slightest.”
"That's different. Taoist Hong Yu didn't know that he had Jian Pill at the time, so he was caught off guard. Otherwise, with his initial strength of the Golden Pill, how could he kill Hong Yu? And two hundred years later, the cultivation level of the two of us has changed.
They are also advancing by leaps and bounds, plus the treasures we found overseas that day, even if this boy named Liang has ten lives, there is no way he can defeat us!"
"hehe."
Master Wen smiled slightly and seemed not to deny the Scorpion Boy's opinion.
However, he was cautious, cunning and suspicious by nature. At this time, he slowly said: "Friend Demon Scorpion, be careful to sail the ten thousand year ship. Have you ever thought about what would happen if this guy named Liang didn't come to us directly, but rushed to
What should the Yungang Sect do if they unite with that old thief Yuan Ya?"
"this......."
The Scorpion Boy was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Yes, he is a disciple of the Yungang Sect, and it is very likely that he will join forces with the Yungang Sect. The old Taoist Yuan Ya has kept a low profile these years, and has bowed to us on the surface, but secretly he must be waiting for an opportunity.
Originally, as long as Tang Caihuan died, we could take action against Yungang Sect, but we didn't expect that this boy named Liang not only survived, but also returned to Nanchui, which added a few variables..."
Having said this, the Scorpion boy's eyes flashed, he looked at Grand Master Wen and said with a smile: "Friend Wen, why bother beating around the bush? Since you called me here, you must have already got a good plan, right? How should this matter be handled?
I would also like to hear some advice from Taoist fellow Taoist."
"hehe."
Master Wen touched his chin and smiled slightly: "Actually, it's simple. This little thief named Liang has learned the art of sword cultivation, has made rapid progress in cultivation, and has achieved success at a young age. He must be arrogant now. We might as well give him a shot.
Let him take the initiative to come to us and arrange a 'beheading banquet' for him. Before the old Taoist Yuan Ya comes out of the mountain, let him, his disciple, die on the way."
After hearing this, the Scorpion Boy frowned slightly and said slowly: "This is indeed a method, but the man named Liang is not a fool. Even if he is a little arrogant, he cannot come to the appointment alone."
"So, we have to provoke him!"
"Oh? How about a radical method?"
"Do you remember Tang Diexian?" A sly smile appeared on Master Wen's lips.
The Scorpion Boy was stunned for a moment, nodded and said: "Of course I remember, this girl is extremely talented and was designed to get rid of her two years ago. I remember that she was seriously injured by your disciples at that time, and her injuries were serious after she escaped back to Yixing Pavilion.
It gets worse and worse, and finally ends in depression.”
"Hehe, I'm not hiding anything from you."
Wen Taishi said in a sinister tone: "When that little girl was trapped in a tight siege, one of my disciples cut off one of her arms, and it is still preserved today. When the time comes, I will write a letter to the boy surnamed Liang and record the arm."
I sent him my arm and said that I was deeply sorry for the death of Tang Diexian that year, and I specially held a banquet to apologize and invited him to come to the banquet."
When the Scorpion Boy heard this, he was slightly startled and thought to himself:
"This old fox kills people but also kills his heart. He is really vicious!"
Although he was thinking this in his heart, he made a look of realization on the outside, clapped his hands and smiled and said: "Great! Fellow Taoist Wen, this move is really brilliant! Liang Yan and Tang Diexian were also a pair of hard-luck mandarin ducks back then, and now two hundred years later
In the past, when you came back and saw that your sweetheart was dead, how could you remain calm?"
"hey-hey......"
A proud smile appeared on Master Wen's face, and he slowly said: "In order to prevent this little thief from becoming suspicious, I will come forward alone when the time comes, while my Taoist friends will hide in the dark. As for the location of the banquet, it is also
If it can’t be located in our sect, then it should be located in the ‘Seven Dou Peak’!”
"Seven Dou Peak?" The Scorpion Boy pondered for a moment and nodded: "Yes, that's right. It's the border between Zhao and Yan. It's not easy to arouse his suspicion. Moreover, it's the gathering place of seven spiritual veins. It's easy to
It is a perfect place to hide murderous intent and set up an ambush."
Grand Master Wen said again: "Then again, Liang Yan's sword cultivation method is indeed powerful. After so many years, I don't know what level his strength has reached. In order to prevent accidents, you and I have put down the entire sect.
He will be brought there by his disciples, and the 'Qiankun Killing Array' will be set up at that time, and you and I will personally preside over it. No matter what, we will kill him at the 'Seven Dou Peak'!"
After hearing this, the Scorpion Boy was slightly startled and said: "Isn't this too much of a fuss? Bring all the disciples of the sect? And also set up the 'World Killing Formation'? Doesn't that mean we have to use the weapons we obtained from overseas?"
Those two treasures?"
"What do you know!"
Wen Taishi snorted coldly and said calmly: "Since we are going to do something, we must make it foolproof. Two hundred years ago, we let him run away. Since he dares to come back this time, we will let him fly without wings!"
...........
Zhao Guo, Yixing Pavilion, on Cangmu Peak.
A man in gray clothes sat on the ground.
In front of him, there was a solitary grave about three feet high. Around the solitary grave, several empty wine gourds were lying in random directions.
The man drank all his wine, flicked his right hand, and dropped the last chess piece on the chessboard.
"This game of chess is over."
With a gentle sigh, the man stood up from the ground.
Taking one last look at the tombstone, the man pinched the magic formula in his hand and turned into a gray ray of light that rose into the sky and left Cangmu Peak in an instant.
Not long after, the bell of the Yixing Pavilion Patriarch's Ancestral Hall rang.
