The An clan will be a bit anticlimactic, because no result was announced after the contest, but one thing is very clear, any monk who does not have more miracles than the Taoist monks will not have any chance.
Everyone also knows that one of Bei Anhe's two true disciples has been determined, and that is Taoist Yi; even if there are outsiders who perform better than her, as an authentic disciple of Anhe, Taoist Yi's network advantage is understandable.
As for the other quota, should we choose among the five foreigners Wu Qi, Zhou Chuyan, or a Yanmen sword cultivator?
An Zhenren did not come forward or express any inclination. On the one hand, this was to protect the people he really liked, and it may not mean to encourage these people to compete privately.
Not surviving until the day of announcement is the best way to eliminate.
"I have some unfinished ideas in this gathering. I think carvings are not my specialty. I and a few others are planning to hold another Dharma gathering. I would like to invite all Anhe friends to attend. What do you think of your friendship?" Taoist Master Zhou came over and came out.
Sound invitation.
The purpose is very clear, that is, if you are not satisfied, you only use words but do not take action, and the strength of each person is not reflected at all. Since the An clan will not give everyone this opportunity, then do it yourself.
Firstly, he wanted to take advantage of the large number of people to seek personal connections in front of these Anhe monks and become familiar with them; secondly, he also wanted to show himself in an all-round way in this way; thirdly, he wanted to judge the ranking among several major competitors.
, seeking a sense of psychological superiority.
It can be imagined that the competition between these Taoists is second to none. First of all, they have to knock down his arrogance as a Demon Sect swordsman. This is the main reason why they invited him.
Hou Ting smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for the invitation, fellow Taoist, but I have important things to do. I'm afraid I won't be able to stay for long. It has already taken a lot of time to attend the An clan meeting... Next time, if Tao is destined, we can always meet."
A trace of dissatisfaction flashed in the eyes of Taoist Zhou Sect, but it was difficult to say anything in front of everyone, "In this case, fellow Taoist, please help yourself."
This is why they must restart the performance after the An clan meeting. Even if they fail to achieve their goal, they will not let this person go easily.
Li Shipeng's eyes were sharp and he didn't even ask where he got the news from Tsuta. "You mean, maybe get a feel for the situation and then come back and report it to the Central Military Administration for them to deal with it?"
Such a gathering is meaningless, so what does it do to show the saint in front of others? Can it solve the problem? It can only arouse the jealousy of monk Anhe, and the hostility of these few who consider themselves competitors.
Seeing him leave, several Taoists looked at each other. They were surprised that the Yanmen sword cultivator, who was always competitive, chose to retreat. This was not in line with the sword cultivator's character.
At midnight, Li Shipeng touched him again and said, "Captain..."
Taking advantage of this return trip, he sent letters asking for help to the governor's mansions in several states around Pingliang, just to put an end to the trouble here in one go.
Hou Zi was very satisfied with this man's sensitivity, "Is there anyone you can really trust?"
If you can't kill people, this kind of acting competition is just playing house, and it has no meaning except to satisfy your own vanity.
At the very least, it will scare the people who care about you. You are young and your level is mediocre. Now you want to get together privately. What do you want to do?
Also, if he joins it with his current level, it will put a layer of shackles on himself, and it will also add an extra layer of restraints to himself; to put it simply, limited to his current level, if he joins, his status will not be high, but he is not
A person who is willing to do as he pleases.
Taoist Truman and Yanmen exchanged glances, "I'm sorry, I have no interest in wasting time on this..."
This is his right, if he doesn't use it, it will be in vain.
Wumen Taoist snorted coldly, "It doesn't matter. I know where he is. He is in Pingliang Prefecture, which borders Anhe. I heard there is some trouble there. Can we go and help him?"
He didn't say goodbye to the Taoist woman anymore, he didn't want to cause trouble for her now.
Li Shipeng nodded, "Not many, just three or five brothers who share life and death."
They are all discerning practitioners. Although they did not get the truth from An Zhenren, subconsciously they will never relax their vigilance against this sword cultivator. This is a roadblock for them to become An He's true disciple.
He now has three forces at his disposal. One is his old subordinates, the Li Zhi Pirates, who followed him south and have been here for more than a year. It was they who pretended to be gangsters who robbed Geng Jing. Mining ship, these people have been out of Lizhihai for several years, and they still have to go back after all. The good situation in Lizhihai is hard-won, so we can't just abandon it easily. After considering the trouble here, he asked Fang Yazi to take the people back. , to avoid long nights and too many dreams.
Li Pirates couldn't bring it out openly, and the Demonic Sword Cultivator had some scruples, so the only remaining force that could be mobilized was the most upright force, which was to mobilize people from the governor's mansions in several states around Pingliang.
The preliminary preparations are almost complete. I have conducted my own investigations and conducted thorough investigations, including the information I received from the Taoist, and I have a general idea. Some things are better solved as early as possible, as delaying them for a long time is useless.
Hou Ting whispered: "Five days later, you take people to the Longjiang Water Mansion, and be careful not to leak any news. I guess those big thieves are lurking in the water mansion, so we in Pingliang Prefecture searched hard and found nothing..."
Sometimes, having enough realm and a certain prestige can save you a lot of unnecessary trouble.
After sending several messages in succession, he quietly returned to Zhongqing City, met with Su Lingyun and Li Shipeng one by one, and exchanged news.
Should this time be later, such as after forming the elixir? If we really contact these rebellious sword demon disciples then, we will save a lot of unnecessary trouble. Therefore, there has been no contact during his trip to Pingliang Prefecture. He doesn't want to spend too much time on how to conquer these people, and he may not be able to conquer them.
There is another power that Yu Zhengxing entrusted to him, those deeply obsessed Yanmen sword cultivators; but he has always been cautious about these people. For him now, using this power will bring him To put extra pressure on.
... Hou Zi made the journey back all the way. This trip took longer than he expected. He hoped that everything in Zhongqing City would be safe.
Hou Zi smiled and said, "Of course we have to give priority to them. Their goods don't pay much to us when they make money. So when there is no reason to work hard, let us do it? But the Duwei Mansion probably can't escape. How many people have to be sent?" I have to deal with it individually...
When the time comes, we can just watch the show on the sidelines and don't really get involved."
Li Shipeng heard the elegant meaning of Xiange and said, "I understand, do those big thieves need to be given a breather in advance so that they can be prepared?"
Hou Zi shook his head, "Don't worry about these things. All you have to do is point the clues to Longjiang Water Palace in five days."
