The figure of the sword spirit gradually disappeared in front of Zhuang Wudao, and then there was no sound again.
Zhuang Wudao stood there, pondering for a moment, and then shook his head slightly. He was still a little worried, but at this moment, he didn't know where Nie Xianling was planning to go, nor where the two girls were at the moment. Even though
No matter how worried you are, there is nothing you can do.
First, he took out a 'Heavenly Crane Lingling Talisman' and replied a letter to Dou Wenlong. Then Zhuang Wudao popped out more than a dozen small red arrows one by one, in all directions, covering the surrounding area of thousands of miles.
He didn't know where Zhuang Xiaohu was at this time, so he could only use this stupid method to find traces of Zhuang Xiaohu. All he could do after that was wait.
Feeling uneasy, Zhuang Wudao returned to the Banyue Building and practiced the body-building boxing frame of Niu Mo Yuan Ba Ti. He channeled Qi and blood and opened up blockages. He continued to practice step by step as before.
Gradually, he stopped thinking about Nie Xianling. His only advantage was that he could always remain calm and composed in every big event.
Then, it was until the morning of the next day that there was finally news about Zhuang Xiaohu.
"Two thousand seven hundred miles northeast of Xuanling Mountain?"
To the northeast is the outskirts of the Tiannan Forest Sea. Twenty-seven hundred miles away, there should be a fairly prosperous market, Zhenhaiji, beyond the forest sea.
It is also one of the markets under the jurisdiction of the Lichen Sect. It is the gathering place for casual cultivators in the south. There are tens of thousands of people just practicing Qi. Purchase various precious materials from the disciples of the Lichen Sect, or wait to become Lichen.
An opportunity for the spiritual servant of the Chen Sect’s foundation disciple.
However, it is also the most chaotic place. Because there are too many monks on the move, the Lichen Sect has not put much thought into the control of this place. Therefore, it is okay to be in Linhaiji. Outside Linhaiji, people are killing people, stealing things, and robbing people.
, are everywhere.
As long as there is no evidence for someone to get caught, the Lichen Sect will not care about it.
Without much hesitation, Zhuang Wudao took the Tongyin conch in his hand with just a thought. He tapped lightly with his fingers, and as the spiritual patterns on the Tongyin conch appeared and disappeared without a trace, there was also a sound coming from inside.
Zhuang Xiaohu’s surprised voice
"Master, are you out of seclusion? Thank God"
"What's going on?"
Zhuang Wudao raised his eyebrows, aware of the hidden meaning of relief in Zhuang Xiaohu's words.
"Where is Nie Xianling now? She is still fine."
"The situation is not good. Miao Xianling should have been restrained by others. She is in a branch of Haitao Pavilion in Linhaiji. There are seven Foundation Establishment monks there alone. The slaves do not dare to get too close. They can only
"Peep into the sky and the shadow ring, and see from a distance."
When talking about this, Zhuang Xiaohu hesitated slightly and said: "Besides, there is another person, it seems to be Juechen Peak Li Yu——"
Li Yu of Juechen Peak is one of the five super spiritual roots of Lichen Sect, and one of the two rising stars in Lichen in recent years. She has been in Lichen Sect for several months, and her reputation can be said to be like thunder.
"Juechen Peak Li Yu?"
Zhuang Wudao's eyes were cold. He had indeed guessed correctly. Something had happened to Nie Xianling. Could he be considered a crow's mouth?
Wei Wei is also a little surprised that Li Yu appears in Haitao Pavilion at this time. Is it a coincidence, or is he also involved in this matter?
And where did Haitao Pavilion get the courage to capture his spiritual slave for no reason?
Even if Nie Xianling is the daughter of the master of Haitao Pavilion, without his permission, no one from Haitao Pavilion can even think of touching Nie Xianling, otherwise it would be provoking the Lichen Sect.
"Wait for me there and see how they are doing. Contact me at any time."
After saying this, Zhuang Wudao stood up directly and escaped from the Banyue Building. Using the magnetic escape method, he escaped directly towards Xuanling Mountain.
No matter what kind of plan the Haitao Pavilion has or what its intentions are, he will not be stupid enough to take responsibility for himself. The role of the master is here, which can provide him with protection and solve his own problems.
There is nothing you can do about it, it is difficult.
However, when Zhuang Wudao arrived at the top of Xuanling Mountain, he discovered that Master Jiefa was not at the top of the mountain. Not only was Master Jiefa not there, but also Senior Brother Yun Lingyue, who was stationed in Xuanling Mountain and was in charge of all the chores in Xuanling Mountain, was also there.
Not here.
Zhuang Wudao was secretly surprised, and directly stopped a Taoist boy under Master Jiefa to ask, and then only listened to the Taoist boy's frightened reply: "Three days ago, Master Taoist Master issued an edict to summon all the spirits and gold in the sect.
Brother Dan, together we have decided on the candidates to take over the monasteries of the various countries in Dongli. Not only Master Jiefa and Uncle Yun went to Lichen Mountain. Even nearly thirty Jindan from Xuanling Mountain also went there.
return."
"In other words, my senior brothers and sisters are not in their cave at this time?"
"It's natural"
The Taoist boy looked confused, but he still answered respectfully: "Several uncles and uncles have gone with Zhenren Jiefa."
"Then the other two mountains and seven peaks, such as Mingcui Peak and Juechen Peak, are the same?"
"I don't know much about this"
The Taoist boy said in an uncertain tone: "But I heard from people that the ninety-seven Jindan elders of Lichen Mountain had different opinions about the position arrangement and had been arguing in the main hall for several days.
"
Then he raised his head and asked, "Uncle, are you looking for the real person? I estimate that I only need to wait three more days for the real person to return."
"I'm fine"
Zhuang Wudao waved his hand, signaling the Taoist boy to step back, and then looked uncertainly into the distance.
He knew that the great victory over Soochow had forced the Yishan Sect to give up the entire territory of the Five Kingdoms. There were two Taoist palaces, three Taoist schools, nearly two hundred schools, and seven other academies, and monks had not yet been assigned to go there.
take over.
In the eyes of those disciples in Ershan Qifeng who hope to have a good job and accumulate good deeds, this is undoubtedly a piece of fat.
In the past few months, Li Chen Sect from top to bottom has been watching with eager eyes.
"The timing is so clever, it coincides with the absence of Master Jiefa. This time Haitao Pavilion captures Xianling, I'm afraid the inside story is not simple——"
Yun'er's voice rang in his mind: "Sword Master, how are you going to deal with it? Are you going to abandon Nie Xianling? But it's a pity. This woman is a super-grade three-series woman, and she has a soulless body, even in the world of immortals.
, the qualifications are also top-notch.”
"I really want to abandon her, but I'm just afraid that this matter will involve Ming Cuifeng. When the time comes, I'm afraid that even if I want to be alone, I won't be able to do it. Furthermore, if I really have no power to save her, I'll just stand by and watch.
How should Li Chen and his subordinates view me?"
Zhuang Wudao could avoid the battle in the Mountain Trial Competition. He could also ignore the repeated fights between several people in Gai Qian City.
However, the only thing he cannot do is leave an impression of being ruthless and unrighteous in the eyes of his fellow disciples. If he cannot even protect his own spiritual slave, how will others view him?
Zhuang Wudao's ambition is not to be powerful, but he never wants to be a loner.
He also never believed that his opponent had planned so carefully to target only Nie Xianling.
Unless the person in charge of Haitao Pavilion is so idiotic as to think that as long as he captures Nie Xianling, he can take her away from the Lichen Sect without incident.
And if someone was really hiding behind the scenes and intervening in this matter, they would not be stupid enough to think that by capturing a Nie Xianling, they could coerce him.
What is the use of the life of a spiritual slave? Even if this woman was the beloved daughter of the former master of Haitao Pavilion, it is the same.
What Zhuang Wudao is best at is saving others with himself. If it were him, after capturing Nie Xianling, various methods would surely follow, forcing him to a desperate situation step by step.
Since he is his spiritual slave, he will be both prosperous and devastated. If something happens to Nie Xianling, how can he, the master, get away with it so easily?
"Are you preparing to save? The sword master is still soft-hearted after all, but as you expected, there is some conspiracy. Then the opponent's plan must not be completed yet. Sword master, you still have a chance."
"So instead of reacting passively, it's better to take the initiative——"
Zhuang Wudao clenched his fist fiercely. He never believed that Haitao Pavilion would dare to attack Nie Xianling without a fight.
Maybe he had a tacit understanding with the people within the Lichen Sect, so he dared to be so bold.
Maybe Yun'er mentioned to him that Wei Feng had murderous intentions towards him, so Zhuang Wudao would instinctively contact Ming Cuifeng for any clues.
"But since they dare to take action, they must be fully confident. I'm afraid they will have no choice but to decide on you, the sword master."
"Are you sure? No matter what the arrangements are, since I have taken the 'Hell Rotten Demonic Ginseng,' even if that person is 100% sure, it will be reduced to less than 10%."
After taking a deep breath, Zhuang Wudao raised the corner of his lips coldly: "I think they may have made the wrong calculation."
So what if he can't ask Jie Fa for help? Does the person behind Haitao Pavilion and Ming Cuifeng really think he can defeat him?
The only thing he was worried about at this time was that the Golden elixir monk would personally intervene in this matter.
However, since there are ninety-seven Jindan elders present in Lichen Mountain, there is no need to worry too much. The total number of Jindan monks in Lichen Sect at this time is this number. In addition, those who are stationed outside all year round and cannot return,
There are one hundred and nineteen people in total.
The rule of the Lichen Sect is that all major matters will be decided by a vote of all the Golden Elixir monks after there is a disagreement between the real Yuanshen.
As for Xuanling Mountain, although Mingcuihuangjijuechen and other peaks jointly targeted it, Qiyang Peak also switched sides. But in the competition for positions, it is not at a disadvantage.
There are twenty-seven Jindan people in Xuanling Mountain and fourteen Jindan people in Cuiyun Mountain. The two mountains combined account for nearly half of the Jindan monks.
The other seven peaks are not monolithic, there are always some conflicts, and there is also a lot of resentment and dissatisfaction between the main branches and branches. After being combined vertically and horizontally, they can still compete head-on with the two peaks of Ming Cui Huang Ji.
Otherwise, Shanggong Hall would not be firmly in the hands of Xuanlingshan.
Especially recently, after experiencing the Battle of Soochow, Zhuang Wudao knew that Xuanling Mountain at this time had gained momentum.
This puts the Seven Peaks Alliance on the verge of collapse. At this time, Shuiyun Peak, the weakest, has already sided with Xuanling Mountain. There are also six golden elixirs who can make up for the losses caused by Qiyang Peak's defection.
This meeting directly determines the sphere of influence and strength of the two mountains and seven peaks in the five southeastern countries. Therefore, every golden elixir present is very important.
Zhuang Wudao didn't believe that Ming Cuifeng really dared to risk a complete defeat in the competition for the position and fall into the trap of others, so he sent Elder Jindan to intervene.
After all, this matter is shady. Once it fails, most of the people involved will be thrown out as abandoned children in order to appease the anger of the Xuanling Mountain lineage.
However, Zhuang Wudao cannot be sure about this. With Ming Cuifeng's style, he may not contact outsiders to take action against him. After all, with Wei Feng's ability, it can be said that it is easy to invite one or two golden elixirs from outside the sect.
.There is also the Haitao Pavilion. The Water Lake Fairy may not have a stable foundation and has not yet mobilized the power of the golden elixir monks in the Haitao Pavilion. However, if he is to seal the Wuyu Tiger Poison and Eat the Son, then he must not be careful.
Using the Tongyin Snail again, Zhuang Wudao asked straight to the point: "Zhuang Xiaohu, where is the Haitao Pavilion, are there any Golden elixir monks nearby?"
"Golden elixir? There is no such thing."
Nazhuang Xiaohu was puzzled for a while, and then reacted: "Even Ouyang Ruo, who was stationed in Linhaiji before, had to leave temporarily because of something. Linhaiji now has no golden elixir to guard it, and everything is in chaos. Within two days, there have been
