Dinglin Arhat looked at Qu Yuanwen, clasped his palms together, and spoke slowly.
Qu Yuan Wenyan said: "If it is true that the three of them are wronged, then being detained by Chang'an is the punishment they deserve. As for the academy, reputation and face, justice is not as important as justice."
When the Arhat in Dinglin heard this, he remained silent.
Qu Yuanwen glanced at him and continued: "No matter what the outcome is, regarding the matter of Manjushri's relics, the dean and I will work hard to help Buddhists find a middle ground and strive to exchange for Manjushri's relics from Chang'an. It may be difficult, but it is better than a bloody battle.
Be good."
"Qu Zi Gaoyi, the poor monk and other Buddhist disciples, can't thank you enough." Dinglin Luohan said: "It's just that Chang'an City may not be as reasonable as you expected."
Qu Yuanwen looked at Dinglin Arhat quietly.
The Kongshan Arhat on the side said at this time: "Since the rise of Guan Chang'an in this world, they have been constantly expanding in all directions, and Shunchang's rebellion has never changed. If things go on like this, one day they will occupy the entire eastern sky and even the wider universe. By then, Dou Shi
The Academy, I’m afraid, can’t be alone..."
Qu Yuan said in literary words: "If that day comes, neither I nor the entire academy will reject it. But now, if it is true that there are mistakes in the academy's teaching, the academy should deal with it fairly before talking about the future."
The Arhats in the Empty Mountain and the Arhats in the Dinglin fell silent.
At this time, in the void of the universe, there was a sudden flash of sword light, and then a Tai Chi diagram appeared next to everyone.
Tai Chi divides the two phenomena, and the two phenomena further divide the four phenomena.
The four images separated, the void changed, and a middle-aged Taoist priest appeared.
The visitor was wearing a Taoist robe, a three-foot-long beard, and an immortal Taoist spirit.
After Qu Yuanwen and others saw the middle-aged Taoist priest, they all greeted him: "Master Xiangyuan, you are well."
The person who came was none other than Master Xiangyuan, one of the most core members of the Taiyi Sect. In terms of cultivation strength and status, he was even higher than Master Shaoqing and the other four people.
"I've seen Qu Zi and the two masters."
Master Xiangyuan looked at the woman next to the three of them.
This woman is a Tian Yuan Bee transformed into a human form. She looks about thirty years old, not very beautiful in appearance, but has a well-mannered bearing.
"This is the disciple of the master of this place, Yuanping of the Tianyuanfeng clan." Kongshan Arhat introduced him to Master Xiangyuan.
Immortal Xiangyuan nodded in greeting, and then said to Qu Yuanwen: "Thanks to the intervention of Saint Lu and Ananda Bodhisattva, we were able to defeat Zhao Kuangming. I am grateful to everyone in our sect."
"You're welcome, Master." Qu Yuanwen asked, "How is the situation now?"
Master Xiangyuan replied: "Sage Lu is confronting Zhao Kuangming, and Bodhisattva is on the side to help suppress the formation. In this way, the whole sect has a chance to breathe. Master Xue and the others are currently recovering from their injuries and at the same time gathering the lost disciples of the sect, so for the time being only Pindao can come here."
Help.”
Qu Yuan said in Wenyan: "You can ask the two masters about the specific situation. I will take my leave now."
Master Xiangyuan was quite surprised: "Qu Zi, what is this?"
"Taiyi sect has suffered a great calamity, so I can't persuade you easily." Qu Yuan said in Wenyan: "However, there may be other truths about the rights and wrongs. I would like to ask you to think twice before you act."
After that, she said goodbye and left.
Master Xiangyuan was confused for a while.
After listening to Kongshan Arhat's brief introduction to the situation, his face suddenly darkened.
Taiyi Sect has basically found out recently that the conflict between them and Chang'an City was a completely unfounded disaster, which continued to escalate and finally got out of hand.
They have no real conflict with Chang'an City.
Master Duqing himself had no grudges with the people in Chang'an City in the past and now. He went to Chang'an simply to help his friend Mr. Fang Cun.
However, after arriving, the Four Symbols Creation Formation was lost, triggering a chain reaction. The Taiyi Gate was breached by Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming, resulting in heavy casualties.
Putting all the blame on Chang'an, to a certain extent, it must be an act of anger.
But it’s really difficult to say that they don’t want to do this at all.
At the end of the whole incident, Yue Fengling, the instigator, and Doushi Academy did not suffer any casualties, but it was their Taiyi Sect that was really injured.
If the fault is really on Yue Fengling, it would be even more cowardly...
Although I don't know why the Lu Sage made the final decision, Qu Yuanwen and the people from Doushi Academy are currently staying out of the matter, which also makes Master Xiang Yuan depressed.
And because it was Lu Shengren who blocked Zhao Kuangming and asked Taiyimen to turn the corner, they became even more entangled.
With Master Xiangyuan's strength and cultivation, there is still an evil fire of ignorance surging in his heart at this moment, and he doesn't know who to vent it to.
At this moment, the look he looked at Tianyuan Bee Yuanping and Yaogu World became a little unkind.
Kongshan Arhat sighed: "Master, please calm down. There is a Taoist heavenly king and two demon clan minor saints in this world. Master Li is even more powerful. He still has the advantage of the formation. We need to figure it out slowly."
.”
Thinking that if Qu Yuanwen hadn't given up his job temporarily, they wouldn't have to feel like a tiger biting the sky and had no place to bite. Even the Arhat on the Empty Mountain couldn't help but sigh.
Master Xiangyuan looked calm and quickly regained his composure.
He looked at Tian Yuan Feng Yuan Ping, who was staying quietly aside: "The layman is staying here, and he doesn't mind listening to our chat, but there are other important matters?"
The sights of Kongshan Arhat and Dinglin Arhat were also fixed on Yuan Ping.
They also noticed just now that Yuan Ping saw off Qu Yuanwen and did not leave after meeting with Master Xiang Yuan, and they couldn't help but be curious.
But no matter how they looked at it, the demon bee in human form in front of them was still at the thirteenth level, and there was nothing special about it.
"The real person and the two masters have sharp eyes. I do have something to discuss with the three of them."
Yuan Ping said: "I originally planned to have Qu Zi, but unfortunately she decided to leave. Fortunately, the real person arrived."
Kongshan Arhat secretly thought that if Master Xiangyuan hadn't come, he probably wouldn't have stayed to say these words.
"I would like to ask the three of you to help me uphold justice and give me a fair chance to compete with Lao Wang."
Since Yuan Ping opened his mouth, he simply got straight to the point: "In exchange, I am willing to help three people capture the visitors from the Yanhuang Realm."
"oh?"
Xiang Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up: "Can you challenge the old Queen Bee?"
Both Kongshan Arhat and Dinglin Arhat were surprised and caught something in their hearts.
From the perspective of the bee colony, Yuan Ping in front of him is obviously a worker bee.
Normally, the worker bees only serve the queen bee, and the queen bee follows her lead.
Generally speaking, the cultivation strength of the worker bees of the Tianyuan bee clan has an upper limit, and it is always lower than the queen bee level.
Only when the queen bee reaches a higher level can the many worker bees hope to work hard with their own talents and try to climb to a higher level.
There are three possibilities for giving birth to a new queen bee.
First, the queen bee gives birth to a certain larvae that is exceptionally gifted.
Secondly, after the old queen bee dies due to various reasons, a new queen bee will be automatically born in the worker bee colony.
The third and final possibility is that in extremely rare circumstances, a certain worker bee in the worker bee colony breaks through the natural population barriers while the queen bee is still there, and improves her cultivation strength to a level close to that of the queen bee, and then simultaneously
The old queen bees duel, and the winner becomes the queen bee of the colony.
The loser will be expelled from the swarm even if he does not die.
When the old queen leaves, she can only take away the drones that are willing to follow her, and the remaining worker bees will be loyal to the new queen.
If a new bee colony cannot be established as soon as possible, the old queen bee, lacking support from worker bees, will soon wither away.
As for the challenger, the moment she becomes a challenger, she is no longer a worker bee. After being expelled, she will suffer the same fate if she does not receive support.
"I don't dare to take that step directly if I don't have enough confidence."
Yuan Ping turned into a human form, with a calm expression: "With these three people here, I have the confidence to give it a try. Currently, I rely on secret methods to suppress my cultivation progress. As long as I loosen the restrictions, I can achieve the body of a demon saint in three seconds. No need.
Keep warm and stable. After all, I have been like this in recent years. In fact, I have been keeping warm."
This secret method of warm breeding is also part of the custom of the Tianyuan bee clan. The mutated worker bees will not be noticed in advance by the old queen bee.
As for what Yuan Ping said, Master Xiangyuan, Kongshan Arhat, and Dinglin Arhat could all hear that the other party's so-called confidence did not mean that he was confident of challenging the old Queen Bee.
What she was worried about was that her battle with the old queen bee might be influenced by others.
The best friend of the old queen bee, the Huanxia Butterfly King.
And, Mr. Taiqing.
Theoretically speaking, although the Huanxia Butterfly clan does not have similar customs and traditions, the Butterfly King may respect the rules of the Old Friend clan and not interfere.
Mr. Taiqing seems to be equally likely to stay out of the situation and let everything take its course.
But Yuanping didn't dare to gamble.
The result of failing the challenge is likely to be death.
"I just hope that I can have a fair chance." Yuan Ping said calmly.
