"He took charge of such a large family at such a young age. In just ten years, he calmed down the civil strife and established a dominant position in the north. It seems that Xia Jie is also a heroic figure."
Qin Tian finally came to a conclusion.
"Yes." Tie Ying whispered: "Not only is his own ability outstanding, this Xia Jie is also very good at winning people's hearts."
"Over the years, everyone from the Xia family to the experts recruited from outside have been loyal to him."
"In the Xia family, the five most powerful people are also Xia Jie's support and are called the five elders. They are Jin Ming, Mouton, Shui Yao, Huo Yan, and Tu Zha."
"Three of these five people were killed by you, the head of the family -"
Hearing this, Qin Tian corrected Tie Ying: "To be precise, I only killed one water demon."
"Huo Yan and Tu Zha can obviously survive. They were silenced by Tong An, who was pretending to be Xia Ming."
"Tong An was acting in Xia Ming's stead, so these two people were equally dead at the hands of Xia Ming."
Tie Ying breathed a sigh of relief and his expression became solemn.
"This is enough to show that Xia Ming and Xia Jie are not on good terms as father and son. At the same time, it proves from the side that Shui Yao and others are loyal to Xia Jie."
"Xia Ming must have tried to win over them over the years. Only when the win-over failed, he would ruthlessly silence them."
"But that doesn't matter anymore. The three of them are dead anyway. Having a few fewer opponents is a good thing for us."
"But, the two most difficult people to deal with, the head of the family, have not shown up yet. They are Jin Ming and Mouton."
"Master, look behind you, there is information about the two of them."
Qin Tian slid his hand on the tablet, and a picture of another person appeared in front of him.
It was secretly photographed from the side. Although he was sitting on a futon, he looked very tall and tall, wearing a bright red cassock.
Viewed from the side, his face is long and has a hooked nose. He seems to be smiling, giving him a sinister feeling.
"The head of the five elders is a great tantric monk. It is said that he had already entered the master realm twenty years ago. He is now unfathomable."
"One thing can be proved. In the Xia family, many people know one thing. Although Shui Yao, Huo Yan and Tu Zha are also the fifth elders, their relationship with Jin Ming is almost that of both teachers and friends."
"In other words, many of the skills of the three of them were passed down from Jin Ming."
The disciples he taught casually were all masters and masters ranked among the fifth elders. You can imagine how powerful this tantric monk must be.
Tongchuan couldn't help but clicked his tongue, and said with some embarrassment: "I am not afraid of anything, but I don't know why, just seeing the side face of this great monk, I feel a little scared."
"If I'm not ashamed, I think none of us can be his opponent. We can only leave it to Brother Tian."
Several other people also nodded in agreement.
Qin Tian deeply imprinted the appearance of this tantric master named Jin Ming in his mind. He flipped through it and another photo appeared below.
Contrary to Jin Ming's ferocious look, this man named Mouton looks to be in his fifties, wearing a green Taoist robe and a wooden sword hanging from his waist. He has a somewhat immortal look.
Tie Ying explained from the side: "Mutong, also known as Taoist Mu. He was originally a wandering Taoist priest, but he was recruited by Xia Jie for some reason. Although he is ranked below Jin Ming, he is superb in the swordsmanship of returning wind."
"There are rumors that he can cross the river with a wooden sword, but I don't know if it's true."
"But, it's just not easy to deal with."
Qin Tian looked at Zhui Feng and said, "What do you think? Are you sure?"
Among masters, sometimes there is no need to actually do anything, or even meet. Just by looking at the photos, you can infer the level of the other person's realm from the charm of the other person.
At the same time, you will have a vague concept in your mind as to whether you can beat it or not. This is a very mysterious thing that only true masters can have.
