Taoist Master Tianfeng's words made everyone stunned, and then the atmosphere became even more tense. Everyone stared at Taoist Shang with hatred.
Now it was Shang Jidao's turn to be confused. He looked at Tianfeng: "Brother, what do you mean?!"
Tianfengyan said with certainty: "You all still remember how that monster fell from the sky. The sling is not a conventional weapon. Who in our Jianghu sect can make such artifacts on weekdays? It must be the Jinyiwei who supplies it to Huashan!"
Although the rivers and lakes and the temples are distinct, the Jin Yiwei will never attack the Jianghu sect without any reason, but providing support in other aspects besides manpower is not included in this list. Intelligence, weapons, and occasionally acting as a troublemaker, you can't even deny business to others.
do it?
Tianfeng's words made everyone look at Huashan with even more hatred.
"Stop talking nonsense! Today I will kill the traitors for the Five Mountains Sword Sect!"
Tian Feng roared angrily and raised his sword. Shang Jidao had no choice but to draw his sword to defend.
Shang Jidao couldn't figure it out no matter what, why Tianfeng wanted to take action against him. There were obviously a lot of strange things about this matter. If he thought about it carefully, there were actually quite a few loopholes. Why was he so impatient to take action?
In fact, what Shang Jidao thought, Tianfeng also thought about, and not only thought about it, he even roughly deduced in his heart that someone should deliberately frame Huashan this time. As for whether it has anything to do with Jin Yiwei, he couldn't say
It is speculated that catapults are indeed weapons of war, but in the end they are craftsmen's skills. It is not impossible for them to make them if they want to.
The reason why the name of Jin Yiwei was called out to add guilt to Huashan was just to build momentum.
Tianfeng saw Huashan's innocence, and also saw the plan behind the chess game. Although the man blamed Huashan for all the crimes, he did not do it perfectly. As long as everyone is willing to temporarily suppress their hatred and investigate carefully, the clues
There will always be.
But the premise is that each faction can suppress this hatred.
If the Jianghu people don't take revenge for the night, since the murderer is coming, they naturally need an explanation. It is absolutely impossible to send them away with just a few words.
Tianfeng, on the other hand, thought deeper and further. He took the lead in assigning the crime to Huashan. It was not a decision made out of anger, but a decision made after thinking about it in advance.
Now that it has been determined that Huashan is not the murderer, regardless of whether the real murderer can be brought to justice, the most realistic thing is that the strength of the other four sects in the Five Mountains has been almost halved. The Huashan sect has kept a low profile for many years, and its strength is the best preserved. Now it is even more distant.
Surpassing all four of them.
In this way, once it is confirmed that the real culprit is someone else, Huashan's strength can no longer be suppressed. Just like the Hengshan Sect back then, as long as they fight steadily and find out the mistakes, they will naturally become the next leader of the Five Mountains Alliance.
This is neither alarmist nor fanciful, but an unavoidable fact.
The Wuyue Sword Sect's strength was greatly damaged after this disaster. The cultivation of disciples does not happen overnight. If you want to maintain your influence and avoid becoming a second-rate sect, then the only way to go is to merge with the sect.
Huashan's strength is unparalleled. Regardless of whether it is willing or not, at this time, the Huashan faction can only be recommended as the leader of the Five Mountains Alliance. This is something Tianfeng is absolutely unwilling to do.
If Hengshan faction could not be allowed to take the lead, he would rather not have the leader of the Five Sacred Mountains than let other factions take this position.
So taking action against Shang Jidao at this moment is almost the only option.
"Shang Jidao, suffer death!"
Tian Feng held the Mu Yu Sword in his hand, and wielded the sword with countless phantom blades. The sword light was scattered in all directions, and the ghosts were so strange that Shang Jidao was overwhelmed.
The next moment, Tianfeng slashed out from behind Shang Jidao with a sword. This phantom blade hanging edge was his signature sword skill. Hengshan's sword technique was fast and cunning, and this sword perfectly blended the two.
Shang Jidao bent down sideways and faced it with a sword. At the same time, he held the finger of the sword in his left hand and pointed it at the palm of Tianfeng's flying light. The two looked at each other and both saw what the other was thinking. They couldn't help but
He secretly cursed something sinister.
After a brief confrontation, the two immediately retreated. Tianfeng simply jumped into the air and slashed out with a sword that blocked the sun. The sword fell like raindrops. Shang Jidao was not in a hurry and walked calmly under the rain of swords.
After performing three postures with the sword in his right hand, he switched the sword to his left hand and slashed three times in a row.
Tianfeng looked heavy: "You actually learned the left-handed sword technique?"
"You have too many skills to overwhelm your body, senior brother, be careful."
Shang Jidao's eyes narrowed, he slowly raised the sword in his hand, pointed it directly at Taoist Tianfeng, and uttered one word: "Cut."
As these harsh and cold words were spoken, a tangible and intangible sword shadow suddenly flashed in mid-air, like a volcano that had been boiling for a long time suddenly erupting, sputtering and dancing, shocking and powerful.
Shang Jidao stepped forward, and the sword in his hand swept through thousands of lights. The light of the sword dimmed for only a moment. Tianfeng was shocked to realize that the long sword was approaching his throat, with an overwhelming force.
Destroy the Thirteen Swords!
The concept of Huashan's most powerful swordsmanship immediately came to Tianfeng's mind. He did not dare to be rude, and tried his best to block it with the sword in his hand. When the metal and stone met, the strong wind scattered and shattered the doors and windows of the hall.
Taking advantage of the terrifying force exerted by the sword, Tianfeng took a few steps back and scored twice with the Phantom Blade's hanging edge. The strange sword light turned into a phantom formation that filled Shang Jidao's sight, hiding his opponent's figure.
.
However, Shang Jidao took a deep breath and slashed his second sword into the empty space in front of him. The terrifying sword rose into the sky. The illusory formation actually seemed so small in front of it, like dead leaves falling in the whirlpool.
The uncontrollable tossing and tumbling, turning and falling, was actually broken like this.
Tianfeng, who was hiding in the illusion formation, was greatly surprised. Just as he was about to draw his sword, Shang Jidao's third sword had already fallen. In an instant, a violent hurricane suddenly arose, and among the strong currents of true energy, only the bright sword light was like thunder.
It flashes uncertainly, and it seems to be like a dragon leaping into the sea with its teeth and claws.
At this time, the onlookers could no longer watch. Shi Jiuning and Hao Bansheng flew in. The former's sword danced like a wheel, and the sword energy turned into a garden wall and unfolded. The latter held the sword in both hands and raised it high, majestically.
Then he slashed down, attacking and defending with two swords, forcing Shang Jidao back.
Seeing the iron sword in Ye Ming's hand slowly unsheathing, Shang Jidao's expression darkened, he jumped out of the window without hesitation and ran straight down the mountain. Several people were shocked. Tianfeng reacted quickly and walked along the other side.
track to catch up.
"Chase! Don't let him escape!"
For a time, most of the Jianghu guests followed closely, and some people stayed in the main hall, looking at the confused Huashan disciples, not knowing how to deal with them. One person wanted to take action to restrain them first, but was suddenly struck by a sword.
The light blocked the way.
"stop!"
Gu Qianhan's steps were light and she swayed into the palace. She danced with the sword in her hand and drew a deep ravine on the ground in front of the guests. It was full of warning. Everyone saw that her martial arts was so strong that it was difficult to succeed, so they temporarily gave up their thoughts.
...
At the same time, in Mucheng, the city closest to Huashan, the sky is cloudless and the day is clear, but every household has its doors and windows closed. There is not a single hawker on the street. Occasionally, you can see people who are not afraid of trouble sticking their heads out in the corners of the streets.
Come and have a look.
On the main road in front of the city gate, knights with horses and swords lay like a black dragon. It stretched for several streets with almost no end. The three people at the front of the team were Ying Wushang, Zeng Hong and Yan Feng.
Master Qianhu, Bian Guang, and Cui Yixiao, two deputies of Qianhu, were separated and escorted beside a silver-topped carriage. I saw that the soap-colored canopy of the carriage was made of precious materials, and the agarwood-colored wood was decorated with rare and exotic animals.
Bian Guang got off his horse, bowed in front of the carriage, and said respectfully: "Sir, everything is ready, please give me your orders."
Lu Hanjiang chuckled from the carriage: "Let's go and meet our Huashan friends."
