"Three people died accidentally while patrolling the mountain?"
Early in the morning, Hu Qianzhong received information about the casualties of his disciples, which made him frown deeply.
After pacing back and forth in the Taishan Hall for a while, Hu Qianzhong asked again: "Are there any clues or similarities in the death conditions of these disciples?"
The confidant below thought for a while and said: "Reporting to the leader, these three people all had their throats sealed with a sword. Their expressions were horrified when they died, as if they had seen something terrible."
"Sword wound."
Hu Qianzhong stared thoughtfully, and suddenly said coldly: "Is it possible that Hao Bansheng's madness has been cured? He is back?!"
At the end of the sentence, Hu Qianzhong felt a little uneasy in his heart. His tone seemed to be deliberately hiding something, revealing a bit of sternness and ridicule.
After hearing this, Elder Feng sneered and said: "Master, please rest assured, even if Hao Bansheng is not crazy, he will not use such ungraceful means to retaliate. He will come in from the door to settle the score with you."
Elder Feng's words made Hu Qianzhong glare angrily, and also made his face heat up. This was because he was frightened by the sudden chaos, otherwise he thought carefully and knew that it couldn't have been done by Hao Bansheng.
Elder Wei looked at the tense atmosphere between the two, and stood up helplessly and said: "Master, Elder Feng, in the face of foreign enemies, if we are still waging war with words, aren't we giving outsiders an advantage in vain?"
Hu Qianzhong and Elder Feng looked at each other. In the end, the stubborn old man chose to give in for the sake of justice. He snorted coldly and quickly left the hall.
The cronies below also bravely retreated. At this moment, only Hu Qianzhong and Elder Wei were left in the palace.
After a moment of silence, Hu Qianzhong asked: "How does Elder Wei view this matter?"
Elder Wei stroked his beard and said in a deep voice: "There are many people in the Hengshan sect who can't stand me in the world, but there are only a few who would come directly to seek revenge. The deaths of these three people were so sudden and unusual that it reminded me of something.
past."
Hu Qianzhong looked suspicious. He remained silent and motioned for the other party to continue speaking.
Elder Wei paused and said slowly: "The leader still remembers that more than a year ago, there was a person who caused trouble around the Hengshan sect and killed the leader of Tianfeng in a frenzied manner."
"The elder is saying, Sword Demon!" Hu Qianzhong took a deep breath after hearing this, and his expression became increasingly serious.
Indeed, the strange situation on Mount Tai this time was exactly the same as what happened on Mount Heng. Moreover, the sword demon was only seriously injured by the wind and did not die. It is not unusual for him to make a comeback.
After Elder Wei's suggestion, Hu Qianzhong was already roughly convinced that the person who was secretly targeting them this time was probably this lingering sword demon.
Now Hu Qianzhong really had a headache. The sword demon was highly skilled in martial arts and had an unknown amount of hatred towards Hengshan, so he actually pursued him to the land of Mount Tai.
To make matters worse, Elder Wei had even worse news to report at this moment, and he said: "Master, since the news of the murder of three people spread this morning, some bad news is spreading among the disciples.
"
Hu Qianzhong said irritably: "Is there anything else?"
Elder Wei said with a frown on his face: "Master, these three people died strangely. Some disciples didn't know why. They thought it was Taishan's dead disciples who turned into ghosts and came to seek their lives."
"Taishan disciples asking for their lives? Ridiculous!"
Hu Qianzhong cursed angrily, now even if the murderer was not the Sword Demon, he would have to put the blame on the other person.
There is no other way. Rather than letting an illusory theory of ghosts and gods constantly undermine his morale in Hengshan, it is better to arrange for a real person to come out, at least not to let these disciples scare themselves.
"Master--master, it's not good!"
Just when Hu Qianzhong was worried, another person with no eyes hurriedly broke into the hall.
"What's going on!" Hu Qianzhong firmly held the Mu Yu Sword at his waist and asked with a manic expression.
The disciple panicked and almost bumped into Elder Wei. After being helped by the other party, he managed to calm down and said nervously: "Master, it's not good! The Xuantian Sect is coming!"
"How can it be!"
Hu Qianzhong and Elder Wei were both shocked. According to their calculations, it would be at least a few months before the Xuantian Sect could prepare enough good men to go south.
It had only been less than half a month. Even if all the righteous people along the way were on the sidelines, it was impossible for the Hengshan Sect not to receive any news. How did the Xuantian Sect cover up the mystery and reach the foot of Mount Tai so quickly?
Before Hu Qianzhong could ask, the disciple cleared up his doubts and said, "Reporting to the leader, there are only two people from the Xuantian Sect this time!"
"two?!"
Hu Qianzhong was angry and angry. This Xuantian Sect looked down upon people. He immediately said to Elder Wei beside him: "Huh, this demon of Xuantian Sect is really desperate. Please summon the disciples to follow me down the mountain."
, capture and kill these two madmen immediately."
"yes!"
Elder Wei also had a face filled with righteous indignation. After he responded, he immediately went out and began to gather his disciples.
The predictions of Hu Qianzhong and others were not wrong. If the Xuantian Sect went south in a big way, there would be no news at all. There were many people from the righteous sects who wanted to see their jokes, but they were not so ridiculous that they would really sit back and watch the destruction of the Five Mountains Sword Sect.
Degree.
So the people who came to Mount Tai to call for battle this time were naturally Qian Xiaoxiao and Li Yan.
After the sniping attacks by various righteous knights in the past few days, the masters of the Xuantian Sect who followed Bai Yichen down south were basically all killed or injured. The only ones who could still kill them now were Qian Xiaoxiao and Li Yan, who were the best in martial arts.
Although Hu Qianzhong was furious at the two men's Zhang Kuang, he did not underestimate his opponents. Even if there were only two opponents, he called on the two elders to fight the enemy together.
But soon Hu Qianzhong's anger turned into fear. Leaving aside Li Yan for the moment, this little martial arts far exceeded everyone's expectations in the Hengshan Sect.
I saw my opponent holding a secret death palm in his hand. He was almost killing a god when he blocked it, and a Buddha when he blocked it. If Mount Tai hadn't been steep and difficult to defend and difficult to attack, I'm afraid that in just half a day, Hu Qianzhong's leadership of the Five Mountains Alliance would have been over.
.
More than a dozen disciples were killed or injured, but Hu Qianzhong finally held on to the attack by relying on the terrain of Mount Tai. It was only after Qian Xiaoxiao found it difficult to advance and chose to retreat on his own initiative that he managed to save his life in embarrassment.
"Damn it! Damn it!"
Hu Qianzhong returned to the main hall with disheveled clothes and smashed them to vent his anger and fear.
"What kind of grudge does that demon girl have against me, Hengshan, and why does she have trouble with us?" Hu Qianzhong cursed in a low voice.
In today's battle, Hu Qianzhong and the two elders joined forces to attack, but there was nothing they could do with Qian Xiaoxiao. Instead, the opponent found the right opportunity and killed and injured more than a dozen disciples. At this time, all their dignity was lost.
And this was without Li Yan taking action. If these two guys from the Xuantian Sect were to fight together, Hu Qianzhong couldn't even imagine how brutal today's battle would be.
He thought he was catching a turtle in a jar, but the current situation did not go beyond his expectation. But the funny thing is that now he has become the bastard in the jar with no way to escape.
