Chapter 493: Return your sword and seize the orthodoxy
The long sword was unsheathed, and the solitary smoke rose.
The first beacon fire was lit in Longtu City, which was the importance the city defenders paid to an immortal god.
Under the setting sun.
Black smoke billowed, and everything was covered in the pale golden glow of the sunset, making it extremely beautiful.
Tiehu held a solemn and solemn official seal in each hand, walked to the leading soldier and presented it.
"My lord is the governor of Qingshui County and the supervisor of the dynasty. Now he is passing through Guibao and taking the road to Jiangdu City."
The patrolling generals have extraordinary cultivation and possess the realm of earth witchcraft, which demonstrates the rich heritage of Longtu City.
He hadn't understood what Tiehu said before, but he only heard that the group was going to Jiangdu City. He immediately frowned and threw away the two official seals.
"Jiangdu City has been under martial law for a long time. No one is allowed to go there without the court's order! Do you have two legal decrees and three public edicts?"
Tiehu was knocked back by the two official seals thrown at him, his eyes narrowed, and he realized something was wrong.
They walked from the outer circle to the inner circle, so it was obviously impossible for them to have the imperial decree in hand.
This.
He believed that the generals guarding the city knew it all too well.
Tiehu put away his official seal, stepped forward again, and handed over a white jade bottle, which contained ten life elixirs worth a thousand years of life.
"This soldier, my Lord, respects Tie Tang and is famous in the world. Can you be accommodating?"
As the saying goes, soldiers against soldiers, against generals.
In Tiehu’s opinion.
As Tie Tang's confidant, my first priority is to help Tie Tang get things done. It's okay if I feel a little wronged. It's even more normal to pay a little life to open up the joints.
There is no need for both parties to make the matter a big deal, and some minor troubles should be resolved as much as possible. Only in this way can he show his iron tiger ability.
If Tie Tang had to take action personally if something trivial happened, what use would he have?
Perhaps it was Tiehu's humble attitude, or the effect of the thousand years of longevity, but the leading soldiers finally lost their impatience and closed their eyes in deep thought.
"Let me think about it...Qingshui City Sheriff...Tie Tang..."
This behavior was seen by Tie Tang, Feng Chengdao and others thousands of feet away, and the conversation between the two parties was clear and clear.
"Master, these guys don't have to drink wine as a penalty for toasting. I will come back as soon as I leave." Feng Chengdao couldn't bear it anymore.
He defended Qingshui City for ten years and killed countless great monsters, ghost soldiers, and even immortals in the immortal realm. Killing immortals was like killing chickens, how can you bear this bird's anger?
Especially when he saw Tie Hu being beaten back with an official seal, he had long wanted to take action.
Tie Tang waved his hand: "After all, we are one of our own, so you have to be measured in your actions."
Feng Chengdao has a bad temper, and Tie Tang himself is not a submissive person.
Two official seals are enough to prove one's identity, and they are still doing it. Obviously the other party has his own agenda.
After Feng Chengdao left, Guixian, who had been imprisoned by the Xinghai Demon Moon Wheel, suddenly said: "Master Tie, these officers and soldiers don't even pretend to know your name. I'm afraid they mistook us for the fleeing human race.
I have seen similar scenes before.
Some local cities were unwilling to accept outsiders, so they used various methods to frustrate and persuade them to drive away.
The world is in such chaos now, and the credit of these traitors is indispensable."
Tie Long immediately stepped forward and gave him a slap on the head: "Shut up, you traitor, you have fallen into our hands, are you still stirring up trouble?"
The ghost immortal was imprisoned and could not resist, so he lowered his head, his expression was gloomy, and his eyebrows were filled with malice.
But in the next breath, he raised his head again and said with great grievance: "Sir, what I told is the truth. There are quite a few people like this."
Tie Tang didn't answer because there was already a dispute ahead.
The general thought for a long time and finally asked something that made Tiehu extremely embarrassed.
"Chief of Qingshui County? Didn't he die a long time ago? There has been no news for ten years. Did you steal these two official seals from somewhere?"
Just at this time.
Feng Chengdao is coming.
He locked the general's neck and kicked with his right foot until the general fell to his knees.
"Are you worthy of speaking nonsense about my master? Let the person who makes the decision speak!"
Take action.
The nature is different.
The remaining generals immediately lit a second beacon fire, red and green smoke spiraled up, and immediately a line of sergeants came on the clouds with a black unicorn.
"Let go immediately, otherwise you will be blind!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The three Dzogchen shaman gods led a group of black unicorns to arrive first and scolded Feng Chengdao.
"Huh? Is it you?"
Feng Chengdao was extremely surprised. He didn't expect to see an 'acquaintance' here.
This person is an elder of the Wu family, named Wu Boyuan.
There is a grudge between the Wu family and Feng Chengdao. He found out that Brother Dan and another friend died in the Wu family.
In order to investigate the secret behind the scenes, he also teamed up with Tie Tang to block the gate of the Wu family.
When the door was blocked, there was an elder in the Wu family who was in the witch-god realm and bullied the younger one and forcibly attacked him.
However, things changed later, and Tietang went into seclusion again. He guarded Qingshui City for ten years, never leaving, and there was no chance.
I didn’t want to meet you here today. You can see the mystery of fate and the mystery of cause and effect.
Wu Boyuan didn't remember Feng Chengdao for a long time, and he didn't recognize him after looking at him for a while: "You know me, little friend?
In this case, you might as well give me some thin noodles and let my nephew go first, so that everything can be easily discussed."
"He is your nephew? Isn't the Wu family in Jiangdu City? Why did he come to Longtu City?" Feng Chengdao didn't think too much and threw his generals back.
But this time.
Wu Boyuan's face suddenly turned ferocious, and he could not reply to his words. He waved his hand: "All generals, listen to the order and capture these refugees for me, but if there is resistance, I will kill them without mercy!"
"Ha~ ten years have passed and you still have the same virtue."
Feng Chengdao laughed with his arms akimbo, not caring at all.
"Ten years ago, I said that when you get to the Heavenly Witch Realm, Gao Luo will give you a sword, and today... I will return it to you!"
He shook his right hand, and the storage ring flew out with a gleam of cold light. It was not a peerless magic weapon, but an eighth-level witch weapon he occasionally collected, the Chixia Sword!
Boom! Boom!
Dark clouds are gathering in the sky, lightning is thundering, arrays of black unicorns, and the three Dzogchen shaman gods, but against a celestial shaman, anyone will feel that they are easy to catch.
In a trance.
But in front of me, I saw the light of the sword like a dragon, turning into the shadow of thousands of divine swords. Five majestic sacred mountains appeared, and five imperial figures wearing crowns each wielded vertical and horizontal sword energy to sweep across the four directions.
Feng Chengdao never speaks lies.
He only used one sword from beginning to end, and this sword was his special skill when he was a killer, the Five Emperors Sky Sword.
A killer kills with just one sword.
But today is different from the past. Feng Chengdao kept Tie Tang's words in mind and finally retained his hand.
Chi la~
The swords swayed in the sky, and the Five Emperors' sword energy spurted out as thin as the clouds, forcing many soldiers away. The five sword energies sealed the sky and the earth, blocking all Wu Boyuan's retreat routes.
Boom!
It's like a roaring mountain and a tsunami.
Wu Boyuan's physical body was directly annihilated, and his soul escaped, his expression full of horror.
"You...who are you?"
Such a big change, before the soldiers could light the beacon, the gods in the city noticed it and immediately came to the battlefield.
When Wu Boyuan saw this man, his face was filled with joy, and then he said sadly: "Ancestor, kill this man quickly, he has destroyed my body that has been cultivated for thousands of years!"
"Wu Jianxian, are you here too?" Feng Chengdao recognized this person at a glance.
"Is it you? How come you are here?"
Wu Jianxian flew down, his appearance was the same as before, but his expression had subtle changes.
He felt every trace of life and death crisis from the person in the Heavenly Witch Realm in front of him.
I am in the Hedao realm, and ten or a hundred Heavenly Witch realms, combined, are no match for me.
What is going on?
"My master is going to cross Longtu and go to Jiangdu City. You have no reason to stop a court governor, let alone an inspector from passing through the world!"
Feng Chengdao threw out two official seals, and the shadow of Pixiu floated in the sky, roaring with anger, and the sound shook the whole country.
"Your master..."
Wu Jianxian saw the official seals of the county guard and the supervisor at the same time, and a figure immediately appeared in his mind.
He was extremely surprised, not pretending to be a fake: "Tie Tang is still alive?"
Wow!
Blossoming golden lotuses and flying flowers gather together like dreamy bubbles, forming a green-robed figure.
"Senior Sword Immortal, of course I'm not dead yet. Speaking of which...did you still miss me by a million yuan in life?"
"Master!" Feng Chengdao cupped his hands and immediately stepped back.
Wu Jianxian's divine eyes swept back and forth in an extremely complicated manner. After finally seeing clearly Tie Tang's cultivation level, he was shocked and speechless for a long time.
Back then, the two of them had a bet, and the prize was a million years of life. Just when Tie Tang summoned the river of time and was about to use a trick to suppress the situation, it was Feng Bingyao who sent a message, telling him to stop.
If that palm had been struck, it would have been absolutely impossible to block it with the strength of Wu Jianxian, the incarnation of the witchcraft realm at that time. He would have been dead, and he would have lost millions of life spans.
Tie Tang's mention now is just a joke to a familiar old friend.
Just...
How can Wu Jianxian have any intention of joking now?
His deep black pupils reflected Tie Tang's figure, sensing the somewhat immature aura of the fairy over and over again.
"You...have become an immortal?"
Tie Tang laughed: "I am the top, isn't it only a matter of time?"
"Too fast, too fast..." Wu Jianxian still found it difficult to accept.
At this time, the nearby soldiers were neither fighting nor moving, and their eyes were focused on Wu Boyuan Yuan Shen.
Wu Bo has reached this point, why doesn't he understand what role he has offended?
He wasn't pretending to be stupid before, but he really thought Tie Tang was dead.
But if this person is not dead...
The current situation, which is already turbulent, may become even more turbulent.
For a person like him, no one would dare to hold him accountable even if he was beaten to death casually. Even within his own family, it would be impossible for him to offend Tie Tang for his own sake.
The second on the life and death list is still the second on the life and death list for becoming an immortal...
The way of the world.
It's going to change.
Wu Boyuan ignored his soul and knelt down, begging for mercy, and awakened the shocked Wu Jianxian.
"Chief Iron, my nephew is naughty..."
Tie Tang glanced at it and didn't take it to heart at all: "He has been punished as he deserves. Why don't you invite me into the city for a cup of wine?"
"I almost forgot, please, please, everyone, please, this ghost fairy is..."
"I caught him on the road. He's a traitor who knows how to cause trouble. Let's see if I can ask you anything."
"The magistrate's power!"
"Senior Miao praised the sword of the Sword Immortal back then, and Tie Mou has been recalling it for a long time..."
……
In Longtu City, the Wu Family Guest Hall.
Tie Tang and others sat around a table with Wu Jianxian and had a brief chat.
He has no serious grudges against Wu Jianxian, and because of Feng Bingyao, the two sides are not mortal enemies.
Take this opportunity.
Tie Tang also named everything he saw when he sneaked into the Wu family that day, seeking an explanation for his disciple.
After becoming an immortal, he already understood cause and effect.
He was polite when it was time to be polite, and he didn't hesitate even when it came to settling the score.
"Senior Sword Immortal, the death of my disciple Faxiao was caused by someone from your martial arts family. You are no longer my opponent.
In a few decades, the entire Wu family will not be my disciple’s opponent.
There are some causes and effects, and it would be better to settle them as soon as possible, so as not to damage the harmony between us."
Such straightforward words made the eyes of the Wu family around them jump wildly and their anger surged, but Wu Jianxian remained unmoved.
He knows.
Since Tie Tang dares to speak, he is telling the truth.
Ranked second on the life and death list, I have the confidence.
"I don't know, Commander Tie, that Wu Huajun would have been stabbed to death if I had caught him. The reason why my Wu family came to Longtu City from Jiangdu City is because of this son."
Wu Jianxian slowly revealed the main culprit in the murder case.
It turns out that Wu Huajun colluded with the cult and escaped from the Wu family as early as the beginning of the turmoil. Before leaving, he also took away many of the Wu family's treasures.
The collusion between the Wu family and the evil cult was exposed, and the court would naturally avoid liquidation.
However, the marriage between the Wu family and the Yu family, with the Yu family dealing with it, and finally ending up evacuating Jiangdu City, is already an excellent situation.
"I see... He had indeed colluded with the cult back then, so I won't bother seniors!"
Tie Tang stood up and wanted to leave.
Wu Jianxian's expression was complicated, as if he was thinking about everything, but finally he reached out and stopped Tie Tang.
"Iron Commander, wait!"
He called all the servants away, leaving only Tie Tang alone in the hall. He repeatedly imposed restrictions before speaking slowly.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"Chief Tie is a dragon among men, and he has taken off now. I am thinking of the Wu family, and for Feng Qianjin's sake, can I ask Wu to give me a favor?"
This thing of favor...
Sometimes you can’t just send it if you want to, but you have to see whether others will accept it.
Just like this situation.
Even if Wu Jianxian wants to befriend Tie Tang, he has to show off Feng Bingyao's face in order to succeed.
"Senior, you might as well tell me." After Tie Tang became an immortal, he understood cause and effect, and began to have the bad habits of other immortals.
Hate karma!
Immortals and gods do not ride freely on cranes, nor do they have the freedom they imagine. Instead, they are bound by cause and effect at every turn.
Every move, word and deed may lead to the power of cause and effect.
These dense and intertwined lines of cause and effect may never happen, or they may one day bring about catastrophe.
No one knows which causal line will explode when.
Maybe you won’t find out until the moment you die.
Today's calamity is just because I spat when I passed by, just because I killed an ant by practicing magic, and just because I helped someone once in a certain year.
Immortals and gods don’t like to be tainted with cause and effect, that’s it.
Just as Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva asked Tie Tang to take action that day, and then immediately returned the result, Tie Tang ignored any of his requests.
Tie Tang did not agree rashly, it was also a subconscious risk avoidance move.
However, Wu Jianxian seemed to have gotten an opportunity and immediately said it like he was pouring beans.
"It's best for Governor Iron not to go to Jiangdu City, especially with so many civilians. I'm afraid they won't even be able to enter the city gate, and there will be a dispute.
Although you have become an immortal, Jiangdu City is not as good as my dragon figure. There are several immortal gods and overlords. Even if you are covered in iron, how many moves can you withstand in the hands of the master?"
"You'll have to... fight to find out!" Tie Tang replied seriously, leaving Wu Jianxian speechless for a while.
"According to senior's opinion, could it be that there are many forces in Jiangdu City now? Could it be that the Lord of Feng Mansion has been sidelined? What about the imperial court?"
Wu Jianxian sighed: "I'm afraid Jiangdu City already knows the news about your arrival in Longtu City.
I don’t know what the response will be from above, but your appearance...may break the current deadlock.
That is definitely not a fairyland. The underworld is happy to see it, and even other human overlords with ulterior motives may not like to see you.
The only person you can rely on in Jiangdu City is Lord Feng. The forces of the Supervisory Palace have withdrawn, so you'd better not go."
"What do you mean? A crossword puzzle person, right? Then I'm leaving!" Tie Tang stood up immediately, not wanting to continue listening to Wu Jian Xian Shen Shen's chatter.
"Yu family!"
"At least 40 to 50 percent of those who control the power in Jiangdu City are members of the Yu family, and maybe more. But the Yu family... doesn't seem to listen to the imperial court's orders!"
"Second Officer Tie, my Wu family also has its own intelligence network. After the First World War, we also searched for clues about you.
As far as Wu knows...
There seems to be a huge hatred between you and the Yu family.
Both sides are eager to get rid of it quickly.
If you go to Jiangdu City now, you will be like a moth rushing to a flame, seeking your own death!"
Tie Tang stopped and turned around slowly, his eyes shining brightly.
"Oh?"
"Aren't you afraid that the Yu family will cause trouble for you when you tell me this?"
"What's more... considering the relationship between your Wu family and Yu family, it's hard for me to believe what you are saying. This may also be a trap set by the Yu family and you.
Isn’t it?”
Wu Jianxian smiled bitterly, with a sincere expression, and looked directly into Tie Tang's eyes.
"Wu Mou is just looking for a new way out for the Wu family. The Wu family is not the Yu family, not the Fang family, nor the family of princes. There is no first-class official in the family, and there is no iron governor who suppresses the people of an era.
Unparalleled genius.
We... can only go with the flow and care about our own life and death. Please ask Iron Commander for a clear lesson!"
Tie Tang pondered for a moment and slowly shook his head: "Not enough! There are too few clues. If there are only these, I can only pull you in once."
Wu Jianxian immediately said: "Palace Master Feng was seriously injured, and many of his direct officials chose to take sides again. And because of Palace Master Feng... Miss Feng was also implicated.
Sheriff Tie should know that Miss Feng got a great opportunity from nowhere and actually created a new side sect.
Nowadays, many people, including some immortal gods and overlords, are eyeing her and want to seize her orthodoxy."
"Seize the orthodoxy?"
"Is there such a thing? Even I don't know. From which unofficial history did you read the fake information?"
As the pioneer of the orthodox path in the future, Tie Tang has never heard that orthodoxy can be taken away by others.
Including his interactions with Pan Xuan, Yuan Geng, Mo Xinxiang and others in the Tiandao Monument, no one has ever mentioned similar deeds.
Speaking of this, Wu Jianxian also seemed a little hesitant. It seemed that he was not sure. After all, he was not the founder of Taoism.
"Wu Mou heard it but never saw it. Ever since Miss Feng returned to Jiangdu City, there have been rumors circulating in the city.
It is said that although she opened up a side sect of Taoism, because she did not become an immortal, the Taoism was not stable, just like a human emperor who ascended the throne at a young age, and the power of the great treasure is not in his hands.
If we find the right opportunity...anyone can take his place and become the new emperor!"
