Among the warriors under Chu Xiu's command, there are actually only two people whom Chu Xiu is most optimistic about, one is Tang Ya and the other is Yan Bugui.
Although their strength is not the strongest, their potential is the greatest.
At this time, Tang Ya was still half-way to the unity of heaven and man, but the middle-aged Taoist who spoke before had already entered the realm of unity of nature and man.
But when Tang Ya's slash was almost in front of him, he suddenly reacted. His body twisted like a snake, and the gray death energy condensed in front of him into the shape of an evil ghost. But
But in an instant, he was torn apart by the sharp sword energy!
Relying on the death energy to resist him for a short moment, the middle-aged Taoist's figure was almost twisted into a twist, and he barely escaped Tang Ya's knife. But he touched his face, and his face
But it had been torn apart by the sharp sword energy, and a bloodstain appeared.
Chu Xiu glanced at Tang Ya in surprise. He did not expect that Tang Ya would have reached this stage.
It seems that Tang Ya knows a lot of things, such as Qinggong, melee combat, swordsmanship, etc., but the one he is most proficient in is probably hidden weapons.
In the past, Tang Ya once asked Chu Xiu for some advice on hidden weapons, and he also wanted to learn Li Feilian's method of cause and effect.
At that time, Chu Xiu only gave Tang Ya a few words of advice, telling him that the way of cause and effect cannot be taught, and that he also had the direction of his future martial arts.
However, Chu Xiu didn't expect that Tang Ya would progress so quickly. In just a few months, Tang Ya had already reduced the complexity to the complexity, turning his densely packed and complicated hidden weapons into the current sword with extreme speed and power.
Taoist Wushang slammed the table and shouted angrily: "Chu Xiu! What do your subordinates mean by this? Do you have any rules in this martial arts hall anymore if you do it openly?"
Chu Xiu knocked on the table and said coldly: "If Zhenwu Hall has rules, why did your disciple interrupt just now? When you and I are talking, does he have the qualifications to interrupt?"
In the palace before, both Taoist Wushang and Chu Xiu were restrained, and both sides could still pretend to be polite.
But now, once the conflict breaks out, neither side will save face for the other.
Chu Xiu said coldly: "Taoist Wushang, I know your identity. If your Yinshan sect insists on coming to trouble my Yinmo lineage, then fine, I will continue.
If you only want to obtain the status of a state religion, then I advise you to cooperate with me honestly.
If the Zhenwu Hall develops well, it will be good for both you and me. If it does not develop well, at worst, I will continue to go back to Guanzhong to hang out, and your Yinshan Sect will not even have a foothold.
The state religion of the Eastern Qi is True Martial Arts. You should know what impression your Yinshan Sect has in the eyes of orthodox Taoist warriors.
As for the Yue Worshiping Sect in Xi Chu, you should give it a try and see if the Moon Worshiping Sect can tolerate you!
Your Majesty has already said that you and I are both internal and external, you do your thing and I do mine without interfering with each other.
If you insist on chirping here and meddling in my affairs, I want to see who is the unlucky one in the end!"
The Yinshan sect collectively defected to the Beiyan court. Chu Xiu could probably guess why. It was just for a place to gain a foothold.
The Hidden Demon lineage does not need such a place, and Chu Xiu has already contacted Zhongxingtang, and he does not need it either. If there is a real quarrel, he would like to see who has suffered the greater loss.
Taoist Wushang looked at Chu Xiu with a hint of coldness in his eyes, but then he snorted coldly and said: "Okay! Just follow what you said, you are external and I am internal. If your people cross the line, then
Don’t blame me for being rude!"
After saying that, Taoist Wushang turned around and left without further arguing with Chu Xiu about the date of opening the mansion.
After walking out of the hall, the middle-aged Taoist priest who was almost severely wounded by Tang Ya said angrily: "Master, that Chu Xiu is too arrogant and arrogant in his actions. I have been waiting for Beiyan to lay out the plan for so long, and he showed off as soon as he came.
He looks like he wants to be the master of the country, so why..."
Before he could finish his words, Taoist Wushang slapped him in the face.
"Who asked you to speak without authorization just now?" Taoist Wushang looked at the disciple coldly.
The middle-aged Taoist priest covered his face and argued aggrievedly: "Master, I was looking at Chu Xiu..."
"Crack!"
Another slap came over: "Let me ask you, who asked you to speak just now!"
This time the middle-aged man didn't dare to say anything more, he just covered his face and lowered his head.
Taoist Wushang said coldly: "How many times have I warned you that since you have joined the imperial court now, you must do things according to the imperial court's rules. Originally, I wanted to deal with that Chu Xiu, but when you interrupted like this, the two sides broke up.
It’s shameless, that’s nonsense! When will you stop being so reckless?”
The middle-aged Taoist covered his face and gritted his teeth and said: "Master, I understand that I was wrong, but this time your Majesty did what you did is really unfair.
Our Yinshan faction has been loyal to His Majesty for several years, and how many things have we done for His Majesty?
In the end, even though His Majesty promised to establish the Zhenwu Hall and confer our Yinshan sect as the state religion, he still brought Chu Xiu here, which obviously means he doesn’t trust us!"
Taoist Wushang said coldly: "Trust? If your Majesty can trust me so easily, he will no longer be a great leader of Beiyan.
Zhenwu Hall is such an important position, if he only lets me manage it, even if I, the Yinshan Sect, really have no other thoughts, there will always be problems.
Chu Xiu showed up at the right time, even if there was no Chu Xiu, there would be someone else."
Chu Xiu thought that Xiang Long sent Taoist Wushang to check and balance him, but now Taoist Wushang thought that Xiang Long did this to check and balance him.
Xiang Long's power tactics are so sophisticated that at least neither Chu Xiu nor Wushan Taoist can truly cooperate closely.
Mei Qinglian sat next to Chu Xiu, raised her eyebrows and said: "These guys from the Yinshan Sect changed their minds and left so quickly?
Chu Xiu said calmly: "What can we do if we don't leave? The Zhenwu Hall had a falling out before it even opened. It would make everyone lose face. The only difference is that they suffered greater losses.
The Yinshan sect has been extinct for so many years. It can be imagined that their life is not easy. They finally found a suitable place like Beiyan, and they will not give up easily.
Ignore them for the time being, as I said before, we do our thing and they do theirs without interfering with each other. If someone crosses the line, whichever hand he extends, he will chop off that hand!"
Without the interference of Taoist Wushang, Chu Xiu directly determined the date of opening the mansion, and set it three days later.
At the same time, he also sent out a large number of invitations, inviting people from the entire Beiyan Wulin to come and watch the ceremony.
As soon as this invitation was sent out, the entire Beiyan Wulin fell into an uproar.
Chu Xiu is back!
In the past, in the Beiyan Alliance, the only one that really suffered huge losses was Juyizhuang.
At that time, Chu Xiu only came to destroy the Beiyan Alliance and did not have the strength to massacre the entire Beiyan Alliance.
Therefore, the forces involved in the alliance at that time were not worried about what would happen to Chu Xiu. Even if Chu Xiu survived this disaster, he would definitely choose to keep a low profile and stabilize his current strength.
Who would have thought that in the end, Xiang Long recruited Chu Xiu as the Commander-in-Chief of Zhenwu Hall? Listen to this name, Zhenwu Hall, Zhenwu Hall, who is this aimed at?
In a villa at the junction of Beiyan and East-West, this is where the main hall of the Juling Gang is located.
Fang Datong held the invitation sent by Chu Xiu with a frown.
Below him are some warriors in the realm of unity between man and nature, all of whom are high-ranking members of the Giant Spirit Gang.
At this time, an old man said sadly: "What did I say? We, the Giant Spirit Gang, shouldn't have gotten involved in those messy things at the beginning. Now it's fine. That Chu Xiu actually returned to Beiyan, and even talked to Beiyan
The imperial court cooperates. If Chu Xiu comes to deal with our Giant Spirit Gang, what can our Giant Spirit Gang do? Now that the post has been sent, should we go or not?"
Fang Datong glanced at him coldly and said: "Feng Tianyi, are you blaming me? Don't I think about the giant spirit?"
Feng Tianyi's strength is not weak. He has reached the half-step level of unity between man and nature. He is the great elder of the Giant Spirit Gang. His seniority is even higher than Fang Datong, so he often talks about some matters concerning the Giant Spirit Gang.
When he raised objections, he relied on his seniority and did not pay attention to the majesty of Fang Datong, the leader of the gang.
Feng Tianyi snorted coldly: "I didn't say that, but you are the leader of the gang, and the future of tens of thousands of members of our Giant Spirit Gang is in your hands. It doesn't matter if you make a mistake in one decision, but it will cause consequences."
The century-old foundation of our giant spirit gang has been destroyed in one fell swoop!”
Seeing that the smell of gunpowder between the two sides was getting stronger and stronger, a middle-aged warrior wearing brocade clothes and a square appearance immediately stood up to smooth things over and said: "The gang leader is also thinking about my giant spirit gang. Who knew that the emperor would cooperate with that Chu Xiu, knowing that
He is from the hidden demon lineage, but he is still allowed to be in charge of the Zhenwu Hall.
Xiang Long's doing this is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger. I think he is old and confused, and a wise master is about to become a coward.
And look at the name he gave, Zhenwu Zhenwu, doesn’t it mean to suppress our Beiyan Wulin? Even without Chu Xiu, someone else would probably be in charge of this Zhenwu Hall.”
This middle-aged man is named Shen Feiying, and he is the deputy leader of the Giant Spirit Gang. He is also Fang Datong's sworn brother and his number one confidant.
Feng Tianyi's main reason for dissatisfaction with Fang Datong was his nepotism.
He was a senior elder and had no idea about the position of deputy gang leader, but he was dissatisfied that Fang Datong promoted his sworn brother to deputy gang leader as soon as he came to power.
Feng Tianyi said with a cold face: "Okay, okay, what you said makes sense, so when the Zhenwu Hall is opened, should we go or not?"
Fang Datong snorted coldly: "Where are you going? Don't you understand what Chu Xiu means? He is here to establish his authority!
Tell the entire Beiyan Wulin that Chu Xiu is back!
Don’t worry, the Zhenwu Hall is targeting the entire Beiyan martial arts world. Once Chu Xiu dares to take action on a large scale, the other orthodox sects of Beiyan will not sit idly by and ignore him.”
The rivers and lakes and the imperial court have always been in conflict with each other. A fight among the rivers and lakes requires multiple responses, let alone the imperial court.
If the imperial court punishes someone without teaching him and does such an egregious thing, it will definitely arouse the hostility of the entire world and make the matter completely worse.
