Seeing Qin Sheng also die in Gu Cheng's hands, Xu Wangyuan and others felt a little embarrassed.
They were the ones who nominally joined forces to besiege the Yuan Chen faction, but the result was good now. Both Lu Bingzhong and Qin Sheng were captured by Gu Cheng, especially since they had subconsciously dodged just now.
Xu Wangyuan coughed and looked around. He saw Gu Cheng's men arranging formations and other things. He changed the topic and asked doubtfully: "Master Gu, who are you guarding against by arranging these formations? The Yuanchen sect has already
If it is destroyed, even if the Nie Yang Mansion has a sect that is close to the Yuan Chen Sect, they will not dare to continue taking action."
Gu Cheng grinned: "Of course we are on guard against Xuanwu Zhenzong. Are you sure you haven't heard about what happened between Lu Bingzhong and Yan Shaokuan, the leader of Xuanwu Zhenzong?"
The old guy Lu Bingzhong can be said to be very cautious, so when Gu Cheng made the move, he had already expected that Xu Xiao, who had a business relationship with him, and Xuanwu Zhenzong, who had a human relationship with him, would also take action.
Xu Xiao's side has been successfully infiltrated by Xiao Yi and used as an undercover agent. He is currently guarding the bottom of the mountain. If Gu Cheng's offensive is blocked, Xiao Yi's side may even directly switch sides.
However, Xuanwu Zhenzong still needs Gu Cheng to resist it. Of course, Gu Cheng is also confident because Yan Shaokuan will not take action.
Regarding Yan Shaokuan, Gu Cheng had actually collected some information about him when he left Donglin County.
At that time, Gu Cheng killed Governor Hong and offended Bai Ziwei, which was equivalent to offending Xuanwu Zhenzong, so he naturally wanted to find some information about the other party to understand him, just in case.
In Gu Cheng's opinion, Yan Shaokuan is a very calm person, even calmer than Lu Bingzhong. He can be said to be a standard disciple trained by a large sect like Xuanwu Zhenzong.
His talent is not amazing, but he is outstanding. He rose to prominence when he was young, became the mainstay of the sect in his prime, stepped into the realm of master in middle age, and took over the sect. Everything can be said to have come naturally.
Yan Shaokuan seems to have had no troubles in his life. Although he is a master-level existence, he does not have many amazing achievements. Even outside Donglin County, the outside world has only heard of Xuanwu Zhenzong but does not know Yan Shaokuan.
But it is such a person who is calm enough and will think twice about anything he does.
The human relationship between Lu Bingzhong and Yan Shaokuan is actually watery, because Lu Bingzhong is a pseudo-guru and a qigong practitioner. What kind of advice does he give to Yan Shaokuan?
Therefore, in Gu Cheng's view, the so-called guidance between Lu Bingzhong and Yan Shaokuan was actually more like an investment in reputation.
Lu Bingzhong, who is considered to be a master by the outside world, said to Yan Shaokuan that I am very optimistic about you, which is equivalent to getting the approval of a master. This naturally makes his fight for the position of sect leader smoother.
It's the icing on the cake.
But this kind of icing on the cake cannot last long, so over the years Lu Bingzhong rarely asked Xuanwu Zhenzong, just to preserve this favor.
It's just that this favor will not make Yan Shaokuan use all his strength. The other party Dingtian will send deacons or elders from the sect to come and forcefully repel Gu Cheng with the power of Xuanwu Zhenzong. Xuanwu Zhenzong can be regarded as the best in this matter
Made a statement.
Of course, Xuanwu Zhenzong would not have thought that no matter who they sent, it would be too late, and that the Grand Master Lu Bingzhong would be killed by Gu Cheng before he could hold on for even a day.
At this time, when the people around heard Gu Cheng mention Xuanwu Zhenzong, their expressions suddenly changed.
Compared with the Yuanchen sect, Xuanwu Zhenzong dominates Donglin County, which is obviously an existence they do not want to face.
Seeing everyone's appearance, Gu Cheng did not make things difficult for them, but said calmly: "Everyone just retreat, I will resist the Xuanwu Zhen Sect.
You don’t have to worry that the Xuanwu Zhen Sect will retaliate against you. The law does not punish everyone. The Xuanwu Zhen Sect also wants to have a good reputation. They will not force you all to a dead end just for the sake of a destroyed Yuan Chen Sect."
Hearing what Gu Cheng said, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief and said goodbye directly.
Of course, in their eyes at this time, Gu Cheng was probably no different from a lunatic.
Facing the Yuanchen faction, Gu Cheng had preparations and plans, so he still had the possibility of winning, but facing the Xuanwu Zhenzong, what could he do to stop him?
Just when Gu Cheng was attacking the Yuanchen sect, Lu Bingzhong had already asked people to use secret methods to contact the Xuanwu Zhenzong, and the Xuanwu Zhenzong also received the news.
Bai Ziwei was banned by Yan Shaokuan, so she could only wander back and forth in the mountain gate of Xuanwu Zhenzong.
Moreover, once this woman has a bad temper, it is easy to anger other people. Countless Xuanwu Zhenzong disciples have already been unlucky. Yan Shaokuan is not willing to mess with Bai Ziwei for them anymore, so they can only endure it. They usually see
Bai Ziwei hid and walked away.
At that moment, a disciple hurriedly walked towards the mountain gate. When Bai Ziwei saw the other disciple, she immediately raised her eyebrows and shouted coldly: "Stop!"
When the disciple saw it was Bai Ziwei, he couldn't help but have a bitter look on his face, secretly thinking that he was unlucky, how could he meet such a crazy woman?
"I met my uncle."
"What is that in your hand? What are you doing?"
The disciple took out a paper crane that shone with evil aura and said: "The news came from the Yuanchen sect in Nieyang Mansion, saying that the local Jingyesi commander Gu Cheng sent people to attack the Yuanchen sect, so
His ancestor, Lu Bingzhong, came to ask for help from our Xuanwu Zhenzong."
Hearing the word "Gu Cheng", Bai Ziwei's eyes suddenly glowed with a strange light.
Seizing the paper crane, Bai Ziwei snorted coldly: "Okay, I understand. I will personally deliver this news to my senior brother."
Hearing what Bai Ziwei said, the disciple did not dare to say anything and immediately retreated.
He is just a low-level disciple responsible for communicating, how dare he disobey someone like Bai Ziwei?
But Bai Ziwei, who got the paper crane over there, did not go to Yan Shaokuan, but went straight down the mountain from another direction.
Seeing Bai Ziwei about to go down the mountain, the gatekeeper disciple immediately stopped in front of him and said with a smile: "Uncle Master, the sect master has said that you are strictly prohibited from going down the mountain, so please don't embarrass us?"
Bai Ziwei threw the paper crane at the opponent and cursed angrily: "Open your dog eyes and see what this is!
Yuan Chen of Nieyang Prefecture sent Patriarch Lu Bingzhong to ask for help, and it was my senior brother who asked me to go and support him.
Senior brother owed Lu Bingzhong a favor back then, and if he didn't repay it now, he would definitely be criticized.
If you waste time, stop guarding the mountain gate and go guard the hut!"
Hearing what Bai Ziwei said, and that the paper crane did bear the characteristics of the Yuanchen sect, several people did not dare to stop them and quickly moved out of the way.
If this really happens, their future will be ruined.
After leaving Xuanwu Zhenzong, Bai Ziwei rushed towards Nie Yang's Mansion with murderous intent and a sneer on her face.
"Gu Cheng! No matter how big your backer is today, I will let you die without a burial place!"
Once a woman becomes crazy, she will not care about anything. This is the case with Bai Ziwei now. Even if Gu Cheng is the illegitimate son of Emperor Daqian, she will definitely kill him!
At this time, Yan Shaokuan was meditating on the top of the sect's mountain. The sunshine was just right today, which actually gave Yan Shaokuan a peaceful and ethereal feeling.
Perhaps it is because he is getting older and the time he spends meditating in concentration is getting longer and longer, but the time for intensive ascetic practice as before when he was young is getting less and less.
With a good mood in mind, Yan Shaokuan walked down the top of the mountain. He looked around and found that Bai Ziwei was not here. He couldn't help but murmured to himself with some doubts: "Could it be that junior sister has looked away and is not going to continue making trouble? "
Ever since he last ordered Bai Ziwei to be placed in confinement so that she could not leave the mountain gate, Bai Ziwei had been causing trouble. She would wander around the mountain gate when she had nothing to do, looking for trouble for various disciples, which gave him a headache.
At this time, Yan Shaokuan found that there was no noisy voice of Bai Ziwei here, and Yan Shaokuan still felt a little uncomfortable.
At this time, an elder passing by said in surprise: "Sect Master, isn't it the Yuanchen sect you sent Elder Bai to?"
Yan Shaokuan frowned: "When did I send her to the Yuanchen Sect? Besides, why did I send her to the Yuanchen Sect?"
The elder said: "My disciple is responsible for guarding the mountain gate this month. When I passed by the mountain gate just now, my disciple told me that the Yuanchen sect was being besieged by Gu Cheng, the commander-in-chief of the Jingyesi Division of Nieyang Mansion, so Lu Bingzhong personally wrote a letter Ask for help.
It was you who asked Elder Bai to go to Nieyang Mansion to support Yuan Chen Faction, why, don’t you know about this?”
At this moment, Yan Shaokuan felt as if something was broken. The tranquility of the years just now was completely broken. Bai Ziwei's behavior made him furious. The veins on his face popped out, and his face turned red, as if it was about to burst. generally.
"This crazy woman! What on earth does she want to do!? Does she have to drag me, Xuanwu Zhenzong, to be buried with her!?"
The elder quickly asked: "What should we do now? Go after Elder Bai and come back?"
Yan Shaokuan smiled bitterly and said, "How long has she been gone?"
"It's been half a day."
Yan Shaokuan sighed and said: "I've been walking for so long and I can't catch up, so I'll just leave it to fate.
Regardless of the consequences, our Xuanwu Zhen Sect is in trouble anyway."
If Bai Ziwei went to kill Gu Cheng, then based on his speculation, Gu Cheng must have some background.
If Gu Cheng is dead, at least the Xuanwu Zhenzong will spend a large sum of money to silence Xie Anzhi and let the greedy guy suppress this matter completely.
More importantly, the backer behind Gu Cheng is going to cause trouble for his Xuanwu Zhenzong, and his Xuanwu Zhenzong may have to pay a higher price to deal with it.
As for whether something would happen to Bai Ziwei, Yan Shaokuan had never thought about it.
In his opinion, Lu Bingzhong asked him for help because he was old and weak and did not want to fight against Gu Cheng, so he asked for help from Xuanwu Zhenzong.
How could an old grandmaster and a sixth-grade peak Bai Ziwei be killed by Gu Cheng?
