Is he going to take this opportunity to attack Senior Sister Jianchou from Yashan, whom he has long disliked
Or is it because he wanted to get back at the person who plotted against Xinmi back then
Or is it just to scare them
No, no, no, I wouldn't dare agree to him no matter what.
The Kunwu elders standing behind Master Hengxu were the first to object: "Although the Sword Emperor is extremely powerful, he is the host of the Star Sea after all. It doesn't seem right to abandon the affairs here and participate in the plan to destroy the Snow Region first, right?"
"Yeah, how can we let the Sword Emperor go?"
When everyone heard this, they were afraid that something might go wrong on this important issue, so they all agreed.
Only Zhenren Hengxu himself, Xie Buchen who was involved, the people from Yashan and several monks from the Zen sect remained strangely silent and did not express any opinions at the first time.
Of course, Jianchou didn't say anything either.
As early as when Zhenren Hengxu said that they had to eliminate the Tantric Buddhism first, she had guessed that she would be on this trip, but she did not expect that Qu Zhengfeng would also propose to go.
No matter how powerful the Snowland Tantric Buddhism is, it is just a larger sect. On the one hand, it suffers from serious internal friction, and on the other hand, it has suffered a huge loss of strength due to the split of the Old Tantric Buddhism. Even if it still has two Dharma Kings, it is not to be feared, not to mention the help of the Zen Buddhism and the Old Tantric Buddhism. No matter how you look at it, it should be enough.
Even if we can't say it's foolproof, it's pretty close.
But it was intriguing that Qu Zhengfeng, the high and mighty Sword King of Tomorrow's Star Sea, suddenly said this and wanted to interfere.
Listening to the rebuttals from everyone, Qu Zhengfeng's expression did not change at all. He just looked at Master Hengxu and asked with a smile, "What do you think, Master?"
Zhenren Hengxu has his own concerns.
A few days ago, after using all sorts of tricks, Xie Buchen finally survived the Dao Tribulation of the Heart. He is not far from the "Kunwu Centennial Tribulation" predicted by the Zhoutian Star Array. Xie Buchen is the Taoist son shown by heaven who can save Kunwu from disaster, a person who will replace him and turn the tide one day.
In any case, he didn't dare to let Xie Buchen take risks again.
Therefore, when asked by Qu Zhengfeng at this moment, he did not refute, and said to everyone's surprise: "Little friend Qu is willing to contribute to the upcoming restart of the Yin-Yang Realm War. Naturally, we have no objection. In the current situation, Little friend Qu has a lot of ideas and I think he can handle it clearly. If you can participate in the raid on the Snow Region, it will be more secure, which is great. I, Kunwu, have no objection."
Xie Buchen frowned unconsciously.
Monk Yichen from the Zen sect first glanced at Xie Buchen, then at Qu Zhengfeng, and then he also smiled and said, "That's good. I've heard that His Majesty the Sword Emperor has reached the highest level of cultivation. The Sword Emperor's help in the raid on the Snow Region will be even more powerful. I, the Zen sect, have no objection."
That leaves Yashan.
The Fudaoshan man who was sitting with his legs crossed and gnawing on a chicken leg looked at Hengxu, then at Yichen. When he raised his head, he found that everyone was looking at him, so he started shouting.
"They have no objections, so why are you looking at the mountain people? Of course the mountain people cannot have any objections!"
Well, the pot was pushed away just like that.
Fudaoshanren's statement was not actually his own statement. It sounded like "They have already agreed, and there is nothing I can do if I don't agree." He completely ignored himself and did not reveal his attitude towards Qu Zhengfeng.
When everyone heard this, they cursed in their hearts.
But since the big guys had no objection to this matter, it was naturally settled. After all, as the elders of Yashan, Renfudaoshan had no objection, so even if they had an objection, they could only keep it to themselves.
The one who felt the most uncomfortable was Elder Kunwu, who had expressed opposition at the beginning.
He was stunned when he heard that his own abbot had no objection. Then he heard that the Zen monk Yichen also had no objection. He became even more dumbfounded. When he heard the nonchalant words of Fudaoshanren, he almost suffocated!
After all, no one expected that several people would agree so easily!
Even Jianchou felt a little stunned.
Qu Zhengfeng must be full of hostility towards Kunwu in his heart. He is also the current ruler of the Tomorrow Star Sea. It is absolutely "unwise" for him to leave the Star Sea and go to the distant Snow Region when such a big event happens.
Unless he has a reason to go.
Moreover, Jianchou couldn't help but glance at his own chicken leg master who was leisurely and not at all panicked, and found that he was really not in a hurry at all, and the doubts in his heart became even greater.
Her intuition told her that things were not that simple.
But there were so many people present now, and even if he had any doubts, it would be difficult to ask now, so Jianchou remained silent.
Qu Zhengfeng seemed to have expected this result. He raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Since everyone has no objection, then it's settled. Daoist friend Jianchou of Yashan, Daoist friend Yangjin of Jiumi, Daoist friend of Xihai Zen Sect, and Qu. I think that now that there are frequent movements at the Ghost Gate of Dongji, it is better to leave for the Snow Region to destroy Xinmi first as soon as possible. The longer the night, the more dreams there are. If we delay, there may be changes. We should set off on a chosen day after the discussion, right?"
"That's right." Master Hengxu thought for a moment, then said, "Now we are just gathered in Xinghai to discuss matters, but in recent years, rumors of war with the Jiyu Territory have been everywhere, and many sects have made their own preparations. So each party will dispatch troops and horses later, and go to the Snow Territory with you, and strive to complete the victory in one battle."
Everyone knows that this battle cannot be taken lightly.
When the candidates were being discussed earlier, no one felt much of it, but when Master Hengxu said "accomplish everything in one battle", the oppressive, suffocating tension and solemnity gradually spread throughout the Lanyue Hall.
Everyone's mind became heavy.
Only Fu Chaosheng, after listening to the discussions of these people just now, couldn't help but frowned quietly. Under his eyes, which seemed to be truly innocent of the worldly ways but yet hid the vicissitudes of time, there was a hint of subtle doubt and discomfort.
Especially when looking at Qu Zhengfeng.
He didn't understand. He was Jianchou's friend, and he had said a long time ago that he came here only because of Jianchou. Why didn't he even mention going to the Snow Region
The powerful monks sitting on both sides of the chairman's desk have begun to discuss the strength of the only two remaining Dharma Kings in the Snow Region, as well as the various details after entering the Snow Region.
The more Fu Chaosheng listened, the more uncomfortable he felt.
He was standing next to Jianchou, so he moved closer and asked in a low voice, "Old friend, what about me?"
The great demon born from heaven and earth has an evil aura bestowed by heaven and earth in its breath, which is powerful and cold. Its pale face can also make people feel fearful from the bottom of their hearts.
Jianchou was listening to people's discussion when he unexpectedly came closer.
Hearing this incoherent sentence "What about me", she even reacted and looked back at Fu Chaosheng, then she realized what he was referring to and burst out laughing.
So he thought about it, and although his eyes were still on the monk Yichen who was speaking in the field, he moved his head towards Fu Chaosheng and whispered something in his ear.
Fu Chaosheng looked at her immediately.
But Jianchou only said this one sentence and that was it. The figure that had just moved forward also moved back, as if it had not moved at all.
Such a scene happened in a corner and no one should have noticed it.
But all those present were cultivators. Even if they did not disperse their spiritual awareness, their five senses were far superior to those of ordinary people. Not to mention that when Fu Chaosheng asked that question just now, he did not use telepathy, so almost everyone in the hall heard it.
What everyone didn't hear was Jianchou's answer.
Not to mention, there were people standing in the hall in just the right position, so he could see their every move just by raising his eyes.
Xie Buchen put one hand on his waist and the other behind his back.
On the surface, no one could see any clues, but when Jianchou approached Fu Chaosheng just now, the hand behind his back had quietly clenched.
The gesture was extremely measured and did not appear intimate, but it was easy to see that it was an unguarded trust.
The trust that appears in Jianchou.
Xie Buchen lowered his eyes slightly. The green robe he wore exuded a gentlemanly elegance and refinement. The coldness between his brows was like the cold green of mountains and rivers. He finally suppressed the sudden surge in his heart, silently.
In the Lanyue Hall, the meeting was still going on.
The deeper the discussion, the more specific the topic, the more serious the faces of the powerful monks became. Everyone knew clearly what changes the things they talked about today would bring to the land of the Nineteen Continents in the future.
But everyone has no way out.
There are only three things to discuss:
First, is this battle necessary
Second, if they had to fight, should they defend or attack? Should they wait for the Jiyu to attack, or should they attack directly from the Jiuzhou
Third, if a real fight breaks out, how can we defeat the enemy? ωＷＷ.166xs.cc
The first two things are easy to say, and everyone agrees: we must fight, and we must not sit and wait for death, we must strike first and catch Jiyu off guard!
But the third thing requires a lot of effort.
They talked from early morning till late evening, until there was no light in the sky. Only then did they come to a conclusion. But it was already late, so they all stopped talking tacitly and left it for tomorrow.
After a day of hard work, everyone stood up and said goodbye to each other.
After the meeting was over, there were still a few people talking to Fudaoshanren, so Jianchou and the others withdrew from the Lanyue Hall first.
Looking up, the night sky of tomorrow's starry sea is still gloomy.
Perhaps the entire topic of the day was related to the Polar Region, causing her to involuntarily recall everything she had experienced in the Polar Region. So when she saw such a sky, she suddenly thought of the sky in the Polar Region where the sun and the moon could not be seen.
The same gloomy and depressing feeling.
The war is really about to break out, and the restart of the Yin-Yang world war is beyond doubt.
The atmosphere seemed a little solemn. Everyone on Yashan's side stood outside, waiting silently without saying a word.
A man walked out of the hall, took a look and walked straight towards them.
Jianchou noticed it and when she looked up she found that it was Wei Xie, the patriarch of the Wei family, a prestigious southwestern family, who had smiled at her in the hall before.
"Meet my friend Chou, I am polite."
Wei Xie is a rather handsome male cultivator.
Nowadays, the age of the cultivators in the cultivation world cannot be determined by their appearance alone. Generally, one can tell from their cultivation level that although some of them look good, they may be old monsters who have been practicing for hundreds or even thousands of years in secret.
Jianchou was a little confused, but still bowed in return: "Thank you for being polite, senior. May I know who you are?"
"It's nothing important. I just saw you in the hall and wanted to come and thank you after the meeting." Wei Xie had no ill intentions. On the contrary, he was very friendly to Jianchou. "My son ran away from home and made trouble at Zuo Sanqian's meeting. Thanks to you, Jianchou, for taking care of him and preventing this devil from causing any trouble. The three families of Xin, Wei and Jin in the southwest are really grateful."
Dog
The two families of Jin and Wei
When Jianchou saw Wei Xie before, he had made some guesses based on his appearance. Now, after hearing the words he mentioned, he felt that he had guessed some of them, but there was still a doubt that he could not answer: "But I heard that Xiao Jin is the young master of the Jin family..."
"Haha, the affairs of my southwestern aristocratic families are complicated, and the relationships between the major aristocratic families are intricate. It's just that you don't know the root of it."
When Wei Xie heard Chou's words, he laughed, with a somewhat carefree attitude.
"This devil of a mischief maker in my family is my only son. My wife has the blood of both Xin and Jin families. She married me hundreds of years ago and gave birth to my son, who was named 'Zun'. But not long ago, she quarreled with me and took the child back to the Jin family, changing the surname to 'Jin' and calling him 'Jin Zun', making him the young master of the Jin family. But within two years, his grandmother, the old lady of the Xin family, a southwestern family, saw his talent and brought him back to the Xin family to raise him for a while, and he became the young master of the Xin family. So this naughty child is shouldering the future of the three families. These are all family matters, and I think it would make you laugh if I were to tell you about them."
"… "
This complex and intertwined relationship left people speechless. Even the people from Yashan who were standing not far from Jianchou had twitching lips when they heard it.
That little kid eating melons actually has such a powerful background
Jianchou was also enlightened, but he had also seen many more incredible things over the years, so he was able to remain calm and said modestly: "Xiao Jin's talent is indeed rare in the world, but whether in the small meeting or elsewhere, Jianchou didn't take care of him much. On the contrary, he was sincere and helped us a lot in Yashan. We should thank the head of the Wei family."
"It's okay, it's okay. It's good that this kid can make friends."
Wei Xie waved his hand but didn't care. Seeing that everyone in the conference room had come out, he didn't stay any longer. After exchanging a few words with Jianchou and others, he left alone.
Jianchou and others watched him leave.
After the person disappeared, Shen Jiu poked Jianchou with his folding fan and said with a smile, "Big sister, you are really blessed by fate. The Wei, Xin, and Qin families are the three major families in the southwest. You have quietly won the favor of two of them. Oh, that little brat is so powerful. I never expected it."
"It was just an accident."
Jianchou thought about it and found it strange. He could see that Wei Xie had the intention of showing goodwill. On the surface, it was because of Xiao Jin, but if he thought about it carefully, if she was not a great master who had returned to the void, even if Wei Xie was grateful, he would not have such an attitude.
She saw things very clearly and was strong enough, so she didn't think it was a big deal even if such a giant showed goodwill to her, so she didn't think too much about it.
Fu Chaosheng asked her, "What does 'It's better to stay in Xinghai' mean?"
This was the answer Jianchou gave when he asked him in the hall earlier.
Seeing Wei Xie leaving, he asked directly.
Jianchou smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Chaosheng, aren't you going to investigate the matter of reincarnation? The Ghost Gate of the East Pole is where the nine-headed bird carries ghosts back home. It is also the dividing point between the Yin and Yang worlds. If you stay in the Star Sea, you should be able to see many things that you can't normally see. In addition, you have already investigated the Snow Region, and Senior Yangjin is accompanying you on this trip, so you won't be of much use if you go there, such as staying here. What's more, I have something else to do, so I'd like to trouble fellow Daoist Chaosheng to help me keep an eye out for something."
Is there something you need his attention
Fu Chaosheng was a little puzzled and looked at Jianchou.
Jianchou did not give a direct answer, but turned his gaze and looked at the Kunwu people on the other side. Xie Buchen, who was wearing a green robe, was standing among them and was particularly eye-catching.
He was the nobleman who used to boil snow and brew tea, and was wise and far-sighted. Even if he changed into a dark green Taoist robe, it could not hide his extraordinary demeanor. Now there is a bit more indifference and ruthlessness between his brows, but the more so, the more people can't help but look at him sideways.
Like a flawless jade.
It’s just that “a man of small mind is not a gentleman, and a man without viciousness is not a man.” Hidden beneath the appearance of this modest gentleman is a heart with a clear goal and a coldness that makes people feel frightened.
Jianchou looked at him, and of course he noticed Jianchou too.
The two people's eyes met across the void, but no one took a step forward, and no one spoke to the other.
Everything is silent, killing and hatred are all in silence.
Of course, Fu Chaosheng followed Jianchou's gaze and understood when he saw Xie Buchen. The incident in Snow Region had not been long over, and he easily remembered Jianchou's fear of this man, as well as all the strange and inexplicable things about this man.
He pondered, "Is he important to you?"
Jianchou withdrew his gaze indifferently and corrected him: "It is very important for me not to have him."
Fu Chaosheng immediately understood and laughed: "Then I will stay here and act as my old friend's eyes and ears, and watch over him."
Jianchou also smiled and thanked him.
After all, for Fu Chaosheng, he came here not for the survival of the Nineteen Continents, but entirely because of her, his "old friend". Now she is going to the Snow Region, but he wants to stay here. It is somewhat unreasonable, but he easily agreed to it.
A few people waited outside for a while, and then Fu Daoshan and Zheng Yao came out of the hall. However, they looked solemn, obviously affected by the previous meeting.
After returning home in the evening, Fudaoshanren talked with Jianchou for half an hour.
The next morning, before dawn, Jianchou opened his eyes from meditation, bid farewell to his fellow disciples in Yashan, and headed for the square in Suixian City where a stone statue of the Green Leaf Ancestor stood tall.
Qu Zhengfeng and Yang Jin had already arrived next to the teleportation array.
The three of them stepped into the formation together.
After a flash of soft light, it disappeared, leaving only the stone statue that had stood in the square for hundreds of years, holding the "Nine-Bend River Map" and gazing at the vast and boundless sky. It was silent when the wind rose at dawn.
The bloody prelude has already begun.
After today, war will rage and blood will be shed!
The fragile peace that had been maintained for eleven generations on the land of the Nineteen Continents finally shattered the moment they set out. Everyone on this land was a part of it, and no one could escape.
If you don’t advance, you will die. If you don’t fight, you will perish!
