What does this mean
Qu Zhengfeng's words stunned everyone present. Even Kunwu's own cultivators were bewildered and had no idea where this statement came from.
But some people have already begun to have doubts.
Xuanyuan Sword!
This sword is the famous Kunwu sword, and it is held by Shen Jiuhan whom Qu Zhengfeng is looking for. Although the identity of this mummy cannot be seen at first glance, the cultivators who have had contact with Shen Jiuhan in the past can clearly identify that this corpse is Shen Jiuhan himself by simply exploring their spiritual consciousness!
It was said that he had been in seclusion since the last war between the Yin and Yang worlds, and now he is dead
And judging from his appearance, he must have been dead for quite some time.
But for such a powerful cultivator, his sect has a life tablet. If he had died long ago, why didn't anyone know this news
and…
The sword stuck in his chest was the Xuanyuan Sword he himself used!
It is still unknown what the Kunwu monk is thinking, but the people from other sects have already had a lot of doubts, not to mention the meaning of Qu Zhengfeng's words just now, which really makes people wonder what this matter has to do with Zhenren Hengxu.
Could it be…
Was he really murdered
Several of Kunwu's true disciples, who had seen Yue He die at the hands of Qu Zhengfeng's sword, wished they could kill him, and now they did not believe what Qu Zhengfeng said at all.
Zhao Zhuo asked coldly, "Your Majesty the Sword Emperor said you want justice, but you want to slander my master just because a dead body was dumped out for no apparent reason?!"
Qu Zhengfeng glanced at him but ignored him and just looked at Master Hengxu's expression.
For some reason, the discussions in the field suddenly became quieter.
Xie Buchen also followed the other brothers back, of course. He just stood beside the brothers and didn't say anything from the beginning, just watching coldly.
When he heard Zhao Zhuo say the word "false accusation", his handsome eyebrows raised slightly.
There was not much surprise in my heart.
To others, this matter was a mystery that could not be fully understood, but after staying in Kunwu for so many years, he had already guessed most of it.
No one would doubt it if the words "a person has been in seclusion for more than 600 years" came from Hengxu Zhenren, especially when the person in seclusion had made no progress in his cultivation.
Unless he has not made any progress in his cultivation in the past six hundred years.
But whether you get in or not, it's really worth pondering.
If this "Uncle Shen" has a firm faith in Taoism, then his cultivation level would have soared after six hundred years of seclusion; if he has made no progress in cultivation, then he must be trapped by inner demons. How could an inner demon appear out of the blue
In the past, other people might have subconsciously believed in Master Hengxu, but now the corpse was lying in front of everyone. If they thought about it a little further, they would feel that there were many doubts.
Several powerful men looked at each other and walked forward to check.
After a moment, Fairy Xuan Yue picked up the Xuanyuan Sword and said, "This person is indeed Fellow Daoist Shen, and this sword is indeed the Xuanyuan Sword, but..."
A hint of hesitation and doubt appeared on the beautiful face.
She didn't say the rest, but looked at Master Hengxu.
Since Qu Zhengfeng came for Shen Jiuhan, he naturally went straight to the retreat place in the back mountain as soon as he arrived in Kunwu. After breaking the formation and entering the cave, he did not see Shen Jiuhan, but only saw his corpse.
So all the old speculations came true at this moment.
At this moment, the corpse was thrown out in order to completely tear off Hengxu's hypocritical mask!
He did not explain to others at all, but just asked Hengxu: "Master, you, Kunwu, claimed that Shen Jiuhan was in seclusion, but how did he die? And the only wound on his body was caused by your Kunwu Supreme's sharp weapon Xuanyuan Sword, and the murderer did not take the sword after killing him. You know, when he was alive, he was more talented and more popular than Master. Tell me, who has the ability to kill him silently without being noticed by Kunwu and Master?"Μ.166xs.cc
"… "
Zhenren Hengxu's hands, which were hanging in his sleeves, were clenched tightly.
He did not back down or feel guilty at all. He just raised his eyes and looked at Qu Zhengfeng calmly, but he seemed to be thinking about something in his eyes.
But the elder Kunwu standing next to him couldn't help it. He couldn't bear to hear Qu Zhengfeng's "slander" with such a hint. His face turned red with anger and he loudly rebuked: "Do you suspect that the real person killed Junior Brother Shen? What a joke! In the Yin-Yang Realm War, Kunwu, Yashan and the Buddhist sect worked together, but when Kunwu was halfway to Huangquan, it was ambushed by the ghost cultivators of the extreme domain! Even the Buddhist sect didn't know the battle plan that time. They only knew that they were going to Huangquan to meet up. Only Yashan knew the route of Kunwu, so how could it be ambushed? We didn't suspect that you, Yashan, had a ghost, and sent Junior Brother Shen to inform you first. Unexpectedly, Yashan spoke rudely and had an argument with Junior Brother Shen. Now Junior Brother Shen has died tragically, but his body was found by you. It is clear that you, Qu Zhengfeng, had evil intentions and wanted to frame me, the head of Kunwu?!"
"Framed?"
Why does Hengxu need someone to frame him
After hearing the other party's confusing right and wrong words, and hearing the other party mention Yashan in every word, Qu Zhengfeng was not angry, but laughed instead.
When the other party saw him smiling, he thought he didn't take him seriously at all, so he got really angry and wanted to attack him.
But as soon as the hand was raised, a green light came from the side!
"Bang!"
With a heavy bang, the elder was hit hard by the green light and fell to the ground, spitting out blood!
Everyone was shocked.
But everyone could see clearly that this attack did not come from the opposite side, but from the hands of Fudaoshan who had been standing nearby for a long time!
The light from the lush nine-section bamboo had not yet dissipated, emitting a dangerous aura.
There was no expression on Fudaoshanren's face, and his dirty Taoist robe fluttered in the mist of the sea of clouds.
Elder Kunwu was shocked, frightened and puzzled: "What does Elder Fudao mean by this? Are you going to protect this villain?!"
"Is it your turn to speak?"
There was not much anger in Fudaoshanren's voice, and it even had an unprecedented dullness. He only glanced at the elder and then looked away.
Zhenren Hengxu looked at him.
He also looked back calmly and said, "I am really old and confused. I didn't know that Kunwu looked at me like this in the past. Good, very good."
In the battle of Huangquan, thousands of cultivators of Yashan died.
The Buddhists were unable to arrive in time due to the turmoil in the Tantric Buddhism; Kunwu claimed that he was attacked on the road and rushed here after killing his enemies, but by then there were few living people left in Yashan.
When Shen Jiuhan came to report the news, he had a big fight with Yashan and there has been no explanation to date.
They originally thought that Kunwu must be feeling guilty towards Yashan, but they did not expect that they would be ambushed on the road, and the first person they suspected was Yashan!
If you hadn’t told me this today, I really wouldn’t have known!
Elder Kunwu then realized that he had said the wrong thing, but it was difficult to take back what he had said. Moreover, with Fudaoshanren’s rebuke before him, how could he dare to say anything more
Instead, Qu Zhengfeng clapped his hands and laughed.
Under the gaze of Master Hengxu, he remained calm and composed, saying, "Finally, you have answered my doubts that I have had for many years! Master is indeed the wisest man in Kunwu's time. Such a plan is really admirable!"
Smart people who know some inside information have already figured out the key points without any reminder.
But some people don’t understand.
For example, Zhang Yuandai.
He was completely confused now. He felt that everyone talking was like listening to a riddle. He was very impatient: "What are you all talking about? Now this, then that. Can you make yourself clear? It's a pity that Fellow Daoist Shen Jiuhan died, but he's dead, what's the big deal? And you're saying that the real person killed him for no reason... Real person, can you say something?"
He was halfway through his words when he remembered Master Hengxu and quickly turned around to ask.
But Master Hengxu said nothing.
Only that withered face was gloomy and gray, revealing a dead and twilight atmosphere that was about to end.
Who hadn’t seen his immortal demeanor in the past
The current appearance is really frightening.
But when Qu Zhengfeng saw this, he was extremely pleased. He just smiled and said to Zhang Yuandai: "How dare the master answer you? After all, killing a fellow disciple is a serious crime, even in the unclean Kunwu! If he admits it, how can he continue to sit on the throne of Kunwu and continue to enjoy the respect of the righteous people in the world?"
It was quiet all around.
No one dared to move, no one dared to speak.
Only Qu Zhengfeng, in an extremely sarcastic tone, told all the stories of the past!
"Let Qu guess."
"Eleven years ago, you, Kunwu, were on your way to the underworld as agreed, but you were attacked halfway. And only Yashan knew your route. So naturally I suspect Yashan. Maybe someone said something at that time. This is not surprising. After all, it is not wrong for you, Kunwu, to be so suspicious."
"But you sent Shen Jiuhan to deliver the message."
"Who doesn't know that this is Uncle Shen, who is arrogant and conceited about his extraordinary talent, and who is loved by the Master, and who holds the Xuanyuan Sword of the Kunwu Supreme? How can he be tolerant of others?"
"Although Master Hengxu was not the abbot at that time, he was mature and thoughtful."
"At that time, both sides had difficulty trusting each other and even doubted each other. According to common sense, they should have sent someone who had a close relationship with the monks of Yashan and was more stable. But the person they sent was Shen Jiuhan..."
"Did no one raise any objection at that time, Kunwu?"
At this point, several Kunwu elders looked at Master Hengxu in surprise and suspicion.
No words are needed, this look says a lot.
All the cultivators above the sea of clouds felt a chill in their hearts and their scalps tingling, and they just quietly looked at Master Hengxu's expression.
Master Hengxu finally laughed: "So, you actually suspected that I deliberately sent Junior Brother Shen to report the news and let him attack you by surprise?"
"Of course not. The real master is very shrewd and scheming. How could he use such a stupid method?"
Qu Zhengfeng sneered, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
"You know your junior brother's character too well. He is conceited and arrogant. When Kunwu was suspicious of Yashan, Shen Jiuhan had some hostility towards Yashan. Even if it was not obvious, given his temperament, if he disagreed with someone, a dispute would definitely break out! You didn't need to instigate him at all. Just letting him appear in front of Yashan's cultivators would be enough to make him make a mistake! What's more, since you, Kunwu, came to help too late, Yashan must be resentful. How can there be any good talk between the two of them?!"
All of you powerful people have seen Kunwu Shen Jiuhan in the past. If you think about it carefully, it is just as Qu Zhengfeng said, he is a little arrogant, but most of the time he does not cause any trouble.
only…
If we really put it in that situation...
Everyone looked at each other and no one interrupted.
Qu Zhengfeng's mocking expression had now turned completely cold.
All the old hatreds surfaced, turning his eyes into a terrifying dark red!
Just staring at Hengxu like a ferocious beast ready to eat anyone at any time!
"Everyone in the Nineteen Continents knows that the Xuanyuan Sword is the ultimate Kunwu weapon, but Taoist Qingxu did not pass this sword to you. Instead, he passed it to your junior brother Shen Jiuhan!"
"He is more talented than you, and is more favored by your master."
"The position of the Kunwu leader was originally undecided."
"But after the battle in the Yin-Yang Realm, Taoist Qingxu was seriously injured and died. Shen Jiuhan also made a big mistake when reporting to Yashan, so he went into seclusion to escape Yashan's questioning! You, Hengxu, deserve the position of the head of Kunwu. No one can replace you, let alone question you!"
"From the beginning to the end, it was all selfish!"
"Not only did you trick Shen Jiuhan into making a mistake, eliminating the threat to your position from your junior brother, but you also firmly took the position of the head of Kunwu and became the undisputed leader of the righteous path in the world. You also weakened the power of Yashan, making your Kunwu the undisputed number one in the Central Region in the past eleven generations!"
"It's really a good reputation that spreads, who wouldn't admire it!"
The sharp words echoed above the sea of clouds, shaking everyone's hearts, but when it came to this, a sense of unspeakable sorrow was revealed!
Fudao Shanren listened and closed his eyes.
The palm holding the nine-section bamboo trembles slightly.
As Qu Zhengfeng spoke, he laughed miserably. The questions sounded as if coming from the sky, making people terrified!
"But the real person—"
"What is the fault of Yashan? What is the fault of the fallen Qian Xiu?!"
"You planned everything for your own selfish interests, but you didn't expect that something unexpected happened to the Buddhist sect at that time. Both sides were unable to come to the rescue in time, and Yashan was surrounded by extreme ghost cultivators. Thousands of cultivators died tragically on the banks of the Yellow Spring!"
"Six hundred and sixty years!"
"Every time I presided over a small meeting at Yashan, you passed by on the ropeway and saw the thousands of graves on the riverbank. Didn't you feel guilty and should die to atone for your sins?!"
The four words "die to atone for one's sins" sounded gloomy and cruel.
This is absolutely not a joke!
Qu Zhengfeng massacred Kunwu today and killed half of the Kunwu cultivators, including many elite warriors who had just returned from the battlefield. It is clear that he will not give up so easily!
From the moment he asked Shen Jiuhan to come out for a confrontation, everything that followed was planned.
The blood on Master Hengxu's robe had not yet dried, and he only asked him, "You have been holding back what you said today for a long time, right? You have been trapped in the Nascent Soul stage for four hundred years, and your cultivation has made no progress, so you still have hatred in your heart. Although you have rebelled today, you have come to seek justice on behalf of Yashan. After all, I have calculated everything, but I missed you, and you, a demon, have killed Kunwu and committed this unforgivable crime, killing countless sins!"
"What a 'unforgivable sin, killing all kinds of evil'!"
Qu Zhengfeng laughed loudly upon hearing this. He was filled with sorrow and anger, but he was not surprised at all. If Master Hengxu would easily admit it and feel guilty, he would not have done such a conspiracy back then!
But how can I calm down the anger and hatred in my heart? !
"From what you said, it seems that I, Qu Zhengfeng, have committed serious sins and cannot escape death? But today, in front of everyone in the world, do you dare to deny the evil deeds you committed in the past?!"
Zhenren Hengxu's eyes were extremely cold, and his emotions did not fluctuate significantly from beginning to end. His voice was even more indifferent when he spoke: "Junior Brother Shen's matter is our Kunwu's internal affairs, and there is no need for outsiders to interfere. It is also true that we were attacked halfway and did not have time to reinforce Yashan. It is absolutely true. The world is unpredictable, and no one could have expected that the Buddhist Tantric sect would cause chaos and ruin the plan. We, Kunwu, will never take the opportunity to kill the lives of the Yashan practitioners! Since I, Hengxu, took over Kunwu, I have been walking the righteous path. I ask myself, I have never done anything to let down the righteous path of the world and Kunwu. I am worthy of heaven and earth!"
There was another commotion above the sea of clouds.
Obviously, Qu Zhengfeng's previous words did not seem to be false, but everyone had seen what Zhenren Hengxu had done over the years. Apart from the fact that he attacked the mayfly monster Fu Chaosheng without any warning in Bafang City, there was really nothing to criticize about him.
What's more, the big demon is indeed an evil demon, and is also somehow related to the god...
People really don't know what the truth of the matter is.
But when Fudao Shanren heard these words, he finally looked towards Hengxu, with a trance in his eyes.
Qu Zhengfeng seemed to have heard some ridiculous joke.
He simply couldn't believe that at this moment, Hengxu could still speak nonsense: "You, Hengxu, can only say that you are worthy of Kunwu! You follow the right path and have no regrets! How dare you say that? You have really forgotten how many evil things you have done! Since you dare to say that, then Qu might as well ask the real person and his proud disciple to come and recognize it together!"
“Bang!”
It turned out to be a small wooden sign that was thrown down and landed in front of everyone!
It looks like a simple tombstone.
And what was written on the tombstone was—
The tomb of my wife Xie Jianchou!
"Xie Shi is worried?"
"See you?"
"Is it the one from Yashan who was so sad?"
"Xie's???"
"Why does this handwriting look so familiar?"
"this… "
“No way?!!”
…
If everything before was still unclear and everyone had guesses but did not dare to make any conclusions, then the wooden sign thrown out by Qu Zhengfeng at this moment instantly ignited all discussions.
After all, who doesn’t know the word “见愁”
Moreover, Qu Zhengfeng mentioned "the immortal's most distinguished disciple" in his words. Among those thirteen true disciples, only one had the surname Xie!
Zhenren Hengxu's eyelids twitched suddenly and his pupils shrank drastically!
Even Xie Buchen, who was standing aside inconspicuously, was stunned for a moment when he saw the tombstone that had become somewhat old over the years and the words written on it.
He never thought that there would be a day when he would see this monument again...
"Why, you don't recognize any of them?"
The murderous aura in Qu Zhengfeng's eyes gradually solidified. He only thought of how ironic it was when he found an opportunity to leave the Polar Region during the war and go to the isolated island on earth to find the grave in the mountains and see the tombstone half buried in the ground!
"It's okay, it's okay..."
As he spoke, he shook his sleeves.
A wisp of dark black smoke emerged from the wide golden sleeves and quickly condensed into a human shape.
He turned out to be a handsome man.
He was wearing gorgeous clothes and holding a folding fan in his hand. Although he was protected by Qu Zhengfeng's power, he still hated the bright sky of the Nineteen Continents and hurriedly opened the folding fan to block the light from his head.
He was about to complain when he looked up and saw Xie Buchen in the crowd.
But this time, he didn't dare to speak rashly. After all, he was almost silenced last time!
Others did not recognize this ghost cultivator, but several powerful cultivators had seen him in the Wrongful Death City, and they were even more familiar with the words that were interrupted by Master Hengxu that day. Thinking of Xie Buchen and Jianchou's personal admissions of having had something with each other, they were really surprised to see him again, and at the same time, they suddenly realized in their hearts: it turned out that the one who secretly rescued this ghost cultivator was actually Qu Zhengfeng!
Qu Zhengfeng had no intention of explaining to anyone, and only said: "More than eighty years have passed, and it seems that the master has even forgotten that he once instigated a mortal to kill his wife to prove his Dao, which is a heinous thing! Chen Tingyan, all the cultivators who claim to be righteous are here today, come and help him and his disciple think clearly!"
