Qu Duanyun's breathing stopped for a moment. If he could, he wanted to turn off the signal fireworks that summoned the Taiheng Sect.
At this moment, he lifted a stone and smashed his own foot - no wonder Shi Jing first let everyone in Yueshui Pavilion know about the hanging wood, the common people knew nothing about it, but the leaders of the major sects were all knowledgeable. This bad move suddenly turned into a ruthless move that frightened people and disrupted his steps.
Forget about Sect Leader Qi, now it’s about the “weak people”… When Tai Heng comes, he will definitely stand on Shi Zhongyu’s side.
If the hanging wood was exposed to the martial arts world, the actions of the Yinxian Association would be restricted, but the damage would last for a hundred years. The martial arts world values friendship more than ordinary people, and is closer to the people than the government. If the news that "the old man's short life was caused by the hanging wood" spread, I don't know what kind of chaos it would cause.
One move away from winning.
How come another chess move is wrong!
What refugees and bandits, what soft fish monsters, they are all tricks to mislead himself. Originally, Qu Duanyun still didn't understand what Shi Jing was up to, but now it is obvious-
Those two bastards were actually being intimate in broad daylight!
The last time I saw the True Immortal, the two from the Kushan Sect were still like this. So the previous disagreements were all just acting
Yin Ci may have taken advantage of Shi Jing's lustful nature and used some tricks to lure Shi Jing to his side with love and desire. It is not impossible that Shi Jing was deceived by the sweet words and whispered to him.
He was a founding general, but now he has thrown away his integrity and face just to seek revenge!
It just so happened that Shi Jing was hugging Yin Ci like a vine entwined with a tree, his face full of tenderness, without any trace of hostility or madness. Even the monk Juehui had to chant a few Buddhist mantras and look away.
"Capture them all!" Qu Duanyun commanded the soldiers around him and gave the order with a stiff upper lip.
The people who stayed behind were from the Immortal Guidance Society, who knew the pros and cons of this. Suddenly, magic weapons glowed in the wilderness, surrounding the lonely group of people in the wilderness.
The situation must be reversed as soon as possible. Qu Duanyun's forehead was covered with sweat. A random punch could still kill an old master, and most of the people coming were righteous people, so he couldn't be ruthless. It should be like this, it should be like this... But so many "it should be like this" were shattered in front of him one by one.
His heart and lungs seemed to be filled with lead. He could not get rid of his panic, and his ominous premonition grew stronger and stronger.
"Go ahead, no need to leave anyone alive!"
As soon as Qu Duanyun finished speaking, countless magical instruments shone towards those people. The son of desire and the root of evil would be fine, but the rest would be strangled to pieces. Qu Duanyun held his breath in his chest, staring at the figures of those people.
In the dazzling light, there was only a clear sound, and the colorful light was instantly bounced away by an invisible cover.
Oops.
Dust was everywhere on the wasteland. Horse hooves kicked up dust all over the sky, and long swords emitted a little cold light. The officers and soldiers were wearing fine armor and spears, and they were aggressive. They could suppress the mob of small sects, but they could not suppress the great Tai Heng. The protective magic was very powerful, and it came just in time to offset the bombardment of the Immortal Inducing Association.
The people of Taiheng arrived earlier than expected.
Qu Duanyun looked up and saw the man in light-colored tights. Before the man arrived, his upright and gentle attitude had arrived first, like a huge rock in a hurricane.
The man carried a heavy stone sword on his back. He was the leader of the martial arts world, Yan Qing.
In a trance, the two switched positions. At the moment, Yan Qing was riding a horse, looking down at him. The man frowned slightly, and there was a bit of pity in his eyes.
Qu Duanyun almost couldn't breathe - Shi Jingxun was fine, Yin Zizhu was fine, but even this bastard spawned by the devil dared to show mercy to him
There was suddenly a hint of murderous intent in his aura.
"Amitabha." As if sensing the change in the atmosphere, Monk Juehui took a step forward before Yan Qing could speak. The old man cleared his throat, his voice like a bell. "I testify that what the Kushan Sect said before is true. It is true that Qu Duanyun colluded with the Yinxian Society and betrayed his master and ancestors!"
The Yueshui Pavilion nodded and tremblingly agreed.
As expected, the atmosphere suddenly changed. Qu Duanyun finally turned his gaze away from Yan Qing, his expression filled with gloom.
All the people who came to Taiheng were elites, so it was inevitable that there would be a big stir. Some were suspicious, some cursed. Many more people expressed disbelief, with hesitation still between their brows. Qu Duanyun looked at these people one by one, as if he wanted to remember them all by heart.
Yan Qing didn't answer him, and swung the stone sword, saying loudly: "There is a witness. According to the rules of the martial arts world, take this man back to Taiheng first!"
"A scoundrel with evil eyes, a monkey in a human costume."
Qu Duanyun's voice was trembling, and he had no idea how to stop. He subconsciously tightened his grip on the hilt of the sword, and his mouth became dry and his right hand became extremely cold.
Without instructions, the soldiers did not act rashly. They gathered around Qu Duanyun, and the besiegers on the one hand became the besieged side, which was an extremely funny scene.
"You guys have been deceived by the Kushan Sect and are using others' knife to kill people."
These people were not present at the scene, so they could still deceive us a little. But this was the time when the great cause of the century was about to be accomplished, and we had to take the lead and move forward.
"I have always wanted to be the head of Taiheng Sect, and I have a father-son relationship with Headmaster Qi. How could I kill him for no reason?"
If they were not a group of idiots who were blinded by a single leaf and could not see the big mountain, how could they ruin their great cause again and again? How could he, Qu Duanyun, be such an incompetent person
There is still hope for this matter. There must be hope for this matter. Yes.
As expected, Sect Leader Qu's gentlemanly demeanor was so well created, and coupled with the old friendship, there was another commotion within Tai Heng. Many people showed their approval, and had the intention of approaching Qu Duanyun.
This man just wanted to silence her, but now he acted like a gentleman. Shi Zhongyu couldn't help but get angry. She was about to open her mouth to refute him, but Yan Qing rode forward and blocked her way: "Master Qu, we'll have plenty of time to talk when we get back to Taiheng."
His tone was calm and his aura was warm. His words were like spring breeze and rain, without any intention of suppressing others. The tragic and majestic aura that Qu Duanyun had created with great difficulty dissipated all over the ground, and the people of Taiheng Sect also calmed down and continued to set up formations to surround people.
"Before the Chi Gou Cult was dealt with, Tai Heng took the lead in rebelling. This is the bandit suppression army sent by the emperor himself. Do you want to clash with the imperial court because of private matters in the martial arts world?"
The quarrel was heated, but Yan Qing calmly resolved it. Qu Duanyun's fist hit cotton, but he had to put on a good show, so he had to endure the humiliation and continue.
"People from all the major sects are here, there's no need to drag Tai Heng into this. It's better for us to all take a step back and show respect to the rebels when we catch them. I'll let you guys deal with me as you wish!"
He almost roared out these words, which contained some sincerity.
"The Yinxian Society threw dirty water first, and then came here in person. How can anything good happen to Master Shi if he falls into their hands?" Hua Jingchun laughed tartly. "It's better for both of us to take a step back. It's better for both of us to take a step back. Why don't we let Master Shi be managed by the upright Tai Heng? Everyone, follow me and deal with Xia Xilong. Unlike this unfounded incident, this is a real achievement—"
Jue Hui, who was always good-tempered, didn't buy it either, and immediately said sincerely and sarcastically: "Everything has its own size, and the grudges of the emperor cannot be compared with the common people. The leader is only eight feet tall, and he can't harm many people. Master Qu should first explain the matter of the demon tree."
It's a deep quagmire, impossible to move forward.
Since we can't silence them, we might as well kill as many as we can.
Qu Duanyun laughed loudly, took two steps forward, and his face was a little distorted: "Very good, I'll explain it clearly now!"
Everyone saw the dazzling light of the Guanwu Sword, and the overwhelming anger and rage. He did not show any sign of surrendering. Qu Duanyun took advantage of everyone's laxity, spun around, and suddenly his momentum exploded. He seemed to have chosen a position on purpose before, but now the sword was aimed directly at Shi Zhongyu. The enemy had no time to dodge, so he had to forcibly meet it with his sword.
The two forces collided, and Shi Zhongyu was pushed back several steps, with a large patch of grass on his heels.
"Asshole!" She glared, "Don't you even care about the dignity of the righteous path?"
Qu Duanyun did not answer, aiming at her and attacking like a storm. Yan Qing and Jue Hui attacked at the same time, but were blocked by the soldiers' magic weapons and could not move forward for a while. The people of Taiheng struggled for a moment between "rebel" and "kill the leader to avenge his enemies", and also attacked with gritted teeth.
The soldiers on the other side were not as skilled as Tai Heng in martial arts, but they were all ruthless and willing to take the risk of blood. Qu Duanyun was at the end of his rope, and these soldiers were like mad dogs that had smelled blood, each of them was extremely ruthless. The two groups of people were entangled in a fight, revealing that they were evenly matched.
Unfortunately, a dog can never defeat a wolf.
While the soldiers were being held back by Tai Heng, Yin Ci didn't even blink, and with a flick of his Diaoying Sword, he immediately intercepted Qu Duanyun's move. Shi Jingyi also completely disregarded the ethics of the martial arts world, and waved his "Medicine to Cure Disease" flag, and rushed towards Qu Duanyun's heart. Both of them were ruthless and merciless, and they cooperated closely, and their moves were completely unsparing.
Qu Duanyun abruptly stopped his moves, and his vital energy immediately rushed to his internal organs, causing him to vomit a large mouthful of blood. He wanted to move forward, but the road ahead was blocked by Yin Ci, and he couldn't touch anyone. He wanted to retreat, but there was a man in front of him who didn't hide his murderous intent at all, and each move was more ruthless than the last.
Even though Qu Duanyun had the power of a true immortal to protect him, he still couldn't defeat the two monster-like people. Seeing that Shi Jing had no intention of showing mercy, the evildoer turned his head, and the flagpole burned with golden fire, and stabbed at Qu Duanyun's heart again -
Monk Juehui's eyes fixed, and Hua Hufa paused. The battlefield seemed to freeze, waiting for the moment when blood would splatter everywhere.
"Master Shi."
At this critical juncture, Yan Qing spoke calmly.
"He is still accused of being a traitor, so it is best not to take action. Taiheng will handle Taiheng's affairs. Please leave this person to me and Senior Shi."
This interruption gave Qu Duanyun a chance to catch his breath. He jumped and escaped from Shi Jingxun's hands in an instant. Shi Jingxun's facial features were distorted, and he was obviously very reluctant. Yin Ci put his hand on him, and he put down the flag in dismay, as if the fat meat at his mouth was snatched away by someone.
"Whatever Taiheng has to deal with, Taiheng will solve it. We'll probably leave him alone..."
"If he wants to die, he should apologize in front of Qi Xundao's tomb before dying." Yan Qing jumped off his horse and interrupted Shi Jingyi neatly. "If he wants to die with resentment like this, won't he have to go to the City of Wrongful Death to disturb Sect Leader Qi?"
Qu Duanyun spat bloody saliva, his face was filled with disdain and resentment. He pinched his sleeves and stood in front of the remaining defeated soldiers, his expression gloomy.
There was no battle of wits, no duel of arms. His judgment along the way was also led by the other side. Tai Heng, who had grown up with him for more than a decade, was now standing in front of him, trying to capture him like a prisoner.
It was an ugly loss, I don’t…
"Alright, alright."
Qu Duanyun's face was half melancholy and half crazy, like a dying beast. His eyes were slightly red, and his tone was more bloody.
"Even if Yuzi was seduced by the evil root... losing to Yuzi may be destiny. This is destiny, and mortals like us really can't resist it."
"I cannot save these people's lives by myself. Master, please lend me a helping hand."
A piece of written clothes fell from his sleeve, and a faint aura of magic still remained.
A long sigh floated in the wind, and a man's figure gradually emerged where the clothes fell to the ground. Just like the maple forest in Juyi Valley 24 years ago.
"It's also a good thing to know when to give in and admit defeat."
Jiang Youyue smiled slightly.
A pair of giant hands slowly appeared around the Imperial Master, gathering around him like bat wings. In an instant, the sky and earth were dark, and the mighty power was overwhelming. Everyone froze in place, unable to move at all.
"When you do something, you have to do it thoroughly. This is what General Yin taught us. It's time to clean up after this farce."
