Don't let Yu Ding take on any more disciples.

Chapter 112 He lacked a suitable weapon
Jinxia Cave.

Yu Ding stood before the cloud bed, holding a pile of jade scrolls and heavenly books, his face expressionless.

"Who touched my book...?"

He gazed at the first edition of the Primordial Dragon Subduing Palm scroll, which had been carelessly tossed onto the cloud bed.

Gradually, his expression darkened.

Of course, if someone sees an unfinished divine power scroll, at most they might practice it incorrectly and suffer a qi deviation.

But tossing it to him so casually after seeing it... that's too much!

"Qingyun!"

"I've arrived, sir!"

Qingyun trotted in excitedly and saw Yuding sitting on the cloud bed. He asked skillfully, "Would you like some tea, Master?"

Even though they had become nominal disciples, serving tea and water had long been a habit they had developed over the years.

Unlike some heartless true disciples or those who are merely nominal disciples, they have no regard for the master's feelings at all.

"No, I won't drink. Who went into Jinxia Cave just now?"

"It seems... Senior Brother Yang Jian came in. Would you like some fruit, sir?"

"I won't eat it, Yang Jian..."

Yu Ding pondered for a moment: "Anything else?"

"That's all... nothing more."

Qingyun thought for a moment and shook his head.

"Yes, that's true. With the cultivation level of a three-headed dragon, you wouldn't be able to detect it if it ran in."

Yu Ding said thoughtfully, "When the Dragon Subduing Palm is invented, the first thing to do is to test it on this guy."

Qingyun stared at his master in astonishment.

"By the way, where is Yang Jian?" Yu Ding asked.

Qingyun pondered for a moment and said, "Senior Brother Yang Jian just rushed back to Guanjiang Estuary."

"Returning water to the river mouth..."

Yu Ding nodded slightly. That's the downside of being a civil servant with a formal position; work can come on its own.

"Master, Yunhua requests an audience."

At that moment, a voice rang out from outside the cave.

Yu Ding said, "Please come in, fairy."

Yunhua entered the cave with a graceful figure, accompanied by a pretty young girl in her late teens.

Upon seeing Yu Ding, the young girl bowed and smiled, saying, "Master Yu Ding!"

Yu Ding's eyes lit up. He had only been in the Heavenly Court for a few days, and Xiao Chan'er had grown so much.

But soon his lips twitched.

Yang Chan was wearing a Taoist robe that was clearly several sizes too big for her.

“Master, a sudden demon has been causing trouble and harming people at the mouth of the Guanjiang River.”

Yunhua said, "Erlang went to deal with it first, because he couldn't find the True Man to say goodbye, so he specifically asked me to inform the True Man."

"There's no need for you to come and inform me of this, Fairy. I understand that it is Yang Jian's duty." Yu Ding nodded slightly.

Actually, he was researching information in that library cave.

However, the cave entrance had a protective barrier, good sound insulation, and high security, so we missed it.

"I'm worried that Erlang might not be able to handle things on his own at Guanjiangkou, so I've come to say goodbye to you, Master."

As Yunhua spoke, he glanced at Yang Chan and said cryptically, "Chan'er and I have been separated for too long. I wonder if you would allow me to take Chan'er back to Guanjiangkou for a few more days to reunite and change her clothes?"

"The fairy and Yang Chan have been separated for too long. How could I, a humble Taoist, not help them achieve their happy ending?"

Yu Ding said happily, but felt embarrassed. In some ways, it was quite inconvenient for a male immortal to take on a female disciple.

Then, changing the subject, he asked, "Speaking of the demons causing trouble on Yang Jian's side... could it be related to Meishan?"

Let him think about it. It seems that there aren't any famous monsters around Guanjiangkou besides the Seven Monsters of Meishan, right?
No no no no!

Could it really be such a coincidence?

Those two fellow disciples must not fight!

"The Master is indeed incredibly resourceful," Yunhua praised.

"My brilliant strategies are nothing..." Yu Ding felt a pang in his heart and looked up at the sky with a melancholy at a 45-degree angle.

It's true what they say, what you fear most is what happens.

Yunhua said, "Then I'll take my leave now."

Yu Ding nodded: "Qingyun, see the guest out!"

"Teacher, I'll be going now!"

Yang Chan secretly waved to Yu Ding.

Qingyun agreed and escorted Yunhua and Yang Chan out of the Golden Cloud Cave.

Yu Ding's expression slowly darkened.

"What's wrong with Yuan Hong? Hasn't Meishan been quite well-behaved all these years?"

He hasn't been idle over the years either; through inquiries, he has roughly learned about the events surrounding Yuan Hong's rampage in Heaven.

He also learned that the irregularities of some Heavenly Generals had ultimately led to this situation.

What's even more awkward is that the divine general seems to be from the Xuantian Sword Sect, where the founder of the sect met with misfortune.

Now he has become the patriarch of the signboard.

Although he did not admit it, receiving merit every now and then is a wonderful thing.

Even if those merits are not much.

Ahem, I've digressed, but in short, after learning the cause of Yuan Hong's rampage in the Heavenly Palace, his master felt that if he had made a scene, so be it; it would be good to teach those gods a lesson.

I was just a little impulsive.

Later, Yuan Hong, just like before, formed the Seven Monsters of Meishan and gathered a group of monsters under his command.
However, Yuan Hong did not do anything immoral or immoral, nor did he commit any evil deeds or harm the common people. Instead, he restrained the monsters under his command.

Therefore, he abandoned the idea of ​​cleaning up the sect and let his apprentice off the hook.

Unexpectedly, something strange happened again this time.

Of course, after thinking it over, he concluded that there were only two possibilities in the end.

The first reason is naturally that Yuan Hong failed to properly discipline his subordinates, and they actually committed such a crime; this is the simplest explanation.

The second one...

"Is someone interfering and framing him?"

Yu Ding's eyes flashed and his expression changed slightly.

Although he prefers a world where people are simpler and less calculating, this primordial world is undoubtedly a world full of schemes.

Countless powerful beings have proven this to the world through their downfall.

Especially now, on the eve of the Investiture of the Gods, the secrets of heaven are gradually becoming unclear.

Just like when it gets dark, some people who like to be active at night start to get restless.

From the perspective of framing someone, what was the other party's intention?

After all, Yang Jian's current status is extraordinary; he is both a Dharma Protector of the Chan Sect and a member of the Heavenly Court.

With such a double halo, most people would have to think twice before trying to scheme against him. So, is it possible that this isn't targeting Yang Jian, but rather...?

"Yuan Hong...no, we still have to go and see him!"

Yu Ding sighed, "He's really a handful..."

Whether it's the scheme against Yuan Hong or Yang Jian, both are his prized disciples, and as their master, he can't just sit idly by.

If it's Yuan Hong, who doesn't have a background like Yang Jian, then he should definitely go and check him out.

A golden light shot up from Yuquan Mountain and disappeared into the clouds.

Drain the estuary.

The villagers who were affected by the disaster have now set up tents outside the temple and received assistance.

but,
Their attention was still focused on the deity in the temple who protected the area.

Why do they worship gods?

Isn't it because they, as mortals, are too weak and need the protection and blessing of gods?
Inside the temple.

Yang Jian had already arrived at the temple, his brow furrowed, sitting at the top with his fists clenched.
He was already famous, and people thought that with him in charge of Guanjiangkou, evil spirits would not dare to cause trouble.

In fact, it is true.

After he dealt with some foolish demons, the people of Guanjiang Estuary lived in peace and prosperity for several years.

This is why he felt safe going to Yuquan Mountain.

Little did I know that trouble would strike so soon after I left.

Such a big incident, with over three hundred dead and injured and more than one hundred missing...

Yang Jian clenched his fists tightly.

If it were any other demon, he would have already led his men to his door to demand an explanation.

But Yuan Hong, who was involved this time, was his senior apprentice.

Although his senior brother was born as a demon, he was chosen by his master to be taught skills, so it can be known that he was not evil by nature and had already attained immortality.

Yang Jian might not believe in himself,

You can also choose not to believe that senior brother.

But he couldn't help but believe Yu Ding no matter what.

"Master, what should I do?"

Yang Jian hesitated; it was too late to inform Yuan Hong now.

Countless eyes were fixed on this place.

Below stood several ghost judges and Qi cultivators, who, upon seeing Yang Jian, dared not even utter a sound.

Yuan Hong is a renowned demon, and Meishan is a place where demons gather. Once a war breaks out, the consequences will be unpredictable.

Outside the temple.

"Grandpa, will Mom come back?"

An old man's baby looked up and asked.

The old man glanced into the temple.

Inside the temple, Yang Jian suddenly raised his head:
"Light up the eight hundred grass-root gods and come with me to Meishan."

"Yes!"

Everyone was startled and immediately went to prepare.

"If I say this matter has nothing to do with Meishan, will you believe me, my dear brother?"

Inside the main hall, a ray of light flew in and flew to Yang Jian, turning into a monkey hair.

Yang Jian said in a deep voice, "I trust my brother, but I don't trust his subordinates."

"Before coming here, I thoroughly investigated Meishan and found that more than a hundred demons had indeed gone missing."

Monkey Hair said, "But they disappeared without a trace, just like they evaporated from the world."

Moreover, we discovered over a hundred unconscious human women fifty miles outside Meishan today… That was a brilliant move.”

His voice turned somewhat somber towards the end.

Yang Jian frowned: "This wasn't done by the demons of Meishan?"

"Absolutely not. If it weren't for you having to lift a finger, I would have brought them to you myself."

"Are those people dead or alive?"

"Alive."

Yang Jian breathed a sigh of relief and said in a deep voice, "It seems we'll have to fight."

"It's time for a fight!"

Four words simultaneously arose in their minds.

Take advantage of the situation!

“I have refined this monkey hair, and it is connected to my mind and spirit. You can keep it so that we can contact each other at any time.”

As he spoke, the monkey hair lost its luster, swayed, and drifted down.

Yang Jian reached out and grabbed it, his expression turning somewhat strange as he stared at the golden monkey fur.

"Oh, and don't call your mother!"

Suddenly, the monkey's fur lit up again, and it added a sentence. Yang Jian: "..."

Just as the people were gazing at the Zhenjun Temple,
Suddenly, a figure rose into the air.

Eight large clouds followed behind, filled with divine beings clad in armor, heading towards Meishan.

"The True Lord has manifested!"

"Grandpa Erlang has made a move!"

The crowd immediately cheered.

Yang Jian led a group of grass-root gods out of Guanzhou City in a grand procession, heading towards Meishan amidst a fierce wind.

Meishan, the main hall.

Yuan Hong reclined on the top chair.

They were discussing what to do with the group of women.

"Brother, it's not good."

Zhu Zizhen rushed in, saying, "Erlang Shen, who caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace, is attacking!"

"What's the panic? You've lived for over a thousand years, and a twenty-year-old kid has scared you like this."

Jin Dasheng stretched out his fan-like hand and slapped Zhu Zizhen on the head, pointing at Yuan Hong: "So it was Yang Jian who made a ruckus in the Heavenly Palace, didn't our eldest brother also make a ruckus?"

No, I just went there to reason with them...

Yuan Hong sighed silently, then suddenly stood up, raised his hand, and grabbed a long staff. He strode forward and said, "Take this weapon and come with me."

The other six monsters cheered, "Catch Yang Jian! Capture Erlang!"

They were controlled by Yuan Hong for over a hundred years, forbidden from killing or eating people, and told to cultivate their minds and character.

How could they possibly stand that?
However, since Yuan Hong had the biggest fist, they had to accept it, but they were also severely suppressed, with nowhere to vent their energy.

This is perfect!

Yuan Hong: "..."

"correct!"

Just before leaving the main hall, Yuan Hong turned around and said, "You don't need to do anything this time, just watch."

"Why?" Liu Guai was taken aback.

Yuan Hong raised an eyebrow and said, "How about I hand Yang Jian over to you?"

"How skilled is Yang Jian?"

The six oddballs were indeed eager to try.

"Their realm is the same as mine, and their magical power is no less than mine."

Hiss... The six monsters gasped inwardly, exchanged glances, and clasped their hands in unison, saying solemnly:

"Then I'll have to trouble you, brother."

At this moment, Yang Jian's army also approached Meishan.

"This time, you just watch; you don't need to lift a finger."

Yang Jian replied.

"Yes!"

Although the crowd was puzzled, they still obeyed the order.

But they soon understood.

As they approached the main peak of Meishan, all the monsters on the mountainside began to scream.

In an instant, the shouts of monsters filled the mountains and fields.

"This... so much?"

Yang Jian's men were stunned by what they saw.

However, Yang Jian let out a soft snort, and a tremendous pressure shattered the sounds of those monsters.

“Erlang Shen, I, Yuan Hong, have made it clear to you that Meishan and your Zhenjun Temple will not interfere with each other.”

Yuan Hong raised his hand and pointed at Yang Jian, shouting, "Why have you brought such a large army to our borders today?"

"Then why do you allow those demons to burn, kill, plunder, and stir up trouble?" Yang Jian asked in a deep voice.

Yuan Hong asked, "What evidence do you have?"

"I know the evidence, Erlang Zhenjun! The woman captured by the Meishan demon is being kept in the mountains!"

Suddenly, a little monster shouted towards the sky.

"Ok?"

Yang Jian and Yuan Hong's expressions changed simultaneously as they looked at the little demon.

"Hey, you bastard..."

The demons of Meishan were also furious.

Yuan Hong arrived in a flash and saw that the little demon's eyes were flashing with an eerie red.

However, as soon as Yuan Hong raised his hand and touched the little demon, the little demon screamed and exploded, its flesh and blood flying everywhere.

For a moment, the scene seemed to freeze.

Yang Jian couldn't help but gasp.

If he and Yuan Hong were not from the same school, what would he think of this at this moment?
Murder to silence witnesses, leaving no one to testify!
This means he and Yuan Hong will have to fight a bloody battle.

ruthless!
This move is too cruel.

First, some monsters disappeared from Meishan.

Then some monsters wreaked havoc near Guanjiang Estuary, burning, killing, looting, and harming people. They also abducted some women and claimed to be monsters from Meishan.

Then those women appeared near Meishan, and now this has happened...

Linked together!

Yuan Hong's face also turned ugly.

This move also took him by surprise.

He thought the same thing as Yang Jian. Luckily, the two brothers had communicated and made contact beforehand, otherwise Yang Jian would not have given him a chance to explain after this incident.

"Yuan Hong, you killed a demon to silence him, and you still say this isn't your doing?" Yang Jian shouted.

Yuan Hong, speechless, gritted his teeth and said, "I said it wasn't me, and it wasn't me."
You dare to slander me... take this!

He charged forward, swinging a steel rod as if he were enraged.

Yang Jian snorted and stepped forward to fight, but he felt inexplicably uncomfortable. He had gone to Yuquan Mountain and his weapon had expired.

At this moment, on a distant mountain cliff.

Two figures stood with their hands behind their backs, watching the two opposing forces in the distance, a smile playing on their lips.

Finally, the fight is about to begin!

The arrangements went quite smoothly, and could even be described as quite simple.

They intended to carry it out secretly, but unexpectedly, Yang Jian left Guanjiang Estuary and disappeared without a trace.

Isn't this just making things convenient for them?

At this moment, Yang Jian is defeated and will inevitably go to ask for reinforcements, so no matter how Yuan Hong calculates it, he is going to lose. When they come to his rescue in his time of need, won't Yuan Hong be completely devoted to him?

That's a brilliant plan!
"The situation seems to be unfavorable to Yang Jian."

"That's what the other person next to me said."

The figure in red glanced at him and frowned, saying, "Strange, why is Yang Jian hesitating to draw his weapon, only facing the enemy with his bare hands, yet still so fierce?"

at this time.

Yu Ding was still on his way, riding a three-headed dragon.

They almost transformed into a streak of lightning, traversing the sea of ​​clouds and rushing past beneath them.

"hurry up!"

The jade cauldron struck the three-headed dragon's head, producing a series of clanging metallic sounds.

Why don't you fly yourself... The three-headed dragon could only roll its eyes helplessly. I've already risked my life to fly, okay?

This guy has absolutely no idea how to take care of his mount.

Boom!

Yang Jian struck out with his palm, and Yuan Hong blocked it with his staff. A loud bang, like the collision of meteorites, erupted between the two, and a violent airflow spread out from all directions.

Have you spotted any suspicious targets?

While the loud noise created a completely isolated area in the center, Yuan Hong whispered.

Yang Jian shook his head: "No!"

"Use your Heavenly Eye!" Yuan Hong said anxiously.

Yang Jian said, "That would be too obvious. We might not be able to find it in one go, and I can't handle doing it multiple times. We'd just alert them."

Yuan Hong pondered for a moment and said, "Do you think the other side might show up if we both suffer heavy losses?"

“I think they might show up if you lose,” Yang Jian said after thinking for a moment.

Yuan Hong's expression darkened: "Just because I have no background, they're targeting me?"

Everyone knows how powerful Yang Jian's background is, so naturally no one would scheme against him.

That's infuriating!
Yang Jian said, "But it's very frustrating..."

"how?"

"I have no weapon, I can't beat you, and if I act too fake, the other side won't fall for it."

Where's your machete?

"Gone!"

Yuan Hong frowned: "This is a bit difficult."

With a sweep of his staff, Yang Jian caught the blow with his palm, and was knocked back with a thud, shaking his aching right hand.

A figure in white landed on a distant mountaintop.

"They still ended up fighting."

Yu Ding's expression darkened as he watched the figures locked in fierce combat.

At this moment, he had changed his appearance, transforming from the former immortal into a white-robed scholar who pulled out the jade hairpin given to him by Taiyi.

Therefore, at this moment, he is only at the True Immortal Realm.

The true realm of an immortal!

From a criminological perspective, many people go back to check after committing crimes, so he felt that if someone plotted to make Yang Jian and Yuan Hong fight, the other party was likely also nearby watching.

A fake Golden Immortal would definitely frighten the other party, so it's okay to use an alias; at least it won't make the other party wary.

"Oh, that kid can't beat his opponent," said the three-headed dragon.

Yu Ding nodded:
"He lacks a suitable weapon."

Three-pointed double-edged knife!

He remembered that Yang Jian found this weapon by chance on his way to ask Ju Liusun to deal with Tu Xingsun after the start of the Investiture of the Gods.

If I go now... I wonder if I'll be able to find it?
"Would you like me to help your apprentice?"

The three-headed dragon raised an eyebrow and said.

Yu Ding gave him a cold look.

The three-headed dragon immediately thought, "What I mean is that I can transform into a weapon to help him."

"weapon……"

Yu Ding raised an eyebrow and beckoned with his finger: "Come here!"

Then he whispered two sentences to the three dragons.

This guy is such a lecher and a coward!
"This weapon is a bit strange... cough, Master, don't misunderstand, I mean it's never changed. You can give it a try!"

The three-headed dragon transformed itself, a flash of silver light appeared, and a three-pointed, double-edged sword emerged, its cold light radiating outwards.

"Master, how are you doing?"

Yu Ding nodded slightly: "Helping Yang Jian is fine, but you are not allowed to hurt the other one."

This guy is also a celestial being, plus Yang Jian...

Yuan Hong's disciple couldn't withstand it.

He needs to stabilize the situation now and find a target before making any decisions. He doesn't know if the schemer is present.

"Without harming the disciple's opponent?"
This requires me to live my whole life…

The three-headed dragon was speechless, but under the pressure of the jade cauldron, it dared not say anything more. It could only transform into a silver light and soar into the sky, rushing towards the two people in the center of the battlefield.
