Taoist Master Xuanhuang

Chapter 52 Untitled
  Xiadu Town Evil Department Headquarters.

The rare ministers, deputy ministers, and experts are all there.

"Is the news online true?"

Asked Bi Xia, the head of the headquarters of Daxia Suppression Department.

An old Taoist replied: "I asked fellow Taoist Ma in Nanshi, and this is true. Fellow Taoist Ma said that he had another surprise, but it is not convenient to say for the time being. Taoist Ma wants me to go there, and the old Taoist is still thinking about it."

The person who replied was one of the three strange people of Taoism, Confucianism and Buddhism in the headquarters, the Taoist Master of the Nine Paths.

"Why didn't Xu Ruyi report to us?"

First Deputy Minister Zhao Zhengdao.

There are many masters in the headquarters of the Suppression of Evil Department. The three deputy ministers and the minister are all third-level masters. Including the dragon master, there are five on the surface.

"Xu Ruyi said that he didn't know either. If it hadn't been exposed on the Internet, he would still have been kept in the dark."

Second Deputy Minister Han Wudao.

"How is Xu Ruyi managing? His subordinates won't report such information to him. Is he too comfortable as a minister?"

The third deputy minister Tang Zong scolded.

Han Wu was silent for a while: "It was deliberately concealed by Deputy Minister Jia Zhengyi of Nan City. In addition, Jia Zhengyi suppressed Xuanhuang. There is also evidence that this person asked Qi Long to assassinate Xuanhuang, but both Qi Long and Jia Zhengyi disappeared. , and then it was exposed.”

After saying this, none of the senior officials present spoke lightly.

Although Han Wu's words may not seem like much, everyone understands their meaning.

Not only are there a group of spiritual masters in Nan City who are afraid that the rise of Xianwu will threaten their status as spiritual masters, but there are also many in the headquarters.

It cannot be said that they are completely afraid of the rise of Xianwu.

What they care about is not these, but the difference in philosophy.

One is the guardian faction, and the other is the strong faction.

The Guardians are such a class of people. They love without boundaries, treat everyone equally, and do their best to protect the ethnic group, even without thinking of anything in return.

The strong faction pursues the survival of the fittest through natural selection and will not sacrifice themselves for ordinary people.

It doesn't matter if they lose a little profit, but if it involves something major, especially if it involves a loss of profit to themselves, they will not care about ordinary people's lives and deaths.

Strictly speaking, even the strong faction has nothing to complain about in the current environment.

It is impossible for everyone to be aboveboard and selfless, everyone has their own selfishness.

A small profit can help a lot of people, so that's okay.

But it’s impossible for me to sacrifice a lot to help others.

Those who are truly "not a human being" like Jia Zhengyi are actually a minority in the Suppression of Evil Department.

Of course, because of Jia Zhengyi's dual identity as one of the leaders of the cult, it is normal to do this.

So if you put it into pieces, even the spiritual masters of the strong sect are not bad people.

Real bad guys and evil people have long joined various cults, or have become casual cultivators themselves. Who can join the Ministry of Suppression of Evil?

No matter what, those who join the Evil Suppression Department have some thoughts of saving the world.

There really isn't much difference between the two.

but.

Once it comes to different ideas, people suddenly become strange, as if a little difference is the enemy of life and death.

At this moment, after Han Wu finished speaking, everyone who understood the meaning remained silent.

They are afraid that what they say will become the target of attack by other factions.

"Minister, Master Long, deputy ministers, ladies and gentlemen. We humans have opened up a new extraordinary path, which must be taken seriously. All ministers and sirs are busy. Why don't I go to Nanshi with Master Minghui and Mr. Yan Lai? , how about seeing for yourself this 'Master Xuan' who is questioned and respected?"

The head of the Ninth Channel decided to go.

Regardless of what fellow Taoist Taoist Master Ma said, or his own path, now that he has a direction, he must go and explore it himself. Heaven does not like such people if they don’t work hard for their own future.

"Yes, no matter what, it is my new path to transcendence as a human being. This person can be called a 'mysterious master'."

Master Long, who had been silent, said.

"Everyone, no matter what our ideals are, when we gather together, we have the heart to help the people of the world. There are more and more weird things, and the world is changing every day. Fellow Taoists, please put aside the debate on ideals and look forward first. Don't look back. .”

Bi Xia stood up and raised his hands to Master Long and said, "Everyone, Master Long is right. Discord in ideas is just an idea. Is everyone's desire and expectation to join the Evil Suppression Department still there? Don't forget it!"

Zhao Zheng replied: "The minister is serious. I, Zhao, joined the Evil Suppression Department just for Daxia and this ethnic group. The ancients said that the emperor is loyal and patriotic, and I scoffed at it before. But I agree now, but this king is not that king, this king is This nation, this country. I think I am 'loyal to the king'."

Han Wu smiled: "Minister Zhao is really eloquent. You are so 'loyal to the emperor', how can you bear to exchange a few people for nearly ten thousand people? Aren't these ten thousand people human beings?"

Tang Zong retorted: "Minister Han's words are wrong. Minister Zhao just doesn't want to sacrifice in vain. Since nothing can be done, retaining the strong is also to better protect the weak."

"Haha, it's impossible to do anything. It's obvious that as long as you work hard, you can save nearly ten thousand people. I'm not stubborn and indifferent to right and wrong. If there is a real life crisis and several spiritual masters tactically retreat, I won't say anything, but there is obviously a chance. , nothing more than a little loss..."

"Okay everyone, stop it. We won't discuss this today."

Minister Bi Xia stopped Han Wu's words, although he thought Han Wu was right.

Bi Xia said: "Since the Nine Channel Masters, Master Minghui, and Mr. Yan Lai are willing to go, it will be troublesome for the three of them."

"Don't worry, sirs. The three of us will definitely investigate carefully."

"Okay, let's break up the meeting."

Bi Xia stopped neatly.

Otherwise, it will definitely deviate from the purpose of this meeting and enter a battle between two theories.

Master Long shook his head helplessly and said nothing further.

It was just an acknowledgment that Xuanhuang was honored as 'Master Xuan'.

……

In a dark cave, the cave was in a mess.

There are three lifelike dolls placed in a conspicuous place, and there are many mutilated limbs and dried blood around them, and their ferocious expressions look particularly penetrating.

In the center of the cave, a middle-aged man was sitting cross-legged with several medicine bottles beside him.

Among them was the ‘divine blood’ that Xuanhuang knew.

Trembling suddenly, the middle-aged man opened his eyes.

"Xuanhuang, you will die miserably."

This person is none other than 'Jia Zhengyi', or Gou Jianren, the master of the devil's puppet hall.

"What kind of method is this? Even my soul is imprisoned and there is no chance of escape."

Gou Jianren is scared to think about it now.

It's not like I haven't encountered a puppet being killed before, but it was just the puppet that died and couldn't hurt him, so the loss was not big.

But this time, he was surrounded and killed by Xuan Huang, but even his soul was destroyed.

It was almost half a month later, and he had exhausted almost all the means he had accumulated to save his life, and then he stabilized his soul.

During this period, the puppet acted strangely and almost completely lost control, which was extremely dangerous.

This caused him to disappear for half a month. News about Xuanhuang spread, and he had yet to report the situation to the Devil Believers Church.

"Hmph, it's a pity that you want to kill me. I am patient and believe in being patient, stable and patient. The person who wants to kill me has not yet been born."

"I even want to thank you. After this crisis, I will go one step further. Xuanhuang will wait for death."

After saying that, I saw Gou Jianren changing rapidly. There was only one puppet sitting cross-legged in the cave, and the real person disappeared.
