Chongming Xianzong

Chapter 371 Three Battles
"Hey, second brother, this one can't escape either." After Jiang Qing, Yuan Jin and the others met, he pointed at the embarrassed foundation-building figure beside him and said with a relaxed smile.

Behind him were Xiu Ming and Wang Wu, who he had taken over as they passed by earlier. As for the Yuan family's special forces that attacked the Qiaogong Fort team, they had all fallen under Jiang Qing's sword.

He just drew and put away his sword, and then there were a dozen thumb-sized storage bags hanging on his waist, colorful and quite messy.

The foundation-building warrior captured by Jiang Qing had a red spot on his forehead, and his injuries were much lighter than those of the blood shadow foundation-building warrior who had fought with Kang and Duan. Hearing the two men's laughter and chat, he was naturally indignant, so at this time, relying on the remaining strength, he shouted and cursed:

"Don't be so complacent, one-armed man. When my ancestor annihilates the Zheng family and takes over Baisha County, none of you cowardly rats who are willing to serve as the hawks and dogs of the Immortal Dynasty will survive."

As soon as this guy finished speaking, the cheerful atmosphere in the room suddenly stagnated.

Yuan Jin's face was filled with anger, while Jiang Qing's eyes were cold. Before the two elders could lower their status and refute, Kang Rongquan took the opportunity to say, "You are a son of the Yuan family, why are you pretending to be a member of the Yuan family?"

Red Spot Foundation Building suddenly changed color, and was about to retort, but heard Kang Rongquan say again: "Don't flatter yourself. When my great-uncle takes my grandmother to visit the Yuan family in Jingnan, I'm afraid they will have to sit at the main table. Wouldn't it be better for you, a filthy fellow, to get closer to Yuan Buwen?"

"Rongquan, please speak properly." When it comes to matters involving elders, some words may be inappropriate. Duan Anle felt that it was inappropriate, so he pulled Kang Rongquan's sleeve and whispered.

Unexpectedly, Yuan and Jiang both laughed when they saw the red-spotted foundation-building man being choked by Kang Rongquan, but although they were happy, they did not put down their business.

Yuan Jin took out a ruler with a cold face, and with just two "snap" strokes, he pulled out two rows of the red-spotted teeth.

"If you can't talk, then keep quiet. I don't want to take your life yet, so don't try to seduce me!"

Yuan Jin turned his wrist, and a wisp of clean air floated over, attached to the ruler, and cleaned away all the dirty blood. He spoke with more hatred than before, which made the red-spotted foundation-building person look even more embarrassed, and he was so scared that he immediately buried his head.

Jiang Qing actually felt happy in his heart, but he just shook his head and said, "He's just a clown. Why should Second Senior Brother care about him?"

Yuan Jin didn't answer with a cold face, but just asked: "Did the thieves who came in all this time discover these two waves?"

Jiang Qing frowned and replied calmly, "In a short period of time, we have only found these two groups, and their methods are sparse. If the Yuan family really wants to send people to harass the border area between the two states, they should have selected elite troops. This is a bit confusing."

Yuan Jin changed his tone to a low one, and said softly: "I didn't understand it at first, but when I thought about why the eldest brother wanted to call us brothers back at this time, I seemed to understand it a little bit."

Jiang Qing's face became serious, and then he looked a little surprised.

Kang Rongquan didn't understand, but Duan Anle figured out something. "Master asked Rongquan and I to come back with my two uncles to clear out the Yuan family monks who had sneaked in. He probably wanted to prevent us from suffering losses on the battlefield of Laoniu Mountain.

In other words, Master knows that the Yuan family sent out mediocre people, and no difficult characters. Then, is the Jingnan Yuan family just going through the motions? And Master, it seems that you also know about this matter?"

"I don't know what the situation is like on Laoniu Mountain now?" Jiang Qing sighed lightly, and with a flick of his finger, a stream of light appeared on the Red Heart and Burning Sun Sword, which was very dazzling and beautiful.

"Big Brother said that there are enough people waiting to die, so the situation will become clearer." Yuan Jin knew that Jiang Qing was regretting not catching up with the fierce battle. After he established his foundation, his temperament was not as violent as before, and he advised:
"Don't think too much about the pleasure of revenge. The eldest brother is already very busy. He has been delayed a lot in taking care of the sect affairs and his own cultivation. Don't let him worry about you. We will do whatever the eldest brother asks us to do."

"Okay, Junior Brother, I understand." Jiang Qing pondered for a while and sheathed his sword.

After telling Jiang Qing, Yuan Jin turned around and talked to Xiuming and Wang Wu: "It's too dangerous for the two of you to go alone. Brother Ming and this little friend Wang can follow us. I will go and talk to Daoist Fellow Mo Wen. I will definitely not let you get scolded."

"Thank you for your care, uncle/senior."

Xiuming naturally agreed without hesitation. His family had a deep connection with the Chongming Sect, so he was naturally happy to spend more time with the two elders whom he rarely saw in daily life.

After all, the three disciples of Master He's branch all had some of his generous and unrestrained personality. Even Master Kang, who was the most calculating, was an impeccable person in the eyes of outsiders. Xiuming knew that he could enjoy some benefits by following these elders.

Wang Wu felt quite embarrassed when he expressed his gratitude. He was obviously a few years older than Yuan Jin, but he became a younger friend in the latter's mouth, which was awkward.

Yuan Jin did not notice the strange look in Wang Wu's eyes, and just turned to instruct the disciples:
"In any case, we need to complete the task that the eldest brother has assigned to you and me first. Let's rest here for a while to prevent others from sneaking out of the fence. There should be no rush over Laoniu Mountain. It won't take long for news to reach us."

Duan and Kang didn't dare to say a word, but Jiang Qing had been accustomed to the arrangements made by his two senior brothers since he was a child, so he nodded and agreed.

The group found a low mountain, and four youngsters volunteered to use all kinds of magical instruments to carve out a rough outline, and used several Taoist techniques to carve out a cave.

Yuan Jin assigned corresponding duties to the four people, while he and Jiang Qing focused on practicing.

His future was not bright when his foundation was in the green stage, but his foundation after building the foundation was solid enough among people of the same level. This was also the reason why the head of Kangda agreed to let Yuan Jin and Jiang Qing go to Laoniu Mountain together.

Compared to Ye Zhengwen who had established his foundation earlier, it was more reassuring to leave Yuan Jin here.

Although the former was not weak among the same level, he would definitely not be able to accomplish the formation-killing foundation-building thing. On a battlefield of that level at Laoniu Mountain, Jiang Qing might have to be distracted to take care of him, which was contrary to the original intention of the head of Kangda.

But while the two of them were concentrating on discussing the Dao, they couldn't help but feel worried.

"I don't know how the conversation between Senior Brother and Yuan Buwen went?"

————Dingzhou Camp

"I don't know what Kang Dabao wants to discuss with Yuan Buwen?"

Yue Jing, who was rumored to be seriously injured, was looking at the raging battlefield in the distance with a red face. Tie Liuyun stood beside him and responded with disdain: "It's just a clown. Senior Yue, don't take it to heart."

Yue Jing looked at the broken arms and limbs, blood and flesh flying freely on the battlefield, but a faint smile appeared on his face: "Tie Chenshi, there are only a few cultivators in the entire Yunjiao Province who can be favored by the Earl. I am afraid that they can be taken care of with just one palm. I advise you not to underestimate Kang Dabao. It will not benefit our family."

Although Yue Jing's words were calm and indifferent, as if there was no intention of reproach at all, Tie Liuyun still looked serious after hearing them, and responded respectfully: "What the senior is teaching is that it is of no benefit to us to look down on Kang Dabao."

Yue Jing raised his eyebrows slightly, his smile became even lighter, and he continued with his previous words: "In my opinion, it is nothing more than coercion and inducement.

If Kang Dabao can also pull the Jingnan Yuan family from Liangyi Sect, and if the golden elixir cannot be produced, I am afraid that no one will be able to stop the offensive of Yunjiaozhou Court. "

"Kang Dabao is indeed capable of using Yuan Xiyue to threaten the Yuan family, but what else can he use to bribe the Yuan family?" Tie Liuyun's words were full of doubt.

Yue Jing did not explain clearly, but shook his head and said softly: "I don't know about this. Maybe if we take a golden elixir from the state court, it will be enough to seduce Yuan Buwen to defect."

Yue Jing's words made Tie Liuyun nervous, because even in the Yunjiao state, there must not be many golden elixirs.

If the Yuan family really lets take one away, then wouldn’t Tie Liuyun’s chances of getting this spiritual object be even lower?

Not to mention that if the Yuan family was recruited, wouldn't the achievements in the direction of Jingnan Prefecture be more impressive than those in the direction of Dingzhou? Tie Liuyun had finally gained a slight advantage in the conflict between the natives and the Hakkas while Fei Nan'ao was in seclusion, but wouldn't he be overshadowed by Kang Dabao soon?
Tie Liuyun's heart hardened, and his tone became even more fierce, saying bluntly: "Absolutely not! Senior, this is absolutely not possible!"

Yue Jing took in Tie Liuyun's slightly insane look and sighed in his heart:
"Back then, Tie Liuyun was such a smart and capable person that he could be considered a capable official among the officials of the Xian Dynasty in the entire Shannan Road. But now, because of something that involves the Dan Formation, he has lost his reason and his heart. How sad and ridiculous is that?"

However, Yue Jing did not think this was a bad thing. After all, a loyal dog without a brain was the most useful. As long as the big plan was successful, he did not mind helping Tie Liuyun.

After all, the Xiezhi Iron Guard trained by the latter was enough to make the Yue family of Hancheng invest heavily and seriously win them over.

"In that case, Mr. Tie, we should not hold back." Yue Jing emphasized these dozen words. A look of pity appeared on Tie Liuyun's face, and he called Tie Xishui over to hold the token.

After the latter left the camp, a team with bright armor and Xiezhi waist badges appeared on the battlefield. They only had a hundred people, but all of them were in the late stage of Qi training, all had the same weapons and the same Taoism.

But they were seen arranged in order, forming the shape of a Xiezhi in the open space. Only a hundred of them practiced Qi and formed a formation, but at the front of the formation they had already formed a Xiezhi image several meters high.

This giant beast has thick, long, dark hair all over its body and a golden horn on its forehead, and it looks majestic even without being angry.

With just one loud roar, the hearts of both sides, who were fighting fiercely, trembled at the same time.

In this way, it can be seen who has a stronger character and can gain the upper hand. In just such a short moment, at least dozens of cultivators have gained great benefits. They use all kinds of means at will, and in a few moves, they can easily defeat the tough opponents.

At this time, among the cultivators in Dingzhou, there were two fake Dan from Hongyi Sect, who frowned when they saw the Xiezhi Dharma Image. They thought to themselves, "Tie Liuyun has trained this Taoist army well over the years, no wonder he is rarely alone in the court of Yunjiaozhou, and even dares to provoke a figure like Fei Nanying."

No one could control the sudden appearance of the Xiezhi Dharma image for a moment.

This was because the foundation-building masters from various families who were recruited were all in a loose group and no one could stop them. The ten foundation-building masters from the Hongyi Sect formed a formation to resist, but they only lasted for ten breaths before the second-level formation was blasted into pieces of gravel by the Xiezhi Dharma Image.

The ten foundation-building cultivators were horrified and immediately scattered like birds and beasts, exposing the weaker Qi-cultivating cultivators to the minions of the Xiezhi Dharmakāya.

The two fake Dan wanted to make a move, but they were afraid that Yue Jing was lurking in the dark, determined to lure the two out to make money from them, so they could only make the low-level disciples in the field suffer and let the huge Xiezhi Dharma image show off its power in the field.

Yue Jing thought it was a pity when he saw this. If the two really believed that he was faking his injury, then at least he could get one back. Then he turned his eyes to Tie Liuyun who was repeatedly urging the Xiezhi Iron Guards and shouting at them.

He thought to himself that all the delicacies that the latter had saved by digging deep into the ground in Yunjiao Province over the years were really put to good use. Otherwise, it would be impossible for his Taoist army to be so powerful.

Family members know their own business. It is impossible that Tie Liuyun has dared to compete with people like Fei Nanying over the years just by relying on the power of the Yue family.

You have to know that his own leaf rank is only Qingye, and his cultivation technique is only the lower level of Hongjie. Even his cultivation to the peak of foundation building was achieved after he came from the provincial court, using the real benefits he gained by exploiting various families.

However, such conditions can only be regarded as insignificant among the fellow foundation-building practitioners.

This Xiezhi Iron Guard is the result of his hard work. It is also the capital for him to make a living and achieve the goal of forming an elixir. Naturally, he cannot help but pay close attention to it.

Every monk in this team was carefully selected by him, and it took him nearly sixty years of hard work to finally take shape. He would be heartbroken if any of them was lost.

This is also the fundamental reason why Tie Liuyun was reluctant to send his elite troops into the battlefield.

At this time, in Yue Jing's sight, one neat and rigorous square formation after another was broken by the Xiezhi Iron Guards, and other teams under the jurisdiction of the state court followed suit, becoming high-spirited and fearless, killing the Dingzhou monks and making them fall to the ground with their horses and flags in disarray.

However, the two fake Dan from Hongyi Sect still acted like turtles and urged the team to turn back, thus abandoning this key node in Dingzhou.

Yue Jing sheathed his sword and suppressed the murderous intent in his heart.

There was a hint of indifference in his old eyes, and he only thought to himself: "When the great event is accomplished soon, I will block you all at the gate of Hongyi Gate and kill you all, which will be the same."

——Outside Laoniushan
"Zhu Tong, Fei Liu, and Gun Shilu can stay. The rest of you can leave immediately. I am discussing something with Kang Dabao, and it is not your turn to listen."

Yuan Buwen faced thousands of soldiers alone with a halberd, but he did not show any sign of cowardice. Instead, he shouted loudly, as if he regarded the two fake pills, dozens of foundation-building cultivators, and one or two thousand cultivators in the field as nothing.

"You..." Zhu Tong was furious and was about to fight back, but she heard Yuan Buwen shouting loudly on the other end:

"If you, a fair-faced man from the Imperial Capital, dare to move, I will chop off your head before I leave."

The conversation paused here. Yuan Buwen pointed at Sixth Granny and Gun Shilu, then spoke softly and indifferently, "The two of them can't protect you. Do you believe it or not?!"

Zhu Tong's heart immediately went cold and his expression suddenly became extremely ugly. He was expecting Fei and Gun to say something, but he saw that the two of them looked solemn and as if facing a great enemy because of Yuan Buwen's words. He then understood 70% of what Yuan Buwen said.

He was a bachelor, so he just shouted loudly: "The rest of you retreat!"

"Wait!" Yuan Buwen's face turned even colder, and he suddenly spoke. He pointed at the three people whose names had just been called, "I've changed my mind, you guys get out too."

"Yuan Buwen, don't go too far! If we all leave, do you think you can still save this kid's life?" Although Sixth Granny still disliked Master Kang, she had to protect her own son-in-law in front of outsiders and would never leave him in Yuan Buwen's hands.

Yuan Buwen shouted coldly, and the cold light on his halberd seemed to pierce everyone's eyebrows through the air, causing a dull pain: "You don't have to leave. This kid Kang is indeed harder to kill than the rude and rebellious young man before. You can try to save him from the edge of my halberd."

Kang Dabao never thought that Gun Jia Sima, with whom he had a good relationship before, remained silent, but it was this old lady who had some grudges against him before who came out to speak for him.

He immediately felt grateful to the old woman and said respectfully, "Grandma, please go back first. I know the pros and cons. Senior Yuan is famous in several states and will not hurt a young man like me who has no reputation. If I tell others about it, I will be laughed at."

With the stairs, Zhu Tong only whispered to be careful and turned around; the fake Sima still said nothing; only the Sixth Granny glanced at the head of Kang Da, and her tone was not good when she spoke: "He knows that he has given face to my Sheshan Hall, so of course he dare not touch you."

The Sixth Granny felt that this warning was not enough, so she turned her head, looked directly at Yuan Buwen and said coldly: "It's okay to just do a little bit of fighting, but Fellow Daoist Yuan, you should know your limits."

The latter's tone did not improve either, and he also retorted: "You can't say that, fellow Daoist. You'd better wait until your Fei Nan'an has completed the Dan Formation before you come to scare me."

"well."

The pursuit team from Zhou Ting came quickly and left quickly. Except for Gun Shilu and Liu Po ​​Po who did not go far, the others disappeared in just a cup of tea.

"You are braver than I thought." Yuan Buwen's tone was still bad as usual, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he started with praise.

"Thank you for your compliment, senior. I was not able to meet you last time. Today is just the right time, and I am fortunate enough to receive your teachings in person." Kang Dabao's cheerful and cheerful temperament returned as usual, but he was complaining in his heart. If he had known that Yuan Buwen was such a fool, he should have concealed his shortcomings.

"Slippery tongue is not what a man should do." Yuan Buwen frowned and said, "Return Xiyue to me, and I will withdraw my troops."

"Once you accept the amnesty and withdraw your clan soldiers, Xiyue will be able to return home to visit her relatives." Kang Dabao responded calmly without any panic.

"Oh, do you really think I can't kill you?" Yuan Buwen raised the short spear in his hand a little higher. The Sixth Granny in the distance couldn't help but wanted to rescue her, but was stopped by Gun Shilu, who hurriedly said, "Senior, don't panic."

"Senior Yuan, why are you unwilling to serve the provincial court?" Sect Leader Kang was still not afraid and asked out loud.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Buwen immediately showed disdain on his face: "Ha, you youngsters, how could you know how heartless and disloyal the Kuang family is? How can you believe it?"

"Can the Liangyi Sect believe it?" Yuan Buwen was unwilling to answer Kang Dabao's question. He put away his short spear and pretended to leave. He turned his back and said loudly, "It doesn't matter. If you don't want to send it now, I will kill a few more fake Dans and make Kuang Liuting feel distressed. Then he will let you send the Xiyue Gift back."

"Senior, even if I send Xiyue back, will Liangyi Sect really agree to let the nobles give up a golden elixir? Even if it means sending it to the Great Snow Mountain to be a decoration?!"

Yuan Buwen stopped and looked straight at Kang Dabao, like a tiger about to be released from a cage, which made the latter shudder and almost think that he had said something wrong.

At this juncture, he plucked up the courage to shout again: "I can guarantee that my uncle has such a broad mind and is happy to see the Yuan family produce a real elixir to keep Jingnan forever."

".Heh, you kid"
