Zhu Xian: Get ten times the talent, the sword opens the gate of heaven

Chapter 151 Execution of Zhang Xiaofan

Cangsong felt the profound gaze of Taoist Master Daoxuan. He could never see through Daoxuan, but he only knew that Daoxuan's cultivation had become stronger and stronger over the years?

As for how strong he is, he felt that it was possible that he had even reached the Half-Step Taiqing realm.

As for reaching the Taiqing realm, Cangsong had never thought about it.

Because that is absolutely impossible. In the entire Qingyun Sect's two thousand years of history, only the brilliant Patriarch Qingye has reached the Taiqing realm.

As for who currently has the opportunity to reach the Taiqing realm, Master Cangsong has only one answer in his mind, and that is Zhang Xiaofan.

Although he disliked Zhang Xiaofan, he still recognized his talent for cultivation.

Apart from Patriarch Qingye, he had never seen anyone else in Qingyun Sect who had such talent.

Even his extremely respected senior brother Wan Jianyi could not compare to Zhang Xiaofan's talent in cultivation.

But Zhang Xiaofan didn't get along with him, otherwise he would definitely accept him as his disciple and teach him patiently, just to help him reproduce the style of his senior brother Wan Jianyi in the past.

Cangsong Zhenren was still quite afraid of Daoxuan Zhenren. Feeling Daoxuan Zhenren's deep gaze, he suddenly turned around and said, using the Qingyun Sect that Daoxuan Zhenren cared about the most:

"Master, I dare not make a decision for you, but the thousand-year reputation of Qingyun depends on you at this moment. I hope you will not be too partial to Zhang Xiaofan."

"Qingyun Sect's thousand-year reputation?"

Taoist Master Daoxuan murmured, then shook his head as he thought of the responsibilities he had as the head of Qingyun Sect.

Turning around and looking at the more than one hundred people in the hall, he was in a dilemma for a moment.

He wanted both Qingyun Sect's thousand-year reputation and Zhang Xiaofan, and it was difficult for him to make a decision.

Inside the hall, everyone's eyes were on Daoxuan, waiting for the answer from the master.

Taoist Master Daoxuan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, opened his eyes, and looked at Zhang Xiaofan in the hall below with a clear mind. He said:
"Zhang Xiaofan, in order to defend the reputation of Qingyun Sect for thousands of years, and to live up to the people's hearts, I, Daoxuan, as the head of Qingyun Sect, have to take drastic measures. Do you have any last words?"

After Taoist Master Daoxuan finished speaking, he stared at Zhang Xiaofan intently, because he knew that as soon as he said this, Tian Buyi and his wife would definitely come out to plead for mercy.

As if to confirm Taoist Master Daoxuan's words, as soon as Taoist Master Daoxuan finished speaking, Tian Buyi and his wife looked at him. When they were about to speak, a graceful figure suddenly walked out from the crowd and quickly came to Zhang Xiaofan.

Lu Xueqi came to Zhang Xiaofan, bowed to Taoist Master Daoxuan, and said:
"Master, Lu Xueqi from Xiaozhu Peak has something to say."

Taoist Master Daoxuan looked at Lu Xueqi and breathed a sigh of relief.

As for Zhang Xiaofan, he really didn't want to execute him.

For example, his junior fellow apprentice Wan Jianyi was so brilliant that he and he were known as the two most outstanding beauties in the world.

However, he and the elders executed Wan Jianyi that year, although he secretly saved Wan Jianyi in the end.

However, all the swords gathered in the ancestral temple are like a sword hidden in the snow underground, and their sharpness will not be revealed.

Look, he had already broken through to the Taiqing realm long ago, while his junior brother Wan Jianyi could never break through in his entire life.

If it weren't for Zhang Xiaofan, his junior brother Wan Jianyi would never have been able to reach the Half-Step Taiqing realm he is today, let alone break through to the Taiqing realm in twenty years.

Therefore, today, Zhang Xiaofan did not want to execute the other party.

Although he had made up his mind, even if he had to execute Zhang Xiaofan in public now, he would still save him secretly.

However, he was unwilling to do so. He did not want Zhang Xiaofan, who was even more talented, to be hidden away like Wan Jianyi was back then.

If that happens, he might end up like Wan Jianyi, and his future is cut off. Moreover, Zhang Xiaofan is not only gifted and highly skilled, but also extremely cunning and insightful, much stronger than his only direct disciple Xiao Yicai.

Although Xiao Yicai is experienced in dealing with people, his cultivation is not enough, and he may not even be able to control the Six Peaks in the future.

Only Zhang Xiaofan is the best candidate for the next leader. Daoxuan wants to train Zhang Xiaofan as the next leader.

Therefore, he cannot execute Zhang Xiaofan today, because a dead person cannot be alive and become the leader again, just like Wan Jianyi, who can only live in the dark and cannot appear in front of the world.

However, Daoxuan did not expect that the first person to plead for mercy was Lu Xueqi from Xiaozhu Peak.

He also knew that this female disciple had amazing talent. Among the more than a thousand disciples in Qingyun, except for Zhang Xiaofan, Lu Xueqi had the most outstanding talent, even better than himself in his time.

With his vision over hundreds of years, it was enough for him to see that Lu Xueqi was deeply in love with Zhang Xiaofan.

Well, the most talented female disciple is paired with the most talented male disciple, a perfect match.

A few decades later, if both of them break through the Taiqing realm, there will be no rivals in the entire cultivation world, and Qingyun Sect’s position as the leader of the righteous path will be as solid as a rock.

Thinking of this, Taoist Master Daoxuan stroked his long, neat black beard with one hand behind his back and said:

"But it doesn't matter."

Lu Xueqi kept her hands clasped in a gesture of respect to Taoist Master Daoxuan, and then said:
"Master, fellow masters, brothers and sisters, I don't have a close relationship with Zhang Xiaofan, but I saw with my own eyes that when Junior Brother Zhang was destroying the Demon Sect in the Ancient Cave of Ten Thousand Bats and Liupo Mountain, he fought to the death with the demons of the Demon Sect."

"The beautiful woman of the Demon Cult and many demons of the Demon Cult died at the hands of Junior Brother Zhang. Even the old blood-sucking demon who had been famous for hundreds of years was seriously injured by Junior Brother Zhang."

"Let me ask you, how could Junior Brother Zhang, who did these things, be in collusion with the Demon Cult?"

At this point, Lu Xueqi said firmly:
"Master, fellow masters, please look into the matter of Junior Brother Zhang again. I, Lu Xueqi, am willing to use my life as a guarantee that Junior Brother Zhang is definitely not a spy of the Demon Sect."

Upon hearing this, Taoist Master Daoxuan thought that this female disciple Lu Xueqi was not only extremely talented, but her words were also well-reasoned, showing that she was extremely intelligent.

However, you said that you and Zhang Xiaofan don’t have a close relationship. But I can see that you have deep feelings for Zhang Xiaofan, so how can others not see it?

Nowadays, young people can tell lies without blushing or feeling breathless.

Zhang Xiaofan was deeply moved when he saw Lu Xueqi, who was standing beside him and pleading for him with her life as a guarantee.

Only when people are in dire straits can they see who is the most kind and true to them.

And at this moment, he is about to be executed, which is the time to see through people's hearts.

Lu Xueqi was able to plead for him with her life at this time, and she was worthy of being the wife he had already designated as his first wife.

Not only is her figure, face, and talent amazing, but her character is also the best.

At this time, Lin Jingyu also ran out from the Longshou Peak disciples, came to Zhang Xiaofan and knelt on the ground, saying:

"Disciple Lin Jingyu and Zhang Xiaofan grew up together. I know best whether he is a spy from the Demon Cult. I am also willing to use my life to guarantee that Zhang Xiaofan is definitely not a spy from the Demon Cult."

At this time, Song Daren, Tian Ling'er, and Zeng Shushu also walked out of the crowd, knelt in the hall, bowed to Taoist Master Daoxuan, and said in unison:

"I am willing to use my life as a guarantee that Zhang Xiaofan is definitely not a spy from the Demonic Cult."

At this time, Qi Hao looked at his master fearfully, then looked at Zhang Xiaofan, gritted his teeth, and finally knelt in the hall, bowed and said:

"Master, I, the disciple Qi Hao, am also willing to use my life as a guarantee that Junior Brother Zhang is definitely not a spy of the Demon Sect."
