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

After the group from Burning Incense Valley flew away, hundreds of independent cultivators also took their leave.

Dao Xuan originally intended to extend hospitality to the hundreds of rogue cultivators, but they insisted on leaving.

After the hundreds of rogue cultivators left, Master Puhong came to Daoxuan's side and said:
"Amitabha! The Beast God has escaped with serious injuries, and the beast tide has receded. This old monk should take his leave now!"

Upon hearing this, Dao Xuan glanced at the many young monks behind Master Pu Hong, who were now only half the number they had been when they arrived.

You should know that these young monks are the elite of Tianyin Temple.

In this great battle, Tianyin Temple also paid a heavy price.

Dao Xuan bowed respectfully and said:
"Master Puhong, why don't you leave another day? Let the Qingyun Sect entertain you again, what do you think?"

Master Puhong shook his head and said:

"I have been away from Tianyin Temple for a long time. I fear that the Demonic Church may take advantage of this to launch a sneak attack on Tianyin Temple. I must rush back!"

Upon hearing this, Dao Xuan Zhenren nodded and said:

"Alright, Master, please take care on your journey!"

"Amitabha!"

Master Puhong chanted a Buddhist prayer and then turned to leave.

"Master Puhong!"

Just then, Zhang Xiaofan's voice rang out.

Upon hearing this, Master Puhong immediately turned around and saw Zhang Xiaofan standing nearby. Looking at the tall Zhang Xiaofan before him, Master Puhong smiled kindly and said gently:
"Benefactor Zhang, please stop this old monk. What brings you here?"

Looking at Master Puhong before him, Zhang Xiaofan thought of the fourth volume of the Heavenly Book and said:

“Master, you are seriously injured, and most of your disciples are also wounded. If I were from the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, the Joyful Union Sect, or the Ghost King Sect, I would definitely ambush you on the way.”

Master Puhong's expression changed upon hearing this.

He felt that Zhang Xiaofan's words made sense.

Moreover, at this moment, Master Puhong did not regard Zhang Xiaofan as a demonic cultist at all, but as if he were one of his own kind.

Strictly speaking, Zhang Xiaofan learned the Great Brahma Prajna, and it was taught to him by his junior brother, the monk Puzhi. At the time of the teaching, Zhang Xiaofan even called him "master".

Therefore, Zhang Xiaofan can be considered a disciple of Tianyin Temple, and even a core disciple.

Master Puhong thought for a moment and said:

"But what if the Demonic Sect launches a sneak attack on Tianyin Temple if we don't go back?"

"Benefactor Zhang suddenly called out to this old monk; surely you already have a plan? According to Benefactor Zhang's suggestion, what should we do?"

Zhang Xiaofan replied:

"Why don't you take your fellow disciples from Tianyin Temple to stay at Tongtian Peak today, rest for a day, and get rid of the fatigue from today's battle so that you can properly recover from your injuries?"

"I will personally escort the master and his fellow practitioners back to Tianyin Temple early tomorrow morning."

Upon hearing this, Master Puhong was filled with a myriad of thoughts.

With Zhang Xiaofan's current strength at the Taiqing realm, and being a member of the Buddhist, Taoist, and Demonic schools of thought, coupled with his top-tier Nine Heavens Divine Weapon, the Blood Soul Sword, and various other supernatural abilities...

With Zhang Xiaofan escorting their injured group, and with Zhang Xiaofan being a top-tier combatant, even if the Demonic Sect were to ambush them, they would have nothing to fear.

Moreover, staying at Qingyun Sect for just one more day is not a long time.

Thinking of this, Master Puhong put his hands together and said:
“Amitabha, then let us do as Benefactor Zhang says.”

"In that case, this old monk will stay here at Tianyin Temple to express his gratitude to Benefactor Zhang."

Remembering that he still needed to obtain the fourth volume of the Heavenly Book from Master Puhong, Zhang Xiaofan waved his hand and smiled:

"No need to thank me, we're all on the same side."

“One of our own…” Master Puhong was taken aback, wondering if Zhang Xiaofan’s words meant that he considered him half a member of Tianyin Temple because he had received the Great Brahma Prajna from his junior brother Puzhi…

Thinking of this, Master Puhong was overjoyed and smiled:

"Yes, yes, they're on our side!"

Seeing this, Dao Xuan Zhenren joked, "Master Pu Hong, I wouldn't even let you stay one more day, but Zhang Xiaofan said it would be fine immediately. It seems Zhang Xiaofan has more influence than me."

“Amitabha!” Master Puhong replied.
"Whether it's Dao Xuan Zhenren or Benefactor Zhang, they are both members of the Qingyun Sect, there is no distinction between you and me."

"Yes, yes!" Dao Xuan Zhenren stroked his long, black beard and said:
"Yicai, take the master and the fellow practitioners of Tianyin Temple to rest."

"Yes, Master!"

Xiao Yicai responded and then left with Master Puhong.

At this moment, Dao Xuan Zhenren suddenly trembled violently, and a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

Tian Buyi immediately noticed, looked at Dao Xuan Zhenren, and called out worriedly:
"Senior Brother Head!"

"It's alright!" Dao Xuan Zhenren stretched out his large hand and said:
"I am still recovering from serious internal injuries, so I will go down first. You may all return to your respective peaks!"

After saying this, Dao Xuan Zhenren turned and left, his steps not as steady as usual, but rather slightly hurried.

Tian Buyi watched Dao Xuan Zhenren's departing figure with worry in his eyes, but he was helpless.

He shook his head, looked at Zhang Xiaofan, and smiled:
"Seventh Brother, you will be escorting Master Puhong back to Tianyin Temple tomorrow, so you should return to Dazhu Peak today!"

"Okay!" Zhang Xiaofan nodded.

Upon seeing this, Tian Buyi was overjoyed and waved his hand, saying:
"Let's all go back to Dazhu Peak!"

Having said that, the Crimson Flame Sword flew to within three feet of him, and he lightly leaped onto it.
The Blazing Sword trembled slightly, carrying Tian Buyi into the sky.

Su Ru rode on a divine weapon from the heavens, with Mo Xue following beside her.

Next were six senior brothers, including Song Daren and Du Bishu.

Tian Ling'er didn't fly away immediately. Instead, she stepped onto the amber-red silk, reached out her hand to Zhang Xiaofan, and said with a charming smile:

"Xiao Fan, let me take you home, just like always!"

"it is good!"

Zhang Xiaofan responded and looked at Lu Xueqi, only to find her staring at him blankly.

Zhang Xiaofan smiled and nodded, then turned to Yan Hong and said:

"Yan Hong, let's go home together, to Dazhu Peak!"

Having said that, he leaped onto the amber-red silk robe and naturally wrapped his arms around Tian Ling'er's slender waist.

Tian Ling'er smiled knowingly, and the amber red ribbon carried the two of them towards Dazhu Peak.

"Family?"

As Yan Hong listened to Zhang Xiaofan's words, it was the first time she had heard the word "home" since her parents died when she was a child.

Moreover, she discovered that unlike the other six branches of the Qingyun Sect with hundreds of disciples, Dazhu Peak only had a handful of eight disciples, including herself.

Besides them, there were Tian Buyi and his wife, and Tian Ling'er.

In addition, she observed carefully and found that Tian Buyi and his wife treated their disciples very well.

In this scene, Dazhu Peak doesn't seem like a single lineage, but rather more like a family.

Yan Hong smiled, leaped into the air, and caught up with Tian Ling'er and Zhang Xiaofan. The three of them flew towards Dazhu Peak...

……

night!
Dazhu Peak, the back mountain, is densely forested, and a pool of water appears in the forest.

Suddenly, a long rainbow descended from the sky and landed beside the pool!

Zhang Xiaofan looked around, nodded, and murmured:

"This place is indeed a good place to refine the body of a demon god to perfection using the blood of tens of thousands of beast spirits from the Blood Soul Sword!"

At this point, Zhang Xiaofan looked towards a spot in the mountains and forests and smiled:

"Naiqi, what brings you here so late?" (End of Chapter)
