Zongwu: Saving Wu Meiniang at the beginning

This was probably because he had a righteous heart and all the evil spirits retreated. Most of the disciples did not dare to look him in the eye, and even at this moment, they felt a little more withdrawn. Only Wu Menggui had a cold light in his eyes.

"Humph, I borrowed some things from the Ten Thousand Poison Cave, so what? The Ten Thousand Poison Cave is the power of our Miao people, but this man is a thief from the Central Plains. The thieves from the Central Plains have wicked ambitions and are unyielding. All of my disciples know this."

"The man who helped you is a lackey of the Tang Dynasty. He holds a high position in the court and is Li Zhi's close confidant. Even if you, Rewi Alley, have no such intentions, who can guarantee that he is not harboring evil intentions and wants to disintegrate the Holy Church from within?"

"Who dares to do such evil tricks under my nose?" Just as Wu Menggui was full of confidence to expose Wu Ming's identity, Wu Ming, who had been touching Qu Yun's feet and watching the show, suddenly shouted at the void beside him. This angry shout was like the roar of a tiger or a dragon, and the terrifying sound waves almost broke the space. At the same time, a hidden figure was also shaken out and staggered to the ground where the sound waves reached.

"Turns out he's an old man." Wu Ming's eyes narrowed. This man who hides his head and shows his tail, has a hat unique to Miao men on his head, two strange horns on his shoulders, purple clothes and silver armor, with his chest open, revealing his eight strong abdominal muscles, his beard and eyebrows are gray, his eyes are almost all white, and his dark pupils are the size of a pinhole, looking extremely evil.

"It's the Poison Lord from the Ten Thousand Poison Cave. Why is he here?"

"What is there to be confused about? It must have been Elder Wu Menggui who sent this person here. You said this person is really from the imperial court. He is very powerful, handsome, and so young. The young leader is sitting on her shoulder. There is a strange harmony!"

"Nayu, could you please stop being such a nympho?"

"Am I wrong, Sister Yini? You must think so too, right?"

"You call her Young Master, do you recognize her?"

"Of course I admit it. I'm just hesitant and don't know what to do. After all, we are all brothers and sisters in the church. It would be great if the leader is not dead. It's all because of the blue disc."

"You can't blame Lan Caidie for this. Although she was the one who recruited the people, the one who made the decision was the leader. Sister Caidie didn't want to do this either."

"Whatever you say, I don't know how powerful this little brother is. If he can really suppress Elder Wu Menggui, it will be a great thing for our Holy Church."

"Do you really believe this Central Plains man?"

"What's wrong with people from the Central Plains? Not all of them are bad people." Nayu blinked his big eyes, obviously ready to be infatuated to the end.

Chapter 174: Ayouduo and Qu Yun

"Your Excellency is so powerful. I am Chi Li, the Poison Lord of the Ten Thousand Poison Caves. I am here just to watch the fun and have no intention of interfering in the affairs of the Holy Church. I hope you will show some mercy."

Chi Li's method of hiding in the void was obviously with the help of the poisonous insect. Wu Ming shouted loudly and killed the poisonous insect. Although he suffered some minor injuries, he recovered quickly.

Even Wu Ming couldn't help but marvel at the mystery of the witchcraft. If this guy hadn't sent a message to Wu Menggui, even with the help of the Taoist Heart Demon Cultivation Technique, he might not have been able to discover this person's whereabouts.

"Sir, you call me sir. Are you trying to emphasize my identity and remind the disciples of the Five Saints Sect that I am from the imperial court and cannot be trusted?" Wu Ming looked at Chi Li and instantly saw through his thoughts.

"Your Excellency is overthinking. This is not what I intended."

"Stop, stop, stop. Don't talk to me about this. I've always heard that the Miao people are generous and straightforward. They have good wine for their friends and poisonous insects for their enemies. How could such a kind place produce a dirty person like you? I see that you look quite tall and strong, but why are you like a rat, full of dark thoughts?" Wu Ming waved his hand and turned his body away with disgust, as if looking at him any longer would dirty his eyes.

"Hehe, what a great thing to have a friend come and have wine. With what you said, Ayouduo should believe you this time." Ayouduo, who was wearing a purple dress, spoke with a smile. Then, without any instructions from her, the Fire Saint Scorpion under her seat suddenly jumped up, swinging its long scorpion tail, and flew straight towards Wu Menggui.

Her movements were extremely fast and she was already not far from Wu Menggui. Her previous actions made Wu Menggui happy, thinking that A Youduo had been provoked by him and wanted to get close to him. He did not expect that the other party would attack him so abruptly. The scorpion's tail was like a whip and as fast as lightning. The scorpion's claws were round but the tail needle was extremely sharp. It pierced Wu Menggui's flesh with just a slight poke.

"Wu Menggui, just surrender. The disciples of the Holy Scorpion will follow the will of the leader. From now on, Qu Yun will be the new leader of the Five Sacred Sect. If she really disregards the interests of the Holy Sect as you said, I will set things right and bring fairness to our Holy Sect." Ayouduo's charming big eyes were slightly narrowed, with an indescribable laziness. Such a posture did not match her short body, but gave people a sense of firmness that could not be refuted.

"You...you will regret it." Wu Menggui was stunned. After he reacted, his eyes widened like copper bells and he looked at A Youduo hatefully. He had never underestimated the other party, but he didn't expect that he still underestimated the other party's strength.

He is only fifteen years old, so how come he has such profound skills, and his speed is also so strange and terrifying.

"Waste!" Du Gong looked at all this and couldn't help but curse in his heart.

“My name is Qu Yun. My mother sent me to the Central Plains when I was young. I was born and raised in Qixiufang, but I have never had any prejudice against the Holy Church.

From now on, I will give up my ego and take the Five Sages’ teachings as my ego; give up my wealth and take the wealth of my people as my wealth; give up my life and sacrifice it to protect all my people.

As the leader, he taught his people martial arts without reservation, managed the affairs of the sect without complaint or resentment, and guarded against enemies and wild beasts without sleep or rest. He would not relax until the end of his life, or the day when he passed the position of leader to the next saint.

The leader Qu Yun said, this oath is witnessed by the spirits of heaven and earth and the great god Zhurong. "

"Perhaps you noticed that the oath I made lacked the phrase 'give up love and only care for my people'. The reason I didn't say this is because I, Qu Yun, have someone in my heart and love a man. But Qu Yun swears here that when the interests of the Holy Church conflict with this man, Wu Ming, I will never side with him and damage the interests of the Five Holy Church. If I break this oath, I will be punished by heaven and earth."

The oath that Qu Yun mentioned is the oath that every leader of the Wusheng Sect must take when he succeeds. It is both an oath and a responsibility.

When Ayouduo had the opportunity to suppress Wu Menggui, Qu Yun directly stood up to express her determination, which undoubtedly strengthened the resolve of some wavering disciples to support her.

The Miao people take oaths very seriously, let alone swearing an oath under the hand of the great god Zhurong. All the people of the Five Saints Religion believe in this.

"Greetings, Leader. We are willing to be under your command." The Five Saints Sect disciples knelt on the ground in unison, with fanaticism in their eyes. They may not respect Qu Yun now, but they are absolutely loyal to the position of Leader.

Once the leader is established, everyone will naturally be convinced, and the only one who will feel uncomfortable is Wu Menggui.

He had already made preparations. Even if rebellion failed, he would lead his men to rebel against the Five Saints Sect and open a new sect. He had even thought of a name: Tianyi Sect.

But he didn't expect that Qu Yun would actually seize this opportunity and directly solidify his position as the leader. Sheng Xie's poison hook was still in his flesh, and although the poison had not been released, he didn't dare to resist at all.

This holy scorpion is a spiritual creature that lives at the bottom of the volcano. Its tail carries a fire poison that can annihilate everything. The scorpion's tail is extremely sharp and can pierce the golden body of the Buddhist Vajra. Any defense is useless under this scorpion's tail. The reason why he is afraid of Ayouduo is largely because of this holy scorpion.

But he didn't expect that Ayouduo, who usually acted crazy and unruly in church all day long, would become so fierce and decisive now.

"Qu Yun, Ai Li, I didn't lose to you. I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful."

"If you want to kill or shave, just be straightforward. If I lose, I lose. I accept the punishment."

"Leader?" Ayouduo turned her gaze to Qu Yun, wanting her to make the decision.

Qu Yun took a deep breath and looked at Wu Menggui deeply.

"Abolish your cultivation and never leave the Holy Church for the rest of your life."

"I obey the master's orders." A Youduo laughed, and changed from a decisive and resolute queen to a naughty loli. However, her moves were still decisive. With one palm, she destroyed Wu Menggui's dantian and injected the holy scorpion poison into Wu Menggui's body, destroying his eight extraordinary meridians.

In this way, Wu Menggui is completely useless. It is not impossible for him to recover, but who would waste so much energy for him?

"Daddy..., the Spirit Snake Envoy Maso is willing to accept the punishment." Maso was a somewhat delicate woman. She had originally opposed Wu Menggui's actions, but due to Wu Menggui's father's identity, she could only obey him. At this moment, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"The Sky Spider Envoy is willing to be punished."

"The Wind Centipede Master is willing to be punished."

"The three of you will withdraw your status as Holy Envoys. Yini will take over as the Sky Spider Envoy, Nayu will take over as the Spirit Snake Envoy, and Tan Xiang will take over as the Wind Centipede Envoy." Qu Yun made arrangements quickly. It can be seen that she has not been doing nothing in the Five Saints Sect during this period of time.

"All disciples, listen up. The Poison Lord Chi Li has violated our Holy Church and is suspected of instigating or even aiding rebellion. Capture him and then send someone to the Ten Thousand Poison Cave to hold him accountable."

After arranging everything in the sect, Qu Yun turned his attention to the Poison Master Chi Li. This man had to stay no matter what.

"Okay, let all your brothers and sisters take a break. I will take care of this guy."

Wu Ming put Qu Yun down, touched her head, and then rushed forward. Chi Li was undoubtedly a master. Although he did not have the strength of a land immortal god, he was worthy of Wu Ming's fight.

After this battle, his demon species was almost fully developed.

Chapter 175: The Poisonous Man

The boiling devil flames and the indestructible body are Wu Ming's invincible weapons.

The Poison King Chi Li, in addition to his powerful poison skills, is also known for his witchcraft skills, among which witchcraft is the most powerful. The voodoo doll in his hand can use witchcraft to control the opponent after absorbing the enemy's blood.

But, among those present, is there anyone who can make Wu Ming bleed?

Except for Ayouduo's Fire Saint Scorpion, which might be able to break Wu Ming's defense, the others are all younger brothers. Even if they attack together, Wu Ming has enough strength to escape from the Five Saints Sect unscathed.

But the person who is isolated and helpless right now is not Wu Ming, but the poisonous master Chi Li.

Once the field is opened, ordinary poisonous insects cannot get close to him. Although some special poisonous insects can get close to Wu Ming, they cannot break his flesh. His perfect flesh can not only defend against poisonous insects, but also poisons cannot do anything to him. This feeling is probably equivalent to Li Xunhuan meeting the Happy Female Bodhisattva. Xiao Li's Flying Dagger can penetrate into the flesh, but it can only penetrate into the flesh.

To put it in a more vivid way, people say that a pony can pull a taxi. However, if your pony is a regular one, only the size of a broad bean, what else can you do except make people drool, unless you use your hands.

Well, although this metaphor is vivid, it does feel a bit off-putting when used here.

Anyway, this is the situation that Du Gong is in now. Even if he sprinkles poison on Wu Ming, not a single hair will fall off. Wu Ming will still seize the opportunity and punch him from time to time. Wu Ming's fists are no joke. Every punch he makes causes ridiculously high damage to the flesh. Soon, Zhurong Square was left with only the Du Gong's slightly shrill screams.

It was so heartbreaking that anyone who heard it would cry. Even the Fire Saint Xie under Ayouduo's butt was a little terrified and carried Ayouduo back and forth.

This one-sided beating is really horrible.

The most important thing is that while Wu Ming was beating people, he also had an expression of disgust on his face. If you get closer, you can even hear him mumbling.

"You are such a waste! You are the leader of a faction, how can you be so weak? How did you survive until now? You couldn't be relying on your brother, right? I've heard that the Poison King Chi Li is a gigolo who lives off his brother. He can only sit in his current position thanks to the help of the Gu King in the Ten Thousand Poison Cave. It turns out that living in such a world, it is as important to be born into a good family, right?" As Wu Ming muttered the last sentence, the strong Poison King finally fell from the sky after enduring Wu Ming's continuous attacks.

The tattered body fell at Wu Ming's feet, and the pupils, which were originally the size of a pinhole, were shrunken to the size of a broad bean.

According to later medical science, his condition is called pupil dilation, a precursor to physical death. Fortunately, this is a world of martial arts, and the Poison Lord who practices witchcraft will be defeated for sure unless Wu Ming kills him, but he will not die.

"Okay, it's up to you to decide how to arrange it."

Wu Ming clapped his hands and let Qu Yun decide for himself.

"Take him away and lock him up first. After the sect is stable, send someone to the Ten Thousand Poison Cave to pass a message and ask the Gu King to come and take the man away." Qu Yun looks more and more like a sect leader. This small person has great power.

"Elder Ai Li, interrogate Wu Menggui immediately. This leader needs to know what the deal between him and Du Gong is. Also, whether there are other forces behind Wu Menggui's rebellion this time."

"Yini, take your people to comfort the disciples, arrange treatment for the injured as soon as possible, and arrange funerals for the disciples who unfortunately died. Bury them together with my mother."

"By the way, arrange for someone to go to Wusheng Village and appease the villagers as necessary."

After making simple arrangements, Qu Yun finally had time to look for Wu Ming. When she saw the man standing in the crowd, looking at her with a gentle smile, Qu Yun felt much more at ease.

She suddenly let go of all her emotions and burdens, and ran and jumped into Wu Ming's arms, using her 1.1-meter-tall body to her fullest. This jump melted the hearts of many girls. At least at this moment, A Youduo looked as if she could not bear it at all. Her beautiful eyes kept blinking, and at the same time, she looked at Wu Ming with inexplicable disgust.

Humph, this stinky man, why!

After all, Qu Yun at this moment is a real loli with a queen’s heart.

"I have to leave for a while. You have several sisters hiding in the mountains far away. I have to bring them here." Wu Ming touched Qu Yun's head lovingly.

"Will it take a long time? Why don't you tell me a place and I'll ask my disciples to pick me up." Qu Yun pouted, not wanting to be separated from Wu Ming for a moment.

"No, if I don't go, they will be sad."

"Hmph, you're a playboy." Qu Yun heard Wu Ming's ambiguous words, but he didn't know that the so-called sisters all had a special relationship with Wu Ming.

"I don't deny that. I am indeed a playboy." Wu Ming admitted with a smile. Qu Yun was so angry that he hugged his neck and bit his lips hatefully.

Of course Qu Yun was jealous, but not that jealous. Her identity had already determined that she couldn't accompany Wu Ming often.

Not to mention the oath he had made before, specifically emphasizing that the interests of the Five Saints Sect would not be harmed because of Wu Ming. Although Wu Ming did not care about these things, Qu Yun felt that he owed Wu Ming a lot.

"Be good, go get busy. After all, we have just put down the civil unrest, and there are many things that need to be dealt with by you as the leader. They are not far away, and you will be able to see me again around this time tomorrow."

Wu Ming put Qu Yun down, waved his hand, and instantly disappeared from Qu Yun's sight.

"This Lord Wu has amazing abilities."

"Elder Ai Li, I've already said that the interests of the Holy Church will not be affected by him. You don't need to emphasize this." Qu Yun's face turned cold, and the air suddenly became sticky.

"Master, you worry too much. I am not the kind of person who doesn't know what is good for me. I even hope that the Holy Church can establish a closer relationship with Master Wu. As long as the inheritance of my Holy Church can be kept pure, it is not a bad thing to have some connection with the court."

"The Tang Dynasty is currently a rich and powerful country. If we can borrow some of the power of the imperial court, the Holy Church will survive better."

"Of course, these cannot be made public." Ai Li smiled bitterly. He had not expected Qu Yun's reaction. The reason he mentioned Wu Ming's identity was not because he wanted to stay away from him, but because he wanted to get closer to him.

"Elder Ai Li, although I guessed your idea wrongly, I still don't agree with what you said?"

"The martial arts world and the imperial court are clearly separated. You want to borrow the power of the imperial court, but you don't want the Holy Church to leave the martial arts world. The final outcome will only be to offend both sides."

"This is just a clever trick. The Five Saints Sect's roots are in the Shiwan Mountains. For the imperial court, the harsh environment of the Shiwan Mountains is not worth wasting their time on. The imperial court wants stability. As long as the Miao people don't rebel, the Saints Sect will not offend the imperial court. You must understand this."

"As for the martial arts world, apart from those sects that deal with poison and witchcraft, which sect dares to come to the Shiwan Mountains? We just need to be careful of these sects. If they insist on making trouble, the Holy Church will not be a pushover."

"Master, you are wise. I was too simple-minded." Ai Li lowered his head in shame. As an elder of the Five Saints Sect, he still had some ambition, but after this incident, it seemed a little scattered.

He was a righteous man. Even though he noticed Wu Menggui's actions, he did not expect that the other party would go to this extent.

Why bother fighting against one's own family?

…………

Chapter 176: Fierce Battle

Time flies. When Wu Ming visited the Five Saints Sect again, he was absolutely welcomed. Even the Five Saints Village at the foot of the mountain received the notice early and set out twelve drinks to block the door.

There are twelve kinds of wine, each of which has rich meaning.

To the Miao people, twelve is a big number.

In the oral classics of the Miao nationality, there are twelve popular songs, twelve ways of drinking, twelve suns, twelve moons, twelve layers of the sky...

Therefore, setting up twelve courses of road-blocking wine has become the highest etiquette of the Miao ethnic group in welcoming guests.

The first is the wine of congratulations; the second is the wine of kindness; the third is the wine of diligence; the fourth is the wine of courage; the fifth is the wine of intelligence; the sixth is the wine of beauty; the seventh is the wine of understanding; the eighth is the wine of honesty; the ninth is the wine of magnanimity; the tenth is the wine of longevity; the eleventh is the wine of wealth; the twelfth is the wine of happiness.

These wines are all fine wines unique to the Five Saints Religion. There is a Five Immortals Religion in the Central Plains, and the treasure of the religion is the Five Treasures Nectar Wine. The so-called five treasures are actually the five saints of the Five Saints Religion.

The Five Immortals Sect is actually just a small branch of the Five Saints Sect.

The fine wine that greeted Wu Ming at this time, although not the Five Treasures Honey Wine, was more precious than the Five Treasures Honey Wine.
