Yao Yue rolled her eyes. "I'm not that boring. My husband, please continue. Besides these few people, are there any other masters we should pay attention to?"
Song Xuan said: "The three great masters plus Song Que are considered the top-tier in Tangzhou, with Shi Zhixuan second.
Next came the four holy monks of Jingnian Zen Temple, Zhu Yuyan, the head of Yinkui Sect, Fan Qinghui, the abbot of Cihang Jingzhai, and others. These people roughly belonged to the same level. Although they were not grand masters, they had begun to touch the laws, but they had not yet forged their souls and completely stepped into the realm of grand masters.
These are the only ones you need to pay attention to; you can ignore the rest."
He knew Yao Yue's strength clearly. She was not as strong as a grandmaster, but was much stronger than a top master. He estimated that she was roughly equivalent to the mentally unstable Shi Zhixuan for the time being.
Of course, if she is given a few more years, and her control over the demon incarnation and cultivation of the art of immortality make some progress, the mentally ill Shi Zhixuan will no longer be her opponent.
"What I'm talking about are the masters that have been publicly recorded in Tangzhou over the past hundred years. Some old guys are not included in the records."
Song Xuan said in a deep voice: "For example, the two founders of Jingnian Zen Temple and Cihang Jingzhai, Tianseng and Di Ni, these two had already become famous masters a long time ago.
But according to the records of Xuanyiwei, these two people did not go to Tianyuan!"
“Not only these two, there is another one who is even more terrifying, the Evil Emperor Xiang Yutian!
This person is the strongest in the history of the Demon Sect. He is the leader of the "Evil Extreme Sect" among the two sects and six paths of the Demon Sect. He practices the great method of planting demons in the heart of Taoism and his achievements are comparable to those of nature!
According to the records of the Xuanyiwei Secret Pavilion, this person was a rising star of the human race after the rise of Taizu. He planted the demon seeds with his Taoist heart and killed countless people along the way. Even among the grand masters, he was the most terrifying one.
To be frank, if there were no perfect Grandmaster like Taizu in this world, Xiang Yutian would definitely be the world's most terrifying nightmare, almost uncontrollable!"
"Heavenly monk, earthly nun, Xiang Yutian?"
Yao Yue pondered and said, "In other words, these three people have not entered Tianyuan and are most likely still hiding somewhere in this world?"
Song Xuan nodded, "This time I came to Tangzhou, in addition to thinking about the longevity secret and the magic and Buddhist skills, I also planned to explore the hiding places of these old guys.
Having stayed in the human world for too long and enjoying the welfare of the human race for hundreds of years, yet being unwilling to contribute anything, this has gone beyond Taizu's tolerance.
Before setting off, I met with the Emperor. This was the Emperor's intention, and it should also be Taizu's intention."
"Is that so... Then how do you plan to investigate, my husband?"
"Just walk around casually. It's all a matter of luck. If I can find it, that's the best. If not, that's okay. At worst, I'll wait another ten or twenty years, and then I'll become a Grandmaster and conquer the whole world!
All the martial arts sacred places that were unwilling to contribute were pushed aside by him!"
The two were chatting enthusiastically when the boatman's voice was heard outside the cabin.
"My two immortals, the territory ahead is Du Fuwei of the Jianghuai Army. Should we continue?"
Song Xuan replied calmly, "Continue!"
Ever since the governor Yang Guang lost control of Tangzhou, the territory of Tangzhou has actually entered a state of warlord separatism.
Led by the four major clans, each of them has its own territory. The martial arts holy land is aloof from the world, but it also has its own sphere of influence.
After that, after losing the control of the government, gangs in various places grew bigger and stronger. They were called gangs, but in fact they recruited soldiers and occupied cities, becoming the behind-the-scenes controllers of each city.
In addition, the old emperor had been busy suppressing the Xuanyi Guards. As long as taxes were paid on time every year, he didn't care about the situation in Tangzhou.
No matter how chaotic Tangzhou is, it is just a minor disturbance in the eyes of the old emperor. However, if the Xuanyi Guards are not suppressed, the imperial power may be overthrown.
In some ways, his idea is actually not wrong.
The Xuanyi Guards were indeed powerful enough to influence the imperial power. It might not matter if a martial arts expert sat on the emperor's throne, but it was normal for a martial arts useless like the old emperor to feel a sense of crisis.
The black-sailed boat continued to sail along the river, and then Song Xuan and Yao Yue saw the scene of the Jianghuai Army burning, killing and looting.
The bodies of civilians hacked to death could be seen everywhere along the coast, as well as refugees fleeing in panic. Regardless of gender, age or status, each one looked terrified and fled in despair.
Chapter 441 Dao Heart Seed Demon
Yao Yue watched this scene with a slightly cold voice, saying, "When I was reviewing memorials for you before, none of the monthly memorials submitted by the twelve thousand households in Tangzhou mentioned this situation!"
Song Xuan hummed, "That's why the spy's report said that the Tangzhou Xuanyi Guards were unreliable!"
Yao Yue said, "I'll go take care of it!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she disappeared, and when she appeared again, she was already on the river bank.
At this moment, the river bank was full of scenes of soldiers chasing and killing civilians. Some bandits even pressed some good-looking women to the ground and began to tear their clothes without any scruples.
In such troubled times, people are worse than dogs, they are toys to be played with and killed for fun.
"Hey, look!"
A Jiang Huaijun soldier who was tearing off a woman's clothes and preparing to take off her pants was pushed by his companion next to him and turned his head to look in the direction the other person was pointing.
Then~~
Several soldiers were stunned.
"Brothers, do you want to come up?"
The bandit army is bad, but not stupid. Looking at Yao Yue dressed as a Taoist priest, I instinctively feel that they are not easy to mess with.
"Forget it, this is too damn beautiful. How can a soldier like me get on this?"
"That's right. Only those who lead them can reach this level. Even if we catch them, it won't be our turn in the queue!"
"That's right, instead of dwelling on useless things, it's better to just enjoy the present moment and be happy first!"
As he spoke, one of the soldiers began to take off his pants, and laughed loudly as he listened to the woman's pleas.
"Don't be afraid, little lady. That kind of thing is very comfortable. Even though you are crying and shouting no now, you will be begging and shouting not to stop later! I tell you, this..."
He was halfway through his words when he felt that his mouth was open but no sound came out. He turned around in surprise to see what was going on, but saw his head fall off with a gurgling sound.
Several of his companions also had their heads chopped off.
"what!!!"
The disheveled woman lying on the ground screamed in fear. Yao Yue suddenly appeared and shouted coldly, "Shut up!"
The woman immediately stopped talking and trembled. Although she was extremely frightened, she did not dare to make any noise. In troubled times, the people were actually very docile in order to survive.
As long as you give them even a glimmer of hope to survive, they will be particularly obedient.
Yao Yue glanced at him and said nothing more. Then he appeared a hundred feet away. Wherever he passed, a black light flashed, and the heads of hundreds of Jianghuai soldiers were moved away.
She killed so quickly that in a very short period of time, she had killed seven or eight groups of rebel soldiers, and no Jianghuai army could be seen within a few miles.
"Gods! Gods have come down to earth to save us!"
I don't know who started shouting, and then the crowd of people knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Yao Yue. Seeing the tears on the faces of the old people who had survived the disaster, Yao Yue didn't know what to feel.
As the master of the holy land of martial arts, she had long been accustomed to being respected and kowtowed to, but that was all oppression from strength and fear from others. This was the first time she had encountered a situation where countless people were grateful to her.
"How does it feel? Do you feel a sense of accomplishment?"
Song Xuan appeared beside her and smiled gently.
"Yeah! A little bit."
Yao Yue was rarely embarrassed. "I suddenly understand why so many people like to be heroes!"
The feeling of turning the tide and being the center of attention is really great!
Song Xuan smiled and said, "Just do things with a clear conscience. As for whether others are grateful or resentful, you don't need to care too much."
He glanced at the densely packed crowd of people kneeling on the ground and said, "Most of these people have no subjective consciousness, nor do they have any stance. They just believe whatever others say.
If you save them today, they will worship you as a god.
If you do something that displeases them in the future, they will curse your ancestors for eighteen generations and even want to dig up your ancestral graves!
Just listen to the praise from others and don’t take it to heart.”
Yao Yue pondered, "It's like being a good person all your life, but if you do something evil just once, you'll be criticized as a hypocrite; while a great evil person who has been evil all his life, but only needs to do a good deed once, will be praised as a prodigal son who has returned home, and who can become a Buddha right away by laying down his butcher knife.
Husband, is this what you mean?"
Song Xuan nodded and said, "The reason why the strong are strong is that they act according to their own conscience and are not swayed by external public opinion. Often, what the majority insists on recognizing is not necessarily right!"
Yao Yue said casually, "Don't worry, husband, you are the only one who can influence me.
As for them, I saved them simply because I wanted to save them, not for their gratitude or any other reward!"
Song Xuan smiled and said, "Then let me ask you again, if you saved them and they didn't react at all and just kept running for their lives, would you be angry?"
"meeting!"
Yao Yue said frankly, "I saved them because I wanted to, and I didn't expect anything in return.
But just because I don't ask for anything in return doesn't mean they can just be innocent and naive! "
Song Xuan smiled with satisfaction and said, "Very good, you follow your heart and do what you want. You are already a qualified demon master!"
The devil is not a synonym for bad or evil, but it is definitely an existence that is unrestrained and does whatever it wants.
If you want to go further on the path of magic, you can't have too many rules and regulations in your mind, just follow your heart.
Be happy if you are happy, be angry if you are angry. Just treat the outside public opinion and other people's opinions as fun, and don't care about them at all.
"The highest skill of the Demon Sect is the Heavenly Demon Strategy, which includes the Dao Heart Demon Cultivation Technique practiced by Xiang Yutian. This technique has many similarities with the Mingyu Gong. If you have the chance, find a way to obtain it. Learning from it may be of great benefit to your Heavenly Demon Incarnation."
Song Xuan suddenly talked about cultivating the devil in the heart of Taoism, "The Art of Immortality can be used as the heart of Taoism, the incarnation of the devil, and can be used as the devil's thoughts. When cultivated to perfection, the heart of Taoism can control the devil's power. When Taoism and devil are cultivated together, the potential is limitless!"
Yao Yue's eyes sparkled with joy, "Is this the path my husband has planned for me?"
Song Xuan said, "This is the most suitable path I have deduced for you with my martial arts spirit. Of course, whether it succeeds or not will depend on your own exploration.
Having a direction is always better than wasting time on trial and error without any purpose."
"The devil grows in the heart of Tao..."
Yao Yue murmured, her eyes full of thought.
"That is to say, when I master this technique in the future, I can switch between fairy and witch at will, right?"
Song Xuan nodded.
Yao Yue's eyes turned a little strange. "Husband, you didn't come up with this path just for me to make role-playing easier, did you?"
Chapter 442 Very good, quite tall
role play?
Song Xuan glanced at the people kneeling on the ground around him, not daring to raise their heads. Then he looked at Yao Yue and whispered, "If you hadn't said it, I wouldn't have cared much. Now that you've said it, I'm really a little excited!"
Yao Yue smiled, with a hint of pride in her eyes.
Hehe, this hobby of my husband is under my control.
The couple were talking in private, and the situation here finally attracted the attention of the main force of the Jianghuai Army.
Soon, a team of a hundred elite men rushed over.
Song Xuan took a casual glance. Although they were not as good as the Black Armored Army of the Yuwen Clan, this elite group of a hundred people were all composed of acquired warriors who had cultivated internal strength. The leader should have recently broken through the Innate Realm, and the fluctuations of his Innate Qi were still a bit unstable.
"My two friends, do you have any grudges against our Jianghuai Army in the past?"
While the leader was speaking, his team of a hundred men had already dispersed, blocking all directions where Song Xuan and the other two could escape.
It can be seen that this team is composed of experienced warriors who cooperate with each other very skillfully. If an ordinary martial arts master encounters such a team that is good at military formation coordination, he will be badly injured if not killed.
Song Xuan was too lazy to waste time talking to the little minions and said coldly, "Let Du Fuwei come out to see me!"
Du Fuwei, known as the "World in His Sleeves", is famous in the martial arts world for his unique skill of "World in His Sleeves". He started out with a gang, and then continued to expand and become stronger, and now has developed into the powerful Jianghuai Army.
"Can you see our Chief Steward Du whenever you want?"
The Jianghuai Army leader lost his patience and waved his hand at his men, saying, "Leave the women here, but don't worry about the men living or dying!"
But just as he finished speaking, he saw Yao Yue's figure appear in front of this person. She gently touched his head with her hand, and the man felt dizzy, his bones shattered, and he collapsed to the ground like a pool of rotten meat.
When this man died, Yao Yue made a move and the steel knife at his waist was unsheathed with a sound. It spun in the air and turned into a swirling cold light. In an instant, hundreds of heads flew into the sky.
Hundreds of people were killed with one blow, but not a drop of blood was splattered. A wisp of gray mist filled the air, making this place look like a ghost cave.
Yao Yue casually threw away the knife in her hand and clapped her hands nonchalantly.
This scene happened too quickly. A team of a hundred elite soldiers was killed in the blink of an eye. A middle-aged man who was rushing over in the distance using light skills saw this scene and stopped abruptly, not daring to move forward.
"Are you Du Fuwei?"
Song Xuan looked at the middle-aged man. He saw that the man was wearing a tall crown and his tall and thin figure could not hide his heroic demeanor. The violent innate true energy surged around his body, which was very eye-catching.
Du Fuwei looked a little unhappy.
