Chapter 398 The Taiyuan Storm
Chapter 398 A storm breaks out in Taiyuan
Inside Taiyuan Hall.
In front of the solemn statue of Daojun, Xiao Baoyue's spiritual tablet is placed.
Yuan Wu, the leader of the Yuanshi Sect, pinched the incense with his hands with a serious face, bowed three times, and then inserted the incense stick in front of the spiritual throne.
"Fellow Daoist Xiao, Pindao swears that he will avenge you and make King An pay with his blood."
After Yuan Wu offered incense, he said in a deep voice.
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden uproar in the hall. Mu Hanjiang on the side even stared at him and asked: "Is this what Master Yuan really said?"
Since the resurrection of Xiao Baoyue was kept secret, only three people in Zhenwu Dao knew the real culprit who intercepted and killed Xiao Baoyue, and among these three people, Mu Hanjiang was not among them.
In order to temper Mu Hanjiang, Xiao Baoyue did not inform him of this matter. Instead, he used the situation of Zhenwu Dao as pressure to push Mu Hanjiang forward.
At this moment, Mu Hanjiang only had doubts about King An and was not completely sure. When he heard Yuan Wu's words, he was naturally surprised.
"It's absolutely true," Yuanwu said categorically, "Emperor Xuan and Daoyou Xiao were also assassinated near Cangjiang. Pindao suspected that the two were connected, so he visited the palace the night before coming to Mount Taihe and met with Prince Na'an.
There has been a fight. That King An has definitely broken through to the realm of Grand Master and has the strength to intercept and kill Fellow Daoist Xiao."
The person who intercepted and killed Xiao Baoyue was definitely a great master, and judging from the traces at the scene, he was also suspected of being a martial arts cultivator.
Logically speaking, that person should be someone on the heavenly list.
But the great masters who were on Cangjiang at that time all sensed the brief interception and were able to judge that the person who intercepted and killed was definitely not a person on the heavenly list.
In other words, it is a Tianyuan martial arts practice that is not recorded in "Talking about Taoism and Lun Wu" and is not even known by the great masters.
In this case, it is a bit difficult to find the murderer. It is extremely difficult to find such a person who has such a cultivation level but is not known to the other great masters.
But now, there is the Invincible One in the World who claims that King An is the murderer, and there is also Yuanwu who asserts that King An has broken through and achieved the realm of Tianyuan. In addition, King An is in Zhongzhou, so it is indeed possible that he will go with the people of the imperial court.
Cangjiang······
Under various unfavorable factors, King An's suspicion skyrocketed.
Yuanwu said again: "The three sects of the Taoist sect are connected by the same spirit. The Yuanshi sect is willing to devote all the efforts of the sect to help the noble sect, avenge Daoist friend Xiao, and let King Naan know that the Taoist sect cannot be insulted."
This means going to war directly with the imperial court.
In the main hall, the Zhenwu Dao people all looked at Mu Hanjiang, wanting to see what the former disciple had to say.
But the rest of the people who came to attend the funeral were a little unable to sit still.
"Amitabha."
Master Xuxing, who came to attend the funeral on behalf of Daci'en Temple, recited the Buddha's name and said: "Master Yuan, King An has entered the realm of the great master. He is indeed capable of intercepting and killing Master Xiao, but based on this alone, we can conclude that he is
The murderer was too arbitrary."
From a fundamental point of view, Da Ci'en Temple, who was also a member of the Jianghu forces, was also hostile to the person who intercepted and killed him. After hearing Yuan Wu's words, Xu Xing also suspected that King An was the murderer.
After all, the prince has made frequent moves in the past six months, which has exposed his strong ambitions, and he indeed has the motive to do so.
But even so, if Zhenwu Dao, a major sect in the world, goes to war with the imperial court, the impact will be too great and will lead to endless troubles. Let’s not say that the murderer has not yet been identified. Even if he is identified, he cannot act like this.
"What Master Xu Xing said is correct, I hope all Taoist priests will think twice." Xian Xingjun of the Tianhe Sword Sect also advised.
While speaking, Xian Xingjun looked at Qi Tuohai, the deputy leader of the Dajiang Gang who also came to attend the funeral, hoping that he could persuade him. However, Qi Tuohai looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, just like the old Buddha in the temple, and remained unmoved.
The Dajiang Gang originally sided with Emperor Xuan, but as a result the investment failed and Emperor Xuan went bankrupt. Not to mention losing all his money, the past six months have definitely been difficult.
Although Shen Yi and others control Emperor Xuan, they will not openly violate Emperor Xuan's past edicts, but they use many secret methods. In the past six months, the Dajiang Gang has been suppressed overtly and covertly, and its sphere of influence has shrunk crazily. It no longer has the power of the past.
Now that Emperor Xuan has been declared dead by King An, and the fig leaf is gone, one can only imagine what kind of treatment he will encounter next.
Now Zhenwu Dao and the imperial court are about to fight. It's too late for the Dajiang Gang to be happy, so how can they stop it?
If it weren't for the wrong occasion, Qi Tuohai would even want to have a drink to celebrate.
Seeing Qi Tuohai not moving, Xu Xing immediately looked at the other side of the main hall, a member of the Buddhist sect - Lu Zong.
Wearing black robes and dressing up as a layman, Lu Zong only offered Xiao Baoyue a stick of incense since he entered the temple. The rest of the time his presence was weaker than Qi Tuohai's, but no one dared to look down upon this one of the three Buddhist sects.
Vinaya frowned when he noticed the meaning of Xu Xing. He didn't want to get involved in anything unrelated to Buddhist precepts, so he opened his mouth and called out: "Void."
The spread of words, like Sanskrit chanting, shows the profoundness of the Vinaya sect in Buddhist practice. This is the natural manifestation of the sound of the Brahma king.
Kong Kong, who had just entered the hall, stopped and looked at his master with half expectancy, half anxiety, and half hesitation.
Behind him were a big tiger with a tiger head and a tiger head, and an ordinary young man. At this moment, Kong Kong wanted Lu Zong to find out something was wrong with Shen Yi, but he was also a little worried about the consequences of the discovery.
If the Lu Zong could find out, several great masters in the hall would swarm him, and this evil and cheap nephew would have fled in despair even if he was not captured.
If you can win it, then of course it would be best to get a seat in Zhenmo Cave.
But if you can’t win it...
Based on his understanding of Shen Yi, Linglong Tiesha might not be able to live well in the future.
With Shen Yi's evil ability to confuse, even the Buddhist disciples would not feel comfortable if he really wanted to take revenge.
In Kong Kong's complicated eyes, Lu Zong's eyes swept over Shen Yi, paused slightly, as if wondering why he was following Kong Kong, and then focused on Kong Kong.
With Kong Kong's unconventional temperament, he might have found a liking for the young man and attracted him to see the world. This is not strange, not surprising at all.
"Kong Kong, you are the most valued disciple of Abbot Lingmen. What do you think of this matter?" Lu Zong asked.
He couldn't make a decision for Linglong Tiezha, but Kong could. After all, Kong's position as future abbot was already certain.
'I always say that if I see the heavenly demon again, I will save it. But now that the person is right in front of me, you turn a blind eye. I gave you a chance, but you can't live up to it.'
Kong Kong let out a long sigh in his heart, and finally gave up the idea of placing hope on others. He clasped his hands together and said, "What Master Xu Xing said is very true. Monk, I couldn't agree more."
In short: Me too.
Master Xuxing received satisfactory approval and once again pronounced the name of the Buddha, saying: "Please think again, Taoist priests."
But Yuan Wu turned a deaf ear to what they said. He just looked at Mu Hanjiang and asked: "Master Mu's nephew, you are a direct disciple of Fellow Daoist Xiao and the future leader of the Taoist sect. What do you think?"
