Chapter 1960: The Great Master Lian Killed (Part 2)
Chapter 1960: Killing the Grand Master in a Row (Part 2)
The battle with the three half-step masters made Zhu Xi more and more desperate. The three juniors in front of him were stronger than before.
Although Zhu Xi had previously fought against the five half-step grandmasters alone, Liu Mu and Arthur were almost exhausted and had no cooperation with Ah Qing and the other three. Therefore, the five half-step grandmasters joined forces and were unable to defeat the three now.
The threat to Zhu Xi is great.
Ah Qing, Qin Yijue and Pei Ju have specially practiced joint attack tactics, but they did not bring Liu Mu and Arthur with them during the practice. Now that Liu Mu and Arthur are not in the way, the three of them can work together to achieve their full potential.
The combat power is naturally stronger.
Pei Ju's Immortal Seal is weird and magical, Qin Yijue's Ghost Sky Sword is changeable, and Ah Qing's Yue Nu Sword is extremely sharp. Among the three, Ah Qing is the most difficult to deal with.
Zhu Xi could tell at a glance that A Qing had figured out the secret of the Grand Master and could break through the Grand Master at any time. However, before she could break through the Grand Master, she was already no weaker than she was when she first broke through the Grand Master.
Facing such three powerful half-step grand masters, even Zhu Xi, as a grand master, was at a disadvantage.
Zhu Xi didn't understand where the Qin army found so many geniuses, but he knew that under the siege of these three juniors, he was facing a dead end. Apart from burning his internal strength, there was no other way to break the situation.
.
"What should I do? What should I do?" Zhu Xi was extremely anxious.
At this moment, two extremely powerful auras quickly came towards Xuanwu Street. It was Yuan Tiangang and Ziyang Zhenren who came to meet Liu Xie.
After seeing Yuan Tiangang and Ziyang Zhenren, Zhu Xi was immediately overjoyed, thinking that he and others had been saved, but the next second he was extremely happy and sad.
Due to their status, Confucius and Kong Xuan could not directly fight against Zhu Xi, who was also a Confucian. Could it be that they could not fight against Taoists?
Therefore, when they saw Yuan Tiangang and Ziyang Zhenren coming over, clearly looking like they were going to help Zhu Xi, Confucius and Kong Xuan both responded with a tacit understanding and stopped them.
Kong Qiu stopped Yuan Tiangang, while Kong Xuan faced Zhenren Ziyang.
"Confucius, you are not a son of man."
Zhu Xi cursed angrily. Now he finally saw that Confucius' target was not Liu Ping and Sima Yi, but himself.
It's ridiculous that just now he whispered in a low voice to beg Confucius to let them go, but little did he know that his target was him from the beginning.
As for why Confucius did this, Zhu Xi was a little puzzled, but he soon figured it out.
There was no personal enmity between him and Confucius, but as the leader of Confucianism, Confucius wanted to cut off his own arms and get rid of himself as a great Confucian, so there was only one possibility left.
At several previous Confucian elders' meetings, Zhu Xi opposed Confucius's proposal to reform Confucianism.
To be honest, Zhu Xi was not dissatisfied with Confucius as the leader. Instead, he felt that Confucius was more suitable to be the leader than Meng Ke. The reason why he opposed Confucius was that he felt that Confucius's actions were superfluous.
Conservatives such as Zhu Xi and Dong Zhongshu all believed that Confucian teachings were perfect and did not need to be changed at all, and it was best to continue to maintain them as they were.
As the founder of Confucianism, could Confucius not know that Confucianism was on the wrong track?
Although Confucius was determined to reform Confucianism, Zeng Nai, led by Dong and Zhu, had too strong conservative forces in Confucianism, and they were all very senior and would not listen to your reasoning. What could he do? He could only kill.
Zhu Xi did not expect that Confucius would get rid of him because of this, and at the same time, he was secretly annoyed at his carelessness.
The moral battle will never end.
I and others knew that Confucius's ideas were inconsistent with the main ideas of Confucianism today, but they did not oppose him in time to fight for the leadership. Now they have fallen into this end by themselves.
"Confucius, you colluded with the Qin army and plotted against me. You are not worthy to be the leader of Confucianism." Zhu Xi cursed.
Confucius, who had already dealt with Yuan Tiangang, heard Zhu Xi's words and said calmly: "Master Zhu, you have already said this. Brother Qiu and Xuan did not touch you."
"you……"
Zhu Xi was so angry that he couldn't speak. In his anger, he exposed his flaw again. Qin Yijue slashed the Gang Qi armor on his back with a knife, and a ferocious sword wound appeared on his back.
Gurgling blood flowed out from the wound, dyeing the white Confucian robe red, but it quickly stopped and stopped bleeding. The vacant part of Zhu Xi's back was also covered by Gang Qi in an instant.
On the other side, Yuan Tiangang and Ziyang Zhenren met Confucian Kong Qiu and Kong Xuan. They were already curious. After all, it would be beneficial to Confucianism for them to rescue Zhu Xi. But after hearing Zhu Xi's words, they realized that Confucianism was not good either.
Seems to show so much unity.
"Senior Zhu, don't worry. Once Senior Ziyang defeats that junior, we can leave smoothly."
Yuan Tiangang said with confidence. He knew that he could not defeat Confucius, the leader of Confucianism, but he had absolute confidence in Ziyang Zhenren.
Among the many grand masters in Luoyang City, only Zhenren Ziyang is the old grand master. Even Dong Zhongshu cannot compare with him. It is not easy to win over a junior who is more than thirty years old.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Tiangang was dumbfounded. The junior in his eyes actually used the Gang Qi Armor, which meant that he also had the cultivation level of a great master.
Apart from Confucius, is there any such young great master in Confucianism?
Suddenly, a person's name appeared in Yuan Tiangang's mind, that was Kong Xuan, the Confucian protector.
Yuan Tiangang didn't know Kong Xuan, but he also knew Kong Xuan's achievements. After all, one man's achievements in defeating Qi were so shocking that it would be difficult for people to forget them.
When he thought that Master Ziyang's current opponent was Kong Xuan, Yuan Tiangang couldn't help but beat a drum in his heart.
Senior Ziyang should be able to withstand it? Yuan Tiangang thought with some uncertainty in his heart.
boom……
After Ziyang Zhenren and Kong Xuan punched each other with all their strength, Kong Xuan didn't even move, but Ziyang Zhenren was knocked away more than ten meters, and even the Gang Qi on his fist was shattered.
"this……"
Master Ziyang showed an expression of disbelief. He couldn't believe that a junior like Kong Xuan could have such strong combat power.
Ziyang Zhenren always believed that the outside world's assessment of the combat power of Xiang Yu, Li Cunxiao and others was exaggerated. It was not until Li Cunxiao single-handedly defeated Tang that he was shaken. Only after fighting against Kong Xuan did he realize that he was wrong.
How outrageous.
The outside world has not exaggerated the combat power of these juniors, they are really incredibly strong!
While Zhenren Ziyang was unwilling to give in, he also had a desire to be stronger. His right hand was wrapped in Gang Qi, and he shouted: "Junior, I have to use all my strength."
Kong Xuan's eyes were full of fighting spirit. After all, fighting Ziyang Zhenren was much more enjoyable than Liu Guanzhang, so he smiled and said: "Then let the juniors learn from the seniors' clever tricks."
