Zhang Liufang breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that John finally calmed down. When she saw that everyone in the field looked at Ziyuan again, only the master glared at her angrily. She quickly changed the topic with a smile:
"Master, why is Uncle Master so cruel to Master Ziyuan? Uncle Master is not usually such a person!"
Zhang Kongyun didn't know what she was thinking, but now was not the time to settle accounts. He snorted angrily and whispered: "Factions are fighting and power struggles. What do you, a child, know? In the face of such factional struggles, who is a good person?
Who is the sinner? Do you think I don’t want to help Ziyuan? But why don’t I help? Think about it yourself!”
Zhang Liufang pouted: "Huh, I'm not a child! I'm already very big! Is factionalism so terrible? Can one person become another person?"
Zhang Kongyun sneered: "Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are fights! Do you think that even if they are the superior Celestial Masters, they never do these intrigues? Huh, what a joke! Anyway, this case
Don't talk too much about this matter. The great uncle is doing this for the sake of our Zhengyi Sect's legacy of more than a thousand years. She has her reasons!"
Zhang Liufang snorted: "What's the reason? It's just a fight for power. Do you think I don't understand anything? I just can't understand. We are all from the same sect, why are we so divided?"
Zhang Kongyun was silent. He suddenly thought of his close friend Wang Yuanshan. His voice became a little bleak and he whispered: "Silly boy, you are too young to understand!"
While the two of them were talking, Zhang Ling once again challenged Ziyuan, and she shouted: "Ziyuan, would you rather have your cultivation level abolished and be expelled from the school than explain yourself?"
Ziyuan's slender eyelashes trembled slightly. She slowly raised her eyes, glanced at Zhang Ling, and then at everyone on the field. Her clear eyes made everyone feel like their thoughts were being read.
Everyone listened with bated breath to what Ziyuan was going to say next, waiting for her explanation.
But Ziyuan just smiled softly and said lightly: "Even if I explain it, will it be useful?"
As soon as she said this, Ruan Hongling grabbed her arm fiercely and whispered in an anxious voice: "Senior sister!"
Ziyuan seemed not to feel it. She secretly sent a message to Ruan Hongling and said: "Hongling, pay attention to your actions! Have you forgotten what I told you before coming here?"
Ruan Hongling froze as if struck by lightning.
When the Zhengyi Sect's golden post came, it was like someone had put a rope around her neck. She could only watch the rope shrinking tighter and tighter, but soon the Zhengyi Sect placed another golden post.
, after changing the time of the ceremony, Ruan Hongling suddenly felt that a terrible danger was approaching them quickly!
Because of this, she immediately rushed to Ziyuan's side, told her about the predicament at this time, and asked her to quickly think of a way, and quickly asked Li Yundong to prepare and let him help them overcome this difficulty.
But what they never expected was that... Li Yundong would actually enter a state of trance at this time!
The moment Ziyuan received this second gold post, she already figured out what kind of situation she would face alone. In those short ten seconds, Ziyuan walked through many places in her mind like a lantern.
scene.
If it hadn't been for Tachibana Zhizi defeating her at the lotus picking competition, Li Yundong would have taken action decisively. Later, because of this incident, Tachibana Masako was furious. In order to regain the situation, he sent Xiyuanji Changsheng, and finally angered Masako Tachibana.
Li Yundong went to Japan, which eventually led to the release of the remaining soul of Tianji Xuanhu.
All this led Li Yundong to Hainan to keep an eye on Cao Kefei, the remnant soul of Tianji Xuanhu, and finally led him to meet Zhang Zhishun. By chance, he gained Zhang Zhishun's favor and obtained his true biography. At this juncture, he entered a state of trance!
All of this finally settled in front of Ziyuan's eyes, and she let out a long sigh in her heart.
She is a person who believes in fate, and it is precisely because of this that she firmly believes in her master Wang Yuanshan's cuneiform poems.
All these coincidences made Ziyuan think sadly: Could it be that God really wants to destroy our Linggong sect? Since the Linggong sect is going to die, then I will be buried with it!
With Ziyuan's wisdom and Ruan Hongling's intelligence, it is natural that they would not know what would be waiting for them if they attended the succession ceremony without the three treasures sent by the town.
Ruan Hongling also cried and advised Ziyuan not to go to Longhu Mountain. Now the leader of the Linggong Sect is poison and a pit of fire to Ziyuan. If she goes there, she will have a narrow escape!
But no matter how she tried to persuade her, Ziyuan just smiled and said calmly and indifferently: "Hongling, no need to say anymore, no matter what, no matter how dangerous the situation is, I will go! Because... I am Ziyuan, from the Spirit Palace Sect.
The aster!”
What a proud and conceited statement!
But senior sister, you can't bury yourself like this just because of your identity! You can't jump down because of your pride, knowing that it's going to be a mountain of swords and a sea of fire!
Ruan Hongling looked at her senior sister with tearful eyes. She couldn't help but choked in her heart and said: Senior sister, why do you never live for yourself? When the master left you a cuneiform poem, you lived for this poem! When you met Li Yundong,
After falling in love with him, you live for him again...
But what about now? Why do you want to be buried together for this sect?
The more Ruan Hongling thought about it, the more her heart ached, and the more she thought about it, the sadder she felt. She couldn't help but grabbed Ziyuan, and cried desperately: "Senior sister, we don't want this leader anymore, let's go, I don't want to see him
You do this!"
When she shouted, her voice was mournful, and her mood was desolate, which moved everyone who heard her.
Although the cultivators from various sects present were fighting fiercely in private, seeing such cruel factional strife in Mingli, they couldn't help but feel a little unbearable for a moment and looked gloomy.
Even Mao Yuchang, who had been very public and sarcastic before, was also a little silent.
Only Zou Ping hid in the crowd and looked high-spirited. She glanced at Ziyuan with gloating, and said to herself: Ziyuan, Ziyuan, you also have this day? Haven't you been standing high in the clouds? I want to see if you fall into the mud.
After being married, can I still be so free and unrestrained, so eye-catching!
Thinking of attracting attention, Zou Ping couldn't help but glance at Zhang Tianhe who was not far away.
As the son of Master Zhang Tianhe, Zhang Tianhe is the direct descendant of the sect. His status is very important, so he wears a purple Taoist robe. But at this time, he was looking at Zi Yuan intently, his eyes were anxious, his teeth were clenched, and his fists were clenched.
He held it, as if he wanted to rush out and help Ziyuan right away.
Zou Ping was furious immediately, feeling both hate and anger in her heart. What she hated was that her junior brother never looked at her, and her eyes were always on Ziyuan. What she was angry about was that Ziyuan never looked at him.
Even now, my junior brother is still obsessed with it!
Zou Ping saw countless sympathetic eyes for Ziyuan. Zhang Ling also looked at Ziyuan and Ruan Hongling in silence. She was afraid that her master would just let Ziyuan go, so she couldn't help but said loudly: "You are the one who belongs to the Zhengyi Sect."
Is this a place where you can come and leave as you please? The thousands of years of rules of the Zhengyi Sect cannot be broken in your hands!"
Her shout immediately attracted everyone's attention to look at her.
Mao Yuchang took a deep look at her and sneered in a low voice: "What a cruel heart! Do you still want to kill them all? Humph!"
Zhang Ling saw that other Taoist priests in purple robes from the Zhengyi Sect were looking at Zou Ping, with dissatisfaction in their eyes. She immediately glared at Zou Ping and shouted: "Shut up, it's your turn to speak here!"
Zou Ping's goal had been achieved. She immediately lowered her head, with a low eyebrow, but a proud smile secretly appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Zhang Ling did waver for a moment just now. It stands to reason that if Ziyuan gives up the Linggong Sect and takes over the position of leader, then their goal can be said to be achieved. However, Zou Ping's public words suddenly put the Zhengyi Sect in a difficult position.
A very embarrassing position: if Ziyuan is let go like this, the rules and dogma of Zhengyi Sect will disappear from now on, and no one will take it seriously!
Zhang Ling only hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and shouted: "Ziyuan! The state has national laws, families have family rules, and religion has dogmas. On behalf of the leader of the Zhengyi Sect, I will use the laws to punish you. Are you convinced?"
If Li Yundong was still here, Zhang Ling would never have said such a thing, but now no one is willing to stand up and speak up for Ziyuan. She is incredibly weak and weak, and even if she wants to be ruthless, she has become emboldened.
many.
Ziyuan had long expected that such a situation would occur. She smiled slightly, as if the moon was closing in the clear clouds, and said lightly: "I'm convinced!"
Zhang Ling and others felt relieved immediately. She nodded and said in a deep voice, "Just be convinced!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly heard a loud shout from mid-air: "I'm not convinced!!!"
This loud shout was like a thunderbolt from the blue, immediately attracting everyone's attention to look in the direction of the sound.
Everyone saw a very beautiful woman standing in mid-air, looking at everyone with disdain and a sneer on her face.
This woman was born with an oval face, a small and voluptuous face, and a cinnabar beauty mark between her eyebrows. Although there was a mocking and contemptuous smile at the corner of her mouth, her elegant and charming appearance made people fascinated and crazy.
Zhang Liufang stared at this woman in shock, and said in surprise: "Who is this? Why, why is she so beautiful?"
Zhang Kongyun suddenly stood up, gnashing his teeth and glaring at the woman, words popping out one by one from between his teeth: "Ao! Wu!! Shuang!!!"
Every cultivator on the field heard these three words clearly. They all made a fuss and gaped at the woman with contemptuous eyes in mid-air.
