"Are you trying to show something?" Jiang Fan thought while holding his chin.
"It is originally a holy land of martial arts. How could it be so high-powered?" The handsome old man was a little puzzled.
"As you said, it has always been a transcendent holy land of rivers and lakes. Why does it seem like it is developing towards the emperor of rivers and lakes who dominates the rivers and lakes today..."
The old handsome guy was stunned for a moment, then narrowed his eyes: "Holy land of rivers and lakes, emperor of rivers and lakes...what you said...is a bit interesting..."
"It's really a bit confusing. There are still many things that are unreasonable today. For example, it is impossible for Taihua not to know that Nanchu Qianjimen is serving King Xiang, but he actually asked Yu Qingcheng to come to plead guilty, and even touched the temple. Haven’t you thought about it yourself?”
The old handsome guy said: "Although the rivers and lakes and the temples are entangled, Yitaihua will not think of these things, and his behavior is indeed a bit weird. However, although the Nanchu incident was planned by Yu Qingcheng, on the surface it seems that it is you. Because, even if Taihua doesn’t know the inside story, it’s only reasonable that he should come to you first.”
Jiang Fan shook his head: "No, Taihua will not expand the scope of this matter. Even if he intends to do something, it is impossible to offend the two royal powers at the same time. Moreover, I am just the beginning. After that, Yu Qingcheng borrows the Qianjimen to truly A large-scale cleanup has been launched, and the rivers and lakes of Nanchu are indeed filled with mourners."
Qin Xiao said: "This matter is indeed where Taihua is radical. Generally speaking, they will not care about this kind of thing. Even if those Jianghu sects ask Taihua to uphold justice, they will only send people to communicate with Nanchu. Then the coordination came up with some mediation methods, and it was blatantly forceful, which is really unreasonable."
"Put aside the behind-the-scenes intentions, I am now very concerned about whether Yu Qingcheng will come." Situ Xiao said with an inexplicable meaning.
Jiang Fan also smiled: "No, what kind of person is Yu Qingcheng? She will never do anything to weaken Xiang Chen's royal power."
Situ smiled and said: "Then, how will she deal with it? She cannot completely ignore Taihua's public edict."
Qin Xiao said: "My subordinates feel that she may not be able to shirk her status as a national master, and may even change the sect leader temporarily..."
Jiang Fan was suddenly startled: "Temporarily...change the sect leader?"
His pupils suddenly shrank: "That's interesting... If we change the sect owner, who should we change..."
Qin Xiao said: "Qianji Sect originated from the Yu family of Southern Chu, so naturally the Yu family is the most suitable..."
"Yu Chucheng..." Jiang Fan pinched his fingers: "Yes, Yu Chucheng...that cripple..."
"Yeah, it's okay to push a cripple to stand up to the thunder, but that boy is also the only male in the Yu family, so I'm afraid he won't be able to part with him." Qin Xiao said thoughtfully.
Although Qin Xiao and the others didn't know what happened in Southern Chu, under the deliberate push of Mei Yu, the news about Jiang Fan's defeat of Yu and the destruction of the city was also spread. However, after all, they were far away in Chu State. Qin Xiao could only know. It means that Xiaoyao will pay careful attention and be relatively well-informed.
"No, no." Jiang Fan waved his hand, as if he had thought of something.
"Taihua is not talking about asking for forgiveness directly, but making a petition and asking for guilt. Many people ignore this. In other words, there is a chance to plead guilty first... If the petition is properly made, there may not be real punishment... "
Jiang Fan's eyes fluctuated a little.
"That's interesting. If Yu Jiancheng is pushed to take over the Qianji Sect, whose intention is it? Back then, Yu Qingcheng had to think carefully to stabilize the power of the family..."
——
The next day was the day for Taihua to select disciples. Nine thousand people were divided into thirty venues for screening. Even so, there were only three hundred people in each venue, and it would take at least half a day to complete the selection.
Jiang Fan was not interested in this at all, and of course he would not watch it. It would be more interesting to see the animals.
Of course, this is no ordinary beast.
The most powerful beast in the Taihua Holy Land is the King of Cranes, Mo Xuedan.
Originally, with his status as the leader of Xiaoyaohui, he would never be allowed to see this strange beast.
But when Jiang Fan found Gu Qingshan, he just said one sentence——
Regarding Fuyao's expulsion from the mountain gate, if you don't want me to cause trouble, don't make me unhappy.
Gu Qingshan had no choice but to quietly lead him to a lake in the back mountain.
This lake is not too big, only about a hundred acres. It is formed by a wide waterfall hanging down the mountainside.
The waterfall is as white as snow, and the lake surface is as clear as green jade agate. Surrounded by green trees and flowers, the scenery is beautiful, like a fairyland.
There were countless huge cranes on the lake, either leisurely playing in the water or flying lightly. Jiang Fan counted them and found that there were at least twenty.
What caught his eye the most was where the waterfall fell. The water mist is steaming there and the sun is shining down, showing a gorgeous rainbow. Under the rainbow bridge, a huge red-crowned crane spreads its wings leisurely.
It was more than two feet tall, with a wingspan of nearly eight feet. It was completely white, but its wingtips, tail and inner neck were stained with ink. Its legs were made of gold, and the top of its head was as red as cinnabar. The horse is extremely powerful, like a divine mount.
"This is Mo Xuedan, right?" Jiang Fan exclaimed, "What a big one."
Gu Qingshan said: "Just take a look and leave quickly. I brought you here secretly while everyone was going to the front mountain to take care of you. If the elders find out, they won't be able to eat and carry you around."
Jiang Fan waved his hand: "Why are you so anxious? Are those Ling Sect people studying it?"
"Yes, I stayed there for a long time, observed its diet and living habits, and made a lot of records."
"Not trying to tame it?"
Jiang Fan knew that the Ling Sect had the Spirit Taming Scripture.
Gu Qingshan shook his head: "What kind of place is this? Taihua Holy Land, even the Ling Sect doesn't dare to mess around. You must know that this guy is the mount of the Holy Lord."
"Good guy! That's right!" Jiang Fan couldn't help but sigh. The saint's long eyebrows were sitting on Mo Xuedan. The scene was really similar to the arrival of a god.
"How old is it?"
Gu Qingshan shook his head: "I don't know. It is said that Taihua opened the mountain, and it is here, at least a thousand years away."
"I'll go!" Jiang Fan was very surprised, Millennium Crane King.
It’s no wonder that people in the world regard the strange beasts of mountains and seas as peerless treasures. Just the fact that they are alive is amazing.
This can also understand why Xu Fu has been looking for strange beasts in the mountains and seas, trying to study the secret of his immortality.
"I want to take a closer look."
Jiang Fan stared at Mo Xuedan and said.
He still wanted to continue to prove whether he was attracted to all the strange beasts of the mountains and seas.
Gu Qingshan frowned: "You thief, it's almost okay. I'll be in trouble if someone sees me."
Jiang Fan snorted: "You didn't test the waters with the Demon Slaying Alliance. Instead, you set your sights on Yun Fuyao. Do you think I'm really that easy to talk to?"
Gu Qingshan said: "It wasn't my idea."
"I know. But it was Taihua's idea after all. I haven't let it slip yet."
"Okay, go and have a look, but I'm warning you, don't get too close. Mo Xuedan looks elegant, but in fact, don't let strangers in. His steel beak and iron feathers are not something your small body can withstand."
Jiang Fan nodded and suddenly looked at him: "Aren't you busy with something? If they don't see anyone, they won't be able to look around, which makes them easier to detect. I can just go by myself. Just do whatever you need to do."
