"Of course what Fourth Brother said makes sense, but at present, the Dharma Protectors are very powerful and they are facing a formidable enemy. It may not be easy to get rid of them justifiably." Although the Fifth Elder was moved, he still had some sense.
The Guardians are basically masters recruited by the sect leader personally. There are many crooked ones among them, but there are also outstanding masters.
For example, the Western Protector Ba Dao, the Southern Protector Duan Mou, and the Blood Zen Protector Kong Jian are all rare masters.
Among them, Protector Nan is the most unfathomable, and even the fifth elders have little confidence that they can defeat him.
And although the Elders claimed to be direct descendants, when the Blood River Sect Master just took over, there were not just one or two people who were not optimistic about him. On the contrary, the Protector Series were all supporters of the Blood River Sect Master.
"Lao Wu, what are you talking about?!" The fourth elder's face was full of worry, "The sect leader said that the disciples of the Blood River Sect should be as close as brothers and sisters, like a family."
Fifth Elder: "..."
"What's more, now, the enemy is facing us, and the Central Plains Wulin may attack at any time. How can we brothers fight against each other at such a moment?!"
The fifth elder’s face was expressionless. Do you want to listen to what you are saying? !
This is the Blood River Sect, not the Wudang Sect, so it doesn’t need such positive energy? !
And who just said that to fight against the outside world, we must keep the inside at bay!
The fifth elder did not think that his fourth brother was schizophrenic, so he did not directly refute and waited for the next step.
"It's just that we are under great pressure now, but the situation in Zhongyuan is also worrying! The Great Elder and Chief Protector are also short of manpower!"
The fifth elder immediately understood what the fourth elder meant. It was naturally impossible to kill the masters of the guardian system, but it was not difficult to transfer them from southern Xinjiang.
And the reason for using it is justifiable.
The situation of the chief protector of the Blood River Sect is indeed not good. He was hammered by the Wushan goddess Mu Chengxue in the middle of Shu. He was unable to fight back. Not only was he seriously injured, but he also lost an important chess piece of the Tang Sect. The Blood River Sect's many years of layout fell apart.
Originally, the leader of the Blood River Sect wanted to go to Shu in person to re-establish the Blood River Sect's power.
However, there were constant surprises along the way, and the Chief Protector, who had long asked for help, had not yet received the reinforcements.
The state of the great elder in Yangzhou is not good either.
He was originally responsible for the Blood Venom Master line, cultivating the Blood River Sect's power overseas and at the same time creating the epidemic that shocked the world.
Originally, there was no problem with his plan, and Yang Qingyuan would not come to Yangzhou, but he couldn't stand up to his pig teammates!
In order to surround and kill Yang Qingyuan, the chief protector did not hesitate to use Jinbo Xunhua's flower poison.
But unexpectedly, a Wushan goddess was killed in the middle, and Yang Qingyuan was not dead.
Although he is not dead, the poison in Yang Qingyuan's body has not been cured. In order to get the antidote, Yang Qingyuan came to Yangzhou from Shuzhong, and happened to meet the Blood River Sect's plan. It was such a coincidence, like a Jianghu storybook, no coincidence would be written down.
This time, the Chief Protector indirectly tricked the Great Elder.
Although the masters here of the Great Elder did not suffer much loss, the grassroots forces were completely destroyed by the Six Gates of Yangzhou.
It is not an easy task to cultivate it again.
So the great elder is also asking for help from the headquarters.
This gave the fourth elder a reasonable and legal excuse to transfer people away from the main altar.
"Let's do this, let the Blood Zen Protector support the Great Elder, and let the South Protector and the West Protector support the Chief Protector!"
This arrangement of the fourth elder seems normal, but it is actually very sophisticated.
Among the masters in the current general altar, only Protector Nan and Protector Blood Zen pose a threat to him. Protector Blood Zen was transformed from Buddha into a demon. As we all know, blackening is ten times stronger, which is the blood Zen protector Kong Jian monk. Moreover, this monk has great potential, and his limit is not yet reached.
As for Protector Nan's martial arts, he was the leader of the Xuehe and Xiaoyao families. The Fourth Elder had never seen him use his full strength before, and his strength should not be underestimated. Mysterious people are often more likely to be feared by others.
After these two people were transferred away, the remaining four elders naturally looked down upon them.
The reason why the Western Protector Ba Dao was transferred instead of the Northern Protector was because the Northern Protector could not deal with the Seventh Elder, and the Fourth Elder could use him to check and balance the Seventh Elder.
The fifth elder also supported the arrangement of the fourth elder, but still hesitated.
"Fourth brother, although we said that we can transfer three people away, there will be less people to fight for meat for us, but now we are facing a formidable enemy. If we transfer the three of them, won't the defense of the general altar be too lax?! "
According to the intelligence they received, the opponent coming to southern Xinjiang this time was not simple.
Zhang Xuanqing, the old master of Tianshi Mansion, is a veteran master of the heavenly realm and the earth realm. He also participated in the first Blood River War.
Monk Jiejen of Jing Nian Zen Monastery, although not as good as Lao Tianshi in martial arts, is full of wisdom and tricks.
There are also two people, Zhuge Zhengwo and Liu Dufeng, who are the masters of the imperial court and the bosses who are in charge of one department.
In addition, I heard that the head of the Human Sect of the Tianren Sect will also come here.
In this way, there are five masters of the realm of law, heaven, and earth. Once the three of them leave, the power of the Blood River Sect will be on par with the Wulin Zhengdao on paper, or even one point weaker.
The fourth elder has great ambitions and desires, but that doesn't mean he is a fool.
Although he is now blinded by the blood and spirit of two masters of the Heavenly and Earth Realm, his actions are still logical and self-consistent.
"Of course I have considered what you said. The strength of both of us is basically the same, but this is under the premise that Zhuge Zhengwo and Liu Dufeng are not dead. Isn't it just for them that we have done so much?!"
If they could be captured or killed in advance, wouldn't the balance of strength between the two sides be broken? !
If they can be captured alive, the power of the Blood River Sect masters will rise to a higher level. Coupled with the geographical advantage of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, it is uncertain who will destroy whom.
Moreover, if you can besiege Liu Dufeng and Zhuge Zhengwo, you can also use these two people to build a siege and call for reinforcements.
Use them as bait to lure more masters into the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
If Liu Dufeng and Zhuge Zhengwo failed to be killed, then the Fourth Elder would have no hesitation and would immediately abandon the current main altar and run away.
The people and the Blood River Holy Law are the most precious things of the Blood River Holy Sect. As long as people are still there, the Blood River Holy Sect will still be there.
As for the main altar of the Blood River Holy Sect? ! How much is this damn place worth? ! After hearing about the prosperity of the Central Plains, the Fourth Protector has been yearning for it. When the big event is completed, they may not like this ghost place in Southern Xinjiang.
With such a plan, how can we lose? !
The advantage is mine, the flying dragon rides on the face! This is impossible to lose!
After finalizing the plan, the four elders ordered people to invite the three guardians of Xuechan, South and West.
The fourth elder pointed out that we must thoroughly implement the sect leader’s guiding ideology of marching into the Central Plains and putting penetration first.
How to invade the Central Plains is the current top priority of the Blood River Sect. As the protector of the Blood River Sect, he should set an example for ordinary Blood River disciples and take the lead in infiltrating the Central Plains and dare to attack difficulties.
The protector of the Blood River Sect must have the courage to sail across the sea when the winds and waves break.
…
Among the three, Ba Dao's side job is butchering pigs, while Kong Jian is enlightened but dedicated to reciting sutras, which means that Protector Nan is somewhat educated.
The three of them were stunned by the shouts of the fourth elder, and finally agreed to go to the Central Plains region to provide assistance.
Of course, they had their own reasons for agreeing so readily.
Ba Dao wants to find Gui Hai Yi Dao to take revenge for killing Dao Xin with one sword.
Kong Jian wants to find Cheng Kun and Xie Xun to erase his obsession.
That is, Protector Nan, he himself does not have much ambition, he just wants to live and see the scenery of a higher level, but his life experience makes him bear the blood feud of the Duan family.
Under the ideological work of the fourth elder, the three of them fully understood the necessity and urgency of going to the Central Plains region for support, so they chose to get up that day and went to Yangzhou and Yizhou respectively.
…
"Bastard!" Along with the seventh elder's scolding, a porcelain cup was thrown to the ground by the seventh elder.
Although this is a popular commodity in the Central Plains, it is not cheap in southern Xinjiang.
"In the face of a formidable enemy, he still thinks about intrigues! He is a sinner of the Blood River Sect!"
The seventh elder had already learned from his subordinates that the three guardians had left the main altar. Even with his cultivation level, he couldn't help but throw four cups in a row.
In order to weaken his power, the Fourth Elder actually transferred the three masters away at such a critical moment. Wouldn't that be equivalent to handing over the main arena to the people of the Central Plains Wulin? !
The powerful enemy currently does not care about the interests of the sect, and the anger in the seventh elder's heart is almost indescribable.
However, the Seventh Elder did not know that it was normal for the enemy to continue fighting among themselves.
Regardless of the fact that the enemy is still fighting among themselves, it seems logically unreasonable, but in fact this is the most reasonable and correct way to open it.
External pressures and temptations are most likely to affect internal situations, especially at critical time points.
Emperor Wu of Wei went south with an army of 800,000 people. The main war faction and the main peace faction in Soochow almost came to war. The eldest brother Zhang Zhao and the Jiangdong family wanted to surrender. If it hadn't been for the conclusion of the Sun-Liu Alliance, there probably wouldn't have been a battle in Chibi.
Blue Star In World War II, when the British and French forces were defeated and the United States lost its trust, Britain, which was alone overseas, also had a strong peace advocate. Even the King of England at that time planned to surrender, and conflicts between the war faction and the peace faction continued. Finally, thanks to Churchill's efforts, England stepped down from the throne with dignity.
Looking back at Blue Star's Northeast in 1946, the two elites of the New First Army, Sun Liren, and the New Sixth Army, Liao Yaoxiang, had to avoid their edge even though they were fighting 101 on the Siping battlefield. However, the conflict between the Huangpu clique and the non-Huangpu clique broke out. The internal conflict between Sun Liren, the soul of the army, and Du Guangting directly led to the defeat of the war.
Therefore, when the enemy is present, it is the moment when internal contradictions abound.
This is true for ordinary people, not to mention those greedy people in the Blood River Sect.
But the Seventh Elder is in trouble. In the Blood River Sect, he was on good terms with Protector Nan and Protector Xuechan. Now that both of them have been transferred away, the Seventh Elder is alone in the main altar and can no longer communicate with the four. The qualifications for elders to compete.
You can only obey the arrangements obediently!
——
Jade Dragon City, night.
Under the full firepower of the Blood River Sect branch, there are already houses rented or purchased by the Blood River Sect branch in the four directions of Yulong Inn. These houses are all on the front street and in the back, with the second floor for their own use.
Can we continuously monitor the Yulong Inn every day to see if there are any experts from the brigade coming in and out? !
Even at night there are people watching.
Although these do not know martial arts, they are all trained disciples of the Blood River Sect. When they are monitoring, they will try their best to avoid looking at martial arts masters.
For masters in the Dongxuan realm and above, their six senses are already extremely sharp. If they keep looking directly at them, they will soon notice it.
It's just that they can withstand ordinary masters, but facing Yang Qingyuan, who is extremely light kung fu, let alone them.
Even if you come to the cave, you can still detect his whereabouts.
Yang Qingyuan has already tried it. If he uses the special skill of "Man in the Painting", he can pass by the masters of the Dongxuan Realm as if there is no one else around, without attracting the attention of the masters of the Dongxuan Realm.
Masters of the Dongxuan Realm can judge their surroundings based on the changes in the direction of the air flow, but the "person in the painting" is different from ordinary Qinggong. It's a bit like space jumping and Zhang Laodao's shrinking into an inch. Even the airflow and light will not change between actions.
When Yang Qingyuan wanted to sneak into Yulong Inn, it was naturally impossible for these spies to detect it.
In the black night, Yang Qingyuan was like a disembodied ghost, leaping to the top of Yulong Inn in a snap of his fingers.
Even as he restrained his aura, Zhang Xuanqing and Liao Fan, who were in the Fa Tian Xiang Di Realm, did not notice his arrival.
Originally, Yang Qingyuan planned to meet the person in charge, Tie Youxia, soon.
But this night, there was still one person who was awake, sitting on the patio of the inn, looking up at the stars. This person's identity made Yang Qingyuan a little embarrassed.
However, he only hesitated for a moment, and then fell into the courtyard.
"Yayu, long time no see!"
Sheng Yayu was beautiful and graceful, with a look of surprise on her fairy-like face. She even rubbed her eyes cutely, as if she was afraid that she had seen wrongly.
"Brother Qingyuan!?"
Even after confirming that the person in front of him was real, there was still a hint of surprise on Sheng Yayu's face.
"After four years of separation, I am very relieved to see Ya Yu acting as before."
Since Thirteen ascended the throne and Yang Qingyuan left the capital, he has never seen Sheng Yayu again.
At that time, Sheng Yayu's legs had recovered more than half, and he could move as usual as long as he continued to contact Yang Qingyuan and Zhuge Zhengwo's joint exercises.
Sheng Yayu looked at Yang Qingyuan with slightly complicated eyes. A person who healed her wounds and regained her fighting strength would naturally make waves in Sheng Yayu's heart.
Yang Qingyuan is not a fool. How could he not know what the little girl is thinking? !
It's just that I once whipped a famous horse because I was drunk, for fear that my love would ruin the beauty.
He already has enough romantic debts, so he doesn't want to harm others.
"Brother Qingyuan, we are in this inn." Sheng Yayu was not a lover, so he reacted immediately and pointed to his own earrings.
For the people of the Shenhou Mansion, tracking and investigation is their essential job. They had discovered the Blood River Sect's tricks a long time ago. They just followed the plan and deliberately pretended not to know and allowed them to monitor it.
Yang Qingyuan said it was okay, "When I just opened my mouth, I used my true energy to cover an area of 30 feet around us, so that no one outside could hear."
"Brother Yang is here, it seems we are going to take action!" When Sheng Yayu saw Yang Qingyuan appear, he knew that the opportunity they had been waiting for had come.
