But she met Bai Ze.
Bai Ze thought, if he had not met the mountain ghost in Hengshan, would the mountain ghost still be guarding the valley, stubbornly waiting for the master who would never come back?
Shangui handed Wang Zhihuan's inheritance to Bai Ze, died calmly, integrated himself into Broken Sword, and became Broken Sword's new sword spirit.
From then on, there was no longer a mountain ghost named Yao in the world, only an emotionless lackey from the outside world, the Sword Spirit without Edge Sword.
"Master, I will be obedient from now on and never make you angry again..." Pei Guoguo's voice was choked with sobs.
"Okay, okay." Tao Hongjing comforted the half-grown girl, "Xiao Liu has grown up. Master is happy and happy in his heart!"
…
Sitting on Wangfeng Mountain Road.
The season has begun, but it is still very cold in the mountains.
Lin Xiao had a shabby figure and was walking alone on the mountain road.
Someone has been waiting for him on the mountain for a long time.
The mountain wind was strong, and Lin Xiao saw Dong Xiaowan dressed in black, standing in the mountain road, with his black hair tossed by the mountain wind, like thick ink dripping in the water.
"Master Lingxiao." Dong Xiaowan looked at Lin Xiao, full of words, but when he met the man in green shirt, he only turned into four words.
"What are you doing here?" Lin Xiao just asked calmly, his eyes did not linger too much on Dong Xiaowan, and he just passed her and walked towards the purple bamboo forest.
The figure of the woman in black froze on the mountain road.
"It's nothing." Seeing that Lin Xiao had passed by, Dong Xiaowan took a deep breath and said, "I feel relieved to see that you are okay."
Lin Xiao chuckled and walked over without stopping.
He is fine.
But something happened to Tao Hongjing.
"Lin Xiao, do you hate me so much?" Dong Xiaowan suddenly turned around and looked at Lin Xiao's back. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and asked one after another, "Do you hate me so much?"
Lin Xiao stopped, but still didn't look back.
"What I hate is not you, but myself." Lin Xiao said softly, "If it had been me back then, Lao Wu wouldn't be like this."
"But things have happened, and people have to look forward, right?" Dong Xiaowan said, "Huang Yue's matter is not only yours, Senior Brother Zhao is doing it, I..."
"Stop talking." Lin Xiao interrupted Dong Xiaowan, "Let's go."
"Lin Xiao, will you forgive me only if I die?" Dong Xiaowan laughed, "Do you forgive yourself only if I die?"
"It has nothing to do with you." Lin Xiao clenched his right hand. "I don't hate you, and I have never complained about you. I only hate myself. Why don't I bear everything that I should bear on behalf of Lao Wu?"
"Haha, I understand." Dong Xiaowan smiled bitterly, his eyes red, "I shouldn't have appeared here in the first place. Master Lingxiao, if this is the case, I'm leaving."
Dong Xiaowan crossed Lin Xiao's figure and flew away against the wind.
Lin Xiao stood there, watching the leaving figure of the woman in black, closing his eyes, taking a deep breath, and suppressing the emotions surging in his chest.
Love and hatred in this world are mostly like this.
Live by love, die by hate.
No one can tell what is right or wrong. The living people have no choice but to bear their sins and search for the elusive salvation in the quagmire.
…
The new year is over and the weather is getting warmer.
The operation that Yunhai Xianmen has been preparing for a month has finally officially begun.
The exposed Demon Sect Mountain Gate in the eighteen counties of the Western Border of the Great Zhou Dynasty has been completely exposed.
The Yunhai Immortal Sect initiated the Righteous Demonic Eradication Order, gathering the three major sects in the north, Qingming Sword Sect, Huoshenshan, and Xuankong Temple, to prepare to launch an attack on the Demon Sect's mountain gate and wipe out the Demon Sect's power in the eighteen counties of the Western Territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The news spread and the North was shaken.
The Yunhai Immortal Sect is truly the first sect of the Taoist sect in the Northern Territory. Its profound heritage can only be matched by the Jixia Academy of Qi State and Lingyin Temple, the Buddhist sect's mountain sect that has recently emerged in the Northern Territory.
As soon as the order of the Righteous Way to eliminate demons was issued, the forces from all directions gathered together, and the members of the Righteous Way in the North gathered spontaneously to prepare for a battle between good and evil with the Demon Sect Mountain Gate in the eighteen counties of the West.
The temple planning is at a critical moment, and the all-out war among the Seven Kingdoms will start in an instant as long as the horn blows.
Perhaps it was Song Zhiwen, the Confucian swordsman of the Song Dynasty, who took the lead in disrupting the general trend of the world and started a battle for dignity against the Zheng Kingdom.
Perhaps it was because of the death of Zhao Weiyuan of the Immortal Sect of Yunhai that the pusher behind him triggered the war between Yan State and Great Zhou Dynasty.
But this may not have happened yet, as the northern rivers and lakes are already preparing to start a war.
In this battle, the Taoist sect and the Buddhist sect joined forces. The Taoist sect Yunhai Xianmen, Qingming Sword Sect, Huoshenshan, and the Buddhist sect Xuankong Temple formed an alliance. The four forces gathered together, leaving aside Jixiaxue who was fighting against the Confucian sword Song Zhiwen. Palace, we have to do something big.
This matter is far more than just a blow to the Demon Sect's mountain gate, it also has the intention of knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger.
To put it bluntly, they are trying to scare the monkeys and warn the alien races rising in the north to restrain their minions, otherwise they will be the next to be punished by the righteous way in the north.
Therefore, this battle can only be won, not defeated.
Moreover, it must be a comprehensive victory and a beautiful victory.
At the summit of the Tianzhu Summit of the Immortal Sect in the Sea of Clouds, the four forces of the righteous path came forward in person. Master Chunyangzi personally came forward to discuss the plan to eliminate demons with Xiao Jing, the master of the Qingming Sword Sect, Zhou An, the master of the Vulcan Mountain, and Master Yuantong, the abbot of the Xuankong Temple.
On the same day, the four forces completed their deliberations, and the elite members of the sect quickly gathered together. Three days later, they met in Cangzhou County, the western border, and headed straight for the Demon Sect Mountain Gate.
The battle between good and evil begins instantly.
The Yunhai Immortal Sect is headed by the Duansui Peak Sword Holding Hall. The master of the Sword Holding Hall, Xue Xing, and the elites of the Immortal Sect. On the day of the expedition, five hundred disciples gathered at the Xuanwu Dojo of Tianzhu Peak. The headmaster Chunyangzi personally swore in and taught Xue Xing the sword. .
"Destroy the Demon Sect and show off our power!" Xue Xing took the sword, faced the five hundred disciples of the Xuanwu Dojo, drew his sword and shouted.
"Destroy the Demon Sect and show off the prestige of our sect!" Five hundred disciples raised their arms and shouted.
"Go to war!" Xue Xing took the lead, his sword soaring into the sky.
Five hundred disciples followed closely behind, following Xue Xing with their swords, and flew out of the Tianzhu Mountain realm.
Bai Ze stood on the cliff of Zuowang Peak and witnessed five hundred swords flying neatly over the Immortal Gate and heading straight for the outside of the mountain gate.
The war begins.
The four mountain gates of the righteous path joined forces and it took only one month to capture all the five demon sect mountain gates in the eighteen counties of the Western Region.
The news spread back to Yunhai Xianmen, and there was a burst of cheers.
"Tell Xue Xing to prepare for the finishing touches." Chunyangzi received the news and passed on the order, "Following up, the Immortal Sect will send disciples to join him."
Chunyangzi's intention is very obvious, which is to use these remaining people from the Demon Sect to train the new generation of disciples under his sect.
"Yes, Master!" the disciple who sent the message ordered.
The news was quickly sent to all peaks.
"When will we set out for the expedition?" Bai Ze asked the fairy boy who sent the message after receiving the news.
"I will return to my uncle in these two days." The fairy boy said respectfully, "My uncle can make preparations in advance. During the assembly, the Heavenly Sword Order will light up at the Tianzhu Summit. When the time comes, my uncle will see the Heavenly Sword Order and go directly to Xuanwu Just dojo.”
"Okay, I understand." Bai Ze nodded.
"Uncle Master, I'll take my leave first." The fairy boy bowed and left on the crane.
"Is it our turn finally?" Bai Ze touched the hilt of the black jade sword at his waist and heard his own heartbeat.
Two months have passed since the New Year, and what Wang Han said to them before has finally become a reality.
Bai Ze couldn't hold back his inner expectations.
He is warlike by nature, and since joining the Yunhai Immortal Sect, his greatest pleasure has been to go into the mountains to find trouble for those third-level monsters.
But over time, Bai Ze felt that hunting monsters was boring.
Now I finally have the opportunity to step out of the mountain gate and fight against the Demon Sect disciples from the eighteen counties in the Western Region!
Although the five demon sect gates in the eighteen counties of the Western Region have been defeated by the four forces of the righteous path, all that is left on the scene now are the remnants of the army.
But after all, it is a real sword and a real gun, and the opponent is a human being, not those stupid third-level monsters that can be compared.
The news that Bai Ze was about to go to the Demon Sect Mountain Gate in the Eighteen Counties of the Western Region soon spread throughout the entire Zuowang Peak.
For a time, except for the third senior sister Zhuang Yan, everyone else, including Dahuang, all came to the Zizhu Forest.
"Junior brother, your cultivation level is only at the level of Zhiwei. You must be careful when you go out this time!" Pei Guoguo warned him, "If you can't fight, just run away. Do you understand? Don't you have the spirit to win the championship in the Mountain Gate Conference?" Shield? When you leave the mountain gate, you must wear the Lingxu Shield, you know?"
"I know, senior sister." Bai Ze was helpless.
"Little junior brother, senior brother has nothing for you." Chen Ping took out a one-foot-long flying sword from his arms and handed it to Bai Ze, "This is a disposable flying sword made by senior brother himself. If you take it, maybe It’ll come in handy.”
"Thank you, Fourth Brother!" Bai Ze solemnly put away the disposable flying sword.
