The two little girls, Yang Erni and Chu Yan, still hadn't been able to see their master. Before they arrived at the capital of the Zhou Dynasty, they heard about the Taiyi Sect and the news that their master had left.
So the two little girls were a little disappointed at the moment. They were walking fast enough. In order to see the master as soon as possible, they suffered a lot along the way. But now, all these hardships were in vain, so they slowed down their pace.
Since the master has left, there is no need for them to continue moving forward. After all, according to what they have learned along the way, since the Taiyi Sect has been destroyed, the academy and the sword-washing pool should return soon. According to Mr. Chen, That is, now that the academy has become the target of public criticism, it is best not to walk outside as an academy disciple.
However, Mr. Chen also felt sorry for the two little girls. They had traveled thousands of miles to come here and it was a miserable journey. However, the two little girls did not frown or complain. Naturally, Mr. Chen knew that they wanted to see their master. Urgent mood.
Now that the master has not seen him, he has to return. It would be a bit cruel for the two little girls, so Mr. Chen found a place nearby to stay and planned to let the two little girls rest for a few days and wait for them. After the gap in my heart has almost calmed down, I will consider returning.
Although the academy has now become the target of public criticism, and may even be regarded as enemies by the entire world, few people really have the courage to take action against the disciples of the academy.
To put it bluntly, the Academy can even destroy the Taiyi Sect. Now all the forces are afraid of avoiding the people in the Academy, so they will not provoke them.
But Mr. Chen never expected that this stop would actually cause trouble. As soon as their group entered an inn, they heard the guests in the inn discussing Taiyi Sect.
When talking about the battle between Taiyi Sect, Academy and Sword Washing Pool, it is natural to mention Li Xiuping, the instigator of all this.
Only one person said: "I didn't expect that the academy and Xijianchi would join forces this time, and I didn't expect that Kunlun Mountain behind Taiyi Sect would not show up." Another person said: "If you ask me, even if the academy and Xijianchi join forces, It may not be possible to destroy the Taiyi Sect. You may not know. I heard that in the attack on the Taiyi Sect this time, in addition to the Guanchao Academy and the Sword Washing Pond, there are also demons." As soon as these words came out, the entire inn was in an uproar, and everyone's They all looked at the person who said this.
"Really?" someone asked. The man then said: "It's absolutely true. According to the information I got, Xi Jianchi and the Academy jointly attacked Taiyi Clan. They were originally evenly matched, but at this time, a large number of powerful demons suddenly appeared, and Taiyi Clan was completely defeated. "Someone on the side said: "So, does Li Xiuping have collusion with the demons? What about the academy and Xijianchi..." The person who said that there were demons attacking Taiyimen then said: "Taiyimen and Xijianchi..." I am afraid that I was also kept in the dark. I heard that the Sword Washing Pond has come forward to explain it, and Guanchao Academy has a similar statement." He glanced at everyone, and then said: "If not, then why is Li Xiuping leaving in such a hurry? , he fled after being admitted to the hospital." Someone said: "So, the rumor that Li Xiuping defected to the demon clan is true?"
"Nine times out of ten, it can't be fake. Don't think about it. He went south before and there was no news for six years. If he hadn't taken refuge with the demons, how could he have come back alive from the land occupied by the demons? As soon as he came back, He destroyed the Taiyi Sect and then fled to the East China Sea. Don’t forget, the East China Sea is now also occupied by the Demon Clan. If he hadn’t taken refuge with the Demon Clan, how could he have just come back and left in a hurry? Or should he go to the place occupied by the Demon Clan.” The other people in the inn nodded again and again, thinking that this person was right.
Seeing everyone nodding, the man continued: "If it were you, if you had accomplished the feat of destroying a holy land, would you be so anxious to leave? At least you should get some benefits from the Taiyi Sect, right? That is one of the seven holy lands. One, with the foundation he possesses, even an immortal would find it hard not to be tempted." Everyone nodded again.
"Fart!" a voice suddenly sounded, immediately attracting everyone's attention. The speaker was a little girl who looked to be eleven or twelve years old. She was accompanied by a little girl who was about the same age as her but older. In addition, there was an old man dressed as a Confucian scholar, a Taoist and a Taoist priest. A rich man.
The girl looked at everyone angrily and continued: "My master will never take refuge in the demons. If anyone dares to slander my master again, don't blame me for being rude to him." Everyone frowned and looked at This little girl, and the group of people behind this little girl.
Master? Is she talking about Li Xiuping? According to rumors, when Li Xiuping went south, he did take in two disciples, but no one had seen the specific kind of disciples. Now it seems that this little girl should be one of them.
It was Chu Yan who spoke. In fact, it was not just Chu Yan, Yang Erni was also angry. When it comes to being grateful to Li Xiuping, Yang Erni is more grateful than Chu Yan. Naturally, she cannot tolerate others talking about her master like this. However, Yang Erni has a relatively calm temperament. In addition, she has been studying behind closed doors in the academy for these years, and this You will naturally think about the rumors you hear on the road.
But Chu Yan doesn't know that. Anyone who dares to speak of her master is not allowed. Mr. Chen didn't expect that Chu Yan would jump out directly. When he tried to stop him, it was already too late. As for Huoling Zhenren and the blue water unicorn, they looked indifferent.
For Huoling Zhenren, if there is any trouble, the academy will be there to take care of it. Even worse, there is a great demon in the god-transformation stage by his side, who can almost settle everything.
Of course, the main reason was that he had followed Li Xiuping before and experienced various things with Li Xiuping, so in his opinion, even if these two little girls poked a hole in the sky, their master could fix it.
In short, in the eyes of this old master, there is nothing in the world that Li Xiuping cannot settle. No, even Taiyi Sect, one of the Seven Holy Lands, has been settled.
As for the blue water unicorn, he didn't care at all. Anyway, when it came time for him to take action, he wouldn't be soft-hearted, and in his opinion, these people in front of him were just like ants, no matter how much trouble these two little girls made , it only needs to ensure the safety of these two little girls.
At this time, a young man in black clothes stood up and said, "So, Li Xiuping is your master?" Chu Yan stared at him and nodded: "Exactly." The young man nodded, He smiled and said: "Since you said that your master would not take refuge with the demons, I would like to ask you, if your master had not taken refuge with the demons, how could he have survived five years in the south occupied by the demons without any harm? How could he have been able to attack during the attack? When the Taiyi Sect invited help from the demon clan? Why did you flee to the East China Sea in a hurry after destroying the Taiyi Sect? If I guessed correctly, you probably haven't even seen your master, right?" Chu Yan hadn't spoken yet. Yang Erni said: "My master has his own reasons for doing things. How can you question it?" The young master touched his palm and said: "As expected of Mr. Li's disciple, he is really overbearing." He glanced around and then said: "That's not the case. What do you think of Mr. Li, but everyone in the world hopes that Mr. Li can come out to explain, or the academy can come out to explain. The demons invaded our human world and killed our innocent humans. The previous war is still vivid in our minds. The whole In the world, no matter the human race or the demon race, they are at odds with the demon race. However, Mr. Li uses the demon race as a helper to deal with his fellow tribesmen who have resisted the demon race together. Shouldn't we question it?" Everyone immediately agreed: "That's exactly what it is." With everyone's agreement, the young master continued: "Regardless of what grudges Mr. Li has with the Taiyi Sect, the demons are still watching outside, but Mr. Li ignores the overall situation and only cares about his personal grudges. , just for a moment of pleasure, directly destroyed a major force that could resist the demon clan. Where does Mr. Li care about the safety of the entire human race? May I ask that the academy, which has always been based on the principle of establishing life for the people and creating peace for all generations, cares about the world and the common people? Where?" These words immediately aroused the echo of everyone in the entire inn, making Mr. Chen feel a little embarrassed and didn't know how to deal with it.
He was not involved in the specific situation of the Taiyimen battle, so he naturally didn’t know. However, judging from what he heard along the way, something unexpected did happen, and what this person said was indeed very reasonable. No matter what he said, , the hidden danger of the demon clan has not yet been resolved, and at this time, it would be unreasonable for Li Xiuping himself, the academy, or the Sword Washing Pond to attack the Taiyi Sect.
Likewise, Mr. Chen also had murderous intentions. For this person to stand up at this time and speak such a lofty speech to lead others to stand on the opposite side of the academy, it can be said that he is heartbroken. To say that there is no person or force behind this person, Mr. Chen will not do anything. believe.
The academy has always been good at this kind of thing, and as one of the administrators of the academy, he can naturally see the connection at a glance.
It's just that if he takes action at this time, the academy will really be unable to defend himself. In the final analysis, he is just a gentleman in the academy who is responsible for teaching students. He will occasionally be responsible for some matters, but it is not his turn to intervene in real major matters.
It was Master Liu Shan and Mr. Qi who made the decision to attack the Taiyi Sect this time. Of course, only Master Liu Shan and Mr. Qi knew what the plan was. If he took action at this time, would he damage the academy? plan?
This must be carefully considered. These words made Yang Erni unable to answer, but Chu Yan curled her lips and said: "As long as my master is here, what do those demons mean?" He pointed at everyone present and said slowly: "Don't Forgot, it was my master who gave humans the way to deal with the demons, and it was my master who refined countless magical weapons for you so that you could compete with the demons. Now that the demons have retreated, humans have gained temporary peace and tranquility. But you pushed out the greatest hero to question the crime, and your consciences were eaten by dogs?" She snorted coldly, and then said: "If you really have the guts, go to my master and question him head-on. If you make irresponsible remarks behind his back, isn't it just petty? Human behavior?" These words made those people lower their heads, making Mr. Chen and others feel very happy!
