More than ten years ago, the Shenhuo Sect was located in the middle area between Binghan Palace and Phoenix Villa. It was powerful, with four Dharma Kings, five hair protectors, and nine Shenhuo Envoys. It was well-known in the world and almost everyone knew about it.
The Shenhuo Sect has strict rules and regulations, and has never done anything treacherous or evil, nor has it participated in the struggle between the Jianghu forces. Therefore, it has always coexisted with the nine major forces in the Jianghu, but their behavior is quite tyrannical, and they often Cause dissatisfaction to others.
Later, for unknown reasons, the Binghan Palace was dissatisfied, coupled with the usual grudges, and under the instigation, that tragic battle finally broke out.
After more than a month of siege, the masters of the Shenhuo Sect were reduced to seventy-eight, and all the disciples in the sect were killed. After the death of the leader Di Chen and the godmother Dugu Yiyi, eight major forces invaded the main hall of the Shenhuo Sect, and the Shenhuo Sect was completely destroyed. .
In the end, with Mu Zili's toughness and Abbot Kongci's compassion, Di Kun and the remaining members of the Shenhuo Cult were saved and allowed to live in seclusion in Yinfeng Ridge.
However, Xia Zheng and others were not willing to give in. They always wanted to revive the Shenhuo Sect. Finally, they were recommended by the God of Killing and joined the Heavenly Mountain. Zheng and others joined forces with Shen Moyu to destroy the Mu family first, and then took the opportunity to eliminate the eight major forces, but they did not expect that God would not follow their wishes. In the end, they fell short and failed. In the end, they were discovered by the Poison King, so they conspired to , wanting to take action against the Poison King.
The Poison King knew the purpose of these people, but did not reveal it. He drank poisoned wine and died due to self-blame and guilt. He wanted to persuade a few people. However, several people felt guilty because of the Poison King's suicide. In addition, all the forces were still there. Now, the situation is over, and all activities have ceased.
Just when Xia Zheng and others had given up completely, they never thought that the Sixteen Swords of Zhu Xian would reappear in the world, and someone prepared a life-and-death game. So Xia Zheng and others rekindled hope, hoping to use the wind and waves to set sail again and embark on the journey. On the road to reviving the Shenhuo Cult.
However, God's will played a trick on people. Just when a few people were fully prepared, they never thought that four words came from the sky: "Those who spread rumors will die!"
Who dares to disobey God’s orders?
Xia Zheng and others are riding a tiger and hope to be reborn. In order to revive the Shenhuo Sect with the help of the power from the sky, to use Mu Lingtian's hand to destroy the eight major forces, and to fulfill a lie for the sky, they can only suppress the rumors. Therefore, Zhong Yiming and the others drank poisoned wine, abandoned their vehicles to protect the commander, and went to assassinate Tang Jing and others. They completed their mission and left the heavy responsibility of reviving the Shenhuo Sect to Xia Zheng alone.
In a green forest, in front of several simple tombs, soul flags fluttered in the wind, and cigarette paper rolled and flew around. Xia Zheng, wearing a light blue gown, stood in front of the tombs, with his hands behind his back, looking at the tombstones of several people when the bell rang. Frowning and sighing: "I know you guys are bent on reviving the Divine Religion, but it's a pity that the eight major forces are rampant. Only by removing the eight major forces can we have a chance to revive the Divine Religion. After so many years... we finally waited for this opportunity... It's a pity that …”
Xia Zheng's cautious eyes suddenly leaned back slightly, then stopped sighing and stood there with a sad expression.
A man trotted over, still some distance away, and shouted towards Xia Zheng: "Brother Xia... someone has entered the village."
Xia Zheng then turned around and looked at the visitor without asking, as if he already knew the visitor's identity. He calmly said to the visitor, "I understand."
Xia Zheng, who seemed to be idle, clenched his hands into fists behind his back, holding the world tightly, with a strong murderous look between his eyebrows, breathing deeply, then loosened his fists behind his back, and took a firm and heavy step. pace of.
Mu Lingtian and Luo Xue left the Shaolin Temple and still took the old mountain road. After three days of traveling, they arrived at the Poison Dragon Pond.
The village of Dulongtan looked desolate and desolate, with white lanterns hanging on every house, and there seemed to be some subtle weeping sounds.
It was not the first time for Mu Lingtian and Luo Xue to come to Poison Dragon Pond, so naturally everyone knew each other. Xia Zheng had just returned after his wife made a pot of tea for Mu Lingtian and Luo Xue.
"Young Master Mu... are you okay? I hope you'll forgive me for missing Xia Zheng." Xia Zheng strode into the yard. Before entering the house, he quickly bowed his hands and saluted, with a sad look on his face, and said politely.
Seeing Xia Zheng, Mu Lingtian and Luo Xue stood up and returned the courtesy: "I have met Senior Xia."
"Young Master Mu, please take a seat." Xia Zheng said politely, and then sat down with Mu Lingtian, looked at Mu Lingtian, and pretended to be grateful and sighed: "As for Young Master Mu, I I have already heard what Master Qi said, it is true that a hero comes from a young age, the sky has eyes."
Mu Lingtian is not a believer. He knows very well that no matter whether the rumors come from Poison Dragon Pond or not, as long as the matter he is investigating involves Poison Dragon Pond, it means that the people in Poison Dragon Pond have not truly lived in seclusion, and those who entered the village from Mu Lingtian At that moment, Mu Lingtian was more sure of his thoughts, so Mu Lingtian seemed to be looking for the source of the rumors, but in fact he just wanted to know more about the reasons for what happened back then.
"Thank you, Senior Xia." Mu Lingtian said with a slight smile, then looked outside the house, pretending to be curious and asked: "I wonder what big things happened in the village?"
Xia Zheng took a deep breath, then sighed, stood up, with a sad expression, bowed his hands to Mu Lingtian with a hint of shame, and then said: "Hey, it's a long story! I...Hey, it's all my fault. Alliance Leader Mu..."
"Senior Xia, what does this mean?" Mu Lingtian's eyes were filled with a hint of coldness, but he deliberately pretended to be confused. He quickly stood up and supported Xia Zheng who was saluting, and asked in confusion.
Xia Zheng raised his head, looked at Mu Lingtian, pretended to be helpless and a little angry, frowned and explained: "I am dissatisfied with Mu Shaoxia, Zhong Yiming and others... turned out to be the spreaders of the Frost Snow Ice Soul rumor back then! I...Although I only found out a few days ago, Xia Zheng couldn't repay the kindness that Alliance Leader Mu showed me to the Divine Fire Cult by being shattered into pieces. No matter what, I am guilty of negligence. I also ask Mu Shaoxia to grant me a death to repay Mu. The kindness of the alliance leader."
Mu Lingtian knew very well that Xia Zheng was an old fox, hiding very deeply, and that Xia Zheng was definitely not an ordinary person, and must be a very formidable opponent. The purpose of his coming to Poison Dragon Pond this time could not be hidden from Xia Zheng. If he pretended to be anything, I don't know, but that made Xia Zheng know that he was lying, and he became more defensive about himself. Therefore, although Mu Lingtian didn't have any trouble in his heart, he stared at Xia Zheng with his dark eyes and a slightly murderous look, pretending to be... Startled, he asked in a cold voice: "I am... dissatisfied with Senior Xia. This is exactly why I came here this time. I also asked Senior Xia for advice."
