"Um?"
Xuanyuan Jingcheng had originally planned to tear off his usual cowardly and uncontroversial appearance and have a showdown with his tribe as a half-step Confucian sage, but he was forcibly interrupted by a voice that suddenly appeared behind him.
He paused and looked back into the room with some confusion: "Who is your Excellency?"
Xuanyuan Jingcheng remembered clearly that there was no one else in his room just now.
"I'm the one who can help you."
Chi Yao smiled mysteriously.
"help me?"
Xuanyuan Jingcheng was noncommittal.
"Why, don't you need it?"
Chi Yao was not in a hurry. Although Xuanyuan Qingfeng and her daughter had already been brought to Daxueping, because Xuanyuan Dapan had selected a lot of prey this time, it would take a while just to line up.
He glanced sideways at Xuanyuan Jingcheng, his sharp eyes seeming to be able to see through all his disguises, and directly see through the awe-inspiring righteousness hidden in his literary courage.
"Do you want to defeat Xuanyuan Great Pan just by relying on your awe-inspiring aura that can barely reach the realm of celestial phenomena?"
Xuanyuan Jingcheng fell silent.
At this moment, he no longer had the intention to investigate how Chi Yao knew about these scandalous things about the Xuanyuan family. When he learned that his daughter was caught by her father and was about to be sacrificed to her ancestors in Daxueping, his heart became confused.
The other party was right. Although he had been studying to cultivate his energy, even if his progress was already very fast, in the original plan, he was enough to gain the strength to die with his daughter before she became an adult and was attacked by her ancestors.
But it is a pity that God is not as good as man. Something unexpected happened to the Demon Cult, and our ancestor was accidentally injured and needed to recover as soon as possible...
This series of events added up to advance the time for Xuanyuan Dapan to attack Xuanyuan Qingfeng by two or three years.
But now, I am not ready yet!
Xuanyuan Jingcheng was silent, but the words in Chi Yao's mouth did not stop. They were like the sharpest swords piercing each other's heart.
"After Xuanyuan Dapan suffered repeated defeats, he actually wanted to follow Wang Xianzhi's path to connect the three religions. His ambition was good, but unfortunately his path went astray. He actually thought of merging Taoism's Fangzhongshu with Buddhism's Joy Zen. Get up and take dual cultivation as the foundation of immortality..."
After saying this, Chi Yao couldn't help but shook his head and secretly praised this guy as a "talent". He didn't know if he got inspiration from the allusion of Xuanyuan Huangdi's imperial daughter who ascended in three thousand days...
After thinking about this, he suddenly froze, looked at Xuanyuan Jingcheng, and asked tentatively: "Does your Xuanyuan family... have any connection with the ancient human emperor Xuanyuan family?"
"ah?"
Xuanyuan Jingcheng was stunned and replied in confusion: "It should not be possible."
"Um,"
Chi Yao nodded and continued the previous topic, "Although the path he chose is outrageous, it is still the realm of celestial phenomena. Even if the combat power is slightly lower, it is not something that you, a Confucian scholar who has barely entered the realm of celestial phenomena, can take lightly. Do you think you have any chance of winning if you go out like this? If you lose, what will happen to your wife and daughter?
"Furthermore, the crisis in the Xuanyuan family does not end with the internal situation. Even if you are lucky enough to die together with Xuanyuan Pan, have you ever thought about how to deal with the evil sect that is eyeing you? It is said that Yuan Tingshan never hides his feelings for Xuanyuan Qingfeng’s covetous heart!”
The two consecutive tortures made Xuanyuan Jingcheng's figure tremble slightly.
As a Confucian who can read books into the realm of resonance between heaven and earth, his talent and character are beyond doubt. As the direct grandson of Xuanyuan's eldest brother, Xuanyuan Jingcheng, who should have enjoyed everything, has been suppressed with blind eyes in the past twenty years. The other two brothers have been riding on his head to shit and urinate, and even suffered from his wife's self-recommendation as the ancestor. The humiliation of the furnace.
But even so, he never said a word and just read.
It can be said that it takes the Confucian "self-denial" to its extreme.
However, he also has his own bottom line and reverse scale.
——That is daughter Xuanyuan Qingfeng.
He did not stop his wife from recommending herself to the ancestor, firstly because she was really powerless at the time, and secondly because he respected his wife's own choice.
But my daughter is different.
So even though he knew very well that he was not fully prepared, he was still ready to take action this time.
Because if we don't take action, it will be too late.
In the past twenty years, I have been reading about Spring and Autumn Days, Taoism, Wuwei, and Buddhism. Isn’t it just to tell my ancestor face to face that his so-called integration of the three religions is nothing more than bullshit?
This was Xuanyuan Jingcheng's decision just now.
But if someone could give him a more stable guarantee...
He withdrew his gaze and carefully looked at the stranger who was talking wildly about how he could help him.
Wearing a navy blue shirt, the style is not like that of the Central Plains. His slender figure does not look thin but has a sense of wild strength. His face is very young, probably only in his early twenties.
Such a young man actually came to me and told me that he could help deal with Xuanyuan Dapan...
Xuanyuan Jingcheng's eyes were a little complicated, and then he suddenly thought of something, and tentatively asked with a little hesitation: "Your Majesty the Demon Lord?"
Nowadays, Chi Yao's evil reputation has spread all over the world, and his appearance is no longer as unknown as before.
While the world is shocked by his record, there are also some people who are betting on his true age.
You can guess whether he is forty, sixty, or one hundred years old, but no one believes that he is only in his twenties.
Xuanyuan Jingcheng didn't believe it at first, but after this close contact, he felt the vitality in the other person's body that was almost overflowing... He could at least be sure that talking about being sixty or a hundred years old was nonsense. , the person in front of him is at the peak of his physical condition.
"Good eyesight."
Chi Yao didn't care about his identity being revealed, "How about the proposal I just made?"
If there could be Chi Yao, the decisive master who single-handedly defeated Longhu Mountain, the Xuanyuan family's problems at this time would naturally not be a problem.
However, Xuanyuan Jingcheng was not careless and asked very carefully: "There is never any unreasonable kindness in the world. What do you want to get?"
"what can you give me?"
Chi Yao asked rhetorically.
"After the death of our ancestors and Xuanyuan Guoqi, the entire Xuanyuan clan in Huishan can surrender to the Demon Sect and be driven by you!"
Xuanyuan Jingcheng was shocked as soon as he opened his mouth.
You must know that the Xuanyuan family is not a small one in the world. In addition to being the two heroes in Jianzhou and Longhu Mountain, it is also known as the three major ones in the entire Central Plains along with the Wu family Jianzhong and the Xishu Liu family. The martial arts family can be said to be one of the most prestigious pillars of the righteous path!
Such a force generally values reputation more than life and interests. The words of surrendering to the Demonic Cult...anyone who comes to hear it will get up in arms.
But Chi Yao was not moved at all. Instead, he asked with a smile: "That's it? Do you think Xuanyuan Dapan will choose to die heroically in front of me, or live an ignoble existence?"
"..."
Xuanyuan Jingcheng's heart sank.
He knew this ancestor very well. If he really had such a strong temper, how could he give up his original best swordsmanship after losing to Li Chungang and Gu Jiantang?
If you are forced to do so by your wealth and life, it will be a matter of time before you give in.
"It seems you have figured it out too,"
Chi Yao raised the corner of his mouth, "If I choose your plan, what will be left of Huishan in my hands? What's the point of a group of wastes that don't even have second grade to me? Xuanyuan Dapan is a martial artist in the realm of celestial phenomena, even if his combat power is It’s a bit watery, but it’s still a rare card, plus a first-grade Xuanyuan national weapon...what do you compare with him?”
Xuanyuan Jingcheng reluctantly defended: "But Xuanyuan Dapan and the others will definitely not surrender sincerely, and with them around, it will be difficult for your sect to truly control the upper and lower reaches of Huishan..."
But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Chi Yao with a wave of his hand: "I don't care if they are sincere or fake? Do you think I will lack the means to control my subordinates? As for truly mastering Huishan, it is nonsense, in my opinion The entire Huishan Mountains are not as useful as a subordinate who is in the realm of celestial phenomena!"
Xuanyuan Jingcheng's face looked a little ugly.
He had already pointed out the dangers and hidden dangers of conquering Xuanyuan Great Pan, but he did not expect Chi Yao, the leader of the Demon Cult, to be so conceited, thinking that he could perfectly control a warrior in the Celestial Realm.
If a warrior in the Celestial Realm was placed on one end of the scale, he really couldn't think of what could be used to balance it on the other end. But since the other party was talking so much to me, it was obvious that he had not really decided to choose Xuanyuan Dpan.
So he simply gave up thinking and asked directly: "So what do you want? As long as you can take good care of your wife and daughter, I can agree to it!"
"very good,"
Finally, after receiving Xuanyuan Jingcheng's promise, a sincere smile appeared on Chi Yao's face and he said word by word, "I want you!"
"!"
Xuanyuan Jingcheng was startled. Of course he didn't think of going astray, but he was a little surprised, "I am a disciple of Confucianism."
“What about Confucianism?”
Chi Yaohuan didn't care, "Buddhas can be possessed by demons, so what does it matter if Confucianism is concerned? To tell you the truth, my conception of the six heavenly demons under my command include Taoist demons, Buddhist demons, Confucian demons, sword demons, and sword demons."
Xuanyuan Jingcheng was shocked by the courage of this young demon lord, but he was also puzzled. It was said that there would be six demons. Why did he only say five?
But this is not the point. Just listen to Chi Yao continue:
"Compared to Xuanyuan Dapan, that trash who has taken the wrong path and has exhausted his potential, you have a brighter future. My demon sect is not a nursing home and does not care for trash. Even this time, I can give you a chance to clean up the family in person. Opportunities for filth…”
"Do it yourself?"
Xuanyuan Jingcheng shook his head, "My accumulation is not enough. I can only barely reach the realm of celestial phenomena. There is a high probability that I will not be the opponent of Xuanyuan Dapan."
"It doesn't matter,"
Chi Yao knocked on the table, "Since I said that, I am naturally prepared. From the celestial phenomena to the Confucian sages, the most important thing is the fate of heaven and earth. And the thing I am most indispensable for now is this thing. After this battle, you You can have a lot of time to win back your wife, teach your daughter, and reshape the Xuanyuan family's atmosphere..."
After a long silence, Xuanyuan Jingcheng looked solemn. After unfurling his sleeves and robe, he bowed his hands and said, "Xuanyuan Jingcheng, I have met the leader."
In an instant, a lucky purple lotus popped out from Chi Yao's fingertips and floated leisurely towards Xuanyuan Jingcheng.
The Purple Golden Lotus blended into the body of the man in scholar's shirt without any hindrance, like a phantom.
The next moment, wind and thunder suddenly rose in the sky, dark clouds rolled in, and there was a faint purple energy across the sky.
At first, there were only a few traces of the purple energy, but then it expanded unstoppably, as if the sun was rising in the east, purple flowers swallowing the sky, melting the dark clouds, thunder and lightning, and violent winds in the sky one by one, becoming the main color of the sky.
This kind of phenomenon naturally attracted attention. Not only Huishan, but also the Longhu Mountain next door caused some commotion.
"Brother, look."
Zhao Xichuan, a sloppy old Taoist, was the first to discover the strange phenomenon in the sky. At his reminder, the remaining Celestial Masters in Longhu Mountain all raised their heads.
"The awe-inspiring purple energy, this is the image of a saint from the Confucian sect! It's actually in Huishan? How is this possible?!"
Zhao Xiyi, the oldest person, exclaimed.
Unlike Buddhism and Taoism, although Confucianism accounts for most of the luck in the court, for hundreds of years there have been few true saints in the realm of land gods.
Besides, even if he wanted to come out, he should be in the Zhang family of Yanshenggong in the north. How could he be in the Xuanyuan family? Just because of that Xuanyuan Dapan in the filthy and chaotic clan?
They were puzzled.
…
…
Even the heavenly masters and angels in Longhu Mountain couldn't understand it, let alone the people from the Xuanyuan family in Huishan.
Because the weather was so majestic that it obscured the entire Huishan Mountains from seeing its true origin, most of them thought it was Xuanyuan Pan who had made a breakthrough in the healing process!
However, before the joy in their hearts could rise, they were interrupted by a loud shout.
"No Daoist scholar has the courage to make the world sink, the land and the sea!"
After Xuanyuan Jingcheng received the luck blessing from the Demon Sect, his aura instantly surged.
He turned around and took two steps toward the door.
In the first step, the wind and thunder exploded, the tornado roared, and it entered the celestial realm!
In the second step, the wind disappears and the clouds stop, the purple sun rises across the sky, and the gods enter the land!
Then, this man in a Confucian shirt who always looked sickly suddenly rose into the air and flew towards Daxueping, the highest and most respected place in Huishan!
"Xuanyuan Jingcheng, please let our ancestors die!"
Finished speaking.
With him as the center of the circle, layers of water on the snowy plain exploded outward.
At that moment, nine thunderbolts came from the sky.
…
…
Ten days later.
In a tavern at the foot of Zhulu Mountain, there was a storyteller waving a gavel and talking eloquently.
"...You haven't seen that that day, under the enlightenment of the Demon Lord, the Confucian Demon Master suddenly became enlightened. Once he became a saint, the storm suddenly surged and the earth was turned upside down. Even the thousands-mile-long Huishan Mountain gave him a palm Snapping from the middle, he swept away all the dirt and grime on the snowy plains in one breath. It was so satisfying and hearty!"
Under his description, the guests present all became excited after listening to it. They wished they could use their own bodies to be enlightened by the devil and taste the feeling of breaking the mountains and breaking the sea.
In the corner, there were an old, two young and three dusty figures listening silently.
One of them suddenly sighed: "It's a pity that we hurriedly rushed and were still a step too late, and we missed so many wonderful things! I didn't expect that this demon lord is like the legendary monk, and has the ability to enlighten people. If I can give it to the little one, If I do this, can I become a Sword Immortal directly?"
The young man next to him, who had the most heroic face among the three, twitched his lips and thought to himself: "What enlightenment? Doesn't it sound like he found a traitor in the Xuanyuan family to help? As for breaking a mountain with a palm, I'm afraid it's not that A demon lord fights on his behalf, right? So it’s most likely just to win people’s hearts.”
Just when they were admiring or slandering, Chi Yao and Huang Longshi met again on the top of Zhulu Mountain.
"How was the inspection?"
"Qualifications and character are both top-notch,"
Huang Longshi stroked his beard, "But I'm not sure whether I can do what you expect."
Chi Yao spread his hands and had a bit of a rogue temperament: "Can you find a more suitable candidate?"
"...Forget it, just call him up the mountain for the final test."
Before Huang Longshi finished speaking, the beautiful eyes of the cat-riding girl beside him lit up.
