"Wow--"
The rainstorm became heavier and heavier. The rain hit Yang Chen, and the electric light was instantly turned into blue smoke.
Yang Chen glanced around the surroundings solemnly, and suddenly a thunderbolt from his palm struck a big tree next to the town and said, "Let's go."
After saying that, he retreated into the town like lightning.
This place has been exposed, and the Rain Master's Talisman Edict has been taken away, making it impossible to erect a statue. Staying here will only attract further attacks, so it is better to retreat.
The rest of the Taiping Cult members immediately withdrew, quickly retreating into the town and heading to the other side.
In this case, they should be able to withdraw from the other side and enter the mountain.
"Chase." Mingyang blocked the rain with his true energy and was about to catch up, but was stopped by Zhong Shenxiu.
"Don't give up the chase," Zhong Shenxiu's figure appeared in front, blocking the path of pursuit. He just heard him say, "It's important to settle the people."
Although this fierce battle lasted for a short time, it had a considerable impact on the people. Even if Zhong Shenxiu and Mingyang deliberately let the people leave before entering the venue, some people would inevitably be injured or even die.
There were many people wailing on the ground right now.
the most important is······
Mingyang looked towards the town and saw figures blocking the road in the rain, staring at him with fear and resentment.
"These people have all surrendered to the Taiping Religion, Senior Brother Zhong..."
Mingyang was about to admonish him, but he saw Zhong Shenxiu's indifferent eyes swept away, and there was a sudden pain where his eyes fell, as if a knife blade had pierced his chest.
"Benevolent people love others, do you need me to teach you?" Zhong Shenxiu said lightly, "Before, you hurt people out of necessity. Now you are actively hurting people. Aren't you afraid of the Tao Fruit's backlash?"
"What is Dao Fruit? The fruit of the Dao. If you allow its fruit, you must practice the Dao. If you tolerate the Dao Fruit of a gentleman, you should practice the Dao Fruit. Even if it is completely integrated, you must not violate it easily. Your Dao Fruit ability, now How much effect is left?"
Mingyang was silent for a moment.
Because his ability as a gentleman has indeed declined.
[Wealth cannot be lascivious] and [Might cannot be subdued] are not good feelings, [poorness cannot be moved] because it affects the body's ability, Mingyang can clearly detect the weakening.
"Place the people, and if anyone tries to cause trouble, they will be captured directly. Those who are violent can be killed."
Zhong Shenxiu looked at the big tree that was hit by the lightning in his palm, and said: "Let everyone pay attention, there must be die-hard Taiping Sect followers among the people."
Yang Chen struck the tree with lightning from his palm, not to vent his anger, but to remind Zhong Shenxiu that he could attack the people in the town at any time. If he was really pushed into a hurry, Yang Chen would definitely use the people as hostages to facilitate his retreat.
If Zhong Shenxiu insists on pursuing him, it will be difficult for the people in this town to survive.
"Yes." Mingyang responded.
Zhong Shenxiu glanced at him, the indifference in his eyes gradually faded away, and he became a little more humane, "In my Confucian practice, the most important thing is the heart. If the heart is flawed, no matter how high the realm is, it will be nothing more than a castle in the air. . Remember to be clear about your body and mind at all times, so as not to let your loyal heart become dusty."
"I would like to listen to my senior brother's teachings."
Mingyang bowed his head, and then said: "Senior brother, do you still want to pray for rain tomorrow as usual?"
"as usual."
Zhong Shenxiu said leisurely: "This time I killed the Yao Shen Sect's Floating River Dragon in the White Mountains and Black Waters, and got his dragon beads. Before returning, I used the dragon beads to collect a river, which was enough to buy Fufeng County some time. Take advantage of this time to move water clouds from the three states, and the drought will be relieved by then."
"Senior brother, you are mighty." Upon hearing this, Mingyang bowed again and bowed deeply.
Dragons have dragon beads, and dragons also have dragon beads. They are the crystallization of their own strength and have the ability to absorb water.
However, in today's world, the real demon species is almost extinct. The demon cultivators are ultimately human beings. If you use your human body to contain the dragon's Dao Fruit, if you want to condense the dragon beads, you need to completely transform into a dragon. That also means that this dragon has reached the sixth level of perfection, and it only needs Dao Fruit and rituals to reach the fifth level.
Being able to kill this dragon shows how talented Zhong Shen is, and Mingyang is naturally amazed.
"What about the Rain Master's talisman?"
"As long as the Rain Master's Talisman is not in the hands of the Taiping Sect, it's not a bad thing. Now that the Talisman has been taken away by someone, I can just take a look. There are a few people in Yongzhou who are afraid of chaos in the world."
Zhong Shenxiu stood in the rain, looking at the vast rain curtain, "Let's see how many of them can try my sword."
······
······
On the other side, Yang Chen led his men to retreat into the mountains. Seeing that the pursuers had not yet arrived, they stopped temporarily.
His thunder eyes flashed with lightning, and he suddenly stared at the young Taoist priest who was following him, "Where is Taoist Mingzhen?"
In terms of who Yang Chen was most dissatisfied with during this fierce battle, it was the two Taoist priests from the Shangqing Sect.
After all, Xiao Jiuniang made an appearance, Taoist Mingzhen attacked Zhong Shenxiu with one move, "One Qi Big Grab", and then disappeared without even showing his face.
If he were a member of the Taiping Sect, Yang Chen would have struck him down with a thunderbolt, and Ming Zhengdian would have punished him.
When attacking one's own people, one strikes at the right opportunity, facing the enemy, not even fishing on the edge, and no one is seen.
"Young Master Yang, please calm down for the time being."
Fang Yesheng faced those thunderous eyes with a dark heart, but he still maintained his airs and said calmly: "It is inconvenient for our sect to reveal its identity, so we have to hide in secret. This is also for the sake of future plans. I hope you will forgive me."
"In addition, Uncle Master has secretly followed the two sneaky people pretending to be members of your sect. We only need to follow the marks left by Uncle Master to catch up with these two people and retrieve the Rain Master Talisman. "
Why expose your identity inconveniently, isn’t it just to get away?
As long as they are not openly enemies of the imperial court, even if it is discovered that the Shangqing Sect is colluding with the Taiping Sect, the imperial court will still tolerate it.
He cherishes his life for great things, no wonder he has been suppressed by the imperial court and the Three Emperors Faction for so many years.
Yang Chen sneered at this so-called difficulty, but seeing that Taoist Mingzhen had followed the enemy, he would not pursue it now.
"Lead the way." He said immediately.
The most urgent task is to recover the Rain Master Fu Zhao.
Yang Chen took the lead and went ahead with several masters, flying through the mountains and forests, while the remaining followers evacuated to other villages and towns.
Linshan Town is not the only village that the Taiping Sect has secretly assimilated. Any place where there is no township head appointed by the imperial court, that is, a cultivator who accommodates the land's justice and fruit, there are traces of the Taiping Sect's presence.
Linshan Town became the temporary destination for everyone just because it was the closest to the county town.
Without this place, there is another place.
Unknowingly, the Taiping Sect has spread throughout Yongzhou.
At this time, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and even a few miles away from Linshan Town, the torrential rain could still be seen.
"Stop, stop, stop!"
In mid-air, Feng Manlou hurriedly called to stop, "The rain master Fu Zhao is spreading rain continuously. If it continues, there will be a severe drought in the surrounding counties."
