The three of them met for a flight, and they decided whether the half-day journey was far or near.
Along the way, we encountered several scattered fights between the disciples of the Piao Ping Sword Sect and the Sword Formation Sect. Xu Wushuang, who encountered the Jindan Stage, naturally had no scruples to resolve them, but if it was a fight in the Foundation Establishment Stage, even if his side was defeated, he would only intervene. After scaring off the opponent and not pursuing him, Zhang Xiaosheng nodded secretly. Although these people were fighting life and death, they still had a bottom line after all.
Seeing that Zhang Xiaosheng didn't seem to understand these principles, Xu Wushuang was puzzled, but he still sighed a few words without leaving any trace as an explanation. Only then did Zhang Xiaosheng learn that it was not that these people had a bottom line, but that killing people across a large realm seemed to be forbidden by heaven. Anyone who killed a person in a lower realm had more or less problems, and over time, a cross-border crossing was formed. It is an unwritten rule that no one should be killed in the Great Realm.
But not killing doesn't mean that he can't capture. Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaosheng couldn't help but secretly thought it was a fluke. He estimated that Triangle Eyebrow didn't kill him with one hit at that time. At first, he probably coveted the secret of the elixir, but later it was restricted by the rules.
The journey was basically smooth, and Xu Wushuang also explained in detail the reason for the fight between Piao Ping Sword Sect and Jian Zhen Sect.
In fact, in the past, it seemed that the cause was just a very small thing, because the two sects have been adjacent to each other for thousands of years and have always had a good relationship. Therefore, the subordinate second-rate sects and some low-level first-rate sects also have a lot of contacts. grab, grab, grab
With so much contact, it is inevitable that young male and female disciples will look at each other, and marriages often occur in many small sects. After all, most of the world of immortal cultivation is dominated by men, so once they become a Taoist couple, the woman will follow the man. go.
The woman's original sect's skills cannot be leaked to the man's sect. At most, they can learn from each other with the Taoist couple, but only the Taoist couple can only teach them to others. This can be considered a tacit understanding. After all, it has been for thousands of years. Down here, there are many marriages. If the skills are spread casually, no one will have any secrets.
But there are no absolutes in the world, and a small probability event does not mean it will never happen.
Twenty years ago, an outstanding female disciple of a second-rate sect affiliated with the Piaoping Sword Sect fell in love with the young son of the leader of a second-rate sect affiliated with the Jianzhen Sect. When they became a Taoist couple, the two sects were even in a relationship. Elders were sent to congratulate him, which made both sects proud.
But the good times didn't last long. Just three years later, the female disciple died suddenly and mysteriously. The fatal wound was caused by the swordsmanship of the female disciple's sect. The married female disciple died suddenly. Naturally, the sect of the female disciple couldn't ignore it and sent someone to deal with it. After clarifying the matter, it was discovered that the female disciple was killed by his own martial arts, and the situation suddenly became extremely complicated.
The male sect believed that the female sect sent someone to assassinate him, while the female sect said how could one of his own disciples do the assassination, and the male sect was heavily guarded, not to mention the Taoist monk, the youngest son of the sect leader. If someone really got involved in the assassination, it wouldn’t be ridiculous. Moreover, it was pointed out that the youngest son of the sect master must also know the female side's martial arts, and he might be the murderer.
Both parties were a little excited, so they talked without hesitation. However, the youngest son of the sect leader had been in a daze after losing his Taoist companion, and he seemed to have lost his soul. In addition, people from the female sect came to question him, and he committed suicide in grief. Death by heart pulse.
Both young men died, and it seems that the truth will never be found out.
The female sect insisted that the sect leader's youngest son committed suicide out of fear of crime, while the male sect believed that the female sect had gone too far without any basis, causing the sect leader's youngest son to commit suicide out of hatred. The matter got worse and worse. In the end, both the Piaoping Sword Sect and the Jianzhen Sect came forward, but the truth could no longer be determined, and one person from each side died, so the matter could only be suppressed by force.
For more than ten years, the two sects no longer had any contact with each other.
But just a few months ago, the male sect suddenly sent a large number of golden elixir and foundation-building monks to attack the female sect, and their strength was far superior to that of the female sect. In just half a day, they slaughtered all the female sect’s foundation-building and above monks, and wrote Words in blood: Revenge for your son!
Because the woman's sect only had a group of Qi-refining period disciples left, it was already half a month before the news spread. By the time the Piaoping Sword Sect knew the news and was about to send someone to hold them accountable, the sects affiliated with the Sword Formation Sect had already invaded aggressively, and in a short time Within just ten days, all eight subordinate sects of the Piaoping Sword Sect had been wiped out, and one of them even managed to become a first-class sect.
The strength of the Piaoping Sword Sect has been declining for thousands of years, and its scope of influence has been greatly reduced. After reacting, three more sects on the periphery were destroyed, and the sword of the Sword Formation Sect was pointed directly at the hinterland. Come and play. Let’s play.
The masters of Piaoping Sword Sect were all out. Although overall they were not as good as the Sword Formation Sect, it was not so easy to distinguish between life and death in battles between monks in the Nascent Soul stage, so the decline was slightly stopped.
The Piao Ping Sword Sect, who had taken a breath, also began to have doubts. After various investigations, he accidentally learned that the youngest son of the second-rate sect of the Sword Formation Sect was still alive and had broken through to the Golden Core stage. The matter finally came to light, and everything It was all a conspiracy of the Sword Formation Sect, and it had been laid out for many years just as an excuse to start a war.
Xu Wushuang also learned some news when he and Nie Ying went out this time, saying that the young son of the second-rate sect leader had appeared in this area, so he came secretly to capture him, and then invited the world's first-rate sects to come. The ugly face of the Sword Formation Sect was revealed to their faces, but the two of them were besieged by the five members of the Sword Formation Sect as soon as they arrived. If Zhang Xiaosheng hadn't happened to pass by by chance, they would have been defeated and captured.
At this time, it seems that the source of the news is probably someone with ulterior motives who spread it deliberately. Zhang Xiaosheng also sighed slightly. The Sword Formation Sect calculated every step. It seemed that it was well prepared. It even released the news of the sect leader's youngest son to attract Piao Ping Sword Sect. In order to find evidence, the Pingjian Sect will inevitably send its capable disciples to investigate secretly. In this way, they will naturally fall into the trap that has been set by the Jianzhen Sect.
Presumably it's not just the five people just now, there should be many other combinations like that in the area before, and Zhang Xiaosheng just happened to meet Xu Wushuang and Nie Ying.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaosheng couldn't help but remind:
"Fellow Daoist Xu knew that he had been tricked, why didn't he go back quickly and remind the sect to send someone to help?"
Xu Wushuang shook his head and said:
"The Sword Formation Sect will definitely have thought of this. No matter whether someone can come or not, it is already too late. If Brother Zhang Dao hadn't taken action, our senior brothers and sisters would have been in dire straits. I thought the Sword Formation Sect was not ready to attack because it was too late. Our sect has not yet been completely crushed by strength, but our sect is already prepared. They will pay a huge price if they take action at this time. Therefore, our sect should shrink its strength and wait for changes, instead of sending out disciples in large numbers. If they are defeated one by one, I'm afraid If the Sword Formation Sect no longer has any scruples, then the Piaoping Sword Sect will be completely finished."
Grab, grab, grab. Zhang Xiaosheng nodded. Yes, Xu Wushuang was still very clear-headed and was not angered by the ambush. With such an opponent... I am afraid that it would not be that easy for the Sword Formation Sect to completely annex the Piaoping Sword Sect.
Of course, Xu Wushuang was not only thinking about this. He saw Zhang Xiaosheng's strength in his eyes. Although he didn't know where the Five Elements Sect was from, it must be very powerful to have such a disciple. If he could build a good relationship, even if he couldn't in the future To help, even if you can give some verbal support, the strong momentum will make the Sword Formation Sect Duo Xie fearful.
Zhang Xiaosheng actually didn't want to get involved. Although he severely injured the five golden elixirs of the Sword Formation Sect before, in the end they were all killed by Xu Wushuang and Nie Ying. He didn't want to mess with the cause and effect, so for those five people's storage bags He didn't mention it either, and Xu Wushuang seemed to understand Zhang Xiaosheng's purpose and also didn't take the initiative to hand it over.
It's just that I had some insights from the previous battle, which I had to digest as soon as possible, and there were frequent battles around me. I didn't know how much time it would take to find a stable place, so I simply turned back with Xu Wushuang.
Xixi Miaobifang Xixi. The two of them had their own thoughts and soon came to the cave that Xu Wushuang mentioned before.
It is a quite quiet and secluded place. The cave is located on a peak in a mountain range. There is a waterfall hanging next to it and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant. It is no exaggeration to say that it is a fairyland on earth.
"This is where I and my junior sister come to relax and practice. Brother Tao, please don't dislike it. If you want to practice, please stay in seclusion in the cave. I and my junior sister will also be able to adjust their breath and recover." Xu Wushuang gave a brief introduction. Expressing sincerity, he directly handed over the formation disk that controls the cave's forbidden formation to Zhang Xiaosheng.
Naturally, Zhang Xiaosheng would not pretend to refuse to hand over the formation disk. Although there was a guarantee from the reputation system, it was better to be more careful about this kind of thing. He should be a villain first and a gentleman later, that's all.
He stretched out his hand to take it and said:
"Thank you both very much!"
"Brother Taoist, you are so polite. If such a trivial matter is not worth the life-saving grace of brother Taoist, please don't let me go outside."
Zhang Xiaosheng nodded, stopped talking, and entered the left side of the cave directly.
Xu Wushuang also nodded to Nie Ying, and the two entered the caves in the middle and right side of the cave respectively, and all three of them began to meditate and practice.
Seven days passed in a blink of an eye. Xu Wushuang and Nie Ying had already recovered. They were sparring with each other outside the cave and practicing swordsmanship. When they saw Zhang Xiaosheng coming out with a gloomy look, the two stopped practicing. Xu Wushuang stepped forward and said:
"Brother Dao is already extremely powerful. It is naturally difficult to go further. I hope Brother Dao can rest assured."
Zhang Xiaosheng was really depressed. He cupped his fists and said in return:
"Thank you, fellow Taoist. I have gained something occasionally, but the resources are not readily available, so I have not improved. Everything has been settled now. I have important things to do and rush back to the sect, so I won't bother you anymore."
昘戅Miaobifang m戅. "Although the Piaoping Sword Sect is in turmoil now, some resources are still not a problem. I don't know what I need, so I will go get it and give it to my brother to report my life-saving grace." Xu Wushuang immediately answered, not knowing at all. Asked about resources, he directly offered to solve it for Zhang Xiaosheng.
Zhang Xiaosheng felt warm in his heart. Although he knew that Xu Wushuang's words were somewhat deliberate, it was rare to be so heroic. It was just the Prestige Pill, and the Piaoping Sword Sect really couldn't help him. He cupped his fists and thanked:
"Thank you for your kindness, Daoyou. It's just something special. I can solve it by rushing back to the sect."
After finishing speaking, he paused and then said:
"I am only at the Golden Core realm, and my sect is only second-rate. I'm afraid that your sect's affairs are powerless. I can only hope that your sect can successfully overcome the difficulties, and hope that fellow Taoist friends will forgive me."
