Lingxi Mountain is a large mountain located on the border of Pingyang Prefecture. This mountain is quite famous throughout Canglan Road. It is not because there is anything special about this mountain, but because there is a first-class sect on this mountain named For the Lingxi Sword Sect.
This Lingxi Sword Sect has been established in Pingyang Mansion for more than a hundred years and has a huge sphere of influence. Although it belongs to Pingyang Mansion, its sphere of influence spans three counties and is the undisputed overlord within a radius of hundreds of miles.
This generation of martial arts forces are dominated by the Lingxi Sword Sect.
As one of the seven first-class forces in Pingyang Mansion, no one has dared to challenge the Lingxi Sword Sect for many years. Even though the Lingxi Sword Sect has been in decline in recent years, after all, it has three great practitioners, and its prestige has not been weakened much.
However, today's Lingxi Sword Sect is furious from top to bottom.
Chen Ranfeng, the elder who held the sword, was killed.
After this news came back to Lingxi Sword Sect, there was an uproar from top to bottom. Countless disciples clamored to take revenge and felt very humiliated.
Because the person who killed Chen Ranfeng turned out to be Qianhu Gu Zhan, the Jin Yiwei who had never taken him seriously.
Even though the reconstruction of Jinyiwei was in full swing during this period, they did not pay too much attention to a first-class sect like Lingxi Sword Sect.
Just a gilded guard, just a clown making a small fuss.
But now, this clown has openly killed the sword-wielding elder. Everyone in the family was shocked and angry, and they came to the outside of the master's courtyard to ask for revenge and to make a correct statement.
At this time, in a hall,
A group of senior officials from the Lingxi Sword Sect gathered together.
The leader was naturally Ding Jianxiao, the head of the Lingxi Sword Sect. He was sitting on the main seat with a dull face, showing no emotion or anger. He listened to the indignation of the senior officials below and hesitated to speak.
After a long time, the hall finally became quiet.
Ding Jianxiao stood up slowly and said: "Everyone, Mr. Yu, I am the head of the sect. Now that the elder holding the sword has been killed, whether it is for the reputation of the sect or to explain to the many disciples in the sect, I should take revenge.
Privately speaking, the sword-wielding elder is my uncle. He watched me grow up, not as a relative but as a relative. Now that he is being murdered, I can't sit idly by and ignore him. "
After that, Ding Jianxiao looked at everyone and said: "However, Gu Zhan is very hidden. No one expected that he turned out to be a great practitioner, and now, he occupies the great righteousness. If we Taking action rashly, regardless of whether we can kill him or not, will cause great trouble and be detrimental to the sect."
As soon as the words fell,
Immediately, an elder said angrily: "Is this the end of it? Are you going to let that guy kill the elders of my sect?"
"Yes, Sect Leader, if we just forget it, let alone us not agreeing, thousands of disciples in the sect will never agree!"
"I'm afraid that our Lingxi Sword Sect will become the laughingstock of the world in the future!"
"..."
Ding Jianxiao said slowly: "Don't be impatient. It's not that we won't take revenge, but we have to think about it in the long term. Gu Zhan is holding chicken feathers as arrows, and the Jin Yiwei has a joint statement in hand. If we rush to attack him, it won't make sense. .
This is different from the sword-wielding elder who went to deal with him. At that time, Gu Zhan didn't have any evidence to prove that the major families in Youyang colluded with the Mangshan bandits. But now, he has slaughtered several major families, and he must have evidence in his hands, and even...even us The Lingxi Sword Sect has the leverage in his hands.
Our first priority now is not revenge, but how to deal with the trouble. If the sword-wielding elder had not gone to Youyang City to attack Gu Zhan, even if Gu Zhan had the evidence, we could evade it and say we didn't know, but the sword-wielding elder had gone , how can we shirk it? Colluding with the Mangshan thieves is intolerable to the imperial court. Don't you know what a crime this is? If it is not handled well, it is a hidden danger of annihilation! "
Romance
In an instant, the hall fell silent.
Collusion with the Mangshan Bandits is not just a matter of the imperial court. If the imperial court did not allow it, the Lingxi Sword Sect would not take it seriously in this land of Yunxi. But the problem is, the Mangshan Bandits are notorious. Zhengdao Jianghu cannot tolerate it. If it is not handled well, Lingxi Sword Sect will beat everyone.
After a while of silence, someone asked: "So, Master, what are you going to do?"
Ding Jianxiao narrowed his eyes and said: "We need to quickly contact several other first-class forces and ask them to form an alliance to withstand the pressure of the Beidou Gang's branch, so that our Lingxi Sword Sect can escape cleanly."
An elder asked in surprise: "You want to shirk all responsibilities to the sword-holding elder? How is this possible?"
"Is there any other way?" Ding Jianxiao said coldly: "If we don't push it to the elder who holds the sword, then our entire Lingxi Sword Sect will collude with the Mangshan bandit. By then, not to mention the Beidou sub-rudder, even Pingyang The other forces in the government have no choice but to use their reputation to deal with our Lingxi Sword Sect. This is the annihilation of the clan. Is it better for the sword-wielding elder to bear the responsibility alone or for all of us to bear the responsibility? You decide for yourself!"
All the senior officials were silent.
Everyone knows that it is much better to put the responsibility on a dead person than to have the whole family suffer.
Ding Jianxiao pondered for a while and said: "There is no other way now. Publicly and privately, I don't want the elder holding the sword to bear this infamy after his death, but we have no other choice."
An elder asked: "But, are the other two sects and four families willing to help us at this time?"
Ding Jianxiao narrowed his eyes and said: "It's not to help us, but to help themselves. Now that Gu Zhan has shown his strength as a great practitioner, the joint statement that everyone didn't pay attention to before has become a real one." Big trouble.
They wouldn't care if a Sixth Young Master held a joint declaration and an ordinary Jin Yiwei, but now that the Sixth Young Master not only held great righteousness, but also had a sharp knife in his hand, they would be worried.
They will definitely help take away the responsibility of our Lingxi Sword Sect. If any of the three sects and the four sects fall at this time, it will infinitely increase the arrogance and strength of Jin Yiwei. Not only that, it will also become a breakthrough. Only then will The biggest problem is that they will not allow this to happen. "
There was silence in the hall for a while,
All the senior officials agreed to Ding Jianxiao's plan.
Someone asked: "Where's Gu Zhan?"
"Don't worry about him," Ding Jianxiao said: "It's just a matter of speed now. It's impossible for him to dare to rush directly to our Lingxi Sword Sect. He will definitely report to the Beidou Gang's sub-rudder. We should contact the other party before the Beidou Gang's sub-rudder takes action. Several companies and the entire Pingyang Jianghu are dispatched, and the Beidou Gang branch will also have some scruples. If we pass the responsibility to the sword-bearing elder, this matter will be over."
at this time,
There was a sudden turmoil in the hall,
A white-haired old man slowly appeared and said calmly: "Jianxiao, you made a miscalculation. If Gu Zhan doesn't die, this matter will never end!"
