Yunxi Desert City,
As the negotiations between the various factions and Qin Tianjian ended, each faction immediately began to establish trade routes with the northern border. At the same time, they also directly divided up this desert city. After all, this desert city must be part of the Linglun trade route in the future. It is a transit hub where all forces must establish branch points.
However, this matter is simple to say,
It's actually quite complicated, because Desert City originally belonged to Jingnan Road, one of the Eight Roads in Yunxi, and the overlord here is Qianyu Sect. If major factions want to establish branches in Qianyu Sect's territory, they naturally have to negotiate with Qianyu Sect. At the same time, , how to distribute them in this desert city is also a troublesome matter.
Therefore, when the people from Qintian Prison left, the Yunxi factions did not leave immediately. They still stayed to deal with the follow-up time. It took almost half a month to complete the implementation.
In half a month,
The season change has been completed, from late autumn to early winter.
Desert City has a relatively high terrain, so when it gets cold, the temperature drops very quickly. In just a few days, fires have been lit in many places to keep warm.
In the manor where the Beidou Gang is stationed,
Gu Zhan was playing with the charcoal fire with a stick. The fire was burning brightly. There were charcoal fires burning in several places in the room, which was very warm.
However, Mo Jingzhou, who was sitting opposite Gu Zhan, was wrapped in a thick robe and was very close to the charcoal fire.
It had only been more than a month since the battle at Mingyue Gorge, and Mo Jingzhou had completely run out of gas, his aura was very disordered, and his energy and blood had been exhausted to the extreme.
The great master was so restricted by the not-so-cold weather that he didn't dare to go out. He was worried about getting cold and his time was running out.
Gu Zhan sighed slightly and said: "Dragon King, let's go back to Canglan City tomorrow. We can just leave the aftermath of the Desert City to Tanlang."
Mo Jingzhou took a sip of hot tea and said, "I'm afraid it's not good. Although Tanlang has enough status, today's Desert City is different from the past. He has status but no cultivation. Xiao Chen can do it, but he does things He is easily impulsive, his ideas are too simple, and he is prone to weird things.
The opening of the Linglun Trade Road will bring a new outlet for resource competition to the land of Yunxi. Preliminary processing is particularly important. If we lose the opportunity, the subsequent losses will be very large. You and I must... cough cough cough... …”
Before he finished speaking, Mo Jingzhou started coughing crazily, with faint traces of blood dripping from the corners of his mouth.
Gu Zhan waved his hand and said: "What you are worried about is that we left early and other factions will deceive us that the Beidou Gang does not have a grandmaster. I think you don't need to worry about this issue at all.
Although you have some problems now, the remaining power is still there. Even if you are excluded, isn't my name Gu Zhan enough? Even if I am not here, as long as the attitude of the Beidou Gang is strong enough, no one will dare not to care about me, Gu Zhan. In the name of my name, even if I am far away in Canglan Road! "
Mo Jingzhou smiled slightly and said, "With you here, I feel relieved, but in the face of interests, a bad name is not enough."
Gu Zhan said in a deep voice: "After all, it's not a life and death fight, I think it should be enough..."
Just then,
Suddenly there was a burst of hurried footsteps outside the door, and a group of Beidou Gang members hurriedly walked in. The leader was Tian Yu, the genius of the Beidou Gang. As soon as he entered the door, he cupped his hands and said: "Dragon King, Palm Seal, something happened, just now People from the Qianyu Clan forced their way into our Beidou Gang’s territory and clashed with our brothers, and several of our brothers were killed!”
Mo Jingzhou suddenly raised his head and looked at Gu Zhan. He was stunned for a while and said slowly: "Maybe... it's really not enough."
Gu Zhan: "..."
Gu Zhan narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "What's going on?"
Tian Yu cupped his hands and said: "The specific situation is not clear, but it is said that Nangong Weiyang of the Qianyu Sect colluded with the devil to kill Chen Xuannong, the head of the Qianyu Sect. He was defeated on the spot, and then escaped during the siege of the Qianyu Sect. The Qianyu Sect Hunt us down..."
"Wait!" Mo Jingzhou asked with astonishment in his eyes, "What did you just say, Chen Xuannong was killed?"
Gu Zhan was also shocked.
Chen Xuannong is not an unknown person. He is the head of the Qianyu Sect among the five major sects in Yunxi. He is one of the top ten famous masters in Yunxi. He is the ultimate master of the third level of spiritual consciousness. However, he is one of the absolute giants in Yunxi. Such a sudden death.
Tian Yu hurriedly said: "My subordinates are not sure whether the specific news is true or false. It happened too suddenly. However, what is certain at present is that Qian Yumen is hunting for Nangong Weiyang all over the city, and the conflict with our Beidou Gang is also because of The conflict that occurred while chasing Nangong Weiyang.
A group of people from the Qianyu Clan rushed into our Beidou Clan's territory and looked for people without even saying hello. This caused chaos, and some brothers from the Beidou Clan went to inquire. As a result, the people from the Qianyu Clan were very irritable and their words were particularly unpleasant, so they started to fight. In the chaos, a grandmaster from the Qianyu Sect took action to stop him, and six of our brothers died on the spot! "
Gu Zhan's face darkened and he said coldly: "Where is he?"
"Who?" Tian Yu was stunned.
"That grandmaster of the Qianyu Sect." Gu Zhan said.
"Let's go," Tian Yu said: "That man is Yucheng, the disciple of Qianyumen's great elder Lian Nanfeng. He is a famous prodigy of Qianyumen. He became a master three years ago. He also realized after killing someone When he got serious, he took his people and left immediately. He was the master, and there were only two great practitioners present at the time, so we couldn't stop him at all. I also happened to be nearby, so I was the first to receive the news."
Gu Zhan immediately stood up and said: "Tian Yu, call someone immediately to follow me to Qian Yumen."
"Gu Zhan," Mo Jingzhou said hurriedly: "Don't be impulsive. Wait and see the specific news first. This Qianyu Sect is not trivial and has extremely strong strength. If Chen Xuannong is really dead, the Qianyu Sect must be in a sensitive state at this time. Period, if you go at this time, it may easily lead to a bloody battle, so don’t be impulsive.”
Gu Zhan said calmly: "I don't care so much. Not to mention the death of Chen Xuannong, even if the top brass of the Qianyu Sect dies, he has no right to take it out on my people, Gu Zhan!"
Mo Jingzhou shook his head helplessly.
Gu Zhan cupped his hands and immediately turned around and went out.
Looking at Gu Zhan's leaving figure, Mo Jingzhou sighed helplessly and said softly: "Fortunately, I'm about to die!"
An old servant who had been following Mo Jingzhou wondered: "Master, why do you say that?"
Mo Jingzhou chuckled and said: "Gu Zhan is too domineering. With his character, it is difficult for him to accept someone pressing down on him. So, if I can live for a long time and he is already in the spotlight, what do you think of meeting him? When things happened, did he regress or did I regress?"
"This..." The old servant hesitated: "If you, master, are in your prime, can Gu Zhangyin still be able to succeed?"
Mo Jingzhou pondered for a long time, sighed, and said: "Yes, but if you are not in the Beidou Gang, you may become an enemy!"
…
soon,
Gu Zhan led the people outside the manor. At this time, hundreds of people had gathered in the open space in front of the manor.
Gu Zhan got on his horse,
At this moment, a galloping horse came. It was Tanlang, the helmsman of Tianshu Branch. He hurriedly raised his hands and said: "Gu Zhangyin, you have received the news so soon?"
Gu Zhan frowned and said, "What news?"
Greedy Wolf hurriedly said: "Qianyumen Nangong Weiyang's killer defected, but he was caught before he could escape from the city. Now Qianyumen is publicly trying Nangong Weiyang. I just received the news and am preparing to report!"
Gu Zhan said in surprise: "Is Chen Xuannong really dead?"
Greedy Wolf nodded and said: "It's absolutely true. I couldn't believe it when I first received the news. However, according to reports from my subordinates, Chen Xuannong is really dead. It is said that Nangong Weiyang colluded with the devil to give Chen Xuannong the medicine for healing. Poisoned.
In the previous battle at Mingyue Gorge, Chen Xuannong suffered a lot of injuries and had been taking medicine. The medicine was poisoned with a very special poison. Therefore, it was not discovered for more than a month. Until this morning, Nangong Weiyang went there again When he was delivering the medicine, he was noticed by Chen Xuannong, and Nangong Weiyang immediately took advantage of him and killed him! "
Gu Zhan was very surprised. According to his understanding of Nangong Weiyang, the girl was straightforward and straightforward, and she respected her master Chen Xuannong very much, so she would not do such a thing.
In addition, in terms of interests,
Nangong Weiyang is the most likely to inherit the position of head, and Chen Xuannong has also trained her as a successor, so she should not do something that is not worth the gain.
"Is the evidence conclusive?" Gu Zhan asked.
Greedy Wolf said solemnly: "I don't know. The information I received is limited. It is said that many people heard about the conflict between Nangong Weiyang and Chen Xuannong. In addition, they also heard that when Qian Yumen was arresting, Nangong Weiyang broke through the Grandmaster and killed There are many people from Qianyu Sect!"
Gu Zhan raised his eyebrows slightly, gently pulled the reins, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry about this for now, some more people from the Qianyu Sect must die today!"
…
Qianyumen Station, in an open square,
At this time, on a high platform in the middle, Nangong Weiyang was being tied up by several thick iron chains. The pipa bones and other meridians were penetrated by iron nails, sealing her entire body.
The weather is gloomy,
Many disciples of the Qianyu Sect gathered together, and people from major gangs in Yunxi arrived one after another. The scene was very noisy, and many people were talking about it. Some people were in disbelief, some were sighing, and some People's faces were gloomy, and some looked sad and angry.
Nangong Weiyang stood on the high platform. She had many scars on her body and her hair was disheveled. She looked very embarrassed, but her expression was very indifferent. Her eyes were fixed on Lian Nanfeng, the elder of Qianyu Sect.
At this time, under the high platform,
Lian Nanfeng was scolding a grandmaster angrily, while a group of senior officials nearby were trying to persuade him.
The scolded grandmaster was the one who killed people in the Beidou Clan. His name was Yucheng. He was Lian Nanfeng’s top disciple and a genius cultivated by the Qianyu Sect. He became a grandmaster at the age of thirty-something. He was a rare genius, although he was not as good as Not as good as Nangong Weiyang, but still very good, and has always been Lian Nanfeng's favorite disciple.
However, at this time, Lian Nanfeng looked at Yucheng and was not angry. He pointed at his nose and cursed angrily in a low voice: "Did a dog eat your brain? Who is Gu Zhan? Wei Wuya in Sword King City has no face." Anyone who dares to step on you will kill someone just because of a few words from Beidou Gang disciples!"
Yu Cheng felt aggrieved and said, "But those Beidou Clan disciples spoke so unpleasantly!"
"It doesn't sound good," Lian Nanfeng said angrily, "Why does it sound bad? Aren't they telling the truth? How can you compare to Gu Zhan? Do you have a better record or better talent than him? People say you are not as good as Gu Zhan. Are you angry? Then go and fight Gu Zhan!"
Yucheng lowered his head and said nothing, but he was obviously very unconvinced.
An elder next to him hurriedly tried to persuade him: "Elder, don't blame Yucheng. He is young and energetic and can't be easily influenced. In recent times, because of Mo Jingzhou and Gu Zhan, those people in the Beidou Gang have indeed... They are all very arrogant, and they all want to turn their noses to the sky."
When Yucheng saw someone interceding on his behalf, he immediately said: "That's right, Master, you don't know how arrogant the Beidou Gang is. Just a few ordinary disciples, relying on Mo Jingzhou and Gu Zhan to become famous, are totally unreasonable. Take me, Qianyumen, seriously.
Even when I went to arrest people on their territory, I didn't make too much noise. It was just that I was too impatient and forgot to say hello to them. What a big deal, Fei kept pestering me and wouldn't let go, and he used Gu Zhan to pressure me at every turn. I,
He Gu Zhan is amazing, but so what, can I, the Qianyu Clan, still be afraid of him? Those Beidou Gang disciples deserved their death. They really thought that Gu Zhan was the leader of the martial arts alliance, and they wanted to make me submissive just because of their reputation. Why? "
"you……"
Lian Nanfeng raised his hand and wanted to slap Yucheng, but he couldn't slap Yucheng. He was worried about the occasion. People from all major sects were already present. He took a deep breath and suppressed his anger and said : "We, the Qianyu Clan, are not afraid of Gu Zhan, but who doesn't know that Gu Zhan is an arrogant and domineering person? If you kill his people in public, how can he not hold him accountable?"
Yucheng said nonchalantly: "At worst, I'll just apologize to him. What else does he want?"
"To put it simply," Lian Nanfeng said angrily: "If this kind of thing was easier to say when Mo Jingzhou was in power, you dared to call yourself a young man in your thirties, and Gu Zhan was only in his early twenties. Which of the two of you is more arrogant? ?
Gu Zhan can fight just because of a Danyang sect elder's words. Now that you have killed his people, how can you let this matter go so easily? "
"Then what else does he want," Yucheng said: "Does he dare to start a war with our Qianyu Clan over a few insignificant people? No matter how arrogant Gu Zhan is, he still has to worry about the strength of his Beidou Gang, right?"
Lian Nanfeng said in a deep voice: "It is true that Gu Zhan does not dare to start a war with our Qianyu Clan, but don't you know what the situation is now?"
As he spoke, Lian Nanfeng pointed at Nangong Weiyang who was tied up on the high platform and said, "What if Gu Zhan comes to make trouble now? There are many people in our Qianyu Sect who don't want Nangong Weiyang to die. Do you understand? Nangong Weiyang must die today, do you know that, and do you understand that no accident can happen?"
Yucheng lowered his head and stopped talking.
Several senior officials of Qian Yu Sect on the side didn't know what to say. They were all Lian Nanfeng's confidants, so they naturally understood the meaning of Lian Nanfeng's words.
An elder whispered: "Great Elder, let's do this. If Gu Zhan comes to cause trouble today, we will ask Yucheng to apologize. In addition, we will give more compensation to the Beidou Gang. Gu Zhan is arrogant, but he is not crazy. It’s impossible to really fight to the death with our Qianyu Sect over a few ordinary disciples!”
Yucheng said hurriedly: "That's right, Master, he just killed a few ordinary disciples. I just need to pay him some more money. Does he really dare to be unforgiving? Our Qianyu Sect is not a vegetarian, so give him How could he not pick it up at the bottom of the steps?"
Lian Nanfeng glared at Yucheng, took a deep breath, and said: "There is no other way now." As he said, he looked at Yucheng and said: "You make it simple. I really think that a person like Gu Zhan can only afford a little money." That’s it? His face is not as worthless as you think!”
Yucheng whispered: "In the worst case, I'll pay..."
"Can you afford to pay for it?" Lian Nanfeng cursed in a low voice: "Do you know that for this move of yours, you have to spend at least the resources to train five or six great practitioners to survive."
Yucheng's expression changed and he said: "It's not that many, I just killed a few ordinary disciples of the Beidou Gang..."
"Okay," an elder saw that Yucheng was still arousing Lian Nanfeng's anger and hurriedly interrupted: "Yucheng, you have always been a practitioner and don't understand the ways of the world. Just remember to have a good attitude when you apologize later. "
Yucheng curled his lips, nodded unconvinced, and was about to say something else.
The elder immediately grabbed Yucheng and didn't let him speak. Then he looked at Lian Nanfeng and said, "Great Elder, people from the Golden Crow Sword Sect and Yaowang Valley are here. You go to greet them first, and I will take Yucheng down."
After that, the elder grabbed Yu Cheng's hand and left.
When he walked to a quiet corner, Yu Cheng was very unconvinced and said: "Uncle Master, what do you think of my master? That Gu Zhan has some strength, but how can I, the Qian Yu Sect, be afraid of him?"
The elder looked at Yu Cheng and sighed helplessly. He glanced at Nangong Weiyang on the high platform and felt very emotional.
This Yucheng can be regarded as a very good talent.
However, compared with Nangong Weiyang, there is a huge difference in all aspects.
In terms of martial arts talent, there is a huge gap between the two.
Nangong Weiyang was delayed for many years due to environmental restrictions in her childhood, missed the best time to practice, and became lame in one leg, but she was still able to become a first-tier talent.
And Yucheng has enjoyed various high-quality resources since he was a child, but he is far inferior to Nangong Weiyang.
Regardless of martial arts talent and worldliness, this Yucheng is in his thirties and is still regarded as a young disciple by most people, while Nangong Weiyang has established a prestige within the sect that is not weaker than that of the older generation, and also in the world. Although his reputation is not good, he has many friends.
Comparing from all aspects,
Nangong Weiyang is the best among Qianyu Sect.
Thinking of this,
The elder couldn't help but sigh,
If it weren't for the different ways and different political views,
Nangong Weiyang was the undisputed heir to the throne, but now she had to become a mortal enemy.
The elder looked at Yucheng and said softly: "Yucheng, speaking of it, you are not young anymore. You should share the burden for your master in many cases."
Yucheng was a little confused.
The elder did not say any more, but explained: "Your master is not afraid of Gu Zhan. When it comes to fighting alone, among the great masters, there are indeed few who can be Gu Zhan's opponent. Even the top master, Gu Zhan can fight. Power.
But our Qianyu Sect has hundreds of years of inheritance and a profound foundation. How can we be afraid of Gu Zhan? However, the situation is different today. We are afraid that Gu Zhan will come and cause trouble and give Nangong Weiyang a chance to escape. Among our Qianyu Sect, we believe that Nangong Weiyang There are many people. If Nangong Weiyang cannot be completely convicted today, it will be difficult to have the opportunity to kill Nangong Weiyang in the future. "
Yucheng frowned and said: "Uncle Master, I don't understand, why not just kill Nangong Weiyang?"
The elder shook his head and said: "If you can kill her directly, your master will kill her directly. Nangong Weiyang must completely convict her before she can be killed. Otherwise, there will be no way to convince the public, and the hearts of the Qianyu Sect will be in chaos.
You have to know that Nangong Weiyang is different from you. She has built up a lot of prestige in the sect over the years. Now if she is directly killed without a public trial and conviction, many people in the sect will be dissatisfied, especially among the young disciples. There are many people who don't believe that Nangong Weiyang colluded with the Demonic Killer to destroy the ancestors. People say that it is terrible. Nangong Weiyang must be completely beaten into dust so that people in her group have no chance to make any changes. "
Yu Cheng frowned and said: "So, Master is worried that Gu Zhan will cause trouble today and Nangong Weiyang will not be convicted?"
The elder nodded and said: "There are some things that I can't say more about. You have to know that many things must be done as early as possible. Most of the people in the Qianyu Sect are still recovering from the murder of the leader before they can be convicted. Otherwise, they won't be convicted until After everyone calms down, it’s hard to say whether some things are true or false!”
…
"Jingnan Ma family has arrived!"
"Lu Yuan Danyang is here!"
"Golden Crow Sword Sect..."
"..."
With the chanting outside the square, the Qianyumen garrison became more and more lively. People from various sects were already gathered in the Desert City. After receiving the news, they all came very quickly.
There was a lot of discussion in the square.
When Niu Pei, the young master of the Golden Crow Sword Sect, entered the square, he immediately saw Jin Yuanbao, the young master of Yaowang Valley, sitting glumly in the corner.
Niu Pei hurried over, patted Jin Yuanbao on the shoulder, and said, "Fat man, what should I do? It seems that Nangong is in doom today. What should we do?"
Jin Yuanbao glanced at Niu Pei listlessly and said, "What can we do? If other things are okay, we can still find a way for her, but that is the crime of colluding with the devil to kill the master and destroy the ancestor!"
"Do you really believe that Nangong will collude with the devil to kill her master?" Niu Pei said solemnly.
"Believe it? I don't believe it," Jin Yuanbao said: "If it's said to be colluding with the devil, I might believe it a little bit. After all, Nangong is known as the female butcher and kills many people. But if she kills her master, I believe it. Nangong Her life is considered to be given by her master, but we still don’t know her attitude towards her master? She won’t hesitate even if her master asks her to die, how could she kill her master?”
Niu Pei picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and said, "I don't believe it either, but I don't know what I can do..."
Jin Yuanbao sighed, shook his head and said, "Now I can only pray for one person. Only he can bring a glimmer of hope to Nangong."
"Who?" Niu Pei asked confused.
"Jian Yi!" Jin Yuanbao said: "Jian Yi and Nangong Weiyang are in love. I don't believe that Jian Yi will watch Nangong being killed and remain indifferent."
Niu Pei frowned and said: "But, he is from Sword King City after all. This is an internal matter of Qianyu Sect, and it is also a matter of killing masters and ancestors. Even if Jianyi is the sword son of Sword King City, there is no way to stop Qianyu The one who wants to clean up Nangong? It’s impossible for Sword King City to allow Jianyi to come and cause trouble.”
Jin Yuanbao frowned.
at this time,
Suddenly, there was a thick and dense sound of horse hooves in the square, roaring violently, and the ground was shaking.
"Beidou helper Gu Zhang has arrived!"
Watch the most ruthless man cut down the world.8.2...m. :
