Chapter 28 Swordsman and Sword(1/3)
In the hall filled with bookshelf, three women, one man and one bird formed a circle, and looked at the crystal-clear soul beads in the dim light of the glass lamp.
The Lord of Peach Blossom was studying it carefully. He suddenly frowned and felt something in his heart. He put away the soul beads and looked outside the underground palace in a blink of an eye.
Zuo Lingquan looked outside in a blink of an eye, but there was no one, but soon a sound came from the ground:
"Several fellow Taoists, this is the territory of Pofeng City. This tomb Pofeng City has already been in his pocket. If you don't say hello, you will come here to take advantage of it. Isn't it appropriate?"
The voice is an old man, full of energy and resounds throughout the underground palace.
The Lord of Peach Blossom's face darkened: "It's the Shuangfeng Ancestor. The soul bead is a great supplement for the jade-level cultivator. The Shuangfeng Old Man had just spied in secret and must have seen this soul bead."
Zuo Lingquan frowned slightly before he came over, and learned about Pofeng City. Although it was incomparable to top immortals like Yingyang Immortal Palace, it was in its heyday, and there were many people in the sect. The ancestor's Taoist practice may not be as good as Yuan Xiaoshan, who had Luojian Mountain, and his overall combat power was stronger than Luojian Mountain, whose talents had withered and went downhill.
The exact cultivation of the ancestors of each family will not be widely publicized. Lingye judged the hardness of the Biaofeng City in recent years. The ancestor of Shuangfeng may have entered the Shuangling Realm at least at the peak of the Youjing Realm.
Zuo Lingquan didn't know how high the Taoist master was, so he thought about it and asked:
"Sister Yingying, can you beat me?"
Xie Qiutao had no hope for Sister Yingying, who had no combat power except for her big breasts, looked around and looked at her:
"Why should I withdraw first?"
"grumble."
The dumpling nodded like pounding garlic.
The Lord of Peach Blossom felt that the little kids looked down on her and said dissatisfiedly:
"You really think that the eight masters of the Nine Sects are made of mud, and you can suppress them any time you come to the sect? As long as I am here, Shangguan Yutang can be more courageous. What are you afraid of? Isn't it just a twin-shot old man? Just cut him down. Even if you can't beat him, it's not easy for me to take you away."
Zuo Lingquan did not mean to doubt the strength of the Taohua Lord. The value of doctors, formation masters, and weapon refiners is not based on combat power. If you force the doctors and pharmacists to fight with people, then why do you need martial arts practice?
Seeing that the Peach Blossom Lord could ensure that they escaped without any worries, Zuo Lingquan, a sword cultivator who was born specifically for the fight, naturally had no worries and turned around and said:
"That's good, go and meet them."
… ——
Directly above the underground palace, there is an unknown swamp.
The sky is covered with clouds and the autumn rain has not stopped. The fog in the swamp has been dispersed.
Qu Qianchen, who had just come out of the ground, had a complicated expression. He stood at the edge of the exit of the underground palace and looked at the three figures standing not far away.
The closest to the exit are two monks in martial arts uniforms, with a waist sign hanging from the waist of Pofeng City hanging around their waists. The head is a Huahai old man with a strong figure and two giant axes hanging behind them. The axe is black ink and black in red, and the handle end is an elephant head and a bear head.
Qu Qianchen has been intimate with Pofeng City for many years and recognizes that these two are Zheng Yifeng's ancestor Zheng Yifeng and the elder of the sword-wielding elder Chen Ming; the other monks of Pofeng City are also coming one after another, but the speed is a little slow and have not arrived yet.
Not far from the Shuangfeng Ancestor, there was a middle-aged man wearing a literary robe. He was elegant in temperament and held a folding fan with a texture like white jade. There were diamond-shaped blades at the tops of the eighteen fan bones. This person was Xiang Yusheng, a friend of Shuangfeng Ancestor, who was the master of the Dugu Valley of the neighboring zong in Fengcheng City.
Shuangfeng Ancestor and Xiang Yusheng are both famous ancestors of Huajunzhou. They came here together, obviously not men and men joining hands to go out together for autumn.
Because Qu Ganchen was unable to open the Immortal King Tomb, he informed the Shuangfeng Ancestor of his location several years ago in exchange for the connections of Pofeng City.
Although the Immortal King Tomb was not Qu Ganchen's, they could not open it, in the eyes of the Shuangfeng Ancestor, this ancient tomb is already a private item of Pofeng City and cannot be watched by others.
Just now, Deacon Zheng took the formation master out and informed the sect. When the ancestor Shuangfeng learned that someone had taken the lead, he pulled his friend to come over for thousands of miles. As soon as he arrived here, he found Qu Ganchen coming out of it.
The Shuangfeng Ancestor asked about the situation. Qu Ganchen said that for the sake of a friendship, he replied that the people below were not easy to mess with, so he told the Shuangfeng Ancestor not to act rashly, wait for others to come out, and treat each other with courtesy to talk about how to divide the accounts.
But the Shuangfeng Ancestor is not a rootless cultivator like Qu Ganchen. He can establish a sect in Huajunzhou. Who has no connections?
If you weren't able to figure out the background of "Sword Demon Zuo Ci", you'd already hit it directly.
Qu Ganchen knew that he was no longer qualified to interfere in the ownership of the Immortal King Tomb and wanted to leave, but the words of the Shuangfeng Ancestor were very direct:
"There are only a few people in Pofeng City who know the location of the Immortal King Tomb, including the Lord, who are all my confidants. You are blocked in the Immortal King Tomb, but you can escape safely. How dare you say that you have nothing to do with them?"
This is obviously a suspicion that the news was leaked by the Qu family, and it is actually true.
But Qu Ganchen was very innocent. He had no idea how the location of the Immortal King Tomb was discovered.
Because the Shuangfeng Ancestor was suspected of being scattered, Qu Ganchen naturally didn't think about leaving today.
It is best to get the big head in Pofeng City. If the real bamboo basket is empty, the big head will be taken away by the "Sword Demon Zuo Ci", and Qu Ganchen and even the Qu family will be finished.
Others will not kill them all, after all, life is not worth much. If the loss in the Immortal King Tomb is made up for the Shuangfeng Ancestor, the Qu family has to make up for the loss of children and daughters. The favors of the Immortal Family are not for nothing.
Qu Ganchen is innocent, but dealing with the immortals is useless to be wronged. Whoever has the biggest fist is the truth.
Qu Ganchen could only count on the fact that there was nothing good in the Immortal King's Tomb, and it was not worth fighting between the two sides; so everyone sat down and discussed how to divide the spoils. At worst, he would not want anything and would not be implicated.
But unfortunately, how could such a large tomb underground have no good things?
Qu Ganchen was blocked for a while and found that the Shuangfeng Ancestor had seen something, his expression changed slightly, and then he spoke directly to the ground.
Since the ancestor Shuangfeng is jealous, it is impossible to make concessions today, and a dispute is inevitable.
Qu Ganchen's only hope now is that "Sword Demon Zuo Ci" and others can be convinced. If you need to make concessions, don't fight Pofeng City head-on.
But is this possible?
Qu Ganchen recalled the style of "Sword Demon Zuo Ci" and felt that "my life is over"...
...
Rush silly
The fine raindrops fell in the swamp, and some of the monks living in the Powder City nearby looked from the distance outside the swamp, and did not dare to approach them easily.
The Shuangfeng Ancestor and Xiang Yusheng stood side by side near the exit of the underground palace, waiting quietly, and their spiritual sense was locked on several figures underground to avoid escaping.
After the Shuangfeng Ancestor spoke, after waiting for a little while, the center of the swamp fell, and a hole appeared, and four figures jumped out.
The ancestor of Shuangfeng looked closely and was led by a young swordsman, wearing a white robe, with a handsome face and a pair of sword eyebrows. It seems that he is the "Sword Demon Zuo Ci" who has been famous recently.
Behind were three women, a round-faced girl, not big in size and carrying an iron pipa on her back. She was probably a maid's entourage.
The other two women were quite special, dressed in an ordinary little woman, holding a white low-grade spiritual bird in her arms, full of human energy, not like a person in the practice of cultivation, but from the perspective of meteorology, the Taoist practice is not low.
Another woman with a gorgeous appearance, although she was a little cynical, her aura was restrained and she could not tell the difference. Daoxing was the highest among the four.
When Qu Ganchen heard the movement, he looked back and saw another woman. He was stunned and said, "Can they dug out a female fairy under the ground?" Judging from the appearance, he looked like an old witch who was thousands of years old...
What happened to this female immortal? She was amazing just now, but now she looks like a little wife holding a little hen...
...
Zuo Lingquan jumped out of the underground palace and saw three people blocking the road outside. His heart was also sank, but his expression did not change much. He pressed his sword hilt and walked towards the Huafa old man in the center:
"You are the ancestor of the twin-front?"
The Shuangfeng Ancestor stood with his hands behind his back, his expression was not as good as his anger, and his eyes were on the Peach Blossom Lord behind him:
"Where is the sacred fellow Taoist? Let's call you."
This move completely did not take Zuo Lingquan, Youhuang, the junior, seriously, but the Shuangfeng Ancestor is indeed qualified.
The Lord of Peach Blossoms looked neither happy nor angry, as if he was looking at the junior:
"I want to ask about my name, I have passed this level of my junior first."
The valley master Xiang Yusheng of Duyou Valley, and even the sword-holding elder Chen Ming, were all immortals who had already entered the jade stairs. Xiang Yusheng's eyesight was not bad. He looked at it for a few seconds and spoke:
"The aura of fellow Taoists is not as sharp as a warrior. I think I don't know how good it is for combat power. It would be too ignorant to say this in front of me."
Qu Ganchen was sandwiched between two groups of people, and was in a dilemma. Seeing that both sides were so angry at the beginning, he quickly interrupted:
"You are all experts on the top of the mountain. You will look down and see each other. It is harmful and useless to argue. Since you are here for the Immortal King's Tomb, why not discuss this matter; if you have no eyes on the sword, fight and kill each other when you meet, and don't talk about the harmony. If it is damaged, the heavenly and earth treasures in the Immortal King's Tomb may not be able to recover..."
The Shuangfeng Ancestor came for the Immortal King Tomb, not for the fight, and responded to this:
"This immortal king tomb, Pofeng City, has been exploring for a long time. According to the rules, it should have belonged to Pofeng City. However, I am not a greedy person. Several fellow Taoists came from afar and I have to do the friendship of the landlords. You hand over the soul beads, and let you take away 20% of the remaining treasures. Today's matter is over."
20%?
Qu Ganchen was anxious when he heard the sound, and felt that the Shuangfeng Ancestor had too much appetite.
The ‘Soul Bead’ should be the treasure that the Shuangfeng Ancestor is jealous of, and it is enough to take it away; the remaining treasures of heaven and earth are reasonable, and people open the tomb and give only 20% of them, wouldn’t they send beggars?
Qu Ganchen was afraid that the sword demon Zuo Ci would turn against each other and was about to speak up to smooth things over, but what shocked him was that the appetite of the "sword demon Zuo Ci" was even more fuckingly scary.
Zuo Lingquan pressed the hilt of the sword, and his eyes showed a little contempt:
"You can't open the Immortal King Tomb in Pofeng City. You can't get any of the things inside. For the sake of your hard work, you have tried to break the formation and let you go in and move a few stone statues. You dare to say "no" and demolish your Pofeng City Ancestor Hall."
"hiss"
Qu Ganchen was confused when he heard this. This was not a bargaining, it was just a matter of provoking trouble. If the Shuangfeng Ancestor could agree obediently, he would not have to carry the two axes behind him and would use them to chop wood.
This statement was not only shocked by Qu Ganchen, but also the Lord of Peach Blossom behind him was stunned and said to himself: It's domineering, and he has the same virtue as Shangguan Yutang, no wonder she likes you so much...
However, the Lord of Peach Blossom also understood that Zuo Lingquan's words were not greedy. The Shuangfeng Patriarch had just spoken, but he was attracted by the Soul Pearl and was bound to win.
Even if she doesn't want anything else, she can't hand over the soul bead. Since she is destined to be unable to reach an agreement, what else can she say?
When the ancestor Shuangfeng naturally showed anger when he heard this, he stepped forward and said in a deep voice:
"Children Huangkou, do you really think that with some reputation, everyone will be afraid of your background and dare not take action? I am afraid of your background, but the weight of the soul bead is enough to dispel this fear. If you don't let go today, even if you are behind the entire Dongzhou and SANG League, this is your bone burial place!"
The Lord of Peach Blossom frowned and interrupted, "Shuangfeng, the people in the world who do not take the East China League seriously will end up being what they will end up with."
When the ancestor Shuangfeng heard this, he naturally understood that this unknown female cultivator on the mountain was from the Eastern Overseas and Southern League.
