Cyber Daming

Swoosh.

Several flying swords formed a sword formation and swept through the dense forest under the moon, with the sword tip tightly biting a panicked figure fleeing in panic.

The tail flame rushed past, and the strong wind blew the snow balls accumulated on the branches off, hitting the three Daoxu who were chasing side by side.

One of them had tough features and a firm look in his eyes. He was Chen Qisheng who was ordered to go down the mountain.

His mission this time was to go to the Nanzhili area with the other two brothers from the Demon-Subduing Hall to investigate the murder of the Daoxu of Qiuyu Temple.

Qiuyu Temple has been preaching in Suzhou Prefecture for a long time. Although it is also a member of the "New School Daoxu", it is not attached to large Taoist sects such as Longhu and Gezao. It is a small force with independent roots.

Originally, this kind of force, which is a sect, is not close to Wudang Mountain on weekdays, and there is not much contact between the two. Logically speaking, even if the Daoxu of the sect was killed, Wudang Mountain does not need to specially send disciples from the Demon-Subduing Hall to stand up for him.

But since the New Year, under the deliberate advocacy of a group of Dao-order forces headed by Longhu Mountain, Wudang has become the leader of Dao-order, and Tianzhu Peak, where the ancestral hall is located, has become the true ancestral temple revered by all Dao-orders in the empire.

As the saying goes, it is good to lean on a big tree for shade.

Now with Wudang, a towering tree that provides free shade, many small Taoist sects like Qiuyu Temple have come to rely on Wudang Mountain diligently, begging Wudang Mountain to shelter them from the wind and rain.

All matters, no matter how big or small, as long as they are conflicts with other sequence forces, they all ask Wudang Mountain for help.

Coincidentally, at the beginning of the new year, the situation in the empire suddenly became turbulent, and conflicts and frictions between states, prefectures and counties continued.

In almost every conflict, the figure of Wuxu sect can be seen, and the victims are varied, except for Moxu.

Therefore, the monks of the Demon-Subduing Hall have been busy during this period, running around and putting out fires everywhere.

And what happened to Qiuyu Temple this time is even more shocking.

Except for the master of the temple, almost all the Daoxu in the sect were slaughtered.

The scene was extremely bloody. The bodies of all the victims were dismantled, the Dao base was randomly thrown on the ground, and the modified mechanical bone Dao body disappeared.

The next day, the Dao body parts of these people suddenly appeared in the local black market and were sold at extremely low prices.

Obviously, this was not only a revenge killing to destroy the temple and the Dao, but also a humiliation specifically targeting the Daoxu.

When the news reached Wudang Mountain, the elders of the Demon Subduing Hall were furious. They immediately ordered a Daoxu Six True Martial Walking to lead, and Chen Qisheng and another senior brother who was also commended at the New Year's Dharma Assembly to assist. The three of them went to Suzhou Prefecture to investigate and must kill the mastermind behind the scenes.

The investigation process was extremely smooth. Almost all the evidence pointed to the Wuxu sect, the Black Flag Society, which had a long-standing feud with Qiuyu Temple.

However, there were some accidents in the siege that was bound to win, allowing the Black Flag Society Wuxu in front to escape.

That's why there is this snowy night chase.

"The Black Flag Society's territory is ahead. If we can't catch up, we must retreat immediately and never fight to the end. Do you understand?"

The Taoist named He in the middle whispered, and another Taoist from the Demon-Subduing Hall responded.

Chen Qisheng, whose sleeves of his Taoist robe were stained with blood, frowned and chased faster.

This dense forest is sandwiched in a valley. From the perspective of the Taoist machine tracking from a high altitude, the overall terrain is wide at the back and narrow at the front, like a gourd.

Wu County, the base of the Black Chess Sect, stands at the mouth of the gourd.

The sound of the flying sword in front of us shuttling through the air is particularly harsh in the silent forest.

The hot tail flame evaporates and sprays blood, which spreads a disgusting stench.

But the Black Flag Wuxu's endurance was surprisingly strong. Even though there was not a single inch of good skin on his body and he was seriously injured and dying, he still had no tendency to fall to the ground, and even ran faster and faster.

Senior Brother He stared at the fleeing figure in the distance. Although he was unwilling, he also knew that he could not chase him anymore.

They were about to rush out of the forest, and the opponent's help must be on the way, and it would probably not be long before they showed up.

By then, the enemy was outnumbered, and the offense and defense would be reversed. It would be the turn of his three brothers to be chased and killed.

It seemed that this mission could not be completed.

However, it was enough to find out that the real culprit behind the scenes was the Black Flag Society, and the rest of the matter would be left to the sect to deal with.

Senior Brother He sighed in his heart, no longer hesitated, and decisively ordered to stop the action.

"Stop!"

Upon hearing this, another Demon Subduing Hall Daoxu stepped heavily, and the broken snow in front of him flew, and the running figure came to an abrupt stop.

But the next moment, a figure as fast as lightning flashed before their eyes, and instantly distanced itself from them.

"Junior Brother Chen, what are you doing?!"

Chen Qisheng turned a deaf ear to the shouting voice behind him.

He flicked his thumb, and a pill fell into his mouth, turning into a warm current and rushing into his body.

His blood boiled and his spirit burned, and a huge amount of true energy surged out of his Taoist foundation, and Chen Qisheng's figure rushed forward at an even more astonishing speed.

At this moment, Wu Xu of the Black Flag Society, who had already fled to the edge of the forest, heard the sword chanting above his head gradually fade away, and his blood-stained face suddenly showed ecstasy of surviving the disaster.

This place is less than ten miles away from Wu County where his sect is located. The few stinky bull noses behind him must be afraid and dare not continue to chase him.

Good!

Since you are afraid, then it's my turn to chase you next!

The face of this Wu Xu suddenly became ferocious, and his heart was filled with hatred.

A Qiu Yu Temple that follows the new line, with a temple leader from the seventh chapter leading several young Taoist priests who have no hair at all, dares to set up a temple in Suzhou to preach without worshiping our Black Flag Association's pier, which is simply asking for death.

A force the size of sesame seeds and mung beans will be destroyed once it is destroyed. Even Longhu Mountain is not interested in taking care of it. Is it your Wudang Mountain Dog’s turn to take the mouse?

In particular, Daoxu named Chen not only chopped up several of his fellow disciples, but also almost took out all his internal organs with his bare hands.

If this revenge is not avenged, where will the face of my Black Flag Society be?

The joy of being alive and the pleasure of revenge were intertwined in his chest, which invigorated the originally tired spirit, and the piercing pain all over his body was weakened to an insignificant level.

The dead trees blocking his vision quickly swept behind him, and at the end of his wider vision, there were black shadows running towards him.

"It's one of our own!"

Seeing the familiar black flag uniform, the man's heart suddenly agitated, and he let out an uncontrollable cry of excitement.

"Brothers, I'm here!"

As soon as the roar came out, the man was startled to hear a life-threatening scream coming from behind him.

"How is that possible?! How dare they?"

Black Flag Huiwu Xu turned around in astonishment, and a cold sword light instantly occupied his eyes.

Phew!

One hand reached into the fountain of blood and firmly grasped the flying head.

The headless corpse was still running forward according to the inertia. The shaking body was like a brush that was swaying freely, drawing a dazzling scarlet blood line on the snow that was barely wrist-length.

Chen Qisheng wiped away the blood on his eyelids with the back of his sword-holding hand. The boiling power of the medicine caused a faint golden light to flash in the depths of his eyes, and he looked calmly at the line of enemies running in the distance.

Shaking his wrist and vibrating his sword, his sharp edge is revealed.

“There are a lot of people”

A melancholy sigh suddenly sounded in my ears.

Chen Qisheng looked sideways and saw that the person speaking was the senior fellow from the Demon Subduing Hall whose name he had not even remembered.

At this time, he had a sad face and stood shoulder to shoulder with Chen Qisheng.

"Chen Qisheng, you are disobeying me this time. I will report the truth to the elders later and deal with you severely. Brat, you don't give me any face. Do you think of me as a senior brother in your eyes?"

Daoxu, named He, stood on the other side of Chen Qisheng, raising his hand to grab a flying sword that fell from the sky.

"you."

Chen Qisheng looked at the other party with doubts in his eyes.

"Look, how can we leave you alone? Our Wudang has never had such a rule."

Senior Brother He smiled: "You are a little reckless in doing things, but the bloody spirit of our true martial arts is worth appreciating."

"Senior brother, I don't want to interrupt you, but can we go back and talk about these things again? The top priority is how to get out!"

Another Michio licked his lips that were dry due to nervousness.

The figure reflected in his eyes was enlarging at an extremely fast speed, and waves of substantial and ferocious aura rushed towards his face, stinging his face and causing pain.

"Don't worry, senior brother, I will definitely be able to take you back to the mountain safely."

Senior Brother He smiled slightly and calmly raised his sword, pointing the edge directly at the night sky.

boom!

A deafening thunder suddenly exploded.

The lightning that fell from the sky lifted up a huge wall of snow several feet high, and the hard ground was plowed into a deep ravine that stretched in front of the valley.

The few Black Flag Huiwu Xu who rushed forward were knocked to the ground by the remnant power of the thunder, their faces covered with snow and dust, and they looked up in horror.

The clouds rolled up like a whirlpool, and a star shone brightly in the sky.

Boom.

The severed head drew an arc and landed on the other end of the ravine.

Chen Qisheng looked at these livid-faced Wu Xu of the Black Flag Society sect with an expression of indifference and awe-inspiring aura.

"In the matter of Qiu Yuguan in Suzhou Prefecture, today we just killed the culprit, and it's not over yet. If your Black Flag Association doesn't give a decent explanation to Daoxu next time, then this thunder will fall on your court next time. Above! Our Wudang Mountain Demon Subduing Hall will do what we say!”

Senior Brother He's eyes were stern, and his aura was as strong as Ting Yue's.

But in a place where no one noticed, spiritual thoughts quietly overflowed from his mind and transformed into human voices, resounding in the minds of Chen Qisheng and Chen Qisheng.

"Remember to hold your head high and keep your chest high, and walk slowly, and don't show any fear. The stars in the sky that I can activate only have so much power, and we will be in trouble if the other side sees through it."

After saying the harsh words, the three brothers and sisters slowly turned around and assumed a confident posture.

The face that turned away was full of nervousness, and fierce eyes fell on his back, causing goosebumps all over his body.

"run!"

Senior Brother He, who was walking faster and faster, could no longer hold his breath and shouted lowly.

But just as he stepped away, he saw Chen Qisheng's figure speeding past him.

Even the other Daoxu ran very fast.

In an instant, Senior Brother He found that he had become the last person in the palace, and he couldn't help but curse.

"You two little bastards, how bloody were you just now?"

"Elder, what you ordered me to do has been completed."

"Well, Yanlong, thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard work and I can do things for you, elder. That's my blessing as a disciple."

"There are hundreds of Taoist orders in this Demon-Conquering Palace. You have the smartest mind and the most flexible mind. You are a talent. But it's a pity that your talent in Zhenwu is really poor. Otherwise, you will be able to master this Tianzhu sooner or later. A palace on the top of a mountain.”

"Elder, you are joking. I have a few kilograms, and I feel like a mirror in my heart. I am just a little clever and cannot be put on the stage. I am satisfied if I can share a little worry with you. But as you said Talent, my junior brother Chen Qisheng is a rare Tao seed!"

"I've heard of his name. He's among the year-end commendations this year, right? Chen Qisheng should have been promoted to the seventh rank by now?"

"Reporting to the elders, he had successfully broken through the promotion order in the middle of last year. And with his qualifications and character, it shouldn't take long for him to be promoted to a Sixth Form True Martial Arts Walker."

"He is indeed a talent. He is currently performing a mission at the foot of the mountain?"

"In Suzhou Mansion, we are investigating the Qiu Yu Temple. The report sent back to the palace yesterday by Senior Brother He was full of praise for him, praising him for his true martial demeanor, and asking the sect to train him more."

"Yanlong, when you tell me this, do you want to ask for the ritual for him to be promoted to the sixth order, or do you want a tonic golden elixir that can enhance your body's foundation?"

"The discipline disciples in the sect know very well that these rituals and elixirs can only be obtained by accumulating enough merit. Yanlong does not dare to ask for it, let alone embarrass you, elder."

"You are a sensible person. Tell me, what do you want this elder to reward you with?"

"I would like to ask you, elder, to help me with a small matter."

"explain."

"Can you please, elder, transfer Chen Qisheng out of the Demon-Conquering Palace? He can be placed in any palace on the mountain, even if he is assigned to guard the mountain gate."

"Chen Qisheng has a grudge against you?"

"There is no grievance. On the contrary, although Qisheng and I are half-brothers, we have always been brothers."

"In that case, why did you do this? Do you know the consequences of doing this? In the order of the Demon Subduing Palace, there are only three ways to go: meritorious service and promotion, injury and retirement, and death. And the precedent for being expelled.”

"Please, elder, have mercy!"

"Zhao Yanlong, is Chen Qisheng afraid of death, or are you afraid of death?"

"I don't dare to deceive the elders. It's because the disciples are afraid of death. Chen Qisheng doesn't know anything about this. The situation at the foot of the mountain is dangerous now. As the swordsman of Wudang, the Conquering Demon Hall is always in danger. Chen Qisheng has a reckless temper. I really Afraid that he would die at the foot of the mountain."

"Zhao Yanlong, based on what you said, this elder can kill you on the spot right now. Do you believe it?"

"The disciple knows, but the disciple also believes that you, elder, will not kill the disciple, nor will you expel the disciple from Wudang."

"Oh, Zhao Yanlong, where do you get such confidence?"

"Although my disciple is not good at 'real martial arts', I have a wide range of friends in the mountain sect. There are brothers and sisters in each palace who I can talk to. Everyone knows everything and talks about everything. Otherwise, the disciple would not be able to complete the things you ordered so smoothly." ”

"You are threatening this elder, Zhao Yanlong, how brave you are!"

"Elder, you have misunderstood. What I mean is that if you have to handle any private matters in the future, I can do it for you, and it will be done properly without any mistakes."

"Zhao Yanlong, I really underestimate you. This elder can help you with this matter, but if I hear any words about today's events in the future, you should know what the consequences will be."

"Elder, don't worry, disciple understands."

"Zhao Yanlong, you are worthy of being a disciple of Wudang. Get lost. From now on, you and Chen Qisheng will be the gatekeepers at the foot of the mountain for the rest of their lives. Even if you die and die, you are not allowed to enter Tianzhu Peak again!"

"Thank you elder for the gift."

"Let's take a look. This is the edict just issued by the palace. I really didn't expect that, Junior Brother Chen, you have such a powerful background in the mountain gate. I, He Zhu, really couldn't see Mount Tai before. What have you ever offended before? This place, please show me your kindness, junior brother.”

He Zhu threw a decree written on a bright yellow scroll at Chen Qisheng, his words full of contempt and ridicule.

"Do you think I'm blind? Or are your acting skills so good that they are perfect? ​​Otherwise, why didn't I see that you were acting at all when we faced those Black Flag Club martial artists in Wu County?"

"It's a shame that Junior Brother Song and I tried our best to save you. Afterwards, I even sued the master to ask for credit for you. Chen Qisheng, when you were playing these tricks, did you ever think that it might kill Junior Brother Song and me? ?”

Looking at the figure squatting under the eaves, He Zhu's angry eyes showed a hint of doubt.

"Chen Qisheng, since you are so afraid of death, why did you enter Wudang in the first place, why did you choose to pursue real martial arts, and why did you enter the Demon-Conquering Hall?!"

The questioning was louder than the other, and by the end it was almost a roar.

"Senior brother, please stop saying a few words."

Daoxu, named Song, sighed and tugged on He Zhu's sleeve.

When he was outside Wu County, he didn't think that Chen Qisheng's bravery in killing the enemy alone was a lie.

But he also didn't understand why there was suddenly a decree to transfer Chen Qisheng away from the Demon-Conquering Hall.

Nowadays, the situation is dangerous, and the battles between the various orders are intensifying.

This is a reality that everyone can see.

As a true martial swordsman, the Conquering Demon Palace shoulders the responsibility of slaying demons and protecting the Tao. It is natural that he should be on the front line and sacrifice his life for the sect.

If you don't want to take risks, can you use such dirty tricks to escape?

No one wants to die, but as Wudang disciples, there are some things they should do.

"Forget it. Chen Qisheng, although you still have Wudang Taoist qualifications, from now on, I, He Zhu, will no longer regard you as a sibling in the same sect. You can become a gatekeeper with your senior brother Zhao Yanlong. Then you are safe enough. It can keep you safe throughout your life.”

He Zhu resolutely turned around and left.

"We have no background, but the Zhenwu Daoism is more important to us than life. If you are afraid of death, let us die!"

Chen Qisheng, who did not say a word from beginning to end, stroked the edict in his arms with his fingertips, and his eyes were extremely complicated.
