Pawn Crossing the River

Zhang Wuhen crushed the "Xuan Jade" she was inhabiting, and absorbed most of her divine power to fight against Sun Hewu who had gathered the power of the "Seven Luminaries Star Array". However, she was in a hurry and could not absorb all the divine power. , so there were still many fragments falling in the sky, dotted with stars, like countless fireflies flying in the sky.

Qi Xuansu looked at this spot of light, unable to conceal his excitement.

To use an inappropriate analogy, for a person, some scraps of steamed buns are really insignificant, not even enough to fit between teeth, but for an ant, it is a giant thing much bigger than itself. .

At this moment, these fragments are the debris, and Qi Xuansu is the ant.

Qi Xuansu ignored the aftermath of the battle and walked towards Xingye Lake.

Yao Pei stopped him: "Do you want your life? I know you want divine power, but let's wait first. This is high-purity divine power that has been purified and will not dissipate out of thin air, and Zhang Wuhen will not be in Wanxiang." If we stay in Dao Palace for too long, we still have a chance."

After Qi Xuansu heard this, his mind became clearer. It is because the green mountains are left that you don’t have to worry about running out of firewood. If your magical power is gone, you can still find it again. If your life is gone, you will have nothing.

As expected, after Sun Hewu was defeated, the "Seven Luminaries Star Formation" was broken, and the remaining six assistants could not stop Zhang Wuhen at all, so they did not hesitate to choose to rescue Sun Hewu instead of stopping Zhang Wuhen.

The two sides had an amazing tacit understanding. Zhang Wuhen did not go out to kill them all, but chose to cross Xingye Lake.

After all, there is no deep hatred between the two parties. They were just like-minded people a few decades ago. Just try your best. No need to risk your life.

The formation of the Wanxiang Dao Palace failed to completely cover Xingye Lake, but only covered a small part. The part of Xingye Lake outside the range of the formation is where the flying boat takes off and lands.

Because the boundary of the formation is roughly located in the center of the lake and is blocked by the lake, it is slightly flawed in connecting with the earth's energy. Therefore, this is also the biggest weakness of the entire formation.

Zhang Wuhen, as an elder of the Dao Sect back then, knew this very well, so he did not choose to break through the formation upwards and go straight to the center of the lake.

The biggest feature of the Wanxiang Dao Palace Formation is the layer-by-layer fortification. First, there is the first-level formation in the lower palace, then the first-level formation in the upper palace. There are independent formations in the upper palace and each part. At this time, Zhang Wuhen behaved like a pseudo-immortal. Just breaking through the weak points of the lower palace formation, there is no reason to fail.

Only a blue light curtain appeared on the lake. The water waves were flowing, and the scene on the other side could be seen through the light curtain.

Zhang Wuhen flew in front of the light curtain and slashed horizontally with his sword. The moonlight condensed on his palm and drew a crescent moon. It tore the light curtain open like a sharp blade. Zhang Wuhen turned into a ray of moonlight and passed through the crack. This leaves the scope of the Wanxiang Dao Palace.

After Zhang Wuhen left, this crack quickly closed and quickly returned to its original state.

Qi Xuansu and Yao Pei also came to Sun Hewu.

At this time, the six assistants had moved away the rocks where Sun Hewu was buried. The old man was a little embarrassed, but not in danger of his life. He was sitting on the ground arranging matters to the other six assistants: "This matter is of great importance. Ning Fuli, you should immediately go to the master's room in Mingtang and inform the master of the palace what happened through the 'message array' there. Xu Fuli, please inform the other two assistants to strengthen the security of the Taoist palace. All the key points, formations and spiritual officials are indispensable. Also, Assistant Yao, go and summon the Jinzi instructors and Yinqing instructors from the lower palace. From today on, all classes in the lower palace will be suspended and the instructors will take care of and comfort the children. We are waiting for notification when classes will resume.”

The three assistants took the order and left.

There were still three assistants standing there without moving. Sun Hewu continued: "Two major events happened one after another, but the Master of Palm Palace is not here. It is when people's hearts are floating. Don't guard this old guy here. Use The name of discussion brings people together, comforts people, and gives them reassurance. In this difficult time, we cannot mess up our own position. "

Zhou Fuli asked: "Mr. Sun, does it really not matter?"

"After all, Zhang Wuhen and I are of the same generation, so we won't be beaten to death by her casually. It's not that bad." Sun Hewu raised his hand, "Go ahead."

"Yes." The three assistants had no choice but to turn around and slowly leave the place.

There are also some spiritual officials standing not far away.

Sun Hewu said to the leading second-grade spiritual officer: "Go and check the formations in the lower palace."

"Yes." The spiritual officials also left this place.

Only Sun Hewu, Qi Xuansu, and Yao Pei were left.

Sun Hewu looked at the two of them and smiled bitterly: "Thanks to you two, you have made a contribution. But what is going on? Isn't the Purple Light Sect intending to steal the power of the Holy Master's statue? How did it become Zhang Wuhen's resurrection from the dead? ?”

This question is not about Qi Xuansu, but about Yao Pei.

This matter originated from the Quanzhen Tao. Although both Qi Xuansu and Yao Pei were members of the Quanzhen Tao, Qi Xuansu could only be regarded as a marginal figure in the upper echelons of the Quanzhen Tao, and had just touched the edge, while Yao Pei was undisputed. Although she is only a fourth-grade wine-sacrifice Taoist priest and her level of cultivation is not high, she can directly meet the Earth Master and Donghua Zhenren, and she knows more secrets than many second-grade Taiyi Taoist priests.

Yao Pei had roughly sorted out what had happened and said: "The information on Quanzhen Taoism is correct. The Purple Light Sect really wants to steal the power of the Holy Master's statue. This is not surprising. Let me put it to death. From the perspective of the heart, we Taoist sect members are working tirelessly to dig into the corners of the Taoist sect. No matter how low-key and restrained the outsider Ziguang Sect is, he will definitely have a foot in it. At most, he will not be as blatant as Lingshan Witch Cult and Zhiming Cult. Ziguang Really Most likely you will not come to this world.”

Sun Hewu sighed: "That's indeed the truth."

Yao Pei continued: "Because hard grabbing has never been the style of the Ziguang Sect, so Ziguang does not need a formation like the Zhiming Sect. They can do this with only a few manpower. The key is to have someone who can fight. Entering the Wanxiang Taoist Palace, Zhang Guyan, who had been serving as the tutor of Tejin Jinzi in the Wanxiang Taoist Palace, became the person in charge of this operation to steal divine power. However, Zhang Guyan alone was not enough, so they passed. The Ziguang Society's usual method was to transfer the dead female instructor to the Wanxiang Taoist Palace through Pei Muyu of Quanzhen Taoism. It was through Pei Muyu of Quanzhen Taoism that we discovered this matter."

Although Wanxiang Taoist Palace does not belong to Quanzhen Taoism, but directly belongs to the Grand Master, because in the territory of Quanzhen Taoism, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, so Wanxiang Taoist Palace has the best relationship with Quanzhen Taoism. Donghua Zhenren was able to send people into the closed Wanxiang Taoist Palace, largely because of this close neighbor relationship. This matter was destined to not get around Sun Hewu, who was in charge of the Wanxiang Taoist Palace, so Yao Pei did not want to hide it from Sun Hewu. She believed This respected old man would not stab Quanzhen Dao in this matter.

Sun Hewu said thoughtfully: "Then it makes sense. Qi Jianyuan only knew about the existence of the female instructor named Yang, but did not know about the existence of Zhang Guyan, so he went directly to the female instructor, but was killed by her. The female teacher was silenced by Zhang Guyan again.”

Yao Pei said: "We found traces of the true energy of the 'Thirty-Six Swords of the Big Dipper' on the flying sword, and therefore found another special Jin Jin Zi to learn from Hu Jiaode, but later we discovered that, in fact, It was Zhang Guyan who put the blame on Hu Jiaode in order to divert our attention. So far, things are still developing on a normal track. In fact, it is just a trick played by the officers and soldiers to catch the thief. In my opinion, it is just Zhang Guyan who is dying. It's just a struggle. Even if he buys some time and steals the divine power, how can he leave with it? Unless he directly invites the Purple Light Master to come to the world, the divine power in the statue of the Holy Master is simply not comparable to that of most of Jinling Mansion. For example, it would be too much of a fuss for True Lord Ziguang to come to this world.”

Qi Xuansu responded: "According to common sense, Zhang Guyan cannot leave the Wanxiang Taoist Palace even after he has stolen the divine power. We are not afraid of him stealing the divine power at all. He should go back to the palace to report to the old master first. Who would have thought that Zhang Guyan would not even think about it?" Zhu Shengli Wanxiang Taoist Palace, so thanks to Su Yi this time, if she hadn’t made a prompt decision and rushed to the Star Observation Deck, maybe we wouldn’t have known about Zhang Wuhen’s resurrection.”

Sun Hewu said with emotion: "Yes, in the future, Zhang Wuhen will cause a huge turmoil outside, and Jin Que will investigate and investigate all the way, but none of us know, let alone the position of assistant, nor the rank of Taoist priests, this Most of my life’s reputation was ruined.”

Yao Pei was not happy at all, but still had a calm face, and continued: "Unfortunately, both the Ziguang Sect and us miscalculated. Zhang Guyan took advantage of the Ziguang Sect. He ostensibly joined the Ziguang Sect to steal divine power for True Lord Ziguang. In fact, he used the power of the Ziguang Sect to resurrect his mother Zhang Wuhen. The Ziguang Sect was hunting geese all day long but was pecked by the geese. After many plans and arrangements, so much manpower and material resources were used to make wedding dresses for others. So. There is nothing wrong with Quanzhen Dao’s information, and both the female instructor and Pei Muyu deserved their death.”

Sun Hewu stood up and said: "I have no doubts. I will personally submit an official letter to Lao Shi later. After discussing with Lao Shi, I will also formally submit it to Jinque. Do you mind if I write this paragraph?"

Yao Pei said: "I only have one request. Please ask Mr. Sun to conceal Pei Muyu's name. I just say generally that Quanzhen Taoism provided relevant information. No matter who asked for specific information, Mr. Sun just said he didn't know, and then declined. Go to my master."

"No problem." Sun Hewu agreed immediately.

Then he looked at Qi Xuansu: "Qi boy, where are you?"

"What about me?" Qi Xuansu was a little surprised.

"Looking at your injuries, you have done your best. If I want a bowl of water to be balanced, I can also agree to one of your requests. It will not be counted in the Taoist sect's meritorious service." Sun Hewu said with a smile.

Qi Xuansu reached out without hesitation and pointed in the direction where the "Xuanyu" fragments fell: "I want those divine powers, I wonder if..."

"Easy to say." Before Qi Xuansu could finish his words, Sun Hewu agreed directly. With a wave of his sleeves, countless light spots rose from the lake water, and then converged towards Sun Hewu. Countless small fragments finally formed a large piece. fragments.
