Chapter 515: Flying Flowers and Jade Screen

When Chu Tai's clone found his three fellow disciples Shang Zhu, Yin Ran and Shou Ling, he did not meet them directly.

Instead, he first went to Feihua Manor where the monks of the Wutai lineage lived.

At this time, incense was burning and decorations were set up in the village. There was smoke rising up and purple mist filled the ground. From a distance it looked like gods and immortals had appeared in the world, preaching and imparting scriptures.

Thousands of people who were unaware of the situation surrounded Zhuangzi and bowed devoutly.

But as soon as Chu Tai entered, he saw many obscene and filthy scenes.

Some of the persecuted boys and girls would rather die than surrender, and now their life is worse than death, while others are sinking into it and colluding with the Wutai monks.

Chu Tai cast a spell to confuse everyone and rescued several boys and girls who had not yet surrendered. He left the clay body of the puppet as a replacement and sent it to Yuping Village where Shang Zhu and the other two were.

Of course, during this period, Chu Tai did not use his own identity, but picked up the Yangmeishanren who had not been used for a long time.

This was a name Chu Tai used when he was searching for the Jinhua Sect. In the eyes of outsiders, his cultivation level was not very high. It was just right to use it again at this moment when he used the power of [Yun Zhongjun] to conceal the secrets of heaven.

Almost at the moment of entering Yuping Village, Chu Tai felt a force surrounding his mind and calculating his information.

He pretended to be unaware and carefully led the boy and girl into the center of the village.

Shang Zhu, Yin Ran and Shou Ling also sensed the moment Chu Tai entered the village. They were together with the owner of this place, Hong Fuke Lu Qing, and several Lu family monks who were accompanying them.

When they saw the boys and girls, a middle-aged woman among the accompanying monks rushed forward, hugged a skinny boy with a broken arm, and cried, "Nian'er, Nian'er, didn't you go out to seek the truth? How did you become like this?"

As he said this, he kowtowed to Lu Qing and said, "Brother, I beg you to save Nian'er. He is the only child left in our family."

Lu Qing looked at his nephews and said with a sullen face, "What a Wutai lineage, they say one thing in public and another in private. It's really disgusting."

Chu Tai heard this and asked the reason. He actually knew the ending of the matter a long time ago, but with his current identity, Yangmei Shanren should not know it, so he spoke.

Lu Qing sighed and said, "This matter is not a secret in this area, so I won't hide it from you, my friend."

"About fifteen years ago, Taoist Cui Ye from the Wutai Sect came here to establish Feihua Manor. At that time, he also helped the people around him to make clouds and rain, and provided relief to the local area. Local cultivators like us did not pay much attention to him. We never thought that this person had evil intentions. After gaining a foothold, he went against the grain, not only plundering the people's wealth, raping and looting, but also using the bones and souls of living beings to refine magical instruments."

"I couldn't stand it any longer, so I invited fellow Taoists to gather here and restore order. I never expected that several monks from the Wutai Sect would come to help. If it weren't for the help of fellow Taoists Shang Zhu, Yin Ran and Shou Ling, our Yuping Village would have been reduced to ruins."

"The Wutai sect demon saw that he could not defeat the three Taoist friends, so he made an agreement with us. The winner would be determined after three fights, and the loser would leave this place. During this period, Feihua Manor would also continue to pray for the souls who died in their hands. But I didn't expect that they would say nice things and do everything to save face, but secretly do such a cruel thing."

"Speaking of which, tomorrow is the first match we have agreed to fight. That's why we were so nervous when we saw you coming earlier."

Chu Tai was just listening. He had figured it out before he came, so he naturally knew that what Lu Qing said was 70% true and 30% false.

He did not expose the truth, but pretended to be curious and asked, "Why did you choose to let him go instead of executing him on the spot?" Hearing this, Lu Qing was stunned for a moment. Shang Zhu and the other two did not know how to speak, but the woman whose child was badly hurt saw her brother's hesitation and sneered, "Why else? The Taoist Cui Ye from Feihua Manor is the brother of the Red Flower Fairy of Wutai Sect, and the Red Flower Fairy is the disciple of the Goddess of Pity and Desire, Yu Guifang. Your brother is afraid of provoking someone who should not be provoked, so he dare not pursue it."

Hearing this, Lu Qing was furious and asked, "What nonsense are you talking about, woman?"

"Am I wrong? Taoist Cui Ye is narrow-minded and vindictive. Do you think that if you let him go, he will remember your kindness? If he was really willing to reconcile with us, why would my Nian'er..."

At this point, the woman burst into tears again, making Lu Qing very embarrassed.

Seeing this, Chu Tai consoled him, "Don't be sad, fellow Taoist. Your son's broken arm can be repaired if you can find natural treasures. If that doesn't work, I have a technique that was taught to me by a senior I met on the way here. It has the ability to reshape the Taoist body, but the practice process is a bit painful, and it requires the power of the Taoist principles of foreign lands."

As soon as these words were spoken, the woman knelt hurriedly, begging Chu Tai to teach her the method. As soon as Chu Tai mentioned the method of cultivation, Shang Zhu and the other two immediately understood that it was the method evolved from the Lingtai method. They guessed that the visitor was related to the sect, and their original fearful thoughts dissipated a lot, and the eyes they looked at Chu Tai were also much softer.

Chu Tai took the opportunity to introduce himself as a native of Yangmei Mountain, and said that he came here this time under the guidance of the cultivator who taught him the Lingtai method to seek a way to break through.

Now that he sees the Wutai sect doing evil, he is willing to stay and help.

Seeing this, Lu Qing hesitated a little. He realized that this person was most likely a helper related to Taiyi Xianmen.

And Lu Qing himself actually had the idea of ​​setting up his own sect. He had witnessed his ancestors suffering a fate worse than death because of the fate and methods of Taiyi Immortal Sect, so he wanted to separate from Taiyi Immortal Sect and become a distant branch, preferably turning the inheritance into his own family's method.

Therefore, Lu Qing was both happy and wary of the arrival of Shang Zhu and the other two.

In other words, this cultivator from a small place followed a simple concept of cultivation and believed that since the Jinhua Sect did not have a fourth-grade cultivator, it was impossible for it to be a match for the Wutai lineage.

This is also the reason why he repeatedly gave in to Feihua Manor.

But now, Feihua Manor has incurred the wrath of the Lu family. Even Lu Qing's confidants are unwilling to let Taoist Cuiye have a good end after seeing their relative being toyed with.

Therefore, Lu Qing's hesitation could not stop Chu Tai from staying in Yuping Village.

After a night of communication, Chu Tai gained everyone's basic trust and followed them to participate in the first battle.

Not long after everyone arrived, a cloud of smoke suddenly rose from the crowd on Wutai, and a Taoist in disheveled clothes stepped on it.

The Taoist's hair was askew and his clothes were covered with stains. He looked very miserable. He stood in mid-air, burped, and hooked his finger at Chu Tai and the others, saying, "The lousy Taoist from Wutai is here. Why did you come here to die?"

Chu Tai and the others looked at each other, and Yin Ran stepped forward and said, "I am Yin Ran Taoist of Jinhua Sect, and I would like to ask you for two advices..."

Before Yin Ran could finish his words, the bad Taoist raised his hand and attacked first.
