Chapter 290 The bad guys are here again!! (Subscribe)
It's over...

When Wang Xidu heard the gentle voice coming from his ear, he felt as if a huge stone had fallen from his heart, and the previous heavy and stuffy chest was relieved instantly.

He looked at the endless mountains and felt for the first time that the undulating mountains covered with wind and snow were so familiar, and joy gradually appeared on his face.

"Hahaha……"

"Okay, okay, okay!"

"What a 'This matter is over'!!"

Behind Wang Xidu, several generals wearing heavy armor and with serious expressions looked at each other in surprise when they suddenly heard his laughter.

"What happened, sir?"

"Could it be that thinking about the demon court's march south to seize the pass is too stressful... and he's gone crazy?"

"...Old Cheng, you are so bold! The Marquis is the backbone of our Taishan Army. If he goes crazy, all of us brothers will die in prison."

"Then why did he..."

Not only several generals of the Taishan Army, but also the monks of various sects guarding Beixiong Pass not far away were also looking at them with awe.

But they are different from the Taishan soldiers. They are not Wang Xidu's direct subordinates and only obey the Taishan Marquis in wartime. In peacetime, they mostly interact with the Night Watch.

"Marquis Taishan, is there any good news?"

"Laughter like this... If there's something good going on, why don't you share it with us so we can have some fun with it?"

Hearing the voice, Wang Xidu stopped laughing immediately, turned around and looked at everyone, unable to hide the joy on his face, raised his eyebrows and said:
"It's indeed a good thing!"

"The crisis in the demon court should be resolved without a doubt!"

"My Lord, are you serious?" An old general wanted to laugh but was afraid that it was false information, so he had to suppress his emotion and asked:
"The Demon Court really won't go south to block the pass?"

Wang Xidu's face was stern, and he looked at him sideways: "Why? Do I look like someone who would joke about something like this?"

"No, no, of course not... Then, it's true?"

"Damn it, Old Cheng, what the Marquis said must be true!"

"Great! If the Demon Court doesn't come to Beixiong Pass, we will be relieved. I was really afraid that the noise last night was their oath-taking meeting!"

"Who wouldn't be afraid? Last night, those beasts were shouting and screaming, and I thought they were rushing towards me in a swarm. I'm so scared that I don't dare to relax now."

Amid the discussion, a Buddhist monk in a cassock came closer and asked:

"My Lord, how did you know about the movements of the Demon Court? Could it be that the movement in the Ten Thousand Mountains last night was caused by our human race?"

In fact, he wanted to ask whether it was done by people from the Buddhist community.

Some time ago, there was a shocking change in Buddhism within the Wei Dynasty, which not only caused the temples and nunneries in various prefectures to be guarded by people from the Night Watch, but also caused all Buddhists to suffer inexplicable criticism.

Although up to this point, no final conclusion has been reached from the imperial court, but the talk of "destroying Buddhism" is rife in the martial arts world.

Especially in the Sifang Building, which is known as "knowing everything about the world", after the news that Buddhism will suffer a disaster was spread by gossipers recently, many monks and nuns began to return to secular life.

This situation made countless enlightened monks feel uneasy.

Just like the monk stationed at Beixiong Pass at this moment, he was looking at Wang Xidu expectantly, hoping to confirm from him that the Buddhists were wreaking havoc on the demon court.

In this way, he would be able to spread the news, and perhaps save many Buddhist temples and monks, and avoid actually "destroying Buddhism."

"Nine-deng monk," Wang Xidu guessed his thoughts, but he said calmly:

"The news was spread by a powerful person who sneaked into the Shiwan Mountains. The details will be announced after I report to His Majesty."

At this point, Wang Xidu paused, looked at the others and said, "Before the order from Kyoto Prefecture arrives, everything in Beixiong Pass should remain the same to prevent the demon court from jumping off the wall in desperation!"

The faces of several officers turned serious, and their bodies and minds tensed up again in an instant, and they responded with orders.

"As ordered by the Marquis, I will now supervise the troops in the western tower to prevent the demons from coming from the western cliff!"

"I'm going east!"

"Go and urge the kerosene and arrows. The logistics troops cannot slack off!"

"..." Wang Xidu nodded slightly, but thought of what Chen Yi had just said, and then gave the order:
"You all stay here first. I need to report to His Majesty immediately. I also need to inform Marquis Wu'an."

Since Yingwu Marquis Chen Yi said he wanted to meet his father and mother, Wang Xi said that he could not put official interests above personal ones.

As long as Beixiong Pass is safe, Chen Taiping and his Wu'an Army naturally don't need to rush here in such a hurry.

After Wang Xidu left, the monk Jiudeng sighed, looking a little melancholy.

He is not a stupid person. On the contrary, because he has been stationed outside Beixiong Pass on behalf of the sect for many years, he has a tacit relationship with the night watchmen and garrison soldiers, and can obtain a lot of information that ordinary people in the world cannot get. Some of the information is far more accurate than that of Sifanglou.

Therefore, he knew very well that ever since the incident at Dakong Temple in Kyoto Prefecture that night, all sects and government offices in the Wei Dynasty had taken actions against Buddhism.

Moreover, the soldiers and night watchmen in Beixiong Pass were on guard against the Buddhists, and even he, a monk of the third rank, could sense it - even if he stayed in the room, there were at least two third rank monks around him.

Among them were many scholars from the Taoist and Confucian schools, and even old friends he had known for many years...

"Master Jiudeng, please be more at ease." A Taoist priest beside him noticed that his expression was different and sighed slightly:
"There is a saying in my Taoism that goes 'If it is a blessing, it will not be a disaster, but if it is a disaster, it cannot be avoided'. There is also the saying of 'cause and effect' in your Buddhism. Some things are beyond your control."

"Amitabha," Monk Jiudeng put his hands together and said:
"This time the Buddhist sect has undergone a sudden change. I don't know much about the inside story, and I am really worried."

"Brother Dao, you should know that Master Kong Jing has passed away, and many other Buddhist monks have suffered disasters in Dakong Temple and have lost all their cultivation..."

The Taoist raised his hand slightly, signaled his surroundings with his eyes, and said in a voice transmission: "Monk, since you know all this, you should think about how to protect yourself and your disciples."

"..."

Monk Jiudeng glanced at him and his expression became even gloomier.

He had already understood the meaning of the Taoist's words - if "destroying Buddhism" was the general trend, then he should protect himself.

After all, he and the Prajna Temple and the imperial court behind him were close to each other. If they could be closer, perhaps they could escape this disaster.

"Thank you for your advice, Brother Dao."

"Hey……"

The Taoist shook his head and said no more. He turned around and waited for further instructions with several other monks from the sect.

"Fortunately, Wuliang Mountain, the most troubled mountain in the Taoist sect, has been closed. Otherwise, I don't know if the Taoist sect is also involved."

……

In Kyoto Prefecture.

Just like the previous time, when the "general" appeared in the Shiwandashan Mountains, several powerful men in the Wei Dynasty were aware of it and saw his attack from afar.

Especially the threats made by the "general" to Chen Yi made Mr. Da, Li Qingzhou and others look solemn.

It was not until Zhao Muzi showed up and sensed that Chen Yi's aura was still there that the powerful people in Kyoto Prefecture breathed a sigh of relief. "Qingzhou, your good disciple is really capable of doing something."

Inside the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion, a thin Taoist with white hair and a youthful face looked far to the north and said with a smile:

"He went to the Shiwan Mountains this time and actually provoked the old monster on Taizhou Mountain to attack twice. This really made me look at him with new eyes."

"Uncle Master, please forgive me for making fun of you." Li Qingzhou did not dare to neglect him. He bowed and said with a wry smile:

"Before Chen Yi went to the Demon Court, I didn't expect that he would provoke such a powerful person."

Not to mention Chen Yi, even though he had traveled to and from Taizhou Mountain many times, he had never seen a powerful person who could be compared with the "general".

Even the several human ancestors who have been stationed in Taizhou Mountain for many years, their cultivation level is not as powerful as this, at least they cannot directly break through the boundary of Tianyuan Continent like the "General".

This alone made Li Qingzhou feel a chill down his spine.

If the unknown Taoist priest behind him had not intervened, he would have even felt desperate and thought about sending his loved ones to hell.

The old Taoist stroked his gray beard and nodded with a smile: "The little guy is very talented and has extraordinary opportunities. I believe that his experience in the Demon Court will help him grow a lot."

"I don't know the identity of that mysterious Taoist priest. When the little guy returns to Kyoto Prefecture, I will ask him."

Li Qingzhou thought for a moment and said, "That Buddhist man must be the 'general' mentioned by Emperor Wei and others, that is, the man from 'Extremely Pure Heaven'."

"The day before yesterday, several ancestors on Mount Taizhou sent back news that they were wary of him..."

The old Taoist stopped smiling and said, "It's not the fault of the ancestors for being cautious. It's just that the conclusions they got after making inquiries from many sources are too shocking. We can't help but be cautious."

"Do you know that when 'Dakong Buddha' Fuchen broke through the supernatural realm the day before yesterday, something unexpected happened in Taizhou Mountain?"

The old Taoist paused, and said with a somewhat unhappy look: "It is said that this 'general' appeared on Mount Taizhou at that time. He was so majestic that the ancestors didn't even have the mind to perceive the divine will."

"If there hadn't been a Taoist priest behind us who took action, who knows what would have happened at the foot of Mount Taizhou."

Li Qingzhou thought about it and said, "Perhaps the Taoist priest is the one who rescued Chen Yi in Shiwan Mountain. I will find him to verify it later."

The old Taoist's expression softened a bit as he said, "During this period, the 'general' has made several moves, which has frightened the pillars of the Three Mountains."

"We should indeed ask clearly. If the little guy has a deep grudge against 'Jijingtian', we need to make preparations early."

"Master uncle is right," Li Qingzhou nodded slightly, knowing the meaning of his words, and changed the subject calmly:

"This time the plan for 'Extremely Pure Heaven' should be over. It would be better for Master Uncle to stay in Kyoto Prefecture for a while so that I can serve you."

The old Taoist looked at him, smiled and shook his head, saying, "You, you are worried that those old guys will be afraid of provoking 'Ji Jing Tian' and give up the little guy, right?"

Li Qingzhou looked a little embarrassed, obviously what he said hit the nail on the head.

In fact, he did have this worry.

According to the information gathered from various sources in the past few days, the "Jijingtian" is the infamous "Jilin Pure Land" on Mount Taizhou.

Those who inherited the supreme magical powers of Buddhism not only secretly plotted against the Tianyuan Continent, but also caused devastation to the lives of people in several realms on Mount Taizhou.

It is said that they are all extremely vicious criminals who will stop at nothing to achieve their goals. Even many powerful people are frightened when they hear the name of "General".

Therefore, after hearing this, several ancestors of the human race naturally became wary of the "General" and the "Pure Land of Bliss".

In addition, the struggle between the human race and the demon court is becoming more and more fierce. Once the demon court seizes the opportunity and unites with the powerful people of the "Pure Land of Bliss", the human race stationed in Taizhou Mountain will have no choice but to retreat to the Tianyuan Continent.

Under such circumstances, even Li Qingzhou was not sure that he could get the ancestors to stand on Chen Yi's side.

Can't say...

"After all, you still need to have sufficient cultivation." The old Taoist saw his thoughts and nodded, then gave up, sighing:
"But I'll put this here. If those old guys give up on Chen Yi, our Taixu Dao Sect will also stand behind him."

"Master-uncle..."

"Why, do you think that you, the old Taoist priest, who is staying in seclusion in the sect, can't even make a decision on such a matter?"

"Disciple doesn't dare." Li Qingzhou shook his head and said, "It's just that 'General' and 'Ji Jing Tian' are so powerful, and disciple is also worried that they will vent their anger on the human race."

"Let me vent my anger on you. The cultivators of Tianyuan Continent have gone through so much suffering. Are we afraid of having to go through it all over again?"

The old Taoist snorted, "A thousand years ago, our human race was enslaved by the demon court. Now that the situation has improved, some people are hesitant. Damn it..."

"..."

Seeing him cursing, Li Qingzhou had no choice but to smile.

However, with the old Taoist's words, he felt relieved - no matter what choices others made, their Taixu Taoist Sect would stand firmly on Chen Yi's side.

Just then, several messy footsteps were heard outside the room.

"Uncle Li, I heard that Beixiongguan had a shocking incident, and Junior Brother Chen Yi is in the Shiwandashan Mountains?"

"Master, I heard that Senior Brother Chen went to the Demon Court?!"

"Uncle Master...Brother Yi, is he okay?"

Hearing the voice, Li Qingzhou smiled bitterly, apologized to the old Taoist priest, and then went out to comfort Lin Xueru, Xiao Xuanzhen, Hua Xianzi and others.

"Don't worry, Chen Yi is fine..."

……

Just as Beixiong Pass and Kyoto Prefecture received the news, Chen Yi did not stay inside the pass for too long. After sensing where Chen Taiping and Xia Wanwan were, he fled far away to Heiling County in northern Zhili.

At this moment, Chen Taiping had already led the Wu'an Army and arrived three hundred miles north of Heiling County. Judging from their marching speed, they would be able to reach the outside of Beixiong Pass in less than a day.

Chen Yi was suspended in mid-air, looking at Chen Taiping who was in front of the marching column. After thinking for a moment, he did not say anything to Chen Taiping.

Although both father and son are Marquis of Wu, the deployment of the army is subject to the order of the Kyoto Prefecture. Generally, the Marquis of Wu can mobilize troops with the order of the King of Zhenbei, the Minister of Military Affairs or the Emperor of Wei.

Even if Chen Yi showed up to explain the situation in the Ten Thousand Mountains of the Demon Court, Chen Taiping still could not slow down the march northward.

He simply didn't show up and went straight to Xia Wanwan.

"I don't know if my mother will be scared when she sees me..." Chen Yi thought that he and Xia Wanwan hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, and he couldn't help feeling a little strange.

It is often like this when one feels homesick.

The next moment, Chen Yi came to Heiling County alone and came to a house in the south of the city.

He looked at the words "Xia Mansion" on the gate and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

After sensing for a moment, Chen Yi walked forward, pulled the door knocker and knocked a few times: "Dang, dang dang..."

Before anyone in the Xia Mansion could respond, he heard a childish voice:

"Bad guy, bad guy, are you back to pick me up?!"
