I began to understand the myriad things by chopping wood

Chapter 225: The Tianjiao team up to show their power

Mr. Qian looked at the sword that Xie Yuan was pointing at him, his expression changing constantly.

He tilted his head slightly, looked at the fair-skinned monk next to him, and said in a deep voice:

"Prajna Temple, Huijue?"

"Amitabha. Donor Qian, you can see clearly that it is me, the humble monk."

Huijue clasped his hands together with a faint smile on his face.

When Mr. Qian saw that he admitted it, his face became a little gloomy.

He looked at the Taoist priest on the right again and asked slowly:

"May I ask who this young Taoist priest is? He can't be a disciple of Xuanzhen Sect, right? Hehe——"

"Xuanzhen Sect, Zhang Junyi."

Zhang Junyi simply introduced himself and looked at Mr. Qian with a frown.

He had heard about this man's evil deeds from Xie Yuan. He colluded with the government and harmed the people, which was what Zhang Junyi hated the most.

Mr. Qian's smile froze and got stuck in his throat.

He looked somewhat surprised and doubtful. Was he really a disciple of Xuanzhen Sect?
This was Zhang Junyi's first time going down the mountain. Although Mr. Qian had never heard of this name, the three words "Xuan Zhen Sect" alone were enough to make him very afraid.

"How could Qian be so virtuous that he could have the disciples of Xuanzhen Sect and Prajna Temple join forces with him?"

Mr. Qian forced a smile and said meaningfully.

The dispute between Buddhism and Taoism has existed since ancient times. Xuanzhen Sect and Prajna Temple are both "two sects" with equal fame in the world, and the stories between them are even longer.

When the Dali Dynasty was founded, Taizu took advantage of the conflict between the two sects and successfully weakened the power of the two sects by sitting on the mountain and watching the fight. He successfully controlled the martial arts of the world and set up the Six-Gate Spring Rain Tower. From then on, the foundation for Dali's stability for a thousand years was laid, unlike the previous dynasty which was always troubled by the powerful martial artists among the people.

Although both sects are large and well-known, they are not friendly with each other. When disciples meet, they will definitely compete with each other to see who is superior, if not to mention jealousy and fighting.

After hearing Mr. Qian's hidden plot to sow discord, Huijue just smiled:
"Donor Qian, you are not enough, but what you have done is enough."

Zhang Junyi nodded in agreement:

"What the monk said makes sense."

Seeing that the two were not moved at all, Mr. Qian's eyelids twitched, and he turned his head to look at Xie Yuan, but said to the side in a strange voice:

"Have you two misunderstood me? Qian has always been a decent person and has never done anything evil. But the man in front of me has killed a loyal and good person, his crime is extremely serious, the evidence is solid, and he is also a wanted criminal by the government. How can I listen to the slander of this evil man?"

"Slander? That's slander. I heard you admit it yourself."

Huijue shook his head and sighed.

Zhang Junyi snorted coldly:
"A crooked official still claims to be loyal and good. Brother Xie is willing to get rid of harm for the people at the cost of his reputation. He is truly a hero!"

He acted as if killing the official would make him a good brother, which made Mr. Qian's eyelids jump.

Xie Yuan looked at the noble family in front of him. To be fair, this person not only had an extraordinary temperament, but was also not very old. He was probably less than 40 years old, in the prime of life. He was so young, but he had such a high level of cultivation. If he could become a master in the future, he would have great hope.

But such a great man can be so cruel in his actions. The stronger he is, the greater the harm he can cause.

Xie Yuan said in deep thought:
"What's the point of misleading people with lies? We heard everything you and Yao Qing said with our own ears. Let me ask you, why did you kill Wang Zhiyi, the steward of the Sword Sect? What secrets did he know about you?"

"Hear it with your own ears?"

Mr. Qian's pupils shrank. After hearing the second half of the sentence, he confirmed that they really had overheard outside the study. He couldn't help but curse in his heart:
"This Yao family actually let a few young people sneak in without knowing it. They are such rubbish!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, he quickly calmed down, brushed off his robes, and smiled slightly:

"Xie Yuan, don't slander me. Do you have any evidence to accuse me of killing someone? Don't say that you only heard it."

Xie Yuan unfurled his long sword and said calmly:
"Once I catch you, I'll make you confess everything."

After saying that, he stepped forward directly, and the long sword danced with a white light and suddenly stabbed out!

Mr. Qian confirmed that they had no evidence, and felt relieved. What the two families had done must not be exposed to the world.

But seeing that Xie Yuan dared to attack him directly without saying anything, his eyes turned cold, and he drew a dagger from his sleeve and rushed forward.

Humph, no matter how good the inheritance is, there are only three people in the second transformation realm. You are arrogant and overestimating your own abilities!

Do you think you are great with helpers? Then I will start with you! As long as I kill Xie Yuan, the trouble will be solved.

Mr. Qian dodged and turned into a faint shadow. The short sword was almost invisible under the moonlight. It drew a hidden and tricky trajectory and stabbed towards Xie Yuan from the armpit.

Just this one sword... huh?

Mr. Qian thought he was going to succeed, but he saw Xie Yuan's sword inexplicably draw an arc and block his short sword exactly, blocking it and making it unable to move.

How could he crack it?

He didn't know how many people he had killed with this hidden sword technique that he was so proud of. Ordinary warriors would definitely not be able to dodge it. At most, they could avoid the vital points with a hasty reaction. Even a warrior in the third level of transformation could not avoid it easily.

But how come Xie Yuan's sword seemed to know in advance how I would attack and blocked it easily with just one strike?
Mr. Qian was a little surprised. Before he could think about it, he was about to draw his sword and strike again when two streams of energy rushed towards him from the side.

Huijue threw an ordinary fist at Mr. Qian's left cheek, and Zhang Jun shouted loudly, and the peach wood sword shining with green sword energy chopped at his right arm at the same time!

Mr. Qian's hair stood on end. He felt that although these two people were at the second level of transformation, they could not block the attack head-on. He had to withdraw his sword and take two steps back.

However, if he wanted to retreat, how could Xie Yuan let him do so easily? He swung his long sword and cut directly at Mr. Qian's right arm.

No matter how fast Mr. Qian was, he could not be faster than the sword in front of him. He had to pull back his sword to block Xie Yuan's sword, then slash outward to fight with Zhang Junyi's wooden sword; at the same time, he tried to fight back with his left palm to take Huijue's fist.

With a bang, the fists collided. Mr. Qian's body swayed, and he felt his palms go numb and his heart was shocked.

Where does this monk get so much strength? He is one level lower than me!

Mr. Qian used all his strength to block the combined attack of the three men, but he had already suffered a loss;
The three of them fought with Mr. Qian one by one, and when they saw that they were unable to do anything to him, they felt a chill in their hearts.

The strength of the third level of Qi and Blood should not be underestimated. Mr. Qian's hasty counterattack, the surging Qi and Blood also contained tremendous power, which shocked the three of them slightly.

However, the three young men are not ordinary people. The stronger the enemy, the more excited Zhang Junyi is. Huijue always has a pure smile and remains calm. Xie Yuan has encountered many enemies and is determined. He has fought against masters and has played with two enemies in the third realm alone. What's more, he now has two powerful reinforcements. How could he be afraid?
The three men paused, then rushed forward at the same time, each attacking Mr. Qian.

Mr. Qian was shocked and angry when he saw three warriors who were one level younger than him and one level lower than him taking advantage of him and bullying him. Normally, how could a second-level Qi and Blood Transformation Realm dare to charge at a third-level Qi and Blood Transformation Realm? But seeing that the three warriors had good moves, he couldn't help but feel nervous.

Let's let this guy go for now. If he didn't have help, he would have been in trouble today!

He made a mistake and thought of retreating, but Xie Yuan immediately stopped him:

"Be careful, this guy's feet are very slippery, don't let him get away!"

The other two were also on guard, each blocking a direction. Huijue smiled and said:
"Amitabha! The Qian family's footwork is famous for its sneaky escape. I have heard of it a long time ago. They have to run away as soon as the battle starts. It is well-deserved!"

Zhang Junyi thrust a sword from behind and sneered:
"Will a person at the third level of transformation run away when encountering a person at the second level of transformation?"

Mr. Qian was discovered before he even took a step, so he gritted his teeth and dodged Huijue's fist and Zhang Junyi's sword in a small area, then turned around and rushed towards Xie Yuan again.

If I can't run away easily, I have to deal with this annoying guy first, even if I get hurt, and then I can leave!

He swung his sword down angrily, and the blood energy of the third transformation realm burst forward with a faint light of about an inch, and he had actually used the internal energy!

What a powerful sword strike!
As the sword energy came out, the air in front of Xie Yuan was distorted and alarm bells rang in his heart.

He looked at Mr. Qian, whose face was stern, a faint light flashed in his eyes, and suddenly he seemed to disappear from where he was.

Mr. Qian suddenly lost his target and slashed his sword at the ground where Xie Yuan was standing. With a bang, the blue bricks on the long street exploded, and waves of soil spread to both sides, spreading ten feet away!
Zhang Junyi and Huijue were both awed by the power of this sword; but just as they were worrying about Xie Yuan, they discovered that he slipped away very quickly and got out of the way directly?
Mr. Qian was stunned for a moment when he saw that the sword missed. Then he snorted coldly and his eyes flashed.

You can run fast!
He swung his short sword lightly and swung it backwards. The sword energy was so powerful that Zhang Junyi and Huijue frowned and had to dodge first.

At the same time, Mr. Qian paused, then rushed forward, ready to use the Qian family's world-famous light footwork to leave.

However, just as he took a step, Xie Yuan appeared in front of him, thrusting forward his long sword that had been ready for a long time, waiting for Mr. Qian to rush up on his own!
Mr. Qian was completely unaware of Xie Yuan's figure. He saw him suddenly disappear and then suddenly reappear, with the gleaming tip of the sword pointing at him, and he was immediately scared to death.

This step is as fast as lightning, and if you stab the sword yourself, it will probably make a big hole!

Originally, Xie Yuan's own swordsmanship might not be enough to make him so nervous, but now it is equivalent to him using his strength in the third level of transformation to charge forward himself, which is a matter of life and death.

At the critical moment, Mr. Qian once again demonstrated his strength and resourcefulness. He crouched down and slid to his knees, gliding on the water, and was about to slip under Xie Yuan's sword.

He was afraid that Xie Yuan would change from stabbing to slashing, so with a flash of inspiration in his mind, he viciously stabbed the dagger diagonally at Xie Yuan's lower abdomen and once again used his undetectable hidden sword technique.

With the momentum, this sword coupled with his tyrannical blood and energy, the Second Transformation Realm would definitely be unable to resist!
Xie Yuan watched Mr. Qian display his unpredictable body movements. He was a beat slow to react and was about to let him rush past;
However, when he felt this tricky and fierce sword, an idea flashed in his mind, and the long sword suddenly turned in a natural arc and stabbed the hilt and blade of Mr. Qian's short sword first.

Mr. Qian had never expected that the sword could come at him like this. He had no reaction at all. He just felt the sword in his hand loosen inexplicably and flew out while spinning.

Although the sword did not pierce Mr. Qian, he was also affected by the huge recoil force, and his sliding kneeling momentum stopped, and he knelt right in front of Xie Yuan.

Xie Yuan stood beside him, holding a long sword. The two of them stared at each other for a moment, and fell into an eerie silence.

What happened?
Three people in the field had this thought at the same time.

How come Mr. Qian dodged and charged at Xie Yuan with sword in hand, and in the next instant he was kneeling down with bare hands?
The weapon of a master in the third transformation realm was knocked away at the first encounter?
Huijue and Zhang Junyi both opened their eyes wide. They didn't understand how Xie Yuan could lead Mr. Qian into a trap in a flash, and the subsequent sword move that was like a stab from the sky shocked them even more.

With one strike, Mr. Qian's weapon fell out of his hand. It seemed like a battle between the third and second transformation realms of Qi and Blood. In terms of sword moves alone, the difference was almost that between a master and a student!

Mr. Qian was even more shocked.

His swordsmanship was honed through thousands of years, without any fancy moves, extremely efficient, and almost flawless; however, how did the sword slip out of his hand before he could react?

Is this person in front of me really one level lower in strength than me?

However, the silence in the scene was only for a moment. After all, Mr. Qian was at that level, and he stood up immediately.

However, Xie Yuan swung his sword towards his neck, forcing him to turn his head and dodge. Just as he was about to punch back, a monk and a Taoist priest behind him joined the battle.

The two swords stabbed at each other. Although it was the first time they cooperated, it showed the tacit understanding between the geniuses. Mr. Qian couldn't take the attack head-on, so he had to dodge. Although Huijue only had a pair of bare fists, with the blessing of the world's top hard power, the Immortal Golden Bell Cover, even the Black Soldier Iron Hammer was no better than him, which made Mr. Qian even more afraid.

Although Mr. Qian's blood and energy realm was higher than the other three, he was not a martial artist who followed the path of horizontal training. He was already stretched to the limit when facing the siege of three people, and his combat effectiveness was greatly reduced once he let go of his weapon.

When he realized that something was not going right, he wanted to rely on his cultivation to force a breakthrough, but he was pinned down by the tacit cooperation of the three men. After a few more rounds, Xie Yuan's sword was placed on his neck, while Zhang Junyi's wooden sword and Huijue's fist were right next to him, faintly covering his vital points.

Mr. Qian looked extremely unhappy. He didn't expect that he, a genius from an aristocratic family and a senior warrior who was one level higher than them, would be captured alive by three juniors in just a few rounds!
Although the fight between the few people was fast and furious, it was actually over in just a moment.

Even though there were three geniuses, after all, they were all at the second level of transformation, and he was defeated too quickly... and they were captured alive.

It is easy to win or even kill in battle, but it is twice as difficult to capture the enemy alive.

Huijue and Zhang Junyi did not expect it to be so smooth. They thought there would be a fierce battle, but Huijue did not even have to use his Arhat Dharma Body, and Zhang Junyi did not use his hidden skills, and they easily took down the enemy.

They looked at each other quietly, then glanced at Xie Yuan, only to see that he looked calm and turned to them:

"Do you have the means to control him?"

Huijue nodded, stretched out a finger, pointed at Mr. Qian's dantian area, and then held his waist:
"With the help of the Vajra Finger and the Dragon Claw, it will be no problem to capture him."

Mr. Qian instantly felt all the strength in his body drain away like the tide. He looked a little panicked and said in a deep voice:

"I advise you to let him go as soon as possible... eh."

Before he could finish his words, Zhang Junyi slapped him on the back of the head, causing his eyes to roll back and he fainted.

Huijue frowned:
"Taoist, what are you doing?"

"What's the use of this skill or that skill? It's better to just use a slap. After all, this is the third level of transformation."

Zhang Junyi sneered.

Huijue twitched his lips:
"You are a reckless man from Xuanzhen Sect. You don't have the skills I have. Can you break his protective blood energy with your slap?"

Xie Yuan stopped the quarrel between the two and said in a deep voice:

"Get out of here first."

Although they moved quickly, if they delayed any longer here, they might be discovered by the Yao family.

The three of them spread out their bodies together, turned into shadows, and flew out of the city.

I hope the noise doesn't attract the attention of the Yao family's masters...at least we have to be slower.

Xie Yuan thought silently.

His movements were already quite fast. Although the three of them were all geniuses of the time, there were no ordinary people who could reach the third transformation realm, and those from aristocratic families who reached the third transformation realm were even more powerful. Especially since Mr. Qian did not look very old, he must have been the rising star of the family.

To capture a person at the third level of transformation, let alone defeat him, it would have taken a lot of effort even if the three of them joined forces, and there might even be some injuries. However, the result was unexpectedly smooth.

The main reason was that Xie Yuan knocked off Mr. Qian's weapon, which was like pulling out a tiger's teeth, greatly damaging his combat effectiveness. With this advantage, it was naturally effortless to capture him.

If he hadn't insisted on using the sword and collided with the activation of [Sword Heart], it might not have been so easy... Unless he was a master swordsman, facing Xie Yuan, there would be a risk of being discovered at any time, and his combat power would be reduced by 30%.

And the scene at that time, going back further, was also an opportunity created by Xie Yuan using the Heavenly Hidden Technique, allowing Mr. Qian to try to escape from what seemed to be a gap, but ended up falling into a life-or-death situation.

Xie Yuan, who uses the Sky Hidden Technique, is elusive and it is impossible for anyone below the Grandmaster level to identify his whereabouts. This, coupled with a powerful killing move, is Xie Yuan's real means.

Even Huijue could not resist this combination of punches. The combination of Tianyinshu and Hengsweeping Thousands of Troops was on par with the inheritance of a grandmaster, and it had not been used on Mr. Qian yet.

Huijue and Zhang Junyi also knew who had contributed the most in this battle, and they were both quietly looking at Xie Yuan's figure.

Huijue's eyes were full of interest, as if he found it interesting, while Zhang Junyi was eager to try and was full of fighting spirit.

He looked at Xie Yuan, then at Mr. Qian in Huijue's hand, and said with some disdain:

"He has such a high level of cultivation, but he only knows how to escape. In a street fight, we all know that we can't fight evenly. It's better to break one finger than to hurt ten fingers. If he fights hard right away, we may not be able to capture him alive."

Huijue said:

"The Qian family's tradition has always been to put life-saving first. Otherwise, why do you think footwork is ranked first among the noble families? Their old grandfather was also a warrior of the previous generation, and he relied on his long life to gain experience."

Zhang Jun's eyes flashed:
"Then the one who wants to prolong his life is the old man from the Qian family, right?"

"Amitabha, it's probably this old immortal."

Huijue is the way without sorrow or joy.

Xie Yuan did not speak, determined to get the whole truth of this series of events from Mr. Qian. Why did he kill Wang Zhiyi, what did he find out, whether this evil method of prolonging life was true or false, who was involved... etc. Catching such a key figure, many problems must be solved, and he cannot die too easily.

"Master Huijue, you should be able to torture and interrogate prisoners, right?"

Xie Yuan asked.

Huijue looked innocent:
"Amitabha! Thank you for your kindness, don't slander me. I am just a compassionate monk, how can I be so good at this?"

Xie Yuan calmly analyzed:
"Just by looking at the nonsense you speak, I know you are not a serious monk. These things are probably not difficult for you."

"Thank you, benefactor. You will go to hell if you say that about a monk..."

"careful!"

Xie Yuan suddenly cried out in surprise, and the three of them simultaneously sensed a violent energy attack and suddenly rushed to the side.

boom!
A sharp sword energy struck directly at the place where the three men had just stood, blasting a big hole in the street.

The three of them fell to the ground in a panic. Looking back, they saw a figure on the roof in the distance flying towards them at an incredible speed in the moonlight.

Under the almost full moon, a faint human figure came on the wind like a fairy under the moon, bringing with it great power.

Grandmaster! Xie Yuan and the other two all had slightly changed expressions. Seeing the figure who was obviously coming with ill intentions, they instantly became 120% alert.

A Grand Master is chasing after me...

"Who is this lunatic who dares to act rashly in Jinling?"

A chilling voice sounded, and the figure came closer in the blink of an eye, revealing the figure of an old man in a gorgeous robe.

Xie Yuan recognized at a glance that the old man was one of the masters of the Yao family, Yao Yilong.

When the three men saw the Grandmaster catching up with them, it was too late to run away, so they had to take up their stances and face the old man with extreme caution.

Yao Yilong looked at the three people and snorted disdainfully:
"A gnat trying to shake a tree is overestimating its own strength."

He could tell at a glance that several of them were at the second level of Qi and Blood Transformation, yet they dared to show their weapons against him, a master!

Yao Yilong was furious. He glanced around and saw Mr. Qian in Huijue's hand, and was slightly surprised.

Three Level 2 Transformation Realm masters captured this guy alive? The younger generation of the Qian family is a bit useless.

Looking at the three monks and Taoists gathered together, Yao Yilong's heart moved, looking at Huijue, he said lightly:

"Young man, tell me your identity. If you claim to be your master, I may not kill you for the sake of your elders."

Huijue put his palms together and said innocently:

"Amitabha! I am Huijue, a humble monk, who has been practicing under the tutelage of Master Zhiling from the Prajna Temple. I am honored to have met this senior master."

Yao Yilong's expression froze. Could it be that Huijue?

Of course he heard the howl during the day, otherwise he wouldn't have thought of asking this question.

If any other young warrior dared to kidnap someone in Jinling, even if they were from the four sects or eight families, he would capture them first.

But if he was the disciple of the wise monk, he would naturally find out first...

Yao Yilong's face darkened slightly, but his expression suddenly changed. He looked at Xie Yuan and said with narrowed eyes:

"So you are the Xie Yuan?"

No, I’m Zhang Shan…

However, although the Grandmaster's undisguised aura was extremely stressful, Xie Yuan also knew that it was too late to conceal his identity, so he smiled calmly:
"Junior Yunzhou Xie Yuan greets Master Yao."

Seeing Xie Yuan smiling freely and simply admitting his identity, Yao Yilong's eyes flashed, and the three young men felt a chill on their backs, as if the night was filled with murderous intent.

"Well, you actually dare to come to Jinling. Young people are really brave and brave. A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger!"

The old man said calmly, seemingly praising, but actually his tone was full of sarcasm.

He held a sword in his hand, standing still in the air, looking Xie Yuan up and down, already ready to kill him.

The three of them all showed extremely solemn expressions. If they were at the third level of Qi and Blood Transformation, they would not be afraid if the three of them joined forces.

But the person in front of him was the Grandmaster.

Not to mention that they are only at the second level of Qi and Blood Transformation, even if the three of them have broken through their cultivation at this time, they dare not say that they can do anything to the Grandmaster.

Three geniuses at the second transformation realm may be able to easily capture a warrior at the third transformation realm, but three genius warriors at the third transformation realm, even if they join forces, may not be a match for the grandmaster.

Which master was not a genius when he was young? The transformation from the second stage of Qi and blood to the third stage of Qi and blood is already huge, and opening up the bridge between heaven and earth and taking another step beyond the limits of the human body is even more different from the previous level.

Huijue left Mr. Qian aside and was already in high spirits, and the same was true for the other two.

Facing the Grandmaster's murderous aura, Xie Yuan and the other two did not dare to be distracted for even a moment.

Yao Yilong glanced at the few people with disdain in his eyes. Especially when he looked at Xie Yuan, his eyes were even more dangerous.

However, although the pressure on him was already great, he did not make a move. Instead, he paused and looked at Zhang Junyi again:

"Little Taoist priest, which family are you from?"

"Xuanzhen Sect, Zhang Junyi."

Zhang Junyi answered without fear. He was not afraid of others knowing his master.

Yao Yilong's eyelids jumped again, and he continued to ask:
"Who is your master?"

"My master's name is Yuxu."

Zhang Junyi smiled and replied.

Yao Yilong's pupils shrank, and he said subconsciously:

"Impossible! Jade Void Master only has a few disciples, all of whom are world-famous masters."

"Oh, I was accepted into the mountain by the old Taoist priest a few years ago. I am considered his last disciple."

Zhang Junyi said indifferently.

When Yao Yilong heard the words "closed disciple", his eyelids twitched violently and a ridiculous thought arose in his mind.

What kind of magic potion did Xie Yuan use to make almost all the young monks and Taoists with the most powerful backgrounds in the world come together to cause trouble for him?

One is the last disciple of the head of Xuanzhen Sect, the other is the favorite disciple of the abbot of Prajna Temple... Is this what the two masters intended?
Yao Yilong was in doubt and his expression changed for a long time before he slowly said:
"You two are the great disciples of the Prajna Temple and Xuanzhen Sect. The Yao family has always respected the two sects and treated them with courtesy. Why did you come to Jinling and disturb their sweet dreams in the middle of the night?"

He was quite tactful in his words. He was about to point out the mistakes of the two and then give them a way out, but Huijue put his palms together and said with a smile:
"Amitabha! My master heard that the Yao family has a secret method to prolong life, so he specially asked me to come and take a look."

When Yao Yilong heard this, his face suddenly changed, and even turned pale in the moonlight:
"Is this what the wise monk meant? That's not the case. Little Master Huijue, please don't talk nonsense."

Huijue smiled and said:

"I haven't said whether I have it or not yet, Master Yao, please don't be nervous."

Yao Yilong's expression changed constantly, and he didn't dare to say anything more. He just said:
"Two young masters, there was a misunderstanding today, so please go back first."

Xie Yuan saw that the two were let off so easily, and Mr. Qian was even lying at Huijue's feet, and he couldn't help but feel envious. It's good to have a big background. When the enemy sees you, they have to find excuses for you, for fear of provoking you.

But when he saw Huijue glance at him with a half-smile on his face, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

Wait, I originally wanted to use these two people as shields, but the Yao family didn’t dare to shoot at the target, so they let them go...

Don't you have to try your best to find fault with yourself?
As expected, Huijue said leisurely:
"Thank you, Master Yao. Then I and Mr. Xie will leave together..."

"He can't."

Yao Yilong's face darkened:
"This man has a grudge against our Yao family and once killed a member of our branch family in public. I have something to ask him today. Master Huijue, don't worry, I'll just invite him back to the house for a cup of tea."

His tone was unquestionable, and although he spoke nicely, his implication was obvious. If Xie Yuan really followed him back to the Yao family, he would never be able to leave again.

Huijue smiled and sighed:

"Thank you, benefactor. It seems you can't leave."

Xie Yuan nodded and said with a smile:

"Old Yao is afraid that I will expose the big news to him."

Zhang Junyi shook his head:
"We all know that he is a bully and doesn't dare to even fart."

Xie Yuan chuckled:
"Pick the weak and squeeze the weak. This is the way for the aristocratic family to survive."

Seeing the three people talking back and forth, Yao Yilong's face turned even darker as he saw them not taking him seriously. As a master of a noble family, how could he have ever received such courtesy in his life?

But watching Huijue and Zhang Junyi talking, he could only turn a blind eye and said to Xie Yuan in a deep voice:
"Xie Yuan, please come with me. I advise you to be sensible and not let me invite you."

Before Xie Yuan could speak, Huijue said:
"Master Yao, Mr. Xie and I have known each other for a long time. I would like to invite him to the Prajna Temple for a visit. Please do not take him away."

Xie Yuan looked at Huijue, somewhat surprised. He was actually willing to use the name of Prajna Temple to pull him in?
Unfortunately, this was useless. Yao Yilong just frowned and said coldly:

"Master Huijue, I respect Master Zhiling and the Zen master of Prajna Temple, so I will be polite to you. But you should also respect my Yao family. However, how can a mere junior tell me to do things? You should wait until you become a master!"

Upon hearing this, Huijue sighed and said seriously:
"Okay, since Grandmaster Yao said so, I will definitely come to find you when I become a Grandmaster."

Yao Yilong's eyebrows jumped when he heard this, and he couldn't help but look at Huijue, thinking that this should be just a young man who couldn't save face and said harsh words? He shouldn't take it seriously, right?
Zhang Junyi also said loudly at this time:

"I also get along well with Brother Xie, and I plan to invite him to Luofu Mountain to discuss Taoism. We will leave now."

Xie Yuan's heart was moved again. He and Zhang Junyi had even less contact, so they had a lot of common topics about cracking down on corrupt officials. He didn't expect that they met by chance, but he found the Taoist priest so loyal.

When Yao Yilong saw that Zhang Junyi was endorsing the Xuanzhen Sect again and that the true disciples of the two major sects in the world wanted to protect Xie Yuan, he suddenly felt tremendous pressure.

How can this Xie Yuan, at such a young age, have such a wide circle of friends? He is now so powerful and well connected. Since he has already made an enemy, what will happen if he is released?

Especially what he heard and saw in Wuhe, it was obvious that he didn't want to let go, so it was no wonder that he...

Yao Yilong shook his head and said in a deep voice:

"Your words are useless. My Jinling Yao family is no longer a nobody. We have stood by the river for a thousand years. Although we are weak now, we did invite your Second Sect Master to come to Jinling City to preach a thousand years ago! Today, I will definitely take down Xie Yuan. Youngsters, please leave immediately!"

He held the sword horizontally and pointed it at Xie Yuan. A cold sword intent emanated in the night sky, and a cold wind suddenly blew along the long street.

Huijue and Zhang Junyi both looked stern and serious, while Xie Yuan quietly counted his trump cards, ready to use them.

Huijue sighed, took a step forward, and stood beside Xie Yuan:

"Amitabha, in this case, I will have no choice but to join forces with Benefactor Xie once again."

"me too."

Zhang Junyi also stood next to Xie Yuan.

Xie Yuan's eyes revealed a hint of emotion. Facing an invincible powerful enemy, there were companions willing to stand up and fight side by side. This feeling made his blood boil.

Yao Yilong's face was gloomy. He took a breath and said coldly:

"You are young and naive. What can you change?"

He raised his sword, flashed past, and suddenly appeared in front of Xie Yuan, handing out the sword lightly.

So fast!

too fast!
The three of them were all shocked. Even though they were all disciples of small sects who had seen a grandmaster before, they could only feel the pressure when they became the grandmaster's real enemy.

Xie Yuan was prepared in advance and used his sword to block the attack. Although his amazing swordsmanship saw the trajectory of Yao Yilong's swordsmanship, he was unable to break it like before.

How could a grandmaster's swordsmanship have so many flaws? Even if there were moves that could break it, Xie Yuan's speed and strength could not keep up, so it would be useless.

But it was not easy to see this sword that was as fast as lightning. Xie Yuan lightly blocked it with his long sword, and his whole body felt like it was struck by lightning. He almost lost all his strength, but he finally managed to deflect the sword a little.

呲——

The long sword brushed past Xie Yuan's arm, leaving a trail of blood.

Yao Yilong was a little surprised. Looking at Xie Yuan's expression, that handsome face was solemn, serious, earnest, and calm, but there was no trace of panic, and even... a hint of excitement and trembling.

This guy... Yao Yilong's expression darkened, and he was about to take him down, but he found that this was the last time he saw Xie Yuan.

The next moment, the young man disappeared right in front of him.

what?
What's going on, where are the people?
Yao Yilong was shocked. What kind of martial arts was this?
The Grandmaster's perception and methods are extraordinary. Not to mention the younger ones at the Qi and Blood Transformation Stage, even his peers may not be able to suddenly escape from him without being noticed.

He was in a moment of confusion, which went completely against common sense.

But the master is the master after all. The next moment he felt something was wrong around him and seemed to see a blurry figure beside him.

If Xie Yuan could remain unnoticed, he could evade the Grandmaster's perception.

But he has been locked in by Yao Yilong's energy. If he wants to avoid it completely, he will probably have to advance his Tianyin Technique to the next level.

Even so, Xie Yuan had already gained a glimmer of hope, and even though Yao Yilong discovered the clues, his perception was vague, and he even felt unsure whether he could stab Xie Yuan with a sword.

He frowned, feeling uncomfortable as if things were out of his control. He decided to capture Xie Yuan as soon as possible to avoid any further complications.

Yao Yilong was just about to thrust his sword at the blurry spot next to him, but a huge white and golden fist appeared before his eyes.

He paused, then slapped the fist away with his palm, sending Huijue, whose monk robe was torn, flying backwards, and his palm felt slightly numb.

He looked at Huijue in surprise, whose body shape was completely different and as strong as a diamond. He was startled. If this monk had reached the third level of cultivation, he might still cause trouble for him.

But now... the thought flashed through his mind, and just as he was about to continue chasing Xie Yuan, a clear air rising into the sky beside him instantly attracted his attention.

Zhang Junyi raised the peach wood sword high above his head, muttering something, with clear air surrounding him and lightning flashing on the wooden sword. He actually looked so awe-inspiring that Yao Yilong's eyes narrowed.

Looking at the dark clouds floating overhead, Yao Yilong was surprised. He snorted coldly and stabbed the young Taoist priest with his sword.

Seeing this, Zhang Junyi had no choice but to swing out the peach wood sword in advance. A flash of lightning suddenly shot towards Yao Yilong, but was directly dispersed by his sword energy.

Smelling the burnt smell coming from his sleeves, Yao Yilong's face turned black.

He was a grandmaster, but when facing three warriors at the second level of Qi and Blood Transformation, both of his moves missed. Not only did he fail to capture the enemy, he was also punched and stabbed by a sword, and his robes were damaged!

If he told others about it, how would he save his face?
But the three people in front of him were so difficult to deal with that Yao Yilong even felt like they were in some trouble.

He didn't dare to hit these two guys hard, but not hitting them would definitely affect him, so the attacks couldn't be completely ignored!
It is also amazing that the moves of the second level of Qi and Blood can pose a threat to the Grandmaster.

But speaking of it, the first time Xie Yuan became famous was when it was rumored that he could injure a master during his training... Wait, where is he now?
Yao Yilong suddenly discovered that due to the interruption of the two people, his perception had lost the trace of Xie Yuan!
His eyes were as fast as lightning, sweeping across the scene and looking towards the other end of the long street. He was wondering if Xie Yuan had escaped in this direction when he suddenly felt a chill on his back and turned around abruptly.

Behind him, Xie Yuan's body was shining with golden light, his muscles were bulging, and his blood was thriving, as if he had also performed the Vajra Dharma.

However, Yao Yilong didn't care about these. He just looked at the big axe that appeared in his hand at some point. There was a dark light condensed on it, which was compressed to the extreme and condensed into a point on the axe blade. It had already taken shape.

Yao Yilong's face changed drastically, and he showed nervousness for the first time. He watched Xie Yuan exhale and speak, and then he swung the axe towards him. His long sword suddenly surging with extremely powerful energy and lifted it up.

The fierce power of this sword directly created a tornado on the flat ground, and even blew away the dark clouds in the sky!
The axe and the long sword collided with each other, and the sound that made people's teeth ache woke up the whole Jinling.

boom--

The energy tornado blasted Xie Yuan away directly. He spat out a mouthful of blood in the air and his spirit instantly became a little weak.

Although he had the upper hand, the Grandmaster's reaction was enough to infuse 60 to 70 percent of his strength into this sword. This time, Xie Yuan took a heavy blow from the Grandmaster one-on-one and was severely injured instantly.

But Yao Yilong was not unscathed either.

Although he blocked the axe, he took three steps back and his right hand holding the sword trembled continuously.

He raised his hand and took a look. There was a big cut on the palm of his hand, and black air was faintly destroying it. It was only extinguished by his own blood after a while.

However, he felt pain from the cut on his palm, and blood flowed out, instantly dyeing the hilt red.

Yao Yilong silently switched the sword to his left hand and looked at Xie Yuan expressionlessly, but his eyes were filled with shock that he could not conceal.

he got hurt.

As a master, he fought one-on-one with Xie Yuan, who had achieved the second transformation of Qi and blood, and then he was injured.

And if he hadn't discovered it in time, he would have been more than just injured.

This axe is enough to kill the master.
