Zhu Tian: Starting from the Laughing Proud Yue Buqun

Chapter 176 The martial arts world is shaken, and the six major sects hold discussions.
As time went by, the battle of the six major sects besieging Bright Peak had ended more than ten days ago.

Following Xu Qing's instructions, Wei Yixiao had already spread the news of the six major sects' defeat and capture throughout the martial arts world.

This news shocked the entire martial arts world.

The news of the six major sects besieging Bright Peak had been widely circulated and known throughout the martial arts world.

All sects, large and small, are paying attention to this matter. The six major sects are the six strongest righteous sects.

Under such a terrifying siege, most people in the martial arts world thought that the Ming Cult was likely doomed.

After all, the Ming Cult was just a large sect, and it was often fragmented and leaderless.

Under these circumstances, no one believed that the Ming Cult could withstand the siege of the six major righteous sects.

But when Wei Yixiao's news came out, everyone was shocked.

Unexpectedly, the losing side was the six major factions!

The Ming Cult actually captured all the masters and disciples of the six major sects who were besieging Bright Peak.

This news clearly shows that the Ming Cult suffered very few losses in this battle.

The entire martial arts world was extremely curious about the specifics of that battle!

After all, before this, the Ming Cult, which was clearly at a disadvantage, would have had a hard time winning.

Finally, through the efforts of those who were interested, it was learned from the disciples of the Ming Cult that the Ming Cult had a new leader named Xu Qing.

Xu Qing appeared and instantly and forcefully suppressed the siege of numerous masters from the six major sects.

It is even rumored that Xu Qing is a young master whose martial arts skills have reached the pinnacle of the martial arts world, enough to rival Zhang Zhenren, the number one righteous master.

The release of this secret news once again shook the martial arts world.

Meanwhile, many others remain skeptical of this news.

After all, the Innate Grandmaster is a realm that countless martial arts practitioners aspire to.

How could anyone possibly reach such a legendary realm at such a young age?

This is truly unbelievable!
However, as time went on, more people learned about the specific details of that battle.

More and more people in the martial arts world have had to accept the rumor.

Xu Qing might really be a young master.

After all, apart from the deceased Kongjian, the other three of the four great Shaolin monks participated in the siege, but were all easily suppressed by Xu Qing.

This is a fact, not just a rumor.

With such strength, how could he not be a grandmaster?

Many people believe that this must be a grandmaster.

Only a grandmaster could suppress a top expert so easily.

The people of the six major sects, including Shaolin, Kongtong, and Kunlun, were shocked and incredulous when they learned that their leaders, elders, and other masters had all been defeated.

But as the news became more and more believable, none of their sect members ever returned.

They had no choice but to accept this fact.

When the experts from the six major sects learned that they would have to exchange money and weapons for the hostages, they all angrily cursed the Ming Cult for being despicable and shameless.

But they dared not rush toward Bright Peak in the Western Regions again.

After all, those who participated in the siege of Bright Peak were all the strongest or the backbone of their respective sects.

Apart from Wudang and Shaolin, the remaining sects only had disciples and elders who were not very strong.

Many disciples from the six major sects remained in the Kunlun Mountains, originally to provide support.

However, upon learning this news, they were first shocked, and then fell silent.

Then they all gathered together to discuss how to handle the matter.

"The evil cult is far too rampant!"

"They are threatening us!"

"If you won't exchange them for money, weapons, or armor, then we'll kill everyone who's been captured. That's a clear threat!"

"Are we really going to follow the instructions of the demonic cult?!" "We are the righteous path, how can we obey the demonic cult!"

People from the six major sects gathered at a restaurant to vent their frustrations from the past few days.

"But if we don't do as the Demonic Sect says, I'm afraid they really will kill everyone!"

The female disciple of the Emei Sect frowned, looking very worried.

The Demonic Sect has always been ruthless and decisive in its actions; it is by no means a benevolent group.

If they say they'll kill, they really mean it!

What the Emei Sect is worried about is also what other sects are worried about.

Those arrested this time are either sect elders or important figures within the sect; none of them can be easily killed.

If they all died at the hands of the Ming Cult, the six major sects would be severely weakened and would never again be among the strongest righteous sects.

Even Shaolin and Wudang could not withstand such losses.

"Sir, could you please invite the venerable monks of Shaolin Temple to come out of the mountains and subdue that fiend?"

A middle-aged man from the Huashan Sect looked at the Shaolin monks.

Among the six major sects, the Shaolin sect is the strongest, a fact universally acknowledged throughout the martial arts world.

Besides the four renowned monks, there are also three old monsters in Shaolin Temple. They are true powerhouses, peerless beings at the level of innate grandmasters.

In this situation, they have no choice but to pin their hopes on the masters and experts of Shaolin Temple.

The elderly monk leading the Shaolin Temple frowned his snow-white brows, shook his head, and said:
"I'm afraid I can't be sure about this matter either. The three Shaolin monks are all quite old and haven't been down the mountain for many years."

"The chances of getting the Three Monks to come out are slim. In my humble opinion, perhaps we should ask Master Zhang of Wudang to uphold justice!"

The Three Monks of Shaolin Temple represent the foundation of the Shaolin School; each of them is a powerful master at the innate level.

They rarely leave the temple, and it's impossible for them to separate; they reside within the temple's Demon-Suppressing Tower.

You can only go to the Demon Suppression Tower if the Shaolin Temple is facing a crisis of destruction.

Otherwise, these younger generations should not disturb them.

This is also why he turned the problem to the Wudang Sect.

Master Zhang of the Wudang Sect is now recognized as the strongest in the righteous martial arts world. If Master Zhang were to take action, he would surely be able to successfully suppress and kill the leader of the Demonic Sect.

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gaze toward the person from the Wudang Sect who was in charge of providing backup.

The Taoist priest was relatively young. Seeing that Shaolin Temple had passed the matter on to Wudang, he frowned slightly, then smiled wryly and said:
"You may not know that our Wudang Sect's founder has been in seclusion for many days and it is absolutely impossible to disturb him."

Upon hearing this, everyone's faces showed displeasure.

"Are we really going to bow down to the evil cult?!"

"If that's really the case, I'm afraid our six major sects will become a laughingstock among all our fellow practitioners in the martial arts world from now on!"

"Our Huashan Sect may not be afraid of becoming a laughing stock, but Shaolin is a sacred place in the martial arts world. If it is to become an object of ridicule by people in the martial arts world, it will only damage the dignity of Shaolin Temple as a sacred place."

"That's right. Wudang and Shaolin are both sacred places in the martial arts world. If they were to truly bow down, Wudang and Shaolin would be looked down upon by all martial arts practitioners in the world!"

People from the Kunlun Sect, Huashan Sect, and Kongtong Sect all spoke up, their faces full of righteous indignation, all seemingly acting in the best interests of the Wudang and Shaolin Sects.

But both Wudang and Shaolin understood that this was a veiled attack from several sects.

The people from Wudang and Shaolin Temple turned pale upon hearing this, and frowned. After some deliberation, the two factions decided to ask for permission.

We absolutely cannot bow down to the evil cult this time. We must rescue them, and we will also destroy the evil cult!

After the decision was made, people from both the Wudang and Shaolin sects sent messages to their respective sects.

The members of the Kunlun Sect, Huashan Sect, Kongtong Sect, and Emei Sect also showed a hint of satisfaction upon seeing this.

If either Wudang or Shaolin has a grandmaster willing to intervene, then this matter can be resolved.

They were also able to reduce many losses!
