In the beginning, he was ranked alongside An Shigeng as a spoiled brat.

Rumble rumble rumble...

The exit of the stupa opened, and Xie Xun hurriedly tried to rush out.

However, a sharp, piercing sound cut through the air, accompanied by an extremely shrill cry. Xie Xun immediately rolled away, dodging the fatal blow.

But the sound of something cutting through the air stopped abruptly in front of the Buddha statue, like an ordinary falling leaf slowly descending to the ground.

The technique of shooting and stopping is not the sword in one's hand, but rather an extension of the body.

This is like spilled water; there's no way to take it back.

"Amitabha! What a beautiful finger gesture!"

The three great monks, including Abbot Juesheng, all looked on with amazement.

Xie Xun frowned, not expecting that the Buddhist sect had sent a formidable figure this time, perhaps no less powerful than the last Venerable Monk Kongxing.

Last time, when Kongxing made his move, killing him was as easy as slaughtering a dog!

boom!

Suddenly, a loud bang was heard, and the stupa closed again.

In an instant, Xie Xun's mind raced. He realized that the footsteps he couldn't hear indicated that the person's martial arts skills were unfathomable!

"Amitabha Buddha, this humble monk Mingchen greets the Dharma King!"

"Fourth Sister!?"

She could deceive anyone; even if the two envoys of Xiaoyao and Yang Dingtian were alive, they would not recognize Ming Chen in her current form. But there was one person she could not deceive.

This is also Xie Xun's talent for recognizing people by their voices after he went blind.

Disguise and such techniques are completely useless against Xie Xun.

"I never expected that Third Brother would still remember his little sister!"

Even Xie Xun couldn't help but show a look of shock at this moment.

I never imagined that the Buddhist master I thought I knew was actually the Purple-Robed Dragon King from back then!

Ten years passed, and it had only been a little over a decade since I last saw the Purple-Robed Dragon King. I never imagined that he had become a monk and that his strength had surpassed that of his predecessors.

Back then, the Purple-Robed Dragon King was the leader of the Four Great Dharma Kings, but he only gave way to her because she was the youngest.

"Since Fourth Sister has become a nun, she has completely severed ties with Zoroastrianism. May I ask what her purpose is in coming here?"

"Back in the Zoroastrian community, I had the deepest bond with my third brother, and I also learned about his tragedy."

Mingchen has come this time to offer Third Brother a glimmer of hope.

"A glimmer of hope? What hope?"

"Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately!"

"Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot? Hahaha..."

Fourth Sister, needless to say, I, Xie Xun, swear I will not be a man if I do not kill Cheng Kun. I will never let go of my grudges and become a monk!

Zhang Xiaoshan's idea of ​​"being able to be redeemed" refers to redeeming someone through family affection.

Not to mention that Zhang Wuji was still young, Xie Xun's hatred had been worn away by time, so it was impossible for him to let go of his grudges and become a monk.

"Amitabha!"

Even Ming Chen couldn't help but sigh at that murderous intent, feeling a pang of reluctance.

"Fourth Sister, how is the Zoroastrianism doing now?"

"The Zoroastrianism? The Five Elements Banner has been destroyed, and three of the five great wandering masters are gone."

As for the Four Great Protectors? The eldest brother's Eagle Sect is currently at its zenith in Jiangnan, and if the third brother is also doomed, only the Bat King and Yang Xiao remain at Bright Peak to hold things together.

"how could this be?"

Xie Xun stared in disbelief in Ming Chen's direction with his white eyes.

The once vast Zoroastrian cult, teeming with experts, has unexpectedly dwindled to only two or three big cats remaining.

"In fact, it all has something to do with the Bat King's greed, and it's also related to my little sister!"

then···"

After being reported by the Zhang family and falling into the hands of the Persian Grand Sect, only to be rescued by the Zhang family again and transformed into Ming Chen...

Even Xie Xun hadn't expected the Persian headquarters to arrive so quickly.

Xie Xun was somewhat angry with the Zhang family, but he also knew that from a business perspective, the Zhang family was not wrong.

The Zhang family are merchants; by cultivating a good relationship with the Persian religious leader, they can definitely reap tenfold rewards.

Moreover, Dai Qisi faked her death and escaped the pursuit of the Persian sect. If it weren't for the distant voice that allowed him to recognize Ming Chen as the Dai Qisi from back then, and his behavior being completely unrelated to the Dai Qisi of that time, he would have been completely mistaken.

In particular, Dai Qisi also changed to a face from someone from the Central Plains.

This isn't a disguise, but a complete transformation. It's likely that from now on, besides him, no one will know that Ming Chen is actually Dai Qisi.

"Twenty million taels of gold? The Zhang family is incredibly generous; no wonder the Bat King was tempted!"

Was the Zhang family wrong? He knew the Zhang family was right.

This immense merit would be deeply admired even by someone who is not a Zoroastrian.

However, Xie Xun was the Golden Lion King of the Zoroastrian Church, so if he had the Dragon-Slaying Saber, he would not hesitate to storm the Zhang family.

This is a matter of stance.

Unfortunately, let alone the mysterious Zhang family, Xie Xun was no match for even the Mingchen Master before him.

From the story, he learned that Ming Chen had become a 'guest retainer' of the Zhang family, and even had a close relationship with a mysterious young master of the Zhang family.

"It was thanks to him that Zhang Cuishan and his wife were able to escape safely this time."

Out of respect for Master Zhang, he released Zhang Cuishan and his wife to return to the Central Plains, and even arranged for them to secretly return to Wudang, thus fulfilling one of his third brother's wishes.

"Really? I'd like to know if they leaked my information?"

Although Xie Xun believed that Zhang Cuishan would not betray him, he still had a knot in his heart.

Even if he was in a magnanimous state of mind, how could he not be suspicious when Zhang Cuishan had just returned and he was arrested here?

"No, it was just a coincidence."

Third Brother, you may not know this, but the Zhang family had a large ship that was traveling from the North Sea to the cold lands and then back to the Central Plains. On the way, they encountered Zhang Cuishan and his wife, who were traveling on a bamboo raft.

At that time, there were four top-tier martial arts masters and over thirty first-rate Shaolin monks escorting the ship.

Hiss...

Hearing about the strength of the escort fleet, even Xie Xun couldn't help but gasp.

"After returning, the Zhang family's decision-making suddenly changed, and the group had to return to the coldest place in Beihai again, including Zhang Cuishan and his wife, who had to be brought back in order to keep their whereabouts secret."

When he saw everyone off, he discovered the identities of Zhang Cuishan and his wife.

Based on the location where Zhang Cuishan and his wife boarded the ship and the wind direction at the time, the approximate location of Ice and Fire Island was deduced.

However, his ultimate goal was not for his third brother, but to protect Zhang Cuishan's safety, which can be considered his personal relationship with Zhang Zhenren of Wudang.

Furthermore, he felt that Xie Sange would ultimately have to pay the price for the killings he had committed back then!

"It's okay if it's not!"

Compared to the monks, Xie Xun naturally knew to believe Master Mingchen's explanation.

It can only be said that this is fate!

Skynet is restored, sparse but not leaking.

Xie Xun killed many innocent people throughout his life. It's not that he won't be punished, but that the time hasn't come yet. This is his judgment.

In an instant, the original resentment and anger completely dissipated with a divine will.

"I had already informed my elder brother before I came."

But because of Susu's situation, the eldest brother decided to go to Wudang Mountain first.

Moreover, my elder brother was also killed because of the Five Elements Flag and the Three Wanderers, and he almost died at his hands.

Fortunately, the eldest brother failed to break through the Tina sisters' Sacred Flame Token formation; otherwise, he would have shown no mercy.

"About your sister-in-law?"

"With Zhang Zhenren's longevity, news of Zhang Cuishan will inevitably be impossible to conceal."

When the heroes surround the mountain, Zhang Cuishan and his wife will be in extreme danger. The eldest brother is worried about Susu's safety, so he went to Wudang to investigate.

Chapter 317 A Heaven-Slaying Blade Cuts Down the Dragon

"The Sacred Flame Token? The Zhang family has the Sacred Flame Token?"

Suddenly Xie Xun noticed another message, and his tone was tinged with excitement.

As a disciple of the Zoroastrianism, Xie Xun was most aware of the significance of the Sacred Flame Token and the Zoroastrianism, and the followers had been searching for it for over a hundred years.

After Yang Dingtian disappeared, rumors circulated that:

Whoever finds the Sacred Flame Token can become the new leader of the Zoroastrian Church.

"The Zhang family possesses a Sacred Flame Token, and it's right in my little sister's hands!"

Six sacred fire tokens suddenly appeared in Master Mingchen's sleeve.

Zhang Xiaoshan had always admired this kind of skillful maneuvering.

All six Sacred Flame Tokens were in the hands of Master Mingchen. It was after the Angry Rooster's movement technique appeared that Tina and the others abandoned the Sacred Flame Token martial arts.

What's the point of practicing a martial art that's been countered?

The Zhang family was not lacking in martial arts skills, so Zhang Xiaoshan immediately taught the two women a technique called "Shadow Following Leg." Combined with their previous foundation in Tan Leg, their explosive attacks became even stronger.

And this is only the initial stage.

If they truly become one of their own, Zhang Xiaoshan will not hesitate to pass on the Heavenly Crippled Divine Skill to them.

There are now three sets of Sacred Flame Tokens:

One of them is the original, which was brought to the main church by a Persian merchant more than a hundred years ago. This is why the Zoroastrian church in the Central Plains could not find it no matter how hard they searched.

The two versions were created by the young master after he had studied them once, and the designs were drawn up and then made into the Diamond Sutra version and the Sacred Fire Doctrine version.

The one in my sister's hand has the Diamond Sutra engraved around it to suppress the evil of the Sacred Flame Token's martial arts!

The Sacred Flame Doctrine version was a deal between the Persian Grand Church and the Zhang family. The Grand Church paid a huge price to have the Zhang family re-engrave a Sacred Flame Token in the Sacred Flame Doctrine version, with the same effect as the one in Little Sister's hand.

In terms of value, the two later engraved versions are far more valuable than the originals.

"Diamond Sutra version? Sacred Fire Doctrine version? What does that mean?"

"The Sacred Flame Token is the Sacred Flame Token. Why bring all this nonsense? And what does Third Sister mean by the Sacred Flame Token's martial arts being so sinister?"

Xie Xun was almost confused, his white eyes staring in Ming Chen's direction, completely bewildered.

"The founder of Zoroastrianism, the Old Man of the Mountain, was invincible in Persia throughout his life."

After his death, he left behind two unique skills. One of them is the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth, which is now the sacred skill of the Zoroastrian sect in the Central Plains.

On the Sacred Flame Token, the sacred artifact of the Zoroastrian Church, the young master described it as the pinnacle of unorthodox practices. In particular, the combined techniques used by the three wielding the Sacred Flame Token were no less powerful than the Vajra Subduing Demon Circle of the three predecessors from Persia when the three former Kings of the Precious Tree recently came to the Central Plains.

Even two years ago, Brother Yin was no match for the two Hu women who were beginners, and was subdued in just a few moves.

My younger sister was proficient in Persian martial arts, but even she was no match for the Sacred Flame Token martial arts wielded by the three envoys of the Persian Grand Master, Wind, Cloud, and Moon, and was quickly captured.

"The Sacred Flame Token martial arts? Unorthodox methods? Does this martial art have some flaw?"

"In the Central Plains interpretation, it is demonic art. The deeper one's cultivation level, the easier it is to become possessed by demons and lose control when using it."

Both versions of the Sacred Flame Tokens, enhanced by the Zhang family's special methods, can keep the holders somewhat conscious, preventing them from going berserk when using martial arts. Therefore, the Persian headquarters paid a heavy price to get the Zhang family involved.

"What if we had the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth to assist us?"

"The old man in the mountains killed countless people in the past, and he was considered a demon in the Central Plains. Unless one achieves enlightenment!"

Xie Xun fell silent; such a secret was something he hadn't expected.

"Third brother, I have come to preach to you."
