Chapter 70: The three divine winds descended from the sky and found the Tongtian Sect...

When the three found Tongtian Sect Master, he was training his troops.

In fact, it is not accurate to say that he was training soldiers. To be precise, he was holding a sword and teaching everyone swordsmanship.

The actual training was done by Fu Shuang. The training guidelines were formulated by Fu Li based on the school's military training, emphasizing strict compliance with orders.

Originally, Tongtian Patriarch was prepared to deploy the troops, but after watching Fushuang's training, he felt that as long as these trained soldiers were trained to the extreme in this way, they would be able to master any formation quickly, so he let her do it first.

After all, strict compliance with orders is the basis of all military formations.

The training ground was a clearing in the bamboo forest. The breeze was rustling, the bamboo leaves were rustling, and Tongtian Sect Leader was wearing a green robe and holding a long sword. As he danced, the sword tip was as sharp as frost, but his posture seemed to be riding the wind.

But if you look closely, you will find that the sword moves he teaches are extremely simple. They are all basic such as piercing, stabbing, poking and lifting, without any fancy moves.

The reason why the onlookers thought it was beautiful was because his swordsmanship had reached perfection, and his every move was in accordance with the laws of nature. Naturally, there was a beauty that matched the rhythm of heaven and earth.

Looking across from the leader, at the group of soldiers led by Fu Shuang, they were clearly copying the leader's moves, each one identical to the leader's, yet they seemed rigid and devoid of any aesthetic appeal.

After finishing a set of sword techniques, Tongtian Sect Leader held his breath and sheathed his sword. The Qingping Sword moved as he wished, and with a "clang" sound, it flew out of his hand and returned to the sheath.

The Patriarch Tongtian stood with his hands hanging down, looking as graceful as an immortal.

After the other men gradually withdrew, the leader spoke, "You've all memorized the sword moves. All that remains is to practice. Practice makes perfect, then learn from the techniques. Don't rush. Once you've mastered the art, I'll teach you the sword formations. That's the true way to conquer the world."

"only."

Led by Fu Shuang, everyone responded in unison. The leader asked her to continue practicing with everyone, and walked towards where the three people were staying.

"Greetings, Immortal." Fu Li bowed with a smile first, followed by Ji Meng and Kong Xuan, who also called him "Imperial Master".

"No need to be so polite." The leader smiled and waved his hand, pointing to the right front. "There's a stone table over there. Let's go sit over there."

The four of them strolled away through the thick mat of dead grass and fallen leaves. The leader smiled at Ji Meng and said, "Ever since Gong Gong knocked down Mount Buzhou, you, the great demon, have been hiding in the abyss. Are you finally willing to come out?"

Ji Meng was a little embarrassed. "Master Shangqing, please don't tease me. Didn't I come out? I just didn't dare. It was only when King Yu was controlling the flood that I came out to help under an assumed name, and that's when Heaven was more lenient with me. If it weren't for my disciple's great deed this time, I don't know how long I would have to wait."

"Oh?" The leader raised his thick eyebrows, raised his left hand and calculated briefly, then said with appreciation, "My little disciple, you did a good job."

Fu Li said politely, "It's just an idea so far. When it's actually implemented, I don't know how successful it will be. Master, please don't praise me yet. If I fail, I won't be ashamed to face you."

The leader said with a smile, "You are too embarrassed to face me? Don't think I don't know. You have been with Gongming for many years. You haven't learned anything else, but you have learned his thick skin tenfold."

Fu Li pretended to be embarrassed and said angrily, "Oh, Grandmaster, the new disciple is still here. Please give this disciple some face."

Everyone burst into laughter, even Kong Xuan couldn't help laughing.

As they chatted, they arrived in front of the stone table. The stone table was a perfect circle, surrounded by five stone benches. The stone benches were two round surfaces, the upper one larger than the lower one, with three hollow legs in the middle, the lines were graceful and powerful.

The four of them sat around the table. Fu Li hurriedly took out the porcelain cups and sweet dew. Kong Xuan was also very conscious and stood up to serve the cups to everyone.

The leader watched silently for a moment. After Kong Xuan sat down, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and said, "I don't need to calculate or ask. Just looking at your behavior, you must have become a disciple of Duobao, right?"

If you tell this to others, no one may believe it, but among all the second-generation disciples of the three religions, the one who looks most like Yuanshi Tianzun is actually the eldest disciple of the Jiejiao, Duobao Zhenren.

During the years when Duobao Zhenren was at his most upright, even his teacher Tongtian Jiaozhu was frightened when they saw him.

It’s nothing, the visual effect is too strong.

Kong Xuan smiled slightly upon hearing this, and stood up to salute, his posture relaxed but not disorderly, his tone gentle but not frivolous: "Grandmaster is wise, and my master is none other than Master Duobao."

"Alright, alright, sit down now." Tongtian Patriarch subconsciously had a headache and quickly waved his hand to interrupt him. "We in Jiejiao are not without etiquette, but we don't have to observe etiquette everywhere. That thing is for outsiders to see, and you also put on airs in front of your own people. If you are not tired, I am tired."

Kong Xuan just smiled, neither refuting nor agreeing.

Fu Li quickly tried to smooth things over: "Master is right. We Jiejiao disciples must be both serious and lively. To put it bluntly, we must follow our hearts."

Tongtian Patriarch nodded with a smile and gave her an appreciative look.

Fu Li gave him a flattering smile and spoke up for Kong Xuan, "Every living being in this world has different hearts and minds. For Junior Brother Kong Xuan, being dignified and respectful is his true nature. As long as you don't act against your true nature, aren't you still following the teachings of your Grandmaster?"

Kong Xuan glanced at her gratefully. Tongtian Sect Master chuckled and immediately sent them away: "Didn't you two say you were going to control the flood? Then hurry up and leave. Don't delay me from catching up with my new disciple."

Although he is a new disciple, he is also an old acquaintance.

Because of Kong Xuan's special status, Tongtian Patriarch had noticed him long ago. However, because he was unwilling to reveal his identity, he pretended not to know and treated him as an ordinary creature who came to attend his class.

Fu Li and Ji Meng stood up with a smile, said goodbye, and went straight to the Ge tribe.

The two of them were walking on the same cloud, and on the way Fu Li gave her a brief introduction to the situation of the tribe.

"According to Ge, there are three tribes in the surrounding area that are related to theirs by marriage. Since Shu is mountainous and sparsely populated, there are four tribes in total, occupying a considerable amount of territory.

These four tribes share a major water vein that runs through them. In addition to the tributaries of this major water vein, the Ge tribe and the other Wu tribe also have tributaries of another major water vein passing through them.

They have tried some control measures themselves, but they are ineffective, and with the constant disturbance of demonic beasts, not only are they ineffective, but sometimes even counterproductive.”

Ji Meng listened carefully and kept thinking in his mind. When he arrived at the destination, he already had some idea in his mind.

Just as the two were about to descend from the clouds, they suddenly heard the sound of fighting below.

Fu Li was horrified and hurriedly pushed aside the clouds to look down. He saw two groups of people below, some wrapped in animal skins, some bare-chested, holding weapons made of wood or bones, and a small number of bronze weapons, fighting in a group.

The primitiveness of the equipment does not affect the bloodiness of the war at all.

Even standing in the clouds, it was obvious that one of them was stronger and taller.

That was Ge's tribe. Because they had had enough food in recent years and no shortage of salt recently, they had an advantage in both size and strength.

But although the opponent was at a disadvantage, their fighting spirit seemed to be even stronger. They fought as if they didn't care about their lives. If their weapons were broken, they would just use them. If their hands were cut off, they would bite them with their teeth. They were willing to risk their lives.

Ji Meng asked, "Do you need me to separate them?"

Fu Li hurriedly said, "Separate quickly, separate quickly, wait for me to go down and ask what's going on."

Ji Meng took a deep breath, his cheeks puffed up, like a big hamster with a full crop.

After a moment, she blew a breath downwards. A hurricane of wind instantly struck, blowing both groups of people all over the place, making it impossible for them to open their eyes.

“What a strong wind! What a strong wind!”

"Ouch, my eyes are blinded!"

"Chief, Chief, where are you?"

"Get down, everyone get down!"

“…………”

There was a lot of noise and chaos. Both sides of the fight had no time to care about anything else because of the strong wind, and they only thought about saving their lives.

After the strong wind passed, Fu Li and Ji Meng descended from the clouds and found Ge among the staggering crowd. They helped him up and asked, "What happened? Who are they? Why did you start fighting?"

Hearing her voice, the soldiers of the Ge tribe were very excited and cheered in unison: "The young lady is back, the young lady is back!"

Ge quickly plucked the weeds from his head, spat out the sand in his mouth twice, looked up in surprise and joy, grinned and said, "Sister, it really is you!"

She raised the bronze spear in her hand and shouted, "Everyone, move over here! Our new leader has returned! Come and meet him!"

Just as Fu Li was stunned, everyone gathered around as if they had discussed it beforehand, holding up their weapons and shouting, "Greetings to the new leader! Please lead the warriors of the tribe and drive out these shameless thieves!"

The people of the hostile tribe were confused and panicked, and hurriedly approached their leader: "Chief, this..."

The tribes in Shu are generally named after their leaders, and their names will change as the leaders change.

The leader of the invading tribe was called "Wu", and it was said that she was born under a Wutong tree.

Wu raised his hand to stop his men from speaking, and looked at the two newcomers with a wary look on his face.

The moment the strong wind died down, the two men descended from the sky. The strong wind was definitely related to them. She wasn't sure if the other party could only release the divine wind once, or if it could be released indefinitely.

If it's the latter...

Wu's heart sank, and he began to regret his decision to bring people here to steal the salt.

In fact, she should have guessed it long ago. How could ordinary people make refined salt that is as pure as snow and as fine as sand?

It's just that the two tribes have always been on good terms, and every two or three years they would get together for a group marriage. According to the Central Plains people, they are in-law tribes.

Because of their close relationship, Wu was particularly angry that Ge, despite her repeated pleas, refused to sell salt to their tribe. When her subordinates instigated her, she brought her men to rob the salt.

The enemy's reinforcements arrived, and her hot-blooded mind finally cleared up.

Fu Li quickly found out the situation and learned that Ge was not unwilling to sell the salt, but wanted to wait for her to come back before taking any action. Then she understood what was going on.

but……

"What's going on with the new leader you mentioned?"

Ge laughed: "Sister, have you forgotten? Didn't I tell you before you left that I would give you a surprise when you came back?"

"Is this the surprise you were talking about?" Fu Li didn't know what to say.

"Yeah." Ge nodded vigorously.

Still "hmm"?

"Sister Ge, I just want to help everyone. I don't mean to take your place. Please don't misunderstand me."

"I didn't misunderstand." Ge's expression was even more sincere than hers. "I truly believe that you are more capable than I am. If I hand the tribe over to you, it will develop better than if I hand it over to you, and everyone can live a better life."

She looked around and raised her voice, "Besides, this is what everyone wants. Don't you agree?"

"yes!"

"yes!"

"yes!"

“…………”

The crowd raised their weapons and shouted, their voices shaking the wild.
