Led by that man, Chen Xiao and the other two entered a hall.
Although it is built with bamboo, the hall is tall and spacious, and can accommodate more than 30 people for meetings without feeling crowded.
At this time, there were many people gathered around a table in the inner part. Jing Hui looked annoyed and was suppressing the anger surging in her chest.
Seeing that his face looked very bad, the people around him could feel the low pressure, but they still had to bite the bullet and ask him: "Fellow Daoist Jinghui, we have been waiting for several days, and no one has entered the encirclement. Are you sure there is really an evil cultivator following you with bad intentions?"
Although Jing Hui had a bad temper, he was well-mannered. No matter how angry he was with his own people, he would never vent it on others.
He said patiently, "I'm sure! Even if he was willing to self-destruct, he would still perform the blood pollution technique. It's definitely not something a casual cultivator would have the guts and brains to do. There must be someone behind this. If no one backed him up, he wouldn't have the confidence and ruthless determination..."
Jinghui was explaining to someone when he heard someone shouting, "Senior Brother Jinghui, look who's here." He was unhappy when he was interrupted and blamed his fellow brother for shouting.
These days, Jing Hui has gathered a lot of Buddhist disciples in order to repay the evil cultivators who have been chasing him for some time.
Jin Chanzong holds a leading position among Buddhist practitioners. When he came forward and called out, Buddhist practitioners near the Luochen gathering point responded one after another. Recently, some Buddhist practitioners who heard the news from even farther places came to join.
Jinghui had to meet several new faces every day, and she had long been a little impatient with these social meetings. However, as the initiator, in order not to disappoint these people, she could not avoid these red tapes.
Jing Hui's forced smile turned into genuine surprise when he turned around and saw the person next to his junior brother. "Brother Chen, Liu Lang, and Brother Xi! How did you get here so quickly!" As he spoke, he took the initiative to walk over.
This enthusiastic attitude made the people who were just suffering from low pressure feel relieved, and they turned their heads curiously to look at the newcomers. Who are these three people? It was the first time to see Jing Hui so enthusiastic.
Xi Yunting's attitude was still cold and indifferent, and he just nodded slightly to Jing Hui as a greeting. Liu Lang greeted her respectfully, and only Chen Xiao smiled and said to Jing Hui, "Big brother borrowed a red cloud roc, and we rode it to rush here. How about it, brother Jing, we are not too late, right?"
Jing Hui laughed happily: "You actually thought of borrowing the Red Cloud Peng to travel, you are really resourceful! This large Peng bird is wild and difficult to tame. I guess you are borrowing the soul beast from the immortal cultivators, right?"
Chen Xiao smiled and said, "Brother Jing guessed it right. He indeed borrowed it from a spiritual practitioner." Chen Xiao didn't want to say more about this matter, so he asked if their arrival disturbed their conversation.
Jing Hui waved her hands, sighed, and scratched her head in annoyance: "Nothing to bother you, there has been no progress so far. The trap has been set, but after waiting for several days, no evil cultivator has been caught."
Chen Xiao and Xi Yunting looked at each other, Xi Yunting nodded gently, and Chen Xiao turned to Jing Hui and said, "Brother Jing, please be patient. I think the evil cultivator is probably nearby. The reason why he hasn't taken any action yet is because he is waiting for someone."
Jing Hui was shocked. "They have already arrived. What's your evidence? You said they were waiting for someone. Who are they waiting for?"
He was getting impatient waiting. Seeing this, the junior fellow said, "Brother, Fellow Daoist Chen and his friends are guests from afar. Even if they want to talk, they should sit down."
Jing Hui calmed himself down and smiled: "I was impatient, don't blame me." He then turned around and arranged for someone to serve tea and dispersed the people who gathered around, leaving only a few.
Chen Xiao was thirsty after all the traveling. When the teacup was brought up, he picked it up and blew on it before drinking. Seeing this, Jing Hui sent someone to bring him some green fruits to quench his thirst.
Chen Xiao thanked him and stuffed a few into the glasses for Liu Lang who was sitting on the side. Jing Hui over there had already started talking to Xi Yunting.
Jing Hui said, "It's a relief that you guys got here so quickly. I thought it would take at least a month or two before I could see you again. By the way, did you kill the evil cultivator who chased us and made Chen Xiao feel uncomfortable? I didn't meet any particularly powerful characters after that."
Xi Yunting's face darkened slightly, and his eyebrows knitted together. He said, "When I arrived at Yinjiantan, only Brother Xiao was there." He exerted force with his palms, and he could even hear the armrests groaning under the heavy weight. "If I were to meet that Huaiyin Patriarch in person, I would fight him to the death!"
Jing Hui was shocked: "What? The one chasing after us was actually Patriarch Huaiyin himself?"
Chen Xiao quenched his thirst, put down his teacup and said seriously: "Yes, it is the Huaiyin Patriarch."
A Buddhist cultivator sitting next to him, who was wearing a dark green monk's robe and a wide belt around his waist, said in surprise, "Is it really the Huaiyin Patriarch? It is said that he has a high level of cultivation. Although he is in the Nascent Soul stage, he has no rivals even in the Out-of-Body stage. Even some people in the Spirit Severing stage have tasted defeat when they met him."
Chen Xiao and Liu Lang looked at each other. They had no idea about these situations before. After all, Taizhen gathering point was a small place and the information was not that well-informed.
Jing Hui said in disbelief, "You are exaggerating, right? He is just an evil cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage. Even if you are exaggerating, there is no need to say that he can defeat a cultivator at the Spirit Severing stage."
Liu Lang said solemnly: "Master Jinghui, this is most likely not a rumor. This time, the teacher suffered a great loss at the hands of the Huaiyin Patriarch and narrowly escaped death."
After that, he recounted in detail what happened on behalf of Chen Xiao.
Jing Hui had to believe it when she learned that the jade talisman Chen Xiao used to save his life was shattered with one blow, and that he had actually cut off his right arm and jumped into the Yinjiantan before surviving. That was the Yinjiantan, and who would dare to jump in if they were not determined to die!
Chen Xiao said: "The flesh limbs transformed by Huaiyin Patriarch's hands are extremely hard and powerful. His only weakness is that he moves very slowly. Even when fighting, he cannot move at all because he needs to stabilize his body. I think the most urgent thing is to do something based on these, so that we can deal with Huaiyin Patriarch with twice the result with half the effort."
The monk in dark green robes was half-believing and half-doubting: "Will Patriarch Huaiyin really come? This place is close to the Luochen gathering point. If it is an ordinary evil cultivator, it won't matter. But if Huaiyin clearly wants to fight us here, the guards of the Luochen gathering point will definitely not sit idly by."
The trap they set was just to catch the evil cultivators who were attracted by the blood pollution technique.
When evil cultivators encounter blood contamination, it is like passers-by seeing ownerless money on the street, few people will not pick it up. Even if they have nothing to do with this matter, they will follow out of curiosity to see if they can fish in troubled waters and get a bargain.
Most of the Buddhist disciples were used to training in Shenzhou Atlas instead of in the various heavenly worlds, because they trained by saving the evil cultivators and evil spirits. In addition, the Yin spirits gathered after the spiritual cultivators died were also a very scarce resource for the Buddhists.
Why is it that even after Jinghui’s call has passed, there is still a steady stream of Buddhist disciples from afar coming? It is just to take advantage of this opportunity to kill a few evil practitioners to practice their skills.
But if it was Patriarch Huaiyin, an evil Nascent Soul cultivator who was rumored to be quite difficult to deal with, he would not have any confidence that this makeshift group could deal with him.
Xi Yunting said: "Patriarch Huaiyin should come. He lost three disciples this time and lost all face. In order to restore his dignity, he will definitely kill the enemy who killed his disciples, even if it means causing a big disturbance at the Luochen gathering point. I am afraid he will not hesitate."
Chen Xiao nodded and said, "Maybe he will do this on purpose. If he can capture the Luochen gathering point and cause heavy losses to the righteous cultivators, not only will he regain his lost face, but he will also gain more reputation among the evil cultivators."
Jing Hui looked at Chen Xiao with a heavy face. He didn't know whether Chen Xiao was exaggerating or not, but if Huaiyin Patriarch really had such a plan, it would no longer be their own business. Luo Chen's garrison and his forces would inevitably be involved.
The man in the dark green monk's robe next to him fidgeted and twisted his body uncomfortably, then said hesitantly, "Should we inform the guard?"
Jing Hui came back to her senses, turned around and nodded at him, "This is as it should be. Also, you should make some arrangements and discuss how to adjust the arrangements for Patriarch Huaiyin. You guys go by yourselves, I have something else to do here."
After everyone else had left, Jing Hui said seriously, "If Patriarch Huaiyin really comes, there will be a fierce battle, but I don't know how many people will come."
Xi Yunting said calmly, "Brother Xiao told me that another Jindan disciple under Huaiyin escaped. Huaiyin Patriarch has a speed deficiency, so he should be the one arranging this matter. All the evil cultivators who have accepted the reward from Huaiyin should come."
Not only will they come, but there will probably be quite a few evil practitioners and evil ways coming. I didn't mention this just now because I was afraid that if too many people knew the inside story, it would cause people to be uneasy.
Jing Hui said worriedly: "If that's the case, we don't have enough people. Should we go back to Luochen Great Heaven Realm immediately and gather some people?"
Although there are many Luochen people active in Shenzhou Tulu, they are of varying quality. It would be better to call some elite disciples from the sect directly to cooperate tacitly.
Xi Yunting shook his head: "With Zhenshou and Zhishitang here, they won't be happy for us to take over their duties. Let's wait and see what happens."
Jing Hui sighed: "It can only be like this."
Xi Yunting suddenly said solemnly: "Fellow Daoist Jinghui, I have a favor to ask of you."
It was the first time Jing Hui saw Xi Yunting so serious. She was stunned: "Tell me what you want. As long as I can do it, I will never refuse."
Xi Yunting stood up and said, "I would like to ask you to lend a hand and heal Brother Xiao's broken arm."
Jing Hui smiled, patted his chest and said, "I thought it was nothing. I am very skilled in healing spells and I will definitely be able to help Brother Chen recover as before."
It turned out that he was too confident in what he said, and Jing Hui was slapped in the face within half a day. He couldn't even heal Chen Xiao's broken arm!
"How is this possible?" Jing Hui said in disbelief, "My healing spell doesn't work!"
Looking at the smooth severed limb, Chen Xiao could only smile bitterly. Liu Lang was still not giving up, and asked, "Is it because the wound has completely healed? Can we try to cut it again to see if a new limb can be grown again?"
