However, although the Shushan people did not openly fight each other when they attacked Kunlun, in fact, it was almost the same.

The reason behind this is a long-standing one, that is, Shushan has never accepted Kunlun as the leader of the orthodox religion, and has always wanted to defeat him and become the boss themselves.

Kunlun's practice emphasizes the realm of cultivation. They may not be as good at fighting as the Shushan sword immortals at the same level, but the number of high-level cultivators far exceeds that of Shushan. Therefore, in the confrontation between top powers, Shushan has always been at a disadvantage, and this has almost become a headache for the Shushan cultivators.

Now that we have the two sword masters, the Sun and the Moon, it is only natural for them to challenge Kunlun's position as the leader of the righteous path.

In the past, because the Taiyin Sword Master had multiple identities and close connections with Kunlun, and the Taiyang Sword Master obeyed her husband's orders, even if Shushan wanted to overwhelm Kunlun, they could do nothing if the two sword masters disagreed.

This window of opportunity finally arrived when the Master of Taiyin Sword suddenly disappeared and the Master of Taiyang Sword panicked.

Beat him up.

Penglai Fairy Island is far away in the East China Sea, so naturally there is no need to worry about being involved in the dispute between the two giants. In the beginning, everyone even watched and had fun for a while, thinking that if they fought to a loss on both sides, then the position of the leader of the righteous path...could we at Yuqing Temple also take it?

But as the war gradually escalated, the Penglai monks gradually realized that something was wrong.

The two factions fought so fiercely that hatred began to develop.

It is said that Shushan had the upper hand at the beginning, and then Sect Leader Qiongying suddenly took action and defeated the thirteen peak masters of Shushan with his superb fire-based Taoism.

Then, Sun Sword Master Jiang Xiao went into battle. Perhaps because Sect Leader Qiongying was caught off guard, he was wounded by the opponent's sword. After falling, he was snatched back by the Kunlun people.

Now Shushan claims that it was a fair fight and Jiangxiao won, but Kunlun believes that Shushan was fighting a war of attrition and launching sneak attacks, and the two sides are engaged in a fierce verbal battle.

"The reason why they are denouncing each other is because the anger on both sides has accumulated to a certain extent." Shi Liuli said, "But the leaders of the two factions have realized that if they continue to fight, they will inevitably harbor hatred for each other, so they intend to control the intensity."

"So Dongyou, according to you, should we continue to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between the tigers, or should we intervene?" asked the Wanxiang Immortal.

"If we go out to watch the tigers fight, Kunlun and Shushan will both lose." Shi Liuli said calmly, "I know what some elders in the sect are thinking. They think that if the strength of these two sects is greatly weakened, our Penglai can take the opportunity to rise, right?"

"If we allow the conflict to continue, and when things get out of control, we in Penglai will indeed have a chance to become the leader of the Orthodox Church... but the Orthodox Church by then will surely be in a mess."

These words were like a bolt from the blue, instantly waking up the Immortal Wanxiang and the Master Xuandu.

Yes, if Kunlun and Shushan were both defeated, and even Penglai was allowed to take the throne, then the strength of the former two would inevitably decline to a level that would be even inferior to Penglai. Then, to what extent would the Orthodox Church decline?

It would be good enough if you don’t get bullied by the evil cult at that time!

"According to you, you want to mediate between them?" asked the head master of Xuandu.

"It's not just about trying to mediate." Shi Liuli pondered and said, "What do the immortals and the headmaster think of Penglai's position in the orthodox religion?"

"If we only treat Penglai as a vassal, as a follower of the victor, then our current status is basically over."

"But if he can become the key to balance the two factions, Kunlun and Shushan will need to compete to win over each other in order to suppress the other side... so what?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the Immortal Wanxiang and the head of Xuandu were all enlightened.

If they could become the key force that balanced the two factions, it would be great. No matter how weak Penglai was, it was still one of the Three Pure Ones of the orthodox sect. No matter which side it sided with, it would cause great headaches for the other side. But the problem was how to make Kunlun and Shushan admit this?

Kunlun is usually reserved in diplomacy and simply disdains to form an alliance with Penglai; while Shushan has always been extremely reckless and would charge head-on when faced with an indecisive situation. There is no such thing as an alliance.

When the two asked this, Shi Liuli was obviously prepared and said:

"This is a long-term plan that cannot be achieved overnight. We can start by resolving this dispute."

"Although the two factions are fighting each other because they are actually competing for the position of the leader of the Orthodox Church, on the surface they are fighting under the guise of searching for someone. As long as we tell them the whereabouts of my husband, the two factions will naturally have no reason to fight each other."

"Oh, Dongyou knows where Jingyun went?" When the Wanxiang Immortal thought of her ability in divination, he was happy at first, and then he suddenly reacted.

If Dongyou knew Jingyun's whereabouts through magic, then his first reaction would definitely not be to use it to quell the fight in Kunlun and Shushan, but to try to monopolize this Chaos Daluo Jinxian husband, so as to avoid a fight like last time where everyone ended up grabbing a place in the harem, which was embarrassing.

In other words, since she is willing to reveal the secret, it seems that Penglai alone cannot bring Jingyun back.

"Where is Jingyun?" asked the Wanxiang Immortal solemnly.

Shi Liuli looked solemn and pointed upwards.

In the sky? No, it should be outside the sky.

Jing Yun is a Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal who can swim freely in the Chaos Sky River without fear of the demons, so his current position is outside the sky?

It's hard! Outside the celestial sphere, the environment is extremely bad, demons are rampant, and it is difficult for only immortals to enter. How can we find it?

"I used this to tell the divination. The hexagram is extremely obscure, but I can tell three things." Shi Liuli continued, "First, my husband is not in the cultivation world, but outside the celestial sphere."

"Secondly, the husband did not leave on purpose, and the hexagram indicates that he will suffer harm."

"Third, the hexagram finally hints at a great evil. The things outside the celestial sphere that are of great evil must be related to the celestial demon."

It is not difficult to guess his identity since he is related to the Heavenly Demon. In the past, Jiang Li secretly entered the East China Sea as the Heavenly Demon, and everyone witnessed it with their own eyes.

Going to the Chaos River to fight the demon... just thinking about it makes the Wanxiang Immortal and Xuandu Sect Master feel troubled. No wonder Shi Liuli said he wanted to find Kunlun Shu Mountain, because without gathering the power of all the immortals from the three sects, how could they dare to leave the celestial ball?

To put it extremely, below the Golden Immortal level, even if they are traveling together, they may be more of a burden than a helper!

"Dongyou." Wanxiang Immortal sighed and said, "My Penglai is weak, it's really hard for you."

If the number of high-level cultivators and even immortals in Penglai can compete with Kunlun, then why would Shi Liuli, who has the information advantage, need to share this matter with Kunlun and Shushan? He can just gather the immortals in the sect and rescue Jingyun.

To put it bluntly, Xu Yinglian relies on her family clan, An Zhisu relies on the Sun Sword, but Shi Liuli has no one to rely on. Although the magic she practices is extraordinary, it still needs to be combined with her wisdom to be able to barely keep up with other competitors in the fight for her husband.

In this world of cultivation, strength is ultimately what matters.

Shi Liuli quickly humbled himself and tried to comfort the Immortal Master, but he was secretly calculating in his heart.

As soon as the husband disappeared, An Zhisu and Xu Yinglian had a real fight. It can be seen that the "husband sharing" plan in the past was just a stopgap measure after all.

If there is true love in this world, who would be willing to share their husband with others? It's just that they have their husbands to suppress them and don't want to express their resentment.

Perhaps this time, rescuing my husband, is the best time to confront him and ask him to make the final decision.
