Chapter 328 Bottom-line thinking, who will I go with?

When he heard Zheng Fa shout out the word Chenjun, the face of the Blood River Patriarch showed confusion again. He looked at Zheng Fa, wondering: No, how come this guy knows everything?

Looking at his expression, Zheng Fa and the others didn't even need to listen to his answer.

Zheng Fa guessed Chen Jun, but it was just because of a doubt in his heart: no matter how powerful the Great Freedom Demon Sect is, or how long it has been forbearing, the incarnation of a god is always valuable.

Didn’t you see that after Tai Shang Dao had been struggling for a while, Jiang Chengkong showed up?

When Jiang Chengkong sent a message saying that several gods had gathered in Chen County, Zheng Fa couldn't figure it out - what was there in that place that was worthy of so many gods staying there?

"So, those gods of the Great Freedom Demon Sect are in Chen County to guide the Great Freedom Demon Ancestor?"

Uncle Pang's voice came, it was very low and deep, and very unlike his usual voice.

Zheng Fa looked towards him and saw that his slightly round face was a little pale, and his eyes were staring at the Blood River Ancestor, as if seeking confirmation.

“Heh.” Perhaps because he saw his expression was really horrified, the Blood River Patriarch laughed and did not deny it. He pointed at the “Cooperation Agreement” that Zheng Fa took out and said, “Saint Ancestor Linchen… these things of yours are meaningless.”

Zheng Fa understood what this person was thinking: Is Zheng Fa's threat effective?

efficient.

The Demon Sect is indeed not a good place, and the Great Free Demon Ancestor is not a good-tempered person.

But no matter how good your Jiushan Sect is, what’s the use if it’s gone?

As if seeing that he understood what he meant, the Blood River Patriarch said quietly: "Do you think the Holy Ancestor cares about our loyalty? He doesn't care. He just needs to make us afraid."

“…”

"Over the years, the Holy Ancestor has been in deep sleep, so we are naturally less restrained..."

Zheng Fa suddenly thought of Lin Bufan.

The fact that Lin Bufan was able to survive that day was naturally due to the Blood-Burning Pill given to him by his uncle.

But on the other hand, the power displayed by the curse of the Great Free Demon Ancestor was a little weaker.

Now listening to the words of the Blood River Ancestor, I am afraid it is related to the state of the Great Freedom Demon Ancestor.

He looked at the Blood River Patriarch and saw that his expression was almost rogue-like and frank: "You said I thought about leaving the Holy Church. I did think about it..."

“Everyone has thought about it.”

"Who dares to cross?"

Uncle Pang couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you dare?"

"The great power of our demon sect monks comes from the Holy Ancestor, and will eventually return to the Holy Ancestor. The Holy Ancestor has the power to decide life and death over us."

“…”

Zheng Fa inexplicably thought of the two strange symbols in Lin Bufan's blood.

The talismans used by the Jiushan Sect today were developed using Lin Bufan's blood.

The reason why the talisman is so magical is naturally not because Lin Bufan is so strong - he is just a Qi practitioner.

What makes him strong is the blood he inherited from the Great and Free Demon Ancestor, and the strange symbols in that blood.

It is clear that what the Blood River Ancestor said about his great power coming from the Holy Ancestor does make sense.

"Even if I agree to you, how many days of good life can I have?"

The Blood River Patriarch finally asked this question, which made it difficult for Zheng Fa and the others to answer.

After all, the Great Free Demon Ancestor is really going to come to the world... If he goes to the Nine Mountains Realm, he must be schizophrenic and his brain must be split apart.

Zheng Fa asked a few more questions.

However, the Blood River Patriarch did not seem to be willing to cooperate. The question just now was common sense, and there was nothing much in what he said.

In fact, after all that conversation, Zheng Fa and the others didn't get much useful information from him.

Zheng Fa stopped trying to persuade the Blood River Patriarch and looked at Senior Sister Zhang beside him.

Senior Sister Zhang understood what he meant, and she raised the Mountain and River Seal in her hand. The Mountain and River True Shape Talisman flew out and landed on the sword body of the Blood River Ancestor's flying sword, faintly forming a golden net that trapped him inside and made him unable to move.

"you!"

"Disciples often come to this medicine garden. I'm afraid that they will disturb your meditation. I'd better ask you to come to my place as a guest."

Senior Sister Zhang smiled.

She naturally understood Zheng Fa's look:

It would certainly not be a good idea to release the Blood River Ancestor - after all, he is a deity, and if he were to let him go, it might increase the strength of the Great Freedom Demon Sect.

More importantly, I don't know if the Blood River Ancestor has discovered any of the Nine Mountains' secrets in the Nine Mountains...

No one knows why the Great Demon Ancestor can't forget Zheng Fa.

Maybe the Blood River Patriarch revealed some details when he returned, which made the Great Free Demon Ancestor see through the Nine Mountain Realm's true colors, or even think that Zheng Fa was a talent...

This is too much fun.

But it would not work if we just left the flying sword here - there were often disciples coming to the medicine garden, for example, Master Qian would bring his disciples to do experiments, and if Master Xuehe wanted to seduce and lure the disciples of Jiushan, that would be another problem.

The best way, naturally, is for Zheng Fa and Senior Sister Zhang to suppress him, keep him by their side, and prevent him from causing trouble.

In other words, it would be best if Senior Sister Zhang took action.

Because even though the Sun and Moon Bell is more powerful in the Nine Mountains Realm, it also has more uses - it is also used to transform heavenly energy, and cannot leave the medicine garden for long.

Senior Sister Zhang understood Zheng Fa's thoughts naturally without him saying anything, and directly suppressed the Blood River Ancestor.

Everyone walked back with heavy hearts. Along the way, many disciples looked at the master and the elders and saluted respectfully, but at this moment, even Zheng Fa paid no attention to these disciples.

The group came to Zheng Fa's yard on Wanxian Island tacitly.

The silence in the lobby lasted for a long time.

After a long while, Uncle Pang looked at Zheng Fa and said, "Master, what do you think?"

He seldom addressed Zheng Fa as the headmaster, but at this moment, he felt heavy in his heart and unconsciously became serious when he used this title.

"First, send a message to Master Chengkong and inform the Five Sects of the Demon Ancestor's coming to the world."

Zheng Fa's words were natural.

Uncle Pang also nodded and said, "I'm afraid they are more afraid of the arrival of the Great Free Demon Ancestor than we are."

"What about us?" Senior Sister Zhang took over.

Zheng Fa stopped talking. He turned around and looked at his senior sister, master, and two uncles. After a long while, he spoke: "Nine Mountain Sect, naturally, the farther we can avoid it, the better."

"But I can't."

The old man frowned and said, "You are the head of Jiushan Sect, how can you separate them?"

"But the Great Free Demon Ancestor probably cares about me. Master Chengkong once said that the Nine Mountains Realm cannot stop the truly powerful."

"The Great Free Demon Ancestor should be one of them."

Zheng Fa shook his head and smiled, not seeming too panicked.

To be honest, he was indeed a little heavy-hearted just now, but now he was much more relaxed. When he spoke, he even looked brighter than Uncle Pang and the others.

“……” The old man’s face was ten times gloomier than his, but he had to admit that Zheng Fa was right.

What was the Nine Mountains Sect in the eyes of the Great Free Demon Ancestor? If there was anyone in the Nine Mountains Sect that the Demon Ancestor coveted, it would probably be Zheng Fa.

Others, such as himself, are very self-aware: perhaps a person like the Demon Ancestor is troublesome to even look at.

"Do you want us to abandon a junior like you?" Uncle Pang said in a sullen tone. He raised his eyes and looked at Zheng Fa: "Let's not talk about anything else. If we leave the Nine Mountains Realm, where can our Nine Mountains Sect go now?"

Zheng Fa was also speechless.

His meaning was very clear, he hoped that the disciples of Jiushan Sect would find another way to make a living - it was not because his spirit of dedication was too strong, but most of the disciples were of little use in this kind of fight.

Zheng Fa has always been a pessimistic person and likes to make preparations for the worst.

Now, the worst case scenario is naturally that the Demon Ancestor comes to kill Zheng Fa, breaks the barrier of the Nine Mountains Realm, and kills him.

If so, Zheng Fa also hopes that the disciples of Jiushan can inherit some of his ideas and concepts...

But Uncle Pang is also right.

The Jiushan Sect has already lost its headquarters. If it leaves the Jiushan Realm, what difference will it make from a dead sect? Seeing that he was silent, the old man laughed and suddenly patted his shoulder.

"Master?"

"I already knew that among the three disciples, you are the one who is most likely to cause trouble."

“…”

"But I, Yuan, have never given up on my disciples."

Zheng Fa stopped talking. Uncle Pang at the side curled his lips and muttered, "This is how you act as a master."

After hearing this, Zheng Fa also felt that it was inappropriate to evacuate most of the people in the sect from the Nine Mountains Realm.

But he felt that the idea of ​​leaving a root for the Jiushan Sect was still feasible.

"Master, I was thinking, if most of the disciples can't leave, why not secretly arrange for some elite disciples to leave?"

The old man, Uncle Pang and others looked at each other and nodded.

It is one thing that they are unwilling to leave, but on the other hand, they also want to leave a legacy for the Jiushan Sect.

"Elite disciples? My disciple... Just Qian Yuan. I'll think about the others later."

Uncle Pang thought about it and chose a candidate.

It can be seen that during this period of time, the impression of Zhou Qianyuan in his heart has become better and better, probably because he has really inherited the true teachings of Uncle Pang.

Now the first person I think of is him.

"My disciple... isn't that you?"

The old man looked at Zheng Fa, speechless.

However, Master Huang’s expression was even more speechless—she looked at Master Zhang, then at Zheng Fa, opened her mouth, and then closed it, looking as if she didn’t want to talk.

Zheng Fa turned his head and looked at Senior Sister Zhang beside him.

He didn't say anything either.

The main thing is that I don’t dare to say it...Senior Sister Zhang’s eyes seem to suggest that you just try to speak up.

He thought for a moment and said, "Choose some disciples with lower cultivation levels, and I'll ask Fairy Xiao for protection. It may still be feasible."

"Low cultivation... but good grades?"

Senior Sister Zhang nodded.

"Yes, the essence of our Nine Mountains Realm's inheritance lies in this knowledge system. Cultivation is not that important. These disciples are not conspicuous, but can inherit our Nine Mountains' philosophy."

The elders were all in deep thought, seemingly thinking about which one would be more suitable.

Zheng Fa was also calculating in his mind. Zhou Qianyuan was one of them. He had the talisman philosophy of Uncle Pang, himself, and even Senior Sister Zhang. Master Qian could also be considered one. Although his cultivation was not high, he was considered the best in agronomy in Jiushan Sect. As for the others, he needed to be considered carefully.

However, there is one person that Zheng Fa must add to the list—his own sister.

Zheng Fa wanted to let some of his disciples leave, but actually, it was more out of selfish motives...

After a discussion among the group, Zheng Fa took out a communication talisman and wrote down the news that the Great Freedom Demon Ancestor was about to come to the world.

The communication talisman flashed and flew out of the Nine Mountains Realm, passing through mountains and water, and flew towards Master Chengkong.

Master Chengkong was sitting on a green cloud at this time, gazing into the distance in the direction of Chenjun with a look of confusion and uneasiness.

Standing next to him was Master Tongming, whose expression was also helpless: he had been standing here with Master Chengkong for half a month.

"Your Excellency...what secrets does Chen County have?"

"How should I know?"

Master Chengkong muttered softly, without even looking at Master Tongming, but staring straight ahead.

The sky ahead was dyed blood red. Under the red clouds, the grass and trees were dry, and there were no birds or animals.

"Did you hear that?"

Master Chengkong suddenly asked.

"Listen?" Master Tongming tilted his head, listened carefully, and finally shook his head: "I can't hear anything."

"I can't hear anything either." Unexpectedly, Master Chengkong's expression became even uglier. "We are both at the level of Spiritualization... We can't hear anything. Isn't that weird?"

Master Tongming opened his mouth and looked at Chen Jun, with a trace of disbelief on his face: "Master, are you saying... that everyone is dead?"

"I just know it's not a good thing." Master Chengkong said softly, "At least three gods have gathered in this small Chen County... Tell me, why don't they come to fight the Hundred Immortals Alliance?"

“…”

Does our Hundred Immortals Alliance deserve this?

But Master Tongming immediately understood what Master Chengkong meant:

With these gods, the Great Freedom Demon Cult would have been able to destroy the Hundred Immortals Alliance long ago, and even Master Chengkong would not be able to stop them.

But they didn't make a move...

This only shows that they have more important things to do.

The more important this matter is to the Great Freedom Demon Sect, the more dangerous it is to the Supreme Dao.

"Then... shall we go into Chen County to investigate?"

"What if it's a trap?"

Master Chengkong rolled his eyes at him, as if he thought he was stupid.

“…”

Master Tongming was also at a loss. After all, there was too little information about Chen County and they didn't know what to do.

But... I don't dare to leave, and I don't dare to go in.

How long do I have to stand there?

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Just as the two were hesitating, Zheng Fa's communication talisman flew over and fell into the hands of Master Cheng Kong.

When Master Chengkong probed his spiritual consciousness into the communication talisman, his expression changed extremely quickly - first joy, then surprise, and finally fear.

"Master?"

Master Tongming saw him like this and couldn't help but ask.

"Zheng Fa sent a letter saying that he had found out what the Great Freedom Demon Cult was doing in Chen County..."

"Him?" Master Tongming's eyes widened, as if he couldn't understand. "He is thousands of miles away, how can he know?"

Master Chengkong didn't say anything either.

He was also very puzzled - this kind of thing should be the secret of the Great Freedom Demon Sect, how did Zheng Fa figure it out so easily? Then he thought about how he had been standing here for half a month...

Suddenly, he felt a little aggrieved.

"What is the Great Freedom Demon Sect doing in Chen County?"

Master Tongming asked again.

“To guide the Great Free Demon Ancestor…”

"!!!"

Master Tongming could no longer sit still. He looked at Chen Jun and said in a trembling voice, "Great Freedom... Demon Ancestor?"

Master Chengkong had no time to pay attention to him. Seven-colored light surged from his body, forcing Master Tongming to not dare to look directly at him.

When he opened his eyes again, the Master Chengkong in front of him had changed his appearance - his eyes were golden, he was wearing a golden Taoist robe, and there was a golden cloud on his head. He didn't look like a human, but a god who had descended to the earth.

"Master?"

Master Chengkong glanced at him and said, "You stay here."

After saying this, he held the Qingjing Bamboo in his hand, turned into a ray of golden light, and flew into the blood-red sky.

…

Three days later, Master Tongming saw the golden light return and Master Chengkong appeared in front of him. His face was golden with purple, and he seemed to be seriously injured.

"Walk!"

Before he could say anything, Master Chengkong shouted loudly, and Master Tongming understood what he meant and ran away with Master Chengkong.

A moment later, several vague shadows of demons came running towards them from Chenjun. It seemed that they saw that they were running too fast, and these figures roared unwillingly - the roar reached Master Tongming's ears, and it made his mind shake and he kept falling down.

When Master Chengkong shook the Qingjing Bamboo in his hand, he regained consciousness, but he couldn't help feeling scared.

The two returned to Tongming Mountain and felt slightly relieved.

Master Tongming looked at Master Chengkong and saw that the dark red color on his face became more and more intense, as if he was injured.

"The envoy?"

He asked a little worriedly.

"No problem." Master Chengkong touched the quiet bamboo, and the leaves swayed slowly, creating a breeze that gently caressed his cheek.

Master Tongming watched with his own eyes as Master Chengkong seemed to have completely recovered - in just a few breaths! He was envious and his eyes fell on the Qingjing Bamboo, only then did he discover the clue: a quarter of the branches and leaves on the Qingjing Bamboo showed signs of withering.

"this……"

"There are five incarnations of the Great Freedom Demon Sect in Chen County..." Master Chengkong said, "They... are refining the Five-Directional Blood Evil Flag."

"Five-sided bloody evil flag?"

"This is one of the supreme methods of the Great Freedom Demon Cult - using the Five Blood Evil Flags to form a formation, it can condense a true body of the Demon Ancestor and lead the Demon Ancestor to the lower world."

It can be heard that Master Chengkong is very familiar with the Great Freedom Demon Sect.

"This... is what Zheng Fa said true?"

"Thank goodness for him, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to stop it in time..."

"You, my Lord, have stopped the Demon Ancestor from coming to the world?"

Master Tongming said happily.

"No, I just broke two Five-Direction Blood Evil Flags. This formation of flags is not easy to refine, and it can delay for a while..." Master Chengkong said frankly.

"The envoy... has also made great contributions to our sect!"

Master Tongming said sincerely, after all, it would be too terrifying if they allowed the arrival of the Great Freedom Demon Ancestor without knowing it.

"At least half of this achievement belongs to Zheng Fa..." Master Chengkong seemed to have no intention of taking credit for it. "As soon as he said that the Great Free Demon Ancestor was about to descend, I knew roughly..."

"There is a deliberate plan, and there is also this quiet bamboo."

"It's nothing..."

Master Tongming also nodded. Although it was just a piece of news, the problem was that the news was too crucial.

"The envoy... the five gods?"

"We can't win. Not to mention that Qing Jingzhu is almost useless, even if he is a good person, I don't have confidence." Master Cheng Kong said bluntly, "Among those five people, there is one person I know..."

"who?"

"The Netherworld Immortal - Qin Mu."

Master Tongming's face was broken. He looked at Master Chengkong, his mouth opening and closing, but he said nothing.

"It was him, the one who betrayed my Supreme Dao and became the Holy Son of the Demon Sect... Uncle Qin."

“…”

"I have already sent a letter to the sect. The other sects in the Five Xuanwei Sects will not sit idly by..."

Master Tongming heaved a sigh of relief...

Indeed, what kind of Xuanwei Five Sects are they if they can't shake people? ...

In the Nine Mountains Realm, according to custom, Master Qian should have gone to the medicine garden early, but today he was preoccupied, and he did not walk out of his yard until noon.

When the disciples of Jiushan Sect saw him, they all saluted with a smile.

Some call him teacher, some call him real person...

Those who call him teacher are naturally his disciples who learn agronomy from him.

Those who called him "Master" also knew that he had made many contributions to the Jiushan Sect.

All of them were done with closeness and respect.

His aptitude was not good, and his cultivation was not high either. Not to mention in the Nascent Soul... er, God Transformation Sect like the Jiushan Sect, even in the original Qianhe Sect, he had never received such respect.

On ordinary days, he would return the gifts seriously one by one and really enjoyed this kind of respect.

But today he was a bit perfunctory, or rather, a bit afraid to face it.

But when he walked past the Temple of the Sages, he slowly stopped and took a look inside.

His eyes fell on the statues of him and several of his disciples.

He looked for a long time before slowly walking towards the medicine garden.

Several of his disciples had been waiting in the medicine garden for a long time, and were very surprised to see him arrive so late.

"Master, are you feeling unwell?"

A female disciple saw that he looked unhappy and couldn't help but ask.

"Nothing."

Master Qian looked at the various crops in the experimental field of the medicine garden——

There are grains such as rice and wheat that can be used as staple food or to feed livestock.

There are fruits and vegetables that can be eaten as vegetables.

It can also be used as a seasoning.

These are all new crops they have researched, but many of them are not suitable for large-scale promotion. Several types such as thunder pepper are actually selected from hundreds or thousands of finished products.

This experimental field can be said to be soaked with his hard work and sweat.

Several disciples watched him stare at the experimental field for a long time, and they were also confused:

Master was so weird today.

"You guys, do you want to leave?"

"Leave, leave where? Leave Master?"

A disciple asked.

"Leave the Nine Mountains Realm."

"That's not the case."

Master Qian glared at the disciple, as if he knew he was teasing him, and shook his head, saying, "The Nine Mountains Realm may be in great danger..."

Seeing his serious expression, the disciples looked at each other with solemn expressions on their faces.

"We're... gonna run again?"

The female disciple said weakly.

"It's okay. This is allowed by Master Zheng." Master Qian explained.

Hearing the name of Zheng Fa, everyone felt even more depressed, knowing that this was indeed true...

"Master, what about you?"

A disciple asked.

Master Qian didn't say anything and seemed to be struggling.

"Senior brothers, please go ahead. I won't leave." The female disciple suddenly said.

"Um?"

"I have a senior brother from Jiushan Sect..."

"...Who?" another male disciple asked. Seeing her shaking her head, the male disciple stopped asking and just said, "I'm not leaving either."

Even Master Qian was a little puzzled.

"I have inquired about the previous Hundred Immortals Conference... It's too chaotic outside." The male disciple said, "Many people I know are dead or alive. There was a great disaster in the Nine Mountains Realm, and there is even more outside. As a Qi training disciple with no background, how can I survive if I go out there?"

After saying that, he looked at the test field and said, "At least I know that Master Zheng will not let me die in vain."

“…”

Master Qian glanced at these disciples and saw that they all seemed to be convinced by this disciple, and their faces became firm.

"Master, what about you?"

Master Qian glanced at them and suddenly smiled, "The disciples I taught, the fields I planted, and the things that allowed me to stand up straight are all here. Where else can I go?"

…

Senior Sister Zhang stood in the distance, watching this scene. Suddenly she turned her head and whispered to a flying sword beside her:

"In fact, to make people not want to betray... you don't have to rely on fear, right?"

The flying sword trembled, as if it couldn't speak.
