Chapter 372: The whole world is watching, retreating



“Well, no matter what the real identity of the Ghost Face Man is, since he is determined to be an enemy of Xuankong Mountain, we cannot just stand there and say nothing.

Otherwise, our Xuankong Mountain will lose its prestige, and it will be even more difficult to control Xizhou in the future."

Just as the several spiritual fluctuations in the jade token were arguing endlessly, the person who spoke at the beginning spoke.

As soon as these words were spoken, the fluctuations of the other souls suddenly quieted down.

Because they know that the host is right.

There was no point in them arguing about the identity of the Ghost Face Man.

Since the other party has provoked them to this extent in Xuankong Mountain, the most urgent task is to capture this person and kill him in public.

Otherwise, if he continues to show off his power in Xizhou like this, it will be a fatal blow to the prestige of their Xuankong Mountain.

In the future, let alone dominating the world, even whether Xizhou can be controlled is still a question.

"The host is right. No matter who this person is, as long as we can catch him, everything will be clear."

"Yes, this person is arrogant and conceited. It is obvious that he does not take us at Xuankong Mountain seriously at all. It should not be difficult to ambush and capture him."

“After we capture this man, we cannot let him die so easily. We must extract his spirit and soul, refine it into a lamp, and burn it day and night, only then can we comfort his spirit in heaven!”

Just as several powerful spiritual fluctuations were using the jade token to discuss and conspire.

Many forces in the world have also received information about Xizhou.

The emergence of the four secret places is such a major event that has attracted tremendous attention.

Many powerful forces in the world have long sent out spies to keep an eye on the movements of several secret places.

Even between the several secret places, spies were sent to investigate each other so as to know ourselves and the enemy and be aware of the opponent's situation at all times.

The commotion Lu Qing caused in Xizhou was so big that no one could hide it.

Therefore, on that day, with the flying of numerous carrier pigeons and hawks and jade talismans, almost all the top forces in the world knew what had happened in Xizhou.

In Dongzhou, on top of a beautiful and majestic mountain, in front of a Taoist temple, an old Taoist sat cross-legged on a piece of blue stone and preached.

There were more than ten Taoists in front of him, listening attentively.

Suddenly, the old Taoist's expression changed. He looked up at the sky and caught a ray of light falling from the sky.

The light faded away, revealing the object inside, which was a small white jade talisman.

The old Taoist priest used the power of his soul to probe into it and read the information inside. Soon, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Master, what happened?"

A middle-aged Taoist priest below asked.

If Lu Qing were here, he would be able to recognize that the person asking the question was none other than the Taoist Yangming with whom he had a pleasant conversation in the Holy City that day.

"Something happened in Xizhou."

The old Taoist priest did not hide anything and spoke directly.

"Something happened in Xizhou. What trouble did those old bald donkeys cause again?"

Taoist Yangming asked, but his face did not show any surprise.

Obviously, in his opinion, those old bald donkeys were restless and it would be abnormal if they didn't cause some trouble.

“It wasn’t the monks who were causing trouble, but other people in Xizhou, and judging by the situation, they were heading specifically for Xuankong Mountain.

In Xizhou, a mysterious person appeared, driving a flying magic weapon, and was destroying many temples and Buddha statues that were being built in Xuankong Mountain, and slaughtering their disciples who were away..."

The old Taoist priest gave a brief account of what was said in the jade talisman.

The other Taoists were just stunned and shocked.

"There is actually such a thing. Who is so bold as to provoke Xuankong Mountain like this? Do they really think those old bald donkeys are vegetarians?"

Taoist Yangming was also surprised and said with some disbelief.

He couldn't believe that there was such a bold person in the world who dared to provoke that group of crazy bald donkeys.

Even though their Qingyang Temple had a deep grudge against them, they did not dare to bully them like this.

"We don't know yet." The old Taoist shook his head. "That man wears a ghost mask and doesn't show his true face. No one knows his true origins."

"Grandmaster, could it be that someone from the other two secret places did this?"

Taoist Yangming thought for a moment and said.

"It's hard to say, but it's unlikely. Yunshui Secret Realm, Hanshui Palace, and Xuankong Mountain don't have any major grudges. Logically, they wouldn't go and provoke that group of monks for no reason." said the old Taoist priest.

Taoist Yangming nodded. Indeed, among the four secret places, their Qingyang Temple and Xuankong Mountain were the most incompatible.

The other two secret places might also dislike Xuankong Mountain, but there is no reason to cause trouble for them at this critical juncture.

"That means there is another mysterious and powerful person who is dissatisfied with Xuankong Mountain.

The person who dares to provoke that group of bald donkeys like this must be very powerful.

And the hatred with Xuankong Mountain must be quite deep.”

Taoist Yangming began to speculate.

Somehow, Lu Qing's face suddenly appeared in his mind.

If there was one powerful person in the world who had the deepest hatred against Xuankong Mountain, the first person he thought of would be that young man.

And based on Lu Qing's character that he had witnessed in the Holy City that day, it was possible that the fearless young man could really do such a shocking thing.

But, could it be him?

Taoist Yangming was not sure.

After all, the master just said that the mysterious man who provoked Xuankong Mountain in Xizhou was riding a golden flying magic weapon.

Only those who have already embarked on the path of immortal cultivation and have profound cultivation can control magical instruments.

Although Lu Qing was powerful, he had just survived the heavenly tribulation and entered the innate realm in the Holy City that day.

Moreover, Taoist Yangming could see clearly at that time that Lu Qing was following the path of martial arts, and what he cultivated was innate true qi, not spiritual power.

It seems to be different from what the master said.

"Yangming, what are you thinking about?"

The old Taoist saw that Taoist Yangming looked thoughtful and asked.

"Nothing." Taoist Yangming came back to his senses, "Grandmaster, since such a big thing happened in Xizhou, I want to go over there to take a look."

The old Taoist thought for a moment and said, “That’s good. Xuankong Mountain will definitely respond to such a provocation.

If you go there, you might be able to get a glimpse of their background.

But you must remember that you must be careful on this trip and not act recklessly or expose your identity at will.

Those old monks are very angry now, and they might even think that the mysterious man was sent by our Qingyang Temple.

If you get into trouble, they will take their anger out on you, but we will be far away and we will not be able to protect you."

Taoist Yangming was startled and replied respectfully, "Yes, I will remember this."

The old Taoist took out an object from his bosom and handed it to Taoist Yangming: "Take this. If you really encounter trouble, use it as a sacrifice and it can protect you.

Also, go to the temple and pick out two magical instruments to take with you. When you go out, make sure you ensure your own safety."

"Thank you, Master." When Taoist Yangming saw the item, he was surprised and took it respectfully.

Half an hour later, a streak of light flew out from the mountain peak and headed straight towards Xizhou.

A similar situation also occurred in the other two secret forces.

In the big state where the Yunshui Secret Realm is located, several giant flying birds took off into the sky.

In Beizhou, several streaks of light also flew up.

The direction he was heading to was also Xizhou.

Even the top forces in other states of the world sent their disciples or spies to Xizhou to find out the situation.

After all, this matter is too big.

Hanging Mountain is one of the four secret places. It has just been reborn, but someone dares to step on it and provoke it.

Everyone wanted to see how Xuankong Mountain would respond.

More importantly, we need to see whether this ancient secret place, which has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, is really as profound and invincible as the legend says.

For a time, Xizhou, which had already attracted much attention, became the focus of attention of the entire world.

I don’t know how many forces have sent people in.

Although Xuankong Mountain was aware of this, they could do nothing about it.

Because of the wanton massacre committed by the mysterious ghost-faced man, the disciples they had sent out all rushed back to Lingshan Mountain Range after hearing the news.

Everyone values ​​their life, and knowing that a powerful evil demon is hunting down the disciples of Xuankong Mountain, no one is willing to take risks outside.

This also meant that Xuankong Mountain had no time to take care of other things and could only allow various forces to send spies into Xizhou.

What made Xuankongshan even more distressed was that after destroying their strongholds on the first day, the mysterious man with a ghost face suddenly disappeared.

There was no movement for the next few days, as if he had already left Xizhou.

This made it impossible for Xuankong Mountain to carry out the ambush attack.

"Young Master, how long are we going to stay here?"

In a hidden cave, the figure of "Yan" emerged and sat opposite Lu Qing.

Lu Qing was sitting cross-legged, with Xiao Li sleeping soundly in his arms.

A chessboard is placed between each person and the spirit.

It was Lu Qing and "Yan" who were playing chess.

"No hurry, it won't hurt to stay another day or two."

Lu Qing picked up a black chess piece and placed it on the chessboard.

"Anyway, it's not me who's in a hurry now, but those bald donkeys. I guess they're searching the whole world for my whereabouts, right?"

"Young Master, you have killed so many of their elders and disciples, and destroyed so many temples and Buddha statues.

They are already standing on top of the Hanging Mountain, so of course they will be anxious."

"Yan" also picked up a white chess piece and tapped it on the chessboard, saying with a smile, "But there is one thing I don't quite understand. Young Master, you clearly had the opportunity to kill all the disciples who went out of Xuankong Mountain. Why did you let some of them go and let them retreat safely to Lingshan Mountain Range?"

"It's easy to kill those ordinary disciples." Lu Qing made another move, "But my intuition tells me that something is not right with Xuankong Mountain's actions.

So to be on the safe side, I decided to observe for a few days.

Anyway, whether those ordinary disciples are killed or not has no impact on the overall situation."

"I see."

"Yan" suddenly realized.

It felt a little strange why Lu Qing, who was in high spirits that day, suddenly chose to hide his tracks.

It turned out that I really felt the warning from somewhere.

It couldn't help but sigh in its heart.

He is worthy of being the son of great fortune who has been blessed with the light of merit by heaven and earth. Even the way of heaven is helping him all the time.

Once there is danger, give an immediate warning.

It is really terrifying to be an enemy of such a being that is favored by the destiny of heaven and earth.

It would be their nightmare if Xuankong Mountain provoked such an enemy.

"But young master, if Xuankong Mountain continues to hide in the Lingshan Mountains, won't you be unable to do anything to them?"

Yan asked again.

"If you can't do anything about it, then that's fine." Lu Qing said indifferently, "My purpose of coming here this time was not to destroy Xuankong Mountain.

Now I don’t have that ability yet.

As long as I can sabotage their plan to control Xizhou and not spare the time to go to Cangzhou to cause trouble for Jiuli Village, I will have achieved my goal. "

Lu Qing knew very well that there was a secret realm in Xuankong Mountain as a fallback, and it was unrealistic for him to completely destroy it.

Unless he has the power to break through the secret realm and sweep away everything.

Otherwise, even if all the disciples outside Xuankong Mountain were killed, it would at most only dampen their fighting spirit and cause them to lose some vitality, but would not hurt them fundamentally.

But obviously, he doesn't have such strength now.

Therefore, Lu Qing is already quite satisfied that Xuankong Mountain is now blocked in Lingshan Mountain Range and dares not come out.

After the commotion he caused a few days ago, I'm sure the outside world has almost known what happened in Xizhou.

With the whole world watching, he wanted to see how Xuankong Mountain would respond.

Will it keep shrinking or take other actions?

There was an inexplicable light in Lu Qing's eyes.
