Chapter 405
After reading the information about the Zuo family, Peng Siye was shocked and immediately took the information to find the head master.
"Master, please take a look at the name of Junior Brother Zuo's son in the mortal world."
The head of the sect took it and took a look, his eyes widened immediately: "Zuo Yuanjing? What does this have to do with the head of the Jingyan Sect, Yuan Jing?"
Peng Siye's heart sank when he saw this name. He smiled bitterly and said, "Master Yuan Jing once said that his biological father abandoned his wife and children to join the orthodox sect. Perhaps, this Master Yuan Jing is really Junior Brother Zuo's biological son."
The head of the sect also smiled bitterly: "What kind of thing is this? If he really did it, then Ning Yan must be with him. Ning Yan disappeared for a few years and reappeared. What is his cultivation level at this time? Is there any news about any cultivators who have passed the tribulation in the past two years?"
Peng Siye shook his head and said, "Why did Elder Zhao only bring back Senior Brother Zuo? If he had brought back Senior Brother Zuo's son, wouldn't we have one more talented cultivator in Taiyi Sect?"
The head of the sect waved his hand and said, "This matter is just our speculation now, and it may not be counted. However, as the head of the sect, Master will restrict the elders of the sect from participating in this matter and let them settle their grudges on their own."
If the two leaders Yuan Jing and Ning Yan came for revenge, they cannot be stopped. And from the way Ning Yan handled the matter of Lu Herong, it can be seen that even if he turned to practicing magic, his character has not changed much. He only targets his enemies and will not vent his anger on other people. So if it is them this time, they will only target the culprit.
However, the reputation of Taiyi Sect was eventually affected. Before, they were still laughing at Chixia Sect, but they didn’t expect that it would be Taiyi Sect’s turn.
Zuo Wenlu and Xu Zhaoyue arrived at Taiyi Gate one after another without hiding their tracks. Their appearance immediately attracted the attention of many cultivators.
They exchanged glances. How could Xu Zhaoyue have the nerve to show up?
Of course she had the face, because she had a good father. Didn't they see that their father had been in Taiyi Town for a day and a night, and they didn't dare to say anything.
Hearing that they were coming, Elder Xu came out to meet them. He was very unfriendly to Zuo Wenlu. He was just taking his anger out on Zuo Wenlu. If it weren't for this man, how could his daughter have become like this and have to suffer humiliation with him?
Zuo Wenlu handed Elder Xu's luggage in a very graceful manner, which made the other cultivators who came with him secretly praise him. He is indeed a talented person of the younger generation of Taiyi Sect. If he is allowed to grow further, he will definitely become another leading figure in Taiyi Sect. However, now it depends on how he handles this matter.
After the ceremony, Zuo Wenlu stood up and asked, "Did Elder Xu find the person behind this?"
Elder Xu snorted coldly, "You are clearly a coward. Seeing me coming, you dare not even show your face! Zuo Wenlu, if Zhaoyue is hurt by you, I will never forgive you!"
Seeing this overbearing temper again, Zuo Wenlu felt unhappy again, but Xu Zhaoyue behind him stamped his feet and said, "Dad, look at what you are saying, Senior Brother Zuo will not hurt me."
Elder Xu snorted twice, and for the sake of his daughter, he did not say anything to embarrass Zuo Wenlu.
Just as Zuo Wenlu was about to ask something else, a voice suddenly rang out over Taiyi City: "It's good that everyone is here. Only then can a good show begin. Otherwise, without the main characters and supporting actors, how will the show begin?"
"Little thief? Get out here right now!" Elder Xu was furious. It turned out that the little thief had been hiding in Taiyi City all along, and now he dared to show up.
Zuo Wenlu flew into the air, looking for the source of the voice, and said, "May I ask who you are? How did you know about my Zuo family?"
"What does who I am have to do with the annihilation of the Zuo family? I thought the first thing you should do after learning about the annihilation of the Zuo family was to find out the real murderer and then avenge the Zuo family. What? Zuo Wenlu is reluctant to take action against Miss Xu? That's right, everyone in and outside Taiyi Sect knows that Miss Xu loves you, Zuo Wenlu, and she even washed her hands and cooked soup for you. If I had come a little later, would you and the murderer who annihilated the Zuo family have held a ceremony to form a double cultivation bond?"
"Nonsense, come out and confront me if you have the guts." Elder Xu scolded, but his spiritual sense quickly searched, trying to find the owner of the voice. He wanted to kill this person who dared to play tricks on him under his nose.
Hearing the other party's sarcastic tone, Zuo Wenlu frowned: "Junior Sister Xu said that this was not done by her, so where is the evidence?"
"Haha, didn't the evidence get delivered to your Taiyi Sect? Let me guess, what happened to those lackeys of Miss Xu? Were they killed by Elder Xu? Haha, I guessed that the witnesses would be silenced, and I guess I would be the next one to be silenced."
"But do you think that apart from those witnesses, there is no more evidence and I am helpless against the murderer? Miss Xu, I know how much you want to marry your good brother Zuo, so do you dare to swear to heaven that the Zuo family is not the one you ordered Chen Anchen to destroy?"
Everyone in the city was listening to their conversation. They felt that Yuan Jing's words made a lot of sense and guessed that the witnesses who were taken away had long been killed by Elder Xu. Otherwise, it would be easy to search their souls. If they were truly innocent, then search their souls. Only people with a guilty conscience would kill witnesses.
If the witnesses were silenced, what about the oath to heaven? If Elder Xu was not present, they would have shouted with Yuan Jing: "Miss Xu, please swear to heaven that it was not you who ordered the silencing. If she is truly innocent, swearing an oath will have no effect."
Xu Zhaoyue's face turned pale and she looked at her father for help. She could never make this oath.
When Zuo Wenlu saw her expression and actions, he immediately smiled bitterly. He could tell without any evidence that this matter was really related to Junior Sister Xu.
“Found it!”
Elder Xu did not receive his daughter's look for help, but he finally found the location by following the sound. Because Yuan Jing had been talking for too long just now, Elder Xu whooshed over an independent courtyard of an inn.
He waved his hand and a beam of spiritual light attacked: "You little thief, get out here!"
As soon as he moved, Zuo Wenlu and Xu Zhaoyue of course followed suit. Xu Zhaoyue's eyes flashed with joy. That was great, the person was finally found. She didn't need to swear an oath. If she fell into her father's hands, she would be in trouble.
Other monks also came to watch the fun, including those from the City Guard. However, the leading monk of the City Guard had already received a message from the Sect Leader. After reading the message, he looked strange. The Sect Leader actually ordered them not to intervene and let them settle their grudges on their own.
So whose side is the leader on?
The innkeeper was shocked and all the guests in the inn ran out. No one expected that the monk who made such a big noise actually lived in the same inn as them, and they might have met each other before.
Elder Xu struck out in anger, and everyone imagined that this small courtyard could not withstand it and would collapse in the blink of an eye.
But who would have thought that the spiritual light that was used to attack collided with the defense formation of the small courtyard, only bursting out a more dazzling light, but there was no sign of the defense formation being broken. Was it blocked? The monks were all shocked and came closer to take a look, but they could not see the situation in the courtyard clearly through the formation.
It was the innkeeper who remembered that there were two guests living in the courtyard. His face turned pale and he didn't know whether to tell Elder Xu.
At this time, another sneer was heard in the courtyard, as if laughing at Elder Xu's useless efforts: "What? Elder Xu and Zuo Wenlu don't dare to let Miss Xu swear? Are you guilty or for some other reason? Miss Xu, I ask you again, did you do it? Do you dare to swear that it was not you? Do you dare? Or don't you dare?"
"Damn it!" Elder Xu attacked again, this time using a magic weapon, without caring whether the buildings next to the courtyard would be affected.
"Boom!" The magic weapon and the defense array collided again. The spiritual light of the defense array caused ripples and flickered a few times, and finally calmed down. However, the surrounding buildings collapsed, and the innkeeper was in tears.
Elder Xu's attack failed again, which made his face turn red and angry.
Yuan Jing chuckled again inside: "It seems that he dares not to do that. Elder Xu is indeed Miss Xu's biological father. It seems that he knows your daughter's temperament and behavior very well, so he can't wait to silence her first. Then what about Zuo Wenlu, what are you waiting for?"
This was simply executing Zuo Wenlu right under the eyes of the public, which made Zuo Wenlu feel ashamed. Since he began to practice cultivation, he had never been forced like this before.
Yuan Jing forced Zuo Wenlu, and before Zuo Wenlu did anything, Xu Zhaoyue felt distressed and shouted to the courtyard: "So what if I did it? Do they deserve to make Senior Brother Zuo worry about them and affect his cultivation? That woman is even less worthy of being Senior Brother Zuo's wife, that bitch should have died long ago!"
There was a gasp from the back. Xu Zhaoyue really admitted it. No wonder she didn't dare to swear before. Look at what she said. What did she mean by not being worthy of being the wife of Senior Brother Zuo? Didn't Zuo Wenlu marry her himself? What did she mean by she should have died long ago?
Many people with sharp eyes finally figured out why Xu Zhaoyue killed the Zuo family. It was purely out of jealousy and tyranny. Sure enough, this was the spoiled Miss Xu in their minds, not the gentle and considerate Fairy Xu.
"Zuo Wenlu, it's your turn now. What's your decision?" Yuan Jing continued to press. People outside could not see inside, but people inside could see outside. He looked at Zuo Wenlu standing above the courtyard and thought to himself that he was worthy of being the male protagonist. He had good looks, a good figure, and a great temperament. He was indeed very attractive to women. No wonder Xu Zhaoyue could not escape from him in both his lifetimes.
Zuo Wenlu clenched his fists and stared at the yard below: "Who are you? What is your relationship with the Zuo family?"
There was another sigh from inside, as if talking to himself: "It's so close, can't you feel it?"
I felt it! It was precisely because of this feeling that Zuo Wenlu found it incredible. How could this be possible?
If the closest blood relationship in the world is what is, it is between father and son and mother and son. With such a strong blood relationship, and Yuan Jing did not deliberately conceal it, how could a cultivator be unaware of it?
"Who is he?" Elder Xu turned and asked Zuo Wenlu.
Zuo Wenlu's fingernails had broken his palms, blood was dripping out, and his voice was extremely heavy: "You are Zuo Yuanjing."
Who is Zuo Yuanjing? Xu Zhaoyue's eyes were confused. How could she not know that there was still a Zuo Yuanjing alive in the Zuo family, and why would he come to Taiyi Sect to seek revenge?
As soon as Yuan Jing and Ning Yan became famous outside, Xu Zhaoyue was devoted to Zuo Wenlu and didn't care much about the outside world. In Feihong Continent, no matter how powerful it was, could it be compared with Taiyi Sect? No matter how talented it was, could it be compared with the future status of Senior Brother Zuo? Therefore, he didn't even know much about the Jingyan Sect and its two leaders.
As soon as the three words "Zuo Yuanjing" came out, the formation in the yard below was opened, and everyone could see the situation in the yard clearly. Two monks stood there, looking up at the sky, and although they were obviously in a lower position, their momentum did not weaken at all.
The two of them slowly rose into the sky. Yuan Jing brushed his sleeves and met Zuo Wenlu's gaze with an open look: "Yes, I am Zuo Yuanjing. Miss Xu probably doesn't know who I am. I am the son of the woman who is not worthy of being Zuo Wenlu's wife. Zuo Yuanjing, I didn't die in that sea of fire. Are you surprised, Miss Xu?"
What a devilish surprise! It really shocked the monks who came to watch the excitement. He turned out to be Zuo Wenlu's biological son. No wonder he came to Taiyi Sect to seek revenge. His entire family was burned to death in a fire. How could he not take revenge?
"No, aren't they the Jingyan Sect's Sect Masters Ning Yan and Yuan Jing?"
"Master Yuan Jing? Isn't that Zuo Yuan Jing?"
"So that's it, God!"
When the dust settled, the head of Taiyi Sect sat back in his seat, finally confirming that it was indeed Zuo Wenlu's biological son. At this moment, Elder Zhao was called by the head of the sect. He smiled bitterly and asked Elder Zhao: "Why didn't you go back to the Zuo family and bring Zuo Wenlu's son back to the sect?"
Elder Zhao was speechless. Who could have imagined that a father and son in the mortal world were both geniuses in cultivation? The chance of this happening was extremely small, but they had encountered it.
This time the whole city was in an uproar again, and everyone was shouting loudly. They didn't expect that the head of Jingyan Sect, Yuan Jing, and Zuo Wenlu were actually biological father and son, and Zuo Wenlu almost formed a pact with Xu Zhaoyue, the enemy who harmed their family. No wonder the head of Yuan Jing kept calling him Zuo Wenlu, and there was no respect for this father in his eyes.
That's right. After all, the reason why the Zuo family was wiped out was because of their father Zuo Wenlu. There would be nothing wrong with Yuan Jing taking his anger out on his father.
Zuo Wenlu looked at Yuan Jing in a daze. It turned out to be his son. His son was still alive. Not only was he alive, but his cultivation was even higher than his.
He came to avenge his mother and his people.
