Chapter 407
A son challenging his father to a fight, this was such a lively topic that not only did all the cultivators that could be mobilized from Taiyi City come out to watch, but countless disciples of Taiyi Sect also came out.
The disciples of Taiyi Sect wanted to support Zuo Wenlu, but the other party was Zuo Wenlu's biological son, and Elder Xu and his daughter died at their hands.
They wanted to denounce and investigate, but the Supreme Elder had already come forward to challenge Ning Yan to a fight, so it was not appropriate for them to say anything more about the matter. The Supreme Elder also said that Elder Xu and his daughter deserved it.
Thinking about Xu Zhaoyue being burned alive in front of so many people, wailing in pain until the moment before his death, it is chilling to listen to. However, Zuo Yuanjing's experience makes people feel very sympathetic, as all 86 members of the tribe were burned to death because of Xu Zhaoyue's order.
Karma is indeed true.
"Who will win in this battle between Master Zuo and his son?"
“That person is the head of Jingyan Sect, Yuan Jing. Although he entered the path of cultivation later than Uncle Zuo, his cultivation is not weak. He must have reached the Nascent Soul stage a long time ago.”
"Oh, how could such a talented son be abandoned by Master Zuo?"
"Who knows how much Uncle Zuo regrets it in his heart, but it's a pity that there's no going back."
In fact, Zuo Wenlu has many supporters, but firstly, because of the exposure of Xu Zhaoyue's incident, Zuo Wenlu's halo has weakened a lot, and secondly, the other party is Zuo Wenlu's biological son, who should they support? No matter who they support, in the end, aren't they still a family?
When they saw Zuo Wenlu and Yuan Jing standing face to face, they discovered that the father and son did have some similarities if they looked closely.
Yuan Jing summoned out two swords, which happened to be of water and wood attributes. Zuo Wenlu also wielded a sword. The two of them fought as soon as their eyes met.
Zuo Wenlu knew that he could not lose, even if the opponent was his own son, but just because of this he could not lose, because the consequences of losing would be even more serious.
The two men fought very fiercely, and their momentum was rising steadily. Yuan Jing saw very clearly that Zuo Wenlu's eyes were becoming colder and colder, with a kind of indifference that was condescending. Yuan Jing guessed that he was pushed to the limit by himself and began to revive his memories before reincarnation. Only immortals who are high above would treat people from the lower world as ants, just like Xu Zhaoyue would kill mortals as ants with ease.
That being said, they were actually quite a good match.
But Yuan Jing was not afraid. In the end, he gave up magic and competed directly with swordsmanship, which stunned the surrounding monks. The strength of these two people was too strong. Could they really be said to be father and son?
Both of them become stronger as the battle goes on, and in the end, even a Divine Transformation cultivator might not be able to defeat them.
Including the top leaders of Taiyi Sect, they were all secretly paying attention to this battle. They also saw the problems and exchanged views with each other.
"What's going on? Isn't Zuo Wenlu a mid-Nascent Soul cultivator? It's understandable that he was promoted to the late Nascent Soul at the beginning, but now he is at the peak of the Nascent Soul. Moreover, the aura on him is very terrifying. Who is he?"
"Let's not talk about Zuo Wenlu. Even Yuan Jingchangmen is not an ordinary person. How many years has he been practicing? I can feel that his soul power is very strong and powerful, unlike that of someone of his age. Moreover, there seems to be a very mysterious aura lingering around him."
"Could it be that...you said these two people are both important people?"
"Perhaps this is also true for Sect Leader Ning Yan. Where in Feihong Continent have we ever seen a cultivator advance so quickly?"
These high-ranking officials gasped. Before, the headmaster did not allow them to intervene. They thought the headmaster was too weak. Why should they give face to Jingyanmen, a sect that was established not long ago? This would only boost others' ambitions and destroy their own prestige. But now they don't think so.
The auras of both men in the battle soared to the point where they were just a hair's breadth away from a heavenly calamity, making one wonder if one's eyes were going blind, how could one advance while fighting?
The spiritual energy from all around also surged in, and both of them drew it directly, because the spiritual energy in their bodies was almost exhausted. Now it was a competition of who had greater willpower.
Yuan Jing suddenly dropped his two swords and punched Zuo Wenlu, causing him to scream and fly backwards. Yuan Jing chased after him relentlessly, punching him again, again stunned everyone, including the top leaders of Taiyi Sect.
"This kid is also practicing his body?" With such a strong body, it's hard to believe that he hasn't practiced it. How old is he? He is proficient in magic and swordsmanship, and he still has time to practice his body. It makes people suspect that he and Zuo Wenlu are probably reincarnations.
After beating Zuo Wenlu so hard that he couldn't get up, Yuan Jing panted and taunted him, "Are you convinced? Zuo Wenlu, you are nothing but this. You abandoned your wife and children? You can't even beat your own son."
"Don't worry, I'm at Jingyan Gate, waiting for your challenge at any time. I, Yuan Jing, will never be timid and afraid to accept the challenge!"
Yuan Jing once again looked at Zuo Wenlu with contempt, as he regarded him as an enemy, then turned around with a hearty laugh and walked away with Ning Yan.
Everyone was silent. If they were in Zuo Wenlu's position, they would feel so painful being stepped on by Yuan Jing, their biological son. But it was Zuo Wenlu, the biological father, who betrayed Yuan Jing and his mother first.
It's not unfair to be beaten.
The top leaders looked at Zuo Wenlu who was lying on the ground, glanced at each other and shook their heads. They should not interfere in the affairs of the father and son. If Zuo Wenlu was an ordinary disciple of Taiyi Sect, it would be fine, but it was clear from before that he was a person of great background and they could not discipline him.
After everyone had left, Zuo Wenlu got up from the ground. With a poisonous look in his eyes, he glanced in the direction where Yuan Jing and Ning Yan had left, then turned and flew in another direction, which was not the direction back to Taiyi Sect.
During the previous battle, images flashed through his mind, and those images told him that Zuo Wenlu was just his current identity. Next time, he could abandon even the identity of Zuo Wenlu, but the man named Yuan Jing must not be allowed to live in this world, otherwise he would become his inner demon.
Yuan Jing said to Ning Yan: "Zuo Wenlu has awakened ahead of time."
"Do you need my help?"
Yuan Jing shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that the more you attack him, the more likely it is that he will awaken. His current awakening is probably not complete. When facing a life-and-death crisis, his immortal soul will probably fully revive."
Ning Yan said coldly: "Then we will undermine his confidence step by step and let him collapse on his own."
"Yes, that's what I mean." Yuan Jing agreed. He inherited this body, so he was destined to fight Zuo Wenlu. Even if he was the reincarnation of an immortal soul, Yuan Jing would not back down. So he would try to see if the immortal soul was destined to be invincible.
The next day, Ning Yan and Taiyi Sect's Grand Elder Song had a friendly exchange and discussion outside Taiyi City. It ended in a draw. Finally, the two sides agreed to exchange Taoism again on another day.
The onlookers didn't know whether the two really fought to a draw or if one of them let the other win on purpose. However, since they were not involved in the fight and didn't have the eyesight to see clearly, they could only assume it was a draw. They could also see the attitude of Taiyi Sect from this. They did not want to make things difficult for the two sect leaders Ning Yan and Yuan Jing. The two sect leaders also respected Taiyi Sect very much and came here just to settle personal grudges.
The top leaders of Taiyi Sect also unanimously agreed that the outcome would be a draw. Yes, as the person involved, how could Grand Elder Song not know that Ning Yan had indeed let him win? Of course, no one used any life-saving tricks, after all, it was not a life-and-death battle. But in terms of direct competition and exchanges, Grand Elder Song was indeed slightly inferior.
"Young people are formidable." After returning, Grand Elder Song sighed and suppressed the dissatisfaction of others. "Don't interfere in Zuo Wenlu's affairs in the future, no matter if he continues to cause trouble for Sect Leader Yuan Jing or not."
"Isn't he the father of Sect Leader Yuan Jing? Why would you go looking for trouble with him?" someone asked in surprise.
Elder Song shook his head and said, "It's not that simple. Zuo Wenlu is not just Zuo Wenlu. The atmosphere in the sect and among the cultivators on the Feihong Continent is indeed not good. They are always fighting for supremacy, which leads to weak character and cultivation. If our Taiyi Sect wants to maintain its leading position in the Taoist sect, we cannot ignore this aspect. The Chixia Sect has Lu Herong, and our Taiyi Sect also has Xu Zhaoyue, which is not much better than the Chixia Sect."
"I will follow the orders of the Grand Elder."
After a battle with Grand Elder Song, Ning Yan and Yuan Jing left the Taiyi Sect's territory.
A few years ago, Ning Yan fought with the Great Elder of the Chixia Sect who had reached the state of transformation into a god, which made Ning Yan famous overnight.
A few years later, the battle between Yuan Jing and Zuo Wenlu of Taiyi Sect made Yuan Jing famous. It made people realize that Sect Leader Yuan Jing was not a subordinate of Sect Leader Ning Yan, but was equally powerful and strong. This can be seen from the battle scenes recorded by the photo stone.
The most amazing thing is that Sect Leader Yuan Jing is Zuo Wenlu's biological son. The fight between father and son adds a lot of color to the battle. The grudge between the father and son was uncovered by all the cultivators, and the vicious female supporting character Xu Zhaoyue became a character that everyone wanted to beat.
What is incomprehensible is that Xu Zhaoyue died at the hands of Yuan Jing rather than Zuo Wenlu. It is said that Zuo Wenlu almost formed a contract with Xu Zhaoyue. This cast a shadow on Zuo Wenlu's reputation. Compared with Yuan Jing, the son, Zuo Wenlu, the father, is obviously inferior.
These things happened on Feihong Continent, and originally had nothing to do with the mortal world. However, this matter was related to the Chen Guo Jingjun Palace in the mortal world. When the news reached the Jingjun Palace, the current Jingjun Prince was so scared that he sat on the ground with an extremely ugly face, and cried out: "The Jingjun Palace is finished, the Jingjun Palace is finished."
The cultivators in the mansion had been abolished before, but as long as the children of the Chen family continued to stay well in Taiyi Sect, the status of the Jingjun Prince's Mansion would not change much, and the royal family would still respect them. However, this time, the power of the Jingjun Prince's Mansion in Taiyi Sect was uprooted, and it also offended someone it could not afford to offend. The situation in the Jingjun Prince's Mansion had changed.
They never expected that this disaster would be caused by the destruction of a small family. They thought that no one from the Zuo family escaped from the fire. Who could have thought that Zuo Wenlu's son escaped, and achieved such great success in a short period of time, a height that the entire Jingjun Palace looked up to but could not reach. If the Jingjun Palace didn't die, who would?
The Prince of Jing's Mansion quickly sent out a group of young men overnight. These young men brought with them resources and cultivation techniques, hoping that one day this group of people would be able to turn things around. However, no one could take revenge because the enemy's power was too strong. All they had to do was to preserve the continuation of this bloodline.
