"The Imperial Court has been dissatisfied with us for a long time. Although this action is unexpected, it is not something unacceptable!”
"Indeed. Moreover, the Qingcheng Monastery doesn't have any experts! Even if Yu Canghai's martial arts were mediocre, he was only at the early stage of the Xiantian realm…It was not a big deal to be destroyed!”
"The Qingcheng Sect is indeed insignificant, but the imperial court's motive behind this matter…We have to think deeply. I heard that among the people sent by the imperial court this time, there's a prince who has a martial grandmaster protecting him!”
As soon as he said this, the atmosphere became serious.
"It's true. My disciples were present and witnessed everything! According to him, the person sent by the imperial court was the Ninth Prince. He had established the Six Fan School under the power of Emperor Ming. His intention was to rectify the martial world!”
"The ninth prince…I know of all the capable sons of Emperor Ming, but I've never heard of this ninth prince!”
"Just because you haven't heard of it doesn't mean it doesn't exist! The martial world and the imperial court had a long-standing feud. If this Ninth Prince had not offended Emperor Ming and was sent to his death, he must have had some outstanding qualities and was highly regarded!”
"I think the latter is more likely. If it's the former, why would they send a grandmaster-level guard? There were only a few experts in the imperial court, and they did not come here easily!”
The upper echelons of the various sects began to discuss animatedly, showing intense interest in the Ninth Prince, Zhu Hao.
"Everyone!" At this moment, Zuo Lenchan looked around and said in a deep voice,""Now is not the time to discuss this.”
"No matter what kind of person the ninth prince is, his purpose for coming here is most likely the opposite of ours.”
"Liu Zhengfeng held the Golden Basin Washing Ceremony this time with the intention of withdrawing from the pugilistic world and joining the imperial court as an official and a dog…This was originally his freedom.”
"But the martial world is the martial world. Before he leaves the martial world, he has to do what he should have done but did not do!”
Hearing this, everyone raised their eyebrows. Obviously, they knew what Zuo Lenchan was talking about.
Liu Zhengfeng and Sun Moon God Sect Qu Yang have a close personal relationship, so they make friends with each other.
Unfortunately, the Five Mountains Sword Sect boasted of being a righteous sect. Liu Zhengfeng was one of the two big shots of the Mount Heng Sect, and the Sun Moon Sect was one of the demonic sects recognized by the martial world.
Since ancient times, good and evil could not coexist. There were too many grudges between the two.
From their point of view, Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang should not have gotten to know each other. Even if they did meet, they should have drawn their swords and risked their lives!
However, he couldn't be like now, having a deep relationship and acting like a good friend, which was contrary to righteousness.
This action had tarnished the reputation of the Five Mountain Sword Sect!
Therefore, Zuo Lengchan had forced Liu Zhengfeng to kill Qu Yang himself time and time again as the leader of the Five Mountain Sword Sect.
It was to clear the name of the Five Mountain Sword Sect.
Liu Zhengfeng was naturally unwilling, but he could not resist the pressure.
He had no choice but to call for this event to withdraw from the martial world. From then on, he would not care about the world and would no longer be a member of the Hengshan Sect.
He hoped to use this opportunity to save the lives of his close friends and prevent himself from getting into trouble.
However, it was obvious that Zuo Lenchan did not want to see this result.
Zuo Lengchan was extremely ambitious and wanted to unify the Five Mountain Sword Sect.
This time, they had finally caught hold of the weakness of the Heng Mountain Sect. Naturally, they wanted to catch it until they died and eliminate Liu Zhengfeng, a major force of the Heng Mountain Sect.
To pave the way for his future.
How could he allow Liu Zhengfeng to continue with the Golden Basin Washing Away Ceremony as usual?
There was a saying that once one entered the martial arts world, one could not help themselves.
With his hands stained with blood and karma, it was very difficult for him to withdraw.
The Golden Basin Washing Ceremony was said to be a banquet for all parties to testify, but it was actually a last chance for those who had grudges with him in the past to settle their karma.
After today, everything in the past would disappear like smoke and no longer be pursued.
This was also the tacit understanding of the people in the martial arts world!
Hearing Zuo Lenchan's words, the people around looked at each other and frowned.""Alliance Master Zuo, we understand what you mean. The Five Mountain Sword Sect has always been united against the evil Sun Moon Sect, so we can't let Liu Zhengfeng tarnish the reputation of the righteous sect.”
"But…if Liu Zhengfeng has the Imperial Court backing him up this time, I'm afraid it'll be difficult to reverse the situation with just our strength!”
As soon as he said this, many people responded.
Everyone began to worry, their hearts wavering.。
The Five Mountain Sword Sect didn't have any famous martial grandmasters.
Under such circumstances, they still had to go against the imperial court, who knew that a martial grandmaster was present. It was like hitting a rock with an egg.
And what they considered the most was whether it was worth it or not!
Reputation was important, but when it was related to the survival of a sect, it was insignificant.
After all, Liu Zhengfeng was not a member of their sect. If they were to really talk about it, it would be a disgrace to the Heng Mountain Sect.
There was no need to really fall out with the imperial court over this!
It had to be said that the matter of Zhu Hao exterminating the entire Qingcheng Monastery today still caused them considerable psychological pressure.
If it was in the past, they would have said," How can the imperial court interfere with the affairs of the martial world?”。
But now, they didn't dare to think that way. The Qingcheng Sect had learned from their mistakes. The Ninth Prince and his followers were still in Hengyang City.
They didn't want to follow in the footsteps of the Qingcheng Monastery.
Zuo Lenchan glanced at the expressions of the people around him and understood what they were thinking.
He laughed coldly in his heart and said,"Everyone, don't panic. Although martial grandmasters are powerful, they are not unique to the imperial court!”
Everyone's eyes widened.
"Alliance Master Zuo, what do you mean?”
"Could it be that you have broken through to the martial grandmaster realm?”
The crowd was in an uproar, and the emotions in their eyes became more and more complicated.
Uneasiness, panic, seriousness…and so on.
Seeing this, Zuo Lengchan became more and more certain that the so-called Five Mountain Sword Sects were united. Only true unity was the right path.
He shook his head and said," I'm not talented. Although I've cultivated for many years, I've never been able to take that step!”
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief and asked,"What do you mean, Alliance Master Zuo?"
"Although we don't have a martial grandmaster, Shaolin has one!”Zuo Lenchan's lips curled up, and he smiled proudly.
Hearing this, the surrounding people looked at each other and asked in confusion,"Shaolin Temple is the pinnacle of the martial arts world, so there are naturally great grandmasters…But they are outsiders and never like to interfere in worldly affairs.”
" Not at first," Zuo Lengchan said." But I heard a few days ago that one of the four godly monks of Shaolin Temple, Kong Jian, appeared not far from Hengyang City!"”
"Just now, I sent someone to invite Master Kong Jian!”
The crowd fell silent.
Then, it caused a huge uproar!
