Chapter 567: The Real Enemy

This old man, who usually sees the head of the dragon and does not see the end, asked his grandson Long Fusheng to temporarily put aside the training of the Dragon Protector Legion, and returned to Luoyang City to participate in the martial arts event, and finally won the title of martial champion.

He hoped that this title and the opportunity behind it would make him come true, and he would be born, just like the son of the Yin Kingdom known as the Dragon Slayer.

The old man from the Whole Soul Sect sneered, "Long Zhantian, listening to your tone, it seems that your grandson has already booked the title of Martial Champion?"

Long Zhantian glanced at him and said lightly: "Longpan Mountain Peak, Fengqi Wutong, isn't this a matter of course?

"Dragon, your dragon is about to be killed by the people of the Yin Kingdom, shouldn't your grandson stay in Longwan now? Why is it that he is running back to the sun now, isn't it to scare the dragon slaying feat of the prince of the Yin Kingdom?"

Long Zhantian didn't look at him and said: "Xun Ci, don't be crooked like a girl, Long Fusheng just killed your useless nephew, what a big deal makes you linger until now, if you feel unconvinced, let your grandson go and fight with my grandson, and the old man will never interfere." ”

The old man said angrily: "Your good grandson is so murderous that he killed my nephew just because he didn't agree with him, and he hung his head in front of the tavern, does Qingguo still have a royal law?"

"If you have any opinions, just go and tell Your Majesty...... But do you think Your Majesty will turn to his cousin for the sake of your nephew?"

The old man with his eyebrows suddenly propped his hands on the big table, the qi in his body suddenly soared, and the killing intent in his eyes quickly emerged.

However, Long Zhantian only had a mocking face, and his eyes were even more golden, as if a golden storm had been formed, and the dragon's blood qi was boiling and roaring, and his voice was greatly violent.

The originally happy atmosphere was instantly tense.

Several of the elders who sat at the same table with them were shocked by the performance of the two, obviously not understanding why they put their personal grievances here, and they all spoke out to persuade them to reconcile.

Zhang Xuande coughed lightly and said, "Elder Long, Elder Xun, we have more important things to discuss today, can we temporarily put aside the grievances between each other, and it can be regarded as selling a face." ”

Now that the alliance leader has opened his mouth to persuade peace, the two old men are not good at relying on the old man to sell the old man to continue fighting, and after snorting coldly, they reined in the qi that released their bodies.

Zhang Xuande gently took out a white letter from his arms, pushed it to the center of the platform, looked around at the elders, and said softly: "My ninth junior brother Zhang Pinzhu sent a crane letter back to Longhu Mountain a few days ago, bringing me a piece of news that worries me very much. ”

The old man Mai was stunned, he knew that this day would appear sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to appear now.

Do not do any evil, do all good, this is the first creed circulated within the Shadow Moon Sect, but when it comes to outsiders, the meaning is reversed, and they become gutter rats that everyone wants to kill with their own hands.

The Shadow Moon Sect has the largest number of disciples in the Southern Continent Sect, and has never been willing to bow down to the Dao Alliance and join the Alliance, just like the most rebellious and undisciplined child in the family.

They don't believe in gods, Buddhas, or immortals, but believe in the existence of an ethereal being called the Lord of the Apocalypse, and in their teachings, this Lord of the Apocalypse will start a battle to slay the dragon and kill the last dragon in the world with his own hands.

As a result, the Qingguo Emperor issued an edict many years ago, defining the Shadow Moon Sect as an evil sect, and everyone could be killed, and finally pushed them into a situation of confrontation with the entire Southern Continent.

Eventually, the Shadowmoon Cult inevitably split into two factions, one advocating war against their regime with the Qing Kingdom, and the other being relatively conservative, insisting on waiting for the Lord of the Apocalypse to come and save the people.

As a result, the people of the main battle faction will inevitably go to the road of evil thoughts and murder, which will undoubtedly become the heart disease of the Zhao family's royal family, and even Longhu Mountain and Wudang Mountain have sent Taoist priests to encircle and suppress them many times, but they are like cockroaches that cannot be pinched to death, and they can always come back to life after many years of lurking.

Thirty years ago, the Dao Alliance decided to uproot the entire Shadow Moon Cult in the name of purging the cult, and directly sent the most elite Dao Alliance warriors, and finally launched a purge war.

It was the most tragic sect war on the rivers and lakes of the Southern Continent, which lasted for as long as a year, and the number of dead and wounded on the Dao Alliance's side alone was close to 10,000, and as for the Shadow Moon Sect, there were countless of them.

They raised their weapons to fight each other for their respective positions, blood stained countless streets red, and the families of the Shadow Moon Cult members who were found sat down and executed, and the entire southern continent seemed to be in a blood-colored fog, and the Shura Hell could be seen everywhere.

It wasn't until they killed the Grand Sect Master of the Shadowmoon Cult with their own hands, hanging his body in the middle of the city and setting it on fire, that the battlefield was completely over.

After this, the Shadow Moon Cult fell silent for a while, and no one ever saw them again, as if they were completely extinct.

Just after everyone thought that these gutter rats had been completely extinct, now Zhang Xuande personally told them that the rats were back!

The elders of the alliance present inevitably felt embarrassed, obviously everyone did their best in the war back then, which sounded like a long-planned conspiracy.

Now that the people of the Southern Continent believe that all the people of the Shadow Moon Sect have disappeared, if this news spreads, I am afraid that it will bring shame to the Dao Alliance, especially at the critical juncture when the war between the North and the South is coming, and the people must not be affected by internal and external troubles.

"They're back, exactly who they were thirty years ago. Zhang Xuande said softly.

That black war is about to break out again, and the major sects are going to fight with them endlessly, and the alliance elders and the people around them slowly look at each other, and no one can hide the uneasiness in their eyes.

"What are their goals?" asked someone with a pale face.

Zhang Xuande shook his head and said: "I don't know, but they are now carrying out frequent activities, and now it is the time when the martial arts are about to be held, maybe there is a connection between these two things?"

"Find them out, completely crush their plot, no one can make trouble on the dragon's territory!" Long Zhantian shouted in a low voice, his voice as if two steel swords were rubbing back and forth.

Gongsun Luo said slowly: "No matter what their purpose is, once the martial arts event is held, the best young people in the Southern Continent will appear in Luoyang City, and the power of the Dao Alliance will be stronger than ever, as long as they dare to come to Luoyang, this is our best chance to go to war!"

"The Shadow Moon Sect's anti-thieves finally came back to Sunset?" the rough man named Cao Shuo was shocked, "This is Sunset City, the most heavily defended place in the entire Southern Continent, the Dragoon Army can be mobilized at any time, how dare they?"

"Sunset City is the largest city in the world, and it is also the gathering center of the Southern Continent's luck, our Emperor His Majesty is in this city, how could the remnants of the Shadow Moon Sect not want to take advantage of the martial arts to make waves in Sunset City, and even make a move to assassinate the king. "Someone said.

"They're going to rebel!" said Long Zhan Weather.

"We will wage war against the Shadow Moon Cult again, completely eradicate them, dig out the people who are hiding behind the scenes and command them, and execute him in front of the people of the city!"

Gongsun Luo clapped his hands on the table, looking directly at the alliance elders, his voice sounded like a bronze bell, "The Shadow Moon Sect should have died thirty years ago, and the Dao Alliance can't tolerate the remnants of these rebellious dynasties, so they should be uprooted again!"

Everyone was looking at Zhang Xuande, Zhang Xuande just silently looked at the portraits of the ancestor of Longhu Mountain, his index finger was constantly tapping on the table, and the clear percussion sound echoed in the dragon and tiger grand view.

"Elders, you must know that the princes and kings are still in Sunset City, and if we start a war now, many ......people will die," Zhang Xuande pointed out.

"How can there be no dead in a war, and then we have to face the army from the Northern Regions Yinguo, and more people will die...... But beyond that, we need to completely sweep away these internal worries. Long Zhantian said in a deep voice. "If they dare to show up in the martial arts, then we will definitely make them pay for what they have done. ”

At this moment, the door of the Dragon and Tiger Grand View was pushed open, and an extremely strong smell of wine wafted in, making everyone frown slightly, and soon their eyes were shocked.

At this time, there was an old man in a tattered robe standing at the door, his hair was messy, and he was holding a whisk in his hand that was older than himself, and the peachwood talisman sword at his waist shook as he advanced.

He was out of place in this solemn place, but he just walked in as straightforwardly, as if he were walking into his own porch.

The alliance elders looked at each other in surprise, and at this time, their tense heartstrings suddenly relaxed, because the old heavenly master of Longhu Mountain finally appeared.

Presumably he had heard their conversation just now, but the Celestial Master still looked so calm and calm, and he thought that he had found a way to deal with it.

So each of them stood up and bowed to the Celestial Master.

"Master!" Zhang Xuande faced this raunchy old man with great awe.

Although he is the current Great Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain, the Old Heavenly Master is still alive and has not become an immortal, and he can be a heavenly immortal at any time, but he is unwilling to ascend to become an immortal.

In the words of the old heavenly master, it is not envious of immortals, not envy of heaven, and is willing to be a layman and love the mortal world.

"You guys are still alive, it seems that we have all become old and immortal in the mouth of young people. ”

The Celestial Master laughed without any scruples, no matter how open-mouthed he was, no one dared to make a rude act in front of him, because he was the Celestial Master.

Zhang Shenqi, the forty-eighth generation Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain, has magical powers, and is almost the strongest existence in the Southern Continent, and everyone has to pay respect.

"There are still a few dead, but all those who can climb have climbed here in Longhu Mountain. Long Zhantian said, "Since the Heavenly Master is here, why don't you tell us what we need to do next?How can we find out all the remnants of the Shadow Moon Sect and then wipe them out!"

The Old Heavenly Master's eyes were a little tired, he looked at Long Zhantian, and said softly: "Old Dao heard that the north side is going to start a war with the Southern Continent at any time, but if we want to wage war against the Shadow Moon Sect now, how many Dao Alliance Daoists do we need?"

"A conservative estimate is 10,000, because in the purge war thirty years ago, 8,673 Dao Alliance soldiers died in this war. Long Zhantian said.

"How long will it take to mobilize these 10,000 people to come to Falling Sun City?" the Old Heavenly Master glanced at the people on the entire table, and his gaze fell on Zhang Xuande.

Zhang Xuande was stunned, he didn't expect that Long Zhantian would suddenly ask the Dao Alliance to transfer the Dao Alliance of the Falling Sun

There are so many warriors, he has only succeeded the Heavenly Master to become the leader of the Dao Alliance in the past few years, and there are only 1,300 Taoist priests on Dragon and Tiger Mountain who can fight at any time, which is not even as much as half of the deaths in the purge battle that year.

"Xuande?" the Celestial Master asked again, in a tone like a father and a son talking.

Zhang Xuande came back to his senses and hurriedly said: "Master, the problem now is not time at all, but that we don't have so many manpower at all, nearly 10,000 people died in our war with the Shadow Moon Sect back then, all of them are those older generation of Dao Alliance warriors, the new generation of Dao Alliance warriors have not directly faced the people of the Shadow Moon Sect, and in another ten days, it will be a martial arts move, will it be too late to send a crane letter to transfer them to Sunset?"

Or we can hire those Jianghu warriors and let them replace some of the Dao Alliance warriors, and the warriors should be very enthusiastic. ”

"But we don't have enough manpower, won't you league elders mind letting your disciples participate in this war? ”

The alliance elders all glanced at each other, and they were very excited to eradicate the remnants of the Shadow Moon Sect again, and they even felt a little ready to go.

As members of the alliance, the children of the disciples and even the members of the family have an obligation to participate in this war, and some of them are eager for the energetic young people to find something to do.

Seeing their burning eyes, the Celestial Master didn't wait for them to show their loyalty to him, and then asked, "Then, this time, we will gather the Dao Alliance warriors as in the past, and then declare war on the Shadow Moon Sect again, and finally eradicate them completely." This time, we're not going to leave a single Shadow Moon Sect alive, are we?"

"The Dao Alliance will win and sweep away all evils!"

All the leagues stood up and swore loyalty, but Zhang Xuande did not get up, he stared at the smiling kind old man, like the only one among the impulsive juniors who could still keep calm and think.

"But what if we lose this time?"

The Heavenly Master suddenly said such a sentence, at this time they were still shouting the slogan of victory, and the expectations of the alliance elders for the war of the Shadow Moon Sect had just sprung up in their hearts, but they were poured a basin of cold water on the head by the Heavenly Master, but no one dared to question anything.

Because one side of the war will lose, but in the war between the Dao Alliance and the Shadow Moon Sect over the years, the Dao Alliance has never lost the upper hand, and it was not the Shadow Moon Sect that was killed by them and lost its armor.

They may pay a terrible price, but they will lose, and this kind of thing actually comes out of the mouth of the Heavenly Master, leaving them speechless.

The Heavenly Master looked at them with a smile on his face and said, "The loss of the Poor Dao Finger is not that we will be defeated by the Shadow Moon Sect, but that after the battle with the Shadow Moon Sect, the entire Southern Continent Dao Alliance will inevitably be greatly damaged, and finally be destroyed by the Northern Regions army and invade the Southern Continent, and we can only watch them slaughter the people of the Southern Continent, powerless to face all this, and finally face the fiasco of the fall of the entire territory, can you accept such an outcome?"

The league elders shivered fiercely in their hearts, and suddenly fell silent.

Yes, the greater threat than the Shadowmoon Cult is the Iron Legion from the Northern Regions that is difficult to defeat!

In the battle of Feizi Pass, the feat of countless steel soldiers from the Yin Kingdom descending from the sky to slaughter the dragon made many people in the southern continent frightened, and Emperor Qing was even more furious when he found out, and he almost lost his breath in the court.

"Old Dragon, you once served as the commander of the Dragon Guardian Legion, presumably you know the situation of the dragoons better than all of us here, the world knows that the dragoon army is unparalleled in the world, according to the records in ancient books, there have been tens of thousands of flying dragons soaring on the city of Luoyang, it is said that at that time even a piece of sunlight could not shine down, but today, the world's flying dragons except for those dragons who occupy the river as the king, why are there only a few thousand, why is this?"

The old heavenly master turned his head to ask Long Zhantian, and the other party clenched his fists and gritted his teeth silently.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I think you have no idea what is going on, and you haven't even seen who the real enemy is. ”

The Celestial Master picked up the envelope that was placed on the table, and after reading it himself, the envelope actually burned in his hand, and everyone silently looked at the flying ashes raised between the Celestial Master's fingers, and their thoughts were different.

"Lao Dao has been thinking all these years, what bad things did the Shadow Moon Sect do, let us repeatedly attack them, isn't it because they believe in the existence of a Dragon Slayer Lord in the doctrine, let the royal family kill them, you must know that they are not only the remnants of the Shadow Moon Sect in your mouth, but also our flesh and blood compatriots, maybe they have their own ideas and understanding, these ideas have violated the bottom line of the royal family and nobles, so they are guilty, we have to eradicate them, then what is the meaning of the existence of our Dao Alliance? Is it just to help the royal family kill people?"

"All good is pursued, all evil is not done, it seems that the people of the Shadow Moon Sect will say this, right?" said the Heavenly Master softly.

Everyone was silent, they didn't expect this sentence to come out of the mouth of the Heavenly Master himself, which was simply a great irony for them.

"Old dragon, there is a word called light war will be defeated, and there is another word called prosperity must decline, if one day the person who slays the dragon really appears, it is actually a helpless thing for you, and the way of heaven cannot be violated and there is no need to disobey, because the way of heaven will only raise people and will not harm people, and we will judge people to life and death in a few words now. That's what killers do. ”

The Old Heavenly Master walked to Long Zhantian's side, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and said sharply: "Our real enemy now is not the Shadow Moon Sect, nor the Northern Regions Army, but actually our own people." ”
