The two sides discussed the details of the transaction and exchanged information about the Heavenly Witch Sect. From Chen Wenyu, Yuan Xingchong learned a lot of secrets of the Heavenly Witch Sect and compared them with Liu Xuan's knowledge, and roughly figured out the sphere of influence and personnel of the Heavenly Witch Sect.

The official ship was moored in the canal, and the breeze blew the wind lanterns hanging on the masts.

Zhang Zichen also left Sizhou, stole Xiang Yunfei's body at night, took it away for burial, and then left Sizhou by boat, commanding the branch altar of Tianwuzong in Zhuzhou County, Jiangbei to transfer property to avoid being tracked down by the government.

At this time, the Black and White Society suddenly exerted its strength, using various connections to frantically attack the Heavenly Witch Sect, and confiscated the property of the Heavenly Witch Sect with the power of the government.

After Jiang Baiqing received Di Renjie's letter to Huainan and the counties in Jiangnan, he was furious and destroyed all the utensils in the study.

"Wu Zetian," Jiang Baiqing said through gritted teeth.

He didn't know what Wu Zetian meant, and borrowed Di Renjie's hand to destroy the Tianwu Sect and cut off the support for Li Zhen.

Willing to gamble and lose, Jiang Baiqing can get into the position of the sect master, and he has experienced a lot of wind and waves, and he can hold back his anger and remain unmoved. Dynasty change, from the Southern Song Dynasty Qi Liang Chen to the Sui and Tang Yi dynasties, the Jiang Wang Temple of Tianwu Sect stands majestically outside Jiankang City, these small wind and waves can not shake the foundation of Tianwu Sect, the temple is destroyed and rebuilt, and people die and look for it.

But two days later, the news of Xiang Yunfei's death in Sizhou made Jiang Baiqing completely violent.

"Liu Xuan, Di Renjie," Jiang Baiqing's indifferent expression became extremely hideous, and he did not have the demeanor of a fairy wind at all.

"Go to Yangzhou," Jiang Baiqing calmed down, walked out of the study, and instructed the Dao Tong beside him, "Inform Jiang Cheng to let him go to Yangzhou to meet me." ”

"Heavenly Wolf" Jiang Cheng is one of the five elders of the Heavenly Witch Sect, only twenty-three years old, Jiang Baiqing's distant nephew, because of his talent, he was accepted by Jiang Baiqing as a closed disciple, and he had to pass on the essence of the martial arts of the Heavenly Witch Sect.

Jiang Cheng also lived up to expectations, and was promoted to the third realm of the six grades at a young age, and was recognized as a candidate for the next Holy Lord of the Heavenly Witch Sect.

Dao Tong hurriedly went down to make arrangements and assigned people to inform Jiang Cheng, who was practicing in the mountains.

Di Renjie's official document shook the entire Huainan and Jiangnan officialdom. Those forces hidden in the shadows have paid attention to this battle between the imperial court and the Yue Wangfu and the Tianwu Sect, judging the unresolved situation and choosing the future strategy.

Outside the city of Yangzhou, above Shugang, into the elephant garden.

"You're back?" Wang Xu held a chess piece, looked at the chessboard, and said softly.

"Oh, sir." Wang Kun said respectfully.

Wang Xu didn't say anything more, contemplating in front of the intricate chessboard.

Chengxiangyuan is the villa of "Sword Spirit" Wang Xu in Yangzhou, close to the mountain and the city, close to the canal, next to the Daming Temple, there is spring water, sweet and delicious, famous far and near. Since the Great Sui Dynasty destroyed the Southern Chen, Jiankang was destroyed and the economic center of gravity and political center of the south were moved to Yangzhou, and a wealthy family also bought property in Yangzhou.

"What's the matter with you?" After a long time, Wang Xu asked.

"The imperial court found out that Li Zhen, the king of Yue, had trained soldiers and horses privately, and it is estimated that the imperial court will soon attack Li Zhen." Wang Kun said.

Wang Kun told Wang Xu about Li Rong's trip to Caizhou and disturbing the palace and the camp.

"The tiger father has no dogs, I am not as good as Li Hui!" Wang Xu put away the chess pieces and said.

Wang Kun looked embarrassed, he was Wang Xu's son, he was already a six-grade master at a young age, no matter how he said it, he couldn't be worse than Li Rong, but in his father's eyes, it was not worth mentioning.

"Are you not convinced?" Wang Xu turned to Wang Kun and said.

"My son doesn't dare," Wang Kun bowed his head and said, "But according to the people in the Yue Palace, Li Rong was severely injured by the masters of the Royal Mansion and his life was not long. ”

"Hmph, isn't he dead from serious injuries? Can you escape from the Heavenly Witch Sect's Holy Maiden Seven-Rank Grandmaster Zhou Xuan'er? Wang Xu said.

"Children can't," Wang Kun said.

Facing the Seven-Rank Grandmaster, Wang Kun didn't dare to say that he could escape smoothly, not to mention that the other party was a master in the Demon Gate.

"It's really a tiger father and a dog," Wang Xu shook his head and said.

In his eyes, Wang Kun just followed the footsteps of his predecessors, did not dare to deviate, did not have his own ideas and ideas, only knew that according to the gourd to draw a scoop, it was the limit to be able to be promoted to the sixth grade.

"Tianji Martial Sword" is broad and profound, and it is by no means the kind of martial arts that can be reached to the top by just following the rules, on the contrary, it has great room for development for future generations to continue to explore.

Two days later, Di Renjie's official document reached Yangzhou. After Wang Xu heard the news, he called Wang Kun.

"You will go to Yuezhou today and invite your Uncle Lu to come to Yangzhou!" Wang Xu couldn't help but say authentic.

"Uncle Lu, please?" Wang Kun said.

He also knew Di Renjie's official document, but he didn't understand what this court document for the Tianwu Sect had to do with his own family and the Lu family?

This Uncle Lu is the master "Thousand Cranes" Lu Yuze, who is on the list.

"If you are told to go, you will go, and let Lu Ying come with you!" Wang Xu said.

"Lu Ying?" Wang Kun said reluctantly.

"Why are you ashamed to meet people if you are not as good as others?" Wang Xu said sarcastically.

Lu Ying is Lu Yuze's only daughter, the first master of the younger generation of the Lu family, much more powerful than Wang Kun, and bullied Wang Kun a lot when she was a child.

"Yes, boy, let's go." Wang Kun said.

With that, Wang Kun hurriedly turned around and left.

"It's a pity that Kun'er's temperament and qualifications are far from Lu Xiaoni." Wang Xu sighed.

Langya Wang and Wujun Lu are both Jiangzuo's first-class families, and they have been marrying continuously for generations, it is said that Wang Kun and Lu Ying's family background is comparable, and martial arts are suitable objects. It's just that Lu Ying's qualifications are too rebellious, with the posture of a grandmaster, not Wang Kun can be compared.

At this time, the Yangzhou Governor's Mansion was also in a mess because of Di Renjie's writings, some of them were appreciative, and some were frowning and speechless.

Gong Pengzu, who was the governor of Yangzhou at the time, sat in the study and frowned and sighed from time to time, not knowing what to do with this official document.

At the age of fifty, Gong Pengzu's hair has turned gray, and he is not as chic and comfortable as before.

The people in the south of the Yangtze River are fierce, the power of the family is numerous, and it is not easy to govern, and there are forces such as Li Zhen, the king of Yue, Tianwuzong, etc., who interfere in political affairs, making Gong Pengzu not go well, and he is trying to maintain it.

Speaking of which, Gong Pengzu was able to serve as the governor of Yangzhou, which was also given by Wu Zetian. The Gong family has been an official eunuch for generations, and is deeply valued by Wu Zetian, and he was transferred from Puzhou Thorn History to Yangzhou Governor Shi, the de facto leader of Huainan Province. The governor of Yangzhou has always been a fictitious position, and it was held by princes and nobles, and Changshi became the head of the civil officials of Huainan Province.

In the eyes of Gong Pengzu, the disappearance of Gongfu can be blocked and the news can be found slowly, he has already secretly written to Wu Zetian, detailing the loss of Gongfu, and said that he will try his best to track down and recover the loss. However, as Di Renjie said, making a big move will inevitably upset the peaceful situation and is not conducive to the rule.

Di Renjie's decision to arrest people and demolish the temple will definitely force the Tianwu Sect to resist, in case they collude with the ill-intentioned King Yue, the consequences will not be simply some tribute losses can be replaced.

Just when Gong Pengzu was worried about Di Renjie's official document, Jiang Baiqing, the Holy Lord of the Heavenly Witch Sect, was alone late at night, with fluttering white clothes, as if walking against the wind, and came to a mass grave outside Stone City.

The moon shines in the night sky, the desolate lonely grave under the moon, the ghost fire between the graves is green, fluttering in the wind, but there is no ordinary small insect hissing in the wild grass, and the silence is abnormal.

"Brother Dao, Bai Qing is visiting!" Jiang Baiqing walked through the lonely grave and came to a nameless low grave, and said loudly, "Disturb Brother Dao Qingxiu!" ”

"What are you coming from?" There was a human voice from the tomb, and the voice had a metallic trill, which made people sound quite ugly, and they couldn't help but churn with blood.

"The White Lotus Society's joint government has attacked my sect, and I want to ask Brother Dao to take action to contain Sword Spirit Wang Xu," Jiang Baiqing said.

"Sword Spirit" Wang Xu has a noble identity, not only the first contemporary master of the Langya Wang family, but also one of the nine lotuses of the White Lotus Society, presiding over the daily affairs of the White Lotus Society.

"The Coalition Mansion?" The man in the tomb said, "You angered Wu Zetian? ”

The person in the tomb is also an old fox who has been practicing for many years, and he can infer many things from Jiang Baiqing's words. It is said that the Tianwu Sect, as a member of the Demon Gate, asked the current Demon Gate co-leader Wu Zetian to take action in the face of the attacks of the two sects of Buddhism and Taoism, but he came to find him, thinking that there was another reason for it.

"Hmph," Jiang Baiqing said with a flash of red anger on his face, "Wu Zetian is busy clearing the clan and seizing Li Tang Jiangshan, can he take care of the interests of our Demon Sect factions?" The White Lotus Society has fallen into the ground, and there is a great tendency to eradicate our sect, and the Jiangnan Wang family and the Lu family will also stand happily to watch the excitement, or even get a piece of the pie, after all, now the Tang Dynasty is the world of northerners, and they can't take advantage of the court, so they want to fight in the nest and take food from us. ”

"I don't want to care about your grudges." The man in the grave said.

"Brother Dao, without the resources provided by my Heavenly Witch Sect, your cultivation path would be so easy to follow, and it would not be beautiful if you are too arrogant." Jiang Baiqing said threateningly.

The Heavenly Witch Sect and the Heavenly Corpse Sect to which the people in the tomb belong are both Demon Sect sects, but the Heavenly Corpse Sect has always been sparsely populated, not to mention a single lineage, it is almost the same, and because of the peculiarity of the cultivation method, they don't like to appear in the world. The Heavenly Witch Sect asked the Heavenly Corpse Sect masters for assistance when they had something to do.
