Chapter 54: Crisis

As Zhou Lu said.

It's not just him.

Including all sects, they will not follow Xiao Changning's advice.

Even if his suggestion was indeed useful, they would never approve of it.

After all, this is a matter of their sect's face.

Once such a thing happens, their various sects will become a joke in Nanli Continent and even in the entire Qingwei Realm.

Nobody wants to be a joke.

Sometimes, there is something.

More important than their lives.

For example, dignity, such as faith.

So.

They will not bow their heads to Xia Fan.

What's more, they can't really help Xia Fan.

As long as they were given a chance, they would have a way to kill Xia Fan.

Compromise, accept softness, admit mistakes?

Inexistent.

If Xia Fan knew their choice, he would definitely give a thumbs up.

I like you to be so hard!

"Xiao Daoyou, Poor Dao knows that your Cangyuan Sect has always been far-sighted, whether it was to join hands to destroy the Jinyang Sect and plot to seize the Nether Realm, or in dealing with this person outside the territory and that matter, your Cangyuan Sect can be said to be thoughtful, and the meaning of the poor Dao Xiao Daoyou is very clear, we put aside other things for the time being, Poor Dao just wants to know, do you Cangyuan Sect still uphold the attitude of staying out of the matter when dealing with people outside the territory?"

After Zhou Lu calmed down, he stared at Xiao Changning with a serious expression, and asked without any disguise.

"Zhou Daoyou, what do you mean?"

In the face of Zhou Lu's aggressive attitude, Xiao Changning still said calmly.

"We need your Cangyuan Sect's statement and support. ”

Zhou Lu said directly.

"Zhou Daoyou thinks that even if our Cangyuan Sect agrees to your conditions, in the end, do you really have a way to help that person from outside the territory?"

Xiao Changning glanced at Zhou Lu deeply.

"The ideal of fighting a snake without dying, but suffering from it, must be understood by fellow Daoists. ”

"Xiao Daoyou doesn't need to worry about this matter, I have already thought about the things that should be considered. ”

Zhou Lu said in a calm tone.

"The road is not easy, I hope Zhou Daoyou will think twice. ”

Xiao Changning suddenly said something inexplicable.

"What does Xiao Daoyou mean by this?"

Zhou Lu frowned.

"I promise you the conditions of each sect, and I will let Zhenlin discuss the specific matters with you carefully when the time comes. ”

After speaking.

Xiao Changning closed his eyes.

The meaning of sending off customers is already very obvious.

"Since this is the case, Poor Dao will not disturb Xiao Daoyou's Qing Xiu. ”

Zhou Lu immediately got up and left the cave without hesitation.

"Master, how is the negotiation going?"

After Zhou Lu returned to the team.

Tong Baili stepped forward and asked cautiously almost immediately.

"Cang Yuanzong has already agreed to our conditions, but there is another important matter that needs to be dealt with as a teacher. ”

Zhou Lu said with a heavy heart.

Since leaving Xiao Changning's cave mansion.

He had been a little uneasy.

On the one hand, what did Xiao Changning's last sentence mean.

On the other hand, it is the incident mentioned by Xiao Changning.

What is so worthy of Zhou's attention?

Something to do with demons, of course.

Although the human monks and demons have been at war for 10,000 years.

But it is clear to each other that peace is temporary.

This war will never stop until one side has completely eliminated the other.

After all, this is a war between two races.

As for whether humans and demons can coexist peacefully?

In fact, a long, long time ago, someone in the Qingwei world had already raised this question.

It turned out to be.

No.

Because most demons are brutal and murderous by nature.

Even if there are good demons among demons, the problem will still be prejudiced and hostile in such an environment.

Not only humans, but even the demons themselves.

Coupled with the fact that neither humans nor demons have been fighting for an unknown number of years, the factor of hatred has long been carved into their bones.

Peace?

Just think about it.

Now, 10,000 years have passed.

After such a long period of recuperation.

The demons entrenched in various places have already begun to move.

Although the demon still maintains overall restraint on the surface, there are constant small frictions in private.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows it.

It was a harbinger of war.

It's just that no one knows when the war will break out.

As a powerful sect in Nanlizhou.

Cang Yuanzong shouldered the responsibility of monitoring the movements of demons in their respective regions.

This is the responsibility of every major sect.

According to the content of Xiao Changning's jade slip.

This time.

The demons in their area suddenly became more active in the dark.

Cang Yuanzong found out when he contacted other major sects.

It's not just the area they monitor.

A similar situation has also occurred in the areas monitored by other major sects.

As a result, it naturally attracted the attention of the major sects.

After some careful investigation.

Cang Yuanzong discovered.

Originally.

There are demons from Damang Mountain who are connecting demons from all over the world.

In order to find out the news.

Cangyuan Sect has paid a lot of price.

Because they have lost an important piece of work that has been planted in the demon community.

This fine work is still a demon.

You must know that most of the demons are unruly and untamable, and they are mortal enemies with humans.

You can imagine how difficult it is to cultivate a demon to work hard.

But the sacrifice of this demon was worth it.

News from Hosaku.

The demons from Damang Mountain have already contacted many demon leaders from all over the country, and they are suspected of making overall arrangements for the future war in advance, as for the specific content, it is not for the demons of this level to know.

It's just enough to know the news.

Now that he knew that the demons were preparing to make a big move, this undoubtedly gave the Cangyuan Sect all sects time and preparation to prepare for the battle, so as to avoid catching the demons off guard at that time.

Future wars together.

The whole of Nanlizhou will be devastated.

All human monks and sects will inevitably be involved in this war.

For Zhou Lu and other sects.

This momentous news was like a bolt from the blue.

They are not afraid to fight demons.

Here's the problem.

They are still facing a human immortal warrior who is hiding in the shadows and may be unfavorable to them at any time.

Do they want to restrain him in the name of righteousness, and it is better not to mess with the war between humans and demons in the future?

But people are people from other realms.

It's not from your Qingwei realm.

Their righteousness is of no use to him.

It's like taking down the righteousness of the Nether Realm to persuade them.

But will they listen?

The answer is self-explanatory.

But.

There are two sides to everything.

Although there will be a big war in the future, Xia Fan may indeed backstab them.

But all of their sects are fighting for the sake of human beings, and the other sects will definitely not sit idly by when they know about it.

And so it goes.

Xia Fan will become the public enemy of all sects.

Other sects will not pay attention to the conflicts on weekdays, after all, this is a personal feud between the two.

But on such a vital question of right and wrong as the survival of mankind, all other issues must be put aside, otherwise anyone who stands in the way will become their enemy.

"Are they gone?"

this day.

Qiu Zhenlin came to Xiao Changning's cave mansion with a respectful attitude.

Didn't wait for him to speak.

Xiao Changning took the lead in asking.

"Back to the ancestors, they have left this morning. ”

Qiu Zhenlin said truthfully.

"What about Xia Fan?"

Xiao Changning kept his eyes closed and did not open his eyes.

"Chai Shizu will come forward to take charge of this matter. ”

Autumn Forest Road.

"Chai Zhao, he has always had a calm personality, and it is indeed appropriate to leave this matter to him, but when the time comes, tell him for me, and try not to be too proactive in dealing with Xia Fan. ”

Xiao Changning commanded seemingly casually.

"Yes, Master, do you have any other instructions?"

Qiu Zhenlin said in a deep voice.

"No, but you seem to have a question for me, Zhenlin. ”

Xiao Changning said softly.

"I can't hide it from my ancestor, and the disciple does have some doubts in his heart. ”

Qiu Zhenlin said without concealment.

"It's still about Xia Fan, right?"

Xiao Changning chuckled.

"Yes. ”

Qiu Zhenlin sighed lightly.

"If you can't understand it, don't force yourself if you can't figure it out. Xiao Changning slowly opened his eyes and looked at Qiu Zhenlin Dao, who was slightly confused in front of him. "Because I can't understand him anymore. ”

"Master?"

Qiu Zhenlin's eyes widened.

"I don't mean it's his disposition, it's something else. ”

Xiao Changning said in a leisurely tone.

"I thought that he would converge for a long time after coming to the Qingwei Realm, but the clinker thing is just the opposite, instead of restraining, he changed his normal state and became more and more radical, from a martial saint to a human immortal, I didn't expect him to take less than ten years, which is unheard of in the Qingwei Realm or other realms. ”

The disciple was also incredulous when he heard about this. ”

Qiu Zhenlin couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"It's no wonder that the master attaches so much importance to each other. ”

"Actually, at first, I just didn't want to have too much karma with him. ”

Xiao Changning said lightly.

"When you reach the Yuan Infant Realm in the future, you will know the importance of cause and effect for future cultivation. ”

"The disciple kept it in mind. ”

Qiu Zhenlin hurriedly said.

"Let's go back to Xia Fan, if he still maintains his previous cultivation speed, maybe in a thousand years, he will reach the point where everyone has to look up, and this is what worries me the most. ”

Xiao Changning said abruptly.

"That's why I restrain you, and even keep the sect from being an enemy of him, because I suspect that he may well be the reincarnation of some great power, otherwise it would not explain his various miracles. ”

"Mighty reincarnation?"

Qiu Zhenlin said with a shocked face in an instant.

"It's just my unfounded guess. ”

Xiao Changning shook his head and said.

"The disciple understood. ”

Qiu Zhenlin said with a heavy heart.

"Let's go back. ”

Xiao Changning closed his eyes again.

"Don't get the word out about it. ”

"Yes!"

After speaking.

Qiu Zhenlin bowed respectfully and then turned around and left the cave.

Meanwhile.

It is located in a small square city thousands of miles away from Cangyuan Sect.

Xia Fan sat in the corner of an open-air tea shop, drinking the inferior and cheap spiritual tea in the cup without taking a sip, while pricking up his ears and listening carefully to the conversations of the people around him.

This is something he learned specifically after knowing Jiao Liang's skills.

This skill is called "How to Analyze Really Valuable Information from a Large Number of Complicated Invalid Information"

Although Xia Fan is far inferior to Jiao Liang in this regard, this does not mean that he is doing useless work.

In fact, after he followed Zhou Lu and others all the way to the sphere of influence under Cangyuanzong, he had been quietly inquiring about the situation of Cangyuanzong while Zhou Lu and them were communicating with Cangyuanzong.

He didn't dare to go too deep into Cangyuan Sect.

Because Cangyuan Sect has a large array of protectors.

What's more, he is now disguised as a little martial artist who is not even an innate great grandmaster.

He didn't want to expose himself easily.

In this small city.

Xia Fan stayed for a total of six days.

These six days were enough for him to find out a lot of useful information other than what Jiao Liang told him.

It's not that he doesn't believe in Jiao Liang.

Rather, there were things that he had to witness for himself.

For example, the specific location of the Cangyuan Sect, the distribution of forces, the strength of the sect, and so on.

So that there is an accurate understanding in the heart.

I have to say.

Cangyuanzong is indeed worthy of its name.

There are dozens of sects that are attached to the Cangyuan Sect alone, and they don't know how many miles of land they cover.

In the face of such a behemoth.

Even Xia Fan, who was a human immortal, did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

It is said that although Xuantianmen and other sects are inferior to Cangyuan Sect, the combined strength of these sects is even the strength of Cangyuan Sect.

Right now.

What Xia Fan offended was these sects that united against him.

If Cang Yuanzong also joins in.

Xia Fan's situation will be even more precarious.

No way.

Who made this their home turf?

Xia Fan, who was playing away, could only be as cautious as possible.

"Gone. ”

Calculate the time.

Half a day has passed since Zhou Lu and the others left Cangyuan Sect.

At this time, Xia Fan can continue to follow them and wait for an opportunity to make a move.

It's all about fate.

Anyway, he wasn't in a hurry.

After leaving the market casually.

Like Xia Fan, a little warrior whose realm is not high and has no money to spare.

Even if someone wants to kill people and take treasures, they can't look down on him.

So he's like a little transparent and unnoticed.

Obviously, he has a lot of treasure and money on him, but he can only pretend to be very poor in order to disguise.

Along.

Xia Fan followed very easily.

After all, Zhou Huan and the others used a flying magic weapon, and the speed did not seem to be fast.

If a Yuan Infant Realm monk like Zhou Lu hurried away.

Half a day.

Xia Fan didn't want to catch up even if he tried his best to eat.

"The slave family advises you that it is better not to continue chasing them. ”

When Xia Fan appeared in a lush forest, he was about to show the shrinkage of the ground again.

A coquettish voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Are you?!"

Xia Fan slammed into the prestige.

As a result, on a tall ancient tree not far away, I saw a stunning woman with a beautiful feather fan in her hand lying lazily on the branch, and at the same time gently squinted a pair of beautiful eyes with a smile like a fox.

"Bai Yuru, a slave, has seen a little brother from outside the territory. ”

"You're not human?"

Xia Fan looked at the stunning woman on the branch with a solemn face.

"Isn't the slave family really human?"

said.

A fluffy white tail suddenly flashed behind Bai Yuru.
