Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Ancestral Hall

Knowing that Liu Jizong finally escaped, Zhang Xiao couldn't help frowning, but then he thought about it, the other party has now reached the realm of the grandmaster, and he is even much stronger than Liu Jihui, and it is normal for such a thing to happen, so he was relieved.

Only the sentence left by the other party when he left, although Zhang Xiao cared, he was not very worried, in this way, the other party would definitely show up again, and there would always be a chance at that time.

Several grievances must be recovered, this is true for Liu Jizong, and it is the same for the Heavenly Demon Gate.

At this time, Zhang Xiao raised his head and looked at Liu Jihui and Xia Yingli standing in front of him, the two had just finished reporting the specific situation, but they hadn't had time to rest.

"Jihui, I heard that you were injured, is there any situation now?"

Hearing Zhang Xiao's question, Liu Jihui shook his head, but when he saw the other party's sincere eyes, he suddenly felt a little self-blamed.

"Thank you Pavilion Master for your concern, it's just some skin trauma, it's not a big deal. After speaking, Liu Jihui looked at Zhang Xiao, his fists clenched for a while, and his expression seemed to have some resentment, "Pavilion master, it's all my fault, if I hadn't been rash, didn't report it, and insisted on going my own way, I wouldn't have gotten away from my brother in the end...... He, Pavilion Master, please punish me, no matter what way, I am willing to bear it on one shoulder!"

After speaking, Liu Jihui knelt on one knee and lowered his head, obviously having made up his mind, just waiting for Zhang Xiaofa to fall.

Zhang Xiao looked at him, smiled slightly, and after a little silence, he stepped forward from behind the table.

He stood in front of Liu Jihui, then stretched out his hand and pressed it on the top of the latter's head, but there was no trace of anger on his face at this time.

"Jihui, if you can do this, it is actually very difficult for you, and you can always adhere to righteousness, and you can even kill relatives and assume responsibilities with righteousness, so why should I punish you?"

"But ......"

Such a result was really a bit unexpected by Liu Jihui, he only felt that the matter fell short, all because of his own willfulness, but at this time, Zhang Xiao didn't plan to let him continue to talk about it.

"Okay, at this moment, you don't want to continue to be stubborn, and I don't want to spend too much energy on this matter, do you understand? If you understand, then stand up for me, and then hold your chest up!"

Zhang Xiao can be regarded as having grown up watching Liu Jihui since he was a child, in fact, he understands the other party's personality better, and also knows that he is stubborn and strong, so at this time, the attitude is tough and serious, but it can make the other party's psychology more acceptable.

Sure enough, after listening to Zhang Xiao's words, Liu Jihui really stood up, he straightened his chest, his body stood straight, and his body was imposing, as if he had changed his appearance compared with before.

Zhang Xiao nodded, smiled and patted Liu Jihui's shoulder, and then looked back at Firefly.

"I heard that you saved Jihui from Liu Jizong's sword and cut off the opponent's sword, so it seems that what kind of strength is the other party now, if you really fight with him, what are the chances of winning?"

Hearing Zhang Xiao's question, Firefly pondered for a while, and there was a clear outline in her heart.

"Although I cut off his sword weapon, he didn't do it with all his strength at that time, which can't be used as a reference, it's just that he can easily defeat Jihui, and he can still retreat in that situation, at least he must have the strength of the Grandmaster Middle Realm, or rather, only strong and not weak!"

Hearing such a judgment, Zhang Xiao nodded, and he roughly got it in his heart.

"What is the win?"

"If I only seek the number of winners and losers, I can't decide, but if I am asked to take his life, I am 100% sure!"

Hearing this, Liu Jihui was taken aback, but seeing that Firefly had a solemn expression, it didn't seem to be a lie, so he was even more Ling Ran in his heart.

He has fought with Liu Jizong, and he also understands that the other party is stronger than himself, but he has never had a clear feeling for Firefly's means, and now when he hears these remarks, he didn't expect the other party's strength to be so strong, so it seems that the gap between himself and her is really not a star and a half!

After listening to Firefly's words, Zhang Xiao couldn't help laughing, and he didn't question the other party's words.

"Okay, I've worked hard for you, after dealing with Yan Shicong in a while, you can go back and rest first, if there are other things, I am sending someone to talk to you. ”

As soon as Zhang Xiao's voice fell, at this time, He Mingdu's figure walked in from outside the door.

"Pavilion Master, everything is ready, and all the disciples in the door are also counted. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Xiao nodded, and then walked out of the door, and Liu Jihui behind him also walked out of the door with He Mingdu.

A group of four people went straight to the ancestral hall of the Sword Pavilion, and at this time, outside the ancestral hall, there were already many disciples of the Sword Pavilion.

Zhang Xiao walked straight into the ancestral hall, while He Mingdu and the other three consciously stopped, and then stood at the front of the crowd.

On the ancestral hall, enshrine the spiritual seat of the previous pavilion masters of the Sword Pavilion, arranged in order from top to bottom, in the hall, the three elders of Kang, Shi and Xing are waiting on both sides, and among the three, Yan Elder Yan Shicong is lying on the ground, and his body is tied up by people, just like a zongzi.

Elder Yan's wound had already been bandaged, but because of excessive bleeding, his face was still pale, and his body was arched at this time, lying on his side on the ground, his eyes were closed, and he was still unconscious.

Before Zhang Xiao walked to the spiritual seat of the previous pavilion masters, he first put on a stick of incense, and after worshipping, he retreated to Elder Yan's side.

He glanced at Elder Yan, but at this time, he smiled coldly.

"Yan Shicong, what else can't you face now, since you dare to betray the Sword Pavilion, how can you not face the Heavenly Spirits of the Pavilion Masters of the past dynasties?"

After Zhang Xiao finished speaking, the air fell silent for a while, and after a while, Elder Yan slowly opened his eyes.

He first glanced at Zhang Xiao, and then snorted coldly.

"Untie him. ”

Hearing Zhang Xiao's words, two disciples immediately stepped forward to untie the rope for Elder Yan, and now that Zhang Xiao was here, everyone was not worried that Elder Yan would escape at all.

After loosening the tie, Elder Yan sat up, first rubbing his arm before looking at Zhang Xiao again.

"Zhang Xiao, so far, I, Yan Shicong, have nothing to say, die in your hands, the old man admits to planting, if you want to kill or chop, listen to the respect, but if you want to humiliate the old man, you are delusional!"

Hearing Yan Shicong's words, Zhang Xiao smiled slightly, still with an excellent temper.

"Elder Yan, the last time I called you like this, I think you were back then, and you also made a lot of meritorious contributions for the Sword Pavilion, and you can be regarded as a meritorious person of the Sword Pavilion, but it's a pity that you went astray and participated in the murder of fellow disciples, causing trouble to the Sword Pavilion, and the merits and demerits cannot be offset, but for the sake of your merits, I allow you to judge yourself before the spiritual position of the pavilion masters of the past dynasties, and it can be regarded as using this matter to set an example!"

After speaking, as soon as Zhang Xiao stretched out his hand, he threw a long sword on the ground, and when he heard a crisp sound, Elder Yan's heart couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Looking at the long sword, and then looking up at the spiritual positions of the previous pavilion masters, Elder Yan's body trembled, and his eyes suddenly blurred.

"If you don't have a disciple, you are ashamed of the sect!"

After saying this, Elder Yan picked up the long sword and put it on his shoulder, and in front of everyone's eyes, a sword slashed his throat.

Blood sprayed all over the ground, and Elder Yan immediately rolled over and fell to the ground, never moving again.

The disciples were silent, and the three elders were even more silent.

Zhang Xiao raised his head, closed his eyes, and let out a long breath.

"Carry Elder Yan's body down and bury it alive!"

The two disciples walked into the ancestral hall and carried Elder Yan's body away, and on the floor, apart from blood, only the long sword that Elder Yan had killed himself was left.

Zhang Xiao picked up the long sword, held it in his hand and looked at it, only to see that blood was flowing down the blade.

"From today onwards, the House of Elders will be officially dissolved, and the affairs of the Pavilion Master will be handled by He Mingdu and Qi Xuanhui, but can anyone object?"
