Chapter 216: Cutting the Weeds and Eradicating the Roots
Shi Shentian also won Cangling's trust, and many things began to be handed over to Shi Shentian to do, and Shi Shentian was able to handle everything well, and over time, Cangling simply stopped presiding over some things, and left it to Shi Shentian to do.
Later, Shi Shentian still bears the name of the city lord of the Eastern Imperial City, but his actual residence has already come to the capital Tianyang City, and the entire affairs of Dacang are handled by him, and the Eastern Imperial City is managed by his son Shi Yushan.
The city lords of the four cities in the east, west, north and south of Dacang were originally on an equal footing, but Shi Fallen, as the city lord of the Eastern Imperial City, was on a steady footing, and naturally received a lot of criticism, and later Wu Lie, the city lord of Xilie City, united with Qingcheng, the city lord of Nanyou City, and Han Ba, the city lord of Northern Cold City, to resist Shi Falling's management together, and was finally directly suppressed by Cangling.
Later, Shi Meteorita gradually gained everyone's recognition for his work, and he also knew that the reason behind it was because Cangling was quite a handshaker, and Shi Meteorita was the strongest among the four city lords, and the other three city lords gradually accepted his command.
After Cangling left from Shiluotian, he went to Xilie City, South Youcheng and Northern Cold City one after another, and finally set off from Northern Cold City and flew straight in the direction of the Ming Sword Sect.
Dadu Tianyang City, the top of a towering mountain peak, in a pavilion near the cliff, Nie Yuan held a black chess piece in his hand and gently placed it on the chessboard, no one played against him on the opposite side of the chess game, but there was a man standing next to him, the man was bewitching, and if he didn't look carefully, he thought it was a woman, it was the enchanting man who led the team to participate in the trial on Land Demon Island, Red Lotus.
Nie Yuan said to Red Lotus: "You also know that Tianyin is actually not very willing to manage the forces of the Eastern Imperial City, and the management of Feilai Feng in the Eastern Imperial City is sooner or later you and Bian Chen's, and now Bian Chen is internal, you are external, and the two of you should support each other." ”
Honglian hurriedly knelt down on the ground and said: "My subordinates don't dare, my results in this trial are not as good as Bian Chen, even if I let Bian Chen do it, I don't have any opinion, not to mention that Bian Chen's own strength is indeed above me." ”
Nie Yuan said: "Okay, let's not talk about this, I have another thing, I heard that the old stubborns of the Sword Sect are acting as demons again, ready to make a comeback?" ”
Honglian said: "I just heard about it, but in this trial on the Land Demon Island, the first place is indeed a famous sword cultivator, what is it called, Lin Yang." ”
"Lin Yang ......" Nie Yuan repeated the name, and after a while, Nie Yuan said: "Go and inform the four city lords, come to me to discuss the next countermeasures, it's really troublesome, you shouldn't have been coerced by the lord of Cang in the first place, if you directly cut the grass and eradicate the roots, where are these troubles now." ”
Red Lotus led the order to leave quickly, Nie Yuan dropped a chess piece in his hand, looked at the situation on the chessboard, and said to himself: "If you take a breath, it is possible to turn the table, and this breath can not be left any longer." ”
Nie Yuan laughed when he saw this, and when he was laughing, he accidentally touched the chessboard, and the chess piece next to him was knocked down by him, and the white chess pieces were directly sprinkled on the chessboard, and the chess game was rushed to pieces.
Seeing this, Nie Yuan immediately became angry, smashed the chessboard with one palm, and then laughed and walked away.
……
Ming Sword Sect, in front of the wooden house on the top of the mountain, Lin Yang and Bingchen sat next to each other in front of the tea table, and opposite them was Lin Yang's master Jin Feng.
Jin Feng filled a cup of tea for Lin Yang and the others: "It can be seen that you have grown a lot in this trial, and you have reached the middle stage of the divine transformation, which is better than the results I expected, so I have a lot of confidence in next year's competition." ”
Lin Yang said: "Thank you master for compliment, these are all good teachings from the master, I have only been gone for about a year, our Ming Sword Sect is like a different sect, over time, we will definitely be able to recover the glory of the Ming Sword Sect." ”
When Jin Feng heard this, his expression was indifferent and said: "It's a good thing and a bad thing, the good thing is that we can cultivate a batch of sword cultivators, and it will attract more sword cultivators to come, the disadvantage is that we are likely to have attracted the attention of the two major forces, if they come together again, we will definitely not be able to withstand it." ”
Jin Feng's words, the originally relaxed atmosphere suddenly became heavy, Lin Yang didn't dare to imagine what a big battle it was back then, but he had seen the ruin state of the Ming Sword Sect, if it was really again, it was very likely that they would change back to the ruin state again, and even the last spark could not be kept.
For a while, the entire courtyard was silent.
At this moment, a fluorescence came from far and near, and came to the three of Jinfeng in an instant, Lin Yang immediately stood up when he saw this, he seemed to have seen this scene somewhere, there was an inexplicable familiarity, but when he saw the person, he shook his head, because he didn't know the person at all.
Jin Feng and Bingchen turned pale, and slowly stood up from their seats with fists in their hands, and the person opposite was Cangling, the leader of one of the forces that had almost wiped out the Ming Sword Sect, Cangzhu.
Cangling was not annoyed when she saw this, she came straight to the three of them, pulled a small bamboo stool and sat down by herself, and then consciously poured herself a cup of tea, as if she was the owner here.
Cangling's operation, the three Jinfeng people who watched looked at each other, this woman wouldn't be passing by and hungry to ask for food.
Cangling drank the tea in the cup in one go, and then looked at Jinfeng and the others: "First of all, I am not here to be hostile, secondly, you may encounter danger, and finally, we are willing to help you." ”
When Jin Feng heard this, he immediately said angrily: "Why should I believe you, if it weren't for you and Feilaifeng conspiring to attack us, how could we have fallen to this point......
Jin Feng wanted to say something, but was stopped by Cangling directly waving his hand, Cangling said: "I can't change the past, but I know that if it weren't for the old Cang Master of our family, the Ming Sword Sect would have been wiped out a long time ago, where is there still today where you are here to question me." ”
When Jin Feng heard this, he was also stunned, and suddenly reminded him of a very strange scene at that time.
At that time, the two forces joined forces to kill the Ming Sword Sect, and the Ming Sword Sect was caught off guard by the other party without preparation, and it was about to kill the entire Ming Sword Sect in the end, but at the last moment, the two forces withdrew at the same time, and for hundreds of years, the sword cultivation was only Feilai Peak, and Dacang didn't seem to be very concerned.
Jin Feng has always been unable to figure out these points, since the two forces have done this thing, why don't they go further to kill them all, why do they still keep a few of them, is it really related to the original Cang Lord?
Thinking of this, the anger in Jinfeng's whole body eased slightly, and his eyes stared straight at Cangling, who knew that he wanted an explanation, so he stopped beating around the bush and told the truth directly.
It turned out that Dacang was also bewitched at the beginning, indicating that the Sword Sect secretly united with other forces, and wanted to gradually clear the forces of Dacang and Feilaifeng from the Dacang Empire, and the old Cang Lord Cangxuan didn't believe it at first, but then there were several attacks on the Dacang forces, all of which caused a lot of losses, and at this time, the people of Feilaifeng made an appointment to attack the Ming Sword Sect together, and Cangxuan took all the elites of the Dacang to attack the Ming Sword Sect in a fit of anger.
Dacang united with Feilai Peak to attack the Ming Sword Sect, the original Ming Sword Sect was much larger than now, even so, the two major forces were like bamboos along the way, directly attacking the main peak of the Ming Sword Sect, and the flesh and blood flowed everywhere they passed.
Cangxuan finally found out that something was wrong, so he caught a few people and began to inquire constantly, and even finally killed Lilac's father, and no one admitted to the death that the Ming Sword Sect wanted to harm other forces, and the sword cultivators generally preferred to bend rather than disdain to lie, and one by one the sword cultivators proved themselves with their own deaths, and finally Cangxuan finally determined that he was bewitched, and went back to find the peak master of the Flying Peak, Panlong, and asked to stop the pursuit of the Ming Sword Sect.
Panlong saw that the goal was about to be reached, where would he ignore Cangxuan's request, and led everyone to continue to chase and kill the people of the Ming Sword Sect, Cangxuan suddenly woke up but it was too late, and finally fought with Panlong, and finally died together.
The two leaders died, the dragons were leaderless, the people on both sides were unwilling to continue the battle, and they withdrew from the territory of the Ming Sword Sect, and then Cangling became the master of the Great Cang Empire, and Nie Yuan became the peak master of Feilai Peak, the forces of both sides were evenly matched, and they both belonged to the sphere of influence of Wujimen, and they didn't want to create a big killing, and finally the two sides reached an agreement that they should no longer chase and kill the people of the Ming Sword Sect, and Nie Yuan agreed when he saw that the Ming Sword Sect existed in name only.
Dacang and Feilaifeng, the forces of the two sides have been at odds with each other since then, and they are at peace on the surface, but the open and secret battles in private have been continuing.
After knowing these things, Jin Feng still couldn't fully believe it, but his feelings over the years were basically the same as what Cangling said, before, whether it was Dacang or Feilaifeng, if any strength wanted to erase these few people from the Ming Sword Sect, it would still be very easy to do it, but no one in the Ming Sword Sect had paid attention to it all these years, which gave them a chance to breathe.
But recently, the Ming Sword Sect once again faced the same situation, if Feilai Peak attacked and killed, with their current strength, it would not be enough for Feilai Peak to fight.
Jin Feng raised his head and said to Cangling: "How do you judge that Feilai Peak is going to do something to us again, if they really want to do it to us, how can you help us?" ”
Hearing this, Cangling immediately said: "That's right, the things of the previous generation should not have been brought to our generation, but the hatred of the sect must not be forgotten, the old Cang Lord did make a mistake first, the rat Ah he finally reined in the precipice, realized his mistake in time, and sacrificed himself to save a few of you, which can be regarded as accumulating a merit for himself." ”
"As for how I knew that Nie Yuan was going to continue to attack you, this is my intuition, or rather, with my understanding of him, with his style, I will never give you another chance this time, because you have begun to recover, and he will never allow another force of the same level to appear around him."
Lin Yang nodded, if what Cangling said was no problem, Nie Yuan would definitely not let go of the Ming Sword Sect so easily, the reason was just as Cangling said, he would never have another existence around him that could threaten him, if they attacked again this time, they would definitely not give the Ming Sword Sect any more chances, cutting the grass without eradicating the roots, the spring breeze blows and grows, he will not understand this truth.
