289, Seven Branches

Xiang Nantian pondered for a moment, and finally agreed with Shen Du's plan.

No way, that's the best way to do it right now.

The imperial court and martial arts have always been incompatible, and both sides do not like each other.

In Yan Kingdom, there are six gates, and although the martial arts sects in various places are often forbidden by martial arts, there is always a limit, and the various sects are also jealous.

But in Qianguo, the situation is just the opposite, the Qianguo court is too indulgent in martial arts, so that the martial arts people here have always not taken the imperial court in their eyes, let alone any prestige.

If the royal family of the Qianguo Kingdom had any prestige, it would not be occupied by the Yan State for nearly half of the country.

If this plan is successful, it will be another civil strife for the Qianguo, but for the Yan State, the loss is not large.

What was sent left and right was only the territory of some Qianguo's prefectures, and as long as a few important military towns were in their hands, the northern border would still be in their hands.

Xiang Nantian looked up at Shen Du and asked, "Do you have a target candidate in mind?" ”

Since Shen Du proposed this strategy, he should already have a plan in his heart.

Shen Du bowed slightly: "Seven Branches!" ”

One of the seven gangs in the world!

Nowadays, in the martial arts of the Qianguo, several larger sects have perished, Shaolin does not exist, Buddhism is weak, and the Qifentang can be said to be the most complete sect in terms of strength.

The rest of the sects all pursued "excellence", and the number of real disciples was not large, and the maximum number of disciples was only a few thousand.

But the seven gangs in the world are just the opposite, even the Giant Spirit Gang, which is at the bottom of the list, claims to have more than 10,000 gangs and a large number of people.

Of course, there are many people who have not even reached the acquired realm, but are just some people who know superficial martial arts.

At least the name of "helping more than 10,000 people" is loud enough, and in the ears of outsiders, it sounds very extraordinary.

The number of people in the seventh branch hall is much larger, and the number of people in the hall has reached a staggering 30,000.

As for the beggar gang, he didn't plan to stay, but it was difficult for this sect to be completely destroyed.

There are too many beggars in the world, I don't know how many people act in the name of beggars, and how many real beggars are hidden in them.

If he wants to be truly destroyed, it will be laborious and laborious, and it will not be cost-effective, so he will not be distracted by this.

The Seven Branches Hall was originally established by seven rivers and lakes reckless, under the name of Seven Points of the World, which can be described as a flourishing moment, and attracted a lot of rivers and lakes at that time.

In their minds, the Seven Branches Hall is a symbol in their reckless hearts, and it is also the faith in their hearts.

It is enough to prove that there is no good background, and it is enough to go far.

It's just that there are only three of the seven hall masters left in the current Seven Branches, and they have long since lost their former glory.

Even so, the Seven Branches are still powerful.

As long as the Seven Branches take the lead in this matter, then the rest of the factions will naturally follow suit.

Xiang Nantian looked deep and nodded, "The Seven Branches Hall is indeed a good target. ”

"But handing over the city to them, and then trying to take it back, is also a troublesome matter."

Ordinary Jianghu forces, even if the Qianguo Imperial Court is abolished, it has the ability to solve it, and this plan will lose its due effect.

They probably don't have the courage to go against the Qianguo court.

Only a force like the Seven Branches Hall will be fearless of the imperial court, and even face each other with the imperial court.

However, with the power of Qifentang, after eating things, it is difficult to make him spit it out.

Shen Du smiled lightly: "No matter how troublesome it is, it's better than handing it over to Qianguo, isn't it?" ”

There is only one seven-point church, and it can't set off any waves!

Xiang Nantian had a plan in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "In this case, then this matter will be handed over to you." ”

"If you need anything, please ask for it!"

Now that Shen Du has destroyed Shaolin and his prestige is flourishing, it is only fitting for him to go to the Qifentang to promote this matter.

At this moment, Shen Dingzhi, who realized it later, reacted, smiled with a smile on his face, and praised: "Wonderful! ”

"Haha!"

"That's a brilliant plan!"

Shen Dingzhi stroked his palms and laughed.

Shen Du glanced at Shen Dingzhi without a trace, and shook his head secretly.

The military talent of this son of the Duke of the Kingdom is indeed rare in the world, but in other things, it is indeed a little worse.

Xiang Nantian pulled out a strange smile on his cold face, glanced at Shen Dingzhi, shook his head and said: "General Shen, you will be in charge of receiving the envoys of Western Chu and the Qianguo, you don't have to agree to them, just drag it out." ”

As long as Shen Du's side succeeds, they will be able to knock another hard blow on the Qianguo royal family.

Since it is a peace negotiation, it is natural to show some "sincerity".

……

Above the official road,

A carriage galloped away, kicking up billowing smoke and dust.

The driver who drove the car was Liang Yuan, a strong man of law.

Inside the carriage, Shen Du leaned on the tiger skin seat, dressed in an ink-colored unicorn robe, his eyes were closed, and there was a trace of cold murder between his eyebrows.

On the side of the carriage, Tu Xuan of the Demon Music Sect held the pipa in her arms, and her slender jade fingers gently plucked it, playing a song of breaking the formation.

Shen Du went to the Qifen Hall on this trip, and only took these two people.

Tu Xuan played with the pipa, and from time to time she gently glanced at Shen Du, who had closed her eyes, and her gaze quickly swept over his face.

Since she came to Nan'an City, she hasn't even seen Shen Du's face.

If it weren't for the people from the Six Doors who conveyed Shen Du's order, she would have thought that Shen Du had rejected the Demon Yin Sect's surrender.

I hadn't seen her for many days, but now he suddenly called her to the Seventh Branch.

This kind of behavior made her more and more unable to understand this world-famous genius.

Shen Du's index finger lightly tapped his thigh, and said lightly: "Let's talk about the Great Heavenly Demon Palace." ”

Tu Xuan was stunned at first, but quickly reacted, and her movements in her hands froze.

"Don't stop!"

Shen Du's index finger was still tapping his knee rhythmically, and his eyes were lowered.

"Go on!"

"Keep playing!"

Tu Xuan played it again, and said softly, "I don't know what the adults want to ask about?" ”

"Let's start with the Great Heavenly Demon Palace." Shen Du said lightly: "What you know, and what is recorded in your Demon Yin Sect. ”

Hearing this, Tu Xuan thought for a moment, as if organizing words, and said softly: "Actually, we don't know much about the Great Heavenly Demon Palace. ”

"Although my Demon Yin Sect is a subordinate sect of the Great Heavenly Demon Palace Branch, it is not inherited, its ancestor was a disciple of the Demon Yin Sect at the beginning, and later established the Demon Yin Sect."

"Leave the ancestral training in the door, find the Great Heavenly Demon Palace, if there is a descendant of the Great Heavenly Demon Palace, all the disciples of the Demon Yin Sect must follow."

"At first, the Demon Yin Sect did adhere to the ancestral teachings, and also sent many people to look for the Great Heavenly Demon Palace, but in the end, it was all in vain, and over time, the door also extinguished this thought."

"Today, many people have almost forgotten the ancestral teachings."

"According to the ancient books left in the door, the original Great Heaven Demon Palace was one of the leaders of the Demon Dao, and there were countless strong people in the door, but later it suffered a great change in the world, and all the people in the door disappeared."

"Even many affiliated sects have died out together."

Shen Dumeng opened his eyes, his eyes bloomed with a ray of essence, and he said in a deep voice: "They should all be in the Cave Heaven Blessed Land, right?" ”

Tu Xuan nodded a little stunned.

"That's true!"

"The ancestor of my Demon Yin Sect was traveling abroad."

Speaking of this, Tu Xuan's face suddenly changed slightly, her pupils shrank, and a trace of fear appeared in her eyes.

She wasn't a stupid person and quickly figured out the key.

Shen Du tapped his index finger and said lightly: "It seems that if you really want to figure out all this, you have to start with the Cave Heaven Blessed Land." ”

It's just that the currently known Cave Heaven Blessed Land is relatively ordinary, and I don't know if there will be any new gains in the Cave Heaven Blessed Land that Xiang Nantian told him.

……

Qianguo, West.

Seven Branches,

Qifentang occupies the extreme west, and does business with the Qiang people in the west on weekdays, and almost all of the five or six prefectures and cities around have their people, and there are tens of thousands of disciples.

The strength of the Seven Branches Hall is far stronger than the original Djinn Gang.

All this stems from the solid foundation laid by the seven members of the Seven Branches Hall at the beginning.

However, in recent years, the situation of the Seven Branches Hall is not very optimistic.

The Western Army, which had a good division, fought against the Qiang people for many years, blocked the border, and did not allow the outflow of goods from the Qianguo, and the Qifentang could only be carried out in the form of smuggling, and the business was greatly damaged.

Although the two sides did not fight openly, there was no shortage of secret fights in private, and there were often frictions.

It's just that the strength of the Seven Branches Hall is deeply rooted in this place and has been entrenched for a long time, and Shi Youdao doesn't want to fall out with it easily, so the two sides maintain a superficial peace.

The carriage slowly drove into the boundary where the Seven Branches were located.

The main hall of the seventh branch hall was set up in Xingyuan Mountain in the west of Qianguo.

This mountain stretches for 300 years, is located between the three provinces, and the land on one side is close to the Qiang people in the west, which is an extremely special place.

On Xingyuan Mountain, you can faintly see a forest of buildings, and you can see many flying eagles hovering over the mountain.

This is a kind of flying eagle tamed by the Seven Branches Hall containing the blood of strange beasts, which is more ferocious than ordinary eagles, and its size is also several times that of ordinary eagles, which is extremely huge.

There have long been rumors on the rivers and lakes that the Qifentang domesticated an eagle-like heaven and earth beast, which is an ancient beast, which is extremely extraordinary.

These eagles are the offspring of this beast.

The Seven Branches became famous, and part of it was because of these flying eagles.

These flying eagles are eyes hovering in the sky, and they can clearly see everything within a radius of tens of miles.

Therefore, as soon as Shen Du's carriage came to the bottom of the mountain, the people of the Qifen Hall on Xingyuan Mountain had already learned about it.

At the foot of the mountain, a group of Qifentang disciples dressed in gray hexagrams immediately surrounded them.

These people are all relatively young, they look like they are in their twenties, and several of them have reached the innate realm, and the first one has even reached the level of the Five Qi Dynasty.

These people are naturally nothing in Shen Du's eyes, but they are by no means weak in the rivers and lakes.

"Stop!"

The man at the head stood up, frowned, and said coldly, "Who are you?"

"This place is the realm of my Seven Branches!"

Liang Yuan held a horsewhip in his hand and looked at the group with a grim face.

In the past, these people dared to talk to him like this, and they had already made him slap him to death.

Liang Yuan said coldly: "Tell your hall master, let them come down the mountain to greet them!" ”

Although Qifentang is famous, he is also a strong person in the law, so he may not be weaker than the other party.

Not to mention that sitting in this carriage is still the god of the six doors of Dayan and Shen Du.

With his identity, there is nothing wrong with letting the hall master of the Seven Branches come to meet him.

Everyone was stunned at first.

Soon laughed out loud, laughing exceptionally loudly.

"Haha!"

"What did he just say?"

One of them plucked out his ears and said with a look of surprise: "I heard you right, right?" ”

"He even asked the hall master to come and greet him personally!"

"Phew!"

"I don't look at what I am, and I deserve to be greeted by our hall master!"

Several people showed a mocking gesture between their words, and their faces were full of disdain.

In the hearts of everyone, the three hall masters of the Seven Branches Hall are high-ranking figures, and even they are rare to see.

A group of people who appeared out of nowhere even wanted their hall master to greet them in person.

The man at the head shook his head and sneered: "I don't know what kind of person is sitting in the carriage, and he wants our hall master to greet him!" ”

In this Xizhou realm, not many people dared to let their hall master come to greet them.

If it was really those big factions, they would have received the news before they came, and the trip would not be so shabby.

At this moment, Tu Xuan slowly stepped down from the carriage, although she was veiled, her upright figure instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Everyone's hearts were immediately attracted by Tu Xuan, and there seemed to be a fire lit in their eyes, and their eyes stared directly at Tu Xuan.

Although the Demon Yin Sect is cultivating music and martial arts, it is originally a demonic way, and at the same time, it also cultivates spiritual secret arts, which is fascinating.

Ordinary people just look at it, but they fall into it and can't extricate themselves.

After Tu Xuan stepped out of the carriage, she did not speak, but respectfully served aside.

At this moment, Shen Ducai, who was dressed in a black robe, stepped down from the carriage, his face was cold, and his breath was restrained.

"Shen Du!"

"That's a name."

The flat voice sounded slowly, like a breeze blowing.

Everyone's faces changed slightly, and they were surprised: "Which Shen Du?" ”

"Shut up!"

The man who was the leader in front immediately scolded his subordinates behind him, his face pale.

How many Shen Du are there in this world?

Even those with the same name have already secretly changed their names.

Da Yan, Six Doors God Catch-Shen Du!

Shen ...... Shen Da ......"

As soon as the man wanted to speak, a force of heaven and earth descended.

"Bang bang!"

The bodies of several people exploded at the same time, turning into a blood mist.

Shen stood alone at the foot of the mountain, stood with his hands in his hands, and said lightly: "Liang Yuan, hit it!" ”

"Let them come out to greet them!"

Liang Yuan shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and the two moon wheel long knives behind him flew out, stepped out, and went straight into Xingyuan Mountain, and the momentum of the Law Elephant Realm was released.

The rolling momentum was like a stormy wave, crushing everything around it, and making a loud roar.

The air is rolling!

In the sky, the eagle screamed in terror as if it had met a natural enemy.

The entire Xingyuan Mountain was also alarmed, and one by one the disciples of the sect walked out of the room one after another, looking at the direction of the lower mountain with a shocked expression.

Almost instantly, the two moon wheels behind Liang Yuan turned into streamers and flew out, sweeping everything around.

One by one, the disciples of the Seven Sect Hall turned into a blood mist in the sky in an instant, and let out a terrible scream.

"Who dares to come to my Seven Branches Hall to be presumptuous!"

Suddenly, a neutral voice came from the mountain, accompanied by a figure in a cyan robe.

The man looked to be in his forties, with a blue birthmark scar on his right eye and a green dragon tattoo.

This person is Xu Qingyang, the "blue-eyed dragon" of the Seven Branches, and one of the masters of the Seven Branches.

Xu Qingyang shouted at Liang Yuan: "Who is Your Excellency, why did you break into my Seventh Branch?!" ”

A strange magic elephant powerhouse!

When did he offend such a strong man?

Although the Seven Branches Hall is powerful, it is impossible to offend a strong person for no reason.

Liang Yuan smiled coldly and said coldly: "I was about to ask for the power of the Blue Eyed Dragon!" ”

As soon as the voice fell, he took the lead in making a move, and the two moon wheels merged into one, turning into a round flying knife and shooting out.

Breaking the air roaring!

Xu Qingyang was shocked in his heart, and said angrily: "Your Excellency is too deceitful! ”

"You must know that my seventh branch is not easy to break into."

Xu Qingyang stepped out, his five fingers into claws, as if there was a claw print that destroyed everything, and grabbed it in the air.

There was a faint dragon roar, and the huge dragon claws slowly pressed downward.

He has practiced a dragon claw hand, which is known as being able to split mountains with one claw, and his power is endless.

Xu Qingyang reached out and pinched the knife of the moon wheel with five fingers, with majestic power in his palm.

"Bang!"

With a bang, Xu Qingyang was forced to retreat, and his arm trembled slightly.

He was horrified!

Who is this person?

In the first encounter, he has fallen into disadvantage, and if he continues to fight for a long time, he will be defeated.

Xu Qingyang's eyes flickered, staring at Liang Yuan coldly, and in his heart, he was constantly thinking about the Faxiang powerhouse who became famous in the rivers and lakes.

At this time, on the top of Xingyuan Mountain, another figure stepped out, with a slender figure, dressed in white, holding a folding fan, looking to be in his fifties.

The end of the white robe is embroidered with a flame pattern.

One of the masters of the Seven Branches, Lu Shaoting, who is known as the white-clothed judge.

Lu Shaoting stared into the distance, his mind floated, and his gaze suddenly fixed on the bottom of the mountain.

"What a brilliant woman!"

Lu Shaoting was surprised.

Even though he had read all over the Qinglou, he still couldn't find a few women who could compare with this person.

The most special thing is the aura on this person's body, which is undoubtedly a Dharma Elephant powerhouse.

The light of his eyes slowly turned, the smile on his face froze, his pupils shrank sharply, and he said in horror: "Why is this evil star?" ”

"Shen Du!"

With just one glance, he recognized the man next to the carriage at the foot of the mountain!
