192 Demon Cult 21

The next morning, Zuo Protector and Chen Nan came to Yao Rong to discuss the follow-up matters with Yao Rong.

Although the Absolute Immortal Pavilion captured the Xuyang Sect without paying too many casualties, it was because Mu Jianye and Shen Qinghuai were not there.

Once Mu Jianye and Shen Qinghuai knew about yesterday's incident, it was very likely that they would temporarily shake hands and make peace, and in turn deal with the Absolute Immortal Pavilion.

No matter how infighting they are, they have to find a way to protect the Sunrise faction first.

Otherwise, the Rising Sun Sect will be destroyed, so what kind of infighting will there be.

Chen Nandao: "This matter can't be hidden, at most five days, Mu Jianye and Shen Qinghuai will be able to receive the news." ”

Yao Rong said: "Since you can't hide it, you don't have to hide it." ”

"You directly release the news and tell the whole Jianghu that in half a month, I will hold a sword conference in the Rising Sun Sect, and invite all martial arts people who have enmity with the Rising Sun Sect or the Absolute Immortal Pavilion to come to the meeting."

Chen Nan almost dropped the teacup in his hand.

Chang Yue choked on the tea in her mouth, clutching her chest and coughing repeatedly.

Wen Wu and Zuo Protector were the most direct, slapping the table and laughing.

Ah Xi said directly: "Mother, you are too narrow." ”

Isn't that a cramping?

The Absolute Immortal Pavilion held a sword conference on the territory of the Rising Sun Sect, if this news was released, what was the difference between putting the face of the Rising Sun Sect under the soles of their feet.

Yao Rong said with a smile: "Could it be that only the Rising Sun Sect is allowed to hold a sword conference, and we are not allowed to hold a sword conference in the Absolute Immortal Pavilion?" ”

"It's going to be a very lively day." Chen Nan couldn't wait to spread the news, but there was one more thing he didn't understand, "Why did the Pavilion Master invite those who had enmity with the Absolute Immortal Pavilion to come?" ”

Yao Rong Zhengse: "Have you all been called a Demon Sect in the Immortal Pavilion?" ”

Zuo Protector was the first to answer: "Of course I am not reconciled. ”

Chen Nan also said: "The Absolute Immortal Pavilion has neither slaughtered innocent people, nor has it been a party to the disaster, I never think that the Absolute Immortal Pavilion is a demon sect. ”

Chang Yue mentioned the matter of Axi Sect villagers planting herbs and helping villagers increase their income: "If such a sect can also be called a demon sect, then I would rather have no right way in the rivers and lakes." ”

Wen Wu pointed the finger at the Xuyang faction: "The Xuyang faction slaughtered the Wen family indiscriminately, and it can still become the first sect of the righteous path." This so-called righteous path is a joke. ”

Ah Xi understood what Yao Rong meant: "Does my mother want to use this sword conference to wash away the name of the Absolute Immortal Pavilion Demon Sect?" ”

Yao Rong nodded: "As the master of the Absolute Immortal Pavilion, I know very well that the Absolute Immortal Pavilion is not as bad as the world says, but there are also some problems. ”

"If it is not broken, it will not stand, and now it is just taking this opportunity to wash away the infamy of the Absolute Immortal Pavilion, and second, to rectify the style of the Absolute Immortal Pavilion."

Wen Wudao: "This plan is really good. ”

But soon, Wen Wu changed his words: "But there is a very big loophole in this plan. ”

Everyone looked at Wen Wu, and Wen Wu continued: "What if Mu Jianye and Shen Qinghuai kill the Xuyang Sect in advance? We can't control their movements. ”

They arranged it very well, but why did Mu Jianye and Shen Qinghuai follow their arrangement.

Yao Rong had already thought about this question: "First, Mu Jianye and Shen Qinghuai are definitely more inclined to kill me openly than in private." ”

"Only in this way can they barely salvage the reputation of the Sunrise Sect."

"Second, I will personally give Mu Jianye and Shen Qinghuai a letter of war, and invite them to compete with me on the day of the Sword Conference."

"If I lose the competition, the Absolute Immortal Pavilion will withdraw from the Central Plains Martial Arts from now on, and I will never ask about the Central Plains Martial Arts again."

Obviously, the one-on-one competition is more beneficial to Mu Jianye and Shen Qinghuai.

Because the overall strength of Yao Rong's side is stronger.

Yao Rong put forward this idea, which was equivalent to giving up the biggest advantage on her side.

Even if Mu Jianye and Shen Qinghuai knew that she was deliberately playing a trick, they would definitely follow her trick.

Because they have no reason to refuse.

The Absolute Immortal Pavilion mobilized all the manpower, and in just three days, the news that the "Second Sword Conference" was about to be held spread all over the rivers and lakes, and even the capital heard about it.

When everyone heard about this, their first reaction was disbelief. Their thinking was still stuck in the time when the Rising Sun Sect was the king and hegemon.

But after the surprise, many people pounded the table and laughed wildly.

Whether it was those who had an enmity with the Rising Sun Sect, or those who had an enmity with the Absolute Immortal Pavilion, or those who had no grudges with them at all, they all immediately set off to rush to the Rising Sun Sect, for fear that they would not be able to catch up if they were one step too slow.

Such a lively thing, if they miss it, they will definitely regret it for the rest of their lives.

Even the one in the palace, if it weren't for the ministers crying and shouting that "gentlemen don't stand under the dangerous wall", and also moved out of the ancestral etiquette, he would have to go to join in the fun.

Still, the emperor sent a detachment of men.

There were several court painters in it, and there were even people who specialized in telling him stories.

Unlike these fun people, the mood of the other two parties is broken, very broken.

Mu Jianye is better, after all, his position as head has been abolished.

Strictly speaking, the Sunrise Sect no longer belongs to him.

It was Shen Qinghuai who was really angry and almost fainted.

He has been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for decades, and since he founded the Xuyang faction, the Xuyang faction has been the first sect in the rivers and lakes.

What is the difference between the Absolute Immortal Pavilion slapping the face of the Rising Sun Sect and slapping him in the face!

When the people next to him saw Shen Qinghuai falling, they were so frightened that they hurriedly went to help him and pressed him hard.

Patriarch he, he, he......

He's not young.

If something is so bad that they are angry, their Sunrise Sect will really be finished.

Under the appeasement of the disciples, Shen Qinghuai's emotions calmed down a little, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Quick! Pack up my things immediately and rush back to the Sunrise Pie! ”

"How the Second Elder and the Third Elder are guarding the sect! It's only been a long time since I came out, and they have lost the Sunrise Sect, and when the time comes, I will definitely punish them severely! ”

The person next to him didn't dare to answer this.

In fact, they could all guess that the Rising Sun Sect had been breached, and the Second Elder and Third Elder would still be okay?

Others may still have a chance to live, but the Second Elder and the Third Elder will certainly not have it.

However, looking at Shen Qinghuai's blue and purple face, as if his life was imminent, the people next to him really didn't dare to remind Shen Qinghuai at this time.

The horses galloped all the way, and the smoke and dust billowed from the official road.

Countless people moved when they heard the wind and gathered at the foot of the rising sun.

But at this moment, Yao Rong's mind was not on the Sword Conference.

She now has the Sunrise Sect as her territory.

Now that the land is in hand, it can't be wasted, so we have to find a way to deal with it.

It was not a problem for those disciples of the Rising Sun Sect to be locked up in the firewood room every day to eat rice, and they just happened to sneak out to work.

Yao Rong pondered what to arrange for them.

After Ah Xi heard about Yao Rong's troubles, his eyes lit up.

Yao Rong asked, "What, do you have an idea?" ”

"Mother, what do you think about letting them go to the fields to grow herbs?"

"Grow herbs?"

"The geographical location of the Rising Sun Sect is much better than that of the Absolute Immortal Pavilion."

Ah Xi has been collecting medicines in Xuyang Mountain for so many years, and she knows the growth of herbs here.

At this moment, a complete plan for the distribution of medicine fields had appeared in her mind.

Yao Rong saw that she knew what she knew, so he left this matter to her to arrange.

Ah Xi didn't refuse, but she might not be busy on her own: "Mother, can I borrow Senior Brother Chen Nan from you?" ”

The corners of Yao Rong's lips curved slightly, and he said warmly: "No." Chen Nan is my most effective assistant, and I still have a lot of important things to do on my side. ”

Yao Rong also recommended other candidates to Ah Xi: "You can ask Elder Chang Yue and Elder Chang Yue's senior disciples for help. They knew more about the Rising Sun Sect than Chen Nan. ”

Ah Xi thought about it for a while: "Then I'll go find Elder Chang Yue." ”

When Ah Xi finished looking for Elder Chang Yue and returned to her residence, she saw Chen Nan standing outside the courtyard gate waiting for her.

Ah Xi asked Chen Nan why he came over.

Chen Nan coughed: "That is, I heard that you are going to plan a medicine field in the Xuyang Sect, and you also want to let the Xuyang Sect disciples go to farm?" ”

Ah Xi invited Chen Nan to sit down, and poured him a glass of mint water: "You heard about this so quickly." ”

Chen Nan said seriously: "Actually, I'm not so busy with the things at hand. When the pavilion master told you that, he was just too sympathetic to me and didn't want me to work too hard. ”

Ah Xi was surprised and raised his head.

It was rare for her to stare at someone so seriously, and it was the first time she had looked at Chen Nan so carefully.

In all fairness, Chen Nan's appearance was not much worse than Mu Wenxuan's.

It's just that compared with Mu Wenxuan, who is suave and accustomed to pretending to be polite, Chen Nan's temperament is more restrained and deep.

Xu is perennial practice of archery, his eyes are very clear, as if he can see through people at a glance, few people in the Absolute Immortal Pavilion dare to look at him.

But at this moment, when he met Ah Xi's gaze, Chen Nan took the lead in opening his eyes.

Ah Xi confirmed: "Are you really busy?" ”

"Really."

Ah Xi laughed out loud, as clear as a bell: "Then I won't be polite to you." ”

At dinner that night, Ah Xi casually told Yao Rong about it, Yao Rong: "......"

If Yao Rong didn't know how much work she had assigned to Chen Nan, she couldn't help but arrange more things for Chen Nan.

The system instigated: [It's okay, add another burden to him, and see if he dares to say big things in the future.] 】

[Originally, according to the amount of tasks you gave, he could sleep for four hours a day; But he wants to help Ah Xi, and he can only sleep for three hours a day at most; Now you can arrange a little more for him, so that he can only sleep for two hours at most! 】

"Tsk, I didn't expect you to be this kind of system."

[Hmph, I didn't expect him to be this kind of right protector.] 】

I agree. I didn't expect that either. ”

System Excited: [What do you think of my proposal?] 】

"Not good, I'm not the kind of unscrupulous boss."

Yao Rong decisively rejected the proposal.

The system was shocked: [Isn't it? 】

Yao Rong smiled: "Of course not." ”

Chen Nanke is the most capable person under her hands.

If you wear people out now, what will you do in the future?

After a few busy days, the matter of Yaotian has finally come to an end, and the day of the Sword Conference is approaching.

Yao Rong gave Chen Nan a day off, and when he was rested, he immediately arranged a new job for him: to investigate whether there were many people who came to participate in the Sword Conference.

There are several villages at the foot of Xuyangpai Mountain, and there is a small town more than ten miles away.

The people who arrived in advance basically settled in the restaurant in the town.

So as long as you inquire about the occupancy of the restaurant, you will know how many people from the rivers and lakes have come.

Chen Nan quickly came over and replied: "As early as two days ago, the restaurant in the town was full. ”

Ah Xi was surprised: "So many people? ”

"I didn't expect there to be so many people." Chen Nan said helplessly, "As soon as many people got the news, they rushed over non-stop. The people who arrived at the moment were all relatively close to the Rising Sun Sect, and by the time the Sword Conference began, it was estimated that the number would have to double again. ”

Yao Rong asked, "Can the Xuyang Sect accommodate so many people?" ”

Chen Nan: "Yes, it's just that there are too many people, and I'm worried that something will go wrong." ”

Yao Rong: "Don't worry. You greet the sects that are good friends with us, such as Zhaotianmen and Sword Sect, in advance, and let them help us maintain order when the time comes. ”

This is where allies come in.

Otherwise, why bother to form an alliance before.

Chen Nan answered, and just as he was about to retreat, he was stopped by Yao Rong: "I just thought about it, although I really want to take off the hat of the Demon Sect in the Absolute Immortal Pavilion, haven't I taken it off yet?" ”

Chen Nan didn't understand what Yao Rong meant.

Yao Rong said: "I held the Sword Conference, did I create excitement for the people in the rivers and lakes? ”

"Is this the only event in decades? If you miss it, will you feel very regretful, very pity? ”

Chen Nan still didn't understand, but it didn't prevent him from nodding along with Yao Rong's words.

Yao Rong: "So, if you want to come in and participate in the Sword Conference, you need two taels of silver for one person." The more you give, the more forward the seat and the better the view. ”

Ah Xi was surprised, can it still be like this?

Chen Nan's eyes lit up, it can still be like this!

Ah Xi asked: "We didn't say we wanted to collect money before, but now we suddenly want to collect it, isn't it good?" ”

Without Yao Rong opening his mouth to explain, Chen Nan took the first step to find an excuse: "Isn't this the person who came to participate in the Sword Discussion Conference, far exceeding our expectations." ”

"The bar has been raised to make it easier for everyone to watch. Otherwise, if anyone could come and watch, wouldn't the scene be chaotic into a vegetable market? ”

"And the various sects are not convinced by each other, in the past, when there were these gatherings, it was a headache to arrange which sect's position was in the front and which sect's position was arranged in the back."

"Now this method solves this problem perfectly."

Although the Absolute Immortal Pavilion is not short of money, who would be afraid of the lack of money.

Slaughtering these martial arts people, Chen Nan was not soft at all.

Ah Xi originally thought that the sudden collection of money by the Absolute Immortal Pavilion would cause a lot of scolding, but in fact, after the people in the rivers and lakes heard that the Absolute Immortal Pavilion was going to collect money, they were relieved, and the hearts that were still a little worried also fell back into their stomachs.

It's good to collect money, it's good to collect money.

If they didn't collect the money, they were always worried that the Absolute Immortal Pavilion would take advantage of this opportunity to make trouble.

Although receiving money does not guarantee that you will not make trouble, at least it is more reassuring than free!

Anyway, those who can ride horses all the way to join in the fun won't not be able to take out even two taels of silver.

Those wealthier sects or families also spent a lot of money to buy seats in the front row.

In less than half a day, all the seats in the front row were sold out.

There are many rich people in the rivers and lakes, which is beyond Ah Xi's expectations.

Ah Xi calculated the account a little, and they collected more than three thousand taels of silver for the seat alone.

And what did the Absolute Immortal Pavilion give?

Maybe it's just a little manpower to help those sects that have bought seats to arrange a good position.

Coupled with the entrance fee of two taels of silver per person, after a sword conference, the Absolute Immortal Pavilion will net at least four thousand taels of silver.

Ah Xi has no business acumen, and her talent is focused on medical skills, so she admires people like Yao Rong and Chen Nan who can do business.

But there are also some people who scolded Yao Rong and Chen Nan again and again.

This is naturally Mu Jianye and Shen Qinghuai.

The Sword Conference was first proposed by Mu Jianye, and now Yao Rong not only uses it, but also makes the Sword Conference a miasma.

Shen Qinghuai felt that this practice was too philistine, and the Xuyang Sect was a place to practice martial arts, not a place to do business.

But no matter what they thought, they could only endure it and quietly wait for the Sword Conference to arrive.

The sky is clear, and the blue waves are like washing.

As soon as the doors of the town were opened, hundreds of horses drove out of the town and set off towards Sunrise Mountain.

At the gate of the Rising Sun Sect, there was no longer the tragic situation of the corpses that day.

Young men dressed in the costumes of the Absolute Immortal Pavilion sect stood at the door, registering the names and sects of the visitors one by one.

After registering, someone will guide them to the martial arts training ground.

When it was approaching, there were people standing around the martial arts training ground, and Zuo Protector, Chen Nan, and Chang Yue also appeared.

Only Yao Rong, A Xi, Shen Qinghuai, and Mu Jianye, the four main masters, have not arrived.

"You say, will the Ancestor of the Rising Sun Sect win, or will the Pavilion Master of the Absolute Immortal Pavilion win?"

Now, when addressing Yao Rong, everyone has tacitly changed their words from "Demon Sect Master" to "Absolute Immortal Pavilion Master".

After all, if Yao Rong wins today's competition, the situation in the entire rivers and lakes will change again.

"Didn't the town open a gambling game, I bet on the ancestor of the Rising Sun Sect. He was already the first person in the rivers and lakes decades ago. ”

"This bet was proposed by the Pavilion Master of the Absolute Immortal Pavilion, if she is not a little sure, she can do this?"

In addition to discussing the outcome of the battle, some people were curious: "You say, is it that Master Mu first sent out the battle on behalf of Xuyang, or did Ancestor Shen send out the battle on behalf of Xuyang first?" ”

"I don't know. What I'm more curious about is whether Master Mu and Patriarch Shen will give the entrance fee for the two taels of silver......"

"Well, I'm also curious when you ask."

Mu Jianye and Shen Qinghuai, of course, are the choices-

Don't give!

Although the Xuyang faction has now fallen into the hands of Yao Rong, in the hearts of Mu Jianye and Shen Qinghuai, the Xuyang faction is still their Xuyang faction.

Why should they give money when they go back to their own sect?

If the disciples at the door stopped them again, they wouldn't mind killing these disciples first to vent their anger.

However, the disciples of the Absolute Immortal Pavilion guarding the door were very clever, and they had already been explained by Yao Rong, seeing that they didn't plan to give the silver, they took a few steps back without saying a word.

As soon as the disciples of the Absolute Immortal Pavilion retreated, Mu Jianye and Shen Qinghuai would not be able to do it again.

They looked at each other, and their faces were very ugly.

If it weren't for the enemy of the Absolute Immortal Pavilion blocking in front, they would have drawn their swords to face each other by this time.

"Hey, hey, Master Mu has arrived!"

"Let Jean, let Rang, Patriarch Shen has also arrived!"

The already noisy and noisy crowd became more and more boiling when Mu Jianye and Shen Qinghuai appeared one after the other.

"The demeanor of Master Mu is still the same."

"Is this Ancestor Shen, it's really magnificent, and his face looks like he is only fifty years old at most."

Shen Qinghuai saw that the seat of the main seat was still empty, and said dissatisfiedly: "What about the Pavilion Master of the Absolute Immortal Pavilion, why hasn't he appeared yet?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Yao Rong took Ah Xi over the crowd and sat down in the main seat.

Shen Qinghuai said: "Since you have arrived, let's start." Don't waste everyone's time. ”

Yao Rong said: "The truth that the guest is as the master is, Patriarch Shen will not understand." ”

Shen Qinghuai was so angry by her words that he pointed at Yao Rong with his finger, and his internal force turned into an invisible qi blade and attacked Yao Rong-

Ah Xi on his side!

Yao Rong flicked his sleeves and blocked this attack for Ah Xi, and the smile on his face faded: "Ancestor Shen, it is inevitable to act like this." ”

It's just a matter of shooting at her, and Shen Qinghuai is too shameless to shoot at Ah Xi, a person who has no internal strength.

The onlookers nodded secretly, and they were all a little ashamed of Shen Qinghuai's approach.

They walk in the rivers and lakes, and it is normal for them to have enemies.

But when it comes to revenge, it generally does not harm the other party's relatives who have no internal strength.

Shen Qinghuai is in front of everyone, breaking the rules of the rivers and lakes.

Of course, Shen Qinghuai knew what they were thinking, but he didn't care.

lived to his age and status, and half of the rules in the rivers and lakes were set by him.

The rules he set were meant to bind others, not to himself.

"When I made a name for myself in the rivers and lakes, you were not born yet. Whatever the guest wants? It's ridiculous! ”

Yao Rong said: "So Patriarch Shen wants to rely on his age, so he won't pay the entrance fee for the two taels of silver?" ”

Without waiting for Shen Qinghuai to speak, Yao Rong looked at Mu Jianye again: "What about you, Master Mu, what is your reliance?" Could it be that after escaping from the Sunrise Sect, you have fallen to the point where you can't even take out two taels of silver? ”

Mu Jianye smiled lightly: "Don't say two taels of silver, even two hundred taels, or even two thousand taels, I can get it." ”

"It doesn't seem that there is no money, it's just that you two just don't want to follow my rules."

Yao Rong got up slowly, and the long sword at his waist was also unsheathed.

"As for the tickets, I must collect them."

"It's just that from now on, the ticket is no longer silver, but the head of the two people."

As soon as the voice fell, the atmosphere in the audience suddenly froze. :,,
