Chapter III: Heated Debate
Wei Wanjian, the master of the Hidden Sword Valley, was a tall man with a cold face, and his whole person was like a bladeless heavy sword, which made people tremble when they saw it. Wei Wanjian has been in charge of the position of the valley lord for more than 100 years, and he is more than 200 years old, and he is a figure in the Jindan period.
Lu Xuan spoke carefully, after all, the other party could poke him to death with one finger.
After listening to Lu Xuan's statement, Wei Wanjian frowned and said, "What you said is not unreasonable. However, in recent years, our faction has focused on internal cultivation and no longer fights with the Qingyuan Sect. Once you accept your door, it will definitely be a battle with Qingyuanmen, and it may not be able to win. If this is the case, what is the point? It is better to talk about it in the Immortal League. ”
Lu Xuan suddenly laughed.
Wei Wanjian's eyebrows were upside down, and he said coldly: "What are you laughing at?"
The entire hall was frozen as if it had fallen into an ice cave, and He Zhili and the others next to him did not dare to gasp for breath.
Lu Xuan said with a smile: "I often hear people say that the Tibetan Sword Valley is full of talents, and the Lord of Wei Valley is a big hero. Think about it, Qingyuanmen has controlled the nearby Xianmeng for many years, and there are many masters, and the vassals are all over Shanyang. It's normal to be afraid. After all, not everyone dares to offend them. ”
He Zhili was furious and shouted: "Rude! What this door has done, how can you small families be able to evaluate it!" stepped forward to throw Lu Xuan out.
Wei Wanjian made a gesture to stop him, stared at Lu Xuan coldly, and said word by word: "Since you know that Qingyuanmen is so powerful, why don't you bow down to them, and come to the Hidden Sword Valley to take advantage of what to do?"
Lu Xuan gave a salute and said: "Although the Purple Thunder Gate is small, although Lu Xuan is weak, he also knows that immortal cultivators are not cultivating the physical body, but the mind. If it is merged, even if it escapes for a while, it will leave a lifetime of shame. With this mark, how can we get rid of cause and effect and attain the Great Dao? There will definitely be no hope of immortality! Therefore, even if we hit a stone with an egg, the Purple Thunder Gate will never compromise!"
Wei Wanjian stared at Lu Xuan for a while, seeing that he was hairy.
Suddenly, Wei Wanjian stood up and responded in a loud voice: "Well said. Immortal cultivators, just fighting the sword world, happy to enmity and revenge, how can they be full of worries and fearful! Qingyuanmen is in charge of the Northern Immortal League, but he only knows how to bully his fellow Daoists and seek benefits for his own sect, I have long seen that they are not pleasing to the eye, and of course I have to make a break with them when I have the opportunity!"
He paced down in front of Lu Xuan, stared at him and said, "However, you also said that the Qingyuan Sect is an ancient sect of thousands of years, and its combat power is strong, and my sect has fought against it several times in the past, but it has not won. If we do not win, will we not be doing a loss-making business? I am in charge of a faction, and I have to deal with the war carefully. If you can win, you will fight!"
Lu Xuan smiled and said loudly: "Ordinary people always say that Qingyuanmen is strong and is a tyrant in the north, but I don't think so. In fact, a huge Qingyuan Gate is already a strong outsider, and it can't last long!"
Pan Shuangzi, the elder of the Hidden Sword Valley who was present, couldn't help but say, "Just now I said that Qingyuanmen is strong, and now I say that Qingyuanmen is declining, what are you kidding?"
Lu Xuan turned his head and saw an old man who looked like he was in his fifties and had a white beard, he didn't dare to slack off, according to the information in the door, Elder Pan was a person who built the ninth layer of the foundation, and his combat power was second only to the valley lord in the Hidden Sword Valley.
Lu Xuanshi saluted, and said with a straight face: "The ancients debated wars, and they must talk about the right time, place, and people. Today, Lu Xuan is not talented, and I am willing to analyze them with you one by one. ”
"Everyone present knows that Qingyuanmen has long been a member of the ruling party of our Great Jin Northern Immortal Alliance, and he has a great right to speak. Therefore, whether it is a trial or a treasure hunt, as long as the people of the Northland encounter the people of the Qingyuan Gate, they must give up what they have gained, otherwise they will be retaliated against. For hundreds of years, the value of other people's spiritual treasures plundered by Qingyuanmen is more than tens of millions?
In the north, especially in Shanyang County, there are many spiritual stone mines in the mountains, which are rich in spiritual grass. These treasures originally came from the territories of each sect and belonged to each of them, but the Qingyuan Gate forced all the sects in the county to dedicate a large mine and a large piece of spiritual land. Therefore, the sects have empty territories and are essentially poor. The Northland Immortal Gate has been bitter for a long time, and it has long been separated from Germany. What Qingyuanmen did seriously violated the way of cultivating immortals, and people's hearts were abandoned. This is the time to lose. ”
"Qingyuanmen is located, located in the Shanyang Basin, with a vast territory. The eleven branches of the core are all built in the blessed land of the cave with the most abundant spiritual energy in the county. The advantage is that the spiritual land where it is located is rich in resources, which is convenient for cultivation. The disadvantage is that these eleven gates are not connected, but scattered throughout the county. As for the mines and medicine gardens they own, they are even more remote. Usually, Qingyuanmen has been a powerful blessing for a long time, and no one dares to touch the tiger's whiskers. Therefore, they are very inattentive to the defense of their own gate, and most of the mountain protection arrays that divide the gate have long been in disrepair and lack core components. The attached small array is also very missing. Once you suddenly encounter the enemy, it will be difficult to defend by relying on the formation, so you can only come out to fight. Therefore, there is no geographical advantage. ”
"Qingyuanmen is not only an ancient sect for thousands of years, but also naturally has the disadvantages of ancient sects. ”
"First, the disciple selection system within the sect has long been in vain, recruiting new disciples every year, and nine out of ten are descendants of the previous generation of disciples, regardless of their qualifications, they will all pass; Many young people with good qualifications switched to other factions because they didn't have spirit stones. Therefore, in the hundreds of years of Qingyuanmen, young talents have gradually withered, you don't see, although there are many monks in the Jindan period of Qingyuanmen, the number of monks in the later stage of foundation building has been equivalent to your faction, and the number of monks in the early stage of foundation building is small, and the age is also old, and it is rare to see those under forty, all of whom rely on the rich resources in the door to cultivate strongly, which is not as far as your faction. ”
"Second, the important positions in the door are held by major families. For example, the Bai family specializes in the Alchemy Hall, the Zhao family specializes in the Yanwu Hall, the Wang family specializes in the Smelting Hall, and so on. After a long time, the people in the position have long forgotten the rules and regulations of the sect, but only seek their own interests. Everyone is greedy for resources in the sect, accepting bribes from outsiders, and the sect atmosphere is corrupt. ”
"Third, the master of the sect, Huangfu Guang, is very old, and in order to impact the Jindan level, he takes a large amount of medicine, cultivates every day, and can't take care of the affairs of the door at all. The important matters of Qingyuanmen could not be handed over to him at all, let alone solved. Therefore, the sect was divided into three factions, and each faction was extremely disgusted with each other, and the infighting continued. ”
"Therefore, there is no one and no one. ”
"Comprehensive time, location, and people, Qingyuanmen is all lacking; as long as your faction chooses the right direction of attack, once it wins once, Qingyuanmen will fall apart. ”
At this point, Lu Xuan arched his hand and signaled that he had finished speaking.
The hall was quiet, and everyone in the Hidden Sword Valley had to admit that what Lu Xuan said was very convincing.
Wei Wanjian came back to his senses, laughed, and said, "Master Lu is really a genius! I have to say that the old man has been moved by you." Since Qingyuanmen is already so unbearable, it is only natural for me to hide the Sword Valley and replace it. Okay, I'll agree to your request, Hidden Sword Valley and Purple Thunder Gate, and we will be a family from now on. If any sect dares to move the Purple Thunder Sect, it must first obtain the consent of the Hidden Sword Valley!"
Lu Xuan was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him.
Only then did he feel that the clothes on his back were soaked.
At this time, He Zhili of the Foreign Affairs Hall said: "Although the two factions have the same goal, your faction is the direct enemy. Therefore, the practice of vassalization should not be abandoned. ”
Lu Xuan was mentally prepared and replied: "Although the Purple Thunder Gate is poor, he does not dare to forget the etiquette of his subordinates. Our door must pay one-tenth of the offering on time every year, and the order of the Hidden Sword Valley will be the first in case of trouble. ”
He Zhili nodded, and said, "According to the usual practice, the newly accepted vassal sect needs to provide protons and go to this sect to retreat for ten years. Proton must be a core disciple and must be related to the head of the family. ”
Lu Xuan is a little difficult, the proton is a hostage, and once he has a dirty relationship with the upper sect in the future, the end of the proton can be described as tragic. However, people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads, and in order to make a covenant, protons are indispensable.
At this time, Wei Wanjian, the valley master who was sitting on the top, said: "I heard that the elders of the Purple Thunder Sect all fell some time ago, and the head of the Lu Sect was young when he succeeded to the throne, and he had no descendants. Then choose one of the core disciples. ”
Lu Xuanfu said: "But it's up to the valley master to decide." ”
"Then choose Pang Rou from your Alchemy Hall. ”
Lu Xuan was taken aback, and he didn't expect that the Hidden Sword Valley was also very clear about the details of the Purple Thunder Gate, and the closest person to Lu Xuan was Pang Rou. Because the two started in the same year, they have a distant relationship.
It seems that the Hidden Sword Valley has not been very peaceful over the years, and even the personal relationships of the disciples of this sect have been collected.
Lu Xuan gritted his teeth and said, "Then let's do it." ”
He felt a little guilty in his heart, but at this juncture, he could only agree. I can only give her more compensation in the future.
The general direction of the covenant has been reached, and there are no differences between the two sides, so everyone's expressions are relaxed.
This is Lu Xuan and said: "But there is still a reluctant invitation from this door." ”
Wei Wanjian was in a good mood and said with a smile: "You say." ”
Lu Xuan thanked him and said, "This sect is now destitute, so I think your sect will fund me to send a batch of cultivation materials. ”
With that, take out a list.
Wei Wanjian frowned and said, "Take it." ”
After reading the list, Wei Wanjian said angrily: "Are you the one who opened a good hall when I was in the Sword Hidden Sword Valley?"
He Zhili glanced at it next to him, and saw that it read: five Pulp Cleansing Pills, Ten Zodiac Refining Pills, and 100 Gathering Spirit Pills. There are also rejuvenation pills, spirit stones, etc., and there are all kinds of them, and it is estimated that the total value is no less than 20,000 spirit stones.
Lu Xuan said with a smile: "The level of the disciples of this sect is also low, and it is better to serve the Hidden Sword Valley after improving the cultivation." ”
Wei Wanjian threw away the list and said, "Nonsense." However, the spirit stone of this door did not fly out of thin air. How can I fund you so much, at most five hundred spirit stones. ”
Lu Xuan said with a smile: "In this case, thank the valley master for the five hundred spirit stones first." I estimated that the list was worth a lot, and it was not appropriate to receive it directly. It's not as good as this, the spirit stones with the remaining value on the list should be borrowed from the Purple Thunder Gate to the Hidden Sword Valley, and they will be gradually returned after the sect becomes rich in the future. ”
He Zhili sneered: "I don't think your faction can afford it." ”
Lu Xuan was not angry, and said: "He wiped out the Qingyuan Gate one day, how can the Hidden Sword Valley gain more than ten million? I believe that the Purple Thunder Gate can also gain a lot." ”
Wei Wanjian sighed and said, "Okay." Even so, I promise you. Everything starts with the elimination of Qingyuanmen!"
Lu Xuan was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him.
Then, Wei Wanjian said to the high-level officials of the Hidden Sword Valley who were present: "Listen to my orders! Now that the Purple Thunder Gate has been accepted, this gate will implement Plan No. 3 from now on! Everyone present needs to keep it secret, and those who leak the secret will be wiped out!"
The high-level officials of the Tibetan Sword Valley bowed down together and praised them together.
Only Lu Xuan was stunned.
It turned out that the Valley of Hidden Swords had a plan for a long time.
