Chapter 272: Petition for Nomination

Kongtong's funeral was held two months later, and Lu Chaoxi arrived half a month in advance.

After arriving at Xuanqing Peak, Lu Chaoxi stayed with Li Yanling for two days, and then he came across Yun Xuan's secret visit.

He brought a message:

"Zhao Zhengdong is going to defect. ”

Zhao Zhengdong is a member of the Ping An Zhao family, after the death of Zhao Zidan and the destruction of the Zhao family, he directly took the power of the Zhao family of the former sect and joined the camp of the head of the lineage.

But the so-called Zhao family lineage is essentially a sect monk, even if he is the leader, it is impossible to decide everyone's position. Some of the small and medium-sized family monks from Anling, who were once from the Zhao family, gradually became very close to the Lu family, and some family monks gradually changed their stance to the Hai family, and a large number of people from poor families gradually became members of the real head of the family.

The people who could really rally around him and the few middle and high-ranking monks surnamed Zhao who were still alive became fewer and fewer as time passed.

Originally, if it was just like this, then the monks of the Zhao family might not have too many ideas.

However, when it was obvious that it was no longer possible for the head of the Kong Tong sect to continue to lead the head of the sect against the Lu family, and even when the head of the head of the sect began to gradually surrender to the Lu family and the Hai clan within these ten years, they had no room for illusions.

If they were still a little hesitant before, not knowing what to do next, then with the death of Kongtong, this is like the last straw that crushes the camel's back.

They had no choice but to leave the sect.

How did Yun Xuan know this news, Lu Chaoxi was no longer interested in finding out.

But what Yun Xuan thought about this matter made Lu Chaoxi very interested.

He asked, "What should Senior Brother Yun Xuan do?" You are the head of the Sect's Discipline Hall, I would like to hear your opinion on this matter. ”

Yun Xuan Zhenren glanced at Li Yanling, who was sitting next to him silently with his eyes closed, and sighed: "Defection must not be tolerated, we must stop it and punish it." It's just that Zhao Zhengdong is a person with extraordinary strength, and now he is also the peak of Qiming, if I go alone to block the pursuit, I am afraid that there will be a chance for him to escape. ”

"Then Senior Brother Yun Xuan means that you want me to go with you?"

Yun Xuan Zhenren didn't expect this. In his impression, Lu Chaoxi should have just entered the middle period of Qiming. At least he was still at that level of strength during the Battle of the Northern Wilderness. Now that ten years have passed, Lu Chaoxi is at most enlightened to the fifth floor. With such strength, in the face of a master like Zhao Zhengdong, who is at the peak of enlightenment, I am afraid it can be of little help.

Lu Chaoxi had no intention of explaining, his eyes looked at his wife next to him: "Yanling, are you interested in going?"

Li Yanling gradually opened her eyes: "Then let's go." ”

Yun Xuan made up his mind.

......

For Li Yanling, chasing down the traitors of the sect is a good opportunity for her to take over the position of head of the sect and establish her prestige.

What's more, the Zhao family also handed over the handle of the knife themselves.

Such an action is, of course, sooner rather than later.

On the second day, the Zongmen Discipline Hall had already begun to prepare for Zhao Zhengdong. Yun Xuan Zhenren was the commander-in-chief of this operation, and under his arrangement, the location of the monks of the Zhao family who were suspected of defecting had almost been figured out in advance. The elite monks under the Discipline Hall also surrounded the residences of these people.

They are preparing to solve the problem before Zhao Zhengdong and the others officially escape.

One of the most important battlefields is the Little Seal Peak.

The Little Seal Peak is a relatively remote spiritual vein in the Qingfeng Mountain Range, but it also has a third-order level. Zhao Zhengdong and some other core monks of the Zhao family, more than half of them, gathered here.

Their vigilance is still very strong.

When the monks of the Hall of Discipline began to set up the siege, they were already aware of it.

Zhao Zhengdong, who was sitting in the lobby of the main hall of Xiao Seal Peak, had a gloomy face.

Offstage, a member of the Zhao clan said to him in fear: "Big brother, let's surrender, explain clearly to the sect, maybe there is a way to live......

Another retorted, "It's stupid to have such an idea, look at the people in the Discipline Hall outside. How can such a battle look like they want to give us a way to live? According to me, it is better to fight with them!"

"How's this going to work? Aren't we dying?"

"Then bite off a piece of their flesh before you die, and let them know that the old dog also has a few teeth!"

Listen to the chaotic quarrels below. Zhao Zhengdong didn't say a word.

He knew it was all over.

If there was only one Yun Xuan outside, it wasn't without any chance, but it was almost certain that since the Discipline Hall had been dispatched on a large scale, it was impossible for Yun Xuan to be the only one among the people who came.

This matter must have been stabbed to Li Yanling. And as long as this Jindan monk directly intervened, it would be impossible for them to leave the range of Qingfeng Gate alive today.

Of course, Zhao Zhengdong knows how the news leaked.

He had already done it carefully enough, but how difficult was it to hide this kind of thing from everyone beforehand? They were all in the sect now!

They have to prepare materials for escape, they have to open up relationships, and gradually arrange people to leave the sect when the time comes. Especially later, in the process of leaving the sect, it is almost impossible to be foolproof and not be discovered, let alone face pursuit......

And if you want things to go as you wish, you can only rely on one person - Yun Xuan.

As long as Yun Xuan Zhenren acquiesces, turns a blind eye, and lets them go, then things will become much easier. Yun Xuan is the chief of the Discipline Hall, and all kinds of information within the sect are finally gathered into his hands, and he has a lot of power. And as long as Yun Xuan tacitly allows them to leave, then they can leave the sect calmly, even if they will still be pursued in the future, there is a high probability that they will also be from the Discipline Hall. Even if it weren't, the smooth ahead would buy them more time for their defection.

Moreover, as long as they leave the sect, then when they go outside, there will naturally be someone to pick them up.

Zhao Zhengdong is not a fool, he refuses to defect with the blind, he has already contacted the forces outside that can let them take refuge.

Yandu Zhao.

Yandu Zhao is one of the four great families of the Great Yan Dynasty, the top wealthy family of the Eight Classics, the most loyal courtier of the Yan Emperor, and the head of the family of the times, usually taking the position of the third prince in the Great Yan. Zhao Guangxin, the current head of the Zhao family, is the imperial historian of the Great Yan Dynasty and one of the three dukes.

Hundreds of years ago, why the family split from the Yandu Zhao clan and went north to Feiyun Prefecture is already difficult to verify. But now, now that the family has been destroyed, and they, the sect monks of the Zhao family, see that they can't stay in Qingfengmen anymore, it is also a good choice to return to the Yandu Zhao family.

Of course, Zhao Zhengdong knows that after so many years of separation, it is impossible for people to treat them as their own clansmen, but after all, looking at the ancient times, the same blood flows in the bodies of both sides, and they are always a little better than outsiders.

Moreover, after the initial contact, the other party also welcomed their return. and promised that after they left Qingfeng Gate, they would be in the south of Guangyang County to pick them up and leave Feiyun Prefecture.

It's a pity...... Now it seems that the escape plan was terminated directly at the step of leaving Qingfeng Gate.

In fact, until now, Zhao Zhengdong hadn't figured it out, why Yun Xuan would sell them, and what good did this do to Yun Xuan?

Maybe...... Voting may be a kind of petition.

It's just that Zhao Zhengdong didn't expect that Yun Xuan would do things so decisively, completely ignoring the past friendship.

Before this incident, he had always thought that Yun Xuan would have a grudge against the Lu family and the Hai family.

But it's too late to say anything now.

Surrender is also certain death, I believe that with the current influence of the Lu family in the sect, they can almost completely decide the follow-up of this matter. And with the grievances between their Zhao family and the Lu family, how could the Lu family let them live?

Just as he was thinking about it, a monk rushed in from outside the main hall and said in a panic: "The people from the Discipline Hall have already begun to break through the mountain gate!"

Zhao Zhengdong took a deep breath, summoned the magic sword, and strode out.

"Monk Zhao will meet the enemy with me!"

......

The shouting was very morale-high, but as soon as he went out, he was hanged and beaten.

Zhao Zhengdong didn't even see where his enemies were.

As soon as he came out, he was ready to shout, 'Who would dare to fight me?!', and then have a heart-wrenching battle with an enemy, whether he won or lost, he had to have that spirit anyway.

However, after coming out, he didn't even have a chance to shout, and a thick fog shrouded him.

I can't see my five fingers, and I can't even reach out too much with the perception of my divine sense, just five feet beside me.

It made him feel very uncomfortable.

According to the general level of the Qiming monks, the range of tens of zhang around them should be subtle under their divine sense, and if there is an enemy at a distance of hundreds or even hundreds of miles, they can sense it in advance.

When everything is compressed to the extreme, the feeling of becoming blind is really overwhelming.

Li Yanling...... Has it come to this point?"

Zhao Zhengdong has mobilized all his forces and is ready to respond to the attack at any time.

As for attacking, his Qinggang Sword is very well trained, but he doesn't even know where the enemy is, so what's the use?

And Li Yanling's attack came too suddenly.

Suddenly, he felt that he was all around, and there was a force that invaded his five-foot perception range. He poured all his strength into a defensive magic weapon to protect his body.

But that makes no sense.

All the sense of threat suddenly disappeared, and it came straight from the front, straight through. Through the defense formed by the best magic weapons, he was forcibly broken through at a single point on the front, and he suddenly saw that in front of him, an indifferent female face that seemed to be composed of dense fog and was seven points similar to Li Yanling's own appearance, almost opposite his face.

Immediately afterward, he felt a sharp pain in his head, and then his consciousness completely dissipated.
