Chapter 65: Misfortune Comes to the Door
Why did Chixia Sect’s foundation-building cultivation appear near Qingyun Sect?
When Wang Cheng thought of this question, the figure of the blue-clothed Taoist suddenly flashed through his mind.
This is the only reason he can think of.
After all, in order to save his life, he copied the map in his hand to the red-faced Taoist.
Could it be that the red-faced Taoist was caught and confessed what happened?
Wang Cheng had just had this idea in his mind, and immediately denied it himself.
Even if the red-faced Taoist was caught and asked to confess them, Chixia Sect would definitely not have the time to send someone to trouble Qingyun Sect. At most, it would issue secret orders to the opponent's disciples, treating Qingyun Sect as an enemy.
Just as Wang Cheng's thoughts were turning, the sword light that flew towards him had already arrived above his head and finally hovered in the air more than ten feet in front of him.
"My younger brother, Wang Cheng, has seen the seniors of Chixia Sect. He doesn't know that the seniors are coming to welcome him. I hope he can forgive me!"
Wang Cheng bowed his hands and snatched the monk above the flying sword before he spoke. He saluted him.
The so-called "stretching your hands will not hit people with a smile".
The middle-aged man in red, who was originally a bit aggressive on the flying sword, looked much better when he saw Wang Cheng as tactful as he was.
"It turns out that he is a fellow Taoist Wang from Qingyun Sect. Gao is polite here."
He nodded to Wang Cheng and bowed, then asked in a deep voice: "Have you been here recently?"
"Yes, I and my fellow disciples have been guarding these mulberry forests in the past two months, protecting these mulberry forests developed by our sect and the [Yunlong Chamber of Commerce]." Wang Cheng nodded and said the truth.
Seeing this, the monk named Gao couldn't help but continue asking: "Have you seen a red-faced Taoist appear nearby recently? Or have you seen any escape light flying in the sky?"
Wang Cheng shook his head this time: "I have never seen this before."
When the monk named Gao heard this, his face suddenly darkened, he looked at him with a cold look, and said in a cold tone: "Have you really never seen him? Fellow Daoist Wang, don't try to deceive Mr. Gao. You may not know how much hatred this person has with this sect. If fellow Daoist and the sect know that they do not revenge and intend to cover it up, it is an enemy of this sect!"
Before he finished speaking, a stream of spiritual pressure fell on Wang Cheng, making his mind sink as if he was carrying a heavy burden.
This practice of using power to suppress others with disagreement seems to be a hidden rule for high-level monks to low-level monks.
Although Wang Cheng was very disgusted with this, he was helpless.
At this moment, I could only reply more respectfully: "Senior, I have never seen the person I said. If I had seen this person, I would have gone to Huoyuan Ridge to report to Chixia Sect to receive the reward. How could I protect this person?"
"Oh, what you mean, do you know that Xiao Jianwen is wanted by this sect?"
The monk surnamed Gao raised his eyebrows, and his eyes looked at Wang Cheng with a look of surprise.
He obviously knew how far from Qingyun Sect was from Huoyuan Ridge where Chixia Sect was, so he was surprised that Wang Cheng knew about this.
Wang Cheng replied with a respectful look: "I dare not deceive my seniors. I only set out from Huoyuanling half a year ago to return to our sect. At that time, I happened to encounter several times that the noble monk was searching and arresting the red-faced Taoist."
"Is that so? Then tell me, what are the names of the monks of this sect you met at that time? What do they look like?"
The monk surnamed Gao's eyes flashed, and he asked with a look at Wang Cheng tightly.
When Wang Cheng heard this, he immediately replied with a embarrassed look on his face: "Senior, I'm making things difficult for me. When I was interrogated, the seniors and colleagues of the noble family never revealed any names!"
After saying that, he seemed to be afraid that the monk named Gao would not be satisfied with this answer, so he quickly added: "But I happen to remember a good memory and have a rough understanding of painting skills. I can draw portraits of several of them for my seniors to identify them!"
"Since that's the case, you can draw it."
The monk surnamed Gao waved his hand and issued an order in an unreasonable tone.
"Sister me."
Wang Cheng responded, and immediately took out the paper and pen and spread it on the ground and started painting.
He is a talisman maker, and he is proficient in painting, at least he can draw a rough figure. He soon painted the faces of the young man in red who he saw in Huoyuanling Square and another foundation-building monk in Chixia Sect that he later met.
"Please look at it, senior, I have painted it."
After Wang Cheng finished painting the portrait, he put away his brush and held two pieces of white paper in his hand and handed it to the monk named Gao.
"No need to read it, Gao will believe your previous words."
The monk surnamed Gao waved his hand, but did not take the drawing paper. Instead, he reached out to touch the storage bag, took out a small black porcelain bottle and threw it to Wang Cheng: "This [Concentric Worm] is given to you. If you find that Xiao Jianwen, you can kill the worm and report it to me immediately. After I catch this person, I will definitely receive a lot of rewards!"
"Yes, I must keep in mind the instructions of my senior."
Wang Cheng looked at the small black porcelain bottle in his hand, then put it in the storage bag, and then agreed in one bite.
"So, Gao said goodbye first."
As the monk surnamed Gao said, the flying sword under his feet turned and quickly flew towards the other spiritual peaks around him.
Seeing this, Wang Cheng waved immediately, calling Lu Xiulian, who saw this scene just now but did not dare to come forward to disturb him, and ordered in a deep voice: "Nephew Lu, look at the mulberry forest on this mountain first. If someone comes to ask you something again, just answer truthfully. I want to go back to Qingyun Peak first."
"Yes, my disciples follow the edict of the head."
Lu Xiulian nodded respectfully and then watched Wang Cheng leave with a sword.
Wang Cheng's approach was undoubtedly extremely correct, because when he arrived at Qingyun Peak, two foundation-building cultivators of Chixia Sect were confronting Lu Feng and Yu Shiyin, who were in charge of the mountain protection formation in the mountain gate, wanted to climb the mountain to search.
Qingyun Peak is where the mountain gate of Qingyun Gate is located, and it is the face of Qingyun Gate.
Without the presence of the leader Wang Cheng, Lu Feng and Yu Shiyin, how could Lu Feng and Yu Shiyin dared to allow the monks in the Foundation Establishment stage to easily enter the mountain gate, let alone open the mountain gate and be searched for the mountain.
However, the foundation-building cultivators of Chixia Sect are obviously used to being domineering. Small sects like Qingyun Sect don’t take them at all. When Wang Cheng arrived, after Lu Feng refused several times, they were ready to attack the mountain protection formation.
After Wang Cheng returned, the two of them stopped him directly, trying to use him to force Lu Feng and Yu Shiyin in the mountain gate to open the mountain protection formation.
"Why should the two seniors of Chixia Sect be so aggressive? Although this sect is small, it is also a sect recognized by Longshan Academy. With the [Sect Opening Order], if the two seniors forcefully attack the mountain gate of our sect, they can only force us to refuse it to death! At that time, the two seniors can kill all the cultivators of our sect. I am afraid that the two seniors will not be able to escape the liquidation of Longshan Academy!"
Wang Cheng looked at the two foundation-building cultivators of Chixia Sect in front of him with an ugly expression. With a silver light flashed in his hand, he summoned the [Sect Opening Order] of Qingyun Sect.
"It turns out that you are the head of Qingyun Sect."
A look of surprise flashed in the eyes of the two foundation-building monks of Chixia Sect. They couldn't help but look at each other. Then one of the monks who seemed to have a higher level of cultivation spoke out: "Your Excellency has misunderstood. We have no grudges with Qingyun Sect, so how could we attack your sect at will? But Xiao Jianwen is the mortal enemy of our sect. Recently, he fled to the area of your sect. We are also following the orders of our sect's Jindan Master Master to search all areas nearby. Please make it convenient."
"Wang can understand the feelings of the two seniors who are eager to search for the criminals, but how can you just enter the search just by saying a word from the two seniors?"
When Wang Cheng said this, he couldn't help but shouted with excitement: "If this matter is spread, wouldn't my Qingyun Sect become a laughing stock in the cultivation world? What kind of face will you have to gain a foothold here in the future!"
His posture of defending the dignity of Qingyun Sect to the death made the two foundation-building monks of Chixia Sect frown and did not know how to answer for a moment.
They are just acting overbearing, not without IQ. Of course, they know that what they are going to do is actually taking off the clothes of Qingyun Sect, which is a pure humiliation.
Originally, if Qingyun Gate was scared by them, it would be the best if they opened the mountain gate and searched it.
Now that they encounter a "hard" like Wang Cheng, and they clearly show the [Opening Order] and say the words of swearing to live and die with the mountain gate, they have to act cautiously.
After all, although the power of Chixia Sect is far superior to the Qingyun Sect, it is not as strong as to dare to ignore the ban on Longshan Academy. It is impossible to fight against Longshan Academy for the sake of the two foundation-building monks.
After hesitating for a while, the foundation-building cultivator of Chixia Sect who had made a sound before bowed to Wang Cheng and said, "President Wang calmed down first. In short, we must go in the mountain gate of your sect. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, not only will we not be able to afford to be guilty, but it will definitely not be a good thing for your sect!"
After saying that, he squeezed a smile on his face and smiled reluctantly at Wang Cheng and said, "But we are not searching for your sect, but we are visiting your sect's mountain gate on behalf of Chixia Sect to discuss the joint arrest of the evildoer Xiao Jianwen. What do you think of Master Wang?"
It's not about searching, but about visiting.
After changing this statement, Wang Cheng's face became much better.
He calmly withdrew the [Sect Opening Order] in his hand, then smiled softly and said, "Two seniors come to visit. This is the honor of Qingyun Sect. Naturally, the mountain gate should be opened to welcome you."
