Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 132: See through
This change is when Yun Tianlan becomes a true immortal.
The birth of a true immortal has a huge and far-reaching impact on the entire Qixia world.
The most direct change is that the Qixia world is almost unified, and the six factions have become one super three.
The indirect change is that the attitude of the Yue Xi Party and its affiliated sects has also undergone tremendous changes.
In the past, the Xiyue Sect’s approach was to unite all small sects to fight against other sects. They used a combination of kindness and power to the major, medium and small sects.
After Qixia was unified, this approach immediately changed. The Xiyue Sect no longer pursues unity, because in a sense, all small sects now have to take orders from the Xiyue Sect. In this case, it is meaningless to focus on unity and cooperation with the outside world. After all, there is no external situation for them to face together.
So the policy of joint confrontation gradually turned into the emperor's mentality, the way of balance, encouraging internal fighting and weakening each other.
In this case, the internal struggles among the major, medium and small sects have rapidly increased, and various competitions have emerged one after another.
The battle between Xiaoyao Palace, Fire Lotus Sect, and Sanhua Sect also broke out. For cultivators, one or two hundred years is not a long time, and the hatred of the past has not been eliminated. With the two factions joining forces, life in Xiaoyao Palace has gradually become difficult. Fortunately, although the Xiyue Sect encourages internal fighting, it does not allow annexation to prevent it from becoming powerful. Therefore, although Xiaoyao Palace is starved, it can always maintain itself.
The struggle therefore continues.
It was at this time that the Qingzhu Sect appeared and formed an alliance with Xiaoyao Palace to confront it.
"At that time, my mother was under pressure from the two factions and felt very hard. The support the Qingzhu Sect could provide was limited. In order to deal with the two factions, my mother decided to practice the magical power of Tian Xiao Teng Yun. This magical power is the supreme secret of my Xiaoyao Palace. The power of the technique is astonishing, but it is not easy to practice. In order to succeed, I, Xiaoyao Palace, also exhausted all my assets, and even borrowed 10,000 spiritual jade from Tuoba Hong to purchase resource support."
On Baoyue Peak, Shen Qingdan spoke softly, with a sweet and melodious voice.
"Did you master it later?" Tang Jie asked.
"It's done." Shen Qingdan replied: "My mother was willing to take a big risk to practice this magical power, and then she and Tuo Bahong made an appointment with the Three Flowers Sect of the Fire Lotus Sect to fight on the shore of the seaside and on the top of the wave peak. How could it be? On the day of the expected battle, the Qingzhu Sect unexpectedly missed the appointment. We, Xiaoyao Palace, were outnumbered one to two and were ultimately defeated. The experts of Xiaoyao Palace suffered numerous casualties..."
Speaking of this, Shen Qingdan's voice became deeper and her eyes filled with tears.
She did not participate in that battle, but she saw that among the elders who went to fight, few came back alive, and her father died on the spot. Not only that, even her mother was seriously injured and eventually died of her injuries shortly after returning. Because of this, she was appointed to become the palace master of Xiaoyao Palace, but what happened next was a mess and two parties wantonly encroaching on the power of Xiaoyao Palace.
Shortly afterwards, Tuoba Hong appeared and said that he did not intentionally break the promise, but that he was actually stopped by the two factions who invited strong men. Despite this, he was willing to continue to fulfill his covenant and protect Xiaoyao Palace, and even launched a strong pursuit of Shen Qingdan.
There comes a time when she really wants to trust the other person.
"He was extremely gentle to me during that time, and I almost believed him." Shen Qingdan said leisurely.
"Almost?"
Shen Qingdan nodded: "Almost."
It turns out that just when Shen Qingdan was almost ready to believe Tuoba Hong, she received a piece of news - neither the Fire Lotus Sect nor the Sanhua Sect had ever sent anyone to stop the Green Bamboo Sect.
She was completely shocked.
She didn't understand what was going on and could only question Tuoba Hong. Tuo Bahong naturally denied it. Although what he said was plausible, Shen Qingdan still had knots in her heart. She could no longer believe Tuo Bahong easily and gradually became alienated.
As time went by, Tuo Bahong knew that Shen Qingdan didn't trust him, so he had less contact with him.
Without the protection of Qingzhu Sect, the two factions stepped up their offensive again. Spiritual veins were robbed, spiritual fields were destroyed, trade routes were cut off, and offerings were robbed... Almost all the troubles that a sect can encounter, Xiaoyao Palace began to encounter , disciples who go out for training will be attacked, and the treasures they obtain will be hijacked. The overt and covert attacks are always continuous, making Shen Qingdan very busy.
"Those were the most difficult days in my life." Shen Qingdan said leisurely: "I almost couldn't hold on several times, but fortunately I finally withstood it..."
Tang Jie understood. When he looked at Tuo Bahong again, his eyes were different.
Tuoba Hong has shouted: "Immortal Lord, these are all words of the Fire Lotus Sect and the Sanhua Sect to sow discord. They did invite a large number of masters to stop my Qingzhu Sect that day. In that battle, everyone from my Qingzhu Sect and others They are all injured too, Tuoba Hong’s heart can be learned from the world!”
Tang Jie thought for a while and asked: "Who did they send to stop you?"
"One Zifu, three transformed souls, and one Qiantian state of mind. Our Qingzhu Sect has limited strength and cannot break through."
"Where to block?"
"Feilu Mountain."
"What does it look like?"
"All faces are covered with illusions and cannot be distinguished."
"What kind of magic was used?"
"There are so many magic techniques that I can't even mention them."
"Then speak slowly and tell us what you saw during the fight."
"After a hundred years, I have forgotten a lot."
"Then tell me as much as you want." Tang Jie asked directly.
He didn't know whether what Tuo Bahong said was true or false, but he believed that if Tuo Bahong was lying, then he must not have carefully prepared the lie - because Shen Qingdan was not qualified to interrogate him like this.
In addition, after more than a hundred years, any lies have been forgotten.
So at this moment, Tang Jie kept asking questions, asking questions urgently and quickly, not even giving Tuo Bahong time to think. If he is indeed lying, the more and faster he answers, the easier it will be to reveal the truth.
According to Tuoba Hong at this moment, this group of interceptors suddenly appeared without revealing their true identities, and came specifically to intercept them. In order to hide their identities, various schools of magic were used during the attack, so it was difficult to judge their origin. In the end, Qingzhumen was delayed for a long time and missed the opportunity to fight.
After hearing this, Tang Jie thought for a while and continued to ask:
"Are there any casualties?"
Tuo Bahong shook his head: "Those people were invited by the two factions to intercept and fight to the death, so there were not many casualties. Even so, the injuries to the elders were not serious."
"Since the opponent doesn't want to fight to the death, why not force a breakthrough?"
Tuo Bahong obviously did not expect that Tang Jie would ask such a question. He was stunned and said: "The opponent has been prepared for a long time and has set up an interception, making it difficult to break through."
"What kind of interception?"
"This..." Tuo Bahong thought for a while and replied: "It is the line between sea and sky."
Tang Jie said without hesitation: "Although the protection of the sea and sky is strong, it cannot cover all directions. It can be circumvented."
Tuoba Hong said anxiously: "We also added a splendid sky net to block all directions."
"You lied!" Tang Jie suddenly shouted.
Tuo Bahong was shocked and instinctively said: "I didn't."
Tang Jie has shouted: "Splendid Tianluo is the secret treasure of the Cuiyu Sect, just like the Thunder Bead of the Heavenly Evil Sect, it is the most obvious mark. You said before that those people hide their identities and use various spells, then How can you use something like the Splendid Dragnet?"
Tuoba Hong was stunned and replied: "That may be the other party's intention to frame the fault!"
"Since you intend to frame the blame, did you go to the Cuiyu Gate later? It's best to think about it before you answer this question, because the Cuiyu Gate is nearby."
Tuoba Hong was shocked.
Looking at his look, Tang Jie already understood: "You haven't been there, right? Because there are no such things at all, you made them up."
Sweat dripped from Tuoba Hong's forehead.
He didn't expect that Tang Jie would expose his lies in such a simple way. He was completely unprepared and his whole body trembled with shock.
After a moment, Tuoba Hongyi knelt down and said, "The Immortal is wise and I dare not lie to you. I, the Qingzhu Sect, did break the promise when it came to the fight."
"It's true, it was you who harmed my Xiaoyao Palace." Shen Qingdan glared at Tuo Bahong angrily.
Tuo Bahong already said loudly: "The palace master is serious, our Qingzhu Sect just broke the promise, but we have never attacked Xiaoyao Palace. How can we call it a harmful word? I ask the Immortal Lord to warn me!"
Shen Qingdan was speechless.
Yes, so what if it is proven?
Tuo Bahong is just a breach of contract at best, and it cannot be called harming anyone. But without Tuo Bahong's promise, his parents might not have died. What's more, Tuo Bahong shamelessly used the 10,000 spirit jade to force herself to marry him. She despised him, but she couldn't do anything about it. She was so angry and helpless that tears fell down.
Since inheriting Xiaoyao Palace, she has endured countless wind and frost swords without crying. Unexpectedly, she shed tears now. Knowing that it was Tang Jie's appearance, he lost all his strength in an instant.
Tang Jie patted her shoulder, comforted her, and said at the same time: "It should be true to say that he has not attacked Xiaoyao Palace, but it is not necessarily true to say that he has no intention of harming others."
Tuoba Hong was shocked when he heard this: "I don't know what the Immortal Lord meant by this."
Tang Jie said leisurely: "If Qingdan marries you, Xiaoyao Palace will probably not exist for a long time, right? By then, the two factions of Qingzhumen Xiaoyao Palace will merge, even if Xiyue Even pie can't stop it."
Tuo Bahong was shocked when he heard this.
This Tuoba Hong was originally an ambitious person, but he came from a small sect and found it difficult to achieve anything. In order to build Daqingzhumen, he put all his efforts into it.
The dispute between Xiaoyao Palace and the Three Flowers Sect of the Fire Lotus Sect gave Tuoba Hong an opportunity.
Since the Xiyue Sect only allows internal fighting and does not allow annexation, although the Three Flowers Sect of the Fire Lotus Sect has been able to defeat Xiaoyao Palace, it has never been able to eliminate Xiaoyao Palace.
Tuo Bahong saw the right opportunity in this situation and deliberately made friends with Xiaoyao Palace, just to wait for the opportunity to plot.
According to his plan, he would first induce Xiaoyao Palace to start a war with the two factions, then lend money to Xiaoyao Palace, and finally use the hands of the two factions to kill Xiaoyao Palace Master, and he would take the opportunity to propose marriage to the younger palace master. In this way, Not to mention embracing beauty, he can even annex Xiaoyao Palace without any bloodshed.
As Tang Jie said, even the Xiyue Sect has nothing to say about this form of annexation.
Since then ~IndoMTL.com~ Qingzhu Sect has naturally grown in strength.
This was originally a seamless plan.
But something went wrong during the implementation process, that is, the Fire Lotus Sect and the Sanhua Sect are not fools.
After discovering that Tuo Bahong was very courteous to Shen Qingdan, he guessed some of Tuo Bahong's plans, so he took the initiative to send people to release the news to Shen Qingdan, saying that he had not sent anyone to stop Qingzhumen.
Although Tuo Bahong excused this lie by saying that he was "divorcing enemies", it still succeeded in planting doubts in Shen Qingdan's heart, and she still refused to marry Tuo Bahong.
More than a hundred years later, Tuo Bahong thought that all the evidence had disappeared, and there was no longer any evidence to prove his secret conspiracy.
But he didn't expect that in front of Tang Jie, he seemed to be transparent.
With just a few words, Tang Jie saw through everything about him.
