Chapter 376: Down the River to Yanzhou

Xu Beiyou rose up with the sword, volleyed in the air, crossed Biluo Lake, crossed Wusi Yuan, Duolun River, and entered the Xiulong grassland about dozens of miles away, there was moist water vapor rushing to the face, only to see a big river flowing eastward, the waves were churning, and the water vapor was filled.

This is the Qinghe River, which will go all the way to the Central Plains from here, and finally flow into the sea in Qizhou.

Xu Beiyou landed on the edge of the Qinghe River, looked at the surging river, and took a deep breath.

It is said that the sword qi is like a long river, and the sword qi is like a big river, and this time I saw the river with my own eyes, and I had some feelings, not that I wanted to watch the river and realize the Tao, but I remembered many past events.

Since he left the imperial capital, it has been almost half a year in the blink of an eye, during this time, he started on the bank of the Qinghe River, killed Zhongli Anning, who blocked the road, crossed the river, defeated Chenye and Murong Xuanyin, solved the crisis in the Jiangdu, first went to Huzhou, one person and one sword forced back the army of King Wei, and on the way back, one person slaughtered the Demon Palace, and then went to Shu, went to southern Xinjiang, killed Li Fenggu, and Zhao Qing, Lan Yu and others teamed up to kill Zhu Jiuyin, and then returned to Huzhou Liangxiang, defeated and retreated outside the city, and finally went to the grassland snowy mountain to suppress the four living Buddhas of the Molun Temple, and helped Qiu Si to regain control of the Molun Temple.

When he left the imperial capital, he once said that he was concerned about the affairs of the world and stepped on the uneven road of the Central Plains. Looking back now, it can be regarded as a prophecy, he has traveled all the way and has traveled thousands of miles, almost sleeplessly, both physically and mentally, he is tired, just because of the general trend of the world, he does not dare to have half a minute of respite, he wanted to rest in the Molun Temple for a while, but he temporarily changed his mind and decided to return to the imperial capital first.

This is a wild place, there are no people for a hundred miles, Xu Beiyou sits alone on the bank of the river, his hands outstretched, slender and pale.

These hands do not have the feeling of crystal jade of the Daomen Great True People, because in the past time, they have been constantly injured and regenerated flesh and blood, just like the severed arms of ice dust, after all, they are missing a little bit of the accumulation of years, and they are slightly out of harmony with the whole.

However, in the eyes of the people in the Daomen, these hands can be said to be stained with blood, and I don't know how many of my fellow disciples have died in these hands. Of course, if you count carefully, you can still count them, but all the people in the Daomen who can die under these hands are all famous real people, and all of them are highly respected people in the Daomen, so the owner of these hands can be said to be famous in the Daomen, and in the eyes of many young Daomen disciples, the name Xu Beiyou is tantamount to a peerless demon.

Who would have thought that the young man who studied and practiced swords back then has now become both the Optimus Pillar of Daqi and the peerless ferocious of Daomen.

It is said that the world is impermanent, and it is true.

At this time, in Yanzhou, which is about six or seven hundred miles away from the place where Xu Beiyou is located, there happened to be a monk event.

Since the death of Zhang Zhaonu, the leading figure in Yanzhou, Kunshan, which was once close to the "Nine Streams", was separated and collapsed, and Xiao Bai, the king of Qi, who had not yet inherited the unification, ignored several warnings from Xiao Li, the king of Yanzhou, and took the opportunity to send a large number of his subordinates into Yanzhou to add fuel to the fire, completely destroying the foundation of Kunshan, making the Yanzhou monks show a situation of scattered sand. In addition, Xiao Li, the master of Yanzhou, was later deposed by Xiao Zhinan and imprisoned in the imperial capital because of his conspiracy with Daomen Fu Zhongtian, which made the various sects in Yanzhou completely appear to be chaotic and withered.

This pattern lasted until the arrival of the Sword Sect, and finally began to change.

The world knows the saying that the three religions and the nine streams of the hundred schools of thought, the three religions are behemoths, such as the Daomen and the like can even be the enemy country, the nine streams are also a hegemon, whenever the world is in turmoil, help the king from the dragon, hide behind the scenes to stir up the general trend of the world, as for the hundred schools, it is inevitable that it is a little miserable, either become a vassal of the big sects, or simply a puppet supported by the magnates, as for those who do not rely on both, they can only survive with difficulty.

The Sword Sect, which was at its peak back then, was overturned because of the death of the sect master Shangguan Xianchen and the rebellion of the elder Xiao Shen, and many small sects were split, and the Chu Clan's Sword House in Yanzhou was one of them. On the bright side, the reason why the Kunshan Sect advocated that the slaves would go to Jiangdu was precisely because the Chu Clan's Sword House was unwilling to be swallowed up by Kunshan and went to Jiangdu to ask the Sword Sect for help, but everyone knew very well in their hearts that the Chu Clan's Sword House was just an introduction, even if there was no Chu Clan's Sword House, Zhang Zhaonu would still go to Jiangdu, and the culprit of Zhang Zhaonu's death was actually Xu Beiyou, who would dare to go to Xu Beiyou's trouble?

The persimmon picked up the soft pinch, since he didn't dare to trouble Xu Beiyou, then the Chu clan Jianlu became a scapegoat. Therefore, the fate of Chu's sword house was very miserable, after Zhang Zhaonu's death, he was killed by Kunshan Manmen, and Chu Tiankuo, the owner of the house, died on the spot, and his head was cut off and taken to pay tribute to Zhang Zhaonu. Only one old man who went out to run errands escaped by luck, after the old man heard the tragedy of the Chu family's sword house, he deeply felt that the world was big but there was nowhere to stay, and then he thought about it, and simply gritted his teeth and went to Jiangdu.

This old man's surname is Jiao, Xingsan, called Jiao San, after coming to Jiangdu, he was first summoned by Xu Beiyou, and then under the instruction of Xu Beiyou, he was hidden and protected by the Sword Sect. When Xu Beiyou took office as the sect leader of the Sword Sect, Bingchen, Zhang Xueyao, and Qin Mumian became the three elders, and the Sword Sect at this time was no longer confined to a corner of Jiangdu, at the invitation of Xiao Zhinan, Qin Mumian personally took Jiao San to Yanzhou, and officially intervened in the internal affairs of the Yanzhou monks in the name of the Chu Clan's Sword House.

After Qin Mumian arrived in Yanzhou, he used thunderous means, and with the secret assistance of the Secret Guard Mansion here, he killed several culprits who slaughtered the Chu Clan's Sword Mansion in one fell swoop, shocking Yanzhou. However, several major snakes in Yanzhou also took this opportunity to join forces, wanting to break their wrists with this strong dragon crossing the river, and even held a so-called hero conference, under the auspices of two earth immortal monks, and the leaders of various sects in Yanzhou set the tone to expel the Sword Sect.

During this period, there are many scattered cultivators who pay attention to fishing in troubled waters, although today's Sword Sect is not as declining as in previous years, and there are signs of reproducing the heyday of the year, but in the final analysis, the foundation of the Sword Sect is still in the Jiangnan Jiangdu, and now there are Daomen who have been enemies with the Sword Sect for thousands of years are eyeing each other, and it is impossible for the Sword Sect to put too much energy on the Yanzhou side.

As for the new Sword Sect Master, if it was just included in the "Three Saints" by the Heavenly Machine List, there would still be some doubts, but after Xu Beiyou almost reversed the situation in the south of the Yangtze River with his own strength, there were no more doubts, and even very few people thought that Xu Beiyou's combat power had ranked first among the "Three Saints", and even Qiu Ye, who had maintained the title of the first person in the world for many years, was not his opponent. Similar remarks have already spread all over the world, it is impossible for these Yanzhou monks not to know, they should understand the horror of that Sword Sect Master, but it is still the same sentence, how can such a big man come to Yanzhou if he wants to fight to the death with Daomen in Jiangnan?

If they can't come, why should they be afraid? Since Zhang Zhaonu could die in Jiangdu back then, how could Qin Mumian not be driven out of Yanzhou now?

In short, due to various reasons, the turmoil in Yanzhou is getting bigger and bigger, there are nearly 1,000 people, it can be said that it is a mixture of fish and dragons, and the movement is so big, not only that the secret guard mansion and garrison in Yanzhou are like a great enemy, but even Xiao Zhinan in the imperial capital city is alarmed.
