Chapter 1371 The action begins
Although the Xuan Yingzhe of the Yunhai Sect acted behind the back of Master Yunyi, their plan was quite comprehensive.
To prevent the nun Jinghui from interfering, they personally brought over three elders—Xuan'e, Xuan Tao, and Xuan Hai—who had not left Tianyun Mountain for hundreds of years.
However, despite her meticulous planning, the leader of Xuan Ying overlooked one crucial detail.
That's Li Ruoxi.
Xuan'e and the other two could easily hold off Jinghui for an hour, but if Li Ruoxi were to intervene, the situation would be different.
Li Ruoxi's cultivation level is even higher than that of the nun Jinghui.
She just couldn't beat Dugu Chan, which doesn't mean she's bad at the game.
If Jinghui Shenni and Li Ruoxi join forces, Xuan'e and the other two will have no chance of winning. Not only will they be unable to restrain Jinghui Shenni, but the three of them will probably perish at Jiuhua Mountain tonight.
Jinghui Shenni knew Li Ruoxi's personality and her methods.
He also realized that he had only invited Li Ruoxi to Zenyue Nunnery for tea because she was in a bad mood that day, which was why Li Ruoxi had stayed there for several days without leaving.
Once the fighting starts on the temple side, Li Ruoxi will definitely make a move.
Even if you try to stop it yourself, it will be to no avail.
When the nun Jinghui saw Xuan'e and the other two appear tonight, she already guessed that the Yunhai Sect would make its move tonight.
As a nun, she no longer wanted to be involved in worldly affairs and grudges. To avoid conflict, she wanted to send Li Ruoxi away.
However, Li Ruoxi had no intention of avoiding the situation.
This left the nun Jinghui feeling rather helpless.
Xuan'e and the other two never expected that there would be a woman with a youthful face and white hair with the nun Jinghui.
However, the three of them were highly skilled and daring, and as long as this woman named Ruoxi did not reach the Heavenly Limit Realm, she would not be able to cause any trouble.
Xuan'e and the other two landed in the suspended pavilion from mid-air.
Xuan'e strolled around a few steps with her cane and said, "The nun has really found a good place. The scenery of this suspended pavilion is beautiful, with a panoramic view of the Jiuhua Mountains. Not to mention Jiuhua Mountain, even in the whole world, there are few blessed places like this."
The nun Jinghui said calmly, "Senior Xuan'e, you flatter me. This place is far inferior to the numerous floating islands scattered across Xingluo Peak."
Despite having reached the Heavenly Realm, Jinghui Shenni is not very old; she is not even five hundred years old yet.
Back when Xuan'e, Xuan Tao, and Xuan Hai roamed the world, Jing Hui's grandfather hadn't even been born yet.
When the nun Jinghui entered the world of cultivation, the three of them had already retired from the martial world and were living a carefree life.
However, the nun Jinghui had met these three people once before.
That was four hundred years ago, when I went with my senior sister, Zen Master Shuiyue, to Yunhai Sect to observe the inner sect assessment.
At that time, Jinghui was still a young nun practicing with her hair still intact, and she was not well-known in the world. She had seen three eminent people from the Yunhai Sect, including Xuan'e, from afar.
Of course, she had only met them; given her status at the time, she was not qualified to communicate or converse with these three seniors.
Things are different now. That little nun from back then has now become a world-renowned expert at the Heavenly Realm.
This is the practice.
It's not true that the longer you cultivate, the higher your cultivation level will be.
Xuan Tao and Xuan Hai didn't talk much. Years of living in seclusion had made them less adept at communicating with outsiders. It was mainly Xuan E who was exchanging pleasantries with the nun Jing Hui.
However, these old foxes who have lived for hundreds of years are all cunning and treacherous.
Xuan'e only talked to Jinghui about the scenery of Jiuhua Mountain and commented on some of the most powerful masters of the time, without mentioning her purpose for coming tonight.
As if it were an unspoken understanding, Jinghui did not mention again the matter of Yunhai Sect's plan to take action against Shen Feiyang.
The two sides acted like old friends who hadn't seen each other for centuries, and the scene was very harmonious.
Li Ruoxi sat back down on the wooden bench. She just watched quietly, her expression calm as still water. No one knew what the old woman was plotting.
at the same time.
Sometimes at the foot of the temple mountain.
One figure after another appeared around the temple.
The number of people was not very large, only a little over forty in total.
However, don't underestimate these forty-odd people.
They were all Xuan Ying practitioners of the Yunhai Sect. There were almost no young people like Yue Yinling. The youngest of them looked to be in their early forties, and more than half of them were elderly people with white hair.
Some of them participated in the suppression of the rebellion by the Yunhai Sect a few months ago.
At that time, Master Yunyi was worried that there were spies among the elders in the sect, so the main force to quell the rebellion did not dare to use the elders of the six academies and four branches of the Yunhai Sect. Instead, he secretly dispatched experts from some caves in the Tianyun Mountains.
These experts are all from the Yunhai Sect. Most of them live in the cave dwellings of independent cultivators within a radius of 500 miles centered on Xingluo Peak.
Master Yunyi was unaware that these old men were Xuan Ying practitioners.
However, they are the true masters within the Cloud Sea Sect.
The lowest cultivation level is the Celestial Realm, and the highest is the Peak of the Void Transformation Realm.
Among those white-haired old people, there were actually five or six who, like Yuan Jiugong, were elders of the Xuan generation.
However, within the Yunhai Sect, these people mostly held the empty title of elder and had no real power.
But this did not hinder these people's loyalty to the Yunhai Sect.
Some people's ancestors can be traced back two or three thousand years.
Within the imperial court of ordinary people, there were powerful and influential families.
They were powerful and influential families within the Yunhai Sect.
Although he held no real power, he controlled the lifeline of the Yunhai Sect.
The reason why Master Yunyi was able to rise to power smoothly back then was because these Xuan Ying practitioners chose him over Ye Fuyou. Otherwise, with Master Yunyi's limited power at the time, how could he have suppressed Ye Fuyou and his gang?
These people were not wearing masks, concealing their identities, or making any disguises.
It's not just unnecessary, it's also disdainful.
These forty or so people could easily wipe out a mid-level sect.
Dealing with Shen Feiyang would be more than enough.
Of course, the Shadow Warriors have mobilized more than just this many people tonight.
Under normal circumstances, the Shadow Masters will not take action, but once they do, it is a matter of life and death for the Cloud Sea Sect.
Since the leader of the Shadow Clan has decided to eliminate Shen Feiyang, a potential threat, he naturally intends to eradicate him completely.
Shadow had long ago figured out all of Shen Feiyang's influence within Jiuhua Mountain.
The main forces are located at Shiyou Temple and Sihai Manor, with more than a dozen other manors on the outskirts.
Now, varying numbers of experts from the Cloud Sea Sect have appeared around Shen Feiyang's forces.
Some groups consisted of three to five people, while others had seven or eight.
The largest group was Yunwu Manor, located dozens of miles southwest of Shiyou Temple, which had sixteen experts from the Yunhai Sect.
Originally, there weren't supposed to be so many people attacking Cloud Mist Manor, but it turns out that Ye Feng and the four girls also participated in the attack.
These five little guys aren't very skilled, but they still count as people.
