subordinates dare not

Meng Fuyuan was startled, and then softly comforted: "My condolences."

Chao Zixuan lowered his eyes, his eyelashes trembled violently, the corners of his lips were stained with a helpless wry smile, the thick yearning between his brows and eyes seemed to turn into water droplets in the next moment, his chest heaved violently several times, and he took deep breaths to suppress his sudden Tears, "I am like this... If he sees it in the sky, he should laugh at me again..."

The battle against demons 150 years ago should have been a silent memory that was about to be forgotten. However, at this moment, Meng Fuyuan suddenly realized that the success or failure of life and death in this war still has nothing to do with people today. They are closely linked together, and they are inseparable from each other.

150 years is a long and sufficient life for those who do not practice martial arts and Taoism, but for everyone in the world, it may be just a flick of a finger, just a short moment.

On the other side, Chao Zixuan's face was calm and unruffled. He had probably sorted out his unexpected sadness, and said softly, "Say it? What do you want to ask? I can tell you everything."

"Just ask here. There is no one else here. The Zhuying Water Pavilion is a forbidden area, and no one dares to trespass."

Meng Fuyuan asked straight to the point: "I want to ask Wenge...Zixuan about the "Lingyuan Gongfa"."

Completely freed from the out-of-control emotions before, Chao Zixuan still thought to tease: "Who is Ge Zixuan?"

Meng Fuyuan couldn't help laughing, and said after a while: "Zixuan, stop teasing me."

"Okay." Chao Zixuan's voice was not too loud, just enough for the other party to hear clearly, "Then can you ask more specifically? There are too many things involved in "Lingyuan Gongfa", and I can't finish it in a while. "

Meng Fuyuan first bowed to Chao Zixuan when he heard the words, and then said in a deep voice: "If you offend someone below Meng, please don't mind."

Seeing this, Chao Zixuan also suppressed the smile on his lips. The next moment, Meng Fuyuan's question might be the other side of a little-known story in Jianghu, and it turned out——

"It is rumored that Shen Zhuo, the former head of the Linghao Pavilion, used the "Lingyuan Gongfa" to wipe out the Demon Cult in one fell swoop, but someone told me that the "Lingyuan Gongfa" is a demon cult's sorcery."

Chao Zixuan's expression turned gloomy, "That bald donkey told you, right?"

Seeing Meng Fuyuan stunned for a moment, Chao Zixuan already had the answer in his heart, and the look of disdain on his face increased a bit, "That shitty Master Jueming, he talks nonsense, and he loves to talk nonsense to smear my master!"

Before Meng Fuyuan could say anything more, Chao Zixuan continued to complain angrily, "When I edited "History of Lingyuan Rivers and Lakes" with him, he pointed fingers at me. I want to briefly describe my master in the history book. He despises me for spending too much useless pen and ink!"

Meng Fuyuan thought inwardly: ...so you wrote the paragraph that made Shen Zhuo's hype fall.

Meng Fuyuan wanted to know the inside story, so he followed Chao Zixuan's wishes and said, "Since that Master Jueming is talking nonsense, what is the truth?"

However, Chao Zixuan was still immersed in Jueming's "personal grievances", angrily, and answered irrelevantly, "I guess he was going to tell you, saying that he deliberately concealed the fact that the master of Linghao Pavilion was practicing demon cult sorcery, Afraid that everyone in the world will point fingers at my master and speak ill of my master, and my master's reputation will be ruined from then on? And he said that because of this, he has a disturbed conscience, sleepless nights, and tortured by his conscience?"

Meng Fuyuan was terrified in his heart, and the shock on his face could not be completely concealed. What Chao Zixuan said... was actually the same as what Jueming said.

Seeing that his own words made Meng Fuyuan show a shocking appearance, Chao Zixuan sneered and said: "This bald donkey really made him say all the good things!"

Chao Zixuan said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid the owner doesn't know, but the "Lingyuan Gongfa" is the result of my master's painstaking research for decades. Yes, it turned out to be a demon cult's sorcery when it got into that bald donkey's mouth! It's really short-sighted, a frog in a well!"

"Ling Yuan Kung Fu" turned out to be a kung fu developed by the master of Linghao Pavilion himself? !But why did it become the sorcery of the devil's religion that Jueming talked about?

Meng Fuyuan hurriedly said: "Can Zixuan tell me more about it?"

"Naturally." Chao Zixuan nodded, "After my master passed away, I originally wanted to restore the great battle as realistically as possible in "History of Lingyuan Jianghu", because my master also taught me before his death, 'If a person breaks his faith, he will not be famous. Da', 'more fiction is worse than less truth', but that Master Jueming and the head of the Heavenly Quan Sect of the Beiqi Sect colluded together and stopped me from writing truthfully, saying that if I insist on my own way, my master As a result, you will be ruined and your reputation will be ruined for thousands of years.”

"They say I'm short-sighted, but they are the ones who are really short-sighted." Chao Zixuan said coldly, "Nowadays, the decent martial arts in Jianghu emphasize real swords and guns, and fight with the body, while the devil's martial arts advocates transforming the spirit of the world and all things, concentrating energy and spirit, borrowing Do it with strength, hit things in the air. The owner is smart, tell me, which one is not easy to lose, and is not easy to be seriously injured by the enemy, and which one can change thousands of things, change a thousand catties, have endless mysteries, and infinite power?"

Without waiting for Meng Fuyuan to answer, Chao Zixuan continued: "Of course it is the latter. I understood the truth 100 years ago, don't the other sects who enjoy reputations in the Jianghu also understand? But why do you still avoid the martial arts of the Demon Dao? Talking about discoloration, but stubbornly insisting on the physical combat of "so-called decent" martial arts?"

Meng Fuyuan already had a vague guess in his mind, and was about to speak when he heard Chao Zixuan's angry voice——

"Isn't it for the sake of face, for the so-called sincerity and loyalty? But blindly rejecting magic and martial arts is a righteous person?"

"Just because people who use demonic martial arts do all kinds of evil, so demonic martial arts also become evil ghosts with green faces and fangs. They are all afraid of being different, and they are all afraid of becoming the target of public criticism. They follow everyone's advice, and no one dares to speak out, but they forget that it is not the demons who are wrong. Martial arts, but ruthless demon cultists."

"Linghaoge kungfu is famous for its vigor, but it is too rigid and easy to break. After a hundred years, Linghaoge kungfu has also reached the point where it is difficult to carry out and cannot be improved. In the end, it can only develop in the direction of magic martial arts. The mainstream body of the world The end of mortal martial arts is luck in the end. Not only our Linghao Pavilion, but the rest of the sects cannot escape this fate. It is only a matter of time. This is the inevitable trend of the whole world. If they blindly reject The mechanism of the magic way will only be eliminated by the rivers and lakes in the end, and it will never recover from it."

"It's just that my master woke up much earlier than everyone else, so he compiled "Lingyuan Gongfa" with great painstaking efforts."

After a long while, Chao Zixuan said helplessly, "Actually, there are many smart people who understand this truth. In the battle against demons, my master told all the participants that he had the trump card of "Lingyuan Gongfa" in order to boost morale. , so that everyone does not have to worry too much, and the final victory still belongs to decent."

"In order to convince everyone, my master bluntly stated that the principle of "Lingyuan Gongfa" is similar to the martial arts of the Demon Sect. However, according to the letter sent by my master, there were not many people who opposed it at the time, and there were even many who agreed. A voice of approval."

"This shows that there are many knights in the rivers and lakes who also know that the evolution of mainstream martial arts can't be refined in the end, and when they reach the bottleneck, they must take the path of the Demon Cult. But there must be someone who takes the lead in clarifying this point of view, and then there will be more Supportive voices. Otherwise, everyone pretends to be confused, and in the end they will take more detours and set limits for themselves.”

"I originally wanted to take the opportunity of compiling "The History of Lingyuan Rivers and Lakes" to gradually change everyone's stereotypes of magic and martial arts, but I was stopped by Jueming and the previous suzerain of the Beiqi Sect." Chao Zixuan shook his head with a wry smile, "Actually, what they said is also true. right."

"Anyone who has this ideological awareness is a person who has reached the peak of martial arts long ago and has fallen into a stagnant situation. Those people rushed to the battlefield with heroism and courage, and most of them have died in the battle of eliminating demons. There are still some martial arts who have not yet reached this level. They don’t understand my master’s good intentions at all. They only know black and white, and they hurt the devil’s sect and the martial arts of the devil’s way to be worthless.”

Chao Zixuan looked at Meng Fuyuan, his eyes were dark, and mixed emotions emerged, "Jueming didn't tell you the whole truth, he still concealed something from you, maybe he didn't believe it, after many years of martial arts, the mainstream of martial arts is the magic sect's technique."

"They don't believe it, no one believes it, so it's useless for me to say more."

"Some people claim to be 'the whole world is drunk and I am alone awake', but they don't know that they are the chaotic and ignorant people. They all think that I am talking crazy, and I am talking nonsense."

Chao Zixuan lowered his head and smiled wryly, his gaze was erratic, and he seemed to be immersed in a long time of silent memories, "I couldn't say no to those two at the time, so I had to compromise. Their words are not unreasonable. Besides, I don't want Master to be cast aside by thousands of people after his death. , my master came cleanly, and he will leave cleanly. Therefore, the "History of Lingyuan Jianghu" tries to be as simple as possible in the battle against demons, blurring the vision, and even... confounding black and white."
