Ren Woxing noticed her expression.
"There are two kinds of people in this world: those who are willing to pay any price for their beliefs and those who are exceptionally gifted."
Ren Woxing said slowly.
"These two types of people often unleash unimaginable power when faced with dire circumstances. In my opinion, he should be the first type."
Ren Yingying thought for a moment.
indeed so.
Last year, she sent more than 20 experts to hunt down Jiang Ning, but Jiang Ning killed them all. Later, she encountered Jiang Ning in Hanzhong and was chased for 300 miles. She even fought six people and killed two of them, but lost Peach Blossom Fairy and Peach Fruit Fairy.
Although the Six Immortals of Peach Valley were mentally unstable, they were all genuine first-rate masters with considerable internal strength, yet Jiang Ning managed to kill two of them.
Although the Peach Valley Six Immortals were still injured by Yue Buqun at that time, Jiang Ning had also been chasing her for several days and nights, and her physical strength and internal energy were even more depleted. Under such circumstances, the fact that the opponent could still suppress the Peach Valley Six Immortals shows her strength and talent.
The most important thing is the other person's beliefs.
Although what the other party said in Xiangyang at the beginning was naive and childish, and made people laugh, she couldn't laugh anymore.
Because she discovered that the other party truly believed this and acted accordingly, and what was most frightening was that he seemed to have begun to have the ability to do so.
"This kind of person is the most terrifying; they have unwavering beliefs that will never waver until death."
Ren Woxing coldly uttered a few words.
"He must be killed."
Before meeting Jiang Ning, Ren Woxing didn't care about him. But now that he had met him and learned more about Jiang Ning from Ren Yingying, his killing intent towards Jiang Ning became very strong, at one point second only to Dongfang Bubai.
Ren Yingying remained silent.
She also longed to kill Jiang Ning.
"Brother Xiang."
Ren Woxing turned to look at Xiang Wentian.
"That kid cut off your arm, do you want revenge?"
……
Fengchan Terrace.
The departure of Ren Woxing and the Sun Moon Sect brought a sigh of relief to many, especially Fang Zheng.
As the leader of the righteous path, although he had never actually fought the Sun Moon Sect, he still regularly chanted slogans of opposing the Sun Moon Sect. If a fight had really broken out just now, Shaolin would definitely not have been able to escape.
Moreover, Shaoshi Mountain is not far away, and if a real fight breaks out, it will definitely be a huge blow to Shaolin, which Fang Zheng would certainly not want.
Now things are fine. At least Shaolin won't suffer any losses. As for the internal problems of the Five Mountains Sword Sect after Ren Woxing, that's none of Shaolin's business.
At most, he can offer a few words of advice, but if the other person really doesn't listen, there's nothing he can do.
Chapter 388: Emei Sect Again
After the Sun Moon Sect left, the martial arts practitioners present all turned their attention to the Five Mountains Sword Sect.
They hadn't forgotten that the Five Mountains Sword Sects had almost come to blows just now, only to be temporarily halted by the arrival of the Sun Moon Sect. Now that the Sun Moon Sect had left, everyone present was very concerned about whether the two sides would fight again.
"Zuo Lengchan!"
as predicted.
Tianmen Daoist was the first to speak.
Tianmen Daoist stepped forward, his eyes turning cold as he looked at Zuo Lengchan.
"Today, I'm going to settle things with you."
"Humph."
Zuo Lengchan sneered, glanced at Yue Buqun and Master Mo, and finally looked at Abbess Dingxian.
“Master, the three sects of Mount Tai, Mount Hua, and Mount Heng insist that I was the one who did all this, and they want to settle accounts with me and the Songshan Sect. What is the Hengshan Sect’s decision?”
Although Zuo Lengchan secretly made many moves to annex the Five Mountains Sword Sects, such as assassinating Tianmen Daoist, sending spies to the Huashan Sect, and bribing people within the Hengshan Sect, he has not yet made any moves against the Hengshan Sect. At the beginning of the year, he sent people to ambush the three sects. Apart from the Taishan Sect suffering heavy losses, the Hengshan Sect did not suffer any casualties.
There is not much animosity between the Hengshan Sect and the Songshan Sect at present.
Therefore, Zuo Lengchan inquired about the Hengshan Sect's attitude.
Yue Buqun and Mr. Mo Da had already made their stance clear before: they would stand with the Taishan Sect through thick and thin, so there was no need to ask again.
Master Dingxian did not speak immediately, but sighed softly.
"Leader Zuo, the Five Mountains Sword Sect was originally established to deal with the Demonic Sect. The alliance of the five sects is also for mutual assistance, not for the ambition of any one sect or family. You are willing to attack your allies for the sake of the Five Mountains Alliance. Please forgive me for not being able to understand this. The Hengshan Sect cannot stand idly by either."
Master Dingxian was a nun with a gentle personality, unlike Master Dingyi who was short-tempered and did not like to commit many killings.
However, the Hengshan Sect cannot and should not stand idly by in the face of today's events.
"Ha ha ha ha."
Zuo Lengchan laughed loudly.
"Now that things have come to this, there's no point in me saying anything more. Since you're going to fight amongst yourselves, then let's do it."
Zuo Lengchan's words signified a formal break between the two sides.
The war is about to start.
Jiang Ning narrowed his eyes slightly.
At this moment, his hands were empty. He had already returned the sword to Lu Dayou, and his own sword had shattered during his battle with Xiang Wentian.
It doesn't matter, he can just grab any weapon from the other side when the fight starts.
Moreover, he doesn't necessarily have to use a sword.
Jiang Ning then looked at Yue Buqun.
Yue Buqun and Ren Woxing fought for a long time, and they probably used up a lot of their internal energy. I wonder if they can still deal with Zuo Lengchan.
Besides Yue Buqun, only he could deal with Zuo Lengchan. If Yue Buqun's internal energy was depleted, then he would face Zuo Lengchan.
Feeling that he was being watched, Yue Buqun turned around and saw that it was Jiang Ning looking at him.
He had already understood what the disciple meant from Jiang Ning's eyes.
Yue Buqun nodded slightly, and when no one was paying attention, he made a hand gesture to Jiang Ning from under his sleeve.
Don't worry, he was holding back when he was hitting me.
"Abbot, aren't you going to stop them?"
Upon seeing this, Kunlun Sect Leader Zhenshanzi frowned.
The Songshan Sect has over 800 members, while the Huashan, Taishan, Hengshan, and Hengshan Sects together have over 700 members, bringing the total to over 1,500.
I can't even imagine what it would be like if they started fighting.
This is different from the Jianghu forces under Ren Yingying's command that surrounded Mount Hua last year. The Five Mountains Sword Sect is a major power, and its disciples are all elites. The fighting will be more intense and more brutal.
"Hey."
Fang Zheng sighed, looking helpless.
“I also want to stop it, but this is an internal matter of the Five Mountains Sword Sect, and it is inconvenient for us outsiders to interfere.”
Unlike the Sun Moon Sect, which was an enemy and Fang Zheng could not remain uninvolved, the Five Mountains Sword Sect was different. Shaolin could stand aside and had a good reason to do so.
The Five Mountains Sword Sect Alliance has been around for a century, and a small circle has formed within it. They usually can't get a word in edgewise, so now they have a reason not to take action.
"Fighting among ourselves? Bah!"
Linghu Chong couldn't stand Zuo Lengchan no matter how he looked at him. Now that they were on opposing sides, he no longer needed to consider Zuo Lengchan's status as an elder, and spoke even more boldly.
"You despicable scoundrel, how dare you utter the words 'fratricide'? I think you have a really thick skin."
Zuo Lengchan stared coldly at Linghu Chong.
Ren Woxing was right, that little beast has a really foul mouth.
"There's no point in talking any more, just get started."
Zuo Lengchan said coldly.
At this point, there's no use in arguing; the other side is determined to fight him.
However, he wasn't afraid, as this was the home ground of his Songshan Sect, giving him a home-field advantage.
The problem is that the opposing team has a lot of skilled players.
Originally, Songshan had thirteen bodyguards, but four of them died on Mount Tai, leaving nine. With Zuo Lengchan, Songshan now has only ten top-tier masters on the surface.
The opposing Guanghua Mountain Sect has six top-tier experts. Excluding Cheng Buyou, who is still recovering from his injuries, none of the five top-tier experts who came are easy to deal with. Only Ning Zhong, being a woman, is naturally weaker, and Linghu Chong, who has only recently broken through to the top tier and has not yet achieved any outstanding feats, seems to be easier to deal with.
The remaining Yue Buqun, Jiang Ning, and Feng Buping are all more difficult to deal with than the last.
Especially Jiangning.
This is a ruthless man; his growth story is a bloody and tearful tale of evil.
In addition to Master Mo Da from the Hengshan School, Daoist Tianmen from the Taishan School, and San Ding from the Hengshan School, the number of experts on the opposing side was not much less than that of the Songshan School, and in fact, the overall quality was higher.
If a real fight breaks out, the Songshan Sect might suffer a loss.
However, Zuo Lengchan did make some preparations.
Since he came to power, he has secretly recruited and subdued many underworld experts, who are now hiding in the crowd. If a fight breaks out, these people will all step in.
In addition, the forces he had subdued were also hidden in various places in Songshan Mountain in preparation for the Five Mountains Alliance Conference.
Zuo Lengchan made thorough preparations for this Five Mountains Alliance Conference.
If these hidden forces are also taken into account, Zuo Lengchan is not afraid at all. If Ren Woxing hadn't suddenly intervened, the two sides would have already started fighting.
Even if the opponent is a highly skilled fighter, they cannot withstand the overwhelming numbers of the enemy.
"Sect Leader Yue, today our Emei Sect will lend you a hand."
Just then, Abbess Qingzhu spoke up.
Her words caused both of them to frown simultaneously.
Zuo Lengchan frowned as he looked at her.
"Today's matter is an internal affair of our Five Mountains Sword Sect and has nothing to do with your Emei Sect. Do you want to interfere?"
Fang Zheng's expression was also very cold.
Emei Sect.
It's the Emei Sect again.
Chapter 389: You'd better speak up!
"How can it not be unrelated?"
Faced with Zuo Lengchan's questioning, Abbess Qingzhu sneered.
"Our Emei Sect has long been allied with the Huashan Sect. The two sects will advance and retreat together. Whoever is the enemy of the Huashan Sect is also the enemy of our Emei Sect. Today, the Huashan Sect is going to fight your Songshan Sect. Naturally, our Emei Sect will also lend a hand."
Master Qingwei did not reveal that the five sects of Emei, Huashan, and Taishan were planning to re-form an alliance. Such matters would be announced later. For now, the Emei sect was only assisting the Huashan sect as an ally.
Zuo Lengchan's heart sank, and his tone turned icy.
"Today is an internal matter of our Five Mountains Sword Sect. If your Emei Sect wants to interfere, you will be making an enemy of my Songshan Sect."
Master Qingzhu was not threatened by him at all and smiled faintly.
"Left Sect Leader, there's no need for such threatening words. Our Emei Sect has never been one to be threatened."
Zuo Lengchan's face was gloomy.
He had anticipated that the Emei Sect might cause trouble, but when the moment actually arrived, he still felt it was a difficult situation.
The Emei Sect sent a large number of people this time, more than 700, including many experts. In addition to the sect leader, Abbess Qingzhu, there were also Qingxu, Qingwei and others, all of whom were truly first-class experts.
