Entertainment of Spring and Autumn

Chapter 543 Why bother?

The strong men behind Xue Mu surged up like a tide, drowning the rebels in the blink of an eye.

Cheng Mozhi has also raised many dead soldiers from his disciples over the years, many of whom are not low in combat prowess. Now he has gritted his teeth and stepped forward to resist with the Qixuan rebels. However, it is still a worm that shakes the tree. The difference between the top sects and ordinary warriors is that the practitioners of the top sects are only the backbone, while it is extremely difficult for ordinary warriors to enter the Tao. Cheng Mozhi has raised countless warriors, and so far Only one person was lucky enough to enter Taoism this year.

Ji Wuyou may still have many strong men who have not yet surfaced, but it is obviously more important for him to hide around him, otherwise it will be difficult to ensure safety.

So how come the strength here is enough?

Xue Mu's side crushed them several times just by the initiates, and brought many people from the Demon Sect and disciples who had rebelled in the valley. Whether it was high-end force or numbers, they completely crushed them, like a storm sweeping past, and they were completely crushed. There is no suspense.

Even the elder of the Shi family who guarded the tripod gritted his teeth and came out to challenge, but it was still a drop in the bucket.

Cheng Mozhi looked at the overwhelming defeat and ran away in panic towards the back hill. He really couldn't understand how this battle could turn out like this.

Yun Qianhuang, Leng Zhu, Shen Tu Zui, three Dongxu, among them Shen Tu Zui can still defeat Dongxu in the late stage with one enemy and many enemies; Shi Buyi is at the peak of entering the Tao, and he is just a step away from Dongxu, and the entering Taoist standing on his side There are enough elders; the poisonous beasts of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect are more effective than those below Dongxu. In terms of their ability to fight hard, so many black dragons are not a vegetarian; plus the Five Elements Cauldron...

In terms of strength alone, if it can be used properly, this is a situation that even half the world's strength may not be able to break. You must know that like Wujiu Temple, just relying on a bunch of Daoists and the Karma Cauldron is enough to stand for a thousand years. How much stronger is the Qixuan Rebel Party than Wujiu Temple?

But in Xue Mu's hands, by twisting the left side and the right side, so much power was actually neutralized to the point where even the tripod was on strike... Then he used a sin of punishment to lure snakes out of the cave to call for reinforcements, causing Qixuan to Gu Ju was like an undefended little girl, with no resistance at all.

Xue Mu first used all kinds of public opinion and resources to block it, forcing a prisoner exchange situation. This was actually just a foreshadowing. The real plot of the killing was that Shen Tu Zui's identity was used by him. With Shen Tu Zui, it was natural for the powerful men of the imperial court to take action, and there was no need to report to Ji Wuyou. Yun Qianhuang was persuaded by him, and suddenly he had a powerful person. The node of great reversal.

The next step is to seize Leng Zhu's intention to kill him and lure the snake out of the cave to make the tiger leave the mountain.

What's the key point here? If Shen Tu's crime doesn't move and Leng Zhu doesn't come out, won't all Xue Mu's plans turn out to be lies? Where does he have the confidence to be able to make the final decision?

Cheng Mozhi suddenly realized something. The key here is actually that Xue Mu is too weak...

That's right, Xue Mu is just too weak. Just as Xue Qingqiu told him very early on, if you have a certain level of strength, Xia Houdi would not think of killing you immediately, but if you are too weak to catch a move, the enemy's first reaction is to kill you. Whether it is Shen Tu Xin or Leng Zhu, they will inevitably fall into this thinking, just want to kill him because it is easy to kill...

How could it be that it was obviously his biggest flaw and weakness, and it became an advantage that he took advantage of?

Yes, in martial arts, this is the most basic "selling flaws"... The principles of the world are always the same.

A high wall appears in front of you, you can't run away!

Cheng Mozhi looked back and saw several members of the Demon Sect chasing after him. He gasped and shouted: "Stop! I am..."

There was a sharp pain in the throat, and then the world started to spin. The last thought before he died was: Why can Xue Mu win by talking to each other? Why don't you give me a chance to speak...

He didn't even understand this difference before he died. Xue Mu first created various negotiation situations, and what he faced were the Momen thugs who were eager to exchange his head for a reward with the alliance leader...

The imperial official, the emperor's master, and the governor of Yunzhou, Cheng Mozhi, who had deceived Mo Xuexin for many years by showing weakness, died at the hands of unknown demons from the Demon Sect. Their heads were cut off, and the Qiankun Ring was confiscated.

And over there, Shi Lei also saw an opportunity among the rebellious army to break out of the siege. What he escaped into was the secret passage Zhu Chenyao used to escape.

Xue Mu had been watching the battle and noticed Shi Lei disappearing, and immediately led Ye Guying into the secret passage. The so-called "secret path that can only be mastered by direct disciples", what secrets are there in front of him now? In order to make it easier for him to enter the valley, the map of Qixuan Valley was personally held by the valley owner to show him the path. Every corner was as clear to him as her body...

Shi Lei also suffered some injuries in the chaotic battle. He stumbled out of the secret passage for several miles. He just opened the stone door and jumped out. Before he could take a breath, he was faced with a cold light, carrying frost condensed in the air.

"Choke!" Shi Lei had long since stopped using his fists and swung his heavy sword to fight. Injured and exhausted, he could not withstand this offensive that he had not taken seriously in the past. He actually took two steps back and pressed against the stone door.

The one standing in the way was Zhu Chenyao, who was protected by several Xingyue witches in case of any unexpected events.

Shi Lei took a few breaths and looked at Zhu Chenyao's cold face, silent.

The scene from the night of the rebellion was repeated, but the roles were reversed.

"He has even made arrangements for this step, is he so confident?" Shi Lei finally spoke, with a sarcastic face: "Junior sister, are you ready for the prospect of master and apprentice serving the same husband?"

Zhu Chenyao said lightly: "What does it have to do with you?"

"Such a proud Valley Master, so proud of you, master and disciple are like dogs vying for favor in front of the same man... Ha, ha, ha, ha..." Shi Lei laughed loudly: "Is this your victory?"

Zhu Chenyao said lightly: "So what?"

Shi Lei's laughter was stuck in his throat, and he stared blankly at Zhu Chenyao's calm expression. I originally planned to make her confused and take the opportunity to break out, but how could she be so calm?

"Chen Yao has always been just a little woman with no ambition. She can please a young master, but she can be proud in front of everyone. Isn't that enough?" Zhu Chenyao smiled slightly: "And you? You think you are great, but you get some What? The most important thing is to know yourself."

"I don't think I'm great. I respect Yu Lin very much, and I also admire Xue Mu..."

Xue Mu's voice came from behind: "You just think that the direct descendants of the top sects are great, and others are just low-level people who obediently surrender and depend on you. If you are obedient, you will give you protection and care, if not -" I, Shi Lei, will Kill you all'. I knew it from the way you broke through the battle of Jie Dao when I first met you."

The stone door opened, and Shi Lei slowly turned his head and looked at Xue Mu behind him: "Could it be that those people couldn't be killed because of their behavior at that time? If we didn't do this, we wouldn't be able to withstand the advance of your demon sect."

"Maybe what you did is a helpless choice to solve the problem, but most people really don't think like that. For example, your friend Yulin doesn't think about it, and neither do I. It's not that Yulin or I, Xue Mu, are stupider than you, it's just that everyone It's just that their mentality is different." Xue Mu shook his head and said: "Normally, you and Yu Lin are both chivalrous and righteous, but at critical moments, the most fundamental difference is revealed."

Shi Lei thoughtfully said: "So you and Yu Lin are closer, but we have not had a deep relationship with me after all."

"Actually, Xue Xin is also a bit intuitive. Although she hasn't seen it through, she is still trying to fight for your rookie profile, but she also has a subconscious feeling that she is not from the same group, so she accepted Chen Yao as her disciple, not only for observation and comparison, but also for you to have some experience. In order to gain a sense of competition, she can have a corrected and better performance. Unfortunately, in your opinion, this is how she started to cultivate her direct descendant, with the intention of preventing you from taking over as the Valley Master... The rebellion of the Qixuan Valley Stone System, on the surface it is the same as stone. As a leader, in fact, he is also for you after all.”

A look of enlightenment flashed through Shi Lei's eyes, and he praised: "Xue Mu, your eyes can see through people's hearts. We won't lose unjustly."

Xue Mu whispered: "Although I have never recognized you as my friend in my heart, we have had a friendship over drinking and ordering... I don't want you to be taken back for trial and lose your last face. You ...Commit yourself."

Shi Lei looked at Ye Guying, who was revealed next to Xue Mu, and knew that he had absolutely no chance of breaking out. He slowly laid the sword across his neck, and finally there was a hint of reluctance in his eyes, and he said word by word: "You transferred Li Xiaolin from the capital, leaving the Queen Mother empty... Haha, once she is captured and played with by Ji Wuyou, I really want to see your regretful expression."

After saying that, he seemed to be afraid of hearing any rebuttal from Xue Mu, so he suddenly used force on his hand and killed himself.

Amid the splatter of blood, his cursed smile could still be seen. But the smile soon solidified on his face, and in his last consciousness he could clearly hear Xue Mu sighing: "Why bother deceiving yourself?"
