Chapter 698 Covenant

The battle at Piaomiao Pavilion more than a hundred years ago was one of the biggest laughing stock between the righteous way and the demonic sect.

The laughing stock of the Righteous Path is Xuantian Sect. As the leader of the Righteous Path and a close neighbor of Piaomiao Pavilion, after receiving the request for help from the Piaomiao Pavilion, they actually stood still and watched from the sidelines until the war was about to end before they arrived without any hesitation. Until now, the various parties of the Righteous Path Still very dissatisfied with this matter.

The laughing stock of the Demon Sect was that when they were retreating at the end of the battle, Tuoba Yu saw a large number of reinforcements coming from the righteous way, so he ordered to retreat to the wilderness. However, his order was only passed on to the Demon Sect's sects, and the Ghost Sect's sects did not know it. So when most of the disciples of the Demon Sect were away from the Piaomiao Pavilion for about dozens of miles, the disciples of the Ghost Sect felt something bad. They were heavily surrounded by the righteous disciples and suffered heavy casualties. The previous leader of the Blood Soul Sect died fighting at the Piaomiao Peak with hatred. .

Now that Old Man Mo Lin talked about that battle in public, the discussion in the hall immediately stopped.

Tuo Bayu hummed: "Sect Master Mo, what do you mean by this? As the leader of the Holy Cult, could I intentionally harm my fellow disciples? I explained this matter more than a hundred years ago. At that time, there was chaos around Piaomiao Peak, and I sent many A disciple told everyone to retreat, but your Ghost Sect was too far away and did not hear the order to retreat. How can you blame me for this matter? What's more, more than a hundred years have passed and the crisis before us is now. It’s a top priority, so there’s no need to mention the past.”

Old Man Mo Lin closed his eyes and said: "Our Blood Soul Sect is opposed to sneak attacks on the Xuantian Sect. You can discuss the rest among yourself."

The opposition of one sect is useless. As long as three of the five major factions agree to attack Xuantian Sect, the matter will be settled.

The Yin Ling Sect, which is also a Ghost Sect, naturally advances and retreats with the Blood Soul Sect. The Ghost Sword Demon Lord nodded and said: "I don't agree either."

Tuo Bayu turned his attention to Fairy Yimiao of the Hehuan Sect and Chen Xuanjia of the Shura Sect. As long as these two people advance and retreat with him, his goal can be achieved.

But when these two old foxes refused to express their opinions, Fairy Yimiao ignored Tuo Bayu's eyes and turned to look at the two envoys on the left and right.

Said: "Second envoy, this time the righteous path is directed at the temple. I wonder how the temple's defense is now?"

Changkong smiled and said: "The Five Elements Flags have all returned to defend the temple recently. I have also sent word to some of the monk elders that they will arrive in the next two days. The defense of the temple is still relatively strong. It will not be easy for the righteous way to win the temple. ”

Fairy Yimiao nodded and said: "The temple is the origin of the Holy Religion, and the immortal Holy Fire is in the Xuanhuo Altar. The Heavenly Demon Patriarch once said before his death in immortality, as long as the Holy Fire does not go out, our Holy Religion will not perish, so no matter In any unpredictable and critical situation, protecting the sacred flame is the top priority. "

Tuo Bayu said: "Don't worry, Madam Yimiao, I will not wait until Zhengdao attacks the temple before taking action against Xuantian Sect. There will be no problems with the temple and the Holy Fire."

This is the truth. If the righteous army attacks the temple, it means that the surrounding Black Stone Mountain has been destroyed. That is where the main altar of the Tianmo Sect is. The reason why Tuo Bayu tried his best to promote the Eastern Expedition was because he was worried that the war would Being led to Blackstone Mountain caused the Heavenly Demon Sect to suffer heavy losses, which was very bad.

Who is not an old fox here? How could he not know Tuo Ba Yu’s wishful thinking? The power of the Ghost Sect doesn’t matter. They are not in the core area of the temple. Even if the holy sect attacks the temple, they can just retreat to their own sect when the situation is bad. But the Heavenly Demon Sect is different. The Heavenly Demon Sect is located on Blackstone Mountain more than ten miles away. The main battlefield will definitely be on Blackstone Mountain. In this case, it is impossible for the Heavenly Demon Sect not to kill more than half of them.

This is a great opportunity to greatly weaken the Heavenly Demon Sect, so Old Man Mo Lin and Ghost Sword Demon King of the Ghost Sect strongly oppose the Eastern Expedition. It is advocated to attack the enemies of the right path here.

Fairy Yimiao glanced at Chen Xuanjia, who had been silent, and said, "Sect Master Xuanjia, do you think we should protect the sect in the temple, or should we take the initiative?"

Chen Xuanjia smiled and said: "Of course we are taking the initiative to attack. What Master Tuoba just said is right. Once the Xuantian Sect is attacked, Qiankunzi will definitely retreat immediately. The art of war has it that if you surround Wei to save Zhao, you will be able to save it if you attack it. This It is the weakness of Xuantian Sect. Our holy sect has been wanting to develop in the beautiful and prosperous Middle Earth for thousands of years, but what stands in front of us is Xuantian Sect and Piaomiao Pavilion. If most of the elites of these two sects leave, If we lose our sect, we are very likely to severely damage them, so I agree with Tuoba Sect Master. Even if we can't destroy Xuantian Sect, it is still good to severely damage it. As long as Xuantian Sect's power is greatly damaged, I think Cangyun Sect That old fox Yu Jizi was asked to help us clean up the Xuantian Sect."

At this point, his tone suddenly became hoarse, and he said: "Don't forget, everyone, Master Tuoba is still the leader of our Holy Religion. Back then, the founders of the various sects made an alliance. If the righteous way comes, this leader will People can exercise the authority of the leader."

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately looked at each other. Old Man Mo Lin, who had closed his eyes just now and planned not to speak, suddenly opened his eyes.

Old Man Mo Lin said: "Is there such a thing? Why didn't I hear about it?"

Not only was Old Mo Lin puzzled, but even Tuo Ba Yu's eyes widened. It seemed that he didn't know that during wartime, the person in charge could exercise the authority of the leader. If it was true, this would be ridiculous. He himself was in wartime. You can order all the Holy Religion sects, including the Ghost Sect, unless the Ghost Sect feels that it does not belong to the Holy Religion and wants to break away from the Holy Religion.

Seeing the suspicious looks from everyone, Chen Xuanjia said to the second envoy: "Second envoy, I wonder if this was included in the covenant signed by the founders of each sect?"

The two envoys looked at each other, and after a moment, Huangfu said: "This covenant does exist, and it is kept in the Xuanhuo Altar, but none of us has opened it in so many years, so we don't know if there is this covenant in it. "

Tuo Bayu stood up directly and said loudly: "In that case, let's go to the Xuanhuo Altar together to take out the original copy of the covenant, and we will know it at a glance."

There is no other way. If this covenant really exists, it is now a wartime situation, and Tuo Bayu will exercise the authority of the leader. This is a serious matter, so we must be cautious.

Huangfu's mechanism was opened, and the staircase leading directly to the Xuanhuo Altar slowly appeared. Everyone walked in, whispering as they walked, whether this was true or not.

Tuo Bayu whispered to Chen Xuanjia: "Brother Chen, where did you hear this? Why didn't you know there was such a covenant?"

Chen Xuanjia said in a low voice: "I also recently read in an ancient book in the sect. After the death of the leader of Yuezhi Yin, the holy sect was divided into pieces. In order to prevent the righteous way from taking the opportunity to attack, the heads of the various factions of the holy sect A covenant was secretly signed. I was just talking about it casually. I didn’t expect that the original manuscript of the covenant was actually preserved in the temple. The covenant is true. The person in charge can exercise all the powers of the leader during war. This should also be true. , just wait, we will see the result soon.”
