Chapter 473: Trouble comes from the mouth, persuasion skills

Luo Sanxian didn't look very satisfied.

He held the "Xianjian Sword" in his hand, his eyes fixed straight ahead, his lips tightly pursed, and he seemed unable to smile.

The Xianjian Sword seemed to still have some spirituality and was trembling slightly in his hand, as if it was comforting him.

Luo Sanxian's eyes became even more aggrieved, as if he saw his own son going out to make a living, and coming back dressed as a woman - he didn't dare to recognize him, but he couldn't deny the closeness of this blood connection.

No one spoke on Mount Shenhuo.

Everyone looked silently at the Xianjian Sword in Luo Sanxian's hand, and secretly swallowed their saliva.

Everyone understands - this is a big deal!
Hao Rishan studied for an era, spent countless spirit stones, and successfully refined a True Immortal-level Xian Xian Sword into a Nascent Soul magic weapon...

Not to mention the messy spiritual vein on the Haori Mountain.

The loss was so severe that even Hao Rishan, as one of the Five Sects, felt the pain.

Communication talismans came like raindrops from the direction of Haori Mountain. Some were for Luo Sanxian, some were for Shi Nandang, and even the young man who was driving the car received dozens of them.

Not only the three of them, but also the other Divine Incarnations and Nascent Souls on the mountain received many communication talismans.

With such a big change happening in Haori Mountain, naturally someone would come and ask the reason.

But no one in the mountain could explain the situation clearly. Even they were confused and their minds were in chaos.

"There is something wrong with this formation." Luo Sanxian said in a cold voice with a gloomy face.

Everyone was stunned and looked at each other, then they heard Luo Sanxian say: "Originally, it was the spirit veins of the Hundred Immortals Alliance that were damaged... but now the spirit veins that are in trouble are mostly within the territory of my Haori Mountain."

He pinched a communication talisman, and his tone became increasingly cold: "According to preliminary statistics, about 20% of my Haori Mountain spiritual veins have been destroyed. The loss is heavy."

Shi Nandang felt nervous when he heard this. Even though it was only 20%, the range was twice as large as that of the Hundred Immortals Alliance. The spiritual veins drained by this formation were twice as much as previously estimated.

Of course, he was at a loss as to why:

What Hao Rishan is pursuing is just a sword that they can control.

But Zheng Fa was a man of great demand for perfection. He wanted a complete and uncompromised True Immortal-level Xian Xian Sword. As for the fact that this pursuit of perfection would consume more spiritual veins, since they did not belong to his Hundred Immortals Alliance, he did not mind.

“But… Grandmaster, didn’t you check the formation before?”

Shi Nandang said nervously.

On the one hand, he was indeed puzzled.

On the one hand, I also want to remind Luo Sanxian that when I handed the formation over to you, it was in good condition!
You passed the acceptance!

This matter has nothing to do with us!

Luo Sanxian's expression froze, and he seemed speechless. He frowned, glanced at Shi Nandang and the other three in front of him, and shook his head slightly.

"You four are indeed not in the formation..."

Shi Nandang breathed a sigh of relief.

Luo Sanxian cast a suspicious look at the seven gods in front of him.

"Holy Ancestor! I..."

The young man driving the car also felt something was wrong and shouted.

Luo Sanxian said nothing, but just pointed his five fingers downwards.

A hemispherical light shield then appeared.

The five red dragons that were driving the car before roared towards the sky, entangled in a light shield, chasing each other, head and tail connected.

The light shield descended with bursts of dragon roars, capturing the six gods who were running the formation.

The young man who was driving the car he brought with him breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that his Holy Ancestor still trusted him.

Luo Sanxian seemed to have thought of something again. He turned his head and looked at the dazed Eighth Elder on the mountainside. He pointed his finger and a red dragon flew out. It stretched out its claws to grab it and threw it into the light shield.

In an instant, except for Zheng Fa and the other four and the young man driving the car, all the cultivators on Shenhuo Mountain whose cultivation was above the Nascent Soul stage were captured by Luo Sanxian.

Shi Nandang's face tightened and he was obviously a little frightened.

Luo Sanxian frowned and looked at him, then suddenly said, "The Xianjian Sword was destroyed, and I am also to blame. I need to go back and explain to the sect."

“They will also face interrogation behind the scenes to find out the truth.”

"You four have little to do with this matter. Someone from the sect will definitely come to ask you about what happened. Just tell the truth."

Shi Nandang immediately understood what Luo Sanxian meant.

The problem this time is so big that Luo Sanxian doesn't dare to say that he can handle it. He also has some doubts in his heart. He arrested these people in order to shift the blame.

Secondly, of course, it is to find out the truth.

It just so happened that the four of them were some distance away from the Divine Fire Mountain, so they were cleared of most of the suspicion.

After realizing this, Shi Nandang slowly lowered his head and clenched his fists, as if he felt sorry for the trapped Immortal Sword.

Zheng Fa watched coldly from the side, a little worried:

Shi Nandang had finally escaped from this big pit. If he laughed out loud now, it would be hard to explain.

Fortunately, Shi Nandang was valued by the Lu clan and had profound skills in cultivating his qi, so he forced himself to hold back his laughter.

The young man driving the car was really inexperienced. When he saw Luo Sanxian let him go, he suddenly felt at ease and asked:
"Holy Ancestor, are we still going to Jiushan Sect?"

Luo Sanxian's expression froze. He looked down at the "Xian Sword" in his hand and remained silent for a long time.

A red dragon leaped out from the surface of the light shield, grabbed the young man driving the car, blocked his mouth, and threw him into the shield.

Luo Sanxian seemed to have realized something as well. He didn't say any more to Shi Nan and the others. He flew out of Shenhuo Mountain in a hurry. Judging from the direction, it was obviously not going to the Hundred Immortals Alliance.

……

Watching Luo Sanxian's back go away, everyone on the mountaintop was silent for a long time. Shi Nandang smiled and said, "That Luo clan god-transformer really doesn't understand the principle of "disaster comes from the mouth". If Xianjian was good, he might have dared to go to Jiushan Sect... But Xianjian is in such a state now, he actually dared to ask that question. Wouldn't it make it difficult for Luo Patriarch to step down?"

It can be heard that even though he had escaped by luck, he still had some resentment towards Luo Sanxian and the young man.

"Master...how should we deal with ourselves?"

Sect Leader Chongxuan looked at Shi Nandang worriedly, his face full of bitterness.

The smile on Shi Nandang's face gradually turned into bitterness and he shook his head slightly.

"I thought it was a great achievement, but I didn't expect such a change." He said to the three people, "I think the sect will not let this go easily."

This is also what Master Chongxuan is worried about.

Although they are less suspected, the loss of a true immortal treasure is too great, someone has to take responsibility, and Haori Mountain will definitely send people to investigate.

"It's good now. I have lost the credit for bestowing the surname. It seems difficult for you, the Chongxuan Sect, to return to the sect. We are in the same boat."

The expression of the leader of Chongxuan Sect became even more bitter.

This is also what worries him.

The reason why their Chongxuan Sect was favored by Haori Mountain was only because of its geographical location. After all, a sect like theirs was not worthy of Haori Mountain's attention.

Now that the Xianjian Sword had problems, the spiritual veins of Haori Mountain close to the Hundred Immortals Alliance were almost completely cut off. This was a big problem for the Chongxuan Sect.

Not to mention that Hao Rishan might give up Zhongxuan Sect, even if they don't want to give up, it will be much more troublesome for Zhongxuan Sect to contact Hao Rishan now.

Not to mention, once those powerful people in Haori Mountain see them, they will probably think of the Xianjian Sword, which is really terrible.

Sect Leader Chongxuan asked himself, he didn't want a bunch of useless people like them who were more likely to cause trouble than to do anything else.

“Master, even if you are not a direct descendant of the Lu clan, you are still a disciple of the Haori Mountain Sect. But what about us?” His voice was almost sad. “But now we have no way to return to the mountain, and we have to face the revenge of the Hundred Immortals Alliance…”

Shi Nandang simply had no future.

If they rebel against Xuanzong, they might lose their lives.

The head of the Zhongxuan Sect looked at the Zhongxuan Sect without a single disciple, and became even more grief-stricken. He then looked in the direction where Luo Sanxian had gone away, and lowered his voice slightly: "Didn't you see that Patriarch Luo was running very fast..."

"Bixia, don't you think so?" "Bixia?"

He looked at the Ninth Elder and saw that he looked absent-minded and not worried at all.

When the Ninth Elder saw that Sect Leader Chongxuan was looking at him, he realized that he had been a little careless because of Luo Sanxian's departure, and he couldn't help but turn his gaze to Zheng Fa.

Of course Zheng Fa could feel the tension and apology in the Ninth Elder's eyes.

But to be honest, he didn't mind much.

At this moment, Li Hao's identity is no longer useful:
He put on Li Hao's shell just to trap the Immortal Sword. Now the Immortal Sword was already well inside his sea of ​​consciousness, so there was no point in continuing the disguise.

He nodded slightly towards the Ninth Elder, indicating that everything was fine.

The Ninth Elder was stunned for a moment, then seemed to understand Zheng Fa's thoughts and couldn't help but laugh.

Shi Nandang and the other man are not fools. How could they not see the problem in this situation?

"You...you guys?"

The voice of Sect Leader Chongxuan trembled, as if he understood something.

Shi Nandang's eyes widened in disbelief.

But the Li Hao in front of him had golden light flowing all over his body. When the light gradually faded, a face that he was very familiar with was revealed.

"Zheng Fa!" Shi Nandang flew ten feet high, "So it's you!"

"No wonder!"

"No wonder there were problems with the formation!"

Not to mention him, even the head of Chongxuan Sect understood part of the truth at this moment.

Before Shi Nandang finished speaking, he stepped on the flowing clouds, as if he wanted to escape.

But when he turned around, he saw a pitch-black and familiar-looking sword lying behind him.

"Immortal Trap Sword!"

As soon as Xianjian's murderous intent was released, Shi Nandang's face turned pale, and he fell straight from the cloud to the ground, without any power to resist.

When Sect Leader Chongxuan saw this scene, his knees went weak and he collapsed to the ground, unable to move.

Shi Nandang was dizzy for a few breaths before he came back to his senses and said with a wry smile: "It turns out there is nothing wrong with this formation."

Zheng Fa agreed, "Hao Rishan has spent an epoch researching the Heaven and Earth God Array, and it is indeed useful."

"..."

Shi Nandang was silent for a moment, and then seemed to give up struggling: "I just don't understand, why can you practice my "Red Sky Jade Book"? Aren't you afraid..."

Zheng Fa smiled and did not answer the question.

But inside this smile, two words are clearly written - not afraid.

Shi Nandang understood this expression, sighed slightly, and said: "Now that things have come to this, Master Zheng, you can kill me or chop me up, and I will do whatever you want."

The head of Chongxuan beside him also turned pale, and it was obvious that he had also made plans for the worst.

Although Hao Rishan's plan did not harm the Hundred Immortals Alliance at all, the two factions were actually fighting to the death.

Now that Master Zheng has shown up, they naturally have no chance of survival.

Zheng Fa ignored the two of them and just pointed his finger at the Xianjian Sword. The Xianjian Sword suddenly turned into a black portal, and Junior Sister Ye and other disciples walked out of it.

"Master!"

Junior Sister Ye and the others were also bewildered, but seeing Zheng Fa they were even more confused, as he obviously didn't understand the current situation.

"I want to go and seek justice from that Luo Sanxian. I don't have time to talk to you."

Zheng Fa spoke quickly, also afraid that Luo Sanxian would run too fast.

Shi Nandang's expression was as if he had seen a ghost. He glanced at the Xianjian and there was only one word on his face - justice, who will give justice to Luo Sanxian?

Zheng Fa didn't say much, and said bluntly:
"You have two choices. The first is death."

Sect Leader Chong Xuan hurriedly said, "The second one, the second one!"

Shi Nandang could not help but glare at Sect Leader Chongxuan, obviously thinking that this man was too spineless and he was ashamed to be associated with him.

Sect Leader Chongxuan turned his face away, as if he didn't dare to meet his gaze.

Zheng Fa glanced at the two of them and continued, "The second option is to work for my Jiushan Sect in secret."

Shi Nandang immediately refused sternly: "You want me to betray the sect? Impossible! I will never let the Holy Ancestor down!"

The main reason Zheng Fa wanted to keep Shi Nandang was for the information about Haori Mountain.

Now, the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor is causing trouble in the Tianhe Sect and has cut off contact with Zheng Fa and the others.

This is really not a good thing for Jiushan Sect:

Zheng Fa doesn’t have many sources of information about the battle situation of Tianhe Sect. If Hao Rishan withdraws from Tianhe Sect, Jiushan Sect will face crisis again.

Before, with the presence of "Li Hao" and Chongxuan Zong, he had control over many of Haori Mountain's actions. Now, this chess piece of Chongxuan Zong is of no use to Haori Mountain anymore, and obviously, he will not let it know what is going on within the sect.

The value of Shi Nandang, the Lu clan's deity, was magnified a lot.

With his identity and his cultivation, he could obtain much more information than the Chongxuan Sect - the previous meeting of the five sects was also a big event, and the fact that Haori Mountain sent Shi Nandang meant that this disciple still had some status in Haori Mountain.

But it was obvious that Shi Nandang was still somewhat loyal to Haori Mountain. Although he did not fully understand what Zheng Fa wanted to do, he had already flatly refused.

"It turns out that the man on the stone is really not the leader's man..."

Before Zheng Fa could say anything, the Ninth Elder beside him murmured softly, seeming a little unbelievable.

Shi Nandang's expression froze.

Then the Ninth Elder laughed and said, "Master Shi promoted Alliance Leader Zheng, and this time he has done a great service to the Hundred Immortals Alliance... I originally thought..."

The loyalty on Shi Nandang's face became increasingly frozen.

The head of the Chongxuan sect, who had just felt a little ashamed, suddenly straightened his back, glared at Shi Nandang, and cursed him with his eyes:

I am weak-boned.

What about you? You are blind!
Who is the reason why we are in this situation now?
Shi Nandang… turned his head away, looked up at the sky, not daring to meet the gaze of Sect Leader Chongxuan.

But he still had a stern face, as if he didn't want to betray Hao Rishan, and even had a kind of stubbornness that would rather die than surrender.

"Elder Bixia is right. Shi Shangren has made great contributions to our Hundred Immortals Alliance." Zheng Fa seemed to be moved by the words of the Ninth Elder. He shook his head and smiled, "If you don't want to, then forget it."

Shi Nandang was stunned and looked at Zheng Fa blankly.

Zheng Fa turned his body sideways, as if to make way for him, and seemed to really want to let him go.

Shi Nandang looked slightly puzzled and tried to fly out of the mountain, but Zheng Fa really did not try to stop him. He was delighted and rode the cloud again, hoping to take advantage of Zheng Fa's momentary weakness to escape from Chongxuan Sect.

Behind me, a voice that couldn't be more familiar came:

“If you don’t know what the Nine Mountain Sect is like, then my Haori Mountain is worthy of the name of the Five Sects.”

Shi Nandang's body stiffened, he slowly turned around, and saw a light curtain standing on the top of Shenhuo Mountain.

In the light curtain, his appearance was vivid and his expression was extremely angry.

It was the image of him complaining to Zheng Fa about Hao Rishan.

The clouds under Shi Nandang's feet dissipated, and with a plop, he knelt in front of the light curtain, looking at his own face in extreme despair.

The head of Chongxuan Sect and others looked at him with strange expressions, full of doubts.

You say others don’t understand that trouble comes from the mouth?
