Chapter 22: Mighty and Unyielding Righteous Energy
The whole venue was quiet to the extreme, and everyone was shocked.
They only knew that Dongfang Bu Bai was strong, very strong. At a young age, she was already one of the six strongest in Jianghu, yet they still couldn't imagine that her speed would be so fast to this extent.
To be honest, at this moment, there were only about seven or eight people in the entire audience who could see Dongfang Bubai's movements.
And can only see, but not really see clearly.
In fact, Fei Bin dared to come here with the command flag in hand, naturally having considerable strength. His cultivation was not much different from that of Mi Die's, and he shouldn't have been defeated by a single move, but things happened suddenly, Dongfang Bubai's speed was like a ghost, and he was caught off guard, making such a big fool of himself in front of everyone.
After a brief silence, it was still the Xuan Ku Master of Shaolin Temple who reacted first, clasped his palms together and chanted: "Amitabha."
Just in time, Chen Xiao drew out the sword at Linghu Chong's waist and placed it against Fei Bin's throat, saying in a low voice: "Originally, I wouldn't have bothered with the affairs of the Five Mountain Sword Sect, but you actually dared to kill someone's family member in front of all these heroes. In that case, I have no choice but to intervene."
As a native of the Earth and a Five Good Youth, Chen Xiao had always believed that life was the most precious thing, and love was even more valuable. The Songshan Sect's killing of ordinary people who were powerless to resist right in front of him - how could he not care?
Chen Xiao originally had no good impression of the Songshan Sect, and now that he saw their way of doing things, his impression was even worse. Now that he had subdued Da Songyang's hand, Fei Bin, he would have to rescue Liu Zhengfeng's family no matter what.
Fei Bin was subdued, but there wasn't a hint of fear on his face. Instead, he coldly sneered: "Kill me, and they'll all die!"
At this moment, seeing his own relatives about to lose their lives, Liu Zheng's body trembled as he stood up and made a bow to the surrounding heroes, saying: "Here are all the senior masters of Shaolin, Wudang and other schools, the leaders of Mount Tai and Mount Hua are also here, and Danyu Shitai of the Hengshan school can represent her master sister. In addition, all you heroes and good men can bear witness."
He glanced at everyone's face and said in a low voice: "Liu certain asks friends for this favor, let me take care of the friendship between friends, but also to ensure the safety of my family members."
Mie Jue Shitai had a fiery personality and had long disapproved of the way Mount Song Sect handled things. She was the first to speak up, her voice cold and stern: "I have always prided myself on being righteous, but today I am ashamed to be associated with this person."
He drew out the Heaven-Reliant Sword in his hand and stood up with the Emei School disciples, standing beside Chen Xiao.
Shaolin Master Gao Xuan shouted out a Buddhist mantra, saying: "Amitabha Buddha, Heaven has the virtue of good birth, and the grudges of the rivers and lakes should not involve family members. Well done, well done." As he spoke, he led the Shaolin disciples to stand beside Chen Xiao.
Then come Wudang and Kunlun, among other major schools of Jianghu.
Ding Yishi was tough on the outside but gentle on the inside, although her temper was violent, she had a very kind heart. She already had a good impression of Chen Xiao, and with Yi Lin's relationship, she also said: "Also count as one share for poor nun." As she spoke, she led the disciples of the Hengshan Sect to stand up as well.
Taishan Sect's Tianmen Daoist stood up, nodded and said: "My Five Mountains Sword Sect originally shared the same breath, but taking someone else's family as a threat is indeed not the right thing to do. I also agree with Chen Xiaojian. Yuxian younger brother, what do you think?"
Yue Buqun glanced at Linghu Chong, who seemed to have a good relationship with Chen Xiao, and then looked at Yue Lingshan sitting not far away. He thought: "It seems that Mount Song Sect is unlikely to get a good outcome today. Using family members as threats is not the right way. Chen Xiao's son has a strong sense of justice, his future achievements will be great. Since I have to take sides today, I might as well take this opportunity to show him personal favor." He immediately stood up and said: "Yue Buqun brought his family here, actually didn't want his family members to be threatened. So..."
He also stood beside Chen Xiao.
Now that the Songshan faction's power has waned, Fei Bin saw that nearly half of those present had sided with Chen Xiao, and angrily snorted: "You actually dare to collude with Dongfang Bubai, I was wrong about you. Humph, when I return, I must report this to the Left Guardian in person."
"Let them go, we're leaving!"
He had actually intended to do so from the start. Although he failed to kill Qu Yang and instead incurred the wrath of many, at least the prestige of the Songshan Sect was preserved. Now that he has left, it can be said that they have parted ways due to differences in their paths, and it doesn't count as fleeing out of fear.
After hearing his words, the disciples of Songshan Sect pushed Liu Zhengfeng's family out. Chen Xiao also put down the long sword in his hand and winked at Dongfang Bubai with his left hand secretly pointing a few times. Dongfang Bubai immediately understood and smiled: "You're sensible. This broken flag is returned to you!"
At this point, Dongfang Bubai's entire body seemed to turn into a gentle breeze, and the crowd only heard two muffled sounds of "peng peng", after which they saw Fei Bin holding the Five Peaks Flag, but his body flew out directly.
When everyone saw Dongfang Bubai's figure again, she seemed to have never moved at all, still sitting steadily in the main seat, with a faint smile on her face, looking very calm and composed.
With a "thud", Fei Bin fell to the ground, his face ashen, staring at Dongfang Bubai and shouting: "You... you've ruined my martial arts..."
Dongfang Bubai seemed to have done something insignificant, and smiled lightly: "If it weren't for you, why would Qu Yang need to disable his martial arts? Someone in my sect had their martial arts disabled, so as the leader, I naturally want to regain face. Today, not killing you is already your good fortune, hurry up and leave!"
Qu Yang abandoned her martial arts skills, although it was at the request of Dongfang Bubai, but in reality, it was because Fei Bin's overbearing attitude that she said so, and it can't be considered as speaking nonsense or reversing black and white.
Fei Bin covered his mouth with his hand, forcing himself to swallow the blood that had surged up to his throat, and said: "Qu Yang's martial arts skills were abandoned by your own order, what does it have to do with me?!"
Dongfang Bubai stared at Fei Bin's eyes and slowly said: "I say it's because of you, that is because of you. What, do you have an opinion?"
"You!"
Fei Bin wanted to say more, but in the end he could only hold back. Originally, he was not a match for Dongfang Bubai, and now that his life's work had been ruined, revenge seemed even more hopeless. Saying more would be useless, it would only invite ridicule. In the end, Fei Bin could only glare at Chen Xiao with a venomous expression, leaving with resentment.
Fei Bin left, Qu Yang hastily rushed over and knelt down on one knee towards Dongfang Bubai, clasped his fists and thanked him: "Your subordinate thanks you, Master."
Dongfang Bubai nodded slightly and stopped speaking.
In fact, she wanted to kill Fei Bin, which was not a difficult task at all. Even in this situation, if she really killed Fei Bin, even if the heroes surrounded her, it would be easy for her to leave. It's just that way, Qu Yang wouldn't be able to be human, so she changed her mind and only abolished Fei Bin's martial arts.
Although Dongfang Bubai is the leader of the Sun Moon Holy Cult and known as a great evil in Jianghu, he himself is not particularly cruel or bloodthirsty.
Otherwise, Tian Boguang, who was in the group jade garden at that time and wanted to take advantage of her, would have been slapped to death with one palm, and Chen Xiao wouldn't have had a chance to analyze the "Kuihua Treasure".
As Chen Xiao Mu watched Fei Bin leave, the system prompt sounded in his mind: "Golden Basin Washing Hands task completed. Task evaluation analysis underway, please wait..."
"Analysis completed, task evaluation level: None, task reward: Jianghu prestige +5, Shaolin, Wudang, Emei, Kunlun, Huashan, Taishan, Hengshan and other sects' favorability +10."
"Hmm..."
Chen Xiao let out a sigh of relief, this task seems to have a high degree of freedom, so there is no evaluation level, but the recent Jianghu prestige has been rising rapidly, it seems that if this continues, he will really become the leader of the martial arts world - a leader of the martial arts world who doesn't know how to fight? Sounds pretty cool, right?
