Chapter 1196: Qingsong Temple

Although today is the birthday of Master Aoki, in fact, the patron of Qingsong Temple did not appear in the reception hall to greet guests.

If you put this to ordinary people, it would naturally make people feel strange. After all, the host celebrates his birthday and all the guests come, but the host does not show up. This is not the way to treat guests.

But for these monks who came, this was not really a big deal, and they didn't go all the way just to see Master Aoki.

As long as Master Aoki knows that they are coming and the gifts are delivered, then everything will be fine.

Things on the mountain are actually not that complicated. After all, it is useful and useless. What is useful is naturally always useful, and what is useless is useless.

The person responsible for entertaining the guests is a Taoist named Lan Yin from Wangyou End. He is a disciple of Master Qingmu. It is said that he is very popular with that master. Now that he has come forward, Qingsong Temple can be regarded as a gift to the monks who come here. An explanation.

Taoist Lan Yin has a good talent for cultivating Taoism. It only took him a hundred years to reach the current state of cultivation. Now that they heard that he was about to break through, these monks naturally did not dare to neglect him. They all greeted him with smiles and were very warm.

Qingsongguan is one of the major sects in the south. There are not many disciples in the mountain at the moment, and it is all due to the previous disputes with the western side. It is said that Qingsongguan did not hesitate at all at that time, and forcefully sent two Fuyun experts with them. Several Taoists from the end of Wangyou went there, but after a big battle, only a few came back.

But even so, I haven't heard Master Aoki complain. He only said that in the next battle, Qingsongguan will still go all out.

Although I don't know whether it is true or not, since these monks want to look up at the green pines and watch their breathing, it is not easy to ask more questions.

At this moment, Taoist Lan Yin was present. After a middle-aged man handed over his hand, he came to Taoist Lan Yin and whispered: "Master, eighteen soul pills have been presented to the temple master. There are still a few left. After thinking about it, , there’s no reason to take it back, I hope Master Wan won’t be dissatisfied and accept such a small gift.”

The middle-aged man took out an inconspicuous small bottle from his arms and handed it to Taoist Lan Yin without anyone noticing.

The latter looked displeased, "How can I take something like this privately?"

Having said that, Taoist Lan Yin still accepted the small bottle and said softly: "I won't do this next time."

The middle-aged man quickly said yes.

Taoist Lan Yin glanced at him and said: "You Hongyun Cave is doing things very well. I will take care of you from now on. The people around here can't say anything. Do you always have to take care of more sects who want to make progress?"

The middle-aged man is the cave master of Hongyun Cave, his Taoist name is Tianyuan. Hearing these words, his head almost beat to death, "I just want to do something for the temple master and the real person, and share my worries."

Master Lan Yin nodded, and Taoist Tianyuan said with some embarrassment: "There has been some unrest around Hongyun Cave recently..."

Master Lan Yin looked at him and said in surprise: "Is there anyone who dares to bully you Hongyun Cave?"

"The real person has a lot of things to do. Maybe he doesn't know that a demon has appeared in the southern realm recently. I don't know why, but he wants to kill sects at every turn. The areas around Hongyun Cave, such as Duanshuishan and Green Pavilion Sect, have been killed by that demon. Damn it, it will end badly."

Taoist Tianyuan looked worried. This was not alarmist. He was really scared. After all, he turned over and over in Hongyun Cave and couldn't find a Fuyun Realm.

"Duanshuishan and Green Pavilion Sect have always been so unruly and disrespectful to our Qingsong Temple. It is only natural that they should end up like this."

Master Lan Yin spoke calmly, his expression unchanged.

"That's natural. The fate of these two sects must be related to their disrespect for Qingsong Temple. But even for the Seven Star Temple, the Seven Stars Master also died under the demon's sword. It is said that before his death, all his flesh and blood were covered with blood. It was cut off and it was very miserable. In the end, there was no one left alive in the Seven Stars Temple.”

Tianyuan Taoist said cautiously: "These demons are killing wantonly in the south, especially around Qingsong Temple. Isn't this provoking our Qingsong Temple? If we can ask Master Qingmu to take action and remove these demons, that will be It’s a great opportunity for Qingsongguan to become famous.”

Master Lan Yin said calmly: "How can Qingsong Temple become famous now?"

Taoist Tianyuan looked embarrassed, and just when he didn't know how to respond, Master Lan Yin said calmly, "But it is not a good thing for such demons to be rampant in the world."

Taoist Tianyuan agreed: "This is exactly the reason."

Master Lan Yin smiled and didn't say much. As a beloved disciple of Master Qingmu, he actually knew very well that his master never cared about these things. As long as it didn't involve Qingsong Temple, let alone messing around, I'm afraid even if he was... The people at the foot of the mountain are messing around and will not pay attention to it, but after all, they just accepted this gift from Taoist Tianyuan. Taoist Lan Yin still has to express his position, otherwise things will be difficult to handle after this.

"I already know about this matter. You should go back first. After I report it to Master, I will make my own conclusion."

Just as Taoist Tianyuan was about to speak, he heard an exclamation.

The monks around him looked at the exclamation, and their expressions instantly became extremely ugly.

A young man in black shirt came with a knife.

Taoist Lan Yin smelled the strong smell of blood and was about to yell angrily, "This is Qingsong...Uncle Lingxu?!"

But after a moment, he saw clearly that the young man's other hand, which was not holding a knife, was holding a head.

It is Ling Xuzi.

One of the three great Fuyuns on the mountain, he is also his uncle.

Taoist Tianyuan's face turned pale, and he spoke tremblingly, "Master, this is the devil!"

Chen Chao threw the head towards Taoist Lan Yin and only asked, "Where is Qingmu?"

…

…

Under the ancient pine tree in the back mountain, Master Aoki opened his eyes.

In fact, he was shocked when Lingxuzi died. Now, he was even more uneasy and his practice was naturally interrupted.

But when he opened his eyes, he actually saw a young man in black shirt standing on the tree opposite him at some point.

Seeing Master Aoki open his eyes, he directly kicked seven or eight heads on the tree trunk in front of Master Aoki.

Master Qingmu's expression did not change. He just took a look and found that all the great monks on the mountain, including Ling Xuzi and Lan Yin, had died.

He retracted his gaze and looked up at the young man in black shirt standing on the tree in front of him.

The young man had sat down again, his expression calm.

"I heard that a demon has appeared in the south recently. He kills people and slaughters clans at every turn. Others say he is young. I didn't believe it before. But now, it seems that the rumors are true."

Master Aoki was very calm, as if these dead were not his disciples and junior brothers, but just insignificant existences.

"It seems that you should be a monk from the west. Where are you from, Guishan? Just killing people indiscriminately. Is this what your Fuyao sect master told you?"

Of course, Master Aoki does not believe that what is happening in the south these days is just a simple pursuit of revenge. If it is just revenge, it will not involve so many sects.

Now, it can only be a grudge between the two sides.

Chen Chao shook his head, "Wrong."

He only said two words, simply denying Aoki's guess.

Master Aoki thought for a while, and when he saw that the expression of the young man in front of him was not fake, he said in surprise: "Is he really seeking revenge?"

No matter what, he still wouldn't believe that someone would kill randomly.

Chen Chao looked at the unusually calm Master Aoki, nodded and said, "It's considered revenge."

"What kind of hatred can involve so many sects? I heard that you massacred the Seven Star Mountain before, and there were some other sects, but you didn't massacre any sects."

Master Aoki was very calm, as if he was just asking about some trivial matter.

"You should have a disciple named Chishui. Judging from his realm, he should be your best disciple. Unfortunately, he also died in my hands."

Chen Chao glanced at Master Aoki.

Master Aoki's expression finally fluctuated a little, "So, you are from overseas?"

Chen Chao did not refute.

Master Aoki suddenly smiled and said: "If this is the case, then it is not an exaggeration for you to kill all the monks in the south. This is such a big hatred."

Chen Chao frowned slightly.

He didn't quite understand what Aoki Masato said.

"But those overseas should not know about these things. If you really want to do something, you shouldn't come here alone. Is it possible that among you overseas, you are the only Fuyun now?"

Master Aoki also shook his head, a little puzzled.

Chen Chao stopped talking in circles and said, "You are robbing fishermen overseas and killing them at will. This is hatred."

Master Aoki was startled, and then he laughed. The great monk Fuyun, who had been practicing for who knows how many years, said with a smile, "It turns out it's for these unimportant things."

Chen Chao remained silent.

Along the way, he had killed a lot of people. He had no feelings for the monks who were begging for mercy when they were about to die, but he was very angry at the monks who still didn't care after knowing the cause of the matter.

It seems that in their eyes, the lives of those fishermen are not lives at all.

This made him very angry.

Master Aoki said: "It's really interesting over there. You have practiced to such an extent, but you are still obsessed with these dust?"

"I understand. I'm afraid others won't think so. You are the only one who won't let go of this matter. You are also a wonderful person, but it's a pity that you are too stupid..."

As he spoke, Master Aoki sat down and suddenly countless vines sprouted and entangled towards Chen Chao.

The vines wrapped around the big tree at his feet and shattered it in an instant. On Chen Chao's side, Chen Chao stretched out his hand slightly and pinched off a vine.

Then the young man in black clothes floated down, took out the cloud mud, and drew the sword out of its sheath.

"That Seven-Star Master was beaten alive by me at that time. How do you think your fate will be compared to his?"

Chen Chao narrowed his eyes and looked at the Lord of the Mountain expressionlessly.

Master Aoki just said calmly, "How can that loser Qixing be compared with Pindao?"
