Chapter 457 People from Taichu Temple
Tian Zhenzhen could sense Tang Yifeng's tension and unease.
She naturally wouldn't hand Tang Yifeng over to Long Daoyang.
"I'm sorry, I brought this person with me. I will hand him over to Elder Qingyi."
Tian Zhenzhen directly rejected Long Daoyang's suggestion.
Long Daoyang was not surprised by the outcome of Tian Zhenzhen's account, but said meaningfully:
"Miss Tian, perhaps Tang Yifeng will have a chance to live if he is handed over to us."
Are you sure handing it over to Master Qingyi is for his own good?
Long Daoyang's words were somewhat inexplicable; she had only saved Tang Yifeng at the request of Daoist Qingyi.
Could it be that Master Qingyi could harm him?
"The people I brought are naturally capable of protecting him, so you don't need to worry about them."
Perhaps you think you know something and that I'll do something I'll regret. But you'd better be clear: what I hate most is people who pretend to be profound.
Tian Zhenzhen showed Long Daoyang no mercy whatsoever.
This caused Long Daoyang to show a look of anger, but he still glanced at Tian Daqiang with apprehension and did nothing.
"Miss Tian is indeed quick-witted; I hope you won't regret it later."
Since Miss Tian is unwilling, then I won't bother you any longer. I'll take my leave now.
In the end, Long Daoyang did not choose to take action, but instead left with his men.
After they left, the martial artist who had been following Long Daoyang spoke up angrily.
"How dare this person disrespect Captain Long? Are you going to make a move on her when we get to Nine Dragons Mountain?"
Someone suggested it, but Tian Zhenzhen was surprisingly uncooperative.
"Hmph, didn't you see that she was protected by a powerful figure?"
Why didn't you say that in front of everyone?
Long Daoyang glanced sideways at the person who spoke. Did he not want to make a move?
"I...I know I was wrong."
Upon seeing Long Daoyang's unfriendly tone, his subordinates quickly apologized.
"Hmph, I know what you mean, but we don't need to do this."
"Look at her protecting that kid; she'll inevitably clash with someone sooner or later. Then we can just sit back and reap the benefits."
Long Daoyang's words were meaningful, clearly indicating that there was something Tian Zhenzhen didn't know.
It was as if they had already predicted that Tian Zhenzhen would inevitably have a conflict with someone sooner or later.
"Team Dragon is truly amazing; everything is under your control."
The subordinates were flattering him.
"That's right. If I hadn't been cautious, I would probably be in the same situation as Guan Yiming right now."
After saying this, Long Daoyang led his men away.
Over here, Tian Zhenzhen withdrew her mental energy.
She had just noticed the hidden meaning in the man's words, so she kept a close eye on him and overheard their conversation.
She actually picked up on something.
It seems she'll still have things to do later. Although I don't know the specifics, as long as I face her, she's definitely not going to lose.
Just then, a group of people walked in from a distance. These people walked through the snow without leaving any trace on the snow.
It is clear that these people are extraordinary, and their martial arts skills have reached a certain level.
Wearing uniform attire, all in grey Taoist robes, and possessing the skill of walking on snow without leaving a trace, they could easily be mistaken for reclusive masters.
Upon the arrival of these Taoist priests, many people from various factions hurriedly stepped forward to greet them.
"Greetings, Daoist Ningchu."
All of them bowed to the Taoist priest in the lead.
Master Ningchu is the abbot of Taichu Temple, and it is said that his cultivation level is unfathomable.
It's not surprising that they received such courtesy from these people.
"Please, everyone, no need for formalities. I am very pleased that you have lent my Taichu Temple a helping hand. As for the benefits you promised, once we receive the goods, Taichu Temple will definitely keep our promise."
Master Ningchu had a very kind expression, and his voice was like a spring breeze, making people feel comfortable.
Everyone readily agreed when they heard his words.
After speaking, Master Ningchu noticed the two sides still fighting and a strange look flashed in his eyes.
Since ancient times, Buddhism and Taoism have been at odds with each other.
Neither Taichu Temple nor Jingyun Temple invited any monks to this event.
Moreover, judging from the monks' attire, their identities are not hard to guess; they are all meddlesome bald monks from Lingjue Temple.
"Could you all give me some face and resolve any personal grudges later?"
Alternatively, you could find another place to fight. Today is the day our Taichu Temple is purging traitors, and we don't want to be disturbed.
Master Ningchu's words were very loud, and everyone present could hear them.
Logically speaking, for everyone present to hear it, the sound must be very loud.
The sound is so loud that it can easily be considered noisy.
However, Master Ningchu's words had a calming effect.
Even the pig and the monk, who were fighting fiercely, stopped.
The wise monk, who had just been fighting with Tan Zhentian and Zishu, also stopped. After glancing at the two, he came to stand in front of Daoist Ningchu.
“Amitabha, since it is Daoist Ningchu’s request, we should naturally give him face.”
Daoist Master, rest assured, the matter between you concerns the stability of the martial arts world. As a member of Lingjue Temple, I have the obligation and responsibility to participate in it.
Please don't stand on ceremony, Master Ningchu. Before Zhihui came, the abbot repeatedly instructed that whatever Master Ningchu needs, Zhihui will naturally help if it's within its power.
Although Zhihui's words were polite and courteous, they also revealed Lingjue Temple's domineering nature.
The Taichu Temple is trying to resolve its own affairs, and you monks are just trying to embellish yourselves.
Even if Master Ningchu had a million reasons not to, he knew that now was not the time to argue with Lingjue Temple.
These monks always act according to their own principles, never giving up until they achieve their goals.
To resolve this matter perfectly, we'll definitely need to get a share of the spoils.
"Since it is the abbot's idea, then I thank the abbot in advance. If there are any difficulties, I will definitely ask for your help."
Master Ningchu's expression was unreadable, but his words conveyed a sense of compromise.
His words clearly pleased the wise monk; this was the power of their Lingjue Temple, something no one could refuse.
"Daoist Master, Daoist Master Ningchu, you must stand up for our Hidden Moon Sect!"
Upon seeing Master Ningchu's arrival, Ling Yiyi clung to him as if she had found a lifeline and begged for help.
Upon hearing the sound, Master Ningchu looked at Ling Yiyi, who was covered in blood, with a puzzled expression.
"I wonder who this girl is? Why is she covered in injuries?"
"Daoist Ningchu, I am Ling Yiyi, the eldest disciple of the Hidden Moon Sect. I am here to capture Tang Yifeng as per the mission issued by the Taichu Temple."
I never expected to be injured, and even to have caused the death of Situ Liang, the young master of the Situ family. I beg Daoist Ningchu to do my duty and kill this evil person who colluded with Jingyun Temple.
Ling Yiyi dragged Tian Zhenzhen into the mess.
Master Ningchu hadn't thought much of it at first, but he was somewhat taken aback when he heard that the young master of the Situ family had died here.
However, he never invited the Situ family, so if anything happens, it has nothing to do with him.
However, Tang Yifeng was the person he was looking for, and he ended up meeting Tian Zhenzhen in the direction Ling Yiyi was pointing.
