Volume 19: Legend of Lu Xiaofeng Chapter 522: Turning Defense into Offense
Outside the Golden Palace.
Su Weiyun slowly walked out of the Golden Throne Hall that countless people dream of entering.
It's daybreak.
"What do you decide to do with Ye Gucheng?"
"He is a peerless swordsman. I want to keep him in the palace to protect me. If he can be promoted to a god, then the safety of the Forbidden City will be worry-free from now on."
"Um."
Su Weiyun suddenly said: "I want to ask you for one more thing."
Bai Yujing asked: "What's the matter?"
Su Weiyun said: "I plan to pacify the Western Demon Cult."
Yu Luosha and he have completely fallen out, and there is no possibility of reconciliation.
Bai Yujing pondered and said, "How many troops do you want? Do you want martial arts masters, the imperial army, or the Six Gates constables?"
Su Weiyun said: "Neither is necessary. I just need an identity and a name."
Bai Yujing asked: "Is it that simple?"
Su Weiyun said: "It's that simple."
"My identity is the Imperial Envoy to Pingxi appointed by the Emperor, and the title was asked for by me on behalf of Mu Dao Ren."
Bai Yujing asked, "Wudang elder Mu Dao Ren? What title do you want for him?"
Su Weiyun walked down the stairs step by step, while Bai Yujing stood motionless in front of the Golden Palace.
"Master Fengmu is the head of Northern Wudang."
Bai Yujing laughed and said, "Wudang is the orthodox Taoist sect in the world. It has always been the only one of its kind. How can there be any distinction between north and south?"
Su Weiyun also smiled and said, "It was only after I met Gu Qingfeng, the head of the Northern Taoist sect, that I realized that the Taoist sect could have such identities. It doesn't matter. Although the Wudang sect is still peaceful now, it will soon be divided into factions."
——The purpose of Mu Dao Ren establishing Ghost Villa and gathering masters from all walks of life was to regain his position as the head of Wudang!
Bai Yujing no longer asked the reason, but said: "Okay, I will issue an imperial edict immediately and announce it to the world; as for the matter of Mu Dao Ren, you can ask someone to tell him when the need arises."
Su Weiyun stepped out of the Forbidden City, and Bai Yujing did not see her off.
He also had to prepare for the next morning court session.
"Then I would like to thank the emperor on behalf of Mu Dao Ren."
After Su Weiyun finished speaking, he had already walked dozens of feet away. His speed was truly astonishing.
Then Bai Yujing spoke softly in a voice that only he could hear.
"You're welcome."
…
September 16th.
Beijing, Hefangzhai.
Su Weiyun made an appointment with Mu Dao Ren to meet here.
Of course Mu Dao Ren did not dare not come. Putting aside Su Weiyun's martial arts, the fact that he knew the secret of Mu Dao Ren's "Ghost Villa" meant that Mu Dao Ren had no choice but to be coerced by him.
So every time Mu Dao Ren saw Su Weiyun, his face looked unhappy.
"Master Su, the day of the decisive battle has passed, and I will also travel around the world."
Su Weiyun smiled and said, "From now on, you no longer need to travel around. I can give you a great opportunity!"
Taoist Mu was surprised and asked, "Great fortune? Where does it come from?"
Su Weiyun said: "I have asked the emperor to appoint you as the head of Wudang."
"this……"
Taoist Mu was shocked, and after thinking for a long time, he said, "The head of Wudang must have the Seven-Star Taoist Crown, which symbolizes the position of the head, and the Zhenwu Sword passed down by the Taoist Master Sanfeng to be orthodox."
"Although the emperor has spoken personally, I am afraid that Wudang..."
He didn't finish his words, but everyone could understand what he meant.
Su Weiyun said: "You can set some new rules for the Wudang Sect. You can even not establish a sect in Wudang Mountain."
Taoist Mu frowned and asked in confusion, "Not in Wudang Mountain? What does that mean?"
Su Weiyun said: "I mean you can go to the northwest."
Taoist Mu said, "Northwest? It's far away from the Central Plains, bandits are rampant there, and there's also the Western Demon Sect wreaking havoc. Kunlun was destroyed first, so who would dare to go there and get burned?"
"I dare you."
Su Weiyun asked calmly, "How strong is your Ghost Villa? If I help you destroy the Western Demon Cult, do you have the confidence to control the bandits in the northwest?"
Mu Dao Ren was stunned and did not answer immediately.
Su Weiyun said: "Now is a time of trouble. You can see that whether it is the current emperor or the mysterious Wu Ming who suddenly appeared, they are all superior people, masters among masters. If you still limit your vision to Wudang Mountain, it is too narrow-minded!"
Taoist Mu's expression was uncertain, and after a while, he sighed and said, "Well, well, today I will have a good plan with you!"
"Of course I am the top expert in Ghost Villa right now. Besides me, there are four Five Arhats from Shaolin Temple!"
"Five Arhats?"
"Many years ago, the Shaolin Temple had five Arhat protectors: Wulong, Wuhu, Wushi, Wuxiang, and Wubao. But later, Wulong made a big mistake and died while taking the precepts. The other four tried to assassinate the abbot but failed. In the end, they were taken in by me."
It is said that the Shaolin sect was unable to recover for many years because of this major change.
"What are their cultivation levels?"
"The four of you have lived in the Sutra Library in Shaolin for a long time, and later made some breakthroughs. Now you are all at the second level of Grandmaster. Moreover, you are all brothers with deep inner strength and are proficient in the Shaolin Arhat formation. If you unite, you will not be weaker than me."
Su Weiyun nodded and said, "Okay."
He actually remembered these four people on his wedding dress.
There are already many masters' names on his wedding dress, including Wu Ming, Bai Yujing, Ximen Chuxue, Ye Gucheng, Wei Ziyun... The names of these masters and their martial arts realms are all embroidered on it by him.
No one could guess what mystery he was trying to play.
Taoist Mu ignored this and continued, "I have a direct disciple named Shi He, who has inherited all my true sword skills. I also have a lay disciple named Zhong Wu Gu who has been following me in Wudang Sect for a long time. He has now become a grandmaster."
Su Weiyun asked: "Anything else?"
Taoist Mu pondered and said, "There is also Yu Huan, the owner of Feiyu Island in the South China Sea. Although he is not a master, his underwater skills are extremely strong. If he fights in the water, he is no less than a great master."
Su Weiyun shook his hand and said, "There's no need to talk about those who are not Grandmasters. Let Zhong Wugu stay in Ghost Villa to guard it. Including us, um... there are seven Grandmasters and one God."
Seven great masters and one divine being.
This force can run rampant almost anywhere and at any time.
Taoist Mu asked, "Seven great masters? Who is the other one ?"
Zhong Wugu would not leave, and together with Wuhu, Wushi, Wuxiang, Wubao, Shihe and himself, there were only six people in total.
Su Weiyun said: "The other one is Lu Xiaofeng."
Taoist Mu asked, "Is Lu Xiaofeng going too?"
Su Weiyun said: "Yu Luosha plotted against him, how could he not go? His poison has been cured, he just needs to rest for ten days, and then we will set off."
Mu Dao Ren said, "Ten days... is almost enough for me to go back to Ghost Manor to mobilize manpower."
Su Weiyun sighed, "Those people have had it hard, give them a chance to start over. But you have to remember, if anyone commits a heinous crime again, I will never forgive them!"
Mu Daoren's face became serious: "I will inform them of your original words."
Su Weiyun said, "Then go quickly and come back quickly. Ximen Chuxue and I still have something to talk about."
Mu Dao Ren hesitated for a moment and finally left.
If he could occupy a large area of the northwestern martial arts world and be appointed as the head of Wudang by the emperor himself, it might be the best choice for him.
It is not only worthy of Wudang, but also worthy of myself.
Su Weiyun looked at Mu Dao Ren walking away, shook his head, sighed, and then went into the house to find Ximen Chuxue.
In his opinion, Mu Dao Ren originally had profound martial arts skills, superb swordsmanship, and was from a legitimate Wudang family. However, he could not let go of his past as the leader, which was too painful to recall. Therefore, it would be extremely difficult for him to be promoted to a god.
On the contrary, Ximen Chuxue might be able to catch up and break through quickly.
