Duan Tianya, however, seemed to not quite understand, unable to articulate any changes in his foster father.
Haitang shook her head, “Foster father has changed; he feels different.”
“Perhaps it’s just a misconception.”
“But I still decided to try and see if I can persuade Fahai. What if there’s hope?”
At the same time, inside Six Doors.
The atmosphere was as heavy as iron!
The constables all held their breath, not daring to make a sound.
Zhuge Zhengwo sat to the side, waiting quietly.
Beside him lay four people, none other than Wuqing and her companions.
All four had been severely injured by Fahai and were still unconscious.
An elderly healer was examining their injuries.
After a long while, the old man finally stopped.
“Divine Doctor Xue, how are they?” Zhuge Zhengwo asked urgently.
The old man slowly shook his head, his expression dim.
“Their internal injuries are extremely severe. Without Spirit Medicine to save them, it will be difficult for them to recover.”
“Even if their lives are saved, their martial arts will be crippled.”
Hearing this news, Zhuge Zhengwo was consumed by rage, slamming his palm onto the table!
In an instant, the table shattered into countless splinters!
The Four Great Arresters were Disciples he had personally trained, on whom he had spent years of effort and poured all his expectations!
Their bond was as deep as blood relatives!
They were only stronger, not weaker, than the three secret agents under Zhu Wushi.
Now, they had all been completely destroyed by Fahai alone!
How could Zhuge Zhengwo swallow this insult!
Immediately, his fury soared to the heavens!
“Fahai!”
“This old man vows to be irreconcilable with you!”
This was the first time Zhuge Zhengwo had been so enraged since taking over Six Doors!
The intensity of his fury struck fear into everyone present, causing cold sweat to pour down their backs!
This outburst of anger was not only because Fahai was arrogant and dared to disregard the authority of Six Doors.
It was also because he and Fahai already had a personal grudge!
That damned Fahai!
What Zhuge Zhengwo thought about day and night was to personally kill him and avenge his Disciples.
However, Taixu was truly too terrifying!
This person usually kept a low profile and was tolerant, but his true strength made him a top expert even within the Heavenly Human Realm!
That battle shocked everyone!
Zhuge Zhengwo had long sensed Taixu's terrifying nature!
To kill Fahai, he first had to overcome Taixu!
But facing a Heavenly Human who could fight two at once, trying to pass him was easier said than done!
As he was contemplating, a subordinate suddenly rushed in with a report.
“Chief Constable, Song Yuanqiao of Wudang requests an audience.”
“Song Yuanqiao?”
Zhuge Zhengwo was slightly surprised. Wudang had suffered heavy losses; why would Song Yuanqiao suddenly come to visit instead of presiding over the overall situation on the mountain?
“Please invite him in quickly.”
Not long after, Song Yuanqiao entered the hall.
“Greetings, Chief Constable Zhuge. My Master intends to join forces with Six Doors to collectively pressure Shaolin into handing over Fahai.”
“This is a letter personally written by my Master.”
With that, he took out Zhang Sanfeng’s handwritten letter from his bosom and presented it.
Zhuge Zhengwo took it and read it, his face immediately lighting up with joy!
“As expected of Immortal Master Zhang, to have such a brilliant plan! Excellent! Excellent!”
His face was filled with excitement.
Zhang Sanfeng suggested in the letter to ally with Cihang Jingzhai.
He and Wudang both knew that with the strength of their two factions alone, it would be difficult to shake Shaolin.
Therefore, Zhang Sanfeng suggested enlisting Cihang Jingzhai.
In recent years, the Great Sui’s national power had declined, and various heroes had risen.
The neighboring Great Tang was ambitious and already showed signs of annexing the Great Sui.
Cihang Jingzhai had long been loyal to the Great Sui, working tirelessly to maintain its territory and society.
If they could ally with the Great Ming’s Six Doors, they could use the Great Ming’s power to stabilize their own position.
At the same time, they could also resist the Great Tang’s relentless pressure.
Furthermore, with Wudang, Six Doors, and Cihang Jingzhai combined, their influence would be even greater, and they would exert more pressure when confronting Shaolin.
Cihang Jingzhai was one of the leaders of the Righteous Path, holding a crucial position.
With Wudang and Cihang Jingzhai jointly calling for action, Shaolin would inevitably fall into a passive position morally!
“This plan is brilliant!”
Zhuge Zhengwo’s eyes gleamed with excitement. If they could truly follow this plan,
this might just be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Such a strategy could achieve a win-win situation for all three parties!
Wudang and Six Doors joining forces could form an alliance to resist their common enemy and plot to capture Fahai!
Soon after, he personally wrote a secret letter, sealed it with fire wax, and ordered someone to deliver it by swift horse to Cihang Jingzhai in the Great Sui.
At this very moment, inside Cihang Jingzhai.
Fan Qinghui also received detailed news regarding the battle at Wudang!
Her heart was shaken, unable to hide her surprise!
Fahai, with his own strength alone, had broken Wudang’s proud “True Martial Seven Intercept Formation”!
He severely wounded many Jianghu experts!
Even Yun Feiyang, a Great Grandmaster, had his martial arts crippled, his life hanging in the balance!
Furthermore, three Saints had appeared and taken action because of him alone!
The entire Martial Forest was stirred into a storm because of him!
Fahai!
What a Fahai!
He was truly an unparalleled genius!
Fan Qinghui’s eyes narrowed slightly, and she murmured those two words softly.
“Fahai…”
“To think that Shaolin would go to such lengths for a Disciple!”
“The Abbot himself came, and The Four Divine Monks all appeared!”
“The three eminent monks of the ‘Du’ generation have not appeared in Jianghu for many years; this is already Shaolin’s strongest lineup.”
“For Fahai, they did not hesitate to openly clash with Wudang!”
“Why does Shaolin value this person so much?”
Even more astonishing was that Taixu, for Fahai alone, fought against two Heavenly Humans!
Everything was already self-evident.
“This time, Shaolin has indeed been unfair.”
The venerable Shaolin, for the sake of a Disciple, actively instigated a Jianghu conflict!
It was rumored that Fahai had once intended to leave Shaolin on his own due to the matter of the Nangong family.
But Shaolin not only refused but also fiercely went to war with Wudang for him!
Such blatant favoritism and protection of their own!
Shaolin could no longer be considered the leader of the Righteous Path!
Cihang Jingzhai and Wudang were both pillars of the Righteous Path in the world, so naturally, they leaned towards Wudang’s side.
“If this person is allowed to continue, he will eventually fall into the Demonic Path.”
Fan Qinghui’s expression was solemn.
And Shi Feixuan, beside her, also had a face full of astonishment.
Fahai actually possessed such ability?
To overpower the entire Wudang with his own strength!
What an astonishing and awe-inspiring demeanor!
When she heard that two Heavenly Humans had joined forces to try and capture Fahai, her heart tightened involuntarily…
But when she finally learned that he had escaped safely, she felt relieved.
No wonder he always acted calmly and confidently.
It turned out he was a Shaolin Disciple.
No wonder he had such extraordinary performance.
Hearing Fan Qinghui’s words, Shi Feixuan couldn’t help but speak up for Fahai.
“Master, you might have misunderstood.”
“The cause of this incident was Wudang’s Song Qingshu first provoking him, and later Wudang, without asking for reasons, used the Half-Step Demon Slaying Order, which led to today’s situation.”
“In my Disciple’s opinion, the fault is not with Fahai, but with Wudang.”
Fan Qinghui’s brows furrowed slightly upon hearing this.
In her eyes, Fahai indiscriminately killed innocents, severely injured many experts, and challenged Wudang; all these actions already showed the emergence of the Demonic Path!
Naturally, she found it intolerable.
Now hearing Shi Feixuan defending Fahai, her displeasure grew even stronger, and she snorted coldly, saying:
“I ordered you to recruit or eliminate this person.”
“Yet you returned without success, empty-handed. If not for that, there would be no such disaster today!”
Shi Feixuan quickly lowered her head and apologized.
“Master, your Disciple has made a mistake. Please punish your Disciple.”
Fan Qinghui gave a light hum, not saying anything more.
After all, she couldn't really punish her only Disciple.
Just then, a Disciple walked in with a letter.
“Sect Leader, this is a letter from Six Doors’ Chief Constable Zhuge Zhengwo to you.”
Zhuge Zhengwo?
Fan Qinghui was a little perplexed.
She didn't have much interaction with Zhuge Zhengwo; why would he suddenly send a letter?
