Beichen Sword Sect's Headmaster's Secret Records

Chapter 287: Birds of a feather

Yan Zhongjie is a loyal and righteous man. Just by looking at his name, you can tell that he is a die-hard fan of the Immortal Palace. He is also a standard template of a famous official. As the prefect of Changshan County, he is able to gather the people's hearts in the county. With only a few thousand volunteers, he was able to delay tens of thousands of rebel troops. In fact, he has inflicted more DKP than the royal army.

However, the Immortal Palace was too weak, and the 80,000 troops were defeated by the 20,000 troops, with corpses everywhere. Changshan held out for several months, but was eventually defeated by the rebels and the city was massacred. The whole family of Prefect Yan was also hung here to be tortured as a warning to the public.

However, the Yan family was not completely wiped out, because Yan Changshan had a younger brother, Yan Wenzhong, the former governor of Pingyuan of the Gen Kingdom. Well, this one has both "loyalty" and "guardianship", which shows what kind of family education he had.

In short, one was loyal to Changshan, the other was loyal to Pingyuan, the brothers gathered together, supported each other, and responded in unison. Moreover, the younger brother was more powerful, with a higher reputation than his brother, and extraordinary talent, so he was elected as the leader of the rebels, and once gathered 200,000 soldiers and civilians from Gen State to fight against the various divisions of the Northern Army, defeating the rebels one after another and tying down a large number of troops. It was this man's arrangement that forced Shi Jiao to split his troops and retreat from the Gen River.

It's a pity that just by looking at the name of the place, you know that Pingyuan is not suitable for defense. And when infantry fights cavalry, no matter how many times they win, it is useless if they can't defeat and annihilate them. If they defeat you once, you are doomed. They will kill and reap all the way, and you can't escape.

Therefore, the main force of the rebel army led by Yan Pingyuan ultimately could not escape the fate of being defeated by the Turks in the field battle. It was just that it was easier for them to escape. Now it seems that the remnants have retreated to the mountains to fight guerrilla warfare. So far, there has been no news that he has been killed, otherwise the head of this rebel leader would have been hung up for public display.

"The nobles and clan leaders of Gen State either fled south with the king or surrendered to the bandits. Only a few stood up to resist, and most of them died in the battle."

"It is impossible for these aristocratic families to give up their ancestral property that they have managed for a hundred years in the mortal world and move their families to the mountains to practice. Naturally, they will either worship the Immortal Lord or kneel to the Heavenly King. In this case, my Sword Sect will inevitably support one or two separatist forces to wave the flag and shout for support."

"The Yan brothers are a prominent local family. They were able to rally the people and resist the stone dragon before, which shows their reputation and ability. As long as they are alive, the Hebei Volunteer Army will follow their lead. Apart from them, I am afraid that no one else can convince the people. If we cannot control the Sword Sect, other Xuanmen will also take action, and the majority of Genzhou's resources will be taken by others."

"Now there is only Yan Pingyuan left. If we can win over this outstanding leader of the righteous army and make him an outer disciple of our Sword Sect, and make him a helper of the Xuan Sect, when we wipe out the bandits one day, with such a righteous man waving the flag and shouting for support, we can take all of Hebei. With a talent like him, there is nothing he can't do, and we disciples don't have to worry about mining and firewood."

Huiming Zhantie happily killed a large number of people. He tied the hair of the captives together and held it in his hands, chattering and jumping for joy.

Tiedan looked at Yan Changshan's head in his hand with suspicion.

"The Yan family is clearly a loyal dog of the imperial court, and they are quite dignified. They are not afraid of death, so how can they switch to the Sword Sect and become dogs?"

Huiming took the other end with both hands, wiped it clean, and wrapped it with a brocade handkerchief, which was considered a special treatment.
"Who in this world is truly loyal to the court? They are just after fame, wealth and status. Since the brothers are not seeking wealth or official positions, they are just seeking fame and making the Yan family a first-class family."

"But as long as he dares to risk his life and go against the stone dragon, we will help him with a sword. Whether his Yan family has the ability to go down in history and compete for supremacy in the Central Plains depends on his own ability."

"Besides, it doesn't matter if Yan Pingyuan doesn't agree. There are many examples of ancestors who were heroes but descendants who were useless. As long as we take him into the mountains and find an outer disciple to marry him, and pass on the family lineage and continue the generations, the Yan family will be members of our Sword Sect and will be able to be used by me. I have no choice but to agree."

Well, Tiedan roughly understood Huiming Zhantie’s advice and understood Jianzong’s plan.

Now Xuanmen wants to gain a firm foothold in Hebei, win over younger brothers, cut down trees and open mines, but it is not possible to just knock on doors door to door. No matter how hard they try, they are always jumping back and forth between the Immortal Venerable and the Heavenly King. How can they jump into the arms of your Demon Sect in one go?

Therefore, we must first raise a banner and hold a righteous cause in hand to win the hearts of the people. Those royal princes, dukes, generals and ministers must not be selected, otherwise they would be making wedding clothes for the Immortal Palace. Therefore, the Yan family, a local family with reputation, ability and achievements, is the most ready-made banner.

You see, the people are loyal and chaste, and the whole family is full of loyal and brave people, which not only highlights the tyranny of the rebels, but also highlights the incompetence of the king's army. With such a good banner to call for action, the local clans will certainly be willing to pledge allegiance.

When the time comes, it is not about offering resources to the Demon Sect for protection, but supporting the leader of the rebel army in exchange for the support of the Xuanmen allies. That would be like a tiger shaking its body and bowing its head.

With or without this righteous cause, the difficulty of doing things will be different.

"But you have to hurry up, sir. Yan Changshan is dead, and only Yan Pingyuan is left. If he dies too, we'll have to find someone else."

"I'm afraid that fellow Xuanmen practitioners are all looking for him. If we let others seize the initiative, we will be in a passive position."

That's true. Genzhou is vast and rich. It's not just the Sword Sect that wants to plunder its resources. The nine major sects are all eyeing this piece of fat meat. So naturally they all want to grab the leader of the rebel army.

Fortunately, Tiedan also had the upper hand. With a head in hand, he could follow the cause and effect and find Yan Pingyuan first.

It would be best if we could form an alliance with him. If we can't convince him, we can just take him back to the mountain and let him be trained. Anyway, didn't they say that there were many daughters waiting to be married in the family? As long as we had the orphan of the Yan family, it would be enough.

So Tiedan turned his head to look at the people on the tower.
"Are you going to fight me or not? If you don't, I'll leave."

The soldiers on the upper floor looked in silence at the hundreds of floating corpses on the drawbridge, in the city tower, and in the moat.

Well, the corpse was hung here for demonstration, so it was not easy for people to collect it. It was already heavily guarded. So the guards at the city gate immediately mobilized the armored soldiers to rush out and arrest the person.

Then the sword fairy on the bridge suddenly turned into a ball...

And his eyes...

Seeing these people trembling with fear and shrinking, closing the city gates tightly, and no one dared to come out, Tiedan also felt bored. He calculated casually and felt that his destiny was in the west, so he wrapped up the sword light, took Huiming Zhantie, and flew all the way with the sword light, relying on his feeling to find the trace of Yan Pingyuan.

"Master, over there! There's a sword fight going on!"

"Go and have a look, sir. Maybe that's the person we want to kill!"

On the road, I saw the sword fight from afar. Huiming and Zhantie both had lights in their eyes. They licked their bright red lips, looking hungry and thirsty.

However, Tiedan could also understand this feeling, and although the Changshan Plain might be very important to Benshan, it was just a dollar to him, so he didn't take it seriously. So he let the sword light fall down to join in the fun.

It has to be said that the world is truly in chaos now, and the entire world of immortal cultivation has become restless. In the past, the immortal list and the divine list suppressed them, and except for the demon sects and cults who dared to kill officials and rebel and do whatever they wanted, most of the miscellaneous cultivators in the mountains and wilds were afraid of the military force of the Immortal Palace, and had to abide by the rules more or less, and could only serve as worshippers to the powerful families.

But now the world is in chaos, the Immortal Palace is no longer viable, and the aristocratic families are no longer viable. The era of the strong being respected and the survival of the fittest has finally arrived. Therefore, not only are the rebels killing people wantonly, but these miscellaneous cultivators have also untied the shackles of human nature and do whatever they want.

At this moment, Tiedan took a look and saw a large plain with a fort in the middle. It looked like a wealthy family. All the land as far as the eye could see belonged to their family. They must be either rich or noble.

However, at this time the family was robbed. The able-bodied men who were guarding the house had probably joined the army before and had all died in the battlefield. The old, weak and sick were unable to stop the bandits, who had already been rushed into the fort and were burning, killing and looting.

Although most of the aristocratic families had high walls and large courtyards, and set up barriers and formations, and the children of the noble families were able to practice breathing and Qi training, but no matter how solid the fortress was, it could not withstand an attack from both inside and outside.

At this moment, Tiedan casually calculated and looked around, and saw that the courtyard was intact, and there were no signs of forced attack. Among the bandits who committed crimes, many were dressed as servants. It was obvious that the servants had rebelled against their superiors, colluded with the bandits, and lifted the seal of the magic circle from the inside.

Now the manor in the castle had been breached, the men in the family had asked the servants to avenge their grudges, and they were killed and chopped to pieces, while the women in the backyard were robbed. Only an Outer Dan Yuanying, an ancestor-like figure, was left, desperately protecting his grandson, and was besieged by four Jindan casual cultivators, fighting and cursing at the same time.

It sounds like one of the four was originally a servant of this family, but today he developed evil intentions, secretly poisoned the ancestor, contacted three bandit kings, killed the master's entire family, and planned to divide the luggage and property and go their separate ways.

Tiedan withdrew his sword, and the three men fell from the air. Everyone in the field was shocked. The old man had seen a lot of things in the world, so he was the first to react. He knelt down and kowtowed.

"Please help me, Sword Immortal! Fan Juan is willing to offer all his wealth to me!"

A group of casual cultivators looked up, and saw nine-colored light behind the sword immortal, the sword shining, and the Taoist energy rising into the sky. With their little Taoist power, they could not see through the immortal's true appearance.

There were two maids beside him, one holding a sword and the other holding a whisk, both of them were stunningly beautiful, with faces that could outshine the moon.

No one who has practiced for many years is a fool. Of course they know that the true practitioners of the three major sects have arrived. Naturally, they know what is good and what is bad, so they quickly take advantage of the situation to escape.

Unexpectedly, the maidservant was so vicious that she started smashing with a whisk. With a loud "bang", the traitorous servant was beaten to death on the spot, with his head broken and blood all over the place and his brains splattered on the ground!
Huiming, "How dare you! Who dares to leave without the order from the Master? Kneel!"

The three bandits' legs went weak and they knelt on the ground. The old man looked delighted.

Tiedan was not happy and pouted.

"Is he there?"

Huiming looked for it in the letter.
"Have."

Tiedanxi,
"killed."

"Respect the law!"

Zhan Tie raised the Beichen sword, and the sword light came and swept the old man's head off, rolling to the ground.

Bandit, "..."

Tiedan Road,
"All the people in the Fan family asked you to kill them."

Bandit "???"

"From now on, the Fan family's land will be handed over to you to manage. Take half of the harvest every month and send it to Cangjian Villa as offerings." Before everyone could react, Tiedan shot out a sword energy with a flick of his finger, which pierced through the lungs and directly killed three people, seriously injuring them and leaving them paralyzed on the ground.

"Only I can dissolve this sword energy. If you don't, you will die."

The bandits cried,

"Have mercy!" "Hand it over! We'll hand it over!" "Where is Cangjian Villa..."

Then Tiedan looked at the child from the Fan family who was standing beside the old ancestor, crying, gritting his teeth and glaring at him.
"What the hell are you looking at! Your family is no good either! I am Tiedan from Guangxia Mountain!
I stole your family's ancestral property! If you want revenge, come to me!"

Then Tiedan turned around and cursed at the bandits.

"You too! Come to me for revenge!"

The bandits panicked, "No, no, no, no."

Iron Egg,

"Anything else?"

Calculate the dark and bright,

"There is also a fruit orchard, which is also his family's property."

Iron Egg,

"I'm asking... Never mind, you have to pay half of the fruit! Do you hear me?"

Who would have thought that the bandits would hesitate for a moment.

Zhan Tie drew his sword, "How dare you!"

The bandits knelt.
"My Immortal! There is a monster in the orchard!"

"We were forced out by that demon!"

"That monster was originally defeated by an ancient immortal and sealed in the forest!"

"This old beast was disgusted by the refugees from the famine occupying his forest and eating his fruits, so he actually unleashed the magic seal, resurrected the demon, and even stole living people to feed it!"

"That monster's appetite grew. In a few months, it ate all the victims in the forest and slaughtered the entire village. It's about to transform!"

The Fan family boy was so angry that he couldn't help but speak out.

"You! You're lying! Grandpa wouldn't do such a thing!"

The bandits sneered and said to each other,
"You little bastard! How do you think the rebels dare not come and rob your land?"

"Just ask your servants and you'll know! They draw lots to die every day!"

"It's not that I'm being pushed into a corner! Who would risk their life to rebel?"

The Fan family's little boy was shocked and angry.
"No, no, it's impossible, nonsense, it's impossible..."

Tiedan counted with his fingers and sneered.
"Your whole family deserves to be raided. Wait!"

Tiedan flew into the sky in a flash, leaving a long rainbow behind, and arrived in the forest in the blink of an eye.

There was indeed a demonic aura in the forest. Tiedan stared at it and without saying a word, he killed it with a sword.

"Wow!"

A fruit tree in the forest was cut into two pieces! Purple blood rushed to the sky! Blood gushed out like a fountain!
Then, a little purple man jumped out from the bloody tree trunk, cursing!

Tiedan looked closely, but couldn't tell what kind of monster the little man was. His body seemed to be made of roots, mud, and flesh. He had a nose, eyes, arms, and legs. From a distance, he looked like a human body, but from a close distance, he didn't look like a human body. He looked extremely ferocious and weird, and terrifying. It was indeed a demon that was about to transform.

"Acridine——!"

The villain screamed! Countless poisonous needles spewed out of his mouth! They shot straight at Tiedan's face!

The Yaoguang sword ball spun, cutting off the poisonous thorns one after another. However, one of them broke through the sword and stabbed in front of Tiedan! It was caught by the raised finger!
Oh wow, that’s pretty impressive.

However, as Tiedan's estimation turned out to be correct, this Yaoguang Sword Ball was not an invincible body-protecting skill. In principle, it was a technique that controlled a large amount of sword light and rapidly rotated outside the body to form a blade shield.

Therefore, theoretically, as long as one uses more and faster dense sword rain like this little guy's skills, with a waterfall-like impact, theoretically one can still break through the sword ball's defense.

Tiedan flicked the needle.
"Come again."

Little man, "Huh?"

Tiedan glared, and a formless sword shadow appeared on the ground, cutting the villain in half.

"I told you to come again!"

The little man was terrified, "Ah ...

"Wow——!"

The villain vomited blood like crazy! Tens of thousands of poisonous needles and stingers spewed out of his mouth! Like a high-pressure water gun, it sprayed straight at Tiedan!
Pinch the secret, control the sword

"Yaoguang Sword Waterfall"

"Ding ding ding ding ding!"

Also tens of thousands!

With a touch of the fingertips, a dense rain of sword lights shot out like a torrential rain!

Rain of swords versus rain of needles!
Point to point!
Sword lights and magic lights collided with each other! Dazzling and dazzling flower lights bloomed in the sky and fought fiercely for several seconds!

"boom!"

"Gah——!"

Kill!

The sword stream is rolling down! The needle rain is shooting at the sword! It is blasting down on the head! The demon is coming!

Thousands of swords pierce the heart!

Kill to the dregs!

Ashes!

The sword immortal, with his sword pointing to the ground and green eyes shining, was hanging high in the sky, looking coldly at the huge pit that had exploded in the forest after being blasted by the sword waterfall.

All I saw were white bones and corpses lying all over the field under the tree roots. At a glance, it was hard to count how many lives had been killed.

"Humph, birds of a feather, all demons..."
