Chapter 178 Monk Peng

Suddenly, someone attacked with a hidden weapon, and the monk was in a panic. The Taoist holding the sword shouted, "Monk Peng, we don't want your life, why are you risking your life? You just need to hand over Bai Guishou, and we can all laugh and leave, isn't that wonderful?"

Chang Yuchun was surprised and whispered, "Is this Monk Peng?"

Xin Zhen had some guesses in his mind, and sure enough, it was confirmed to be Monk Peng. He nodded when he heard that.

Chang Yuchun whispered, "He is a big shot in our Ming Cult. We must save him. My lady, take Zhiruo forward and don't look back. Butterfly Valley is just ahead."

From what Xin Zhen heard from Chang Yuchun's words, he thought that he would have no chance of survival if he left.

Xin Zhen moved his arm and felt the arrow wound on his back. He felt that there was no pain anymore. He smiled and said, "Brother Chang, let's go together."

Chang Yuchun said anxiously, "Young Master, you can't go out. These so-called famous and upright sects hate us Mingjiao disciples to the core. And you are the only son of the master. If you go out, they will kill you!"

Xin Zhen hummed, then stepped out from behind the tree. Someone immediately shouted, "Who is it?"

Chang Yuchun quickly ran out from behind the tree, walked in front of Xin Zhen to protect him, and Zhou Zhiruo also followed him out.

Everyone turned around and looked towards the forest, only to see a big bearded man with two children, and they felt relieved.

The Taoist with a long beard shouted, "Who are you? Why are you hiding here?"

Chang Yuchun shouted, "You so-called reputable and upright people, are you just going to use your numbers to bully the few?"

One of the two women sneered, "When dealing with evil spirits, what martial arts rules are needed?"

Xin Zhen walked out from behind Chang Yuchun, looked at Monk Peng and said with a smile, "Hello, Mr. Peng."

Monk Peng looked at Xin Zhen and asked hesitantly, "Who are you?"

Xin Zhen smiled and said, "My late father is Zhou Ziwang, and I am Zhou Yan."

As soon as these words were spoken, the eight orthodox people were immediately shocked. The recent uprising in Yuanzhou, Jiangxi had been making a lot of noise, and Zhou Ziwang's name had spread far and wide. They didn't expect to meet his son here today.

Monk Peng looked at Xin Zhen carefully, nodded and said, "What a pity for your father."

He looked at Chang Yuchun again and asked, "Who are you?"

Chang Yuchun quickly clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Peng, I am a soldier under the lord. When the lord was defeated, I protected the young master and fled, thinking of returning to Guangmingding."

Monk Peng nodded and said, "You guys should leave quickly. Don't get involved in this mess."

The woman who had just spoken shouted, "Since you are a demon from the Demon Cult, don't even think about leaving now. Leave your lives to us."

Xin Zhen looked at the woman. She was pretty, with a delicate face. However, upon closer inspection, he found that she had high cheekbones, her skin was not fair enough, her mouth was too big, and most importantly, there was a mean look in her eyes and eyebrows.

When the fight just now was going on, it seemed like someone was calling out "Miss Ding" or "Miss Ji" or something like that. I guess these two women were Ding Minjun and Ji Xiaofu.

Judging from her appearance, words and behavior, the woman who was speaking must be Ding Minjun.

Xin Zhen smiled and said, "Who do you want to kill?"

Ding Minjun said, "As long as they are demons from the Demon Cult, they must be killed!" Xin Zhen pointed at himself, then at Zhou Zhiruo, and said with a smile, "Kill children too?"

Ding Minjun said: "You, the demons of the Demon Cult, will only harm more good people if you stay in this world. Every time you kill one person, you will accumulate merit. You are young now, but you grew up in the Demon Cult. When you grow up, you will naturally become demons of the Demon Cult!"

Xin Zhen nodded repeatedly and said, "What Miss Ding said is indeed insightful. It seems that there is no way to end this peacefully today."

Peng Heshan saw Xin Zhen grumbling and couldn't help but said, "Why are you talking so much to these people? Just leave now."

Xin Zhen smiled and said, "Mr. Peng, don't worry. I have just started practicing martial arts. I will hurt people if I make a move, and I may kill people if I am not careful. I have to see who not to kill and who to kill."

When Xin Zhen said this, Ding Minjun raised her eyebrows and said, "How dare you, a little kid, speak so shamelessly? Are you tired of living at such a young age?"

Xin Zhen chuckled and walked towards Ding Minjun. Chang Yuchun hurried to stop Xin Zhen, but saw that Xin Zhen somehow stepped past him and walked towards Ding Minjun.

Chang Yuchun said anxiously: "My dear, you don't even have a weapon in your hand..."

Xin Zhen's steps seemed ordinary, but in a flash he was in front of Ding Minjun. Ding Minjun was a little surprised and stabbed Xin Zhen with a sword.

All I heard was Ji Xiaofu shouting, "Senior sister, don't hurt anyone!"

Xin Zhen chuckled and said, "Miss Ding, can you lend me your sword?"

Ding Minjun felt her hand go numb and the sword slipped out of her hand, but she saw Xin Zhen retreat a few steps and the sword in his hand was actually hers.
Ding Minjun was shocked and angry, and immediately pounced on Xin Zhen. Xin Zhen took a look and raised his sword slightly, and saw Ding Minjun bumping into the tip of the sword herself.

Ding Minjun screamed in fear. At this moment, Ji Xiaofu suddenly arrived, grabbed Ding Minjun's arm and dragged her away.

Everyone was shocked.

Xin Zhen snatched the sword with his bare hands, and combined with this move, it was clear that this child was a master.

Monk Peng clapped his hands and laughed, "I didn't expect Zhou Ziwang to have raised such an amazing son. Amazing!"

Xin Zhen glanced at Monk Peng and said, "Monk Peng, I call you sir, but you call your deceased father by his name in person. Do you know how to be polite?"

Monk Peng choked up and thought that Zhou Ziwang was just one of the disciples. Monk Peng was one of the Five Sanren, so what if I called him by his name? However, thinking that Zhou Ziwang was dead, it was not appropriate for him to call him by his name in front of his son. He immediately said, "Zhou Yan, I, Peng Yingyu, was wrong in this matter. I apologize to you!"

Xin Zhen smiled and nodded, "Okay, Mr. Peng, you are a real man who can correct his mistakes."

After saying this, he looked at Ding Minjun, who was still in shock. Ji Xiaofu held a sword in front of Ding Minjun and said, "Brother Zhou, what my sister just said is not true. Although we are irreconcilable with the Demon Cult, we will not attack children."

Xin Zhen glanced at Ji Xiaofu and said, "Go away. I won't kill you."

Ding Minjun said angrily: "Just you? There are high monks from Shaolin Temple, masters from Dian Cang Sect, and Taoist priests from Kunlun Sect here. You think you can spare our lives just by asking, aren't you too arrogant!"

The Taoist with a long beard shouted, "You kid, leave now. We won't kill kids, but if you insist on coming up, don't blame us for being ruthless!"

Xin Zhen shook his head, thinking that it was useless to talk too much with these people. The important thing was to beat them off and rest early.
