Chapter 97 Reining one’s hands
Zuo Lengchan said: "Do you have any way to kill this kid?"

Everyone looked at each other and thought, this Xin Zhen has such high martial arts skills and great martial arts skills, if they could block him, a dozen people could actually kill him.

But that kid was as slippery as a loach, how could he be blocked by them like this? Last night was the best opportunity, but unfortunately it was missed.

Seeing that no one was talking, Zuo Lengchan sighed inwardly. If Junior Brother Lu, a wise man, were here, he wouldn't be so clueless.

But suddenly thinking of Lu Bai, Zuo Lengchan immediately remembered that Lu Bai also died at the hands of Xin Zhen, and he became even angrier.

Zuo Lengchan looked at Tang Yingjie and said, "Junior Brother Tang, tell me what you think."

Tang Ying'e frowned and said, "Why don't you go down the mountain alone, Senior Brother? If he dares to show up, you can hold him back, and then we can surround him and kill him in one fell swoop. This way, we can eliminate future troubles."

Zuo Lengchan frowned and said nothing.

Ding Mian said: "This is a good idea. This Xin Zhen has repeatedly humiliated our Songshan Sect. We cannot let him live any longer. Otherwise, who in the Five Mountains Sword Sect will obey us? How can the master's grand plan be realized then?"

The others nodded in agreement.

Tang Yingjie said, "Master, what do you think?"

Fei Bin kept frowning, and Zuo Lengchan asked, "Junior Brother Fei, do you have anything to say?"

Fei Bin nodded and said, "We have been ignoring one person. If we really kill Xin Zhen, and he comes to our door, I am afraid there will be disaster."

Tang Yingjie asked, "Brother Fei, are you talking about Feng Qingyang?"

Fei Bin nodded and said, "That's right. Xin Zhen is so powerful at such a young age. Isn't his master Feng Qingyang even more powerful?"

Tang Yingye shook his head and said, "I have rarely heard of Feng Qingyang. Judging from his fame, he must have lived here for at least thirty or forty years ago. He must be in his eighties or nineties now. At such an old age, how much fighting power does he still have?
If he is really that strong, then why didn't he step into the martial arts world in the past few decades? Why did he turn a blind eye to the decline of the Huashan Sect?
Therefore, whether he exists or not is another matter. Perhaps he was fabricated by Xin Zhen himself.

But Xin Zhen is indeed our Songshan’s great enemy. If we allow him to continue doing this, our Songshan sect will really become a huge joke in the world.

Therefore, he will definitely die. If he doesn't die, all the grand plans of our Songshan Sect will come to nothing!"

Zuo Lengchan looked at the others and asked, "What do you think?"

Fei Bin said, "If the head brother goes down, Xin Zhen may not show up. It is better to let the young disciples go down, and then you hide by the side. When he appears, you will immediately entangle him and send a signal. Then we will rush down together and surround and kill him!"

Tang Yinge clapped his hands and laughed, "Senior Brother Fei's idea is one step further than mine!"

Zuo Lengchan nodded: "Okay, it's decided. We will go down the mountain tomorrow!"

That night, the seven or eight missing people came back one after another, but they were all missing a thumb. This made everyone in the Songshan Sect grit their teeth, and some people were inevitably frightened.

Although losing a thumb is much better than losing their lives, the sword skills they have practiced for more than ten or twenty years will be wasted, which is a lifelong regret for them.

On the second day, Zuo Lengchan took the most dangerous mountain road and then secretly approached the mountain road marked by Xin Zhen. However, he did not see any trace of Xin Zhen and could only wait patiently.

After waiting for some time, the agreed time arrived. The disciples of Songshan came down from the mountain, stood in front of the horizontal line for a while, and then crossed the line as if they were going to die for a just cause. However, Xin Zhen still did not show up.

The disciples of Songshan could only walk down the mountain trembling with fear. When they reached the foot of the mountain, still no one showed up. They were suddenly a little confused.

Zuo Lengchan was lurking nearby, his face looking even darker.

Zuo Lengchan lurked for three days, but still did not see Xin Zhen appear, so he returned to the Songshan Sect.

Fei Bin said: "Is Xin Zhen going to run away? He just wants to scare us." Tang Yingye frowned.

Zuo Lengchan waved his hand and said, "It's okay, we'll continue tomorrow."

The next day, Zuo Lengchan went into hiding again, but Xin Zhen still did not show up.

On the third day, the fourth day, the fifth day... Xin Zhen did not show up.

"Maybe he really left. Spread the news and let the local people pay attention to Xin Zhen's whereabouts. From now on, all disciples in the sect should go down the mountain and do what they need to do."

Zuo Lengchan looked a little regretful, but he was relieved in his heart. It was good that this matter had passed like this, otherwise he didn't know how it would end.

To be honest, Zuo Lengchan himself didn't really want to meet Xin Zhen. He was definitely one of the toughest opponents he had ever encountered.

He can't win in a fight, and he is even more cunning. After all, he has been in the underworld for so long, who would use such a strategy of blocking someone's door and killing them?

But Xin Zhen, after being blocked for a day, quietly left and rushed to Shandong overnight. He rested in the inn for two days and then went to Mount Tai.

He still has to go to Mount Tai to deliver a letter.

Moreover, Zuo Lengchan might have already planned to ambush him. If he went there the next day, he would be walking into a trap. It would be better for him to deliver the letter first and then go back to cause trouble.

For the Songshan School, it is a common saying that one can only steal for a thousand days, but one cannot guard against thieves for a thousand days.

Xin Zhen wanted to scare Songshan just this once, so that they would be terrified whenever they thought of him in the future!

One day, Xin Zhen came to the foot of Mount Tai and looked up at it.

Xin Zhen said with a smile: "When you climb Mount Tai, you will look down on the world. This is true. It is a pity that Mount Tai is so magnificent."

Xin Zhen shrugged.

The Taishan Sect ranks very high among the Five Mountains Sword Sects, and its strength is not much inferior to that of the Songshan Sect. It's a pity that the leader is not smart enough and is often used as a pawn. As a result, the Taishan Sect clearly has the ability to influence the situation of the Five Mountains Sword Sects, but is torn apart. It's also sad.

Xin Zhen climbed up Mount Tai but was stopped at the foot of the mountain.

"Please tell us your name and purpose of visit."

Xin Zhen was stopped by several disciples wearing Taishan Sect uniforms.

Xin Zhen bowed and said with a smile, "I am Xin Zhen from Huashan Sword Sect, and I would like to see Senior Brother Tianmen, the head of Taishan Sect."

When several Taishan disciples heard this, their faces suddenly changed. One of them asked, "Are you Xin Zhen?"

Xin Zhen knew something was wrong when he heard this, and nodded, saying, "I am Xin Zhen."

The Taishan disciple shouted, "Xin Zhen, what is your purpose in coming to Taishan?"

Xin Zhen chuckled and said, "Seeking to see Senior Brother Tianmen."

The Taishan disciple snorted coldly and said, "Humph, you came at the right time. It's just the right time to deal with the matter of Grand Master Yu Jizi. Come with us."

After saying this, the Taishan disciple said to the others, "You stay here and I'll take him up."
