Chapter 129

Hearing Jiang Chen's words.

Dongfang Bubai couldn't help but roll her eyes at Jiang Chen.

What do you mean only that much?

You must know that the five heads of the Five Mountain Sword Sects are all powerhouses in the Free and Unfettered Heavenly Realm; although apart from Yao Yue Buqun and Zuo Zuo Lengchan, the other three just entered the Heavenly Realm, they are still experts in the Heavenly Realm no matter what.

Moreover.

No one knows if there are other hidden powerhouses in the Free and Unfettered Heavenly Realm, or even higher realms, in the Five Mountain Sword Sects.

For example, the senior expert Feng Luo Qingyang of the Sword Sect of the Huashan Sect who was proficient in the Nine Swords of Dugu back then.

Whether the other party is dead or living in seclusion now, no one knows.

And the Sun Moon Holy Cult.

Currently, apart from her, the Cult Leader...

Only the Left Emissary of Light, Xiang Wentian, and the White Tiger Hall Elder, Shangguan Yun, were existences at the Unfettered Heaven Realm.

Then there were the experts of the Vajra Mortal Realm and the Ease Earth Realm; the Sun Moon Divine Cult also had far fewer of these than the Five Mountains Sword Sects.

After all, the Five Mountains Sword Sects were formed by an alliance of five sects.

Although a single sect could not compare to the Sun Moon Divine Cult, when the five sects were combined, whether it was the powerhouses of the Unfettered Heaven Realm or the ordinary martial artists of the Mortal and Earth Realms, they were far beyond what the Sun Moon Divine Cult could compare to.

Therefore.

If it were really as Jiang Chen said, to go up and fight directly.

Then even if the Sun Moon Divine Cult could win in the end, it would be a pyrrhic victory, and who knows how many disciples under their banner would die.

In this place where the martial arts forces of the Great Ming Dynasty were intricate and complex.

If a sect suffered heavy losses, it would easily arouse the covetousness of other sects; one careless move, and there would be the danger of being wiped out.

"What about your Sun Moon Divine Cult's Ren Woxing?"

Listening to Dongfang Bubai's explanation, Jiang Chen asked with some curiosity: "Ren Woxing's strength should at least be at the Great Unfettered Realm, right?"

"Sect Leader Ren suffered a cultivation deviation while practicing the Star-Sucking Great Art."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen.

Immediately widened his eyes: "Then this position of Sun Moon Divine Cult Leader wasn't snatched by you from Ren Woxing, was it?"

"What snatched?"

"Sect Leader Ren treated me well, and even allowed me to practice the sect's supreme divine art, the Sunflower Manual; how could I possibly snatch the position of Sect Leader?"

Dongfang Bubai blinked innocently and said with dissatisfaction: "Young Master Jiang, in your eyes, am I that kind of person?"

And hearing Jiang Chen's words.

Lianxing, who was on the side, could not help but giggle:

"Young Master, Sister Dongfang is not that kind of person. The reason the position of Sect Leader fell to Sister Dongfang."

"It is because Sect Leader Ren felt his strength had fallen and he could not suppress the disciples within the sect. Coupled with the fact that Sister Dongfang's strength greatly increased after practicing the Sunflower Manual, breaking through to the late stage of the Great Unfettered Realm in just a few years, Sect Leader Ren passed the position of Sect Leader to Sister Dongfang."

"So that's how it is." Jiang Chen suddenly realized.

No need to ask.

The development trajectory of the Sun Moon Divine Cult in this world had clearly deviated from the one in his memory.

And.

Listening to Lianxing's meaning.

Dongfang Bubai practicing this Sunflower Manual as a woman seemed to have no side effects.

Immediately after.

Jiang Chen asked again:

"I heard that the Purple Mist Divine Art is for beginners, and the Sunflower Manual is for reaching the pinnacle. Is that Yao Yue Buqun of the Five Mountains Sword Sects practicing the Purple Mist Divine Art?"

"Yes."

Dongfang Bubai nodded, looking at Jiang Chen with some surprise.

She discovered that although the other party was a disciple of Snow Moon City in the Northern Li Dynasty, he seemed extremely knowledgeable about affairs in the Great Ming martial arts world.

Jiang Chen pondered for a moment.

Then, looking at Dongfang Bubai, he smiled faintly: "I will teach you a way to deal with the Five Mountains Sword Sects."

"What way?"

Dongfang Bubai looked at Jiang Chen with some astonishment.

Since she became the Sect Leader of the Sun Moon Divine Cult, it could be said that she had been having a headache over the Five Mountains Sword Sects.

"If I am not mistaken, the reason the Five Mountains Sword Sects have always wanted to deal with your Sun Moon Divine Cult should be for the two supreme martial arts of your Sun Moon Divine Cult, the Star-Sucking Great Art and the Sunflower Manual, right?"

"To be precise, it should be for the Star-Sucking Great Art."

Hearing Jiang Chen's words.

Dongfang Bubai's beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly: "As for the Sunflower Manual, although the outside world has always rumored that it was obtained by our Sun Moon Divine Cult, in fact, they are not very sure, because Sect Leader Ren walked the martial arts world for many years relying not on the Sunflower Manual, but on the Star-Sucking Great Art."

"And within my Sun Moon Divine Cult, only Sect Leader Ren, myself, and Sect Leader Ren's daughter, Ren Ren Yingying, know about the Sunflower Manual. Logically speaking, it is impossible for it to have been leaked."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen glanced at Dongfang Bubai and smiled faintly:

"Since there are rumors that the Sun Moon Divine Cult possesses the Sunflower Manual, then it is worth the Five Mountains Sword Sects making a move."

Others might not know.

But Jiang Chen knew that Yao Yue Buqun had actually been secretly practicing the Evil-Warding Sword Manual.

And the Evil-Warding Sword Manual was a sword technique realized from the fragments of the Sunflower Manual.

Then, after tasting the sweetness of the Evil-Warding Sword Manual, Yao Yue Buqun would inevitably try every possible means to find the Sunflower Manual.

Thinking of this.

Jiang Chen smiled and said: "Since in terms of comprehensive strength, the Sun Moon Divine Cult is not the opponent of the Five Mountains Sword Sects, then you can let the Five Mountains Sword Sects fight among themselves."

"Internal strife?"

Dongfang Bubai was stunned.

"Yes, that is internal strife."

"The Five Mountains Sword Sects are formed by an alliance of five sects: Mount Tai, Mount Chong, Mount Heng, Mount Heng, and Mount Hua."

Jiang Chen said faintly: "Although these five sects look harmonious, I believe that the sect leaders of these five sects all have, to a greater or lesser extent, thoughts of usurping the position of the leader of the Five Mountains Sword Sects."

"Especially Zuo Zuo Lengchan of the Mount Chong Sect and Yao Yue Buqun of the Mount Hua Sect, this must be even more so."

"Yao Yue Buqun?"

Hearing Jiang Chen's words.

Lianxing could not help but ask in confusion: "I heard that this Yao Yue Buqun is a man of integrity his whole life, has quite a bit of cultivation, usually likes to make friends, and as the leader of the Mount Hua Sect, he never puts on the appearance of being superior to others. Therefore, he even has the reputation of 'Gentleman Sword' in the martial arts world."

"Does such a person also compete for the position of the leader of the Five Mountains Sword Sects?"

Especially Yao Yao Yue and Dongfang Bubai also looked at Jiang Chen with confusion.

Regarding Yao Yue Buqun's image as a modest gentleman, it was something witnessed by everyone in the entire Great Ming martial arts world.

"That is just a facade he uses to deceive everyone."

A look of mockery appeared in Jiang Chen's eyes: "In reality, this person is not only vicious and ruthless, smiling with a knife hidden in his heart, but in secret, he is just a hypocrite who kills without blinking and recognizes no kin."

Upon hearing this, the few of them.

Immediately showed expressions of surprise.

Lianxing looked at Jiang Chen with astonishment: "Young Master, how do you know?"

Regarding Jiang Chen's words.

She naturally believed them.

Since Jiang Chen said Yao Yue Buqun was a hypocrite, then the other party was undoubtedly a hypocrite.

It was just that Lianxing did not understand.

The entire Great Ming martial arts world had been deceived by Yao Yue Buqun, yet Jiang Chen, who was in Snow Moon City, could actually know Yao Yue Buqun's true face.

Jiang Chen blinked at Lianxing: "Have you forgotten what I do?"

"Aren't you a divine doctor?"

Dongfang Bubai and Especially Yao Yao Yue looked at Jiang Chen with confusion.

However.

Lianxing seemed to have thought of something.

She suddenly brightened, then looked at the two of them and giggled: "I remember now, Young Master can also tell fortunes."

"Tell fortunes?"

Dongfang Bubai and Especially Yao Yao Yue both widened their eyes and looked at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen ignored their surprised gazes and smiled at Dongfang Bubai: "Miss Dongfang, do you remember I just said I would teach you a way to deal with the Five Mountains Sword Sects?"

"What way?"

"Of course, it is to sow discord between Zuo Zuo Lengchan and Yao Yue Buqun."

Jiang Chen smiled and said: "After you go back, you can arrange for the disciples of the Sun Moon Divine Cult to secretly spread the news that Yao Yue Buqun possesses the supreme sword technique, the Evil-Warding Sword Manual, and has already practiced it to a small degree of success."

Evil-Warding Sword Manual?!

Dongfang Bubai had of course heard of the Evil-Warding Sword Manual.

Even Especially Yao Yao Yue and Lianxing had heard of this sword manual.

"Wasn't the Evil-Warding Sword Manual lost long ago?"

Dongfang Bubai's beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she could not help but speak: "Moreover, doing this should be useless, right? After all, as long as Yao Yue Buqun doesn't admit it, no one can prove that he practiced the Evil-Warding Sword Manual."
