Chapter 79

At this moment,

Su Hang faced Kumārajīva and said calmly:

"Naturally, there is."

"Since so many Jianghu travelers are here today, I might as well say a few more words,"

"So that everyone can hear it clearly."

Speaking of this,

Su Hang picked up the tea brewed by Wang Yuyan, paused, and continued:

"The Yanmen Pass tragedy back then, I suppose you all know about it, right?"

Speaking of the Yanmen Pass tragedy,

Even though many years have passed, the tragic scene is still unforgettable.

That matter back then shocked the entire comprehensive martial arts Jianghu!

"Who doesn't know about the Yanmen Pass tragedy? It was because of this matter that the Great Song and Great Liao became enemies!"

"Exactly! This old man has also heard of this matter; originally, under Xiao Yuanshan's mediation, the Great Song and Great Liao were about to reconcile, but this Xiao Yuanshan died, and both sides blamed each other! In this way, the good situation of thousands of years was buried just like that!"

"In the battle of Yanmen Pass back then, Xiao Yuanshan died in battle, and finally his son was adopted by a Qiao couple under Shaoshi Mountain; this couple named the child Qiao Feng, and this is the current leader of the Great Song Beggar Sect!! This matter has caused quite a stir recently; in the Apricot Forest, Qiao Feng's identity was exposed by the elders of the Beggar Sect in public; it turns out he is the toddler who survived the Yanmen Pass battle!! It's just a pity for Leader Xiao, a hero for a lifetime, who was actually pitted by his own people in the Beggar Sect! It is said that the one who pitted him was a widow?"

"Jianghu rumors say that in the battle of Yanmen Pass back then, both sides suffered heavy casualties, and a generation of experts in the Central Plains Wu Lin all lost their lives here!"

After hearing the crowd's words,

Su Hang nodded and continued:

"In that battle, the experts of the Central Plains all came out to intercept and kill Xiao Yuanshan's family at Yanmen Pass."

"But after so many years, have you ever thought,"

"Why did the experts of the Central Plains all come out, and why did they have to intercept and kill Xiao Yuanshan's family?"

"You must know that at that time, Xiao Yuanshan was just taking his wife and children to visit relatives; why would he attract so many experts to set up an ambush at Yanmen Pass to intercept and kill them?"

As soon as Su Hang said this, the crowd suddenly realized!

As if waking up from a big dream, they reacted one after another!

Lu Xiaofeng pondered for a moment, nodded, and said:

"Since Mr. Su said so, Lu now feels that there are indeed many suspicious points in this matter!"

"It didn't happen early or late, but happened at the critical moment when the Great Song and Great Liao were about to reconcile!"

"And, it was just to deal with Xiao Yuanshan alone, yet the Central Plains Wu Lin sent out all their experts, and even killed his wife and children?"

"I have heard that Xiao Yuanshan was the General Instructor of the Liao Army; he was usually generous and righteous, and deeply loved by the Liao people!"

"How could such a person have enemies? And judging by the degree of the attack, this is clearly a deadly feud!"

Lu Xiaofeng's analysis led the surrounding audience to nod in agreement.

Su Hang nodded and continued:

"Speaking of the Yanmen Pass tragedy,"

"Even though many years have passed, the tragic scene is still unforgettable."

"In that battle, thirty-six experts from the Central Plains besieged Xiao Yuanshan's family,"

"Xiao Yuanshan's wife died on the spot,"

"Seeing his wife and children die before his eyes,"

"Xiao Yuanshan immediately entered the state of a mad demon,"

"With a wave of his knife, he killed all thirty-six experts in an instant,"

"Except for the leader and the last five or six people who luckily escaped, in that battle, a generation of heroes in the Central Plains Wu Lin were all lost, and they still cannot recover to this day, and the Liao Kingdom also lost its General Instructor!"

"And the Great Song and Great Liao countries also started disputes again because of this; the hard-won peaceful situation was buried in one morning."

Speaking of this,

Su Hang paused, took a sip of tea, and continued:

"However, the mastermind behind this was none other than Murong Bo."

"In order to restore the Great Yan, Murong Bo had been laying out plans in secret, attempting to provoke disputes in the Wu Lin, so as to fish in troubled waters."

"After all, thousands of years ago, the Murong clan was like this, rising in the midst of chaos."

"It's just that Murong Bo didn't expect that the general trend of the world back then, because Xiao Yuanshan and others tried their best to mediate, not only did the Great Song and Great Liao not fight, but they were about to welcome reconciliation!"

"If the Great Song and Great Liao really reconciled, then the Murong clan's restoration plan would be indefinitely delayed!"

"This is naturally a scene Murong Bo did not want to see!"

"So after some preparation, Murong Bo spread rumors in the Wu Lin,"

"Saying that the Liao Kingdom was going to send experts to the Central Plains and take away all the Wu Xue secret manuals in the Shaolin Temple!"

"And the group of experts back then was also bewitched by this rumor and worried endlessly!"

"After all, all the world's Wu Gong comes from Shaolin; for so many years, Shaolin has also been called the orthodox source of the world's Wu Xue."

"The books in the Library are as many as ten thousand volumes."

"If they were taken away by the Liao people and everyone practiced them, then the Liao Kingdom's strength would inevitably increase significantly, and the Great Song would inevitably face a disaster!"

"Precisely because of this, experts from all walks of life in the Central Plains gathered together, sent the thirty-six people with the highest Wu Gong among them, and went to Yanmen Pass, where Xiao Yuanshan had to pass, to set an ambush and intercept them!"

"As for what happened later, I suppose you all know!"

"After the battle, both sides suffered heavy casualties, and everyone finally reacted."

"The leader was not an unknown person and had quite a reputation in the Wu Lin; after everyone reacted, they wanted to settle the score with Murong Bo."

"But it was a coincidence that just at this time, Murong Bo suddenly fell ill and died."

When Su Hang said this, the audience suddenly realized.

"Good fellow! What a shocking conspiracy!"

"Truly hateful! This old Murong scoundrel actually wanted to provoke war in the world, just to let the Murong clan benefit from it!"

"Hehe! Everyone says the Murong clan is sinister and vicious; at first I didn't believe it, but today, after Mr. Su said so, I have to believe it!"

"Exactly! Fortunately, the Great Song and Great Liao held back back then, otherwise they would have fallen into the old Murong scoundrel's trap!"

"This old scoundrel! He deceived a group of big shots in the Central Plains Wu Lin, and in the end, he was afraid he couldn't finish the job, so he faked his death!"

"So that's it! Why do I suddenly feel that Murong Fu's death is just retribution?".
