Chapter 124: Destroy Tianji Tower and Go to Huashan
Chapter 124: Destroy Tianji Tower and Go to Huashan
"Master Qiao, please come in. I am sorry for not welcoming you, my distinguished guest."
A middle-aged man ran out quickly, and he was actually a master at the peak of the Grandmaster level.
The other person's face was full of smiles, but his movements were very cautious.
Although Shi Zhixuan and Dongfang Bai didn't understand why Qiao Feng came to Tianji Tower, they had no choice but to follow Qiao Feng inside.
"Give me all the information related to Xuanwu."
Qiao Feng said.
As they entered the Tianji Tower, the news spread throughout Chang'an at an extremely fast speed.
The Huashan Sword Contest had just ended, and the masters of various forces were temporarily staying in Chang'an, waiting for the subsequent development of Xuanwu. At this moment, they all set their sights on the Tianji Tower branch in Chang'an.
The middle-aged man wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "To be honest with you, Mr. Qiao, we don't have any information about Xuanwu, so we can't make a deal."
Qiao Feng was not surprised. He took a sip of tea and looked outside.
There were almost no people in the Tianji Building today, but as they entered, there were quite a few people outside the door watching the fun.
"Does Mr. Qiao need any other information?"
Qiao Feng asked, "What is your name?"
"Master Qiao, you can just call me Li Qian."
Qiao Feng said, "Oh, Captain Li, right? Since Tianji Tower is one of the forces of the Azure Dragon Society, I thought you would choose to close down after being exposed today. However, it seems that you have great self-confidence."
Li Qian quickly lowered his head and said, "We are just businessmen. Besides, I didn't know about the Qinglong Society before."
"It doesn't matter, you already know that."
Qiao Feng was chatting with Li Qian in a casual manner when the sound of an orderly army marching could be heard outside the door.
Li Qian was startled and hurried out to see, only to discover that a military general had led a large group of soldiers to surround the Tianji Tower.
"We have received a report that there are traitors hiding in the Tianji Tower. Follow my orders and search with all your might. Don't let any place go unnoticed."
At the command, the masters of Tianji Tower were captured before they had time to resist. They did not dare to resist in the first place, and if they resisted in front of the Tang Dynasty army, they would most likely be killed on the spot.
They might be able to defeat a few dozen soldiers, but if they angered the army, they could be drowned by human wave tactics.
Not to mention that the leader is Luo Cheng, a military general at the peak of the Grandmaster level.
Li Qian hurried forward and said, "General Luo, where did the rebels come from in our Tianji Tower? They are all good people who abide by the law."
"We will judge for ourselves. Are you going to stop us from arresting the rebels?"
"I dare not, I dare not." Li Qian said quickly.
At this time, Qiao Feng walked out slowly, "Captain Li, don't worry, just watch from here. If there are no traitors, I will definitely clear your name."
Although the words seemed light-hearted, Li Qian always felt that Qiao Feng meant for him to stay here, not run around, and not even think about moving again.
Li Qian's clothes were soaked with cold sweat on his back.
He had originally planned to close down the Tianji Tower. After all, they knew the news on Mount Huashan earlier than anyone else.
But I didn't expect that the order from above was to operate as normal.
This stubbornness caused problems.
I just hope they are here to demonstrate, and when they leave, I will definitely close the door and stay away from Chang'an.
"Report to the general, the Tianji Tower is indeed harboring traitors from the imperial court."
At this moment, four or five soldiers escorted out a member of Tianji Tower, who was wearing the uniform of Tianji Tower.
"General Luo, are you mistaken? He has been in our Tianji Tower for many years, and many people in Chang'an know him."
The man also cried out: "You arrested the wrong person, General Luo, I am not a traitor."
Unexpectedly, Luo Cheng's expression turned cold, and he waved his hand, "Seal off the Tianji Tower, arrest all the people involved in the case, and put them in the Tianlao Prison to await interrogation."
Wow…
The Tianji Tower was quickly occupied, and even Li Qian was captured after his internal energy was sealed.
Then, the whole Chang'an saw that the Tianji Tower was completely sealed off, and all members of the Tianji Tower were chained and taken away. They cried out for injustice all the way, and no one dared to question it.
What they didn't know was that at the same time, orders had already been sent out within the Tang Dynasty.
Before nightfall the next day, all Tianji Towers in the Tang Dynasty were sealed off, and all Tianji Tower personnel were either killed or arrested.
And Qiao Feng also left Tianji Tower with a few people.
"Brother Qiao, what you discussed with King Qin was to eradicate Tianji Tower?"
Returning to the courtyard, Huang Rong couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
Qiao Feng shook his head, "No."
"Then this..."
Qiao Feng said, "It may be a coincidence. We are discussing another matter, which is much more important than the Tianji Tower."
Only he knew that although eradicating the Tianji Tower seemed like a big move, it was actually just to disgust the Qinglong Society.
Since the Qinglong Society has more than 360 branches throughout the world, the Tianji Tower can only be said to be a supplementary intelligence organization.
Something more important than Tianji Tower?
Shi Zhixuan and Dongfang Bai both fell into deep thought.
But before they could think for long, they were sent away by Qiao Feng, and each of them recovered their strength.
And Qiao Feng himself also entered the state of practicing martial arts.
He had a sense of urgency. With the emergence of spiritual beasts from all four directions, his own strength was no longer sufficient to guarantee absolute safety.
The next day, not long after daybreak, Qiao Feng finished his martial arts training and arrived at the courtyard.
"what happened?"
He asked, looking towards the messy front yard.
It stands to reason that the disciples of the Ming sect would not ignore the chaos in the sect's rules. Something must have happened.
"Master, it's Master Zhang who has come to Chang'an."
Xiao Zhao ran up to Qiao Feng and explained quickly.
"Zhang Sanfeng?" Qiao Feng asked in surprise.
Xiao Zhao nodded: "Yes, it's Zhang Zhenren from Wudang."
Qiao Feng frowned, "Why would Master Zhang suddenly come to Chang'an? According to his route, he set out at least yesterday and did not stop along the way. Could it be that he was here for the matter of Xuanwu... Let's go out and take a look."
Zhang Sanfeng did come and caused a great disturbance in Chang'an.
He went to where Zhang Wuji and others were staying.
Just as Qiao Feng was about to go out, he suddenly stopped.
"Leader?" Xiao Zhao was surprised.
"No need to go, he's here."
Qiao Feng looked towards the gate.
All the disciples of the Ming Cult fell silent, looking at the old man outside the door with white hair and beard but a radiant face.
"Master Zhang, long time no see." Qiao Feng bowed.
Zhang Sanfeng laughed, "My dear Qiao, how are you? I didn't mean to disturb you, but I want to go to Huashan Mountain. After thinking about it, I think you are the best guide. Do you have time to go with me?"
Qiao Feng raised his eyebrows, "I can go to Huashan anytime, but how can Master Zhang be so well-informed? Is he going up the mountain just for Xuanwu?"
Zhang Sanfeng said, "We will discuss this in detail later. However, there is no need to be so distant, Qiao. It is not comfortable to call me Master Zhang all the time. You can just call me Old Zhang."
Qiao Feng said, "Haha, that's true. Then I'll take the liberty of calling out to you, Brother Zhang. Please come in."
Zhang Sanfeng waved his hand, "My friend, I'm afraid we can't delay any longer."
Qiao Feng was surprised, "So urgent?"
Zhang Sanfeng nodded.
Qiao Feng looked around and said, "Don't leave Chang'an. Rest here. I'm going to Mount Hua."
After saying that, he bowed to Zhang Sanfeng and said, "Brother Zhang, let's set off now."
After the two men finished talking, they immediately rode two fast horses towards Mount Hua.
Halfway out of Chang'an, Qiao Feng asked, "Brother Zhang, how did you know about the appearance of the Black Tortoise of Mount Hua? The fastest information would probably only reach Wudang now, right?"
Zhang Sanfeng looked solemn, "Xuanwu appeared in the world, and the heaven and earth were slightly disturbed. I also felt it in my heart. I am afraid that those who are at the same level as me are all like this."
