Chapter 1103 The Enemy of Daomen
If Yihu is in a hurry to find him, how could his phone be turned off?
Yan Ning frowned, with a faint ominous premonition. Yan Ning called Su Yan, Huang Long and Zhang Rui one by one and found that they were all turned off. Only then did Yan Ning realize that something was wrong, and something must have happened in the tea shop!
Looking through the phone records, Tang Wenlin and Duan Yi also called Yan Ning. Yan Ning thought for a while and was about to call Tang Wenlin back first.
The Tang Sect is the only force that Yan Ning can trust now. Mr. Tang Gu had long said that he would stand on Yan Ning and the others' side, so compared with Duan Yi, Yan Ning believed in the Tang Sect more.
Sure enough, Tang Wenlin's phone call was answered almost instantly, and Tang Wenlin's nervous voice came: "Brother Yan Ning, where are you now, aren't you injured, right?"
If Yan Ning hadn't known about Tang Wenlin's character, he would have probably made Yan Ning mistakenly think that he was a gay man.
"I'm fine, I don't know where I am now... Brother Tang, ask you something, is there something wrong with our tea shop?" Yan Ning said.
"Oh!" Tang Wenlin sighed, "What did you do in Longhu Mountain? Last night, Longhu Mountain issued a Taoist sect's pursuit order overnight, trying to capture you and Sister Xiaoya back to Longhu Mountain. Wolong Pavilion responded the fastest and immediately organized a Taoist coalition to come to your Jianzhou Tea House to ask for people. It is said that Yihu and the others didn't know what happened, so they fought with the disciples of Wolong Pavilion. In the end, Yihu was outnumbered and the entire tea house was subdued by the Taoist coalition. According to my understanding, Maoshan disciples are now under house arrest by the Taoist coalition in Jianzhou Tea House, cutting off all contact with the outside world."
"hateful!"
After hearing this, Yan Ning couldn't help but curse in a low voice.
Zhuge Haoyue had already had a barrier for Yan Ning because of Zhuge Ruolan's death. Now Yan Ning accidentally angered Longhu Mountain by mistake, and Wolong Pavilion immediately took advantage of the situation and conquered the tea shop!
Yan Ning expected that after Zhuang Xiaoya's identity was exposed, the Taoist sect would be unfavorable to the tea house, but he did not expect that the Taoist sect's hatred for them would reach this level and he needed to control the tea house overnight.
"Brother Yan Ning, I heard that Sister Xiaoya's identity has been exposed, and you joined forces with Guan Zixuan to steal the body of the demon couple and kill Murong Yuxie, the president of Yunyan Society. Is this true or false?" Tang Wenlin asked.
Yan Ning felt a mess in his mind: "I don't know either. My mind is like a mud, messy, and I don't know what happened at all. I entered the Spirit Watching Platform. When I came out, I saw Zhang Daofeng and the others besieging Xiaoya. Murong Yuxie was already dead at that time! As for the incident of their saying that I joined forces with Guan Zixuan, I was even more unaware of it..."
Tang Wenlin also felt that things became complicated: "Now they are looking for you all over the world. No matter what, you must hide your identity now. I know that Brother Yan Ning, you are extremely powerful, but you will definitely not be the opponent of the entire Taoist sect... Otherwise, come to my Tang sect to avoid it?"
The Tang Sect is a good choice. At least Yan Ning can trust them, but Yan Ning doesn’t want to bring trouble to the Tang Sect, so he refused: “No, I have my own place to go. Brother Tang, you have to help you clear the matters of the tea shop, so you don’t let them hurt my Maoshan disciples. After I understand the truth of the matter, I will take the initiative to find Zhang Daofeng and explain the matter clearly.”
Tang Wenlin would not force Yan Ning to be careful in everything and call him if he needs help.
After Yan Ning hung up the phone, he suddenly heard a faint sob from the Land Temple. Yan Ning was startled and ran back to the Land Temple. He saw Zhuang Xiaoya lying among the withered straw piles, crying softly.
"Xiaoya, you are awake...why are you crying?" Yan Ning hurried over and helped Zhuang Xiaoya up.
Zhuang Xiaoya said with red eyes: "I heard what you and Tang Wenlin said. This is not a misunderstanding, I did make a mistake!"
Yan Ning was confused: "What's going on?"
"I'm worried that you wouldn't want to help me find my parents' body, so the day before you entered the Spirit Watching Platform, I was bewitched by Shuli and quietly asked you to take him into the Spirit Watching Platform. I don't know what method he used to steal my parents' body..."
Yan Ning said in shock: "It turns out that the person who stole your parents' body was Shuli."
"Yes... After you entered the Spirit Watching Platform, Murong Yuxie appeared. She told me about my identity and instigated the people from Longhu Mountain to kill me. I was unwilling to surrender, so I swear to resist to the death. As a result, Zhang Quan took the opportunity to make trouble, which intensified the conflict between me and them. Murong Yuxie was not killed by me, but by Zhang Quan!" Zhuang Xiaoya said.
After hearing this, Yan Ning couldn't speak for a long time. He underestimated Guan Zixuan and thought that this guy would not come out to cause trouble if he was injured. Now it seems that even the injured Guan Zixuan could still play with them in the midst of applause.
Zhuang Xiaoya cried and said, "It's all my fault. I shouldn't believe Shuli's bewitching, which will make you chased by the entire Taoist sect now..."
Yan Ning sighed.
Can he blame Zhuang Xiaoya?
No, because Zhuang Xiaoya and her parents were victims from beginning to end, but some old guys in the Taoist sect were stubborn and resented about what happened a hundred years ago, so they continued to intensify conflicts and turn things into their current state. There is no reason why victims must pay a price to save the status quo.
Moreover, Yan Ning himself has a responsibility. As Zhuang Xiaoya's fiancé, it was his responsibility to save his father-in-law and mother-in-law. Not only did he not take action, but he also refused to let Zhuang Xiaoya take action because of all kinds of concerns. Zhuang Xiaoya asked Shuli to help, which was also a helpless move, and it was a choice at the end of his life.
Zhuang Xiaoya suddenly stood up and said to Yan Ning: "I can't drag you down. I will surrender myself to Longhu Mountain and make it clear! Since they hate the witches, I will die in their hands as they wish! If this can make the Taoist sect united, I will die without regrets!"
Yan Ning quickly grabbed Zhuang Xiaoya: "Don't be stupid, your sacrifice cannot be exchanged for the peace of the Taoist sect. Mutual suspicion and power disputes are human nature. Even immortals are fighting against the demons! Therefore, a person's death cannot make them change anything. They will only feel that they have accomplished a big thing, and there is an inexplicable sense of pride in their hearts."
"But...but, you are extremely important to the Taoist sect, and I can't let you be the target of public criticism." Zhuang Xiaoya hesitated.
Yan Ning shook his head: "I have been thinking about it. Under what circumstances do people unite most? It is not a good monarch or a good leader, but when they have an enemy they hate together, they are the most united. So now we are the target of public criticism, which is not entirely a disadvantage. At least you see, the Dao Sect coalition was organized in one night. If possible, let us both become the enemies that the entire Dao Sect hates together. At least this will allow them to unite and not let Guan Zixuan take advantage of the loopholes!"
