Chapter 352: Bringing things back to order(1/2)
With his own strength, he broke into the Hongyu Peak stronghold guarded by seven foundation-building monks, successfully rescued Lin Wan'er, who was detained and restricted her personal freedom, and killed four foundation-building monks, forcing the remaining three foundation-building monks to surrender.
Zhou Chun's achievements are also very explosive when looking at the world of immortal cultivation.
In the realm of foundation building, few people can be as fierce as him.
What's even more frightening is that this is not all his strength!
At this moment, looking at Fu Changqing and the other three who came obediently to Zhou Chun to surrender and plead guilty, and Lin Wan'er, who had regained some consciousness under the effect of the "Ice Dew Pill" on Zhou Chun's back, she was also shocked in her heart.
Although she had heard of some of Zhou Chun's achievements before, she had never seen Zhou Chun fight with others.
At this time, after being carried by Zhou Chun and participating in the whole battle, and seeing Zhou Chun's powerful strength with her own eyes, she knew how strong Zhou Chun really was.
Only then did we understand why Zhou Mingde only sent Zhou Chun to calm down the situation even though he knew that the situation in Yangguo was critical.
"Fu and others misunderstood the slander and almost killed fellow Taoist Lin. I would like to ask fellow Taoist Lin and this fellow to forgive me and give me a chance to make amends!"
Opposite Zhou Chun, Fu Changqing and the other three appeared. They first glanced at Lin Waner, who had a beautiful face on Zhou Chun's back, and then saluted respectfully, expressing their willingness to surrender.
They can be considered a conditional surrender.
However, Zhou Chun was not eager to accept the surrender of the three men. Instead, he asked softly to Lin Wan'er on his back: "Elder Lin, what do you think? Do you want to accept their surrender?"
His attitude not only made the other three Fu Changqing panic, but it was also beyond the expectations of Lin Wan'er who was behind him.
After all, regardless of status or cultivation strength, Zhou Chun was higher than her, Lin Wan'er.
But the attitude Zhou Chun is showing now is obviously focused on her and he respects her very much.
This attitude indeed made her extremely heartwarming and touching.
At that moment, she looked at Zhou Chun's handsome and fair face, and had the urge to kiss him.
However, as soon as this impulse emerged, she instantly realized that the effect of [Liolnv Pill] was beginning to counterattack, and she was afraid that she would not be able to hold on for long.
So while she was still conscious, she hurriedly said in Zhou Chun's ear: "They can accept their surrender, but Fu Changqing must be detained first!"
Although the voice was low, Fu Changqing and the other three people who had been paying attention to this side could hear it clearly.
For a moment, the expression of Fu Changqing, the old man in yellow, changed slightly.
Zhou Chun quickly looked at the three of them and said, "You have also heard what Elder Lin said. I think you won't object, right?"
After hearing this, before Fu Changqing could say anything, the old man in green agreed: "Yes, yes, yes, Yang completely agrees with Fellow Daoist Lin's arrangement."
"I don't have any objections."
The white-haired old woman followed closely and said.
This answer from the two people fully demonstrated the meaning of the word "casual cultivator".
Under the current circumstances, the two of them had no intention of advancing or retreating together with the old man in yellow, Fu Changqing, and just wanted to protect themselves.
Seeing the two of them acting like this, although Fu Changqing was angry at their behavior, he also knew that there was no way he could refuse Lin Wan'er's decision.
At the moment, all he could do was sigh and say: "It doesn't matter, Fu is willing to obey fellow Taoist disciples!"
After accepting the surrender of the three men in this way, Zhou Chun ordered the old man in green and the old woman with white hair to stabilize people's hearts and secure the stronghold.
Then he escorted Fu Changqing to his residence.
As soon as they arrived at Fu Changqing's residence, Lin Wan'er, who was sitting on Zhou Chun's back, fell into consciousness again. She suddenly hugged his neck with both hands and started kissing and nibbling him.
Seeing this situation, Zhou Chun quickly put her down and regained his balance.
Then he looked at Fu Changqing with an ugly expression and asked, "Did you place the seal on Elder Lin's body?"
"It was indeed done by Mr. Fu, at that time..."
Fu Changqing's complexion changed slightly, and he was about to defend himself and tell how he had no choice.
But he was immediately interrupted by Zhou Chun, "You don't need to explain so much to me, just tell me how long it will take to unlock this seal?"
"A quarter of an hour is enough!"
Fu Changqing's eyes moved slightly, as if he understood what Zhou Chun meant, and he hurriedly gave an answer.
"Then you can unlock the seal for Elder Lin now!"
Zhou Chun said, taking out another "Ice Dew Pill" from the storage bag and feeding it to Lin Wan'er.
In fact, with Lin Wan'er's current cultivation base being sealed, continuous consumption of elixirs such as "Ice Dew Pill" will cause considerable damage to the body's vitality.
But it was the lesser of two powers. In order to suppress the restless desire in her body and save her face, Zhou Chun could only do this.
A quarter of an hour passed quickly.
With Ren Changqing's full efforts, the seal in Lin Wan'er's body was finally successfully lifted and her magic power was restored.
And as her magic power recovered, her consciousness quickly recovered a lot, and she was able to use her magic power to suppress the power of the [Liol Nv Pill] in her body.
Seeing this, Zhou Chun immediately said: "Elder Lin, please meditate here to eliminate poison first, and Zhou will go outside to protect you."
After saying that, he took Ren Changqing outside.
After the two of them arrived outside, Zhou Chun's face turned cold. He stared at Fu Changqing coldly and said, "Tell me, who gave you the courage to treat Elder Lin like this!"
Lin Wan'er had said before when she came to the Zhou family that because Lin Hongyu had never returned, people like Fu Changqing were tempted to seize power under the temptation of external forces.
Now that the seizure of power has happened, Zhou Chun must of course interrogate and find out the truth of the matter.
However, facing Zhou Chun's interrogation, Fu Changqing did not answer directly, but replied in a low voice: "Fellow Daoist Mingjian, although Fu participated in the seizure of power and took action to seal Daoist Lin, Tian Fengyi harmed Daoist Lin.
Fu Xou didn’t know about this matter in advance, otherwise he would have been stopped!”
"Don't give Zhou a sloppy look, Zhou didn't ask you this!"
Zhou Chun's eyes turned cold and he said in a cold tone: "I'll give you another chance to tell who is the instigator behind this!"
These words containing murderous intent made Fu Changqing's eyelids jump.
In the end, he could not withstand the pressure, and sighed in a low voice: "It's Huoyang Sanren! It was Tian Fengyi who colluded with him, coerced and lured us, and we were forced to do something that was sorry to Senior Lin and Fellow Daoist Lin.
matter!"
"What kind of cultivation level does Huoyang Sanren have?"
Zhou Chun's eyes flashed and he asked again.
Now that Fu Changqing had confessed, he no longer had anything to hide, and immediately answered: "Huoyang Sanren is also a late-stage cultivator of Zifu. He once fought against Senior Lin, and seemed to be slightly inferior to Senior Lin. Therefore, for Lin
Senior has always been a little unconvinced!"
"Is that so? Then tell me clearly how you hooked up with Huoyang Sanren and how you plotted against Elder Lin!"
Zhou Chun nodded thoughtfully and asked Fu Changqing to explain everything.
From Fu Changqing's own perspective, the reason why he, the old man in green, and the white-haired old woman seized power was mostly out of helplessness.
Because Lin Hongyu had not appeared for several years, even though Lin Wan'er swore that she was practicing alchemy in seclusion in the Great Zhou Kingdom, no one could prove it.
And even if the matter is true, everyone knows that it is difficult to see results within ten or eight years of forming pills, and the success rate is very low, and there is even a high risk of death if it fails.
Under such circumstances, it is undoubtedly difficult for people to accept that Fu Changqing and others have still obeyed Lin Wan'er's orders honestly over the years and handed over a large portion of the stronghold's income to Lin Wan'er.
After all, Fu Changqing and others are actually quite old. In ten or eight years, they will be very close to the end of their lifespan.
Another situation is that after learning that Lin Hongyu had not been at the Hongyu Peak stronghold for a long time, the Huoyang Sanren who had always been grudged against their defeat at the hands of Lin Hongyu also wanted to take advantage of it.
Although the Huoyang Sanren himself did not dare to go down personally because he was worried that Lin Hongyu would really return after forming a pill successfully, he hooked up with Tian Fengyi and other daring people, and threatened and forced Changqing and the others from within.
If Fu Changqing and others do not cooperate in seizing power and taking down Lin Waner, their lives will be in danger.
Due to these internal and external pressures, coupled with the inducement of some benefits promised by Huoyang Sanren, Fu Changqing and others could only launch a power-seizing operation together and imprisoned Lin Wan'er's seal cultivation.
But compared to radicals such as Tian Fengyi, elderly monks such as Fu Changqing are relatively stable.
They didn't really dare to send Lin Wan'er to Huoyang Sanren, they just detained her first and wanted to see the situation before making a decision.
At the same time, after seizing power, they also saw the scruples of Huoyang Sanren, and were no longer afraid that Huoyang Sanren would come to occupy Hongyu Peak in person.
However, Fu Changqing and the others did not expect that Tian Fengyi would be so bold and reckless, taking the opportunity to guard Lin Wan'er and kill Lin Wan'er.
I didn't expect that there was such a powerful force as the Zhou family behind Lin Wan'er.
Now because of Zhou Chun's appearance, their attempt to seize power has become a joke, and several radicals were all killed on the spot.
The development of this matter has made Fu Changqing filled with emotions and regrets.
After Zhou Chun understood what happened, he also had an understanding of the situation at Hongyu Peak, and he finally knew what he wanted to do in the future.
After thinking for a while, he said to Changqing: "You will stay here from now on and you are not allowed to leave even a step, otherwise don't blame Zhou for being ruthless!"
After saying that, he asked Golden Winged Tiger to guard Fu Changqing in the courtyard, while he entered the room to check on Lin Wan'er's condition.
After a period of meditation, Lin Wan'er had suppressed most of the restless desire in her body. After Zhou Chun came in, she was temporarily able to stand up and have a conversation with him.
After she stood up, she first tidied up her somewhat scattered clothes, then bowed to Zhou Chun and said, "Thanks to the clan leader tonight. If the clan leader hadn't arrived in time, I would have been unable to escape the murderous hands of the thief.
This kindness and love will never be forgotten by me!"
Seeing this, Zhou Chun hurriedly stepped forward and put his arm around her wrist, helped her up and said, "Elder Lin is serious. Elder Lin went to a foreign country to expand the territory for my Zhou family, and made great contributions to our Zhou family. As the clan leader, how can you do that?"
Seeing an elder in trouble and refusing to save him!"
