Chapter 248 Blood debt must be paid with blood
With a spurt of blood, the old man died on the spot!
At this point, all those who attacked the Quanzhen Sect's Vajra Sect and the Xiangxi Zombie Sect have been killed!
The biggest crisis in the history of the Quanzhen Sect has finally been resolved!
Duan Zhengchun glanced coldly at the old man's corpse and strode over to Qiu Chuji.
"Master, are you alright?!"
Duan Zhengchun glanced at Qiu Chuji's shoulder and asked with concern.
"I'm fine. I'm alright with Xiao Shiqi taking care of me. You should go check on your Uncle Liu and Zhiyuan! They're the ones who are most seriously injured!"
Qiu Chuji shook his head and said anxiously.
"Take good care of Master!"
Duan Zhengchun nodded, gave a few words of advice to Xiao Shiqi, who was also covered in blood, and then immediately turned around to look for Lin Zhiyuan.
Besides Qiu Chuji, Liu Chuxuan and the others were also injured, and indeed seriously so, and were being supported by their disciples.
However, Duan Zhengchun was only concerned about Lin Zhiyuan at this moment. After ordering the other disciples to help the Five Masters of Quanzhen away, he quickly began to search for Lin Zhiyuan in the surrounding area.
"Duan Lang, Junior Brother Lin is here!"
Just then, Lu Wushuang's voice suddenly came.
Duan Zhengchun turned around and glanced over, then rushed over and found Lin Zhiyuan lying in a pool of blood, his face ashen, almost a blood-soaked figure, his body covered with deep, bone-revealing wounds!
"Quick! Help him back!"
Duan Zhengchun's heart tightened, and he immediately ordered the Qingyi Guards to take Lin Zhiyuan back to his residence. Then he personally began to treat Lin Zhiyuan's injuries.
"Senior brother, don't worry about me..."
"Master is also injured, protect Master first..."
As Lin Zhiyuan lay dying, he murmured something to himself, his face deathly pale.
"Shut up!"
Duan Zhengchun said coldly, and immediately increased his strength, continuously pouring innate true energy into Lin Zhiyuan's body.
He has already sent Lu Wushuang a healing medicine to Qiu Chuji and confirmed that Qiu Chuji is alright. Now he must devote all his efforts to snatching Lin Zhiyuan back from the brink of death!
Under the cover of night, Duan Zhengchun sat on the stone steps outside Lin Zhiyuan's residence, holding a gourd of wine in his hand, and took a few sips.
He was exhausted; his right hand, which was holding the gourd, trembled slightly, and his lips even turned pale.
He almost exhausted his strength to save Lin Zhiyuan, but fortunately, he managed to snatch the man back from the jaws of death.
By this time, the Taoist temple, inside and out, had been completely transformed by the Qingyi Guards' sweeping, and there was no longer a single corpse or blood to be seen. However, this sudden calamity seemed to linger in the hearts of every Quanzhen Sect disciple.
Almost everyone in the Quanzhen Sect who could be injured has been injured, and now the guards have been replaced by the Green-Clad Guards led by Lu Wushuang.
Fortunately, Duan Zhengchun had the foresight to send a message by carrier pigeon in advance to mobilize a large number of Qingyi Guards for support; otherwise, by the time he arrived, it might have been too late.
"Senior brother, Master wants to see you."
Just then, Little Seventeen, whose arm was wrapped in gauze, slowly approached, clasped his hands in a salute to Duan Zhengchun, and said slowly, his eyes filled with gratitude.
Duan Zhengchun tilted his head back, took a sip of wine, and slowly stood up.
But as soon as he stood up, he felt dizzy and almost collapsed!
"Brother!"
Xiao Shiqi was startled and exclaimed in surprise, quickly stepping forward to support him.
"I am fine."
How is your injury?
Duan Zhengchun waved his hand with a wry smile, took a deep breath, adjusted his breathing, glanced at Xiao Shiqi, and asked softly.
"It's just a minor injury, thank you for your concern, senior brother."
Xiao Shiqi glanced at his arm, forced a smile, and tried to reassure Duan Zhengchun.
Duan Zhengchun nodded, said nothing more, and turned to walk straight toward Qiu Chuji's residence.
When Duan Zhengchun pushed open the door and entered Qiu Chuji's residence, he found that Liu Chuxuan and others were also present. Qiu Chuji was sitting weakly on a futon.
"Master."
Duan Zhengchun glanced at Liu Chuxuan and the others, then went straight to Qiu Chuji. After bowing respectfully, he stepped forward to examine Qiu Chuji's injuries before Qiu Chuji could speak.
"I'm fine. The medicine you brought was timely, and my condition has stabilized."
Qiu Chuji smiled, his voice weak, his eyes full of relief.
After carefully checking everything, Duan Zhengchun was finally relieved. He stood up and clasped his hands in greeting to Liu Chuxuan and the others.
He was giving Qiu Chuji face.
When Lu Wushuang delivered the medicine earlier, she also sent some to Liu Chuxuan and the others. It seemed that they had all suffered some external injuries, but their lives were not in danger.
"Zhiping, the Quanzhen Sect was able to successfully resolve this calamity entirely thanks to you. Your senior master thanks you."
Liu Chuxuan said something meaningful, then struggled to his feet and bowed to Duan Zhengchun in front of everyone, clasping his hands in a fist salute.
"Yes, if Zhiping hadn't arrived in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable!"
"With the reinforcements from the Green-Clad Guards, it would be difficult to stop the enemy's sneak attack without those skilled young women!"
Immediately afterwards, Wang Chuyi, Hao Datong, and others also stood up to thank Duan Zhengchun, their faces filled with gratitude.
They never imagined that when the Quanzhen Sect was facing a life-or-death crisis, it would be this disciple, whom they had once expelled from the sect, who would step forward to resolve the situation.
“You are all elders, and I, Zhiping, am not worthy of such a grand gesture.”
"No matter when or where, I am always my master's disciple, regardless of whether I am still a disciple of the Quanzhen School."
"My master is in trouble, I can't just ignore it."
Duan Zhengchun returned the salute to the crowd with clasped hands and said firmly.
Upon hearing this, Qiu Chuji couldn't help but show a look of relief, and asked softly, "How is Zhiyuan?"
Duan Zhengchun turned to look at Qiu Chuji and said slowly, "He's alright now, but his injuries were severe, and it will probably take several months for him to recover."
Upon hearing Duan Zhengchun's reply, Qiu Chuji frowned slightly and couldn't help but sigh.
This crisis was averted not only because of Duan Zhengchun's timely arrival, but also because of the contributions of his disciple Lin Zhiyuan. If Lin Zhiyuan hadn't fought so hard to protect them, they probably wouldn't have been able to hold out until Duan Zhengchun arrived.
"I never imagined that after more than ten years, the Western Regions Tantric sect would dare to send people to infiltrate the Central Plains and attack my Quanzhen Sect! I also never expected that they would send so many people this time, as if they were determined to succeed!"
"This feud is now firmly established. One day, we will definitely settle this score with them!"
Liu Chuxuan and the others all darkened their faces and spoke with righteous indignation.
Duan Zhengchun narrowed his eyes, a cold killing intent flashing in them.
The Vajra Sect's actions have crossed his bottom line!
There's also the Xiangxi Zombie Gate!
He will never let this go!
...
Two days later.
"Are you really going? Isn't that a bit too hasty?!"
"Your skills have only just recovered!"
At the mountain gate, Qiu Chuji looked at Duan Zhengchun, who was already fully prepared and ready to depart, with a solemn expression and a face full of concern.
"This matter should be handled sooner rather than later; if it is delayed, the Vajra Sect may have some countermeasures."
"Don't worry, I'm fine now."
Duan Zhengchun smiled and said with certainty.
He has decided to immediately travel to the Western Regions to settle all old and new grudges with the Vajra Sect.
Back in the Western Regions, he left a warning in front of the Vajra Sect's mountain gate: if anyone from the Vajra Sect dared to set foot on Zhongnan Mountain again, he would surely massacre the Vajra Sect!
It's time to put an end to all this!
"Since you've made your decision, I won't say anything more. But no matter what, you must come back alive, and you mustn't act rashly!"
"If we encounter danger, saving our lives is the most important thing. A gentleman takes revenge even after ten years!"
Qiu Chuji hesitated for a moment, then gave serious instructions.
Duan Zhengchun smiled and nodded, then respectfully clasped his hands in a salute to Qiu Chuji, Liu Chuxuan, and the others.
"Zhiping, take care!"
"Safe travels!"
Liu Chuxuan and the others immediately returned the greeting and offered sincere advice.
Duan Zhengchun said nothing more and turned to walk down the endless stone steps.
He was alone on his journey to the Western Regions.
For safety reasons, he had already sent Xiaolongnu back to Qixia Mountain with Ying'er, Lu Wushuang, and the others.
Originally, Lu Wushuang and the others insisted on following him, but he refused, as he did not want to put them in danger again.
At the same time, he has ordered the Qingyi Guard to gather a large number of men and rush to western Hunan to wipe out the Zombie Clan!
Blood debts must be repaid with blood!
