Confrontation
Editor: Kurisu
Shenxiao had Wang Wenqing as its first patriarch, but Lin Lingsu and Zhang Jixian also made remarkable contributions to the establishment of the sect. Lin provided the sect with the "Jade Book of Five Thunders", while Zhang Jixian was the thirtieth generation Celestial Master himself. The fact that he would humble himself to help Wang with setting up a sect suggested there might be an element of investment in it.
As a result, the teachings of Shenxiao were diverse, with three separate lines of inheritance descending from Wang, Lin, and Zhang respectively.
By the time Shi Liangsheng came along, the thunder techniques had gone through such serious decline that only scattering bits were left of the legacy. Shi had no choice but to go to Longhu Mountain for help and learned the talisman skills there. It was only after that that he was qualified to set up a sect of his own. Another three hundred years had passed since then and this courtyard was what was left of the sect.
