Chapter 70 Be straightforward. Use softness to conquer strength.
Liu Shushuang came from the Northern Land, with her body covered in twists and turns, and her three thousand miles of wind and dust were all in her sleeves.
She came to the Central Continent, preparing to take a short rest before heading to Cangya Mountain.
She remembered that Yan Xing had sent a message saying that he was coming back, so she had asked Feng Lailai, who was at the Lanyuan School, to serve four kinds of red wine and take it away with him.
It was late at night when she went out. She was looking for an inn to stay in for the night when she realized he was being followed.
She walked towards a secluded path, winding her way back into the circle. That line of sight had always been there, following her like a shadow.
The other party was very strong.
It was a hundred times stronger than every assassination attempt he had encountered when he sent Duan Chong Xuan back to the Northern Land.
Her instinct for danger was magnified to the extreme.
However, Liu Shushuang’s expression did not change.
She had gone a long way to a deserted alley, surrounded by overgrown grass and no one to be seen.
The quieter the place was, the more one could sense the other’s existence.
Liu Shushuang did not use her sword, neither did she use her blade.
What she practiced was a set of fist techniques.
There were no ever-changing sword moves, only violent Quintessential Essence Fist Intent.
Straight back and forth.
With a strong hand.
She landed on the rooftop and threw out a punch. The wind created by the punch tore through the air, and thunder seemed to have fallen from the sky.
However, this thunderclap could not be heard by ordinary people, because it would fall into the cultivator’s sea of consciousness.
Unreservedly and without hesitation, she used her strongest technique as soon as she made a move.
Because she knew that the difference between the strong and the weak was like clouds and mud, and this was the only way to survive.
However, her fist still missed.
Her heart sank. The worst had happened.
Before she could make a move, a white figure had already descended from the sky.
The Sword Saint laughed heartily. “You’ve improved quite a bit, haven’t you?”
Speaking of going to the Midland, the first thing that came to Yin Biyue’s mind was that his master wanted to see a Mr.
However, the first person they saw was not Mister, but Second Senior Sister.
It was just like when he met Yan Xing in Spring Restaurant. He wasn’t sure if it was a coincidence or if his master had intentionally done it.
“Master?!”
This was the first time Yin Biyue saw her senior sister with her eyes wide open and a surprised expression on her face.
He discovered that there was a time when his Second Senior Sister, with her calm and sharp demeanor, was as adorable as a young girl.
The young girl, Liu Shushuang, laughed. “Master, Fourth Junior Brother, why are you here?”
“I thought …”
The Sword Saint continued, “Do you think that Ol ‘Five’s bad thoughts are not over yet!?”
Liu Shushuang said seriously, “I sent Fifth Junior Brother back, the situation in the Northern Land is a bit tense.”
“Fortunately, the sky hasn’t changed.”
Wei Jingfeng sighed, “It’s hard to say what’s going on at home.”
He consoled his only female disciple,
“His father, Duan Sheng’an, is fine, so he’s fine.”
Don’t worry too much.
“This time it’s all on his own.”
The Northern Land was under the rule of the Duan Clan. Changing the sky was a family matter, and even Sword Sage would find it difficult to get involved.
Unless Duan Chong Xuan personally said, ‘If I don’t do it, I’ll return to Cangya and focus on cultivating. From then on, the imperial power and hegemony will have nothing to do with me.’
But some responsibilities were inherent, and some of the glories to guard were etched in bone marrow and flesh. It was never a matter of words.
Yin Biyue heard her eldest senior brother talk about it at Cangya Mountain, Second Senior Sister talked about it at the Floating Sea.
At that time, he thought that with Second Senior Sister and the Green Wing Luan, this trip would be safe and sound. He never thought that danger would lurk in every direction.
But his Master was right. This time, he had to rely on only himself.
“What are you standing here for? Let’s go.”
Sword Saint jumped down from the roof and walked towards the street. “Find a place to sleep comfortably.”
Yin Biyue and Liu Shushuang followed behind him.
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with the saints going to bed.
Sword Saint walked past four inns, but none of them were able to enter.
As the night wore on, there were fewer pedestrians on the street, and some of the shops began to close.
The wind stopped in the empty street.
He looked around blankly.
Without a satisfactory place to sleep, he was like a child without sugar.
Finally, they stopped in front of a small door.
This was deep within the streets. The withered and yellow weeds were all half the height of a person, and the vermilion paint on the doors was mottled. The doors were wide enough for only one person to pass through, so it was obvious which family’s the back door was.
Sword Saint stood in front of the door and lowered his hand.
This was the first time Yin Biyue saw his master hesitate.
This door did not have a formation. With just a push, he could enter.
Even if there were, how could they stop a saint?
Finally, he turned around and said,
“Many questions, I didn’t answer you.”
If you have any questions, go in and ask them yourself. “
Yin Yu was more and more surprised, “This is …”
“Yes.”
Who would have thought that the academy also had a backdoor?
As for Sword Saint, he was still very familiar with the path.
The more he knew what was behind the door, the more likely it was that the Mr. Manager had seen or counted their arrival and was waiting for him in the yard.
“Master, aren’t you coming with us?”
“I haven’t seen your Senior Sister for a long time. Let’s find a place to have a chat …”
He paused for a moment, feeling that he was trying to cover up something, and then said,
“Last time, Li Tuzhen plotted against me. I also injured him.”
We don’t think we’re wrong.
He won’t want to see me. “
In the second half of his sentence, he lowered his voice. The more he said, the less he heard because all of his attention was focused on —
It was the Li Family’s root!
Li!
Earth!
Root!
Mr. Yuan actually called Li Tuquan ha-ha ha-ha ha-ha, no wonder no one named him Mister.
After that, he would know if this secret would be silenced or not.
Master, I’m so scared.
He wanted to drag his master inside, but when he looked back, there was no sign of his second senior sister and his master.
The door in front of him creaked open.
Yin Biyue saluted at the empty door, and greeted the owner.
Outside the courtyard, the fallen leaves were in disarray. The locust tree still covered the sky, as if it was in the middle of summer.
However, the autumn wind still blew, and the coldness didn’t decrease.
After passing through the small gate and passing through the dense locust tree and the winding corridor, he saw the people sitting in the courtyard.
Mr. Li Tuquan was reading a book.
With the leaping blue light and the bright moon.
His formation plate was destroyed, his teacup shattered.
The ten million scrolls of classics in the academy’s library were already familiar with the heart.
Fortunately, there were books in the world that he had yet to read.
There’s not going to be anything to do.
He put down his book and smiled at the newcomer.
“Come, sit down.”
Yin Biyue came forward and sat down, “I don’t dare.”
“Come to see me at night. Sorry for the intrusion.”
The gentleman waved his hand, and with a smile, as usual, indicated that he need not be impolite.
The stone table did not change, nor did the locust tree.
However, the more Yin Biyue found out, the older Mister seemed to have become a lot older.
The wrinkles on the eyes and tail became more profound, and there were spots of white hair on the temples.
They stood out in the moonlight.
What could make an Asian Sage’s life rapidly run out?
He remembered that his master had said that his master was scheming against him.
Then sir must have paid a great price.
“What do you want to ask?”
The more Yin Biyue thought about what to ask, the more questions came to his mind.
Why did he come here to watch the stars and ask him to head south?
How much did the gentleman have to do with it?
How could he be sure that Senior-apprentice Brother Luo was the reincarnation of a Demon Lord?
Was the reason why he wanted him to kill Brother Luo was because he was special?
What was Master doing?
He had a hunch that the superintendent knew all this.
It was just that Mister was too calm, so he didn’t know how to ask.
The gentleman stood up. “Don’t worry. Think about it slowly.”
Do you really not know what you want to ask me? “
He walked in front of Yin Biyue and looked into his eyes.
He raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder.
The force was very light.
“Rumble …”
Yin Biyue’s spiritual sense shook.
Late at night in the library, at the Righteous Hall under the setting sun, at the Reflection Hall in the twilight, at the forest where the sword was trained, at the distant terrace …
Countless scenes flashed across his eyes.
Like a walk in the park.
When he first came to meet his teacher, he entered into a mysterious realm, allowing him to experience three years of his previous life in the academy. He broke through the barrier and finally found a way to use the sword.
Only the memory of the closing night remained vague.
He had an intuition that those things were important.
But he couldn’t remember.
Now, he could finally see it clearly.
His schoolmates were at the Lotus Lounge, drinking wine and singing songs, and he was invited by the master to view the stars.
The wind blows the leaves of the locust tree, and the stars shine brilliantly.
“What do you see?”
“The stars.”
“Take a closer look.”
The gentleman patted him on the shoulder.
His gaze was deeper and more distant, and the universe within his eyes was infinitely closer.
Close enough to see the ice blue frost on the surface of one star.
Even though the galaxy was vast, there were only these two stars that were the brightest.
He knew that this was what the Master wanted him to see.
“I don’t understand.”
He poured a cup of tea, and the glimmer of light fell into the teacup.
“Twin stars appear in the world, the dragon and snake duels, life and death with one.”
Therefore, he did not go to the Northern Land to be an official but entered the Vast Ocean Mountain together with Luo Mingchuan.
Thus, he had the painstaking killing array and ambush from the Violet Firmament Secret Realm.
With the conversation of the Cangya Prison.
Yin Biyue spent the night, seeing more about what had happened.
His entire body felt cold.
“You two are the nemesis of each other.
In my opinion, if there is anyone in the world who can kill him, it must be you.
Otherwise, even if his fleshly body dies, the stars will not be destroyed, and his soul will not disperse, he will still be reincarnated through the nine cycles of the Heavenly Net.
“But your master doesn’t think so.”
He wants you to try.
“To fight against the heavens and change one’s fate.”
“I won’t kill you, senior brother.”
“Whatever the reason.”
His voice was soft but firm.
The bailiff laughed. “I know.”
At first, I thought it was a dead-end, but when I saw you, I realized that Wei Jingfeng was probably right.
“Try it.”
The more he thought about it, the worse his eyes became.
Regardless of whether it was Xing Shan Temple or the Bo-Pu Sect, the academy, or the empty temple, no one would believe it, not even the entire world.
His Master was still standing on his side, unchanged.
Before he had seen his master, his master had already started trying to believe him.
This trust is a bit blind, so it is particularly precious and rare.
“As long as you understand.”
“This old man is naturally right.”
The youth’s voice floated into the night wind.
This was said to the headmaster.
Swordsaint leaped down from the eaves of the library in the distance and landed in the courtyard.
The gentleman shook his head. “It’s not polite to listen to people, and you don’t go through the back door.”
“Master …”
At this moment, he really wanted to say something. He wanted to thank his Master for her trust and for meeting her.
However, the Sword Saint only waved his hand and said, “We will set off tomorrow. I will sleep first.”
He walked through the hanging flower door and pushed open the door to a room with a familiar face.
On Cangya Mountain.
When the cock crowed.
The bell rang seven times, and hundreds of disciples rushed over, gathering in front of Qing He Palace.
The Sect Leader, Zheng Yangzi, and the disciple who led Cang Ya, Luo Mingchuan, stood on the stone steps and looked at the sea of people surging down from the upper class. There were many familiar faces.
Heavy determination or still appear green and immature.
Lately, the land has been restless.
The disciples stationed at the border received news that some demonic cultivators had crossed the Floating Sea.
There were at least three to four hundred people, and their numbers had never been seen in ten thousand years.
There were already desolated villages along the border, and the weaker aristocratic families were not strong enough to contend against the demonic cultivators. Many of the refugees dragged their families and brought them to the Vast Ocean Mountain and the Parasol sect, seeking the protection of the large sects.
Most of the Vast Expanse School’s disciples had already heard of this before. At this moment, they had gathered at the bell, waiting for the orders of the sect before they descended the mountain to exorcise demons.
Luo Mingchuan’s voice spread far and wide.
“We, disciples of the Vast Expanse School, seek the great dao sincerely and sincerely.
He hadn’t intended to change his ten thousand years of establishing a sect.
Demonic cultivators were rampant and were the cause of trouble.
“How can we just shut the door and not see it? Let’s not care about this at all!”
The emotions of the disciples of Cang Ya were stirred up as they raised their swords and shouted, “No …”
“Good!”
“Disciples of the Spirit Condensation realm and above, follow me down the mountain!”
The sea of swords and the clamor of voices merged together, “Down the mountain to exorcise the devil —”
Zheng Yangzi felt that his disciple had really grown up, and was strong enough to take on the role on his own.
This made him feel gratified.
However, he sighed softly, “Be careful.”
In an instant, he was engulfed by a sea of shouts.
When Luo Mingchuan heard this, he saluted politely.
“Don’t worry, Master.”
