Martialism
Chapter 49's
Yi Ping was looking at the stunning scenery of the Holy Amalgamate Mountain Range. After a difficult journey, they all finally reached their destination, only to encounter some minor difficulties along the way.
They avoided taking the main road and were guided by Lingfeng through many mountains and valleys.
Lingfeng had explained, “Although we are near the territory of the Holy Hex Clan clan and its allies, the number of unfriendly clans gathered at the foot of the Holy Amalgamate amounts to hundreds and their proteges numbering in the thousands. we'd better completely avoid the main road altogether.”
He looked at Yi Ping sharply and asked, “What's up, Yi Ping? You don't seem happy. Is it because we are not interested in the Celestial Star Formation?”
Yi Ping was surprised, “Lingfeng, you are not interested in the Celestial Star Formation?”
Lingfeng quickly said, “Not that. Why do you look so depressed lately? It was very different from the Yi Ping I knew who was undaunted by any difficulty.”
Yi Ping secretly shared his worries with him, “Lingfeng, in the past ... I lived a simple life and lived a carefree life. I don't know fraternity in general and don't even know what life is in fraternity. After I had fought with the old man, I suddenly knew fear. It's not that I'm really scared of him but .. I don't want to lose anyone from you. I don't want to lose you, Lingfeng. I'm really scared now.”
Lingfeng's alluring eyes were watery, “It's okay Yi Ping. You've done your best. You know you should not accompany me back to the Holy Mountains of Amalgamate ..”
Yi Ping said, “Not that, Lingfeng. I.wanted to protect you. I want to be strong now. I also can't afford to lose Youxue, Ding Yun, Yu’Er and Mei’Er. If anyone comes to hurt me, I'll be heartbroken. I know that I shouldn't have said that, but I.. really don't know my heart anymore.”.
Lingfeng said gently, “Yi Ping, you don't need to say it anymore. Just follow your heart ..”
Yi Ping smiled bitterly, “I can't even trust my heart anymore. Part of me told me to go stealthily and forget the burden of the heart.Perhaps the Emptiness of Transparency is toying with me.
Lingfeng said slowly, “Hmph, what a Translucent Void .. If you do that, I will kill myself in front of you ..”
Yi Ping was surprised.
Unbeknownst to Yi Ping, Youxue, Yu’Er, Mei’Er and Ding Yun stood up and listened while crying from his sight…
Back to the present…
When Gongsun Jing looked at the stunning misty mountains and valleys in the Holy Amalgamate Mountains, she said sadly. “All slopes of dangerous mountains. This is really a place that is easy to defend and hard to attack.”
He asked Ding Yun, “Maiden Ding, are you okay? You are silent along the way ..”
Ding Yun said politely, “I always keep quiet. That's not strange.”
Gongsun Jing sighed softly, “Is that so?”
Qiu Wufeng said, “I think the Heavenly Mountains are quite majestic but this is too amazing.”
Yu’Er disagrees with ******soft*, “This is not a really accurate way to say it. For me, I prefer the snow and ice of the Heavenly Mountains.”
Qiu Wufeng smiled bitterly, “Ya, yes. You're right.” But he secretly thought. “The Heavenly Mountains are a cold and silent place; I will never want to go there again ..”
Mei’Er adds dazzlingly, “Oh? Why is that what you say and what you think looks different?”
Qiu Wufeng protested, “That's not true. Swear!”
He quickly tried to distract from himself by saying, “Why is Brother Nangong so quiet today?”
Nangong Le smiled dreamily, “I admire the view ..”
Yu’Er blushed as she interjected with a look of disdain in her eyes, “She lied. He was filled with dirty thoughts!”
Nangong Le forced a weak smile, “That's not true, Yu’Er. You are also very beautiful today. Your beauty is as amazing as a rainbow. I just appreciate the rainbow here ..”
Yi Ping turned his head as he looked around, “Brother Nangong, you really have sharp eyes. I don't see rainbow ..”
Lingfeng almost fainted as she reprimanded Yi Ping secretly, “You are very dense ... I give up on you ..!”
Nangong Le said to Mei’Er and Yu’Er, “You know. We have a lot in common such as music, swordplay, good appreciation of art.”.
Mei’Er humming in a cold tone, “No longer .. You can save your effort, Young Master Nangong.”
Nangong Le smiled silently to herself, “Someday, I will melt your heart ..”
Youxue walked calmly beside Nangong Le, whispering in an almost inaudible voice in his ear. “I'll blind you if you dare to see me again. And don't think I didn't know you've been peeping at us all the time in silence all the way.”
Nangong Le broke out in cold sweat.
When Yi Ping saw that Lingfeng had put on a look of annoyance, he quickly said to her, “Lingfeng! We finally reached the Holy Mountains of Amalgamate. The view here is beautiful. You've grown up here?”
Lingfeng nodded gently at Yi Ping, “Yes, I have grown here.”
He pointed to the yellow mountains on the far horizon, “Did you see those yellow mountains on the horizon?”
Yi Ping said, “This is beautiful, isn't it? Maybe we can stay there in the future ..”
Lingfeng smiled weakly, “You.you.do not want to go there! The mountains there are called the Nirvana Mountains. It was said that the Heavenly Palace was somewhere in those mountains. No one came back from that place. But we were able to see the Nirvana Mountains from here.”
Mei’Er asked her, “Lingfeng sister, why is your heart filled with sadness? Shouldn't you be happy that you're home now?”
Lingfeng sighed softly, “I ..”
Yi Ping said, “Lingfeng, don't worry. I will protect you no matter how difficult it is.”
Lingfeng looked at Yi Ping alluringly …
Yi Ping started to blush.
He quickly turned around and walked in haste, “We better hurry. We're almost there ..”
Suddenly, he froze in his tracks!
It was because Yi Ping had seen such a terrifying sight!
The mountain slope on the other side of the mountain was covered with charred bodies of hundreds of fallen exponents. Their weapons and martial banners scattered everywhere!
Lingfeng jerks, “Klan orthodox has reached the top?”
Yi Ping said quietly, “So many are dead. Is it worth it to just throw away their lives? For what reason?”
Ding Yun pacified Lingfeng, “From the clothes and banners of the dead, it seems that they are mostly from orthodox clans. It could be a small battle. I did not see any banners from major orthodox clans or Honor Manor.”
Youxue said, “Now I can understand why it is so difficult to attack the Sacred Hex Sect and why Honor Manor gathers almost the entire fraternity.”
Everyone looked at Youxue.
Yi Ping asked, “Why?”
Youxue said coldly, “The wind move always moves down the slope. It was easy to take advantage of the fire attack. It seemed that this smaller clan was cannon fodder for the main orthodox clan to exhaust the flammable materials of the Sacred Hex Sect before they made their final move.”
He paused for a moment before saying, “Even as we speak, there are dozens of fighters approaching us from the top of the mountain, better you explain that we are on your side or we will be burned alive.”
Ding Yun smiled, “Or was crushed by boulders ..”
Yujian had prepared his fingers while Mei’Er waved Divine Emerald Skills as they giggled, “Or arrows ..”
Yi Ping immediately shouted, “Heyyyyyy...we are allies and not enemies!!! We are friends of your Holy Girl!!!”
His martial will was unusually strong and immediately there were echoes of his screams returning from all directions!
Lingfeng immediately stomped her feet, “Heaven, they haven't even appeared .. you don't need to shout like that ... you really want the whole world to know ..”
Yi Ping said frantically, “Lingfeng, by the time they see us. We better announce ourselves first ..”
Gongsun Jing immediately said, “Sister Yi Ping, brilliant! Nice work!”
Qiu Wufeng is equally impressive, “Even I have ignored him. Brother Yi Ping, you may have saved us from many unnecessary troubles!”
Nangong Le took the opportunity to flatter Yi Ping, “I will praise the wisdom and foresight of Brother Yi Ping but Brother Gongsun, you have taken my dialogue first.”
Yi Ping laughed uncomfortably as he said, “Nothing. Anyone would think of that too. I happen to be the one who screams first.”
Nangong Le laughs, “That's right. Even if Brother Yi Ping did not shout a moment ago, I am worried that the next shouting is me, Haha.”
Qiu Wufeng agrees, “True, true! I will also be next!”
Gongsun Jing smiled, “It is our duty to protect the girls. Leave this rude shout to us!”
Suddenly, over thirty men in black and with blue and white badges appeared from all sides of the mountain slope!
In their hands were bows, spears, and long swords!
Leading them was a refined man with a scientific look.
As soon as Lingfeng saw him, she said excitedly. “Qian Fan! That's you!”
He turned around and said to his friends, “He is Qian Fan. He was one of the Six Guardians of the Holy Chapter and also an elder of the Sacred Hex Sect.”
Qian Fan walked towards him excitedly, “Lingfeng! At first when our scouts reported that they had seen you, I still couldn't believe my ears! But then, who else besides you knows this secret path? Did you know we had it? been waiting here for weeks for your return? Finally, you have returned! Your brother is worried about your safety.”
He paused for a moment before asking, “This is your friend?”
Lingfeng nodded, “They are all my friends and came to help us.”
Qian Fan said, “Currently we have to be extra careful. Friends betray friends for their ambitions and personal gain. Although they claim to be your friends, but their actions may prove otherwise.”
He turned around and looked at Nangong Le, Gongsun Jing, Yi Ping and Qiu Wufeng before saying, “Who is that idiot who shouted so loudly just now? Do you want the scouts from the orthodox clan to know that there is another path to the Sacred Hex Sect?”
Yi Ping became very red as Gongsun Jing, Nangong Le and Qiu Wufeng looked at each other awkwardly and with great embarrassment.
Yi Ping said, “I ... I ..”
Lingfeng laughed out loud, “There are scouts above and they can see us from miles above. That's what Yun is trying to tell you. There are no holes here for you to hide. Why don't you roll down the mountain slope? wasn't he? It's much faster.” And he gave Yi Ping a surprise boost by displaying the Divine Horizon Hands!
“Lingfeng! You really! You ... really tried to push me down the mountain!”
“Serve you properly for trying to be smart!”
“Lingfeng, I don't remember my father ever teaching you the Divine Horizon Hand. Where's my secret manual?”
“After I saw you use it many times, I also took some movements. You're kidding, aren't you? You must have lost it somewhere. Don't try to tell your father that I stole it when you lost it carelessly. !”
“Quick return my secret manual to me…! You must have stolen it when you..Cium..”.
“What…? Shameless! You dare to say such brazen things in broad daylight! I want to see if your father will help me or you.Hmph!”.
Yu’Er and Mei’Er glanced at each other in embarrassment. It was because before they could praise Yi Ping, the protege of the Sacred Hex Sect had appeared…
Qian Fan was surprised. He had never seen this carefree Lingfeng before. He was always careful in maintaining his attitude and following proper etiquette. As a Holy Girl, her words were law and her behavior was a symbolic representation of the Sacred Hex Sect!
He was jealous and envious of this young man all of a sudden. He asked Lingfeng, “This friends of yours, their names?”
Lingfeng said coldly, “Yi Ping, Nangong Le, Gongsun Jing, Qiu Wufeng.
Qian Fan hummed coldly, “I know they are fine. They're all wanted by Honor Manor.”
Lingfeng said, “That's right.”
Qian Fan suddenly unsheathed his long sword, shocking everyone!
Lingfeng reprimanded him, “What are you doing? They are my friends, are you trying not to obey me?”
Qian Fan said, “I dare not. But these people were too famous and it would be dangerous for the Holy Girl to get too close to them. I'd rather we don't make them allies. We don't need outsiders to interfere. the affairs of our sect.”
Lingfeng hummed coldly, “Get rid of your sword. They were framed by Honor Manor and are good people.”
Qian Fan said, “No smoke without fire. Lately, I have heard a lot of bad rumors about them. Wherever they went, they had kidnapped innocent girls and even violated them in the most despicable way. They had even allied themselves with this so-called ‘Klan Axiom of True’ and had even killed Xiao Da, the young master of the Virtue Palace in a vile and cold-hearted ambush. Before Xiao Da died, it seemed like he was placed through a terrible and torturous ordeal. I even heard that there was Maiden Ding Yun from Virtuous Palace who had been humiliated by that Yi Ping and was forced to be with him.”.
Youxue was surprised when he thought, “We only used ‘Klan Axiom True’ only once and it was a meeting with Chi Zhengqi. Don't tell me he spread those rumors?!”
Lingfeng cursed Chi Zhengqi in her heart, “Definitely that person from the Five Elements Clan! I will exterminate your entire clan!”
Ding Yun said in a trembling voice, “Diam.
Yi Ping yelled angrily, “Shut up!” He quickly caught Ding Yun's hand and comforted him. “Yun..are you okay? This is just a rumor..”
Lingfeng added coldly, “This is all a rumor. I'll rephrase. I don't want to hear a word from anyone about this rumor in the Sacred Hex Sect. Do you understand me? My Sacred Law.”
Qian Fan sighed, “I comply with your wishes, Holy Girl. But still, Lingfeng you must be careful ..”
Lingfeng interjected in a cold manner, “Sacred Girl.”
Qian Fan was surprised. His little sister, Lingfeng, had never spoken to him in this manner before. He gave her permission to use her name…
Qian Fan sighed, “I have two things to report. Four of our Elders from the Holy Chapter .. they have been killed not long ago in a battle with an orthodox martial clan .. Elder Wang, Elder Shen, Elder Youlong, Elder Di .. unfortunately .. “.
Lingfeng instantly turned pale as she quickly asked, “Who ... who has the ability to take their lives?”
Qian Fan looked dejected, “They are ‘Three Sage’ of the orthodox martial clan; Sage Sword of the Aegis Sword Clan, Martial Sage of the Ironclad Clan and Sage Element of the Five Elements Clan.”
Yi Ping, Nangong Le, Qiu Wufeng, Gongsun Jing, Youxue, Yu’Er, Mei’Er.be surprised to hear the name of the Five Elements Clan mentioned! Chi Zhengqi was also from that martial clan…
Lingfeng tried hard to hold back her tears as she said softly, boldly. “Is that? The Three Sages were all super martial exponents and had lived alone for decades. Dishonored killed by them.”
Only one of the Wise Men came from the Seven Major Orthodox Sword Clans. The Three Sages had all disappeared from the martial fraternity over the past three to five decades; their legacy became the myth of the martial fraternity and was retold many times to this day!
The Ironclad Clan did not attend the trial held by Gongsun Bai. If any other clan dared to refuse the invitation of the Honor Clan, then that clan would risk being annihilated but not the Ironclad Clan. The Ironclad Clan was too influential and the legacy of the Martial Sage was still exerting an invisible hand in the affairs of the martial fraternity!
Yi Ping had been with Lingfeng for a long time. From her delicate expression, she knew that she was desperate and sad.
Qian Fan said quietly, “Holy Lady, where is the Heavenly Envoy that is with you?”
Lingfeng said slowly, “He will not come again. He has something important to complete.”
Qian Fan said, “It's a shame. There was another Heavenly Envoy who had just arrived today. He said that he was his friend and said that he was the Prime Minister of the Heavenly Palace. If we have two Celestials from the Heavenly Palace to help us. , then we need not fear the Three Wise Men.”.
Lingfeng was surprised, “What are you saying? Hurry along! Come back to the Hall of the Holy Chapters immediately! Sacred Hex Sect is in great danger!”
