Divine Brilliance - Chapter 448
Chapter 448: Common People Path Tanqiu
“Common people path Tanqiu? What kind of person is he?”
Located between central cloud continent and Donglin cloud continent, in a mountain villa hidden deep within the clouds, Lei Dong was at a total loss.
At this moment, the place he was standing on was within a reading room on an extremely tall cliff, outside the window mist bellowed. Within the room, however, it was extremely elegant and exquisite.
Beside him sat the Wujue Villa head Yan Fan. At this moment, his expression was complicated, admiration with a bit of pity.
As for Lei Dong, he was holding onto a message talisman, quietly using his spiritual sense to read the message within.
“…Tailing Sect has suffered heavy losses? Eh, the top Taoist sect has such a day? This Tanqiu is amazing. With just a flip of a hand, he could use just 800 mysterious dragon warriors to have such results…”
As for those hundreds of common people path elite disciples, Lei Dong didn’t put them to heart.
He was clear about the character of such elites. Their Wujue Villa also had such people, but the sect elders and seniors protected them, not letting them get hurt or injured. They haven’t been through any training, like flowers in a greenhouse. Before they had enough experience, they wouldn’t be of any use.
Then Lei Dong’s hear moved, “Reach the extreme of sword sense, within Black Spirit Valley using a self-created sword technique to defeat Ji Lingzi? Sword path connected to the spirit, unparalleled formation charger. Is Tanqiu my brother Zong Shou?”
Other people might not know, but he who had personally witnessed the battle of Ruohai Straits couldn’t be any more clear.
Unparalleled general seed…apart from Zong Yuan there was one more person—Zong Shou!
“I don’t know either, but it is most probably him!”
Yanfan slightly nodded. His expression was filled with emotions, “Do you know that such a message talisman, the 10 shrines, 19 spiritual houses, all the aristocratic families and sects all have one copy each? It wouldn’t be too far fetched to say it has spread through the galaxy. He is said to be another martial path genius after Gantian MOuntain monster king Zong Shou who had defeated Long Ruo and the other 2 on Dragon Gathering Mountain! Today, there were already people who list Tanqiu and Zong Shou along with that person in our Sword Sect main sect as one of the 3 pinnacle swords of the upcoming generation…”
Lei Dong’s expression became weird. This was good, the 3 pinnacle swords of the upcoming generation and his brother took up 2 spots alone.
“After this battle, probably within 10 years, no sect will dare to easily offend common people path. They forced Tailing Sect to agree to a 30 years agreement. These 3 sects and 6 schools could free up thousands of mysterious dragon warriors. With such an unparalleled general seed commander, such strength is enough to wipe out sects! After entering, the sect prospered so much. Was the Sect leader’s decision right or wrong? After he heard about the battle of Black Spirit Canyon, would he regret?”
Yanfan was sighing about this matter whilst Lei Dong gave him a white eye. He knew that this old man has always felt regretful for being unable to bring Zong Shou into the Sword Sect. He felt impatient, waiting for Yanfan to finish before he cut in and asked, “Cut the crap. Uncle, why did you call me back? It can’t be just to hear my brother Zong Shou’s news right?”
Yanfan was instantly slightly furious as he stared at Lei Dong. A while later, his expression returned to normal.
“What else can be the reason for calling you back? Of course, it is regarding that Jueyu!”
Lei Dong had expected it, laughing coldly, “What does that have to do with me? Although I came from Wujue Villa, I use the knife and not the sword. If the sword sect doesn’t feel like they are using face then I don’t mind fighting with that fellow!”
“Then just give up the knife and train in the sword! I let you go free for 20 years. Today, Dong’er it’s time you concentrate on the task…”
Yanfan said calmly and unruffled. Seeing Lei Dong’s expression change, his eyes showed a cunning smile, “this is what your grandfather wants. Are you not going to follow it?”
Lei Dong scoffed, saying with disdain, “Grandfather? Grandfather so what? Even if he is here I won’t agree. That stubborn old man. He can forget about making me give up on the knife to learn the sword!”
The moment his voice landed like a nail dropping on the floor, his pupils constricted, his face devoid of blood. He looked stunned outside, only to see that there was a person there were it should be a hundred thousand foot drop off the cliff.
He was around 70 and had a dark and sunken expression, coldly looking in, making him feel a chill down his spine.
For some reason, he agreed to what his uncle said just now.
If Zong Shou was able to join Wujue Villa, why would he have to take up the burden now?
※※※※
At the same time, in the center of the Donglin Cloud Continent, a place with beautiful scenery.
Xuanyuan Yiren was looking excitedly at the thing in her hand.
It was a phoenix egg that was fire red with thin golden patterns. Outside of the eggshell, a layer of flames burnt. It was originally being kept in a jade bottle but at this time Xuanyuan Yiren had taken it out. Placing it in her hands, she didn’t find it hot at all.
Her jade white hands were perfectly fine being burnt by the flames.
“It is the egg of the red fire gold phoenix. Zong Shou asked you to send it over?”
The red fire gold phoenix was one of the closest subspecies to the phoenix. It was pretty much extinct within the cloud world.
Before it was born, it was the easiest to be tamed. Using essence blood to nourish, one could let the beast recognize you as its parents and it could often skip 1-2 grades.
If one had suitable spiritual items, developing it into a natural protector beast was also possible.
However, what Xuanyuan Yiren admired the most wasn’t how precious this egg was, but that Zong Shou was thinking about her.
“Yes!”
The one who replied was Zhu Junhou from Xuan Mountain City. Due to the grievances between Gantian Mountain and Pill Fountain Sect, it wasn’t appropriate for him to go up to the sect to find her. As such, Zong Shou could only invite him to make a trip.
Zhu Junhou’s current expression was solemn.
“The ruler has also instructed for little miss to return to Xuan Mountain soon. When he turns of age he would be able to marry you. Since Pill Fountain Sect has no intention of coming to peace, then there is no reason for little miss staying here. Donglin Cloud continent’s current situation is complicated, if you don’t return early there might be some complications…”
“Complications?”
Xuanyuan Yiren’s brows furrowed, raising her head to look into the sky. How would she not know about the weird and deceitful situation within Pill Fountain Sect?
…Things will change if things get dragged on. She firmly agreed with that.
Zhu Junhou’s current expression was really serious, “Not only did the ruler say that, but even City lord also instructed like that. I also feel that way. You can just disregard it and not bother about this Pill Fountain Sect…”
Xuanyuan Yiren’s expression didn’t change, saying leisurely, “Uncle Junhou, you do know that my master mingdan old man has been in seclusion for 3 years, and there are still no signs of him? These few days, I have asked to meet him but was unable to. I remember that before he went into seclusion, he said that he just needed several months. However, till date, there is still no news. Master has treated me with so much kindness and love. If I just leave like this, I am really worried…”
Zhu Junhou’s brows were furrowed. He knew that Xuanyuan Yiren had a weird personality and paid too much attention to kindness and righteousness. He was afraid that she would say that before he came.
He sighed, thinking to himself: Zong Shou ah Zong Shou. With this little brat’s personality, she had made city lord and his wife speechless. Today it was your turn to worry for her.
He also dissed Xuanyuan Tong. This city lord was good at everything. It was only in teaching his daughter did he make one speechless.
Just as he was thinking about trying to persuade him, Xuanyuan Yiren’s brows rose as she kept the red fire golden phoenix egg into her sleeves.
A moment later, there were a few disciples who hurriedly passed from the side.
“Have you heard? That sword prince Jueyu has found his way here? Today, he is about to fight with senior brother Li…”
“So quick? Less than 10 days have passed since he swept Xuehua School. I heard that this person was badly hurt from that fight and usually, he would rest for 20-30 days before searching for the next sect. Why was there an exception this time?”
“This person has underestimated our Pill Fountain Sect! How annoying. Originally, senior brother, Li Yuandan would have been able to barely fight but now that his physical body was destroyed and the sect is helping him restore his body. Today only senior brother Li Yuanluo can fight. He is also grade 7 and might be able to compete with him!”
Those Pill Fountain Sect disciples hurriedly passed and in a while later there was no more sound anymore.
Xuanyuan Yiren’s eyes were filled with shock.
“Jueyu, Sword prince?”
Without hesitating Xuanyuan Yiren had already jumped into the air, after saying goodbye to Zhu Junhou, she flew down the mountain.
Like a ball of fire as she landed. Just as she arrived at the mountain gate, they saw a bright sword light rising, lighting up the entire area. With a loud scoff, dust and smoke bellowed in that direction.
Xuanyuan Yiren was astonished, speeding up. At the mountain waist, the large mountain gate was nowhere to be seen.
Her senior brother Li Yuanluo, who had always treated her well, was purple as he sat at one corner.
The many Pill Fountain Sect disciples were all silent, giving off no aura.
A cold voice rose from not far away.
“Is there no one in this large Pill Fountain Sect that could take one sword from me?”
The owner of the voice was a teen who was beautiful as jade, standing tall and straight.
Although he was handsome, the feeling he gave off was cold, cold without any temperature, like he wasn’t a living person at all.
His gaze coldly swept all about. He took a look at all the grade 8 and grade 9 elders. His eyes filled with disdain and disappointment.
It wasn’t that no one had the ability to fight him, it is just that none of them were willing to fight him.
It wasn’t until several breaths later when an old man walked out, cupping his fist, “My sect disciple Li Yuandan is good at spiritual cultivation and you will be returning shortly. If sword prince is willing, you can come to my Pill Fountain Sect in a year.”
“Li Yuandan? That guy who lost to Gantian Mountain monster king? Such a despicable person, I have no interest!”
When that old man stepped out, just as hope appeared in Jue Yu’s eyes, it disappeared instantly. He directly waved his sleeves and turned around, heading to the foot of the mountain.
At this moment, suddenly a bamboo bird appeared in the eyes of everyone, directly crossing the air and landing on his shoulder. It chirped softly, the sound was really crisp and clear and pleasing to the ear.
“Common people path Tanqiu?”
