Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning
Chapter 509 - 237: Face_2Chapter 509: Chapter 237: Face_2
“The Sect Hierarch has come from the east, and must have passed through the Chimei Forest. How come you didn’t invite them to join you?”
“Hmm?”
The face mask of the Youquan Sect master seemed to tremble slightly:
“Invite them to join…just to give you an opportunity to ambush us in the Chimei Forest?”
With his martial arts skill, he could come and go as he wished, very conveniently.
But if he were to bring his men along, it would obviously not be as flexible.
Moreover, Youquan Sect has been entrenched to the east of Dongcheng, controlling a vast territory.
Taking a gamble with the strength of just the Xuehai Sect to touch upon the Southwest, they ultimately failed.
As a result, the Xuehai Leader and three Commanders perished in the Southwest.
The characters under the Youquan Sect that could hold their own were already few and far between.
If he were to bring a few more over this time, and should any mishap occur, resulting in a few deaths here in Tianqu City, then would there be any point left in maintaining the Youquan Sect?
In fact, if not for the invitation from the Night Lord, he wouldn’t have rashly left the Youquan Sect to flaunt themselves in Tianqu City.
It was the Night Lord who agitated him with a phrase ’to not weaken one’s own prestige’.
How could he, the Youquan Sect master, be accused of being ’afraid’ and not daring to come when even the Night Lord himself wished to witness the grandeur of the Tianqu Sword?
Where would his prestige lie?
So he hurried all the way here, and didn’t even dare to see the Three Flag Order when passing through the Chimei Forest.
Afraid that one of these three… or to be precise, a certain one of them, would definitely want to follow along.
“It seems that it’s indeed regrettable.”
Upon hearing this, Zhuo Dongming couldn’t help but let out a light sigh.
The eyes beneath the Youquan Sect master’s mask quietly looked at Zhuo Dongming twice, then withdrew his gaze and turned to the Night Lord:
“Look, this Dongcheng Sects, cunning people are everywhere.
“A slight carelessness may give them an opening.
“Night Lord, your Eternal Night Valley, although secluded, must not be unguarded.”
“It’s fine.”
The Night Lord spoke softly: “If they wish to visit the Eternal Night Valley, this lord will gladly open the Mountain Gate wide and let all enter to roam freely.”
“And then all become the precious collectibles inside your Shadow Tower?”
The Youquan Sect master chuckled.
Yet the Night Lord said no more, just quietly sitting there, turning his gaze to “Wan Cangxin”.
“Wan Cangxin” stood with his sword embraced, seemingly entering a state of oblivion, deaf to the changes around him, eyes seeing nothing.
But others did not know.
At this moment, his mind was in turmoil.
What had happened after Su Mo went out last night?
Not one of the Heavenly Spring Twelve Swords had returned.
Even the Five Ghosts Heaven Net lurking outside Tianqu City had sent back no news.
Although he was prepared to abandon the Heavenly Spring Twelve Swords,
This complete absence of news made him quite uneasy.
The most crucial point was whether the real Wan Cangxin was dead or alive?
If this point could not be clarified, today’s event might be difficult to accomplish without mishap.
The only consolation for now was that the Night Lord had arrived.
This play could ultimately continue.
As for Liu Suifeng…
Earlier, with the weakest swordsman of the Heavenly Spring Twelve Swords, they went to meet him.
Liu Suifeng was a top-notch Swordsman.
With such a brief encounter, he must have already ascertained the strength of “Wan Cangxin”; catching him by surprise in this battle would not be difficult!
Even though he has been honed to a higher level by the persistent trials of the Seven Great Sects,
Today, the disciple of the Yuan Shan Sword Sect received information that “Wan Cangxin” wouldn’t be totally ignorant of.
However… in the eyes of “Wan Cangxin”, the proportion of exaggeration in this news far outweighed the reality.
Even if he truly reached such a level, with the Longsword in his palm, he still had the confidence to fight.
And even if retreating ten thousand steps, even if defeated, the outcome of the battle did not matter to the grand scheme.
Just looking at the current state of the Tianqu Sword, the tasks that needed to be done had essentially been completed.
His eyes closed tightly, his breathing more and more even.
After sorting out these thoughts in his heart, he finally adjusted his state completely.
Just waiting for the arrival of Liu Suifeng.
Time…passed in this wait.
The Night Lord sat solemnly, silent and still, like an ethereal shadow.
The Youquan Sect master was somewhat lethargic.
Shifting position from time to time, occasionally glancing at the experts of the Dongcheng Sects with a chuckle.
Especially when his gaze lingered on Xuanyuan Xiaoshan, it was particularly chilling.
The little monk was young, but bold.
His face was shy, but his eyes were rolling, occasionally making eye contact with the Youquan Sect master and smiling faintly, clearly up to no good.
Luo Changsheng was vigilantly keeping everyone present within his sight, praying in his heart for peace.
Xuanyuan Xiaoshan would occasionally glance at the Night Lord, her eyes filled with both caution and curiosity.
This man who has been around in Jianghu for decades, yet very few have seen the true face beneath his black robe.
And this was also her first time seeing this legendary figure.
He indeed had an extraordinary presence.
While being vigilant, she also wanted to understand more about him.
After all, the more you want to deal with someone, the more you need to understand them.
The day you understand him better than he understands himself, his life and death will be at your whim.
And among all those present, Zhuo Dongming was the most relaxed.
This old man sat there chuckling, somehow retrieving a handful of sunflower seeds from somewhere, trying to share with those around him.
