Chapter 216: Three Young People
Chapter 216: Three Young People
A daoist spoke up.
However, the other daoists quickly intervened, "Since he came up the mountain, every move he makes will fall into the Sect Master\'s eyes. Why would we need to do anything?"
These words made a lot of sense. Hence, there was suddenly no one who spoke up, and the mountain path became very quiet.
Sheng Yingfeng watched that back view disappearing into the mountain. It was unknown what he was thinking about.
……
……
Yun Jianyue walked casually on the Sublime Bright Mountain. He had never been to this Sublime Bright Sect, so he had no specific purpose. His actions were guided by the decision of his heart. He did not know where the outsiders were hiding on the mountain and did not make any deliberate efforts to find them either.
But as he walked through the mountain, he seemed to blend in.
Walking in accordance with his thoughts, he came upon a tangled path at some unknown point.
Looking at the crushed wild grass and footprints left behind, Yun Jianyue furrowed his brows and followed that small path.
……
……
Chen Chao and Yu Xiyi left the cave. After pulling out the key, Chen Chao spoke, "The ancient ruins have been discovered by the Sublime Bright Sect for such a long time, they must have found some valuable things. This page might be the most important item. However, the other things are surely stored elsewhere."
Yu Xiyi pondered for a moment and said, "That place was Daoist Master Ironcloud\'s cultivation ground. He was probably continuously comprehending that piece of paper. But now that you\'ve taken it, he might very well want to kill you when he finds out."
His words naturally had a playful tone.
Chen Chao smiled and said, "Even if he wants to kill someone, he probably thought about killing me a long time ago. Right now, it\'s not just about killing me; he\'d want to burn my corpse and scatter my ashes to the winds."
Yu Xiyi said, "Indeed, we should hurry down the mountain. Once that old fellow figures it out, we\'re done for."
Chen Chao shook his head and said, "I never thought about such things. It\'s just that we indeed can\'t afford to let him discover us right now."
With that said, Chen Chao walked towards the small path, and Yu Xiyi followed closely behind.
Soon, the two stopped.
Because a young daoist appeared before them.
A young daoist dressed in dark-red daoist robes.
He looked very haggard.
Yu Xiyi frowned.
Chen Chao gripped the hilt of his saber.
The three stood here, no one opened their mouth to speak for some time.
The atmosphere became a little odd.
Each of them had different ideas. At this moment, Yu Xiyi was considering summoning his flying sword. He might be able to take the young daoist\'s life in an instant. But he also felt that this daoist was anything but ordinary and he did not seem to have any way to take his life in an instant.
As for Chen Chao, he was just thinking that if he made a move, and with the addition of Yu Xiyi, the young daoist would not be able to resist them no matter how amazing he was.
Yun Jianyue was just thinking about the identities of the two people in front of him.
After a brief moment, Yun Jianyue said, "If I didn\'t guess wrongly, you must be Chen Chao."
Black attire, a broken saber, and martial artist. With such characteristics, there was probably no one more easily recognizable than Chen Chao in the world.
Chen Chao suddenly said, "You aren\'t a daoist from the Sublime Bright Sect?"
"Yun Jianyue."
Yun Jianyue introduced himself without hiding anything, as if there was no need to cover anything up.
Before Chen Chao could speak, Yu Xiyi butted in, "Twin Pillars of Daoism?"
Yun Jianyue turned to look at the young man in green. In just an instant, he saw an incredibly sharp sword intent in the young man\'s eyes.
Having traveled the world for many years and visited many places, Yun Jianyue had naturally met many people. He was considered familiar with sword cultivators, but he had never met a young sword cultivator with such a sword intent.
After a long silence, Yun Jianyue spoke, "Are you the sword master of Wild Grass?"
That major incident in the eleventh year of Tianjian, although Yun Jianyue was not a sword cultivator, he was well aware of what happened on that day.
Yu Xiyi smiled slightly, "Sword Sect, Yu Xiyi."
As Yun Jianyue listened to this, he briefly fell silent again, and then said, "Turns out that it\'s really a fellow daoist from the Sword Sect. But, that\'s to be expected. If it isn\'t a fellow daoist from the Sword Sect, how could you be so extraordinary?"
It was naturally not easy to make this daoist genius in the true sense say these words of praise.
"Actually, we should have met before."
Yun Jianyue looked at Yu Xiyi and said, "A year ago, at Yellow Dragon Prefecture, I met the corpse of a demon on that plain. The wounds were very deep, it should have been killed by Fellow Daoist."
Yu Xiyi furrowed his brows slightly, recalling the events that happened a year ago. He just happened to be in the Yellow Dragon Prefecture at year, hunting monsters on the plain. Right on that plain, he had indeed seen the corpses of demons killed by daoist spells.
"Turns out that you were there at that time too."
Yu Xiyi furrowed his brows, not expecting such a thing.
Yun Jianyue nodded his head. They never met during that period of time, but they felt the other\'s existence. Saying that they had met was correct too.
Yu Xiyi smiled, "Your cultivation realm has improved significantly compared to that year."
Yun Jianyue did not answer this to this, he just looked at Chen Chao with some curiosity in his eyes.
Chen Chao did not avoid his gaze. There was a notable gap in their cultivation realms, but he did not feel scared. It was not in Chen Chao\'s nature to be scared when even facing peers of the same generation.
"I didn\'t take part in the Divine Capital\'s Myriad Willow Convention. I originally thought that Song Changxi would win the martial examination no matter what."
Yun Jianyue said, "I even met him last year. His currently cultivation realm isn\'t, but he still lost."
Chen Chao said calmly, "Anything is possible. If he isn\'t strong enough, he\'ll naturally lose."
"At that time, you hadn\'t broken through your realm yet. You should have been a Divine Trove martial artist."
Yun Jianyue lamented, "You\'re really quite strong."
He said quite strong, it was his praise for Chen Chao, but that was all.
He did not think that Chen Chao was stronger than him, so he just said that he was quite strong.
"I\'m very strong."
Chen Chao kept his hand on the hilt of his saber as he spoke. If any trouble arose, he would swiftly draw the broken saber.
Yun Jianyue smiled and did not refute, he just said, "I always thought that the most outstanding martial artists of this generation in the Great Liang Dynasty were at the Northern Frontier. But now, it seems that you might be more outstanding than them. However, you still need some time."
His words were very objective.
Yu Xiyi could not be bothered to listen to this nonsense and said, "Why did you come here?"
Yun Jianyue looked at Chen Chao and said, "I\'m afraid you need to ask him that question."
Chen Chao nodded and said, "It\'s indeed because of me."
Yu Xiyi could not help but recall their previous conversation.
Chen Chao said that one of the secrets was sent out.
Turns out that it ended up here?
