Chapter 353: Chapter 185: A Sword Enters Dongcheng_3
"It is so."
Wei Ziyi said with a smile, "However, there is something else. I need to return to the Lengyue Palace for a while. There is something I don’t know if you have heard... Recently, a major event occurred in Dongcheng.
"Or rather... a major event occurred throughout Donghuang."
"What happened?"
Her words indeed piqued the curiosity of both Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun.
"Yu Liu Sword Heart Liu Sui Feng, with one sword, entered Dongcheng, challenging the Dongcheng Sects to test his sword in combat and sharpen his Divine Rainbow Heart Seeking Sword!"
"What?"
Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun looked at each other: "When did this news come out?"
"Just within this month."
Wei Ziyi said, "So, aside from discussing matters of Zhongfu City with my grandfather, I was also summoned back by the sect to watch the battle when Yu Liu Sword Heart challenges Lengyue Palace.
"However... that’s actually not all, the reason Liu Sui Feng suddenly made his way into Dongcheng with a sword is because of one person."
"You girl, always learning from others’ ways of building suspense, huh?"
Su Mo’s mouth twitched.
"Humph..."
Wei Ziyi gave him a glance and then said, "It’s because someone challenged him!"
"Who?"
"Wan Cangxin!"
Wei Ziyi uttered three words.
"???"
Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun were both stunned, why would it be this person?
But while they were puzzled, another thought inevitably arose:
"On what grounds?"
Wan Cangxin was just an unknown disciple of Wushengtang, known among Jianghu people only because he had fallen in love with the little princess of Wushengtang.
Although rumors say his martial arts are strong,
with his abilities, challenging Liu Sui Feng... how could Liu Sui Feng possibly care about him? freewёbnoνel.com
If anyone and everyone could challenge Liu Sui Feng, his life as the Yu Liu Sword Heart would hardly be peaceful.
Neither in terms of reputation nor martial arts skill does this man seem qualified.
"That’s what makes Jianghu fascinating."
Wei Ziyi smiled and said, "Great Hall Master Wan Yutang of Wushengtang probably didn’t expect this unnoticed junior from the same sect to have an impressive background. Do you know who... the number one swordsman of Dongcheng is?"
"The number one swordsman in Dongcheng..."
Yang Xiaoyun’s expression changed slightly: "Ziyi, are you possibly talking about... the Heavenly Spring Sword God?"
"Exactly him."
Wei Ziyi immediately nodded, glanced at the slightly bewildered Su Mo, and smiled, "Lord Su is supreme in martial arts and excels in letters, yet it seems your knowledge lacks a bit.
"Heavenly Spring Sword God suddenly rose to prominence years ago, wielding the Sky Spring Sword across Donghuang, challenging various sword experts.
"Since his appearance in Jianghu, he has never been defeated.
"With his Heavenly Spring Heart Cleansing Sword technique, he shook the Jianghu!
"Since then he has been known as the top swordsman of Dongcheng.
"However, after turning thirty, he refrained from fighting, rather he passed on his teachings to three disciples.
"Unfortunately, these three disciples did not have good fortunes.
"The eldest disciple sought to exorcise demons and ventured into Eternal Night Valley to attempt to kill the Night Lord.
"But he was killed by the Night Lord instead.
"The second disciple suffered a deviation in his sword training, which caused his Sword Heart to turn demonic, drastically altering his temperament, and wreaking havoc under Dongcheng.
"He was eventually jointly killed by our seniors from both Lengyue Palace and Ziyang Sect.
"The youngest disciple was the most pitiful; he was the most gifted in comprehension, highest in talent, and strongest in martial arts among them.
"He was neither extreme nor unyielding, said to be graceful and gentle.
"Yet, because of love, he ruined his reputation and eventually died by his own hand in the Jianghu.
"After these events, the Heavenly Spring Sword God took no more disciples, and supposedly had also retired his Sky Spring Sword.
"But who would have thought, that quiet Wan Cangxin, was actually a closed-door disciple taken late in life by the Heavenly Spring Sword God.
"It is said that he has mastered the essence of the Heavenly Spring Heart Cleansing Sword technique.
"In Wushengtang, he never used a sword and single-handedly killed an Hall Master and severely wounded two with his bare hands.
"It is said that if he had used a sword... those three would stand no chance in fighting him.
"After he left Wushengtang and went to Dongcheng, somehow he revealed his identity and even bravely invited Liu Sui Feng to fight him in Tianqu City.
"Only then did Liu Sui Feng enter Dongcheng with a sword, challenging various sects along the way, all the while sharpening his Divine Rainbow Heart Seeking Sword and confronting Wan Cangxin with the sharpened blade."
After finishing this lengthy explanation, Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun were speechless for a long while.
Who could have imagined such twists and turns?
However, it also made them wonder, why would Wan Cangxin, with such a stature, remain an anonymous disciple in Wushengtang?
After this challenge, they could understand why.
Using the identity of a Wushengtang disciple, it would have been incredibly difficult for him to marry the daughter of Wushengtang.
Now that he had revealed himself, refusing to hide anymore, he plans to achieve something significant as a disciple of the Heavenly Spring Sword God, perhaps even renewing his relationship with her.
Especially if he wins this battle, Wushengtang might have to peacefully revoke the Death Order, and Wan Yutang would have to honestly introduce this son-in-law into the family, happily letting him trouble his daughter.
"How quickly times change... thirty years can truly transform a river east to west," Su Mo shook his head slightly, "I have also been planning a trip to Dongcheng these days, I might have a chance to see this excitement."
"Are you going to Dongcheng too?"
Wei Ziyi was startled.
"Indeed, I recently wrote a letter to Ziyang Sect, and the Sect Leader has already replied, allowing me to meet the masters there."
Su Mo smiled, having received this response even earlier than Wei Ziyi.
He even had time to compare it with the notes from the letter Duan Song wrote, indeed confirming it came from the same person.
"...Then let’s go together! It’d be great to accompany each other on the road!"
"That could work."
Su Mo thought for a moment and nodded, yet he glanced at Yang Xiaoyun again.
Yang Xiaoyun chuckled and said, "I won’t be joining this time. The other day, Wanxin Trading Company sent another escort request, and there are countless matters within the escort agency that need handling.
"Besides... my father... well, it’s really not suitable for me to leave home at this time."
"Do you two have any time tonight?"
Wei Ziyi suddenly asked, "I heard from Huang Yuan that he sent a letter to my grandfather a while back, inviting you to visit the City Lord Manor as guests. But then... this matter with Chief Yang happened, and we had to delay it.
"If you’re available tonight, how about we catch up at the City Lord Manor?"
