The golden envelope was made of some kind of metal. It was light, soft, yet heavy. There were strange dragon and tiger patterns carved on it. It was exquisite and beautiful.
Although the envelope made of rich gold was tacky, it was undeniable that it was luxurious.
Yun Xi also widened her eyes. Although she came from a big family, she had never seen such an envelope. Beijiang City wasn't small, but it definitely didn't have such craftsmanship. It was just an envelope, but it showed the extraordinary extravagance of the Heaven Conquering Martial Sage.
Gao Zhengyang had seen many artifacts. No matter how exquisite and beautiful an envelope was, it was nothing to him.
Opening the envelope, Gao Zhengyang's finger touched the golden letter inside. He sensed a strong martial aura from the letter.
The aura was like a peerless long saber. It soared into the sky and seemed to be able to break through all obstacles.
The laws of vitality in this world were strong and stable, limiting the external changes of the mind and soul. For the envelope to have such a strong martial aura, the Heaven Conquering Martial Sage must have smeared his essence on it.
The essence that was condensed to the extreme already contained all the power and will of the Heaven Conquering Martial Sage. Therefore, holding this letter would allow one to sense the power and aura of the Heaven Conquering Martial Sage.
If it was any other expert, they would definitely make a fool of themselves if they were caught off guard by the aura of the Heaven Conquering Martial Sage. However, to Gao Zhengyang, although the power of this martial will was alright, the changes were too crude.
In fact, when the Golden Eyed Ape punched him, Gao Zhengyang's mind and soul were almost destroyed by the force of the punch. It was also such a terrifying experience that made his mind and soul stronger.
Gao Zhengyang thought that even if he faced the Golden Eyed Ape's punch again, his mind and soul would not be shaken by its power. In comparison, the aura of the Heaven Conquering Martial Sage on the letter was not even considered a breeze.
He casually took out the letter, and there were only a few lines of words written on it. In summary, it was an invitation for Gao Zhengyang to participate in the Heaven Conquering Sword Meet. The words were polite and friendly. There was no intention of provoking him.
After reading the letter, Gao Zhengyang asked the Heaven Conquering Sect's envoy, "What is the Heaven Conquering Sword Meet for?"
The envoy, Meng Yuan, had been observing Gao Zhengyang. He was surprised and disappointed when he did not notice anything unusual after receiving the letter.
This letter was meant to be a test. Even a Martial Sage would find it hard to ignore the powerful aura of the Towering Sky Martial Sage on the letter. Gao Zhengyang, on the other hand, was like a bottomless abyss, with no response or movement.
Meng Yuan's attitude towards Gao Zhengyang had also become more sincere and respectful. He lowered his head slightly and said, "The Heavenly Sword Gathering is organized by my sect master and is held once every three years. The conference invited Martial Saints from all over the world to compete and discuss the Martial Dao. Not only that, but you can also taste the Ice Essence unique to the Ling Tian Peak … "
"Sword Duel at Mount Hua?"
This was Gao Zhengyang's first reaction, but he felt that something was wrong. From the situation in Beijiang City, it could be seen that the martial artists in this world were very pragmatic. He was afraid that he would not have the leisure to compete in the sword.
The martial arts here were all about cultivating the physical body, and the martial arts theory was relatively simple. There weren't many tricks in a real battle. Once they started fighting, it would be very easy for them to fight to the death.
Martial Saint Ling Tian's Sword Gathering seemed to have been held a few times. If he could find someone to participate every time, there must be enough temptation. Moreover, there couldn't be too much danger.
Gao Zhengyang didn't care about danger. He just hoped that there would be some new tricks to surprise him.
After taking in a deep breath, Gao Zhengyang said, "I want to get to know Martial Saint Ling Tian. It would be great if I have a chance to discuss the sword with other Martial Saints."
Hearing Gao Zhengyang agree, the envoy Meng Yuan was really happy, "Mr. Gao, our ship will return tomorrow. The rooms on the ship are spacious and comfortable. If you don't mind, please follow us back. "
"Of course."
Gao Zhengyang agreed right away. Being able to take a ship was much more comfortable than taking a car. If he could lie down, he wouldn't sit. If there was no need, he wouldn't travel far.
"Master, I want to go too," Seven heard that Gao Zhengyang was about to leave and was afraid that he would leave her behind, so she shouted anxiously.
Gao Zhengyang glanced at Seven, "What's the rush? Who said that I won't bring you?"
Seven's disciple had a wild personality and she hadn't mastered her fist technique, so of course, he couldn't leave her alone. Moreover, he had to rely on Seven as a fighter, so how could he leave her behind?
After getting Gao Zhengyang's promise, Seven was in a great mood and smiled.
Yun Xi hesitated and said, "Master, disciple also wants to participate in the Ling Tian Sword Gathering."
After seeing the grandeur of Ling Tian Sect, Yun Xi desired to see the exciting world outside. The Ling Tian Sword Gathering was a precious opportunity.
She had followed Gao Zhengyang for a period of time and knew that he was a magnanimous person and wouldn't play any tricks. In front of him, she shouldn't act smart. She should just say whatever she thought.
"Let's go, let's go."
Gao Zhengyang waved his hands and agreed right away. He only had two disciples. One fought and the other served him, both of them were useful. Even if Yun Xi didn't say it, he couldn't leave her behind.
Yun Xi was really happy too and hurriedly bowed to Gao Zhengyang to express her gratitude. Seven pulled Yun Xi's hand and said disapprovingly, "Why are you so polite to Master!"
Yun Xi smiled and thought to herself that she was close to Master. She was his nominal disciple, so of course, she had to be more respectful.
However, these principles couldn't be explained right away. With Seven's personality, it was hard for her to understand. Anyway, as long as Seven trained well and was loyal to Master, everything else didn't matter.
Sometimes, Yun Xi envied Seven, but she knew that she was different from her. She couldn't learn from Seven.
The Ling Tian Sect's messenger, Meng Yuan, also seized the opportunity to size up Xiao Qi and Yun Xi.
Yun Xi's features were elegant and beautiful with a delicate aura. However, her actions couldn't help but be a little reserved. One look and one could tell that she came from a small sect.
Seven wasn't tall and her skin was wheat-colored. Her eyes were bright and sharp. The red sword robe was really bright and gave off an indescribable wildness. She was filled with life and energy.
Meng Yuan had heard of Seven's legend and was naturally more curious about her. When he observed her, he took a few more glances.
This was also noticed by Seven and she looked at Meng Yuan with a sharp gaze. She looked like a cat that was about to pounce on Meng Yuan at any moment.
Although Meng Yuan was a Xiantian Stage Three expert, he couldn't help but have goosebumps when Seven stared at him.
"She's a guest, behave yourself."
Gao Zhengyang lectured Seven. Since they were going to participate in the Ling Tian Sword Gathering, there was no need to fight.
Xiao Qi bared his teeth at Meng Yuan unwillingly and dragged Yun Xi away.
Gao Zhengyang smiled at Meng Yuan and didn't say anything. There was no need to explain this and Meng Yuan didn't have the right to.
Meng Yuan didn't dare to be impudent and quickly apologized, "I was too arrogant just now."
"It's a small matter," Gao Zhengyang replied calmly.
The next morning, Ling Tian Sect's battleship set off along the river.
There were many huge iron wheels behind the ship that were driven by human power. Although they were going against the current, they were still very fast.
The south bank of the river was a boundless fertile plain while the north bank was a continuous stretch of green mountains. There was a lookout platform at the top of the ship. Seven and Yun Xi stood on it and looked at the scenery on both sides of the river happily.
Yun Xi was still okay and had the restraint of a girl. Although she was excited, she could control herself and not lose her composure.
Little Seven was like a monkey, happily dancing and crying out from time to time.
That joyful look made many people on the ship look over.
In a luxuriously decorated cabin, an arrogant young man with a silver crown on his head sneered, "That arrogant master handed over such a wild monkey!"
"That person is a peerless genius and can't be judged by common sense …"
Meng Yuan said seriously, "Meng Qi, strength is strength. It has nothing to do with personality, speech, appearance, or clothes."
Monchi, who had been taught a lesson, was somewhat unconvinced. "What's inside is outside. Great strength will naturally accumulate and reveal a completely different demeanor. What was this Little Seven worth? That Yun Xi is reserved and conservative, not even worth mentioning. "
Meng Qi said again, "The two disciples aren't much, so what's so great about Master!"
"Sigh …"
This younger brother was stubborn and arrogant. In his eyes, there was only their Master, High Heaven Martial Sage. Other than him, he didn't see anyone else. Meng Qi couldn't do anything to him.
After thinking for a while, Meng Yuan said, "Master only told you to come and take a look. You can't make a move unless it's necessary. Since the other party agreed to attend and didn't raise any excessive conditions, you should just stay here obediently. "
Meng Qi snorted disdainfully, "Why don't we test his depth? If he makes a fool of himself at the sword meet, Master will definitely blame us!"
"You're smart."
Meng Yuan was very unhappy, "Don't tell me I don't even have this little bit of foresight!"
Seeing that Meng Yuan was really angry, although Meng Qi was still unwilling, he could only give up on the idea of making a move, "Alright, I won't take the initiative to cause trouble. But if they provoke me, then they can't blame me. "
"You stay in the cabin, what would they do to provoke you!"
Meng Yuan's face was dark, "Don't bring out your style in the sect. Mr. Gao is definitely an extraordinary person of the present age. Maybe he can help Master solve that problem! Don't mess around, I can't help you if something happens … "
Meng Qi sneered again. He couldn't be bothered to explain.
The dignified Ling Tian Sect was the ruler of this area. The Ling Tian Martial Sage was a famous powerhouse in the world. As one of the top 10 disciples of the sect, Meng Yuan acted cautiously. It was simply laughable.
However, Meng Yuan was his blood brother and the person in charge, so he still had to give him face. However, he had made up his mind to find a chance to test Gao Zhengyang's depth sooner or later.
It would take at least 20 days to walk from Beijiang City to Ling Tian City. With such a long time, he would definitely find a chance.
Moreover, that girl called Xiao Qi was very wild, so it was extremely easy for her to find something to do.
Meng Qi made up his mind and didn't speak anymore.
The two brothers quarreled very softly, and the room was very tightly sealed. However, every word they said fell into Gao Zhengyang's ears.
Gao Zhengyang didn't have time to pay attention to the Meng Yuan brothers, but when they mentioned Xiao Qi, it attracted his attention.
"This Ling Tian Sword Meet is really problematic …"
