The sun was setting.
The Qingcheng School's Sect Master, Jing Weizhuang, rode on a horse with He Tianxing on an ancient path that cut across the valley.
Both sides of the ancient path were bare cliffs without any plants. The cliffs were about a hundred meters high, and the entire environment was extremely desolate. Occasionally, the cawing of crows could be heard in the sky, making the place even more desolate.
Jing Weizhuang and He Tianxing were the survivors of the battle in Martial City.
The two of them were very lucky. They were with the experts of a few forces at that time. When the Executing Heaven Sword appeared, they worked together to resist the aftermath.
However, the other disciples of Qingcheng School were not as lucky as them. They did not escape the disaster and died tragically in Martial City.
Jing Weizhuang originally wanted to kill Shenlang and He Tianxing after the Martial Arts Circle Convention to get rid of their inner demons.
However, after seeing the Sword Saint, Jing Weizhuang gave up. When Hades was fighting with the Temple of Eternal Life, they even secretly ran away.
They were afraid that Shenlang would kill them.
He Tianxing rode quietly on the horse without saying a word. No one knew what he was thinking, and his face was gloomy.
Seeing He Tianxing's expression, Jing Weizhuang sighed.
"Shenlang's strength has far surpassed yours. If you continue to sink, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to improve your strength in this lifetime. It will be even more difficult for you to catch up with him or even defeat him."
Hearing Jing Weizhuang's words, He Tianxing's face turned gloomy.
"Master, I …"
"Tianxing, remember, it's not scary to be born in the same era as a genius. What you are afraid of is that you don't have the courage to face it. If the younger generation in this era is mediocre, no matter how talented you are and how strong you are, the future generations will not think of you as outstanding.
However, being born in the same era as a genius, even if you are not outstanding, the future generations will still recognize you as a genius. "
Jing Weizhuang interrupted He Tianxing and said sternly.
After hearing Jing Weizhuang's words, He Tianxing, who had been crestfallen, could not help but be shocked. His gloomy eyes gradually regained some light.
"Master's teachings are correct. Heavenstar understands."
Seeing He Tianxing's reignited fighting spirit, Jing Weizhuang nodded and smiled. He Tianxing's talent was not bad. Although he was not as good as those monstrous geniuses from the 21 major forces, he was still considered a top genius.
Moreover, He Tianxing was born with an extremely high talent for the sword. As long as he cultivated step by step, it was not impossible for him to advance to the Void Refining Stage in the future.
The reason why Qingcheng School was known as one of the three major forces in the Eastern Region was that it had a powerhouse at the Void Training Stage.
Many Insightful Emptiness Realm Experts appeared in the Great Battle of Martial City because the people involved in the battle were the super forces of the Zhenwu Continent. Thus, the appearance of so many Insightful Emptiness Realm Experts was not unexpected.
However, for a mediocre force like Qingcheng School, having a master at the Void Training Stage was already a good thing.
In the vast Eastern Region, the population alone was about one billion, and three out of ten of them were Martial Artists. With so many Martial Artists competing on the same stage, there were very few Martial Artists who could enter the Emptiness Realm, and it was even more difficult for those who could cultivate to the Void Refinement Realm.
For Jing Weizhuang to give He Tianxing such a high evaluation, it meant that he valued him very much.
Buzz!!!
Just as the two of them were about to walk out of the canyon, a large shadow suddenly appeared in the sky. A huge rock fell from the sky, causing the air to buzz due to the friction.
Jing Weizhuang grabbed the rock with his hand, flew up from the horse with He Tianxing, and retreated backward.
Boom!!!
The entrance of the canyon was blocked by the huge rock. However, before Jing Weizhuang and He Tianxing could think about it, another huge rock fell behind them.
Jing Weizhuang lightly tapped his feet and rushed forward again with He Tianxing, narrowly avoiding the huge boulder that was about to smash them.
"Hehe, Master Jing, you're in such a good mood. You're trying so hard to enlighten such a good-for-nothing disciple. If it were me, I would have slapped him to death. What's the use of keeping such a good-for-nothing disciple?"
A beautiful figure wearing the Netherworld Royal Robe and Houtu's mask appeared on the huge rock. She covered her mouth and laughed coquettishly.
Seeing Houtu, Jing Weizhuang's pupils could not help but shrink.
"Hades."
At this moment, a figure appeared on the huge rock at the entrance of the canyon.
The figure was very tall and emitted a violent aura, giving people endless pressure.
"Soul Reaper, Ox-head."
Houtu clearly saw the fear in Jing Weizhuang's eyes. Then, Houtu laughed mockingly.
"Master Jing, you seem to be very scared. This is not how a master of a sect should behave. "
Jing Weizhuang did not care about Houtu's mockery. He squeezed out an ugly smile and said, "Master Hades, why are you blocking my way?"
Hades's strength was terrifying. Anyone who had heard about the Battle of Martial City would know about it.
Not to mention that the person standing in front of him was a senior member of Hades, Houtu, even if it was a little boy in the Acquired Realm??? Thunder? Jealousy? Mu Yuan?
If he did not handle it well, it would probably lead to the destruction of his sect.
He did not think that he was qualified to be arrogant in front of Hades just because he was one of the three forces in the Eastern Region. He was afraid that even the 21 forces would have to be cautious when facing Hades.
Houtu was surprised by Jing Weizhuang's attitude. Then, he smiled meaningfully. Sure enough, people who could become the master of a sect were not simple. Jing Weizhuang was able to judge the situation and put down his dignity as the master of a sect to talk to him in a humble voice. He indeed had the temperament of a fierce and ambitious person.
"It's not a big deal. It's just that the Emperor ordered me to bring your head back. What do you think? Master Jing, do you want to do it yourself or should I do it? "
As soon as Houtu finished speaking, a sword light flashed.
A sword light suddenly lit up. Jing Weizhuang held the Unparalleled Sword and instantly attacked Houtu.
When Houtu appeared, Jing Weizhuang already had a premonition. Just now, he spoke humbly just to test Hades's attitude, hoping that he would let them go because of his respect.
But now that Houtu had made it clear, Jing Weizhuang did not wait for his death and immediately took the initiative to attack.
As for what He Tianxing would do without the Matchless Sword, it was not something Jing Weizhuang could control.
Even a husband and wife would fly away in the face of disaster, let alone a master and disciple who were not related by blood.
Jing Weizhuang gently waved the Matchless Sword in his hand forward. Suddenly, the Matchless Sword seemed to pass through space and instantly arrived in front of Houtu.
Jing Weizhuang was also an expert of the Void Transformation Stage. Moreover, he was at the late stage of the Void Transformation Stage. His strength was not ordinary, so Houtu was not careless.
The moment Jing Weizhuang drew his sword, Houtu instantly soared into the sky.
As soon as Houtu flew up, the boulder under his feet instantly exploded. Gravel shot in all directions like bullets, riddling the cliffs on both sides of the canyon with thousands of holes.
Buzz!!!
A slender long sword instantly appeared in Houtu's hand. While still in the air, he swung the sword at Jing Weizhuang.
The sword Qi swept across the sky and instantly arrived in front of Jing Weizhuang.
Jing Weizhuang roared angrily. He lightly tapped his feet and dodged Houtu's sword Qi.
Boom!!!
The ground was instantly blasted open by Houtu's sword Qi.
He Tianxing was already on alert when he saw the two fighting. When Houtu's sword Qi fell, He Tianxing jumped up and flew up the cliff.
"Get down!"
Suddenly, Chakravarti Wisdom King appeared in front of He Tianxing and swung his fist fiercely.
This fist carried the roar of a dragon and elephant.
Bang!!!
He Tianxing was in no hurry to dodge. He could only block with his hands in front of his chest. But how could he block Chakravarti Wisdom King's fist?
Unsurprisingly, He Tianxing's body smashed into the ground like a cannonball.
Puff!!!
Although He Tianxing tried his best to reduce the impact, he still landed solidly on the ground.
