The carriage safely drove out of Liancheng City and headed towards a lonely and quiet villa.
There was a rugged road under the villa. The three of them followed along but they were still worried.
Sure enough, when all the 'escorts' arrived at the mountain path, four young heroes with large swords on their backs stood in the middle of the path. They wore long robes that fluttered in the wind and had jade belts. Their brows were like swords and their eyes were like stars, giving off an awe-inspiring aura!
"Everyone, don't disguise yourselves. I already know your true identities."
"Evil Sword Sect, anyone who sees us will be killed!"
"We will enforce justice on behalf of the heavens and send you to reincarnation!"
"They must be escorting something that offends the heavens!"
The four Great Swordsmen had an aura of righteousness. The swords on their backs exuded an awe-inspiring aura. Even though they had not unsheathed their swords, they had already created a huge pressure on the disguised Evil Sword Sect members.
"This is troublesome. These four are obviously King Stage. They are most likely disciples from some Immortal Sword Sect. They are here to train." Ling Song slapped his forehead.
Seeing that the Evil Sword Sect disciples were about to return to their base camp, some famous Righteous Sect suddenly appeared.
The Evil Sword Sect of today was really regressing. Could they not be so easily discovered by others? If they were treated as training babies by the Righteous Sects, would they still exist in the future?
"Hahaha, ignorant brats. You are still wet behind the ears and yet you think you are invincible. I think your master has never taught you not to provoke the Evil Sword Sect. Otherwise, you will not even have a corpse left!" A voice came from the direction of the villa.
At this moment, a man dressed in a yellow robe flew over. Before he arrived, his crimson Evil Sword arrived first!
The Evil Sword pierced towards the four Great Swordsmen, bringing along a blood-red sword wind. The sword wind was demonic, like the wails of ghosts and howls of wolves. Just by brushing past them, they felt as though they were being skinned alive.
The four young traveling swordsmen immediately drew their swords to parry, but even though they managed to parry the sharp evil swords, they were unable to parry the evil sword wind. The sword wind tore their skin and flesh apart, causing them to bleed profusely.
"Half God!" One of the Great Swordsmen revealed a look of horror. Seeing the terrifying strength displayed by his opponent, he no longer had the will to continue fighting.
Sure enough, in just a few moves, the four righteous Sword Masters were defeated. They fell to the ground, badly mutilated. The yellow-robed Evil Sword Master even severed all the tendons in their arms and legs, making them lose the ability to escape.
The faces of the four men were filled with humiliation and annoyance. They were annoyed that they shouldn't have acted so rashly without investigating anything.
Demigod rank Evil Swordmaster, no matter how many of them there were, they would still be killed.
"Let's bring it back and see if we can use it to refine some Human Bone Pill. They have tempered their Swordmaster physique for over twenty years, so there should be some medicinal effects!" The yellow robed Evil Swordmaster let out a hoarse laugh.
…
On the other side, Ling Song heaved a sigh of relief.
"Luckily this yellow robed Evil Sword Master came in time, or else we would have to force ourselves to chase these four idiots away. That would be equivalent to exposing ourselves." Ling Song said.
"They are most likely disciples of the Earth Sword Sect. They are all brawn but no brains." Linghu Ling said.
"The current situation is still alright. With a Demigod rank Evil Sword Master receiving them, it means that we are very close to the Evil Sword Sect." Zhu Minglang nodded.
Those who practice the sword are more or less … rash!
Practicing the sword is a long and dry process. Zhu Minglang was very clear on this point. Most of the time, one must comprehend and train by oneself. If one wants to achieve something, one must be isolated from the rest of the world and focus on the sword. However, this kind of training method meant that many Swordsmen's thoughts were too simple. Furthermore, the overly righteous ideas passed down by their fellow disciples could easily harm the cultivators who left the mountain.
"Is there a lot of stubborn Swordsmen in Yuheng?" Zhu Minglang casually asked.
Linghu Ling was not happy.
These stubborn Swordsmen, did they count her in as well?
"Quite a lot. Long robes, carrying swords, chivalrous and brainless … they are the standard of a Yuheng Shenjiang Swordsman." Ling Song immediately commented.
"Those who pursue the sword path will naturally not be as cunning as you!" Linghu Ling said.
"Since the heavens have given us wisdom, it would be a pity if we do not use it."
"Yes, it is a pity."
Linghu Ling could not win against the two of them. Furthermore, she did not need to protect the four Swordsmen from the Earth Sword Sect. She had to admit that Yuheng Shenjiang was indeed filled with such Swordsmen. However, this was not a bad thing. At least it was better than being surrounded by cunning villains no matter where they went in Shenjiang.
…
The yellow robed Evil Sword Master took up the role of escorting them.
Indeed, after passing through a forest, they saw the entrance of the Evil Sword Sect in this green mountain.
From the outside, this mountain gate did indeed look like a small sect. There were too many sects like this in the Yuheng Divine Region. Therefore, if an outsider accidentally stepped into this place and saw such a sect, they might even praise it and say that it was truly a mountain spirit.
Evil Sword Sect, it did not mean that they had the word "evil" written on their faces. Their attire was also no different from a normal Swordsman. If one had to say that the yellow robed Evil Sword Master looked kind, it would be fine. This was why it was not as simple as it seemed to be …
"Let me go in and take a look. I will remove the restrictions that could easily detect our presence." Ling Song said.
Ling Song had the ability to steal spirits.
Since it was the entrance of the Evil Sword Sect, there would definitely be some experts stationed inside. The biggest taboo for this operation was to alert the enemy. This was because once the enemy sensed them, it would be difficult for them to find all the Silver Xi Shards. Their time would also be delayed.
Zhu Minglang and Linghu Ling waited in the forest at the foot of the mountain.
The sun was already setting in the west. Looking at the sky in the south, they could even see the majestic mountain line of Tian Shu Shenjiang. It was hidden behind the hazy fog.
Not too long later, Ling Song returned.
"There are not many experts. However, not all the Silver Xi Shards are up there. I suggest we wait for a few more days." Ling Song said confidently.
"This is not their headquarters?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"Yes, it is just a small sect. However, if we follow the yellow robed Evil Sword Master, we should be able to find their sect. I heard their conversation."
"We need to be patient." Zhu Minglang nodded.
"I also heard something interesting. I think Fairy Linghu would not have thought of it." Ling Song suddenly laughed.
Linghu Ling looked at Ling Song and waited for him to continue.
"Fairy Linghu, do you know what happened to the four Earth Sword Masters that were captured alive?" Ling Song asked.
"Dead?" Linghu Ling asked.
"They were released. It was the yellow robed Evil Sword Master who released them personally." Ling Song said.
"He crippled them, captured them alive and then released them?" Linghu Ling was puzzled. She muttered to herself, "However, I also felt that it was weird. Based on the Evil Sword Sect's style of doing things, they rarely leave anyone alive. I thought that the four Swordsman warriors were definitely dead."
Linghu Ling's way of doing things was righteous. However, as an immortal, she was not so kind as to help mortals who were seeking their own deaths. Especially when her appearance could affect the great matter of seizing the Silver Xi Shards.
"That's why, there's something fishy going on here. From what I see, the Evil Sword Sect's base camp must be in a very special place. Let's wait and see!" Ling Song laughed. He seemed to be more and more interested in the Evil Sword Sect.
…
On the third day, all the Silver Xi Shards that were transferred to this small sect were exchanged for all the boxes.
The previous tea chests were all burned in the mountain gate, and then a very thick black wooden chest was used. These black wooden chests were sealed with magic, and it was abnormally difficult to open them.
Then, the black wooden box was covered with a cloth embroidered with the symbol of a brown sword …
And this brown sword symbol was exactly the same as the embroidery on the robes of the four Earth Sword Sect Swordsmen.
The escort's clothes were all changed. They were all porters.
And the yellow robed Evil Sword Master also changed his attire. In a flash, he was dressed properly. His status was high. One look and you could tell that he was a Sword Honorable from a famous sect!
Most importantly, this Sword Honorable was still wearing the Earth Sword Sect's attire!
"The Evil Sword Sect became the Earth Sword Sect in an instant??" Zhu Minglang saw that the group of people had changed their attire. Then, they carried boxes of items out. His face was filled with astonishment.
"Hehe, so, this Earth Sword Sect …"
…
The three of them followed behind. The yellow robed Evil Sword Master personally led the way. This time, they walked through the streets. Every time they passed by a town, they would rest in a very proper inn. Occasionally, when they met other famous sects, they would greet each other, showing the Earth Sword Sect's magnanimity!
Very quickly, they approached the Earth Sword Sect City.
This Earth Sword Sect City was one of the biggest cities in the south of Yuheng Shenjiang.
This group of Evil Sword Sect members led by the yellow-robed Evil Sword Master swaggered into the Earth Sword Sect's city. They entered the sect's Sword Palace and placed the black wooden boxes containing the Silver Sun Shards into their sect's Sword Palace's treasure pavilion …
"Master, was the journey smooth?" The grey-haired man who was in charge of the treasury asked.
"It was quite smooth, but we met a few of Old Chen's foolish disciples. They probably saw us when we were robbing others, so they followed us all the way and almost got into a fight. Luckily, I arrived in time and cut off their tendons. Then, I found a chance to let them go. " The yellow robed Evil Sword Master obviously had another identity. He was the Sword Honorable of the Earth Sword Sect. Looking at the way he spoke and the way he spoke, he was indeed kind and amiable. He gave off the feeling of a righteous elder.
"Those who should be killed, even if they are the disciples of acquaintances …" The grey-haired man who was in charge of the treasury said.
"Don't worry. They can't recognize us. We've been here before. Plus, they probably have some magic items on them. Once they die, there will be traces left behind. The Sword Immortals won't just sit and watch."
