Yan Shiyi only arrived in Tianjing on the sixth day of the new year.
Speaking of which, he massacred many people at Frozen Jade Cliff, publicly occupied it, and changed its name to Purple Mountain. This heavenly paradise had always been viewed as something in the hands of the imperial court. It was only temporarily lent to the Blood Coagulation Venerable for his contributions in protecting the world. Now that it was forcefully occupied, he naturally had to think of a way to take it back.
The newly established Purple Mountain struggled with the Dragon Emperor Manor for a period of time. Many people died, and Yan Shiyi's portrait was hung high up on the wanted list.
A long time had passed since then. No one wanted to exchange his head for a bounty, because regardless of whether it was assassinations, ambushes, or natural disasters, none of them could do anything to him. The Dragon Emperor's Residence gradually let him do as he pleased because the Purple Mountain was simply too far away and beyond their reach.
After a long time, the wanted list was no different.
But now that he was in Tianjing, things were different. Originally, because of Li Ku — the walking million soul stones — many people from all walks of life gathered here. These people didn't have any other abilities, and only liked to do despicable and shameless things.
A pitch-black blade, with a pitch-black hilt and a pitch-black scabbard, had a bewitching length that seemed to symbolize death.
A bewitching laughter slowly spread. With a sudden cold sound, the blade seemed to have been unsheathed and returned to its sheath. A waiter who tried to use an innocent person's life to poison him slid down together with the innocent person.
The innocent person's hand held a poisoned dagger that flickered with a green flower. Before he could pull it out, he lost all signs of life.
"Yan Shiyi, you killed my brother. I'm here for revenge!"
Below the restaurant, on a very high ground, a group of people pushed dozens of handcarts, on which there were wooden barrels filled with kerosene. The handcarts were pushed to the main hall of the restaurant, and the people pushing the handcarts rushed into the restaurant, attacking Yan Shiyi fearlessly.
They fell one by one, but it didn't hinder other arrangements.
Fire arrows filled the sky and ignited the oil barrels. A large amount of kerosene exploded at the same time, producing a thunderous sound. The entire restaurant was blasted to smithereens. Regardless of whether they were alive or dead, they were all burned to ashes by the fire that soared into the sky.
"Success! Yan Shiyi is finally dead! "
A large number of martial artists came out from their hiding places and couldn't help but cheer. None of these people were Yan Shiyi's friends. Yan Shiyi didn't need friends either. He only had enemies and dogs.
Now, these petty thieves who couldn't even be considered as his opponents had disrupted his peace. All of them deserved to die.
Bathed in the light of the fire, an inverted purple flower strangely appeared. In an instant, it was like a celestial maiden scattering flowers, shooting out purple saber lights that filled the sky. Horrified and miserable screams spread in an instant. Severed limbs filled the sky.
A bewitching of laughter danced in this scene, as if they were admiring their own creation.
Fear spread even more. Even many of the innocent people wanted to grow an extra pair of legs and escape from this terrifying land of death.
"Yan Shiyi of Yan Shiyi!"
Of Yan Dragon shouted, "Yan Yan Shiyi of of of of of Shiyi. of Yan of"., "Yan of Dragon" (Dragon of of of of Shan of of of Yan) of.
A black star flickered in the void and grew bigger. Finally, it struck at Yan Shiyi like a bolt of lightning.
It was also a saber, a long hilted saber. It seemed like it was going to completely split the space where Yan Shiyi was.
At this moment, Yan Shiyi's figure appeared under the purple flower. "How unfortunate. I can clearly hear the scream of fear in your soul. "Accompanied by a faint chuckle, his slender fingers reached for the saber hilt.
Clang!
The black saber was unsheathed. It was like a mourning song that came from far away.
Countless streaks of energy interweaved and solidified into a crescent purple moon. It tore through the black star like it was nothing, causing the blood of the attacker to spray into the sky. A great expert of the fifth realm didn't even have time to feel fear before he died forever.
The purple moon didn't stop. It headed towards the Eastern Palace, destroying countless buildings along the way. It exploded in the sky above the crown prince's residence. Countless experts inside and outside of the imperial city were alarmed. They all ran over to investigate. They only saw powder with a faint purple glow in the sky, forming a purple halo and a few big words.
One of them couldn't help but read, "August 15th, golden autumn night, peak of Tianjing, purple hair and black saber. What, what does this mean? "
"Idiot, you still don't understand?" Another said coldly. "Yan Shiyi, that madman, changed the date of the duel without permission!"
Suddenly, footsteps were heard. It was Ji Wuji who walked out from the veranda.
Everyone quickly parted to make way for him. They bowed respectfully and cupped their fists. "Greetings, Your Highness!"
Ji Wuji looked up silently. His eyes were astonishingly bright. A rare smile appeared on his cold face. "Yan Shiyi, not bad. Pass down my order. Before the duel, no one is allowed to make a move. "
"Yes!" Someone ran to inform them.
Princess Duanyang frowned. "This Yan Shiyi is so annoying. First in October, then in August. He does it whenever he wants. What does Brother Crown Prince think he can do? What a bastard. Brother Crown Prince, why don't you just let the Dragon Emperor Residence deal with him. Let's see how long he can last! "
"No!" Ji Wuji said sternly. "I won't forgive anyone who dares to obstruct us." He flicked his sleeves and left.
Princess Duanyang stomped her feet. She felt a little resentful and wronged. Then, she left the Crown Prince Residence. A moment later, she brought many people back. They sprayed water on the purple moon, trying to wash it away. However, it didn't work. She stomped her feet again in anger. Finally, she returned to her Duanyang Residence.
This purple moon hung in the sky above the Crown Prince Residence. It only disappeared after three days. At that time, the whole city was in an uproar. Although Ji Wuji said that no one was allowed to make a move on Yan Shiyi, Yan Shiyi seemed to have disappeared from the world after he sent out the new letter of challenge. No one had seen any trace of him since.
However, this didn't hinder people's enthusiasm. All the major gambling houses opened stalls to bet on the outcome of the duel. They bet on how many moves the two sides would lose.
The news of the duel being brought forward spread like wildfire. A large number of Jianghu people rushed over.
On the ninth day of the New Year, the ship Yan Li and the others rented arrived at the Dragon Emperor Realm. When they were about to arrive at Mount Myoboku, they heard a loud shout on the deck.
Su Xiaojian and Feng Jiu looked at each other. They both guessed that it came from Yan Li's room. When they were about to check, they saw Yan Li yawning. His face was sleepy, but his eyes were especially bright.
"Is this the old residence of the Green Lotus Sword Fairy?" he asked.
"Mount Myoboku? Yes," Su Xiaojian said.
"Ah!" Yan Li understood. "No wonder! I haven't slept these days. Until just now, when I was at the critical moment of my deduction, I felt that there was still a gap between me and the mysterious realm. Suddenly, there was the Sanskrit singing of the Great Dao. It surprised me. Fortunately, I reacted in time and grasped that opportunity. Finally, I completed the enlightenment of the Green Lotus Sword Song. "
"What?" Su Xiaojian was even more shocked. For thousands of years, no matter how profound the swordsman was, he could only comprehend to the entry level. Yan Li actually wanted to use it to enlighten others without saying anything.
The others who were born and raised here also looked at Yan Li in shock. Only little Fu 'er was still playing with her little Lu Lv and didn't pay attention to them.
These days, she didn't bother anyone anymore. When Yan Li saw this, he wanted to find a master to raise horses as soon as possible. But he said, "I took advantage of the real name."
Hearing this, everyone felt relieved. After all, a first-grade sword master hadn't been seen for thousands of years.
Su Xiaojian said, "Are you preparing for the third enlightenment?"
"I'm going to borrow a cave in Phoenix Hall." Yan Li thought that he had to go anyway.
Su Xiaojian said, "Don't rush. Drag it out for a while. Before the Demon-Buster Conference, the Dao Court will open the Guangwei Forest. If you go there and enlighten, the effect will be multiplied. You might even gain something unexpected."
"The Guangwei Forest?" Yan Li asked.
Su Xiaojian said, "Every disciple who participates in the conference has one chance, and it's a lifetime one. Even if you participate in the next conference, you won't have another chance. The Guangwei Forest has the Infinite Mystery Array that the Seven Friends of Guangwei left behind. It can greatly increase your power of comprehension. With your talent, you might be able to see the Purple Mansion in advance and speed up your breakthrough. "
"The Dao Court is actually so generous?" When Yan Li fought Wine and Meat Monk and his brother, he had already seen the Purple Mansion, giving birth to the sword spirit that only those who cultivated "Taibai" alone could have. It was like an extension of his consciousness, and it was very magical. So this was not very tempting to him.
"Although the Guangwei Forest is on the Dragon Head Mountain, many of the Nine Great Confucian orthodoxy were indirectly passed down by the Seven Friends of Guangwei. They all have status, and the Dao Court does not dare to take over the treasured land for themselves."
Su Xiaojian smiled, seeming to have noticed Yan Li's disapproval. He then added, "Not only does the Guang Wei Forest have the Seven Friends of Guang Wei purposely left behind for future generations to comprehend, which can be observed with the help of the Xuanji Formation, it also has the sword will left behind by the most powerful Divine Sword Immortal, Bai Kongxue. Our grandmaster obtained enlightenment from this sword will and perfected the Hidden Sword Log."
This time, Yan Li could not help but be tempted. "Then I will wait until the Guangwei Forest to enlighten me."
"However, due to the huge burden of operating the Profound Mystery Array, there are conditions to enter the Guangwei Forest." Su Xiaojian smiled.
"What conditions?" Yan Li asked.
"It has always been based on talent. You don't have to worry," Su Xiaojian said.
Yan Li was a first-class sword master. In terms of talent, it would be difficult for him to lose.
As they spoke, they arrived at the port. Li Xiang Jun and the others were already waiting to receive them.
"Dragon Head."
When Yan Li got off the boat, he smiled at her and said, "Fu 'er got a horse recently. You take care of her. Take advantage of this time to find a master who is good at raising horses. When it's time to move, she can stay here."
Li Xiang Jun accepted the order and left. Li Kuofu always accompanied them as a guard.
Yan Li then turned to the young master of the hut, Yan Chaoyang's wife. He only saw that the latter's haggard face still had traces of tears. He sighed and said, "I will definitely save him. Don't worry."
"Mm." Zhuge Xiaoshan controlled his emotions and said in a low voice, "Master is waiting. He has prepared some wine."
Everyone followed her. When they arrived at the hut, Mount Ba Jun was already waiting. Both sides greeted each other. Only then did he recognize Su Xiaojian. He was very excited. "It's actually Xiaojian, Peak Lord. Chaoyang has really met a benefactor. There is hope."
"Rest assured, Mountain Man. I will definitely do my best," Su Xiaojian said.
"Come, please take a seat."
After three rounds of wine, thinking about how Yan Chaoyang was still suffering, no one was in the mood to continue drinking. Thus, they started to discuss about the operation.
