After such a big event, the College's disciples were all uneasy. They'd received news that the Qin palace was holding a banquet. The king wanted to order the strong cultivators of the Eastern Barren Territory to attack the College Cottage.
If a war of this level really broke out, regardless of the outcome, there would definitely be countless deaths.
However, the Cottage was as quiet as usual.
Ye Futian, on the other hand, wasn't so calm. After all, he was the cause of this.
"Second Sister, I heard that the Qin palace is holding a banquet today. The king might order the strong cultivators of the Eastern Barren Territory to attack the Cottage." Ye Futian found Zhuge Hui and asked. She was too calm. She was still swinging. She was beautiful but Ye Futian wasn't in the mood to appreciate it.
Smiling, Zhuge Hui said to Ye Futian, "Junior told you to cultivate. Don't worry, they won't fight for now."
Ye Futian scratched his head, confused. "How do you know?"
"The Qin Dynasty wants to attack the Cottage together. Master is too lazy to find anyone. Who's going to take care of it?" Zhuge Hui asked. Ye Futian scratched his head. "Second Sister?"
"I don't have time. You still have First Brother." Zhuge Hui rolled her eyes at him and said, "That year, the Fuyun Sword Clan insulted Master, so Eldest Senior Brother went to the Fuyun Sword Clan directly. Now, those people want to attack the Cottage. Your Eldest Senior Brother can just go to any force and all alliances will be useless. The Cottage is not the Liu Kingdom. The Qin Dynasty does not have absolute confidence and wants to drag some people down with them. Those people are not stupid. It's just that your Eldest Senior Brother hasn't left the mountain for too long and people tend to forget."
Hearing her words, Ye Futian relaxed a little. Big Senior Brother should have improved over the years. In a war of this level, unless those forces had the confidence to destroy the Cottage in one go, if it was like what Second Senior Sister said, who wouldn't be afraid of Big Senior Brother when he went to any force?
"First Brother should be able to defeat the leader of the Fuyun Sword Clan now, right?" Ye Futian asked curiously. That year, it was a tie. The Cottage disciples were always more talented.
"Your third brother should know First Brother's strength better than anyone else. Since he killed Prince Qin, then he died for nothing," Zhuge Hui said. "Your third brother probably wanted to avenge the Liu Kingdom."
"Oh." Ye Futian nodded lightly and sighed inwardly. The Liu Kingdom was indeed pitiful, and there was no way for him to take revenge for now.
"What kind of person is Big Brother?" Ye Futian muttered to himself. Big Brother was the only person he hadn't met in the Cottage.
Zhuge Hui's eyelashes fluttered, then she smiled and said, "A person like a rock."
"Like a rock?" Ye Futian was confused.
"Yes." Zhuge Hui smiled and nodded. "He has a bad temper and is very stubborn."
"Who's talking bad about me?"
There seemed to be a voice from afar. Zhuge Hui smiled and looked up in a certain direction. Obviously, she had already sensed it.
A few figures walked over. The one in the lead was dressed in black. It was the Sword Saint from the Qin Dynasty. Beside him were Luo Fan, Xue Ye, and Yi Xiaoshi.
"Eldest Senior Brother, did I say something wrong?" Zhuge Hui smiled.
"Alright, you're always right." The Sword Saint smiled. His deep eyes were filled with gentleness. Facing his junior brothers and sisters, he was no longer as sharp as when he was in the Qin Dynasty.
Ye Futian looked at the figure that appeared. This was the first time he saw the Big Brother and also the first time he saw Second Senior Sister not as strong as before in front of a Cottage disciple. Their eyes and simple conversation made him feel like they were brother and sister.
No matter how many legends there were outside or how legendary they were, they would still be like ordinary people in front of their family.
"Little Brother." The Sword Saint looked at Ye Futian and greeted him with a smile.
"Hello, Big Brother." Ye Futian smiled brightly and said, "When I was chatting with Senior Sister just now, I was wondering what kind of person First Senior Brother was. Now that I see you, First Senior Brother, you are indeed handsome, wise, brilliant, charming, and unparalleled …"
"…" The Sword Saint blinked at Ye Futian and then laughed heartily. "No wonder I heard that your Second Senior Sister spoils you. Impressive."
Beside the Sword Saint, Yi Xiaoshi was depressed. It was also the first time they met, but why was the difference so huge? He admired this guy's shamelessness.
"Big Brother." Just then, someone jogged over. Beitang Xing 'er looked at the legend of the Cottage and was a bit nervous. After all, it was her first time seeing him.
"I heard from Dongliu that the Master has a pretty junior sister. These guys on the mountain are lucky," the Sword Saint said, smiling. The Sword Saint smiled. Beitang Xing 'er blushed when she heard the Eldest Senior Brother praise her. "I'll go get Third Senior Brother."
With that, she turned and jogged away.
"Fifth, go cook. Fourth, help. Seventh, get some good wine," Zhuge Hui ordered. Everyone nodded and went to work. Then, they looked at Ye Futian with jealousy. This guy had nothing to do …
"Big Brother, you just came from the Qin Dynasty?" Zhuge Hui asked.
"You're smart." The Sword Saint smiled and glanced at Zhuge Hui. "I went to the Qin Dynasty and came to visit you guys. It's my first time seeing you guys."
Beside him, Ye Futian's heart trembled slightly. Big Brother's casual words about going to the Qin Dynasty seemed so casual. But behind it, what kind of grand event was there?
The Qin Dynasty's prince, Qin Ge, had died in Gu Dongliu's hands. The Qin Dynasty wanted to attack the Cottage, so the Cottage's eldest disciple went to the Qin Dynasty just like that. When the Eastern Barren Territory gathered, how bold was this?
It seemed that Second Senior Sister was right. However, Big Brother didn't go to the other forces but the Qin Dynasty.
"Just now, Little Brother was worried that the Eastern Barren Territory would ally against the Cottage," Zhuge Hui said, smiling. "Now, he should be able to relax."
Ye Futian smiled shakily. Since Big Brother went to the Qin Dynasty and came to the Cottage safe and sound, he must've solved some problems.
"They don't have the guts to attack the Cottage directly," the Sword Saint reminded. "But since the Qin Dynasty has declared war, the Eastern Barren Territory won't be peaceful anymore. We must be careful."
"Okay." Zhuge Hui nodded lightly. The hatred was already formed. Even if the Qin Dynasty didn't dare to attack directly, the moment the Qin Dynasty declared war, it was unavoidable. They just didn't dare to use their trump cards and start a war.
"Is there still no news from the Master?" the Sword Saint asked.
"Big Brother, you know the Master. Who knows where he's gotten pretty disciples?" Zhuge Hui was depressed. "It's all that guy's fault for not watching the Master well."
"If the Master wants to escape, do you think the third brother can stop him?" the Sword Saint said. "Don't you know how lazy he is?"
Ye Futian was speechless. Listening to Big Brother and Second Senior Sister's conversation, the Master was really a genius!
"Eldest Senior Brother, you've finally spoken up for me." Gu Dongliu's handsome figure walked over and glanced at Zhuge Hui. Zhuge Hui looked away, too lazy to talk to him.
Seeing the two's small actions, the Sword Saint smiled and shook his head. "You two …"
"How lazy is the Master?" Ye Futian asked curiously.
"He only has so many disciples and only cares about taking them in and not teaching them. How lazy do you think the Master is?" Second Senior Sister said to Ye Futian. Ye Futian was speechless. Before him, the Cottage only had seven disciples and only took in disciples without teaching them … He was indeed lazy.
"Many people in the Eastern Barren Territory still think that the Master wants to unify the Eastern Barren Territory." The Sword Saint shook his head. "It would be great if he had that kind of free time."
Zhuge Hui's eyes sparkled. Only those who truly knew how lazy the Master was would know how ridiculous it was to unify the Eastern Barren Territory.
"How many people from the Eastern Barren Territory have seen the Master? How can they understand the Master's plane? " Gu Dongliu said emotionlessly. Even the top figures in the Eastern Barren Territory didn't dare to say that they understood the Master of the Cottage.
The three of them were probably the ones who knew the Master the best. They also couldn't find him all year round.
As they chatted, the dishes were prepared. Yu Sheng and Loulan Xue also came. This was the first time since Ye Futian came to the mountain that all the Cottage disciples were here.
The atmosphere was relaxed and cozy as usual. Outside, the disciples of the Cottage were all legendary figures. However, in the Cottage, they seemed extremely ordinary and chatted casually.
…
In the outside world, the Sword Saint's arrival at the Qin Dynasty caused a huge uproar. The Qin Dynasty wanted to command all the forces in the Eastern Barren Territory to attack the Cottage but they didn't succeed. The Sword Saint's appearance directly disintegrated the alliance. No one dared to take such a risk and attack.
Ye Futian could feel the blade intent that the Sword Saint had left in the Qin Imperial Palace. With the Sword Saint's current plane, he could already stand at the top of the Eastern Barren Territory. No matter who wanted to go to the Cottage, they had to think clearly about the consequences and whether they could bear the Sword Saint's revenge.
Of course, although they didn't attack the Cottage directly, the Fuyun Sword Clan and Royal Xuan Temple had already agreed to ally with the Qin Dynasty on the spot. This terrifying force was temporarily afraid of the Sword Saint, but they had no way out.
Many days later, in the Ancient Barren World.
In a relic, several disciples of the College were cultivating. Just then, a group of strong cultivators descended. They were from the Qin Dynasty. The leader was Qin Li. He waved his hand and surrounded the people from the College.
"Destroy their cultivation and take them away," Qin Li ordered coldly. Immediately, the people from the Qin Dynasty attacked.
The people around them were shocked and moved to the side. The disciples of the College fought back crazily but soon, they were all destroyed. Then, they were taken away by the people from the Qin Dynasty.
Many people were shocked. As expected, although the Qin Dynasty didn't attack Book Mountain directly, they obviously couldn't let Qin Ge die for no reason as they wanted to become the overlord of the Eastern Barren Territory.
The war came unknowingly.
Then, the Qin Dynasty released the news, asking the College to hand over Liu Feiyang and Liu Chenyu.
