After so many years, this pair of the most famous Brothers in the history of the Cultivation world met at such a close distance for the first time, and they were fighting over the ownership of the Sword Formation of Aoyama.
This was a very symbolic scene.
After a long while, a crackling sound suddenly burst out in the sky, as if wet firewood was being ignited.
The flying swords on the surface of the huge sword gradually flew away, like the skin of a wall being peeled off. Then, they scattered faster and faster until they turned into a rain of swords and returned to the ground one after another.
Seeing this scene, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
"You can only influence a small part of Aoyama."
Jing Jiu pulled back his right hand and said something meaningful to Yin San. Then he added, "But you are still as good at scaring people as before."
He was referring to how Yin San had kept Bai Zhenren at bay for a while.
"As long as I can scare him off." Yin San wiped the bamboo flute with his sleeve and said, "Don't forget that I saved your life today."
Jing Jiu said calmly, "You have saved me many times before."
Yin San lifted his head and demanded while looking at Jing Jiu, "So you can disobey me all the time?"
Jing Jiu said, "I'm your Young Brother, not your disciple."
Yin San was taken aback a bit, but he seemed to think that this remark was very clever. Then he laughed out loud and said to Qing 'er, "Shall we go?"
It was unclear when Qing 'er had come to the square of the royal palace. She was flying by Jing Jiu's side. Hearing Yin San's words, she shook her head without giving it much thought.
Yin San sighed for some reason and walked toward the outside of the royal palace.
Bu Qiuxiao and the swordsmen of other sects were about to do something when they heard the sound of the flute again. The flying swords of Aoyama on the ground rose up along with Yin San's footsteps, whistling and dancing in the air, making crisp sword sounds.
Jing Jiu had said that Yin San could only influence a small portion of Aoyama, but he would still be able to influence some.
Accompanied by the melodious sound of the flute, under the protection of the Aoyama Sword Formation, Yin San left the palace and disappeared into the ruins.
Zen Master and Bu Qiuxiao exchanged a look and shook their heads, indicating that they couldn't find any trace of him.
Was this the realm of a successful Immortal Transformation?
Thinking of all this, Zen Master felt even more worried. Today, the Aoyama Sect and the Zhongzhou School had formed a blood feud; Chaotian would be in turmoil, and Taiping Zhenren would be isolated from the mortal world … The mortal world would have many troubles from now on.
…
…
The residents seeking refuge could be seen everywhere outside Zhaoge City; the cries had never ceased.
The Zhao Garden had been opened long ago and had taken in many people.
Jing Shang and Zhao Jue Ye pulled back their gazes from Zhaoge City and eyed each other, seeing the fear in each other's eyes.
"Looks like we can bring them back."
"Yeah."
Many refugees headed southward after leaving Zhaoge City, including many carriages of wealthy clans. Under the supervision and protection of the army of the Imperial Court, no chaos occurred.
One of the carriages looked very wide. Nobody would have guessed that it was because a golden pheasant was squatting in it. The tail of the golden pheasant was indeed a bit too long.
Yin San took the green wine from the Great Grandmaster of the Mysterious Dark Sect and took a sip of it. He sighed regretfully while stroking the tail of the golden pheasant.
He didn't sigh because the world wasn't in chaos; it was because the world would be in chaos eventually. What he felt pitiful about was that Bai Zhenren had retreated decisively in the end.
"It's indeed a pity." The Great Grandmaster of the Mysterious Dark Sect poured himself a cup of wine and licked it with his tongue, but he was still not used to it. "Otherwise, she would have died in Zhaoge City today," he said with furrowed eyebrows.
…
…
Seeing Yin San disappear on the other side of the royal palace, Jing Jiu turned around and walked back to the stone steps and sat down. He took out Ada from his sleeve and touched him with his palm, saying, "It's a pity."
Ada was useless in the fight against the replica of the Fairy Lady Bai Ren; but if Jing Jiu wanted to kill Bai Zhenren, Ada could sneak-attack him at the critical moment.
As for how to kill Bai Zhenren … Jing Jiu had shown that he had the ability to sneak-attack him when he and Yin San fought for the control of the Sword Formation of Aoyama.
Ada meowed once innocently in Jing Jiu's chest, thinking that it was fortunate that Bai Zhenren had left; otherwise, how many lives would he have left?
As he was about to complain a little more, he suddenly found that Lian Sanyue was looking at him with interest. He couldn't help but roll his eyes and pass out.
Though he hadn't met Lian Sanyue a few times, he had cursed her many times over the past hundreds of years. As such, he didn't dare look her in the eyes.
"I've reminded you to be careful at the critical moment," said Jing Jiu while looking at Bai Zao.
Jing Jiu had said this to her when they bade farewell to each other in the Guocheng Temple. She didn't know what he meant at the time, but she found out that this was where he meant it.
Lian Sanyue shot him a glance, thinking that his voice could be quite gentle as well.
Bai Zao didn't look at her. Holding his knees, he looked at the flying swords and the corpses of his colleagues lying on the ground in the square, his face pale, looking quite pitiful.
If her body was really taken over, then she would die.
It was an irreversible process.
The reason she was still alive was because of Lian Sanyue and Jing Jiu.
In all of Chaotian, these two were the only ones who could do it, and they had paid a high price for it.
Lian Sanyue pulled Zhao Layue into her bosom and said, "Take a nap if you're tired."
This statement seemed to have a magical effect. Bai Zao felt a bit more relaxed and closed his eyes. His eyelashes fluttered a few times before he fell asleep.
"She had been sleeping during the six years we were in the snowland."
Having said that, Jing Jiu shot a glance at Lian Sanyue.
She had been sleeping over the years as well.
Lian Sanyue smiled, but didn't say anything.
The two of them sat on the stone steps in Silence, saying nothing more.
The seemingly magnificent fight had actually lasted only a few moments. The morning sun was still in the east, obscured by the clouds.
As time passed, the sun had gradually moved to the middle of the sky. It was noon now.
The dark clouds were still obscuring the sun, but the holes made by the flying swords of Aoyama were still there.
Countless rays of light shone down from those holes, shining on the square of the royal palace.
The ground was covered with swords and corpses.
It was an eerie scene.
It was eerily beautiful.
…
…
After a long while, the snowflakes suddenly fell down from those holes.
Yuan Qijing arrived.
Seeing the flying swords and corpses all over the ground, he remained silent for a while before he turned to Lian Sanyue and said, "Thanks a lot."
Lian Sanyue waved her hand casually, saying, "I'm just bored after sleeping for too long, so I want to fight a few times. I didn't do it for your Aoyama Sect."
Yuan Qijing remained silent, thinking that since she did it for his Senior Master, Aoyama Sect had to remember her kindness. Then, he said to Jing Jiu, "I'll stay here. You two can leave now."
The Zhongzhou School had suffered a great loss that day, and it was chaotic all the time. It was unlikely that any trouble would arise in a short time. It was enough for him to stay in Zhaoge City.
Jing Jiu stood up. Lian Sanyue placed Bai Zao in his bosom, ready to leave together with him.
