Sui Xie Gu's brows were as long as a white dragon's beard. His tall and sturdy body remained as still as a mountain from the beginning to the end. This kind of action was a result of his hundred years of experience, and also because he dared to challenge Li Chungang and Wang Xianzhi. If he added Hsu Fengnian to the mix, the three champions of Jianghu in the past hundred years had all been challenged by him. When Li Chungang returned from the Demon Slaying Platform, his state of mind was damaged, but Sui Xie Gu did not take advantage of the situation. He still asked about the strongest person, the Two-Sleeved Green Snake that Li Chungang had mastered to the extreme. After that, Wang Xianzhi was at the peak of martial arts. No matter how they fought, he was always the strongest. Unfortunately, it was Yu Groom who received the last half of the sword. This was because Wang Xianzhi wanted to give the final battle to Hsu Fengnian, who was far away in the northwest. However, from the conversation that Green Pao Er heard, Wang Xianzhi was definitely not someone that Sui Xie Gu could defeat. This time, Sui Xie Gu did not enter Beiliang to work for anyone. He wanted to charge and kill the enemy in the battle of Liang Mang. He wanted to compete with Hsu Fengnian, an old man who did not care about riches and fame. Sui Xie Gu was sure that Hsu Fengnian's original reliance on Gao Shulu's physique had disappeared. Therefore, the only thing that could be done was to kill without spilling blood. This was similar to the old master of the Spring Invitation Cottage who was best at talking on paper. However, Sui Xie Gu believed that in today's world, there were at most a handful of idiots like himself who dared to fight with Hsu Fengnian.
Arriving at the right time was better than arriving early. Just as Xu Fengnian was facing off against the old man, Wu Liuding and Cuihua led the Wu clan cavalry into Liangzhou City and arrived at Mount Qingliang. After entering the prince's estate, their path was unimpeded. The hundred-some people abandoned their horses and walked to the other side of Tidehark Lake where the two experts were facing off. These withered swordsmen with long swords on their backs stood in a line. Apart from the sloppy young Sword Crown and the calm female sword attendants, the Qi flow of these ninety-some people was affected. Their tranquil minds began to ripple to varying degrees. Even if the spectators did not comment on the game, they could not help but put themselves in the opponent's shoes. this was even more so for the spectators. As a result, their state of mind was affected. Among the ninety or so swordsmen, most of them had dull expressions. Even in the face of Sir Tidehark's rare peak-level confrontation, none of them revealed an expression of shock. There was a proverb at the beginning of the Wu family's genealogy: "Only when the heart is dead like ashes does the sword come alive." In the end, it was to say that the sword was more important than the person. Forget oneself and remember the sword. Only in this way could the sword be enlightened and enter the divine. The Wu family advocated "two swords". One type of sword wielding was like a lover who had met with infatuated love. After grasping the sword, they would never change their mind and would die for the sword as if it were for love. The other type of sword wielding was like a descendant who respected their ancestors. They would pay attention to the inheritance of the sword and would often think about how the swordsman who wielded the sword would conduct himself.
Wu Liuding squatted by the lakeside. Cuihua, who carried the Su Of Gojoseon, stood behind him. On the left and right of the sword crown stood a man in his forties. His surname was Zhu, and he gave off a gloomy aura as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight. The other old man stood in contrast. Even if he did not smile, he gave off the impression that he was much kinder. The sword on the old man's back was extremely thin and long. Its width was less than half that of an ordinary sword, but it was as long as two ordinary swords. The old man was short and his sword was almost as tall as him. These two people were very important even in the Sword Tomb of the Wu family, which was full of experts. The man Wu Liuding privately called Demon Zhu was once Đồng Thái's mortal enemy. The two of them were once abandoned on the Sword Mountain. From childhood to adolescence, they relied on each other for survival. No one knew why they eventually turned against each other and became enemies. Helian, who was nicknamed the Sword Grandpa, was a martial arts maniac. He was one of the few Beimang swordsmen in the Sword Tomb. The illegitimate son of the Wu family, Đồng Thái, fought against him when he left the Sword Tomb. Helian, on the other hand, was praised by the ancestor of the Wu family as the best in terms of his unique understanding of the sword.
The man with the surname Zhu crossed his arms in front of his chest and said sinisterly, "What best in the world? As long as we remove those nails, even I will have a chance to kill him."
Although Wu Liuding didn't have a good impression of Hsu Fengnian, he was still impartial when it came to matters and people. In addition, he had always hated Demon Zhu, who had killed many people in the Sword Tomb. If it wasn't for the fact that Demon Zhu had already left the Wu family, he would have pestered the ancestor to change his mind and not let the tiger go back to the mountain. He and Cui Hua didn't believe that sixty Dragon-Binding Nails could trap this person. Therefore, Wu Liuding sneered and said, "Don't forget that the current Hsu Fengnian is a Hsu Fengnian without Gao Shulu's physique. His strength has been greatly reduced. If Wang Xianzhi hadn't died, would you have dared to say such words in Martial Emperor City? "
The devil laughed mockingly and said, "Whether Old Monster Wang is dead or not, I won't say that I can defeat him. But since that Xu Fengnian has been beaten back to his original state and is only a number one person in the world who doesn't live up to his name, why can't I say it? Can't kill him? As the Sword Crown of the Wu family, you don't even have this bit of courage. It seems that the Jianghu is destined to be worse with each generation. The Wu family's Sword Tomb is no exception. "
Wu Liuding was so angry that he glared. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Cui Hua say softly, "Zhu Huang, in three days, we will decide who the Su Of Gojoseon belongs to."
Demon Zhu, who had been drooling over the Su Of Gojoseon for a long time, chuckled. However, there was a trace of undetectable nervousness in his fiery eyes. Wu Liuding was even more flustered. However, he knew Cui Hua's temperament too well. He couldn't persuade her with words. Even if he used a few large vats of saliva, it would still be futile unless his swordsmanship was better than hers. At this moment, Wu Liuding, who had left the Sword Tomb to travel the Jianghu for many years, suddenly realized that he might have been too content. He always felt that he would one day reach the top of the Sword Forest and that there was no need to rush. Wu Liuding seemed lazy and undisciplined, but he was also extremely conceited. He thought that his talent was enough to make the entire Jianghu wait for that day.
Elder Helian, who had been watching the Tide-listening Pavilion all this time, suddenly said, "I've spent my entire life observing, learning, and comprehending. It's like collecting countless treasures. I want to weave two flawless curtains, but I'm limited by my mediocre weaving skills. I have the will, but I don't have the strength. It's said that even the cleverest housewife can't cook without rice. I'm helpless, and I'm even more helpless. I have ten thousand pounds of rice, but I can't cook it. Thus, I've never been able to show these two curtains to the world. "
The elder turned his head to look at the young Sword Crown and slowly said, "I originally thought that you, Wu Liuding, could weave the two curtains. However, time doesn't wait for me. I'm already over eighty years old and don't have many days left to live. I might not be able to wait until the day you achieve enlightenment in the Way of the Sword. Now, I'm fortunate enough to encounter a ready-made one …"
