Ding Ning had heard of Sword God Yagyuu many times. It was said that he was a legend in the Fusang Martial Arts World. His swordsmanship was close to the gods. Back then, he only emitted a stream of Sword Qi from dozens of miles away, and it scared the arrogant Tian Xuanzi so much that he fled.
No one knew how long this old fellow had lived. They only knew that the Sword God Palace had existed for centuries. Sword God Yagyu's strength was even more unfathomable. He was definitely a terrifying old antique.
It was also because of his position in the Fusang Five Paths World that the Yagyuu Clan, the strongest clan in Fusang, was able to prosper for so long. However, the Sword God Palace didn't seem to have anything to do with him. What kind of grudge did they have against him?
"Wait, no, is it because of Yagyuu Asamayu? Yagyuu Asamayu was the direct descendant of Sword God Yagyuu. Now that she had been seduced by him, it was barely reasonable for her to come to him to settle accounts.
However, Yagyuu Asamayu's identity was extremely secretive. Even now, she had never shown her true face. How could Sword God Yagyuu know that she was by his side?
"No, it's definitely not because of Yagyuu Asamayu. With the identity and status of Sword God Yagyuu, he will never stand up for a descendant who is many generations away from him. That would be too embarrassing for the first person in Fuso."
"Rumor has it that you are from the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe."
Xiao Nuo looked at him and said faintly, her beautiful eyes sparkling with doubt.
"Bullsh * t. It must be a rumor spread by that b * stard Chi Yang on purpose. I'm not a disciple of the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe. Even if I am, why would Sword God Yagyu seek revenge from me? His disciple, Miyamoto Musashi, came to the Divine Land a hundred years ago to challenge the masters of Kendo. He defeated seventeen people in a row and was finally beheaded by a young man from the Holy-sword Villa. If there is a grudge, it should be with the Holy-sword Villa. "
Ding Ning was really confused. He didn't know what was wrong with Sword God Yagyuu. Did he think that he was a pushover? Instead of coming to the Holy-sword Villa, they came to him.
Xiao Nuo didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "That was the first half. Don't you know what happened later?"
"What happened next?"
Ding Ning asked in confusion.
"Miyamoto Musashi was the most talented disciple of the Sword God Palace. He was also the successor that Sword God Yagyuu had high hopes for. Since he died in the Divine Land, Sword God Yagyuu was not willing to let it go. So, according to the rules of Jianghu, he sent a letter of challenge to the Holy-sword Villa's swordsmanship experts on Drifting Cloud Island in the East Sea."
Xiao Nuo said with fervor and assurance, "Unexpectedly, when the young man from the Holy-sword Villa who killed Miyamoto Musashi rushed to the Drifting Cloud Island under the escort of several masters of swordsmanship from the Holy-sword Villa, he ran into a disciple of the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe on the way. Like the Holy Medical Family, the Holy-sword Villa's training is to kill the disciple of the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe on sight. Therefore, the people from the Holy-sword Villa did not hesitate to attack the disciple of the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe and directly killed him with a sneak attack. However, unexpectedly, the disciple of the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe was not a disciple who came out to experience alone, but a group of masters who went out to look for something nearby."
"The result can be imagined. The Holy-sword Villa must be in big trouble."
Ding Ning had no good impression of the Holy-sword Villa and the Holy Medical Family, so he said gloatingly.
"Right. Although the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe is one of the Four Holy Gates, its strength is many times stronger than that of the Holy-sword Villa. Seeing that the Holy-sword Villa disregarded their reputation and attacked their own disciple, the people of the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe couldn't bear it anymore. In a rage, they fought with the Holy-sword Villa and killed the people of the Holy-sword Villa, who fled in panic."
Xiao Nuo shook her head and said, "There were more than 10 people in the Holy-sword Villa, but seven or eight of them were killed in just one encounter, which terrified the rest of them and made them flee in all directions like headless flies. The Holy-saber Ancient Tribe was not willing to let them go, so they chased after them. The people of the Holy-sword Villa were also insidious. They intended to lead the trouble to someone else, so they directly fled to the Drifting Cloud Island."
"Then the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe and Sword God Yagyuu fought against each other?"
Ding Ning guessed.
"Yes and no. Sword God Yagyuu practiced swordsmanship and looked down on other weapons. When he saw that the people of the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe all used knives, he didn't care about them at all."
Xiao Nuo organized her words and said, "The disciple of the Holy-sword Villa who killed Miyamoto Musashi was called Jiang Yijian. He was the young master of the Holy-sword Villa at that time. He escaped to the Drifting Cloud Island under the protection of the remaining experts. Sword God Yagyuu didn't know that they were being chased. He thought that they were here for an appointment, so he went up to them and prepared for a duel."
"Then?"
Ding Ning listened with great interest, but he muttered in his heart, "Where did Xiao Nuo get this information? I have never heard of it."
"Then, a knife light flashed. In front of Sword God Yagyuu, Jiang Yijian's head flew into the sky."
Xiao Nuo said with a wry smile, "Warriors have their dignity. Since Sword God Yagyuu dared to challenge them, he had the intention to kill his enemy. However, because of his seniority and status, he planned to kill all the experts of the Holy-sword Villa and then kill his enemy."
"So what the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe did infuriated Sword God Yagyuu?"
Ding Ning said thoughtfully.
"No, maybe that's part of the reason, but it's more because he was excited to see his prey. Sword God Yagyuu has been obsessed with swords all his life. With his attainments in swordsmanship at that time, he thought that no one in the world could match him, so he always regarded the Holy-sword Villa as his biggest imaginary enemy. In addition, he has always looked down on weapons other than swordsmanship. So when he saw that the experts of the Holy-sword Villa were slaughtered by the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe, his fighting spirit was immediately aroused."
Xiao Nuo curled her lips and said, "Although his swordsmanship cultivation is indeed better than that of the experts of the Holy-sword Villa, he was too self-righteous. He thought that the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe won by outnumbering them, so he took the initiative to attack the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe recklessly."
"Then this guy became a tragedy? He wanted to take revenge, but he couldn't find the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe, so he blamed me. I was the one who became the f * cking tragedy. This scapegoat is really … speechless. "
Before Xiao Nuo finished speaking, Ding Ning could roughly guess the ending, and he finally understood why Sword God Yagyuu wanted to take revenge on him, the "disciple of the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe".
"Yes, the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe had no intention of making things difficult for irrelevant people, but Sword God Yagyuu took the initiative to court death, so they naturally wouldn't be polite. In that battle, Sword God Yagyuu was seriously injured. There was not a piece of intact skin on his body, and he was almost cut into a skeleton. In the end, under the protection of his seven disciples, he luckily escaped back to Fusang, but the price was that all his seven disciples were seriously injured and died.
It took him several years of closed-door training to heal his wounds. "Xiao Nuo said with emotion," Sword God Yagyuu only accepted eight disciples. Now, in order to avenge Miyamoto Musashi, all eight disciples died, and he became a loner, which was a great shame for him. Therefore, he kept the battle a secret and never announced it to the outside world. Only one person of the Holy-sword Villa luckily escaped by hiding in the sea. Naturally, such a shameful thing would not be publicized, and he silently swallowed it. As for the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe, they don't contact the outside world at all, let alone publicize it, so few people in the outside world know about it. "
"Then how did you know it?"
Ding Ning asked abruptly.
"I heard … Humph, I told you not to ask, but you still asked."
Xiao Nuo almost blurted it out, but she immediately reacted and stared at him angrily, saying in a sweet voice.
"Okay, okay, okay, I won't ask, okay?"
Ding Ning smiled obsequiously, but in his heart, he thought it was a pity.
He almost got the information out of her, but he didn't expect this girl to react so quickly.
He had always thought that Xiao Nuo had heard it from her grandfather, but now he thought that even the former military big shots might not know such a secret. It seemed that someone else had told her the news.
"If it were in normal times, Sword God Yagyuu would never dare to attack you at the International Warriors' Competition at the risk of angering the martial arts world of Shenzhou."
Xiao Nuo glanced at him, and her pretty face was full of worry. "But now you not only become enemies with the Holy Medical Family and the Holy-sword Villa, but also with the Holy-goddess Tribe. The three Holy Gates are standing on the opposite side of you. Even if they can't attack you at the Warriors' Competition for the sake of the people of Shenzhou, they will definitely play dirty tricks in secret. Sword God Yagyuu knows this, so he dares to threaten to kill you in public. So, you can't attend the International Warriors' Competition this time."
Before Ding Ning could speak, Xiao Nuo continued, "Originally, I thought you were really from the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe. If you could get the protection of the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe, those people might not dare to be so presumptuous. But you are not from the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe, which makes your situation more dangerous. Who knows what the attitude of the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe is. If they think you are pretending to be from the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe, maybe even they will attack you."
Ding Ning frowned. He could ignore Sword God Yagyuu and even ignore the fact that the Holy Medical Family, the Holy-sword Villa, and the Holy-goddess Tribe wanted to kill him, but he really couldn't ignore the attitude of the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe, which was recognized as the strongest Holy Gate.
In particular, he always felt that his Cattle-butchering Skill had an improper origin, and it was very likely that his father had stolen it. Subconsciously, he felt guilty when facing the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe.
Even if the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe looked on coldly and did not help either side, he was not afraid. But if, as Xiao Nuo said, the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe thought he had secretly learned their saber technique and attacked him, he might not be able to escape unscathed even with the experts of the Crane Tribe and the Sword God Yagyuu as his bodyguard.
It should be known that these were not the only enemies he had. The Descendants of God Organization, the Dark Council, and the Holy Vatican had been eyeing him covetously. If they failed to recruit him, it was not impossible for them to stab him in the back.
In addition, there was a secret reward of up to 500 million Mi gold. There were countless people who wanted to kill him, both openly and secretly.
"Damn it. If I am not careful, I will become the enemy of the whole world. I am really speechless."
Thinking of this, Ding Ning said with a wry smile.
It was not that he did not know this, but he was shocked when he thought about it. More than half of the strongest forces in the world had become his enemy.
"It's okay. As long as you don't leave Shenzhou, those enemies will at most send some killers to assassinate you in our territory. They will never dare to besiege you with great fanfare. After all, the deterrent force of the country is there. So, you need to make TV and movies for publicity. On the one hand, it can expand your popularity and let the public realize the value of your existence. On the other hand, you can develop more drugs and actively make contributions to the country so that the big shots at the top will feel that you are valuable. Then, they will spare no effort to ensure your safety."
Xiao Nuo's eyes sparkled with wisdom, and she carefully analyzed, "The identity of the disciple of Marquis Wu of the National Warrior's Mansion is not enough to guarantee your absolute safety now. Your biggest advantage is your medical skills. It's better to put the military-supplied drugs into production as soon as possible so that the military will realize your importance and recognize your value. Then, you will have one more guarantee. Another is to make some more contributions to the medical field so that the senior officials of the country will pay more attention to you and make you an indispensable national treasure of the country. Then, you will be safer."
Seeing that Xiao Nuo spoke with confidence and composure after careful consideration, Ding Ning felt a little funny and inexplicably moved. "This girl is really thinking about me."
