Chapter 1329: The Expert Hits a Wall

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Bai Yi and Xi Qishu were both generals and the emperor of Great Qin’s trusted men.

After the battle on Mount Xiao, Bai Yi was more than qualified to hold a high position in the army. However, in view of Bai Yi’s swordsmans.h.i.+p, the emperor of Great Qin transferred Bai Yi out of the army and made Bai Yi one of his lackeys. On the surface, Bai Yi seemed like an idle official. In truth, Bai Yi secretly helped him to remove the thorns in his side.

In the past, there was an official who was impressed by Bai Yi’s achievements during the battle on Mount Xiao. However, when he tried to rope Bai Yi into his cause, he was killed by Bai Yi. From then on, the emperor viewed Bai Yi as his confidant.

…

The moon was dim and the wind was strong when Bai Yi arrived near the vicinity of the Zhao Residence.

He was careful and patient like a hunter as he observed his surroundings.

After Zhao Yu discovered the truth, he had completely changed the helpers in the residence so there were no insiders to help Bai Yi. Hence, he could only look for opportunities himself.

Bai Yi stood near the trunk of a towering tree at the edge of a jungle outside of the Zhao Residence.

A skeptical expression could be seen on his face as he murmured to himself, “How did His Majesty lose?”

Before he came here, he had already received news that the emperor of Great Qin was forced to flee after exchanging blows with the expert in the Zhao Residence. Since he was among the few who were privy to the emperor’s true strength, the fact that the emperor was forced to flee told him that the expert was stronger than a Venerable Master. Hence, he was extra cautious.

‘No wonder they dared to kill Xi Qishu. Fortunately, I didn’t follow Zhi Wenzhi here,’ Bai Yi thought to himself, relieved.

Although Zhi Wenzi and Zhi Wuzi’s cultivation bases were not bad, they liked using others to do their dirty work. Bai Yi thought the duo deserved what they got. The duo could only blame themselves for meeting a tough opponent.

Suddenly, Bai Yi heard the noises of energy swords and hurriedly flew in the direction of the noise to have a look.

Bai Yi was born with an inherent love for swords. He was also widely acknowledged as a highly-skilled swordsman in Xiangyang City. How could he not tell the sounds were from energy swords? He traveled along the edge of the jungle and made his way east. In the darkness of the night, he looked like a wild wolf.

He furrowed his brows when he came to a stop on a hill and looked in the direction of the sound. “Hm? It didn’t come from the Zhao Residence?” Then, a wide grin appeared on his face before he said, “It seems like even heaven is on my side! I’ll bring your head to His Majesty!”

Bai Yi flew southeast. In less than the time it took to brew a pot of tea, he could vaguely hear the sound of flowing water from the foot of a small mountain southeast of the Zhao residence.

Bai Yi did not stop. He jumped into the air and flew up the mountain. He stood at a high alt.i.tude so could see far ahead. Then, he landed silently on a huge rock.

The huge rock was strategically hidden by the trees in the surroundings.

Bai Yi looked down and saw a grayish figure flas.h.i.+ng back and forth as energy swords sailed in the air.

Due to the dim lighting, he could not see that it was actually a green-clad swordsman.

The green-clad swordsman suddenly came to a stop.

The countless energy swords that were spinning in the air like a tornado suddenly stopped as though they were frozen.

Bai Yi felt speechless when he saw this. He praised inwardly, ‘What a great control!’

The green-clad swordsman turned slightly, and the energy swords vanished at the same time. Then, a streak of red light flew into a scabbard.

The green-clad swordsman looked to the side and said, “This move of mine can easily control over a million energy swords. What do you think, Eldest Senior Brother?”

‘There’s another person?’ Bai Yi looked over.

A person walked out from the shadows onto the moonlit ground. He smiled and said, “Your cultivation base has already surpa.s.sed mine, but that’s not important. It won’t be long before I catch up to you. Based on this, it can be seen that the path of severing the lotus is easier…”

“The majority of those who severed their lotuses fall behind those who didn’t,” Yu Shangrong said.

“There’s no point discussing which is easier or harder. I can replicate that move of yours with my saber,” Yu Zhenghai said before the Jasper Saber flew out from his waist.

The Jasper Saber glowed with a pale light, making it look even more mysterious and strange under the moonlight. It flashed with golden light once before…

Swoos.h.!.+

Millions of energy sabers appeared in the air. They sparkled beautifully under the moonlight. After a moment, they got into a formation, forming a long dragon.

The long dragon circled Yu Zhenghai several times before it flew toward the tree at the side.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The energy sabers. .h.i.t the tree in succession before they flew back to Yu Zhenghai’s side before they vanished.

After a moment…

Creak!

The tree fell to the ground. Its trunk was neatly sliced into pieces like cakes that rolled toward Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai’s feet. Their sizes were the same, and the cuts were smooth.

Yu Zhenghai smiled and said, “In fact, the saber is not only domineering, but it’s also capable of performing finer actions like the swords.”

Yu Shangrong did not care to respond to these words. Instead, he said, “Eldest Senior Brother, please have another look.”

Swoos.h.!.+

The Longevity Sword flew up to the sky.

10 meters…

100 meters…

1 kilometer…

The Longevity Sword continued to rise, pa.s.sing the height where Bai Yi was.

Bai Yi tightened his grip around his sword and retreated into the shadows. He raised his head and looked at the sword that glowed red in shock and disbelief, “Flying sword?”

The Longevity Sword released energy swords that filled the night sky. They formed a ring high up in the sky and divided it into twelve areas like a clock, which was particularly eye-catching, before they lined up and shot back into the Longevity Sword. Following that, the Longevity Sword flew back into its scabbard.

Bai Yi. “…”

Bai Yi had always prided himself on his sword skills. However, he felt as though his confidence and pride had suffered a blow after witnessing Yu Shangrong’s perfect control. At this moment, his hand that was gripping his sword was clammy, and his mind was filled with complex thoughts.

“Can you do this, Eldest Senior Brother?” Yu Shangrong asked with a small hint of smugness.

Yu Zhenghai said, “It’s just flying the sword to a higher alt.i.tude. It’s not particularly useful. I can just walk up to my opponent and kill him with a strike.”

“Of course, it’s useful!”

“Hm?”

Swoos.h.!.+

As soon as Yu Shangrong’s voice fell, the Longevity Sword flew out of its scabbard again, unleas.h.i.+ng countless energy swords in the direction where Bai Yi was hiding.

Then, a voice that carried a hint of derision rang in the air.

“Friend, have you seen enough?”

‘Sh*t, I’ve been discovered!’ Bai Yi hurriedly brandished his sword.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Bai Yi sent the energy swords flying back as he flew up until he was looking down on the duo. Then, he said, “I didn’t mean to offend the both of you. I was just pa.s.sing by. Farewell.”

Bai Yi knew he could not kill the duo. If he tried, the one who would be killed was him. Hence, he wanted to retreat as quickly as possible. Just as he turned to leave, a heaven-cleaving energy saber shot over from the side.

Yu Zhenghai held his saber with both hands and unleashed a 1,000-meter-long energy saber.

Bai Yi frowned as he parried horizontally with his sword.

Boom!

Bai Yi flashed backward. The collision caused his blood and Qi to churn, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

Yu Zhenghai smiled and said, “The result is the same.”

Yu Shangrong also smiled and said, “This person’s cultivation is not bad, and he seems to be skilled with the sword. Why don’t we test our skills on him?”

“Alright.”

The duo flew up in unison.

Upon seeing this, Bai Yi jumped in fright and turned to flee.

Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+

Bai Yi cast his grand technique over and over again without thinking and vanished into the horizons in just a blink of an eye.

Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai were stunned for a moment before they looked at each other.

“Why is he so afraid?”

“He’s probably frightened by my energy saber,” Yu Zhenghai replied with a straight face.

“…”

…

Bai Yi finally landed in a small forest far away from Xiangyang City.

After he calmed down, he looked in the direction of the Zhao Residence and muttered to himself, “I must complete the mission His Majesty has given me no matter what.”

He thought he was too unlucky to run into two experts right off the bat. It was not his style to leave a mission uncompleted; it was not something he could accept.

Bai Yi learned from his mistake. This time, he was determined to leave without any hesitation as soon as he ran into an expert.

Bai Yi set off again. In less than fifteen minutes, he arrived at the Zhao residence and approached from the northwest.

Generally speaking, the southeast direction was where the big shots lived. It was safer to approach from the northwest direction. This side was generally the residence of helpers with low status.

But unfortunately, he discovered the few courtyards in the northwest were uninhabited so he could only head south. He restrained his aura and held his breath, turning himself into an inanimate object.

In the darkness, he saw a huge Qiong Qi lying on the ground, sleeping.

‘Qiong Qi?’ He instinctively retreated.

Qiongqi’s senses were very sharp, and it was unusually difficult to kill. Even if he managed to kill it, it would definitely alert the experts in the Zhao family and cost him his life.

“Leave!”

He decisively changed directions. He rushed to the other side of the villa. Just as he landed, he heard a noise. When he looked over, he saw Whitzard who was shrouded in auspicious Qi.

Whitzard stared at him with its huge eyes and stood up curiously

‘W-whit… Whitzard!’

When Bai Yi retreated, he stumbled due to surprise and nervousness.. At this time, he did not look like an expert swordsman at all.
