The melon-eating swordsman in the ancient dragon world.

Chapter 528: Taishan Alliance
We went to Jinan to deliver the goods, then headed south, with Mount Tai in sight.

Tie Kaicheng asked, "When will the Seven Sects Alliance be held?"

Li Zhenzhen sighed softly.

Sun Xingyu asked with a smile, "Why are you sighing, sister?"

"It's my sister!" Li Zhenzhen emphasized, and then said, "The battle between Yan Shisan and Xie Xiaofeng at Mount Tai really made the Seven Sects Alliance look dull."

"If it's put before the decisive battle, it's like an appetizer before the decisive battle." Li Zhenzhen said helplessly, "But if it's put after the decisive battle, it feels like chicken ribs and tasteless."

"So will the Seven Factions Alliance be held before or after the decisive battle?" Tie Kaicheng asked.

"Before." Li Zhenzhen said, "If it was after the decisive battle, I'm afraid no one in the martial arts world would care."

“Then you don’t need to belittle yourselves. Each of the seven major sword sects has been passed down for hundreds of years. No matter how the world of martial arts rises and falls, it will not affect your status in the world of martial arts.” Tie Kaicheng said.

"But the peerless masters in the martial arts world will shine in the contemporary era." Li Zhenzhen said, "For example, the battle between Xie Xiaofeng and Yan Shisan. In your words, our seven major sword sects are just the background. We don't want to be the background."

Tie Kaicheng patted Li Zhenzhen's thigh and said, "You can't force this kind of thing. Just lie down and relax."

Li Zhenzhen, "..."

"The decisive battle between Yan Shisan and Xie Xiaofeng will be on September 9th, and the seven sects will meet on September 8th." Li Zhenzhen said, "The Fengshan Terrace of Mount Tai will be the venue for the seven sects to decide on their leader."

Outside the carriage, Rong Zhengjie turned around and knocked on the door, "Captain Escort, we've arrived in Tai'an."

……

On the eighth day of September, the sky was high and the clouds were light.

Neither Xie Xiaofeng nor Yan Shisan showed up.

Yan Shisan disappeared, and the Xie family's convoy stopped in Tai'an Town. No one left the inn, and no one had any intention of going up the mountain to watch the meeting of the seven major sword sects.

But apart from these two parties, everyone else who should have come had come. Among them, the most famous person in the Jiangnan martial arts world was Xiahou Xing, the eldest son of the Xiahou family in the Red Cloud Valley of the Flame Mountain.

The leaders of the seven major sword sects did not come. After all, this was the stage for the younger generation. Each sect only sent one or two old masters to support the team. Instead, many disciples of the younger generation came.

Well, the twelve disciples of Hainan Sword Sect stood together with Emei Sect.

Elders from Shaolin and the Beggars' Sect also came to watch the ceremony. The one who came from Shaolin Temple was the head monk Tianming from the Dharma Temple, and the one who came from the Beggars' Sect was an elder with nine bags.

But what attracted everyone's attention were not the elders of these prestigious sects, nor the young masters of famous families such as Xiahou Xing. Everyone's attention was drawn to two places.

One is the Emei camp where Tie Kaicheng is located.

Tie Kaicheng, who has just acquired the nickname of a gangster, has become quite popular recently. Moreover, he is the successor of Yan Shisan's swordsmanship and the semi-public lover of Rakshasa Fairy Li Zhenzhen, so he naturally attracts a lot of attention.

The other is a couple from the Huashan Sect.

The woman looked to be in her middle age, and was wearing fine clothes and pearls, but there was a gleam in her eyes, and it was obvious that she was also a heroine.

The man looked older, but his body was straight, he looked strong and full of energy. He was holding a yellow cloth bag in his hand. Even among a group of martial arts masters, he stood out like a crane among chickens and attracted a lot of attention.

"The Wandering Dragon Swordsman Hua Yukun, the Flying Phoenix Swordsman Xie Fenghuang!"

"The dragon and phoenix swords are a perfect match. They haven't left Huayin for twenty years. How come they are in Mount Tai today?"

"Of course it's because of tomorrow's battle!" "Hua Yukun was defeated by Xie Xiaofeng back then, but the Xie family is still Xie Fenghuang's natal family after all, and Hua Yukun may not have been willing to fade out of society in the past 20 years."

"He's already over seventy years old, does he still want to make a comeback?"

"Before Xie Xiaofeng, although Hua Yukun had not yet won the title of the world's number one swordsman, no one in the martial arts world was sure to defeat him. He had only been defeated once in his life."

"For a man like him, going to the grave with a defeat would only make him die with regrets."

"So he must come to see how good Xie Xiaofeng's martial arts are now?"

"Not bad!"

Tie Kaicheng was also looking at Hua Yukun not far away, and asked Li Zhenzhen in a low voice, "Was he already the number one among the seven major sword sects back then?"

Li Zhenzhen said with some emotion and some pity, "Yes."

Tie Kaicheng stroked his chin, "Then why doesn't he go fight the leader of the Demon Cult?"

Li Zhenzhen shook her head and said, "I heard that Huashan Sect really thought about it, but when the leader of the Demon Sect was rising, he had just been defeated by Xie Xiaofeng, and he was completely depressed. He couldn't even make a move, let alone fight against the Demon Sect."

Li Zhenzhen said helplessly, "We couldn't possibly find a ten-year-old child to represent the Central Plains martial arts world."

Not to mention that the Demon Cult back then did not have the power it has today, and there were still disputes and conflicts between the seven major sword sects and the major families in Jiangnan.

Tie Kaicheng looked at Hua Yukun's figure that seemed to be neither moving nor moving, frowned slightly, and his expression became serious.

As the saying goes, the layman sees the excitement, the expert sees the doorway. Tie Kaicheng could see that, even if Hua Yukun's martial arts had not yet reached the level of returning to original simplicity, it was not far from it.

Even though "The Third Young Master's Sword" is only a medium-length story, there are many masters in it. Whether it is Mr. Mao or Hua Yukun in front of him, they are all rare master swordsmen.

It was just that it was too fragile and a little careless, so it died very casually.

In addition to the seven major sword sects, standing in the distance on the Fengshan Terrace were people from the Jiangnan families, the chief escorts from more than a dozen escort agencies, the chief leader of the green forest stronghold, and the leaders of the sects and martial arts families from Shanxi, Hebei, Henan, Shandong and other places.

They mainly wanted to watch the duel between Xie Xiaofeng and Yan Shisan, but the grand occasion of the alliance of the seven major sword sects was naturally not to be missed.

Tie Kaicheng also saw Xiahou Xing and Xiahou Feishan, but they did not want to meet Tie Kaicheng. When Tie Kaicheng looked at them, they quickly turned their gaze away.

Just as Tie Kaicheng was looking around for acquaintances, the alliance of the seven major sword sects began.

……

"Wudang is not only one of the seven major sword sects, but also one of the three major sects along with Shaolin and Beggars' Sect. It has the deepest foundation. Ouyang Yunhe is the leader of this generation of Wudang disciples, so he is the best choice for the leader."

"What a joke! If we were only comparing the foundations of our sects, why would we come to Mount Tai? We could just go to the Wudang Zhenwu Hall and pay our respects to the mountain gate."

Although Wudang Sect is undoubtedly the leader among the seven major sword sects in terms of power and foundation, the reason why the seven major sword sects have been able to coexist for many years and have generally maintained a harmonious relationship is that Wudang Sect is sufficiently low-key and does not use its power to bully others.

"Ouyang Yunhe is the leader of the Four Spirits and Twin Jades. Although he is located in the Central Plains, he has been out in the battlefield. At least seven or eight members of the Demon Cult and the Heavenly Lord's assassins have died under his sword."

"Kunlun and Kongtong have always been at the forefront of the fight against the Demon Cult, and Tian Zailong and Qin Duxiu have also made great contributions."

"Dian Cang Wu Tao is a modest gentleman with a gentle personality. He is just the right person to be the leader of the seven factions and mediate between them."

"In terms of contribution, Rakshasa Fairy Li Zhenzhen has superb swordsmanship and extraordinary wisdom. She has set many traps, and the number of Demon Cult members and Tianzun killers who died because of her is the highest!"
