After marrying his master's wife, he reached the peak of his life

Chapter 109: Founding a sect and seeking to seize Yuchuan (Subscription required)

Lu Chengfeng looked at Du Xiaoyue who was drawing her sword against him. He suddenly raised his hand and flicked his finger towards the sword blade. A huge force burst out, and the sword body shook, making a buzzing sound.

boom!
The hilt of the sword actually broke free from Du Xiaoyue's hand, spun backwards like a dragon, and then was reinserted into her scabbard with incredible precision.

"what?"

Everyone present was stunned. Du Xiaoyue froze in shock, staring blankly at her hands.

Tan Xiong, who was standing aside, had a gleam in his eyes as he stared at Lu Chengfeng intently.

The humming sound of the sword gradually faded away, and the room was filled with deathly silence. Everyone was shocked by this move.

Du Xiaoyue is one of the seven heroes in the sect. He has cultivated the Chixiao Peak's unique skill "Lihuo Shenxiao Sword Sutra" to the eighteenth level of perfection and is only half a step away from cultivating the sword intent.

Lu Chengfeng was able to easily knock the sword out of his hand and return it to the sheath accurately. The strength, skill and timing he displayed were simply breathtaking.

But he did all this smoothly, without any worldly airs, which was enough to prove that his martial arts level was far above Du Xiaoyue's.

After a long silence, Du Mengyan spoke word by word as if she was meeting this junior brother for the first time: "Junior brother Lu, have you already cultivated the sword spirit?!"

As soon as the word "sword intent" was uttered, Du Xiaoyue came back to her senses. She stared at Lu Chengfeng with sharp eyes, her face full of confusion and disbelief.

There are countless geniuses in the sect, and many elders have cultivated them carefully, but in the end, only three geniuses with the power of sword emerged.

Zhongzhou is known as the place with the most flourishing martial arts in the world, gathering talents from all directions. However, among the thirty-six geniuses on the list of geniuses, only the first nine have been able to condense the sword intent.

Once one has achieved the sword spirit, he will be a top-notch master in the entire martial arts world. He can travel around the world and be treated as a guest of honor wherever he goes.

Lu Chengfeng is only twenty-one years old this year, and he is only of minor fame in the sect. He is far behind the Seven Heroes. Such a disciple can be said to be unknown in the entire martial arts world.

However, it was such a person who developed the sword spirit?
Even Tan Xiong felt an indescribable sense of loss and complexity. He had watched this junior fellow apprentice grow up gradually with his own eyes, although he had already expected that one day Lu Chengfeng might be able to master the sword skill.

But the day came too quickly, and he was still stuck at the eighteenth level, unable to break through.

But this junior fellow student came out on top later on. How could one not be disappointed by such a result?

Facing everyone's attention, Lu Chengfeng pointed his finger like a sword, and suddenly sword energy burst out, shooting straight three feet away. The cold air was creepy.

Even Du Mengyan couldn't sit still at this moment, with a gleam in her eyes, "Junior Brother Lu has such a deep inner Qi, such a pure sword intention, and such a sharp edge. This doesn't seem like he just broke through."

Lu Chengfeng snapped his fingers and the sword energy instantly shattered in the air.

He clasped his fists and bowed to Du Xiaoyue, "Sister, I am sorry for offending you just now. However, we are away from home and shoulder the heavy responsibility of the sect. If we have disputes among ourselves, I am afraid that our loved ones will be sad and our enemies will be happy."

"Moreover, I believe that Senior Sister Meng Yan is definitely not a coward. She shoulders the heavy responsibility of inheriting the sect, and the pressure and pain she faces will only be greater than us."

"It would be easy and refreshing to die, but what about the sect's inheritance and the disciples within the sect? Are we just going to watch them die tragically under the enemy's butcher knife?"

"Please consider the overall situation and don't be impulsive."

"Since we are all gathered here today, we should discuss what to do next."

Du Xiaoyue was so intimidated by him that she could no longer speak wildly, but she still felt a little indignant. "After all, don't you just want to join the Sky Patrol Department?"

Lu Chengfeng shook his head, looked at Du Mengyan and Tan Xiong and said, "My fellow brothers and sisters, the reason why I have been practicing in seclusion during this period is not because I don't care about the dangers in the sect, but because I have other plans."

"There are many secrets here that cannot be disclosed to outsiders. Senior Brother Tan, please ask your attendants to retreat and not let anyone get within ten feet of this place."

Upon hearing this, Tan Xiong glanced at Du Mengyan, and when he saw her nod, he quickly walked out of the room and came back in about a quarter of an hour later.

"There is no one else around. I have arranged for people to guard outside, and no one will get close."

Lu Chengfeng nodded and said, "To be honest, my master gave me an additional task when I came down the mountain this time. He asked me to pretend to be a disciple of Youdu and hunt down the geniuses on the Fengyun Ranking, so as to create enmity between the Patrol Department and Youdu."

"Before meeting you brothers and sisters, I have taken action many times, and many of the geniuses on the ranking list have died in my hands."

"What?" Du Xiaoyue looked at him in confusion. "Although many people on the Fengyun Ranking have died during this period, almost all of them died at the hands of Jun Yanluo."

Lu Chengfeng smiled without saying a word. Suddenly, a knife flashed out from his sleeve and penetrated the table beside Du Xiaoyue like lightning.

Tan Xiong exclaimed: "Yan Luo Knife?"

I saw that the flying knife was about three inches long and had no handle. It was as long and narrow as a willow leaf. It was the Yanluo Knife that made Jun Yanluo famous in the martial arts world.

Lu Chengfeng took out a human skin mask from his sleeve pouch. "This is a treasure given by my master. It can be used to disguise myself as someone else without any flaws. I have gained a little bit with this."

Du Xiaoyue's eyes widened. "Are you saying that the handsome Yanluo who disturbed the whole Zhongdu before was you?"

"Did you kill Li Chengqian and Li Xiaoyun from the Li family?"

Lu Chengfeng nodded and said, "Not bad."

However, Du Mengyan couldn't help but frowned at this time, "Junior brother, Jun Yanluo is practicing the "Killing Impermanence Sword". Even if you have a human skin mask, once you fight with masters, how can you hide it from them?"

Lu Chengfeng smiled and said, "Senior Sister, please take my sword."

Before he finished speaking, his whole body shook and disappeared like a ghost.

The unique move in the Sword of Killing and Impermanence, the Impermanence of Life and Death, no one knows. Among this set of sword techniques, Lu Chengfeng likes this sword the most and uses it most proficiently.

Du Mengyan felt a terrible crisis when he opened his mouth to speak. She flashed and three of her figures appeared in the room in an instant.

hum!
There was the sound of a sword in the void, and Lu Chengfeng's figure flashed and quickly returned to his original place.

However, there was an extra strand of black hair in his hand, and there was a faint fragrance on the hair.

The three figures that Du Mengyan had flashed out merged into one, but her expression was a little stiff, especially when she was staring at the strand of hair in Lu Chengfeng's hand, her eyes were even more unfriendly.

Lu Chengfeng coughed dryly, "Senior Sister, is my sword of death and impermanence worthy of your attention?"

Du Mengyan snorted coldly, "Give it back to me!"

Lu Chengfeng was speechless. He originally thought that this woman was calm and generous, and was someone who could accomplish great things, but now it seemed that she was still stingy...

He obediently returned the hair.

After Du Mengyan took it, she felt even more embarrassed. She didn't know whether to put it away or throw it away, and she felt quite angry.

As for Tan Xiong and Du Xiaoyue, they were looking at Lu Chengfeng as if he were a god.

Du Mengyan's status in the sect is higher than many elders. She is even called the Fairy Qionghua in the martial arts world. Countless people admire her but dare only keep it secret in their hearts.

Whether in terms of appearance, figure, temperament, martial arts, origin, background, or potential, this person is the most outstanding. All the disciples in the sect can only watch from afar and cannot get close to her.

However, Lu Chengfeng dared to attack the fairy directly and even cut off a strand of her hair. His martial arts and courage really made people stunned again.

Du Mengyan also sensed some strange atmosphere in the room. She clutched her hair in her hands and said with some embarrassment: "We all know about Junior Brother Lu's abilities, but what is your intention in saying this?" "Are you just letting us know about your abilities and contributions?"

Lu Chengfeng was thick-skinned and pretended that nothing had happened. He continued, "That's not the case. It's only natural to contribute to the sect. It can't be considered a merit."

"Everyone is gathered here today. I have an idea that I want to discuss with you brothers and sisters."

Du Xiaoyue was a straightforward person to begin with. Now she suddenly discovered that her junior brother, whom she thought was a coward who was afraid of death, actually had such high martial arts skills. He had also caused such a big disturbance before that Zhongdu even sent a large army to encircle Sanxian Mountain.

Not to mention what she saw with her own eyes at this moment, this junior brother cut off a strand of Du Mengyan's hair without making a sound, which almost made her eyes sparkle with stars.

He immediately said, "Junior brother, I, Du Xiaoyue, am blind and have misunderstood you before. I thought you were a cowardly person. I apologize to you."

"Just tell me what you think. As long as it can help the sect, I will definitely support you with all my strength."

At this time, Tan Xiong gradually recovered from his complicated mood. No matter what, it was a good thing to have such a talented junior brother appear out of nowhere at a time when his sect was in danger.

After all, up to this point, they have tried every possible method but have not gained anything. It would be great if Lu Chengfeng could come up with a better idea.

"Junior brother, if you have anything to say, just tell me. I will definitely support you with all my strength."

Lu Chengfeng said, "To be honest with you, I originally planned to disguise myself as Zhao Tianyou from the Zhao family of the Sky Patrol Division and find a way to meet the Heavenly King."

"Discussing with the high-ranking officials of the Sky Patrol Division will not yield any results. I don't believe that a master like the Heavenly King would sit back and watch Youzhou swallow up the Northland."

"As long as we can meet him, there might be hope of forming an alliance."

Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.

It’s not that they didn’t want to meet the King of Zhentian, but they didn’t have any channels before. If Lu Chengfeng could really find a way to meet the King of Zhentian, then maybe there would be a chance of success.

Du Mengyan didn't have time to think about anything else after hearing this, and asked, "Junior brother, what are your plans?"

Lu Chengfeng glanced at everyone and said, "You all should know that the Zhao family and the Li family have a blood feud that will not end until one of them dies."

"Now that I have obtained the Zhao family's Sky Patrol Order, as long as I disguise myself as Zhao Tianyou, I can attack the Li family openly."

"According to the rules of the Sky Patrol, this is an internal dispute of the Sky Patrol, and outsiders are not allowed to interfere."

"The ancestor of the Li family was a senior member of the Patrol Department. The second generation of the Li family, Li Xiaotian, was the governor of Yuchuan County, one of the nine counties in Zhongzhou."

"If I can swallow up the Li family and gain the Li family's power and position in the Sky Patrol Department, I can naturally find a way to meet the Heavenly King."

Du Mengyan frowned slightly, "It's not that easy to swallow up the Li family. Li Chungang himself has cultivated the Wind Cloud Thunderbolt Palm to the twenty-seventh level of perfection, and Li Xiaotian should be not much different."

"Junior brother, even if you have mastered the sword skills, I'm afraid you can't be a match for these two."

Lu Chengfeng smiled and said, "It would be extremely difficult to accomplish this task by myself. What if I could ask for help from my master?"

"Huh?" The three of them looked at him with puzzled eyes.

Lu Chengfeng smiled and said, "The Zhao family was one of the founding members of the Sky Patrol Department and holds the Sky Patrol Order, but the Zhao family has never thought of establishing a sect."

"If I establish a sect in Zhongzhou as Zhao Tianyou, then all the brothers and sisters will join the sect."

“Even if other people from the Patrol Department found out, they would only think that Zhao Tianyou had formed an alliance with the Yuncang Sword Sect in order to avenge his blood feud.”

"In order to preserve the flame for the sect and not want to be swallowed up and suppressed by other forces in the Patrol Sky Division, the Yuncang Sword Sect chose Zhao Tianyou, who was weak and easiest to control."

"In this way, we can legitimately unite and attack the Li family."

Hearing this, the other three people present all showed excitement.

"Junior Brother Lu, you are really a genius!" Du Xiaoyue couldn't help but say, "You are so smart to come up with such an idea."

Du Mengyan took a deep breath and said, "If this can really be accomplished, we can establish a sect and even become a branch of the sect."

"If nothing happens to the sect, this will extend the sect's influence into Zhongzhou. If something does happen to the sect, this will be the sect's new inheritance and fire."

"Then we can gather the disciples and elders from other sects to make a comeback."

Tan Xiong also nodded and said, "Yes, the most important thing is that the Zhao family, as one of the founders of the Sky Patrol Department, has the Sky Patrol Order. If we establish a sect on the basis of the Zhao family, we will be less restricted and suppressed."

"At the same time, it will not cause too much resistance or vigilance from other forces in the Sky Patrol Department."

The more they talked, the more excited they became. They felt like they had discovered an extremely bright path. If this could be accomplished, it would be a perfect escape route for the sect.

At that time, the Yuncang Sword Sect will use the empty shell of the Zhao family to become a part of the Xuntian Division, and will naturally be able to use the power of the Xuntian Division to fight against Youdu.

"Junior brother, what are you going to do about this?" After everyone discussed for a while, they all felt that there was great potential for this matter, and Du Mengyan also looked at Lu Chengfeng with admiration.

I felt that although this junior fellow was young, he was indeed a man of great talent, and his shrewdness and wisdom were far beyond the reach of ordinary people, so I took the initiative to ask for advice.

Lu Chengfeng took out a map that he had prepared long ago from his arms, walked to the table beside him, and slowly unfolded the map.

The map clearly outlines the nine counties of Zhongzhou and the various counties in the north. Although it does not include detailed information about cities and mountains, it can clearly show the situation in the north.

The other three also gathered around the table. Lu Chengfeng pointed to Yuchuan County, one of the nine counties in Zhongzhou, and said, "The Li family now controls Yuchuan County, one of the nine counties. Li Xiaotian serves as the garrison commander of this army, and he leads an army of 3,000 elite soldiers."

"If we want to establish a sect, the best choice is Yuchuan County."

"Firstly, the Zhao family and the Li family have a deep blood feud. Even if the Zhao family fights with the Li family and bleeds, others will think it is natural and will not easily intervene."

"Secondly, if we choose other places, it will cause rejection and hostility from local vested interests, thus making us have more enemies."

"Sanlai Yuchuan County is located in the northernmost part of Zhongzhou, bordering Qingzhou..."

Lu Chengfeng paused, his eyes somewhat deep, "Qingzhou is a bitterly cold place, bandits are rampant, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and there is no overlord force in charge."

"We are in Yuchuan County. We can recruit bandits from Qingzhou, train soldiers and horses, and expand our power. If we want to expand our influence in the future, we can also make plans for Qingzhou."

"Besides, if something happens to Yuncang in the future, if our disciples want to retreat, they can also take a detour from Qingzhou and retreat to Yuchuan. This route is safer than other routes."

"Besides, the border of Qingzhou is the West Sea. If there is really no place to stay, we can go boating on the sea and find an island."

"In this way, we can advance and retreat freely."

"Therefore, Yuchuan County is the best choice for us to establish our sect."

Du Mengyan looked at the map carefully for a long time, and slowly said: "In this case, let's start from Yuchuan County, kill Li Xiaotian, and seize Yuchuan."

Du Xiaoyue and Tan Xiong also showed excited looks on their faces. They felt full of hope and motivation, no longer as anxious and confused as before.
