Embers of Sword

Chapter 135: Warriors and Law Enforcers

"you……"

The Lord of Wangyou Island looked at Tongtian Palm Law and was speechless for a moment. He could only sit back behind the stone table angrily.

Martial artists who practice physical training have always been domineering and unscrupulous.

He was not afraid of fighting with Tongtian Zhanglu at all, and was even looking forward to it.

But if this fight really alarmed Chunyang, the fight would turn into a beating.

As the saying goes, people under the roof have to bow their heads.

"That's all."

After a long moment, the warrior from Wangyou Island sighed deeply and waved his hand nonchalantly, pretending to give up. "...Children will eventually grow up, and it's a good thing for them to have their own ideas. If he really wants to learn swordsmanship, it's better for him to join the Dasui Sword Palace than to go to Nanli."

"In fact, I saw your child when he entered the mountain. This boy has a strong foundation and good talent, and is suitable for learning swordsmanship."

The straightforward Tongtian Zhanglu really took the bait: "If he likes someone, I will ask him to become his disciple directly."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, the Lord of Wangyou Island narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Are you serious?"

"nature……"

After Zhang Lu said the two words, he frowned slightly, and a bad feeling arose in his heart.

"This kid has always had his own ideas."

The master of Wangyou Island said sincerely: "He likes Xie Xuanyi. In the early years on the island, he insisted on learning swordsmanship. I made up a set of sword manuals, saying that it was taught by Xie Xuanyi himself... He regarded it as a treasure and practiced it for several years without knowing what was going on. He couldn't let it go. Brother Tongtian, what's wrong with you?"

When he heard Xie Xuanyi's name, Tongtian Zhanglu almost spit out his tea.

He stared at the warrior in front of him unhappily, "Duan, are you here to cause trouble on purpose? Where can I find Xie Xuanyi for you?"

"Should I take him back to Forget-Sorrow Island?"

Island Master Duan laughed and repeated his old trick: "I will take care of my own son, so as to save you the trouble..."

"Xie Xuanyi was buried in the North Sea ten years ago."

Tongtian Zhanglu's expression was very complicated at the moment. "If this little fellow came all the way to Dasui Sword Palace this time to become Xie Xuanyi's disciple, it would be a waste of time... But if he is willing to become a disciple at the foot of Lotus Peak, the Sword Palace will naturally open up to Xie Xuanyi's swordsmanship practiced and Taoist scriptures studied."

The master of Wangyou Island smiled and asked, "Swordsmanship, Taoist scriptures, are they something very rare?"

The Taoist scriptures of Dashui Sword Palace are a treasure that is out of reach for those wandering cultivators in the mountains!
But for the master of Wangyou Island, this level of Yang God.

Although its foundation is not as profound as that of the Sword Palace.

But the island has all kinds of treasures of this kind, and they are by no means inferior in comparison.

"Island Master Duan must have come here in person this time for some other purpose..."

Tongtian Zhanglu picked up the teacup, slowly raised his head, looked directly into the eyes of the warrior in front of him, and said word by word: "You and I are both crude people. If you have anything to say, please speak frankly."

"Pah, who is the vulgar person?"

The Lord of Wangyou Island cursed with a smile, then immediately stopped smiling: "But you still understand me..."

He paused and asked slowly, "Is Xie Xuanyi really dead?"

"really."

Tongtian Zhanglu's expression was calm: "Ten years ago, countless people saw him die in the North Sea after his vitality was exhausted."

"I'm here in person at Dasui, can I get some different insider information?"

The Lord of Wangyou Island sighed and said, "Brother Zhanglu can rest assured. No information about Duan's trip will be leaked. Wangyou Island has always been isolated from the outside world and has nothing to do with the Dachu royal family... This visit is just a personal act."

"You also know that as a father, I always want to do my best for my son. This kid just worships Xie Xuanyi for no reason. I really can't stop him. I can only let him do it."

I kept talking about this.

Tongtian Zhanglu had a headache after hearing this and couldn't help interrupting: "So you came to the Sword Palace in person to let me tell you that Xie Xuanyi is alive, so that your son can worship Xie Xuanyi as his master?"

"...Ahem."

The owner of Wangyou Island coughed lightly. He didn't say it explicitly, but everything was implied.

"You must be really crazy."

The Chief Lawyer said coldly, "Even if a god comes, it will be useless if Xie Xuanyi dies. It would be more realistic to ask him to worship the head of Chunyang Sect."

"I don't mind him taking Chunyang as his master, but the head of Chunyang is too old..."

The Lord of Wangyou Island explained helplessly: "Don't get me wrong, I don't have any other meaning. It's just that in the eyes of today's young people, these old 'big shots' are far less attractive than Xie Xuanyi."

The lawyer had nothing to say.

Because what the owner of Wangyou Island said was true.

In the great world ten years ago, Xie Xuanyi stole the limelight... Who wouldn't like such a young swordsman?
"Why do you have such an idea? Do you think that Xie Xuanyi is not dead, and the Sword Palace has been closed for these years in order to 'shelter and hide' him?"

The Chief Lawyer frowned and said, "To tell you the truth, let alone you coming in person, even if the Golden Immortal came, it would be useless... This is not a matter of face, Xie Xuanyi is really dead."

"Is this so..."

The island master of Wangyou Island knows who Zhanglu is.

This person has always been honest, never lies, and disdains to lie.

He already had the "answer".

"No matter what, I have to thank Zhang Lu for his hospitality tonight. Da Sui's tea is good, and tastes better than in previous years."

The middle-aged warrior stood up and looked towards the Lotus Peak meaningfully: "My kid has grown up, I am too lazy to care about him. If he insists on staying, let him worship at the Lotus Peak."

The Chief Lawyer put his hands behind his back and stood up, level with the Lord of Forget-Your-Sorrow Island.

"Senior Brother Chunyang has been in seclusion."

The Chief Lawyer reminded: "According to the rules of the Sword Palace, if you want to join Lotus Peak, I'm afraid you can only take the mountain master Huang Su as your master."

"It's better than joining Jin'ao Peak."

The Lord of Wangyou Island did not shy away from the question and said with a smile: "You, the Dasui Sword Palace, should be happy to have accepted this precious disciple. Don't think of tying him up to death. I am counting on him to return to the island in a few years to inherit the family business. Once this kid follows you, how can he ever return to the island?"

Zhang Lu had a complicated expression.

This was just a teasing, but he took it to heart. Since he became the master of Jin Ao Peak, he has hardly left the Sword Palace.

The Sword Palace is a sky-high umbrella, holding up the clear and bright dome for the thousands of sword cultivators in Dachu.

The leader is like the umbrella of a big umbrella, protecting us from wind and rain.

And he is the rib hidden under the umbrella.

It is the backbone and the pillar, like a straight sword pointing directly to the dome. The reason why this big umbrella has been able to stand so firmly for so many years.

This is inseparable from the perseverance of generations of law enforcement officers from Jinao Peak.

The chief lawyers of all generations are the "shadows" standing behind the chief priest.

"Oh, right. That Jiang Ning prince, do you need my help to deal with him?"

The Lord of Forget-Your-Sorrow Island suddenly spoke.

Tongtian Zhanglu came back to his senses.

"I heard that the Xie family of Jiangning has hooked up with a great 'big shot' in the imperial city in recent years."

The Lord of Wangyou Island said softly, "It's not easy to come to Dachu, I have to stretch my muscles... There's no point in fighting you, I want to fight someone else."

"You're going to the Imperial City to fight?"

Tongtian Zhanglu was shocked by these words.

Some time ago, the case files of the Qingzhou Incident had spread all over the country.

Chu Lin, the king of the sea, wants to sacrifice Lichao City to ascend to Yangshen and then seize the Daobi——

Once successful.

Chu Lin will enter the imperial city as a Yang God!

Now...it has just been a month since the Qingzhou Incident.

At this moment, if any Yang God tried to step into the imperial city, it would probably attract huge attention.

"Don't worry, it's just a fight, there's no harm done."

The Lord of Wangyou Island smiled and said, "I have greeted the Holy Queen. She said that she welcomes me to come and also welcomes me to compete with anyone in the Imperial City."

"I don't know what to say to you."

Tong Tian Zhang Lu said quietly, "Are you careless, or do you really not care? Is Da Chu Imperial City such an easy place to enter? Even Senior Brother Chun Yang may not dare to step in alone."

"You are you, and I am me."

The Lord of Wangyou Island said calmly, "The Dasui Sword Palace has long been in the territory of the Dachu Dynasty. For the Saint Queen, this sword is too sharp. If she can't hold it in her own hand, it's better to make it useless... But Wangyou Island is different. Whether it's Dali or Dachu, if they want to kill me, they must consider another problem, that is, after killing me, what should I do with the other person on the island, my wife? Instead of wasting your time, why not invite me to sit down and have tea."

"As the saying goes, those who are close to me are my enemies, and those who are far from me are my guests."

The Lord of Wangyou Island chuckled and looked at the Chief Lawyer: "Is this the truth?"

"That's true, but it's definitely not something a crude warrior like you can figure out."

The Chief Lawyer raised his head slightly and said sarcastically, "Your wife has taught you well. I suggest that when you go to the Imperial City this time, you can go and have a drink with Chen Jingxuan in the library. He would be happy to treat you... or more accurately, your wife."

"What a coincidence, my wife said the same thing."

The Lord of Wangyou Island was not ashamed, but proud. He smiled and said, "How many people in the world can practice the art of divination to such a level? Since she doesn't leave the island, I will do it for her and offer a cup of wine to Master Chu... But if I really go, I won't drink tea, but wine. A crude person like me can't bear to drink tea, so I should drink wine."

As he spoke, he glanced at the empty teacup beside him that was emptied in one gulp.

When the two talked about themselves up to now, they both called themselves vulgar people.

But who is really vulgar?

It's clear at a glance.

"Don't look at me. I quit drinking a long time ago."

The chief lawyer lowered his eyebrows and said softly, "You saw what happened to that disciple just now. He didn't let me drink."

"I haven't seen you for more than ten years. You have indeed changed a lot."

The Lord of Forget-Sorrow Island murmured, "I vaguely remember the last time I met you, we drank a lot and had a hearty fight... and then you actually sent all the gifts I left back to Forget-Sorrow Island intact."

Zhang Lu sneered and shook his head: "Who wants to take your boxing manual?"

"Don't even want my stuff."

The Lord of Wangyou Island turned around, looked at Zhang Lu, and asked seriously, "Is the flying sword of the Xie family in Jiangning better than my boxing manual?"

"You do not understand."

Zhang Lu spoke softly, his eyes showing a trace of hardship. "To me, even if the Supreme Saint Treasure is right in front of me, it doesn't mean much... The reason I sent a message asking him to accept this set of flying swords is to see what he will decide."

As soon as the words came out, the set of Golden Sky Mysterious Thunder hanging above the chessboard trembled slightly.

The value of this set of flying swords.

The moment it came out, it was exhausted.

The palm law flicked his sleeves lightly——

Whoosh!
This set of Jinxiaoxuanlei flying swords were uncontrollably carried away by the energy and rushed forward into the purple bamboo forest. In an instant, a dense and fierce sword intent was raised!
These flying swords are of extremely high quality!

But in the purple bamboo forest of Jin'ao Peak, their sword bodies were collided by countless sword qi, just like a blacksmith raising a heavy hammer to chisel out bursts of dazzling light. No one expected that this set of top-grade flying swords would burst out with the most brilliant light and fire in "this life" at this moment. After a moment, the light and fire were annihilated, and the Jinxiao Xuanlei was broken by the invisible pressure, falling to the ground one after another, completely reduced to scrap iron.

"How can the sword I really want to give him be compared to the mere 'Golden Sky Mysterious Thunder'?"

The Chief Lawyer glanced at the clouds in the purple bamboo forest and then looked away.

He said regretfully: "From today's perspective, Qi Lie is still too young. He needs a few more years of training, perhaps decades, before he can take on the sword I am going to give him."

"Sixty years pass by in the blink of an eye."

The Lord of Wangyou Island said calmly: "A few years, a few decades, are just a blink of an eye."
