Madam, please ascend.

Chapter 184 A blind eye

This person's face was somewhat similar to Bu Lianjin of later generations, which made Yun Yi feel as if he was in another world, as if he had met an old friend in real life in the scroll.

Wang Shenlai was horrified and said, "Brother Bu?! Aren't you dead?!"

The man known as Senior Brother Bu was a middle-aged, down-and-out man, dressed in tattered clothes, with a tired look on his face.

This man and Senior Brother Chen who guards the Jianqi Forest are known as the "Bu Chen Twin Pillars" of Zhujian Villa. However, he died in a fight ten years ago, and the people in the villa were sad about it for a long time.

Why didn't he die but appeared in the sword fighting cave?

Wang Shenlai said in disbelief: "A trick?"

Senior Brother Bu, who had faked his death for many years, smiled bitterly and said, "It's indeed a trick. This is the owner's intention."

Ten years ago, the owner of the manor, Zhu Yong, decided to retreat to forge swords. In order to avoid any accidents, he ordered his beloved disciple to fake his death and escape. From then on, he turned into a ghost in the sword-making cave who only knew how to forge swords.

It was because Senior Brother Bu was naturally steady that he was able to take on such an important task. He worked day after day in the Sword Fighting Cave for a full ten years, and even hid it from everyone in the villa.

This includes the great elder who takes care of affairs, and also Wang Shenlai, who has a blood relationship with Zhu Yong.

Wang Shenlai asked, "Where is my father?"

Senior Brother Bu shook his head: "I can't say it, I can't say it. When the time comes, the owner of the manor will show up."

Wang Shenlai angrily said, "It's not time for the villa to be besieged?! Moreover, this disaster was caused by him in the first place!"

Senior Brother Bu: "We are just swordsmiths and never participate in human conflicts. How can we be wrong?"

Wang Shenlai: "Don't you understand? It's wrong for you to hold a heavy weapon. Even if you don't kill with your sword, those people want to take it for themselves!"

Senior Brother Bu lowered his eyebrows: "Even so, the Villa is not at fault."

In just a few words, the strange fire had spread from the bottom of the villa to the top. In an instant, the flames were raging, mixed in the gray and black clouds, as if the world was on fire!
The strength of the enemies invading this time is comparable to the decisive battle between good and evil. Among them are several people in the Hedao realm, who come from the righteous path, the evil sect, the Qin Dynasty, and even an unknown cultivator who has disappeared for many years.

Those below the Hedao realm naturally knew that they could not compete for the divine sword, so they set their sights on those cultivation resources and tried to compete for the treasures.

The Jianqi Forest was especially targeted, as there were countless ownerless swords there. Even if one was lucky enough to seize one, it would be enough to change one's fate.

The masters of the Hedao realm rushed straight to the sword-fighting cave. Obviously, they did not expect that this was just a decoy, and the real Zhu Yong and the divine sword that was about to appear in the world had no idea where they were.

Poor Sword Casting Villa has less than a thousand disciples, and it seems so insignificant in the face of these aggressive and robber-like monks.

But even among these less than a thousand people gathered together, no one retreated and no one betrayed.

Some of them used swords, while others used hammers, which were more convenient. There were no fancy magic weapons, only these simple things.

Facing the invading enemy, all the disciples knew that it was the unusual celestial phenomena that attracted these people, and they wanted to seize the sword.

The sword is the lifeblood of the Sword Forging Villa. There is no difference between taking the sword and killing them!
Senior Brother Bu had anticipated this situation since he took over the manor master's retreat. He sighed to Wang Shenlai, "Find a place to hide. You can't get involved here."

Those who were trying to grab the sword in the air covered their faces. It was obvious that they also knew that today's events were not glorious, and that once they got the magic sword, it would bring countless disasters.

Seeing this, Yun Yi sighed, "Even if one of them takes the divine sword, they will be immediately besieged by the others. How long can they hold out?"

Wang Shenlai looked at the completely destroyed villa and said sadly, "They have been blinded by greed and have forgotten even life and death."

He was not only referring to the invaders, but also to the disciples of the Sword Casting Villa.

They are all greedy people, and they all want a magic sword.

Yet, no one cared about the price paid for the arrival of the divine sword. In a flash, the Great Elder and Senior Brother Bu each took on a Dao-Unifying Realm cultivator, and they engaged in a battle in the sky, their momentum so immense that it seemed as if they were about to tear the sky apart!
Senior Brother Chen flew his sword to the Sword Qi Forest to continue his mission of guarding the ownerless swords.

The entire Sword-Forging Villa was thrown into turmoil, with only the Ascension Sword remaining standing.

Yun Yi watched the scene unfold, realizing that this was likely the final fate of the Sword Forging Villa. It had been destroyed by the imminent arrival of a new divine sword, but he wondered where that sword and its owner, Zhu Yong, were now.

Wang Shenlai suddenly said, "I'm going to find him."

"Where to go?"

"Let's go to Zongheng Building first."

Yun Yi understood what he meant and knew that the place Wang Shenlai went to most often in recent years was Zongheng Tower, so he was afraid of encountering a dark situation and wanted to go there first.

The battle situation in the Sword Fighting Cave was extremely chaotic. Wang Shenlai and Yun Yi's cultivation was not enough to influence the situation at all. They could only leave here quickly and go to Zongheng Tower.

Unexpectedly, the small building that houses the collection of swordsmanship from all over the world also welcomed a lone master of the Hedao realm.

The New Year's Eve sword formation was extremely powerful, isolating the flames and protecting the collection of books from any damage.

However, there was a person in the Hedao realm who did not want to go to the sword cave to join in the fun, but insisted on coming here to seize the sword secrets.

Fortunately, the sword servant never left this place from beginning to end. He was not very interested in the magical weapons made by Zhu Yong. He just wanted to stay here and read a few more books before he died.

At the same time, he hopes that a book hidden in a corner can help him solve the confusion of his life.

As a loud thunder fell outside the building, it should be the magical power displayed by someone in the Hedao realm, and the noise was quite loud.

The door of Zongheng Building was also slowly pushed open by a hand.

The candlelight illuminated the man's face, which was unremarkable. He held a tattered sword in his hand.

At first glance, he is just a swordsman.

But the sword servant recognized this person at a glance.

It was the person in Hedao Realm that he had been thinking about and searching for for many years!

He is not only his savior, but also the person who helps him cut off the cause and effect, and even more so the master of the Tao!
But when the sword servant looked at this person, a look of surprise flashed across his face.

Why?

I finally found my benefactor, but it turned out to be a situation like this?

The Sword-Forging Villa was under siege and fell into chaos. The people who came to Zongheng Tower at this moment were naturally those who took advantage of the situation to rob.

Why would the sword immortal, who saved people so easily and was full of vigor and vitality, do such a thing?
The sword servant didn't understand. At this moment, he felt as if his mind had been hit hard and was almost about to collapse.

He had guarded Zongheng Tower for so many years that he had long considered it his second home. Although he had never said so, the disciples of Zhujian Villa had always been respectful to him, and the young master, Wang Shenlai, was even a close friend.

On one side is his benefactor, on the other side is his family, and the sword servant is finally caught in an unprecedented dilemma.

So much so that for a moment, he looked at the nameless swordsman and didn't know what to say.

He finally asked, "Do you...remember me?"

The nameless swordsman didn't even glance at the sword servant. He just scanned the entire Zongheng Building and casually replied, "I don't remember."
