My family has been wielding knives for generations, but now it's my turn to wield a pen!

"Actually... those who came for the Hidden Edge Sect are all quite different!"

Chen Songhan smiled and said, "Because there are too many things worth visiting within the Hidden Edge Sect."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai immediately became interested and asked, "Grandpa, could you explain in more detail?"

"First of all, within the Hidden Edge Sect, there is a Sword-Viewing Wall!"

Chen Songhan said, "There are techniques left behind by the masters of the Hidden Edge Sect throughout the ages. If you have enough comprehension, you can learn something from them!"

"Yes, I've heard about that!"

Jiang Xiaobai nodded slightly.

Liu Guanlan had mentioned it to him when they were at Guanlan Tower.

But... just looking at the sword wall shouldn't be enough to draw so many martial arts practitioners here.

"Within the Hidden Edge Sect, there also resides the world's number one swordsman!"

Chen Songhan slowly spoke: "The material of this blade is very unique. It has been pressed inside a mountain rock for a long time. If you want to take it away, you must rely on your own strength to pull it out!"

"I've heard of this knife too!"

Jiang Xiaobai nodded slightly.

Liu Guanlan had mentioned this point before.

"Yes, besides that, there's also the Xuanlong Gate on Hidden Peak Mountain!"

Chen Songhan said, "Those who can get there will have the opportunity to enter the Xuanlong Sect. As for what they can gain, that depends on their individual fate!"

"In addition, if one can reach a certain level, one can also receive a power transfer from the Hidden Peak Sect!"

"Transfer of skills?"

Jiang Xiaobai raised his eyebrows again.

"Hmm, but what's being transmitted isn't pure internal energy!"

Chen Songhan stroked his beard and said, "It's the Concealed Edge Force!"

"This power is said to be extremely unique. Each generation selects three elders to nurture it together, and similarly... only those who meet the conditions can receive it once!!"

"Yeah?"

Jiang Xiaobai asked with a puzzled look, "Is there anything else?"

What he was most curious about now was the purpose of Helian Zhaoyue and the others.

But what Chen Songhan said doesn't seem to make any sense.

"Yes, within the Hidden Edge Sect, there is also a library containing many legendary martial arts manuals!"

Chen Songhan began, "Finally... it's said that there's something left behind by the royal family within the sect!"

"royal?"

Jiang Xiaobai raised an eyebrow.

"yes!"

Chen Songhan nodded and said, "But I don't know the specifics!"

"After all, our Dragon Tiger Sect can only be considered the outer sect of the Hidden Edge Sect. Some of the inner sect's secrets are not something we can easily learn!"

"But what will the royal family leave behind?"

After hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai looked thoughtful.

Could it be...

Is the Northern Yu delegation here specifically for this item?

Lost in thought, Jiang Xiaobai suddenly remembered something and turned to look at the princess behind him, saying, "Ahem, do you know anything about this?"

As the eldest princess of the royal family, and also a member of the Cangfeng Sect.

They will inevitably learn more.

"I don't know!"

Upon hearing Jiang Xiaobai's words, the princess said softly, "I am but an insignificant little maid!"

"How could I possibly know such a secret matter?!"

"..."

Jiang Xiaobai looked at the princess with a helpless expression.

However, the princess clearly didn't want to talk about it, and Jiang Xiaobai didn't press her for details.

It seems we'll have to wait until the Hidden Edge Sect officially opens to find out the specifics.

In the following time, Jiang Xiaobai had a brief chat with Chen Songhan.

As noon approached, Jiang Xiaobai, along with Chen Jian, Tang Ningshuang, and the Princess, left the residence.

On the way back, Jiang Xiaobai asked the disciples of the Dragon Tiger Sect about the location of the back mountain.

The group followed the bluestone path within the sect, continuing their journey.

About an incense stick later, a wide-open space appeared before them.

A small river flows gently through the center, with lush green grass on both sides and occasional wildflowers dotting the landscape.

Looking up at the opposite side, one can see a smooth mountain wall standing tall, with the two large characters "藏锋" (Cangfeng, meaning "Hidden Edge") carved on it in a vigorous and elegant style.

Clearly, from here onwards, it belongs to Cangfeng Mountain.

And this back mountain is precisely where Longhu Mountain and Cangfeng Mountain meet.

As Jiang Xiaobai looked around, a row of tents in the distance came into view.

Outside the tent, several soldiers could be seen walking back and forth.

Several cannons were covered with black cloth and placed in the innermost position.

"Your Highness!"

At that moment, Zhang Xinnian noticed Jiang Xiaobai, and his face lit up with surprise as he quickly went to greet him.

"Um!"

Jiang Xiaobai nodded and patted Zhang Xinnian on the shoulder, saying, "Didn't I tell you all to stay inside the sect? Why are you all staying here?"

"Your Highness, there are over a hundred of us!"

Zhang Xinnian grinned and said, "It wouldn't be quite right if they all went to the Dragon Tiger Sect!"

"This place is spacious and the environment is nice, so we might as well set up camp here!"

"Thank you for your hard work!"

Jiang Xiaobai spoke up.

"Your Highness, what are you saying!"

Zhang Xinnian chuckled and said, "Back in the Northern Frontier, conditions were truly harsh!"

"This place has mountains and water; setting up camp here is pure bliss!"

Then, Zhang Xinnian asked curiously, "Young Master, is there something you want to say?"

"Oh……"

After listening, Jiang Xiaobai briefly told Zhang Xinnian about the Dragon-Tiger Battle and the Zhenfeng Envoy's matter three days later.

"That's wonderful!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xinnian's eyes lit up immediately: "Your Highness, you don't know, what I like most right now is firing cannons!"

"I hope these江湖 (jianghu) figures will put in a good job so I can fire a few more shots!!"

"..."

Jiang Xiaobai was both amused and exasperated.

While most people prefer to avoid trouble, Zhang Xinnian is already hoping someone will cause trouble.

Since it was noon, Jiang Xiaobai was not in a hurry to leave.

At this moment, he finally understood why Zhang Xinnian had said that this place was a place of enjoyment.

Beside the tent, a cart full of wine jars was parked.

Several soldiers had set up a fire by the river, cleaning the fish they had just caught and roasting them on it.

Jiang Xiaobai had barely eaten anything that morning, and the smell of grilled fish made him quite hungry, so he simply sat down with the fish.

Having a few drinks and some grilled fish is indeed a very enjoyable experience.

Half an hour later, Jiang Xiaobai, having eaten and drunk his fill, clapped his hands and prepared to leave with the three of them.

But just then, the princess suddenly raised her head and looked up at the top of Cangfeng Mountain.

Jiang Xiaobai noticed this and followed her gaze.

At the highest point of Cangfeng Mountain, a figure in a white dress stood quietly.

A mountain breeze blew, and the white dress fluttered gently.

Although the distance was so great that he couldn't see her face clearly, Jiang Xiaobai still recognized her at a glance.

It was that esteemed scholar from the lakeside pavilion!

Jiang Xiaobai was surprised for a moment, then waved his arm as a greeting.

He originally thought the other party wouldn't pay any attention.

But unexpectedly, this expert also raised his hand a moment later and gestured in his direction...
