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

At this moment, inside the Hidden Edge Sect.

Feng Jitong, who had returned to the peak, had a furrowed brow.

Indeed, the scene of that cannon blast hitting the mountain was still vivid in his mind.

He was puzzled. How could that lump of iron have such great power?

"My Lord Heaven!"

A man following behind Feng Jitong hesitated for a moment before respectfully asking, "Should we report this to the Sect Master?"

"this……"

Feng Jitong stopped in his tracks, his expression changing.

This matter absolutely needs to be reported.

But... the problem is, how should he say it?!

Did he come back because he was scared by the cannons?

He was, after all, a Heavenly Elder of the Hidden Edge Sect. How embarrassing would it be if this got out?

Just as Feng Jitong was pondering, an old woman holding a wooden cane came from a distance.

"See Master Cheng Tian!"

The men following behind Feng Jitong bowed their heads and spoke respectfully upon seeing the old woman.

"Um!"

After landing, Cheng Yanqiu responded softly, then looked at Feng Jitong and said, "Feng Jitong, didn't you go down to check the situation?"

"How is it?"

"This...this goes without saying, it's an easy win!!"

Feng Jitong chuckled faintly and said, "The moment I stepped down, those martial arts practitioners below were so intimidated that their legs went weak!"

"In short, everything below has been completely settled, and I believe... well, there shouldn't be any more trouble!"

what?

Feng Ji and the others behind him all froze for a moment.

No, weren't they scared back by Jiang Xiaobai using cannons?

How come it became "easily captured" in Tian Lao's mouth?!

One of the men opened his mouth as if to say something, but when he saw Feng Jitong's gaze sweep over him, he swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

"Oh?"

Cheng Yanqiu was somewhat surprised, then nodded and said, "No wonder you came back so quickly!"

"but……"

Cheng Yanqiu looked at Feng Jitong with a puzzled expression and asked, "Why were there so many strange noises coming from down the mountain just now?"

Yes, the noise was huge, and it was awe-inspiring!

"this……"

Feng Jitong's expression stiffened slightly, then he waved his hand and said, "It was just a few little gadgets that made a few noises, nothing to worry about, nothing to worry about!"

"..."

The people standing at the back exchanged glances, their expressions becoming even stranger.

A gadget?

But that little thing almost leveled a mountain!

However, with Feng Jitong standing right in front of them, they still didn't dare to expose him and could only keep their heads down.

"Oh……"

Although Cheng Yanqiu sensed that the atmosphere was a bit off, she didn't press the matter further and instead said, "Alright, the sect leader has summoned us to the main hall for a meeting!"

"Now that things have been settled down the mountain, let's go together!"

"good!"

Feng Jitong responded and, without giving the others behind him a chance to speak, left with Cheng Yanqiu.

……

The main hall of the Zangfeng Sect is located next to a waterfall.

The waterfall cascades down from a higher mountain, and the spray shimmers softly in the sunlight.

The main hall of the Cangfeng Sect is a wooden house.

This wooden house has a unique design, with many knife marks carved all around.

At this moment, three people were already sitting in the lobby.

When Feng Jitong and Cheng Yanqiu entered, an elderly man dressed in purple looked up and asked, "Elder Feng, there was quite a commotion down the mountain just now. How did your investigation go?"

"good!"

Feng Jitong nodded without changing his expression, then went to his seat and sat down without continuing.

The old man in purple was stunned.

Is just one sound enough?

What kind of answer is that?

Was the investigation completed, or not?!

The old man in purple wanted to ask more questions, but seeing that Feng Jitong seemed unwilling to talk, he ultimately didn't speak.

Not long after, a light breeze stirred outside.

A figure in a white dress swept past the doorway, her dress swaying gently in the wind, and finally landed on the main seat in the lobby.

"Greetings, Sect Master!"

The five people present saw the woman in the white dress and stood up at the same time, speaking respectfully.

"Yes, please sit down!"

Chu Qingci responded softly, and after everyone sat down again, she said, "Hidden Peak Mountain will officially open in three days!"

"There are quite a few forces involved this time, so the rules... need to be arranged in advance!"

"yes!"

The five people present nodded in agreement.

"in addition……"

Chu Qingci paused briefly before continuing, "This time, when Hidden Edge Mountain opens, I plan to add another condition!"

Upon hearing this, all five people present were taken aback.

At this moment, Chu Qingci slowly said, "If someone possesses more than twenty Hidden Edge Tokens..."

"Then you can receive a transmission of the Concealed Edge Technique!"

what?

Everyone present was taken aback, and their expressions changed.

The Hidden Edge Force is a unique power cultivated by several elders within the sect, and ordinary martial artists have no way of accessing it.

Unexpectedly, Chu Qingci actually took this item out this time.

Twenty Concealed Edge Tokens...

Isn't this number too high?

It would be quite impressive if each sect could produce three or four of them.

If a person wants to collect twenty coins, he can only do so by constantly stealing them from the others.

Otherwise, how easy would it be to actually do it?

After a moment of silence in the hall, Cheng Yanqiu hesitated before saying, "Sect Master, I have no objection to using the Hidden Edge Skill as a reward!"

"Just twenty Concealed Edge Tokens... isn't that a bit too demanding?"

After a pause, Cheng Yanqiu added, "I think lowering the price a bit would give more people something to look forward to!"

"No need!"

Chu Qingci gently shook her head and said, "At least twenty!"

"If the conditions aren't stringent, how can one be worthy of the Concealed Edge skill?"

"Yes, Sect Master is absolutely right!"

The five people present exchanged glances and finally nodded in agreement.

"besides……"

After a moment of silence, Chu Qingci spoke again: "If someone were lucky enough to get twenty-four..."

At this point, Chu Qingci hesitated slightly: "Then let him enter the Xuanlong Sect!"

What?

The expressions of the people present turned to surprise once again.

Xuanlong Gate is a very important place for their Cangfeng Sect. Even the sect's disciples are not allowed to enter at will.

Now, Chu Qingci is actually willing to open up to the outside world?

But aren't the requirements for these twenty-four Concealed Edge Orders even more outrageous?!

How many people would it take to win the Hidden Edge Token to achieve this!

After a brief silence, the five people below couldn't help but whisper among themselves.

Feng Jitong frowned, just about to ask a question, but Chu Qingci's voice rang out.

"It's settled then!"

Chu Qingci's gaze swept over the people present, her expression remaining calm: "Of course, if any of you have any objections, you can speak up!"

At this point, Chu Qingci paused slightly.

"But... I won't listen!!"
