Zongwu: Storytelling makes you stronger, and female knights compete to be maids

Chapter 75: Infuriating

"Chen Feng, the second senior brother of the Sword Sect who had a close friendship with Wuming, was brutally murdered by Pojun during a sparring match."

"There was a woman named Xiaoyu who fell in love with Wuming. Pojun intended to force her to marry him, but luckily Wuming intervened in time, preventing tragedy."

"There are countless such sinister tactics."

"Although Jian Hui knew that Po Jun's actions were not good, he always showed partiality and indulged him, causing his disciples to feel resentful and demoralized."

"Twenty years passed like this, and Wuming had become a legendary figure respected by everyone in the martial arts world, and was recognized as the first successor of the Sword Sect."

"But Jian Hui still refused to give up 'Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin', so he proposed that Wuming and Pojun compete, and the winner would obtain this unique skill."

"In order to demonstrate fairness, Jian Hui also invited martial artists to witness it."

"The venue for the competition will be the Ice Cave deep within the Sword Sect."

"Pojun has the advantage of weapons and terrain, and Jianhui has specially authorized him to teach the Sword Sect's top martial art, "Ten Thousand Swords to the Emperor."

"But what Jian Hui and Po Jun didn't anticipate was that Wuming had cultivated diligently for twenty years and his skills had already reached a level that they could hardly reach."

"After only a dozen or so moves, Wuming completely controlled the situation."

"Recalling the tragic death of his senior brother, Wuming suddenly felt murderous intent and wanted to kill Pojun in one fell swoop."

"At this critical moment, Jian Hui, desperate to protect her son, violated the sect's rules and tried to save him, even throwing the jade pendant Wuming had given her upon joining the sect to stop him."

"Wuming, mindful of their relationship as master and disciple, withdrew his sword before the battle. However, the aftermath of the sword's energy still slashed across Pojun's face, leaving a scar that would last a lifetime."

"Jian Hui's attack ultimately became a scandal in the martial arts world. If it gets out, it will surely ruin her reputation."

"To prevent this from being leaked, Jian Hui frantically unleashed the Sword Sect's supreme martial art, the 'Heaven-Returning Ice Art,' completely freezing the entire ice cave."

"All the martial arts heroes who came to congratulate us, along with all the disciples of the Sword Sect, were frozen in the ice."

"Only two people on the periphery, Pojun and Wuming, managed to escape."

"This is the real reason why the Sword Sect was destroyed back then."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an exclamation in the hall.

The truth is so unexpected!

The Sword Sect twenty years ago, just like the Holy Sword Sect two hundred years ago, was not destroyed by external enemies, but was defeated by its own people.

The difference is,

Huangfu Jian, the leader of the Holy Sword Sect, was framed by the Heavenly Dao and became possessed by the devil, which led to him devouring the entire sect with his sword energy.

The Sword Sect's leader, Jian Hui, was a completely mentally disturbed and mad man. Just to preserve his reputation, he personally destroyed the Sword Sect that had been passed down for seven hundred years.

Who would do such a thing?

But in the final analysis, the source of all these sins is still that Pojun!

This person is so despicable and shameless that he is almost on par with Jiang Biehe and Long Xiaoyun, and is truly despicable.

Thinking that the mighty Sword Sect, this holy place of swordsmanship that had been the best in the world for seven hundred years, was destroyed by this father and son, all the heroes in the martial arts world could no longer suppress their anger.

In an instant, the entire hall was filled with voices rebuking Pojun and Jianhui:

"Oh my god! This Pojun is simply the most shameless villain I have ever heard of. He actually threatened Senior Wuming's mother. Is this something a normal person could do?"

"Senior Wuming is still too merciful. A sinister person like Pojun should have been eliminated long ago to set things right!"

"That Jian Hui isn't a good guy either. If he hadn't blindly favored Po Jun, how could things have developed to this point?"

"I never thought that the real reason for the Sword Sect's demise was this. It really makes me angry!"

"Since the founding of the sect by the Great Sword Master, the Sword Sect has weathered seven hundred years of storms and remained undefeated. But to be destroyed in this way is truly heartbreaking!"

"Could it be that Senior Wuming was so disheartened by this incident that he retired from the martial arts world and went into seclusion?"

"This Broken Army deserves to be hacked into pieces. Not only has he destroyed the Sword Sect that is revered by the world, but he has also caused the Han Dynasty to lose a martial arts legend."

"Those martial arts masters who attended the ceremony were so unlucky. They didn't do anything wrong, yet they were buried with the Sword Sect."

On the white jade platform,

Su Chen took a sip of the fragrant tea and waited until everyone's discussion came to an end before he said loudly:

"This Pojun is far more despicable than you can imagine."

"He knew his martial arts skills were inferior to Wuming's, and he couldn't bear the humiliation, so he secretly poisoned Wuming's wife, Xiaoyu, and killed her."

"This poison originates from Japan and is extremely rare. It has no name and no knowledge of its true nature. People simply believe it is a curse in their fate that has killed their loved ones."

"He was deeply devoted to his wife. After Xiaoyu's death, he became disheartened and retired from society. He opened a Zhonghua Pavilion in the city and lived out the rest of his life in peace."

"If you meet a lonely man playing the erhu in the Zhonghua Pavilion, he will be the martial arts legend Wuming."

"It is worth mentioning that,"

“Wuming has the bloodline of the mythical phoenix in his body, and his lifespan far exceeds that of ordinary people.

Although he is already sixty years old, his appearance still remains in his thirties."

"Su once said that there is more than one way to immortality in the world."

"Practicing immortal skills is one of them."

"Integrating the blood of certain mythical beasts can also significantly prolong lifespan, and this is considered the second method of achieving immortality."

"And during these twenty years of seclusion, Wuming has never truly left the world."

"There was once a Japanese hero named Jue Wushen who led 5,000 elite soldiers from the Wushen Jue Palace to sneak into the Han territory, intending to disrupt the martial arts world."

"Wuming was alone, intercepting them with his sword, and killing all five thousand masters."

"Jue Wushen was so frightened that his heart and courage shattered, he fled back to Japan in panic. From then on, he regarded Wuming as a god and dared not set foot in the Han Dynasty again."

“There was also a powerful person who had cultivated to the seventh level of the Heavenly Demon Divine Power and intended to come out and slaughter everyone in the martial arts world.”

"Wu Dandao went to the meeting and played against him, ultimately winning by a narrow margin and shattering the plans of the seventh realm expert."

“It is difficult to list all such deeds.”

"This is the responsibility of Wulin Legend Wuming."

"Although he lives far away from the world, he has provided protection for the Han people countless times."

There was dead silence in the hall of Zijin Building.

Su Chen's words revealed so many secrets that it was difficult for everyone to accept them for a while.

It turns out that Wuming Fengjian retired not because of the destruction of the Sword Sect, but because of the death of his beloved wife Xiaoyu.

Xiaoyu was brutally killed by Pojun.

Broken Army!!

Countless big men and heroes in the hall gnashed their teeth, their eyes almost spitting out anger.

They never imagined that there would be such despicable and shameless people in the world.

Pojun's behavior has already fallen below the bottom line in everyone's mind.

Although he is the son of the leader of the Sword Sect, he bullies his fellow disciples, harms his brothers and sisters, and forcibly seizes other people's wives.

He threatened Wuming with his mother and forced Wuming, whose dantian was broken, to take his palm strike.

Unable to defeat him, he secretly poisoned Wuming's wife.

Is there anyone in the world who is more vicious and shameless than Pojun?

Many heroes in the martial arts world immediately listed Pojun as one of the three most treacherous people in the world, along with Jiang Biehe and Long Xiaoyun.

In an instant, everyone started talking:

"This Pojun is so shameless! I wish I could tear him into pieces with my own hands!"

"Senior Wuming was terribly harmed by Pojun. His sect was destroyed and his wife was lost. Pojun is truly despicable!"

"Po Jun is cunning and vicious. He actually used an extremely rare Japanese poison to make Senior Wuming mistakenly believe that he had killed his wife."

"Yes! Wuming still doesn't know the truth. I'm afraid he has been living in self-blame for the past twenty years."

"Mr. Su said that Senior Wuming is living in seclusion in the Zhonghua Pavilion. Does anyone know where the Zhonghua Pavilion is? We must tell Senior Wuming the truth!"

"I checked the Zhonghua Pavilion. There is indeed a musician there who plays the erhu in a sad and mournful way. I didn't expect it to be Senior Wuming himself!"

"If Senior Wuming knew that it was Pojun who killed his wife, he would definitely reappear in the martial arts world and cut Pojun into pieces."

"That's right. Po Jun is far from being a match for Senior Wuming. As long as Senior Wuming really attacks, he will definitely die."

"I'm going to the Zhonghua Pavilion now to deliver a letter to Senior Wuming. Is there anyone willing to come with me?"

...

Amidst the noise, a group of heroic swordsmen actually stood up and left the Purple Gold Tower.

They were going to rush to Zhonghua Pavilion to tell Wuming about Pojun's despicable behavior.

However, not everyone is angry with Pojun.

What really shocked everyone was what Su Chen said next.

The martial arts legend Wuming actually has the blood of the mythical beast Phoenix. His lifespan far exceeds that of ordinary people. He is sixty years old but looks only in his early thirties.

This secret is really too shocking.

Who would have thought that Wuming would become the second person on the Sword Immortal List to possess the ability of immortality after Huang Jian Yanfei of the Sui Dynasty.

His long lifespan was not due to any cultivation techniques, but came from the blood of the divine beast in his body.

In other words - this is the second way to immortality!

Although Su Chen had mentioned before that there is more than one method of immortality in the world.

But when they actually heard about this second way of achieving immortality, they still couldn't help but feel shocked from the bottom of their hearts.

The mythical beast Phoenix!

Does such a legendary beast really exist in this world?
