Chapter Three Hundred and Nineteen – If You Want A Fight, Fight! (2/2)
The shouts came like a tide.
———
These Little Mountain Jie xiuzhe that had come to help were very excited at this time. All of the surviving xiuzhe from Little Mountain Jie were ningmai, and they were in their forties or above. They were used to the way of the world. However, none of these people could keep their composure. Fei Shan was not an exception. He found he could not calm down.
He suddenly recalled the magnificent battles at Golden Crow City. They were deeply embedded in his heart. He still remembered his emotions at that time, especially when the City Master had led everyone to swear at the Clear Sky Old Forefather. He had imagined how exhilarating it would be to fight under the command of the Master of Golden Crow City. He hadn’t thought such a day would really come. He was very excited.
The Master of Golden Crow City looked to be in his early twenties. Among these fifty and sixty year old ningmai, he was somewhat outrageously young. But this youth that was outrageously young seemed to have a charisma that made people trust and obey him, and to be willing to fight for him!
The Sky Water Jie xiuzhe jumped in fright, and hurriedly rode their swords to flee.
———
In a short while, all of the Sky Water Jie xiuzhe had left the enormous Hundred Flower Valley. This change was so sudden that some Little Mountain Jie xiuzhe were too excited and wanted to chase before they were pulled back by their fellows.
“Stop shouting! Listen to the City Master! Which of you is more able than City Master!”
“Everyone listen to the City Master!”
The heads of the little factions in this crowd of xiuzhe spoke, and those xiuzhe making a fuss instantly closed their mouths. In terms of command, no one dared to compete against Zuo Mo.
At the beginning, Zuo Mo was quite puzzled. When he was informed that these xiuzhe had all heard that he was in danger and came to help, he was dumbstruck where he stood. He was very moved. Truthfully, he had never thought of these people when he fought with Clear Sky Old Forefather. He just did it for himself.
So he had never thought these people would remember this.
His heart was very warm. The darkness created by Hundred Flower Alliance was swept away. The sun seemed much brighter. He bowed towards the people, “This one thanks everyone here!”
This group of xiuzhe instantly became panicked.
“What is City Master doing?”
“City Master saved our lives, this is what we should do.”
“Yes, yes … …”
The people spoke over each other as they returned the bow.
After standing up, Zuo Mo swept the surroundings and said with a smile, “Let’s go down to rest!”
The people all agreed and landed on a mountain in Hundred Flower Valley.
Everyone felt very close upon seeing each other, and they were even noisier when they gathered together. Each person had a sunny smile on their face. Some chatty people had grouped together and started to converse.
The heads of some of the factions were circled around Zuo Mo as they held a discussion.
“City Master, I just received news. Cloud Divine Sect and Wood Sword Sect have gathered more than ten smaller sects and are planning to attack us tomorrow,” a faction head said worriedly. To be able to become a leader, he naturally had his talents. This leader’s abilities could not be underestimated as he was be able to place spies in Bright Water City so quickly.
Seeing many people were unmoved, he hurriedly explained the status of Cloud Divine Sect and Wood Sword Sect in Sky Water Jie. After his explanation, everyone all inhaled sharply.
Zuo Mo’s expression was normal as he raised his folded hands to this leader. “I have not asked for this big brother’s name.”
This leader said with some panic, “City Master is really troubling this one. This one is Zheng Wei. City Master can just call me by name. Don’t say anything more about big brother.”
Zuo Mo smiled. “Can Head Zheng give us some more details?”
Zheng Wei hurriedly narrated the news that he had just received from the beginning, and introduced the sects. After he finished, everyone was silent. The other side’s strength far surpassed their imagination.
If there really were so many people … …
Everyone turned to look at Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mo unconsciously furrowed his brow. He felt shocked at this news. If he had received this news in any other circumstances, he would only do one thing: take everyone and flee.
But … …
Right now, he would not flee. He was sure that if he fled, the other xiuzhe of Little Mountain Jie would become the targets to vent hatred. The xiuzhe of Sky Water Jie would use this chance to weaken the powers of the Little Mountain Jie xiuzhe until they were sure the xiuzhe of Little Mountain Jie were not a threat to them.
He previously had not felt these xiuzhe had any connection to him, but now that he knew he could not just leave and end it.
Many paper cranes suddenly flew in from the sky and into the crowd of people.
“Ha, Li Xiao Si can arrive tonight!”
“I just knew they wouldn’t be able to stop themselves. Ha ha, Old Man Yang has his brothers and is hurrying over!”
Several paper cranes flew into Zheng Wei’s hands. After Zheng Wei finished reading, he was overjoyed. He said excitedly, “City Master, they’ve all come! Everyone is coming!”
A blush came onto Gongsun Cha’s face. His smile was even more bashful and shy as his eyes flashed with an unusual brightness. Shu Long stood silently beside Zuo Mo, but his heavy breathing exposed the desire for battle inside.
Zuo Mo’s mood was unsteady. He suddenly stood up as he looked towards Bright Water City.
“Well then let’s f***ing fight!”
Translator Ramblings: This really isn’t a cliffhanger. A battle is coming and Zuo Mo’s good deed of killing Clear Sky Old Forefather has really paid off for him now.
