Chapter 407: Which Is The Flaw? (1/2)
Chapter 407: Which is the flaw?
The South of Mist Mountain, Still water sword school.
Snowflakes were fluttering about outside. The entire Mist Mountain was blanketed in snow and ice. Everywhere was like white jade, like gla.s.s, like this was the realm of celestial beings.
Hundreds of white-clothed disciples were kneeling among the ice and snow from the door of the hall of the Sword G.o.d to the Divine sword plaza.
The white clothes were like snow, the snow was more beautiful than the white robes.
The atmosphere in the main hall of the Sword G.o.d was more dignified. The snow was unable to enter the hall, but the pillars inside and the people seemed to have been frozen solid.
In the center of the hall, a white jade ice coffin was placed.
The coffin was filled with steaming blue spirit water.
The G.o.d of sword of West Wind, the Master of the Still water sword school, Mu Yubai, was soaking in the blue water. His eyes were closed and there was not the slightest breathing detectable from his body.
A dozen of white robed men crowded around the ice coffin with a grim expressions on their faces. Their eyes contained an insuppressible, violent anger.
“That kid must have used some sort of crafty tricks. Otherwise, there is no way he could injure our Master after just one year of studying in Starry Sky Academy. It is unbelievable——” One of the three wild guests of Still Water Li Xiuwei fumed, clasping his sword tight, “regardless, first let me go sever that boy's head. Otherwise, I can't swallow this anger.”
“That boy's head is mine. No one else can take it. If they want to, first ask whether my Air breaking sword agrees or not——” One of the three wild guests, w.a.n.g Li, said coldly.
He had the closest relations.h.i.+p with Baili Changhe, as close as brothers. Since Baili Changhe had died tragically in Li Muyang's hands, and his corpse could not even be found, then no matter what, he had to avenge for his brother. “Li Muyang's head is mine.”
“We don't know how Master is now, the most important thing now is to seek treatment. You guys are just clamouring loudly here, what about Master's safety?” One of the three Still water gentlemen smiled coldly. “Is Master's life more important or is taking the boy's life more important?”
“People fis.h.i.+ng for fame, just looking for a chance to kill. Is there a need to discuss it here?” In Gentleman s.h.i.+ Tao's hand was a carved bloodstone as he said in an indifferent tone.
“This is the matter of I, Li Xiuwei, why did you sissy boys interrupt?” Li Xiuwei snapped. A wild guest was a wild guest, at the first sign of disagreement he wanted to draw his sword and kill.
“What? Do you want to fight?” w.a.n.g Li's sword was whistling in his hand like a boiling copper kettle.
“Then let's fight, do you think I'm afraid of you?”
“Baili Changhe is considered a famous person among you wild guests, but was still killed by a n.o.body, it really is——surprising.”
“s.h.i.+ Tao, what are you trying to say?”
“I didn't mean anything.”
“Are you saying that us three wild guests are inferior?”
“You said it, not me.”
“Do you dare to go out and fight with me?”
“If you have the interest, then I'm happy to accompany you.”
“That's enough.” A white robed elder roared.
Seeing Elder Chengfeng was suddenly enraged. Gentleman s.h.i.+ Tao and wild guest Li Xiuwei both stopped clamouring and dared not mutter a single word again.
Wind rider sword Li Chengfeng ran a cold glance over the several people, saying in a fierce voice. “Whether Master will survive or not is unknown, do you want to create a big disturbance? If Master survives, naturally everyone will be happy. But even if Master is not here, there is still us old guys watching——The Still water sword school has been established for thousands of years, it is not that easy for it to be overturned.”
“Elder, we did not mean that——”
“It was just that Stone man going too far——”
“Li Xiuwei——”
Wind rider sword Li Chengfeng naturally knew what these people were fighting over for.
If the Master was absent, or unconscious for a while, then there needs to be a new Master to take his position.
Young Master Mu En was currently studying in Starry Sky Academy, therefore someone had to take on the duty on his behalf. The elders were old and obsessed with cultivating and rarely cared about the worldly affairs. The ones most likely to succeed the position were the Third gentleman and the second wild guest.
The Third wild guest and third gentleman had never gotten along and extremely disliked each other. Even if they were not able to take the position, they had to show their att.i.tude of not wanting the other person to succeed. This was the source of the dispute.
“The most important matter now is the treatment of Master.” Elder Lingyun cast a worried look at Mu Yubai in the ice coffin. “Divine doctor Hua had examined him, and said that Master is in a critical state. There was the Ruyi water s.h.i.+eld protecting his body, so the tens of thousand beams of sword qi did not damage his pivotal areas. We have transferred qi into his body, which triggered the activation of essential qi of his body. Now he is soaking it in the carefree spiritual coffin, receiving treatment from the thousand year old spirit stone, which will absorb the heated toxins and internal heat in his body——According to principles, Master should have awakened already, why is he still not showing any signs of movement?”
“It really is strange.” Elder Chengeng said with a puzzled expression. “This situation, is almost unheard of. Could it——he has wounds on other parts of his body?”
“But what can we do if even Divine doctor Hua was unable to do anything?”
“This won't do——“Elder Lingyun hesitated. “Why don't we take Master to Old immortal? Maybe he'll have a solution. Besides, Master is in this calamity, Old immortal should know about it.”
“If Old immortal is going to be furious who is going to take the blame?” Elder Chenfeng quickly refused. “Besides, Old immortal has been focussing on cultivating and breaking the boundary for decades and had never cared about worldly matters. If we disturbed his cultivation, this responsibility is be too much——let's wait a little longer.”
Chengfeng's line of sight s.h.i.+fted to the ice coffin. “Perhaps after this carefree spiritual coffin had absorbed the fire poison in Master's body, he will regain consciousness?”
Swoosh—
In the hall, suddenly emerged circles of ripple.
