910 Cursive On The Cloud (1/2)
Countless guards and soldiers rushed to the square in front of the hall, holding up their swords. They were very intimidating and well prepared to attack Ning Que.
Raising his right hand, the Sage of Calligraphy signaled the guards and soldiers to halt and said to Ning Que with no expressions on his face, ”You Tang people are indeed unreasonable.”
Ning Que smiled and asked, ”What do you mean?”
The Sage of Calligraphy frowned, ”Why do you meddle with Shanshan's marriage even though you don't want to marry her?”
Ning Que answered, ”That is because I know for sure that she doesn't want to marry the monarch of the Great River Kingdom.”
”What makes you say that?”
”Eldest Brother and I are the closest to her, and we know what she is thinking.”
”I am her teacher, and I raised her.” The Sage of Calligraphy shouted, ”How could you and Li Manman be the closest to her?”
Ning Que spread his hands and said, ”I know that Shanshan never thought of you as the closest one. It's very clear that who is the closest to her and who knows her better.”
The Sage of Calligraphy didn't want to argue with him and said indifferently, ”I don't know how escaped from the Divine Hall of West Hill. However, since you came here today, I won't let you leave.”
Ning Que thought of how surprised the Sage of Calligraphy was to see him. After hearing what the Sage of Calligraphy said at this moment, he realized that his escape still remained a secret. The Divine Hall of West Hill probably kept Academy in the dark about his whereabouts, let alone the fact that Sangsang was with him. However, it wouldn't be a secret anymore after today. What really made him feel puzzled and vigilant was that the Sage of Calligraphy revealed his intention to kill him.
”What do you mean, Your Excellency?”
The Sage of Calligraphy didn't answer him, but the emotions in his eyes turned to indifference. He thought that killing Ning Que would solve a problem for Haotian.
His Excellency w.a.n.g was not Abbey Dean of the Zhishou Abbey and didn't know the complicated relations.h.i.+p between Ning Que and Haotian. However, he was a super powerful man standing at the peak of Knowing Destiny State. He had intuition for everything, and his intuition was perfectly accurate.
Looking at the expression on the silver-haired old man's face, Ning Que quickly understood the reason. His body suddenly turned cold, not because of fear, but because he had to calm himself.
Suddenly hearing that Shanshan was about to get married, Ning Que had to do something, but he didn't expect to make such a big fuss. He couldn't just kill the monarch of the Great River Kingdom like Sangsang had suggested. The Great River Kingdom and Great Tang had enjoyed a peaceful relations.h.i.+p for generations and the Sage of Calligraphy was Shanshan's teacher. However, if the Sage of Calligraphy wanted him dead, then Ning Que would not hesitate to roughly fight back.
Ning Que respected the old man in front of the hall, not because he was Shanshan's teacher, but because his surname was w.a.n.g and he was known as the Sage of Calligraphy who was also a talisman master equivalent to Yan Se, Ning Que's master.
The Sage of Calligraphy was his predecessor and probably the strongest in the field of Fu Tao. Of course Ning Que had to respect him, but as a talisman master who learned Fu Tao, Ning Que had his own pride.
Ning Que didn't want to die and was very proud of his Fu Tao. Therefore, the battle with the Sage of Calligraphy was inevitable. He would never give up even if he were to lose.
”My master, Yan Se, once mentioned to me that Your Excellency was proficient in Fu Tao and he told me to learn from Your Excellency if I ever had the chance.” Ning Que added, ”Enlighten me please.”
The Sage of Calligraphy said, ”Yan Se might have had a chance to beat me if he was still alive, but you don't have a chance.”
Ning Que said seriously, ”You are wrong.”
The Sage of Calligraphy asked indifferently, ”Where am I wrong?”
Ning Que answered, ”The proof of the pudding is in the eating.”
The Sage of Calligraphy was stunned by the change in Ning Que's tone, which made his face darken.
The guards turned pale, with complicated emotions in their eyes, for they already knew who Ning Que was. The Great River Kingdom and Great Tang had a very close relations.h.i.+p. The Academy was not only the pride of Great Tang, but also the pride of the people of the Great River Kingdom. The Black Ink Garden and Mo Shanshan were of course also the pride of the Great River Kingdom. The people of Great River Kingdom naturally valued Mr.Thirteen from the Academy who had a much-told history with Mo Shanshan highly. However, he became an enemy today.
Ning Que dared to threaten the monarch and came to break the marriage, which made the people of the Great River Kingdom angry. However, they would be disappointed if Ning Que had not showed up. When Ning Que did show up, they were somewhat pleased and complacent rather than angry. The people of Great River Kingdom suffered mixed emotions which were hard to explain.
Ning Que didn't know what his appearance meant for the people of the Great River Kingdom and what complicated mental stimulation he brought to them. He looked at the Sage of Calligraphy in front of the hall and took a step forward.
At this time, he was separated from the Sage of Calligraphy by a distance of tens of zhang. Although he was only taking a small step forward, it meant that the battle was about to begin.
Guards and soldiers evacuated from the square and poured into the main hall, guarding the monarch behind the crowd. The complex emotions became tense at this moment, and a perfect silence prevailed the palace.
The Sage of Calligraphy was an extremely powerful human and he entered the peak of Knowing Destiny State many years ago. Ning Que was not an ordinary person either. Putting aside the skills he learned in the Academy, his talent for Fu Tao was also known all over the world. Additionally, he was the second youngest talisman master in the world.
The cultivation world always believed that a talisman master was naturally invincible in the battle of the same state, so it could be imagined how profound and horrible Fu Tao was. What would the battle between two talisman masters be like?
After all, the human world hadn't seen the battle of talisman masters for many years.
