Chapter 531 - Great Change in Mirror Lake (1) (2/2)
“If only he could come back sooner,” Huanhuan gritted her teeth hard and said, “if Brother Ding Hao were here, he’d beat the s.h.i.+t out of these guys.”
w.a.n.g Juefeng didn’t respond to her remarks.
Nearly half a year had pa.s.sed.
He wondered how much progress Ding Hao had made in the Sage Battlefield. With his amazing talent and luck, Ding Hao must still be alive and kicking. By the time he stepped out of the Sage Battlefield, he would shock countless people.
A flicker of expectation crossed w.a.n.g Juefeng’s mind.
In addition to the faraway Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost, if the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect still had a trace of hope in the long dark period, it might be in this young guy.
If Ding Hao had incredible luck in the Sage Battlefield, he might be able to improve by leaps and bounds.
That guy could resist demonic experts, like the One-legged Ox King, when he was still a Primordial Grandmaster. If he could enter the Martial King Realm… No, even if he were a high-ranking great grandmaster, he might be able to resist the expert at the Martial Emperor Realm. As long as there was a disciple as strong as the expert at the Martial Emperor Realm, the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect’s fate could be instantly changed!
Noticing w.a.n.g Juefeng lost in thought, Huanhuan dared not disturb him again and turned to leave.
In the distance, Gao Xue’er, Nizi, and other nominal disciples were very busy dressing wounds, transporting mysterious crystals, helping inscriptionists draw inscriptions… None of the disciples under the age of 17 with strength below the Master Realm were sent to the battlefield. Instead, they were engaged in various trivial but extremely important logistics work.
It was said that some people had proposed to arrange them to practice on the battlefield, but was rejected by their head master, Li Jianyi.
“These disciples are the hope of our sect, and they have not yet grown up. Even when it is necessary for the elders and chiefs to go to battle, we will not let them die in vain!” At the critical moment in the sect, Li Jianyi, the head leader, highlighted the dignity and courage of the grandmasters of martial arts of Snow Province with his words.
The sky was thick with snow.
Inside the pa.s.s of the Pink Gold, all disciples of the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect were busy.
Zhong Dajun, the most powerful boss in front of the curtain of the Heavenly World in the third-stage market, was also busy back and forth among the crowd. This time he did not hide his things, but contributed all the weapons, armor, and goods that could be used in war.
“I am the boss of the Heavenly World, but I am also a disciple of the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect. I’m sure if Brother Ding Hao were here, he’d agree with me!”
Zhong Dajun’s voice equally contained much more strength.
Under his leaders.h.i.+p, the bosses of shops of all sizes in the markets of all stages had made generous contributions and organized groups to support the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect.
Many people were well aware that if the sect was captured, the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect would be sacked. When a bird’s nest is overturned, no egg can remain intact, and they, too, would be plundered. If they did not unite at this time, they would die.
It was at Mirror Lake in Snow Province, the holy land for human warriors.
The Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Villa, which was located by the side of Mirror Lake, had been under heavy security.
The atmosphere in the villa had become grim since four days earlier, when a bleeding, unconscious, wounded disciple of the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect was sent to the villa and met the master, Huang s.h.i.+xiong. At intervals, there were men on guard, and swordsmen holding long swords patrolled back and forth; also the formation protecting the villa had been quietly launched.
On that day, when the sun was rising, the master, Huang s.h.i.+xiong went out in a hurry as he had done on the previous days.
He didn’t come back until sunset.
Seeing her father back, Huang Rong, who was standing at the door of the hall, immediately rushed over, and loudly asked, “Father, how is it going? Have you seen Sir Inspector?”
Huang s.h.i.+xiong sighed and shook his head.
“Master, you are back!”
“Master, have you seen Inspector Ding?”
“Elder Huang, answer us quickly. The sect won’t hold out much longer…”
The hall was packed with people.
They were the most elite disciples of the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Villa, including Huang s.h.i.+xiong’s disciples, and the experts sent by the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect to settle in the villa. They all looked anxious. As Huang s.h.i.+xiong came in, hundreds of pairs of eyes looked at him.
Huang s.h.i.+xiong frowned and shook his head gently.
In the crowd, Huang Jin, the disciple of the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect, who had gone through thousands of miles and risked his life to fight in order to come here to report the news, felt a twinge of despair. He said anxiously, “Elder Huang, you must find a way. It’s been six days. For every quarter of an hour we delay here, many disciples of our Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect on the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Mountain are killed by those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds…”
