333 Mayhem in the School (1/2)
”Like what I’ve said, what a relationship we share!” Yun Yang shook his head as he chuckled.
”Brother Lei, you and Elder Mu rest well. This young brother will continue to search for any relevant information that may be of aid. Speaking of which, it’s a shame that I can only contribute in this aspect.”
Lei Dongtian nodded and said, ”Before I made this trip, I would never have thought that I would be so fortunate. Not only could I cultivate the Seven Emotions Praxis and marry two beauties, I would receive shocking news of Celestial Beings’ bones from the Four Seasons Tower in addition to gaining a good friend – a good brother like Brother Yun! Heaven is treating me well, very well indeed!”
Yun Yang shared the same sentiment as he said, ”I didn’t expect this either. When I first met Brother Lei, I thought Brother Lei looked unapproachable and hard to get along with. Who knew that after more interaction, we would get along so well, like we’ve known each other forever! This young brother is really lucky to know Brother Lei – this life has been well lived!”
As both of their eyes met, they chortled with tacit understanding. Their laughter was filled with the sentiment of perfect coexistence and sincerity.
”What else can I ask for, when I’ve found a confidant in life?” Lei Dongtian exclaimed with a grin.
”Indeed. It’s rare to find a worthy confidant!” Yun Yang exclaimed as well, his feeling getting the better of him. ”Brother Lei, you and I – this comradeship between us, I feel like – inauspiciously, will last until death!”
Lei Dongtian nodded slowly, ”That’s right. Brothers to death!”
Beside them, Bai Yixue and Old Mu felt goosebumps on their arms.
Old Mu thought his young master behaving in an embarrassing manner; exaggeration was an understatement. It seemed that his genuine feelings had gotten the better of him; the simpering tone his master was using was somewhat unbecoming!
On the other hand, Bai Yi Xue was experiencing a set of wholly different emotions, ”What the f*ck… this Lei fellow – it looks like he’s gonna end up worse than me, much worse. Didn’t he hear what the Yun child has said, his target points to death! Still, it’s also a joy in life if I could see with my own eyes how this bastard gets tricked into his death!”
”Sigh, Yun Yang’s deceptive skills are getting better, ascending to the peak. I’m really awed and impressed. I thought I was smart, but I was manipulated from the first meeting all the way to becoming a guard… one who’s not even free to ease himself at his own will. There is a reason for all these to happen!”
Bai Yixue was utterly impressed with the skit that was being performed in front of him today. Yun Yang certainly a singularly impressive talent, which was unparalleled in this world!
…
All the way at the other end of the world, the Four Seasons Tower had begun taking action – true to the saying, they had started to subdue the world by force and bathe the martial world in blood!
On this day, at the School of Spring and Autumn – the disciples were carrying out their usual morning routines.
A cloudy fog surrounded the school gate, the place was serene and peaceful as always. The otherworldliness of the school was distinct as it stood majestically in its tranquility. Some of the disciples were training with each other while others were meditating to advance in cultivation; some of them went out to find raw food materials while others were fooling around… the higher-ups of the school were in closed-door cultivation. It was a peaceful yet industrious scene.
Suddenly, there was a glowing light that pulsed in front of their gates.
The disciples who saw it thought their eyes were playing tricks on them; they glanced around suspiciously before turning away and resumed their banter, ignoring the unusual sight…
At the very next moment, a majestic sword light streaked down from the clouds with a surging aura, stunning everyone on the spot.
A piercing voice that was laced with rich sword energy resounded in everyone’s ears, ”School of Spring and Autumn; reputable and home to many experts. I wonder if this formidable school can withstand a strike of my sword?”
As the voice ricocheted in everyone’s ears, a sword light shot like the sun’s rays against the school gate. With a loud boom, the sword energy erupted and flared around the steel.
The eight disciples on duty at the gate were the first to be greeted with the destructive force; before they could even scream, they evaporated into a blood mist, drifting in the air. The School of Spring and Autumn’s majestic gate was reduced to rubble, sending a cloud of dust into the air.
As the mist of blood and dust engulfed the atmosphere, a man in white, who looked like a fresh unsheathed sharp sword, strolled into the gate with arms behind his back, illuminated in blinding light. He spoke faintly, ”The reputable School of Spring and Autumn can’t even defend itself against stab of my sword. What is the use then? What loss is there if we do away with it?”
Inside, the school’s disciples were running helter-skelter into hiding, fearful of the terrifying individual that had appeared. The bell was struck, its sonorous boom ringing loud and far.
”Intruder! Someone has destroyed the gate in his first attack!”
”Someone has killed our men on his way in!”
”All eight senior and junior brothers on duty have been killed…”
”The intruder is an expert, inform the elders quickly!”
”Oh no!”
