Everyone could feel it. This is the conclusion. And all of this is a prelude to the epilogue.

Azief never acknowledged them as his disciple but the Three Devils truly thought him as a teacher.

They all have seen the peculiarities that he possesses and they believe that Azief is not some normal human.

No normal human could send a sword strike that surpasses Space and Time. Only immortals from the High heavens could do that.

They believe it to be so and they are not that far from the truth. The story that Lin Guifei told them is a story that none of them, would ever forget.

They continued on, in this journey that is slowly reaching to its end. Azief is now finally coming down to Yong.

They did not take the long road instead coming down toward Jiaping Pass

Azief had expected soldiers would ambush him when he enters the vicinity of the Pass.

But something else happened.

It seems that when he arrived, the soldiers there just let him stroll inside Yong Empire. There was no ambush. The soldiers from Liu pass not far away from the Jiaping Pass did not come out and chases him.

And Azief frowned as he just shakes his head.

He knows that unlike Emperor Wen of Zhou, the new Emperor of Yogh is a bit more manipulative and probably more scheming than his own father.

Azief had seen all kinds of people and he knows a schemer when he saw one.

Even though, that is the truth he was not worried. Simply, because he has a sword on top of his lap. With that sword, he fears nothing., Even without the sword, he will still fear nothing.

There is a lot of places that he wants to go in Yong.

He wants to go to the Sword Residence at Ruo and fought with one of the famous and strongest swordsman grandmaster of the era, Sword of Justice, Fang Jian

There is also the Yongxian Valley where the Cloud Abode is said to be situated.

Like the Temple of Xi, it is also very mysterious but one had said that it is hidden. Azief might have his Divine Sense but he will not use it for such thing.

And there is the Martial Alliance on top of the Yong Mountain. Azief had said it already to Xi Feng.

That this is an enemy that he would not fight for him.

He wanted Xi Feng to master the martial arts that he created and one day storms the gate of the Martial Alliance.

At that time, he could make his own decision. Whether to kill or to spare.

Azief and Xi Feng talk a lot when the sun comes down.

Mostly about the feeling he had after killing all of those Sun Devouring Sect members and the Vulture Peak members.

He felt only emptiness. Killing them would not bring back the children. Then what does he seeks Azief once asked.

Was it justice? Or revenge? What did you learn your martial arts for? What did you intend to do when you become strong?

Is it to foster your ambition? Is it to raise your sword against injustice? Or is it only to avenge?

When one swings the sword, why did one swing the sword? Even if it is only to fight, there is reason.

A kid that swing his fist to another kid because he is angry would say the reason why he swings his fist is because he is angry.

A simple reason but a reason after all. One had to be completely honest with oneself to see past through all the deceptions and lies that some people cover themselves up with.

But if Xi Feng were too break through the grandmaster realm, then he must ask himself tis question?

Energy would not be a problem. Even Xi Feng body could be strengthened with many practices. But the heart?

The intentions? That will lead the path that Xi Feng has to walk on later.
