C66 (2/2)
”He went out? This brother of mine, where can he go on such a cold day? ”Yun Jiuchang muttered to himself, turning to leave, not forgetting to share his thoughts.” If he comes back, tell him I've come to find him … ”
Who knew that as soon as Yun Jiu Tang turned around, he would bump into Zhu Jiuyin!
The two of them were both shocked at the same time! Yun Jiu Tang staggered a few steps before feigning anger, ”What are you trying to do in broad daylight? You're scaring people to death!”
Only Candle Jiu Yin himself knew that after coming back from the Qing Qiu mountain, after days of secretly checking that the Setting Sun Sword was exhausted, the moment his mind relaxed, he revealed an opening. He then anxiously tried to cover it up with a respectful smile, ”I … I just went out, you... Why are you here? ”
Yun Jiu Tang looked at him and wanted to laugh, ”Don't think that you're lying. I just told you that you've been gone for the past few days. Where did you go to be so mysterious?”
In the end, Zhu Jiuyin was guilty, so Yun Jiuxiang's casual question only made him more nervous. As he was thinking about how to deal with it, Yun Jiu Tang spoke up, ”Ai, forget it if you don't want to say. I just came here to ask you if you recognize the fifth hidden spirit! ”
Fifth Concealment Spirit! It had been a long time since he had heard of this name. It was as if he had already broken all ties with this name since the fifth hidden spirit executed himself more than a decade ago. Now he was asking for his name. Did he already know some secret? No, it had already been more than ten years, who would still remember the secret between him and the hidden spirit?
”Why are you suddenly asking about this person?” Zhu Jiuyin quickly regained his composure and said coldly, ”Did you hear the rumors about this person back in the Qing Qiu mountain?”
”No, I'm just asking out of curiosity!”
”Haha, it doesn't matter even if you hear the rumors. This person was originally a venerable individual in the primal chaos city. He is just like the people in the primal chaos city, smart and tactful, adept at accumulating fame for himself and is just a master in pursuit of fame and profit. ”
For some reason, upon hearing Zhu Jiuyin's words, Yun Jiu Tang's face was filled with suspicion, disbelief, and anger. How was this a sworn brother? ”How did he die?”
”You may have heard a lot of rumors about this person back in the Qing Qiu mountain. In fact, this is the so-called 'Taixuan', where one would kill oneself for injustice. This person is extremely brutal, he plotted to create a tragedy in the Hundred Miles Bamboo Forest, to kill many lives in the Demon World, to kill the Immortal World and the Spirit World, and he even tried to blame the Demon World. However, in the end, he was still exposed by the masses.”
”Just think about it, a hundred lives from the Three Realms actually died in this person's hands. Even under such circumstances, the Supreme Mystery would still help to whitewash the real culprit,” Zhu Jiuyin said. After the truth is revealed, the Supreme Profound cannot withstand the pressure of the other five realms, so the hidden spirits were forced to commit suicide to apologize, thereby stabilizing the situation. ”
Yun Jiu Tang couldn't believe that these words came from Candle Jiuyin, from a brother who had become sworn brothers with the dead, ”Was the tragedy in the Hundred Miles Bamboo Forest really the work of the fifth hidden spirit?”
”Many people saw it with their own eyes! No matter how much the current Supreme Profound is decorated, this fact cannot be changed. Conspiracy is a conspiracy, and a conspiracy like this will still be known by the world hundreds of thousands of years from now! ”
”...”
Yun Jiu Tang's hands were already trembling violently, his ears were buzzing and he could not hear what Zhu Jiuyin was saying, he could only feel an endless chill coming from his body. Suddenly, his grip on the sword could no longer be controlled. With a ”hua” sound, the sword was unsheathed. The sharp and piercing sword light slashed through the cold wind, bringing with it an indescribable sense of pain, piercing straight into the skin.
At the moment, Zhu Jiuyin was speaking endlessly about the fifth spirit's' past life ', but suddenly, Yun Jiu Tang's blade was already right in front of him. As he quickly dodged to the side, he dodged to the side to avoid the cold light of the sword, and asked anxiously, ”Little Brother Tang, what are you doing? Are you crazy?”
”Nothing much, just that I haven't exercised my muscles and bones for a long time. I suddenly want to exchange pointers with my elder brother, I've let him win!” For some unknown reason, there seemed to be an invisible force controlling it. Or perhaps it was the call of the fifth hidden spirit. At this moment, Yun Jiuchang's killing moves were released frequently. Yun Jiu Tang's sword pierced through the air, he suddenly retracted his strength, his wrist turned as he quickly swung his sword with all his might, bringing along a strong inner force and attacking once again, aiming straight at Zhu Jiu's Yin Face Gate.
Zhu Jiuyin seemed to have already felt that Yun Jiuchang was not only exchanging pointers, but every move was deadly, and every move was vicious. Because he had been caught unprepared and had been crazily hacked to death by someone else, he angrily shouted: ”Little Brother Tang, why are you so vicious? If you continue to be so aggressive like this, then I won't be polite anymore.”
”Alright, come on, show me your skills.” Yun Jiuchang's breathing quickened as he roared in his heart, ”I also want to fight you to the death.”
The two fought back and forth. Their moves became more and more urgent and their movements became more and more strange. In just a split-second, the two had already exchanged more than ten moves.
”Who wants a fight to the death!” Suddenly, a sonorous and authoritative voice rang out like a great bell, shaking the hearts of those who heard it. Before he finished speaking, the sword ruler eyebrows' figure had already leaped over from outside the palace, like a flying immortal flying in the sky, covering the distance between the two of them.
The battle between the two was in full swing as Zhang Xuan gathered all of the zhenqi in his body. The sword in his hand flew to the middle of the two, and with his palms spread out, he dealt with each of their attacks. Although their moves were fierce, and they gathered all the strength in their bodies, but they were not as powerful as the sword ruler eyebrow's palm strike, the power from one palm was enough to suppress both of their moves, with a slight change in palm strike, the two were forced dozens of feet away, and the powerful Profound Spirit Qi made them unable to move.
Seeing the two of them stop, the man with a sword ruler's brow quickly retracted his palm and said in a stern voice: ”Are you two crazy? It seems like you guys have some skills, killing each other before you even go out to battle!”
The two remained silent. Yun Jiuxiang was still unable to calm down, they never thought that Zhu Jiuyin would treat his sworn brother in such a manner. He did not want to stay in the Netherworld Cold Palace for even a moment longer, so he turned around and left, leaving the sword and brows as well as Candle Jiu Yin looking at each other in dismay.
The sword ruler's eyebrow said coldly, ”Jiu Yin, what was that just now?”
”I don't know either. I only derogated a few sentences from what the fifth hidden spirit did when he was still alive. I didn't expect him to pull out his sword and fight me.”
The sword ruler waved his hand, ”Ignore him first. Tell me, have you discovered anything new in the music industry recently?”
”Devil Ancestor, just as you said, the Setting Sun Sword that was previously destroyed is indeed a fake sword that the Supreme Mystery used to deceive people, but …”
”But what?!”
”Please forgive me Devil Ancestor, but I still haven't found the real Sunset Sword of the Nine Yin!”
