Chapter 1064: Unfortunately, Long Feiye isn’t willing (2/2)

The crowd didn’t even know what to say[6] beyond being shocked and shocked again.

How could Gu Qishao be resigned to the sight of Long Feiye and Han Yunxi dazzling the crowds together? He kicked Gong Beichen’s corpse aside and stood up. “By tricking this old man once, I’ll kill to my heart’s content today!”

After his announcement, he dashingly lifted his hand to show off the Moye sword spirit. Even without a blade, the shape of the sword was obvious as its glow filled with power.

“The Moye sword spirit! Heavens, it’s the Moye sword spirit! The Moye sword spirit’s appeared on Earth!” the Heretical Sword Sect’s Head Elder exclaimed. They too, had been searching for Moye while trying to quell Ganjiang. The Moye sword had long been destroyed, but its sword spirit was still not to be slighted!

And Gu Qishao was actually controlling it?!

If it wasn’t for Head Elder’s shout, nobody would have recognized the formless treasure in Gu Qishao’s hand. Now they were all gaping at him. Which swordsmen didn’t know of the Moye sword spirit?

Long Feiye, Han Yunxi, and Gu Qishao stood back to back, each wielding their weapons and extraordinary sword qi to present an overwhelming force. The people surrounding them actually started to back away, none of them willing to fight first.

Meanwhile, Gu Beiyue was standing by a building on the side and quietly observing the scene. His white robes fluttered in the wind with strands of inky-black hair; a smile played about his lips and gentle gaze. Like a figure removed from this world, he was calm and distant from honor or disgrace.[7]

He was here to watch the show as well as protecting the people responsible for it. After taking care of everything else down the peaks, he had long arrived and searched halfway through the peak. Currently, he was taking a break to look at the princess being dazzling and noble as she showed off her elegance and intellectual brilliance. Despite his lingering thoughts, he didn’t delay much longer and soon vanished to continue the hunt.

What was Gu Beiyue’s heart made of?[8] Just how warm could it be? How cold?

Long Feiye, Han Yunxi, and Gu Qishao didn’t move a step before crushing all arrogance against them. They were simply too powerful, so many disciples began fleeing instead. Soon enough, a big group of people had started escaping down the mountain, but what awaited them was the disciples of the 55 other depositories who had just woken up, as well as the newly rescued Granny You and the Abstinence Courtyard disciples.

Second Elder and Heretical Sword Sect’s three elders wanted to run away too, but Gu Qishao and Han Yunxi headed left and right to stop them. Long Feiye faced them head-on. Panicked, Second Elder fell to his knees. “Feiye, for your master’s sake, spare martial uncle once. Martial uncle is willing--”

“Not everyone has the right to surrender to this crown prince!” Long Feiye said as he loomed from above. Then he slashed towards Second Elder, who raised his own sword to block the blow. But Long Feiye’s weapon soon cut through the blade and killed him.

The Heretical Sword Sect elders could neither escape nor surrender. At last, they realized that these young’uns were even scarier than their own sect leader. Long Feiye didn’t attack them, but retreated to one side and said, “Yunxi, you can use them as practice. I’ll give you the time it takes to brew a cup of tea.”

Gu Qishao laughed, “Poison lass, there’s no rush, no rush! Let’s take it slowly!”

After seeing Second Elder’s wretched death, the three elders from Heretical Sword Sect gave up ideas of negotiation and fell to their knees. Head Elder offered up a key and said, “Your Highness Crown Prince, Your Royal Highness, this is the key locking up Third Honored Elder. I’ll take you there right now!”

Naturally, Long Feiye wouldn’t really sacrifice the three Honored Elders. He’d killed Second Elder because Third Elder had yet to show his face, and they could find the other Honored Elders with him just fine. The three Heretical Sword Sect elders couldn’t be offed so easily, either.

How else could they decimate Heretical Sword Sect?

“Fine, I’ll spare you lot for now!” Han Yunxi said magnanimously.

At this moment, a familiar voice drifted over. “Feiye, quick! We’re running out of time, hurry--”

1. My dear dim light bulb, you do not become “the light of his life” by betraying his sect and master first.

2. No pity here because c’mon, DMY honestly had better chances and look how she did.

3. There are too many elders in one chapter! Hope you guys aren’t getting confused~

4. Gimme a sec to patch my suspension of disbelief again. This is the level of the most powerful martial arts sect on the continent? Its own elders can’t even reach max level in its foundational internal arts cultivation techniques? P-please don’t make me laugh...oh no…

5. I’m beginning to wonder if Celestial Mountain Sword Sect’s reputation used to be built on like, a total of three people in the past: Long Feiye, Long Feiye’s master, and Duanmu Yao before she got crippled. You can’t count the Honored Three Elders because they’re always in seclusion, and I guess everyone else is so much weaker than these ice mountain hermits that it doesn’t matter if they can’t reach max level in Nirvana Heart Arts.

6. Neither does the translator tbh

7. I just realized--GBY is equivalent to those “once in 1,000 year beauties” you see in male protagonist Chinese webnovels, because every time he shows up we get a paragraph dedicated to describing his looks

8. The answer is Anti-Mary-Sue Atoms.
