The martial artists on the outside had come with the same intentions. Now that they could see people standing right before the cave who were capable of going in at anytime, of course they were not happy.
However, Xin Wuji had another set of calculations in mind. He sent his voice to Tian Mingshan and his people, “You three go in quickly, I will stop them.”
Tian Mingshan was stunned, yet he did not dare to hesitate when he saw Xin Wuji shoot a piercing glance at them. He called out and jumped towards the entrance.
A slight smile spilled from the corner of Xin Wuji’s mouth. He brushed away with his palms and another wall of air spilled from the center of his palms. Like a whirlpool, it kept proliferating circles of ripples. As the radiated scope got bigger, instantly it blocked the entire cave entrance.
Now, Qin Wushuang had suddenly realized the intent of Xin Wuji: he wanted to take the Supreme Dao object for himself.
Unfortunately, this Supreme Dao object was a scheme arranged by the Emei Daoist Sect. Qin Wushuang did not expose this as he wished this Xin Wuji would enter the cave quickly.
Upon seeing Xin Wuji’s actions, Shang Ye became abruptly angry. He opened the Piercing Cloud Bow and was about to break through this defensive wall of air; however, the girl next to him grabbed him and said in a low voice, “Brother Shang Ye, don’t be reckless. I heard this Xin Wuji is at the peak of the Common Mysterious stage, we cannot beat him.”
Shang Ye clenched his fists tightly and shot angry flames from his eyes. He looked at the cave entrance, but seemed to find this result incredibly unacceptable.
Now, Qin Wushuang was slowly approaching the area of Shang Ye. Since he had moved at a rather slow speed while concealing himself, he did not raise the suspicion of other people.
Clearly, the girl next to Shang Ye had shown a quicker reaction. She immediately became aware and turned around to glare at Qin Wushuang. She shouted, “Don’t come any closer!”
“I do not harbor vile intentions.” Qin Wushuang waved his hands and blinked at Shang Ye. He sent his voice to him secretly, “Brother Shang Ye, do you still remember me?”
When Shang Ye heard Qin Wushuang’s voice, a thoughtful look covered his eyes. Next, he became ecstatic and jumped off the giant rock from the mountain cave entrance and walked towards Qin Wushuang.
Qin Wushuang sent his voice again, “Follow me quickly, but don’t speak.”
Upon seeing Qin Wushuang acting with such caution, Shang Ye knew that these matters were not ordinary. He shot a glance at his friends and followed Qin Wushuang slowly towards the outside of the mountain valley.
After they walked out of the valley, Qin Wushuang was in no rush to stop. Instead, he took Shang Ye’s group to rush to the exterior main road. Only after coming to a wide lawn with a panoramic view, he stopped.
“Brother Shang Ye, long time no see.” Qin Wushuang roared with laughter and brought the Graceful Spiritual Bow to his hands with a wave. Any form of explanation and words would not be as persuasive as the Graceful Spiritual Bow.
When Shang Ye saw the Graceful Spiritual Bow, endless joy shot from his eyes. “It’s really you, brother, it’s really you.”
With one bear hug, the two sworn brothers roared in laughter as it swept away the unfamiliarity of not seeing each other for a few years.
This was a real relationship between men!
Overjoyed, Shang Ye called out to the girl in black, “Su’Er, come here, this is my sworn brother Qin Wushuang I have always talked to you about!”
The girl was rather stylish as she walked over and slapped her palm on Qin Wushuang. She introduced herself, “Hello, I’m Su Mi, you can also call me Su’Er like Brother Shang Ye.”
“Ha ha, why call you Su’Er? Just call her sister-in-law.” Shang Ye instructed.
Su Mi shot him a glance and laughed. “That will also do.”
Qin Wushuang smacked his tongue with wonder. The taste of love was truly able to change a person. In the past, brother Shang Ye was such a cruel person. Now, he could only laugh to his heart’s content. It seems that this miss Su Mi has brought a lot of change for brother Shang Ye.
“Brother Shang Ye, where have you been for the past few years? Also, why were you fighting the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect?” Qin Wushuang pushed these questions out of his mind.
Shang Ye laughed. “Let’s go, let’s sit down and talk. I assume that Tian Mingshan will not walk too far. Unless Xin Wuji keeps following them!”
The other two men in black were in charge of being on guard. Qin Wushuang, Shang Ye, and Su Mi sat on the ground and talked about the causes and reasons for this conflict.
Initially, after Shang Ye had got Qin Wushuang’s mask, he escaped towards the east and unconsciously, he had arrived at the border of the Endless Eastern Sea.
Along that desolate seashore, people would often experience a narrow escape through the perilous situation. Shang Ye had always heard of how the Endless Eastern Sea was a place full of fortuitous opportunity.
He had entered the Endless Eastern Sea through the death seashore!
When Qin Wushuang heard this, his expression could not help but change. “Brother Shang Ye, you entered the Endless Eastern Sea? You didn’t enter through the appointed entrance and still dared to charge into the Endless Eastern Sea?”
Shang Ye laughed, revealing a trace of stubbornness and an untamed expression took over his face. “At that time, I did not carry any sort of worry in my mind. In the worst case scenario, I would’ve died. There was nothing I couldn’t see through. So even though I knew it would be a narrow escape and that there would be little hope of living, I still entered the Endless Eastern Sea without hesitation!”
If Brother Shang Ye had not appeared before him alive, Qin Wushuang would have thought for sure that he would have died after hearing that Shang Ye had entered the Endless Eastern Sea.
Shang Ye gave a long sigh. “At that time, I was reckless. Before I entered the dangerous zone, I was swallowed by the sea completely. Perhaps, I have had such a fortuitous opportunity in my life, on the verge of my death, I meet Su’Er…”
When he said this, Shang Ye’s eyes were brimming with tenderness as he looked at Su Mi who was at the side.
Su Mi chuckled. “I also found you out of the blue. How could a guy so fearless when it comes to death exist! Brother Shang Ye, fortunately you met me when I was in a good mood or else I would not have gone to save you.”
When Shang Ye saw Qin Wushuang’s puzzled expression, he laughed. “Bro, your sister-in-law’s background is not ordinary. She is the daughter to the Coiled Dragon race. In the Endless Eastern Sea, they are considered the top ranking major clan!”
Dragon race?
One could say that to Qin Wushuang, the concept of the dragon clan was very fresh information.
“Ha ha, brother, the dragon clan is also a race of spiritual beasts. When one reaches the Void Martial Force, they can transform into humans at free will. They can also participate in marriage.”
Qin Wushuang laughed. “Brother Shang Ye, sister-in-law, I must congratulate you guys. Brother Shang Ye has finally found an ideal place to return.”
Shang Ye laughed. “Brother, you must also have a girlfriend, right?”
Su Mi also asked. “That’s right, brother, how come your girlfriend has not come with you?”
Qin Wushuang gave a long sigh. “She hasn’t come this time.”
Shang Ye laughed. “That’s alright. When we leave the Karakorum Immortal Clan, we can head to the Xuan Yuan Mound to visit your girlfriend. Su’Er, can we go?”
“Yes, I have never been to the Xuan Yuan Mound!”
“Brother, are you also participating in the pageant of the Karakorum Immortal Clan?”
“You too, brother?” Shang Ye moved his brow and appeared joyful. “I see your strength is no less than mine. I think you must have had plenty of fortuitous opportunities in the past few years, right?”
Qin Wushuang said, “I joined the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan and became a core disciple. That’s why I am eligible to participate in this Ten Thousand Year Pilgrimage Pageant.”
“The Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan?” Su Mi also gave a slight cry.
“Su’Er, you know about the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan?” Shang Ye asked curiously.
“Of course I know. The Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan used to be the ruler of the Xuan Yuan Mound in the past. They are just slightly lower than the totem clan, right?” Su Mi asked with a chuckle.
Qin Wushuang gave a long sigh. “That’s a thing of the past. The current Qin Clan is in a somewhat dire situation. Xin Wuji, who you saw a moment ago, is the son of the current Heavenly Emperor.”
Some murderous intentions flashed across Shang Ye’s eyes. “This means, that Xin Wuji is your enemy, right?”
“On the surface, he’s not my enemy. However, the two guys accompanying him, one of them is from the Heavenly Punishing Villa and the other belongs to the Sound of Thunder Sect. These two major powerhouses are enemies of my Qin Clan. Most likely their secret supporter is the Heavenly Emperor Xin Clan!”
Shang Ye made her murderous intentions even more obvious through her tone as she said, “This means, it would be nice if we could possibly take out this Xin Wuji?”
Qin Wushuang gave a bitter smile. “Xin Wuji is at the peak of the Common Mysterious Stage and invincible to all beneath the Supreme Dao. You and I should not make our plans on him now.”
Shang Ye gave a long sigh for he also knew what it meant to be at the peak of the Common Mysterious Stage. There would always be another mountain higher than the present one. Now, having come out of the Endless Eastern Sea, he had planned to reveal his outstanding talent with Xin Wuji. Upon seeing Xin Wuji’s moves, he knew that even among the younger generation, there would be people more powerful than him.
Even for Qin Wushuang, his sworn brothers did not show to have less strength than him through these years. However, Shang Ye was not jealous of Qin Wushuang: on the contrary, he was rather happy.
He asked, “Brother, how come you are here?”
Qin Wushuang gave a long sigh. “It’s a long story.” At that moment, he explained the situation without going into too much detail.
Shang Ye’s brows moved dramatically when he heard him talk about the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect. “You also have a grudge with the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect? Ha ha, that’s great! It seems we do share brotherhood, even our enemies are the same.”
Qin Wushuang said with a bitter smile, “I just don’t understand how you and the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect formed a grudge?”
A trace of sadness was revealed through Shang Ye’s eyes. Clearly, he was remembering some depressing things. With a sigh, he said, “Brother, do you remember how I once mentioned my teacher?”
“Yes, your teacher left you many pieces of treasure, including the Graceful Spiritual Bow you have given to me. This bow is a Supreme Dao weapon and has helped me escape from a narrow death many times. If it weren’t for your generosity, it would be tough for me to possess the same strength and status I have today.”
Shang Ye did not really care as he said, “Bro, I only gave you that Graceful Spiritual Bow because it’s compatible with you. In fact, my teacher was one of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect. He is one of the intelligence seekers in which the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect sent out to foreign lands. For all these times, he was in charge of making contact with the Nine Palace Faction and delivering information to the sect. Because of this, my teacher also acquired many fortuitous opportunities when he was out and got many good things. Until one day, my teacher accidentally acquired the Graceful Spiritual Bow at the human countries. My teacher has keen eyes and knew that once this bow was exposed, it would cause a lot of disasters. Therefore, he hid this bow and planned to abandon his life of an outlaw to train with his full force. Unexpectedly, when he tried to live in seclusion, he aroused suspicion with the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect. Without knowing anything, people of the Nine Palace Faction lured him to the sect and set up an ambush. The person that was in charge of sending my teacher to the Nine Palace Faction was, Zuo Tianci!”
Now Qin Wushuang understood the reason behind the grudge held by Shang Ye and why he exerted all his efforts to deal with the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect. He wanted to seek revenge for his teacher!
