“Li Fugui, are you also going to the Sword Tomb?” Qin Luan greeted a cold-faced Li Fugui enthusiastically, “Me too, I just got here and encountered such a good thing.”
Seeing old friends from other countries, Qin Luan was very happy.
Li Fugui snorted: “Who’s Li Fugui? I am the Seven Kills Daoist!”
The Seven Kills Daoist is a Daoist from the Ruthless Sect of Da Zhou, which excels in Sword Dao, is very passionate about swords, and is a famous Sword Dao Sect located on the border of the two provinces in the southeastern coastal region of Da Zhou.
The Ruthless Sect is considered a branch of the Sword Pavilion, and the founder of the Ruthless Sect was a disciple of the Sword Pavilion.
“I’ve been waiting here for over half a year for the Sword Tomb to open, and you’re quite lucky to encounter it as soon as you arrive.”
However, the Seven Kills Daoist was still dragged to the tea stall by Qin Luan honestly.
Just as Qin Luan was about to introduce the Seven Kills Daoist to the bigshots, he saw the tea stall owner giving them a rather unfriendly look.
The tea stall was small, with only three tables. They were taking up space and not drinking tea, chattering on and on, affecting the owner’s business.
As for himself and the cheap tea, it didn’t matter, but he couldn’t expect the younger generation to accompany him in drinking. Jiang Li stood up and led them to find another place.
They didn’t have to pay for the tea, because Zhang Long and Lu Bu Cong had already paid for Jiang Li.
Walking on the road, just as Qin Luan was about to introduce the Seven Kills Daoist to Jiang Li, a group of people came face-to-face and accidentally knocked into Song Ying.
“Can’t you watch where you’re going?” Instead of apologizing, the other party turned around and scolded Song Ying.
“You’re being unreasonable. It’s clear that you bumped into someone, yet you’re acting as if you’re in the right?” Qin Luan instinctively shielded Song Ying behind him, standing up for her.
The little fox on his shoulder also made a cute and fierce face towards the other party.
The Seven Kills Daoist quickly pulled Qin Luan back and pointed to the emblem on the other party’s sleeve, whispering: “They are from the Fearless League.
Don’t act rashly.”
“Fearless League? What’s that?” Qin Luan had never heard of it.
“It’s the largest organization in Da Sui, formed by many sects. Each of those sects has at least a Divinity Transformation Real Person presiding over it.
Except for the Sword Pavilion, all sects within Da Sui with elders in the Body
Integration Realm are in it.”
The Seven Kills Daoist’s concise explanation made Qin Luan understand the complications and retreat.
The Body Integration Realm was terrifying.
The Fearless League unified inside, overbearing outside, rampaging in Da Sui.
Other than the royal family, they didn’t care about anyone. The local officials had to give three points of respect, which led to the disciples of the sects within the league being arrogant and unreasonable.
“Kid, are you scared now? If you’re scared, bow down and hurry off!” Seeing that the Seven Kills Daoist was afraid of him, the people from the Fearless League became arrogant.
“You’ve got to appreciate Young Lord Yu’s spirit!”
“Young Lord Yu is a direct relative of the Body Integration elder in the League!”
“This bumpkin clearly came from somewhere else, having never heard of our Fearless League’s reputation.”
After listening, Jiang Li was quite speechless. It seems that they really wanted everyone to know that they are lackeys.
“Shut up.” Without Jiang Li having to act, Yuan Wuxing, as an elder, stepped in for his younger generation.
Regardless of the fact that Jiang, the Human Emperor was nearby, even without him, Yuan Wuxing would dare to act. What Fearless League? At worst, he just wouldn’t present in Da Sui.
With a wave of his hand, Yuan Wuxing was ready to smack down those arrogant guys, but another force neutralized and dissipated it.
“My friend, you have quite the temper. It’s merely a verbal dispute among the younger generation, and yet, you want to physically harm someone?”
There were also elders protecting the way within the Fearless League, it was actually a Nascent Soul Mid-Staged monk.
Yuan Wuxing did not engage in a verbal argument, but directly took action. This place was not like Da Zhou, where everything was reasoned out. Here, strength rules.
The other party didn’t expect Yuan Wuxing to be so unreasonable, attacking as soon as the conversation began. Regardless of him being a person of the Fearless League, and the fact that they were both at the Nascent Soul Mid-Stage, did he really think he could win?
After ten moves, the opponent was beaten to a coughing fit by Yuan Wuxing. Realizing he had encountered a tough nut, he activated a blood escape technique in shock, grabbed Young Lord Yu and fled.
Before leaving, he dropped a fierce remark: “If you dare, tell us your names. The five of you, wait for it. Our Fearless League will surely take revenge for this!”
The five, of course, were Yuan Wuxing, Qin Luan, Song Ying, Seven Kills Daoist, and Jiang Li.
However, before Yuan Wuxing had the chance to announce his name, they had already fled.
“Oh dear, Uncle Yuan, you acted too impulsively.” The Seven Kills Daoist was afraid, “The Sword Tomb is about to open and now you have made the Fearless
League remember us. This is definitely going to bring trouble.”
To his surprise, Qin Luan and the others showed no signs of fear.
Qin Luan pointed to Jiang Li, and proudly introduced: “This is Elder Jiang whom we met in the Mysterious Secret Realm.”
Mysterious Secret Realm, Elder Jiang.
These two key words instantly let the Seven Kills Daoist know Jiang Li’s identity.
Seven Kills Daoist shuddered and immediately became heroic. What blasted Fearless League? They dared to mess?
As for his instigation of everyone in the Secret Realm to attack Jiang Li, well— the Human Emperor probably wouldn’t hold a grudge.
Probably.
Jiang Li quite admired the Seven Kills Daoist. Although there was an element of arrogance, after knowing his identity and daring to make a move against him, it can be considered commendable bravery. This was rare.
The sects within the Fearless League shared a common characteristic: their ancestors were beaten by the Sword Monarch.
Four thousand years ago, the Sword Monarch was arrogant. In order to temper his Sword Intent, he went from door to door to challenge the established experts. None of them could defeat the young Sword Monarch. Although the records of the battles were not spread, those established experts could not save face after being defeated by a junior, so they held a grudge against the Sword Monarch and, by extension, the Sword Pavilion.
The Sword Monarch rejuvenated the Sword Pavilion, making the Sword Pavilion unmatched. Body Integration cultivators emerged frequently.
After the Sword Monarch disappeared, those sects formed an alliance to suppress the Sword Pavilion — this was the inception of the Fearless League.
Fearless, meaning not being afraid of the Sword Monarch.
Actually, the Sword Pavilion could have brought up this matter in the Nine Provinces Conference, and Jiang Li would step in and resolve it.
However, the Sword Pavilion always firmly believed that a Sword cultivator prefers death over submission and would not seek help from others. If they were suppressed, it was because they were weak. If they became stronger, this problem would no longer exist.
Jiang Li had expressed multiple times that he could assist, but the Sword Pavilion always refused.
Jiang Li felt that the people in the Sword Pavilion weren’t quite right in the head.
But now he had a reason to help the Sword Pavilion.
Jiang Li took out the Remote Communication Talisman: “Kong Hu, help me knock down the Fearless League from Da Sui.”
Zhang Konghu was eating. Hearing Jiang Li calling for him, he took a sip of water, swallowed his food, and asked: “What’s the matter?”
Jiang Li recounted the event and concluded: “The Fearless League stated that they will seek revenge against me. Threatening the Human Emperor, this is a major crime.”
“…You’re basically baiting them into breaking the law.” Zhang Kong Hu was flabbergasted.
“That isn’t baiting them into breaking the law. This is called understanding the people’s conditions, sharing joy with the people.” Jiang Li corrected him.
“Don’t take advantage of the fact that I’m illiterate.”
“So, will you or won’t you?”
“I will, if there’s a fight, I’m definitely in!” Zhang Konghu said excitedly. As a body cultivator, how could he not like to fight? He immediately picked up his bowl and chopsticks, flew toward Da Sui while eating on the go.
Knocking down, of course, meant literal knocking down, a mixture of knocking and beating up.
Jiang Li confidently hung up the communication talisman.
While the Fearless League did have several elders at the Body Integration Realm, they were all in the early and middle stages of the Body Integration Realm. Against Zhang Konghu, who had a physical body comparable to the
Transcendance Tribulation Stage, they could only take a beating obediently. The Body Integration stage of the Fearless League could not be compared with that of the Imperial Palace..
