“This… this…”
The fleeing disciples saw this scene and were stupefied. The aquiline-nosed man who easily suppressed their Elders, was cut in half just like that.
“Just now… that sword light……”
The Old Daoist Priest just woke up and also saw the sword light.
“Even if Senior Brother, himself, strikes, it is impossible to match the sword light just now…”
The Old Daoist Priest muttered to himself. His face was blank, he was still immersed in what just happened.
“I… am I alive?”
Although Zhang Xiao fell to the ground, he didn’t feel any pain, instead he was full of ecstasy.
He felt the aquiline-nosed man’s hatred towards him. Zhang Xiao doesn’t need to think about what would happen to him if he fell into the hands of the other party. And he can’t even kill himself, even if he wanted to by that time.
“I was almost sliced by that sword light…”
Zhang Xiao had lingering fears. Unlike the others who only saw the sword light from a distance, Zhang Xiao, who was in the hands of the aquiline-nosed man, was almost face to face with the sword light.
Zhang Xiao knew that even if he was just scraped by the sword light, he might not be any different from the aquiline-nosed man.
“Master is dead?”
The black clothed goons of the aquiline-nosed man trembled, their faces full of fear.
Although they didn’t know what the sword light was, they knew the fact that the aquiline-nosed man had died.
“What should we do now?”
The black clothed men glanced at each other, before retreating.
Since the aquiline-nosed man was now dead, their strength was greatly reduced. Not to mention killing the disciples, they might be killed themselves.
“Retreat.”
These black clothed men made their decision almost instantly.
If the aquiline-nosed man was still alive, they naturally wouldn’t dare disobey the order of a Grade 1 Great Grandmaster.
But now that he was cut in half and couldn’t be anymore dead, when will they leave? Until they follow his footsteps?
Sou!
Sou!
Sou!
The black clothed men disappeared one after another.
Though the disciples did not pay any attention to the black clothed men at all, instead all their eyes were on Xuan Ku.
“This is?”
Xuan Ku also had a blank face. He was waiting to die just now. After all, with the strength of the aquiline-nosed man, killing a Middle Realm like him is too easy.
“Was it the wooden sword that the Venerable gave me?”
Xuan Ku looked down at the wooden sword hanging around his neck.
At this moment, the wooden sword returned to normal. Other than a few cracks on the edges of the wooden sword, it looked normal.
The disciples cautiously walked over and stopped at a distance from Xuan Ku. They only looked at him curiously, and didn’t dare to say anything.
They were all Heaven’s Chosen Child in their respective Sects. Although they don’t know what the sword light was, they obviously know that it was related to Xuan Ku.
“Little Monk… Xuan Ku, what happened?” Zhang Xiao, who had just recovered from shock, walked over.
When he asked this, the other disciples’ eyes shined, and their ears perked up. They also wanted to hear what Xuan Ku would say.
“What happened?” Xuan Ku could only blink, not knowing what to say.
The wooden sword was given to him by the Venerable. The sword light just now could be put in the sword by the Venerable.
At this time, a low voice sounded.
“Zhang Xiao, don’t ask things you shouldn’t know!”
The Old Daoist Priest came forward and fiercely glared at Zhang Xiao.
The Old Daoist Priest then moved towards Xuan Ku and bowed deeply under everyone’s appalled gaze.
“Many thanks for the help. I and the Wudang Mountain will keep this in our hearts. If something happens in the future, we will definitely lend a hand!”
The words of the Old Daoist Priest came from the heart. However, these words were not for Xuan Ku, but instead towards the existence that released the sword light.
The Old Daoist Priest is a Grade 2 Grand Master and he had accumulated knowledge from the Wudang Mountain all year round. So whether it was his eyesight or anything else, he was naturally far more capable in knowing what to do, compared to a young disciple like Zhang Xiao.
Based on the sword light, the Old Daoist Priest can conclude that the rumors of the Shaolin Temple having an Arhat might be true.
Other than an Arhat, who can bring out such sword light with great ferocity?
When the Elders of the other disciples saw this, their expression changed slightly, and immediately followed the Old Daoist Priest’s actions. They moved towards Xuan Ku, to be precise, moved towards the palm-sized wooden sword on his neck and then bowed deeply.
After this incident, the disciples naturally have no interest in continuing to travel around the world. Under the supervision of their Elders, they quickly returned to their respective Sects.
Especially the Old Daoist Priest from Wudang Mountain. How could he not know that the aquiline-nosed man came for Zhang Xiao?
As for the other disciples, they were just affected by the Wudang Mountain’s problems.
The Wudang Mountain overawes the world and Daoist Zhang is a Peak Grade 1 Great Grandmaster who’s standing at the Peak of the world, yet they almost fell in the sewer. How could the Old Daoist Priest not get angry?
Thinking of this, Old Daoist Priest hurried back to Wudang Mountain with Zhang Xiao to find out where the aquiline-nosed man came from, and why he had a feud with the Wudang Mountain.
…
…
Shaolin Temple.
Back Mountain.
At the moment when the palm-sized wooden sword hanging around the neck Xuan Ku’s neck released the sword light, Su Qin suddenly opened his eyes and looked in a certain direction.
“The Sword Intent was triggered?” Su Qin wondered.
The wooden sword he gave to Xuan Ku contains a Sword Intent condensed by the [Dharma Sword Art].
Even if they were far apart, once activated, Su Qin could still roughly feel it.
“Are you in life-threatening danger?” Su Qin’s expression remained unchanged, while thinking silently in his heart.
Only when Xuan Ku encounters an unstoppable force will the Sword Intent be triggered.
“The crisis has now passed…” Su Qin muttered to himself.
The Sword Intent he left in the wooden sword can bring out three strikes in total. Su Qin felt through the Sword Intent in the wooden sword and determined that Xuan Ku was now safe.
Otherwise, the remaining Sword Intents in the wooden sword would continue to get sent out until all three strikes were exhausted.
