The Four Guardians of Heavenly Revelations.

It was a title that had not been heard for many years. Nonetheless, it was these four people who had guarded Mingde Emperor back when he was still the third prince, and killed everyone in his way all the way to the Hall of Calming Purity, until they finally took the edict from the Five Grand Eunuchs. And the leader of the four guardians, the Guardian of the East Qinglong, was also the only one of the Four Guardians of Heavenly Revelations who was eventually branded “traitor”. That year, Li Xinyue cultivated her sword for seven days and on her own, with her single sword, fought through sixteen martial experts from her residence to the execution stage. In the end, she single-handedly fought off four of the Grand Eunuchs and still did not retreat, and the Heart sword landed right in front of the Emperor.

After that day, Baihu left Heavenly Revelations, Xuanwu and Zhuque never returned again, and the name Four Guardians of Heavenly Revelations was never mentioned again.

"Qinglong." Lanyue Marquis looked at the Heart sword in Lei Wujie's hand. "How are you related to Li Xinyue?"

"My father is Lei Mengsha, my mother Li Xinyue, and my sister Li Hanyi," Lei Wujie replied.

Lanyue Marquis placed his hand lightly on the hilt of his sabre. "They’re all famous names, but I don't know what this little brother is called? Are you equally famous?"

"My name is Lei Wujie. The Wu from lawlessness, the Jie from unyieldingly obstinate," Lei Wujie paused, and a glimmer of sharpness flashed in his eyes. "The Lei of Lei Clan Fort!"

"Good." Lanyue Marquis nodded, now gripping the hilt of his sabre. "I was fortunate enough to have met Mengsha-xiong. His offspring should indeed be a man of such fine character."

Ye Ruoyi noticed Lanyue Marquis’s movements. She knew that although Lanyue Marquis seldom showed his skills, he had always been rumoured to be the most skillful martial artist in the Xiao family. Based on Lei Wujie’s current level, no matter how powerful he was, he wouldn’t be a match for the Marquis. She hurriedly interrupted, "Wujie, we just want to see how Xiao Se is doing. Everything else can wait until Xiao Se wakes up, then we will discuss any long term plans."

Lei Wujie shook his head and said decisively, "If only one of you had come, then it’d have been fine. But, now Lanyue Marquis from Heavenly Revelations is here and the General-in-chief of the Central Army is here. Neither of them would want to lose to the other, so this is the best time to act. They’re both acting like tiger and wolf, what’s there to discuss about long term plans.”

Wuxin and Xie Xuan glanced at each other outside the door. These two people who had nothing to do now could only smirk. Xie Xuan shook his head. "Looks like he still hasn’t read "Late Snowfall"."

Ye Xiaoying also spoke, "Nephew, please stand aside. You’re the Chief’s son so I will naturally ensure your safety and prevent anyone from hurting you. But the identity of the person inside is special, so I must take him away."

Lanyue Marquis sneered, "Does the General wish to go against His Majesty’s decree?"

Ye Xiaoying frowned and said, "His Majesty's decree? So Lanyue Marquis is carrying His Majesty's decree? Then, please let Xiaoying read it!"

Lanyue Marquis’s pupils suddenly tightened. "Ye Xiaoying, you are too bold."

Ye Xiaoying laughed and said, "The world calls me Manslayer. Do you think I’m bold enough?"

"Then as this little brother said, let's see who is faster." Lanyue Marquis stopped paying attention to Ye Xiaoying, and turned to take a step in Lei Wujie's direction.

The Heart sword that was stuck in the ground started vibrating with a cry.

Lei Wujie's palms began to sweat, and the moment Lanyue Marquis took that step, he felt an overwhelming power that could topple mountains and overturn the seas pressing down on him.

Ye Xiaoying also drew out his twin sabres, and told himself, If I face Lanyue Marquis right now, both sides will definitely suffer losses. I can only wait for Lanyue Marquis to pass through Lei Wujie before making a move and taking the advantage. Except, I cannot allow Lanyue Marquis to harm the Chief’s son.

Lanyue Marquis took another step forward, already drawing his sabre halfway.

But a figure in black flashed past him instantly!

Lanyue Marquis was shocked. He turned slightly and struck out with his palm towards that person. The man dodged the blow and pushed lightly with his right hand, pushing down the sabre that Lanyue Marquis had drawn halfway. Lanyue Marquis struck with another palm, but the man had already retreated several steps, brushed past the Heart sword, and stood beside Lei Wujie.

"Da-shixiong," Lei Wujie exclaimed happily.

"And who is this little brother now?" Lanyue Marquis had exchanged a few moves with him and knew that although this man looked rather young, he already had a powerful cultivation base.

"Xuanwu." Tang Lian stood straight, and said slowly, "The Four Guardians of Heavenly Revelations, Guardian of the North."

Another young woman armed with a silver spear, leaped over and landed next to them. She scratched her head and said, "I’m not a guardian or whatever, Wujie-shidi, but can I stand with you?"

"Of course, of course." Seeing that his martial brother and sister had come to support him, Lei Wujie couldn’t help but widen his smile.

Lanyue Marquis frowned slightly, and turned to exchange a glance with Ye Xiaoying.

Naturally, they knew very well who held the position of Xuanwu, the Heavenly Revelations Guardian of the North. Unlike Li Xinyue, that person was still alive and well, and they knew how difficult that person was to deal with. In fact, they knew better than anyone else.

"Are you Tang Lianyue’s disciple?" Lanyue Marquis turned back and asked.

"Disciple of Tang Clan Tang Lianyue and Snow Moon City Baili Dongjun, Tang Lian." Tang Lian cupped his fists and bowed, not lacking in manners. "Greetings to Lanyue Marquis."

"Your background is really not simple huh?" Lanyue Marquis snorted coldly. "You’re even pulling out Baili Dongjun's name."

"Then add me too." Wuxin smiled and walked over. However, the Heart sword still shook for a moment, before it immediately fell silent, as if it could sense there was no hostility from him. "Back then, all of you stood in front of me, then today, it’s my turn to stand in front of you."

"Little monk," Lei Wujie whispered.

"Call me Sect Leader." Wuxin turned around, his white monk robes fluttering.

Lanyue Marquis said, "I’d almost forgotten about you. Don’t think that I don’t know who you are. For the dignity of our Xiao family, I won't say the name of the person behind you, but you had better not get involved."

"You’re wrong." Wuxin shook his head and smiled. "There’s no one behind me. I’m a monk, and there’s only Buddha behind me."

"Very well!" Lanyue Marquis finally drew that ridiculously long sabre at his side. "It’s been many years since I’ve seen such heroic spirits of the youth. But, I was asked to bring that person inside back to Heavenly Revelations. I must fulfil my promise."

"Heart sword!" Lei Wujie suddenly cried out angrily. The Heart sword that had been stabbed into the ground rose and fell into his hand.

Everyone was on the precipice!

"Stop!" Suddenly a clear voice interrupted them, and Hua Jin, who had just been standing next to the bed treating Xiao Se with her needles, ran over. She pushed past Lei Wujie and the others blocking the door and stood in between the two people with drawn blades. Her hands on her waist, she barked angrily, "My patient has not healed yet, and you’re all here to grab him. Fine, go ahead and grab him, go on. Grab him and go. Believe it or not, while you’re on the road, he’ll be dead within three days."

"Then I’ll just take you along too." Lanyue Marquis instantly withdrew his murderous intent and smiled at the flustered and exasperated little girl.

"Even if you take me along, it’s useless." Hua Jin suddenly became a little dejected. "I can't cure him."

"What!" Everyone present was shocked.
