Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 337 - I’m Not Someone Who Has Never Killed Somebody in the Swordsmanship-Seeking Sect

Chapter 337 I’m Not Someone Who Has Never Killed Somebody in the Swordsmanship-Seeking Sect

The entire hall was caught in a bizarre atmosphere because of that unexpected stranger.

Except for a few older superiors in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, all others knelt on the ground, even Luo Fengzhu with a special status was no exception.

Shen Ku was now scared by such a situation, and both his legs were trembling.

Actually, it was only the first time for him to be qualified to come to the interrogation hall, so he wanted to put on a better performance. Unexpectedly, he was self-defeating. In the issues concerning Ding Hao and that stranger, he found that he seemed to have done something wrong.

Fortunately, nobody had paid any attention to him.

Even the drunken stranger never looked at him.

Because that stranger always stared at Ding Hao closely.

That kind of gaze was indescribable and strange. His eyesight like silk threads was projecting from his half-closed eyes, and he seemed to want to see through Ding Hao by peeling him layer by layer. He looked at Ding Hao like a drunkard staring at a peerless wine, a romantic man at a beauty, a swordsman who was crazy about a well-known sword, and an ambitious king at the territory on a map.

Ding Hao was about to speak, but at that moment—

“My respect for Martial Uncle Qi.”

From the depths of that hall, among the seven strange light clusters, the respectful voices of seven super-powers, such as Li Jianyi, the head of the sect, were heard. Ding Hao even vaguely noticed that Li Jianyi’s voice was slightly trembling for some unknown reason.

At that time, Ding Hao finally understood it completely.

That uninvited drunken guest, who had once taught him “Sword Style of Closing Door” in the Lonely Peak as a superior in the seclusion world, turned out to be a legendary taboo person, whom the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect had carefully avoided mentioning for many years—

Qi Qingshan!

Whether in terms of seniority or strength, Qi Qingshan was definitely one of the few venerated old people alive in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.

Even Li Jianyi, the head of the sect, and the other six giants dared not neglect him.

“Hum,” Qi Qingshan snorted casually. He gave them the cold shoulder as a response. His eyes swept over everyone present and finally fell on Lu Fengzhu. His eyesight became slightly softer.

“I have met Ding Hao several times and we hit it off straight away. He has also learned one of my sword movements. Now in the sect, with evil spirits and monsters wreaking havoc, it’s time to clean up... Today, I’ve come here to make an announcement that I have decided to reopen the Sword-hidden Peak, and Ding Hao is the next master candidate of the Peak. So today, I officially take Ding Hao as my self-imparting disciple. You should not compete for it anymore.”

Hearing such words, Ding Hao was not very surprised, but felt slightly strange.

At that time in the Lonely Peak, Ding Hao wanted to thank Qi Qingshan for his teaching by kneeling down on the ground, but unexpectedly, he refused to have any relations with him and ran away like he was escaping. He seemed to be afraid of Ding Hao worshiping him as a teacher. But now, why did he change his character suddenly?

Of course, it was most welcome to become the disciple of a legendary person.

But what Qi Qingshan said was like thunder to other people’s ears. It shocked these people into changing their faces. They could not believe what they had heard.

“Reopen the Lonely Peak?”

“Will Ding Hao be the next master candidate of the Sword-hidden Peak?”

“Does the old monster want to take Ding Hao as a self-imparting disciple?”

If such news were to be spread, it would definitely be explosive and shock the nine sects in the Snow Province so that it would instantly cause waves, and countless super giants in the Human Tribe and the Demon Tribe would feel shocked.

“Does it mean that the horrible God of Killing will finally return?”

“Does it signify that the old monster, who has not cared about worldly matters, wants to come to power again?”

“Not mentioning what happened a long time ago, the brief words given by Qi Qingshan would bring sudden changes to the whole power structure in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. Sea changes would happen to the stabilizing and clearing strengths of various sects.”

“Grandmaster Uncle, think it over. Ding Hao is just a nominal disciple. It is not conventional to select him as the master candidate of the Lonely Peak.”

“Yes, Grandmaster Uncle. The Lonely Peak is not within the Six Peaks and Six Bases, but it enjoys the power of law enforcement above the entire sect. After having kept closed for so many years, it is a good thing to reopen the Lonely Peak. But it is too serious to grant the position of master of the Peak to Ding Hao. He is just an inexperienced nominal disciple.”

“We feel very excited that you have made a decision to reopen the Lonely Peak, but you should not select Ding Hao as the master candidate for the Lonely Peak!”

“Junior Brother Qi, since there is such a unanimous opinion, maybe Ding Hao is not a suitable candidate. Would you please think it over?”

In the hall, many people expressed their opposition after feeling shocked.

From these people’s words, Ding Hao got some implications.

It was the first time that Ding Hao had heard of the Lonely Peak.

In the core power of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, in addition to the heads, other sects were called the Six Peaks and Six Bases. As far as Ding Hao knew, the Lonely Peak was not included in the Six Peaks and Six Bases. Furthermore, the Sword-hidden Peak had been closed for so many years for some reason. In general, such a peak should have no strength or sense of presence like some small little-known peaks except for the Six Peaks and Six Bases.

But hearing what these people said, did the Lonely Peak seem to be outstanding and special and enjoy power that was above the Six Peaks and Six Bases?

Hearing other people’s opposition, Qi Qingshan lifted his head to take a drink. “Haha, you are putting on sanctified airs... Haha. Bah! I have made my decision. Hypocrites like you have no chance to interfere in my business. Today, I’ve come here just to tell you about it. I have no intention to discuss it with good-for-nothings like you. You’d better control your mouth honestly, otherwise, haha, look at my sword. I am not a person who has never killed anyone in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect with the sword.”

Such words made the interrogation hall become combative suddenly and people feel chills.

Everyone’s jaw dropped.

What he said was really too overbearing.

Some people still wanted to say something, but when they thought of things done by this man before, they dared not bring themselves ill luck. Qi Qingshan had killed one of seven giants mercilessly, who enjoyed the power controlling the Sky Sword Peak out of the Six Peaks and Six Bases a few decades ago for that matter.

In the hall, there was dead silence.

Deep in the hall...

Seven light clusters were the symbols of the seven most prominent giants in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. A cold snort was heard from the light cluster third from the right. “Grandmaster Uncle Qi, how mighty you are looking! Do you still have the face to show off your killing the brother of the same sect? You’re really admirable!”
