Yang Dingtian's martial arts was known as the second best in the world, second only to Wudang Sect's founder, Zhang Sanfeng. Even the current Xie Xun wasn't confident that he could defeat Yang Dingtian.
Xie Xun was able to deal with a Mongolian cavalryman by himself because of the Corpse Soldier Summoning Card, not because of his own strength.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have needed to steal the Heaven and Earth Great Shift's mental cultivation method so stealthily. He could have just snatched it directly.
There were exceptions to everything. Yang Dingtian would occasionally cultivate during the day on a whim. Later on, when he discovered that Madam Yang and Cheng Kun were having an affair, it was during the day when they wanted to break through to the higher realm of the Heaven and Earth Great Shift.
Therefore, there could be danger in the Soaring Path at any time. Xie Xun did not dare to make too much of a commotion and carefully searched bit by bit.
The secret chamber was hidden very well. Xie Xun and Taitish, who was unwilling to give up, searched for more than an hour but still couldn't find it.
In the original plot, Taitish had snuck into the secret passage several times, but she was unable to find Yang Dingtian's secret chamber. It was obvious how secretive this secret chamber was.
Later, Zhang Wuji and Anne were forced to a corner by Cheng Kun's huge rock. Only then did they discover the secret chamber by chance.
Originally, Xie Xun thought that he would be able to find the secret chamber very quickly, but after searching almost all the forks in the secret passage, he could not find any traces of the secret chamber. He could not help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
He had thought things too simply. He had assumed that Zhang Wuji had discovered the secret chamber the first time he entered the secret passage. He thought that the secret chamber should be in a conspicuous position.
However, he didn't expect that if it was really that simple, then after Yang Dingtian died, so many people had sneaked into the secret passage, and there wouldn't be no one who hadn't discovered his corpse.
So many people did not notice it, but Zhang Wuji had noticed it the first time he came in. It was all because of his powerful protagonist halo.
Thinking about it, it made sense. Yang Dingtian had never brought the Heaven and Earth Great Shift with him. It was very likely that he had placed it in that secret chamber. Since he dared to leave the cultivation technique in the secret chamber and not bring it with him, he had to be careful.
This meant that Yang Dingtian felt that it would be safer to keep the cultivation technique in the secret chamber than to carry it with him. His confidence in the secret chamber was enough to prove that the secret chamber wasn't as simple as others thought.
Taitish couldn't help but ask,"What are you looking for? There doesn't seem to be anything inside."
Xie Xun knocked on the wall with his hand and then put his ear against the wall. He listened attentively to the sound coming from the wall. When he heard Taitish's words, he said indifferently without turning his head,"No one wants you to follow me. If you're impatient, leave first.”
Xie Xun couldn't wait for Taitish to stop following him and let him search alone.
The dark passage seemed to be filled with dead silence on the surface. No one would have thought that it was bustling in the dark.
Except for Xie Xun and Taitish who had snuck in.
There was also a lovesick couple hiding in a corner of the secret passage. Madam Yang and Cheng Kun were there…
"Junior Sister, I haven't seen you for three days and four hours. Do you know how painful it was for me? I couldn't sit still and couldn't eat or drink. All I could think of was your figure.”Cheng Kun used all his strength to pull Madam Yang into his arms. He wished that he could become one with Madam Yang and never be separated. He looked at Madam Yang with endless love. He couldn't believe what would happen if he couldn't see Madam Yang one day. He was afraid that he would go completely crazy.
Madam Yang looked at Cheng Kun guiltily and said,""I'm sorry, Senior Brother. I've been thinking about you all the time, but he hasn't been giving me much time alone recently. I can't come down to accompany you. If I'm found out, I'm worried that he'll hurt your life..."
Cheng Kun gritted his teeth and said,""I'm not afraid of that demon Yang Dingtian. I can't wait to fight him to the death. I don't care even if I die. If it wasn't for this old man who is shameless and could be your father by twenty years older than you, he would've used his power to forcefully marry you.”
"Brother, don't mess around!”Madam Yang placed a finger on Cheng Kun's lips. Her gentle eyes were filled with worry as she sighed and said,"It's all my fault. I'm in the wrong. Not only have I let you down, but I've also let him down. Even if I have to die, it's my fault.”
Her words were filled with deep helplessness and contained too many complicated emotions.
Perhaps, back then, Yang Dingtian was attracted by her title as the number one beauty in the martial arts world. When he came to propose marriage, she should have been more determined. She shouldn't have been unable to withstand her parents 'persuasion and reluctantly agreed to this marriage. She thought of Taitish, who had threatened to die with her sword a few days ago and vowed not to marry him. At that time, she was very respectful of Taitish.
If she had been like her back then, threatening him with her life, the outcome might have been different. Perhaps she would have already married her beloved senior brother and had children.
Or perhaps, things would be as she had thought when she reluctantly agreed to the marriage. Although she didn't have any feelings for Yang Dingtian, she would develop feelings for him after spending a long time with him and slowly forget about her senior brother.
Unfortunately, there were no ifs. Even though Yang Dingtian was obedient to her and cared for her in every possible way, she still couldn't fall in love with him. Instead, her longing for her senior brother grew deeper and deeper.
She had respect for Yang Dingtian and guilt, but she didn't have any love.
Her deep feelings and her indecisiveness had ultimately led to today's situation. She had hurt her senior brother, Yang Dingtian, and herself.
