"Congratulations to the host for obtaining a seventh-grade lightness skill manual, Treading on Snow and Riding the Wind, from the world of the Legend of Chu Liuxiang. [Obtained: Loyalty Card x5!]
Treading Snow and Wind?
Loyalty Card?
Hearing the system notification in his mind, Yan Chen's eyes flashed. With a thought, he quietly opened the system warehouse and checked it.
[Wind Riding on Snow: Originated from the Legend of Chu Liuxiang. It is the unique lightness skill of the fragrant marshal Chu Liuxiang. Its body is as light as smoke, and its steps on the snow are traceless. It is as if it is riding on the wind, extremely exquisite.]
[Loyalty Card: A special item reward. After use, the other party will be completely loyal and will never betray you. Even if the other party dies, they will not hesitate.] When used, the opponent cannot resist. It was valid for one day. If it was not used after the date, it would disappear on its own.)
Good stuff!
Looking at these two rewards, a trace of joy flashed across Yan Chen's eyes. Whether it was the " Treading on Snow and Wind " movement technique or the reward of this Loyalty Card, they were both what he needed the most at the moment.
"Seventh Grade Light-body Technique, Treading Snow and Riding the Wind. Do you want to cultivate it?”
"Yes, sir!"
Ding!"Congratulations to the host for successfully cultivating the seventh-grade lightness skill, Treading Snow and Riding the Wind. Proficiency: 0.01%."
Yan Chen closed his eyes slightly and felt the cultivation method of this lightness skill that appeared in his mind. A satisfied smile appeared on his face.
…
"The two of you have come from afar. I believe that it is not just to exchange a few moves with me, right?”
He sheathed his sword and hung it at his waist again. Yan Chen looked at Wei Yixiao and Chang Yuchun and said,""If you don't mind, how about we go into the village for a chat?”
Wei Yixiao and Chang Yuchun exchanged glances and nodded.
The purpose of their trip was to see if this rumored Young Marshal lived up to his reputation.
If not, he would have to think of a way to recruit him into the Ming Cult.
Ever since Yang Dingtian's death, the Ming Cult of the Central Plains had been falling apart for many years. The experts of the cult had either left or scattered. The two Carefree Messengers, the four Shakyamuni, the five itinerant people, and now, only the Left Light Emissary, Yang Xiao, was left on the Light Summit.
Recently, the six great sects had been secretly plotting and joining forces. There was an 80% chance that they wanted to join forces to attack the Ming Cult.
Although the Ming Cult's experts had their own grudges, they were still loyal to Sacred Fire's Revered Ming. Seeing that the Ming Cult was about to perish, they could not just sit back and do nothing.
Now that he had seen this White Mountain Army's commander, he was indeed like the rumors said, a dragon among men. Since the other party had invited him, there was naturally no reason to reject.
Wei Yixiao cupped his hands and laughed,""Since Young Marshal Yan has invited me, I will naturally obey!”
Not long after, a group of fifty to sixty people entered the White Mountain Stronghold.
At this moment, the White Mountain Army was gathering to practice martial arts. The thirteen small formations were practicing in unison and shouting loudly. Upon closer inspection, these people were practicing thirteen different kinds of martial arts.
Wei Yixiao and Chang Yuchun were both experienced in martial arts, and they recognized the origins of the kung fu at a glance.
"This is the WuTang Sect's Thirteen Swords of the Gate of God!”Chang Yuchun looked at the other formation and was slightly stunned.
"This is the Kongtong Sect's…Life Seizing Chain Sword?"
"The Huashan Sect's Air Splitting Palm!"
"Nine Suns Sword of the Emei Sect!"
...
"Young Marshal Yan, these…They were all sword techniques from the various sects?”
Wei Yixiao was really surprised. One had to know that secretly learning martial arts was a big taboo in the martial arts world. If he was caught, crippling his martial arts and breaking his limbs was a light punishment.
There were more than three hundred people in the White Mountain Army, and they had practically practiced all the martial arts of the six major sects.
"Not bad!"
Yan Chen did not care about these martial arts world taboos. If he wanted to pursue the matter, he would have to have the ability to do so.
He nodded casually and said," Yesterday, a disciple of the righteous path came to pay his respects to the mountain and gave me these martial arts manuals. They were polite, so I accepted them!"”
Chang Yuchun and Wei Yixiao's eyes twitched.
To pay respects to the mountain?
Giving away secret manuals?
Was there such a good thing?
The Ming Cult was not as pedantic as the six major sects, who disdained the rigid sect rules of the famous righteous sects, so they did not feel that there was anything wrong with it. In addition, they were enemies with the six major sects, so they felt very pleased.
After sitting down in the living room, Yan Chen instructed his subordinates to bring over a few jars of aged wine and began drinking with the Green-winged Bat King and Chang Yuchun.
After drinking a few cups of wine, Wei Yixiao spoke first.
"Young Marshal Yan, you are now considered a member of the martial world. I wonder if you have heard of my Ming Cult?”
"Of course!"
"Then do you know that the Ming Cult is not as good as before?”
These words were not meant to be said to outsiders, but since they had decided to rope him in, they naturally had to make the situation clear.
"I'd like to ask for advice!"
Yan Chen placed the cup down gently, and the servant beside him immediately filled the cup.
" To be honest, ever since Sacred Cult Master Yang Dingtian went missing, the Ming Cult's headquarters has long been without a leader. The fight for the cult master is getting more and more intense. The Four Great Law Protectors and the Five Rogues of the Ming Cult have all left, and the Right Emissary of Light is nowhere to be found."
"Is the Bat King trying to pull me into the sect?" Yan Chen smiled and pointed it out.
Wei Yixiao nodded with a serious expression.
" Yan Shao Shuai and the six major sects are now enemies and not friends. My Ming Cult is also enemies with the six major sects. Yan Shao Shuai has set up the banner of the righteous army to fight against the Tartars. My Ming Cult also regards this as the most important matter. Isn't it good for us to join forces to fight against the enemy?”
Yan Chen nodded. Wei Yixiao was right.
However, joining the Ming Cult meant that they were under the protection of others and were controlled by others. This was not good.
He immediately smiled and said," Although the six major sects are chivalrous, there are also many hypocrites who do not know right from wrong and distort the truth. Not to mention that the Mengyuan imperial court is bullying the Han people and everyone is calling for them to be beaten up. It's naturally not a problem for us to fight against the enemy together with your sect!”
Hearing this, Wei Yixiao and Chang Yuchun were delighted.
However, in the next moment, Yan Chen's words suddenly changed." However, I am free and unfettered on this White Mountain. I am used to being idle and do not like to be restrained by others. I can only accept your kind intentions!”
The smiles on Wei Yixiao and Chang Yuchun's faces froze. They did not expect Yan Chen to reject them.
The air in the living room froze slightly. Finally, Chang Yuchun broke the silence.
"There is actually not much control in my Ming Cult…"
Yan Chen shook his head." You don't have to say anything else. I won't change my mind."”
Pausing for a moment, Yan Chen looked at the two silent people and the corner of his mouth lifted slightly. He said,""Although joining your sect is not a viable option, we will still be happy to help each other in the future.”
Cooperation?
Wei Yixiao was stunned. He did not quite understand what Yan Chen meant!
He frowned and exchanged glances with Chang Yuchun. Chang Yuchun shook his head. He could not read Yan Chen's mind either.
After pondering for a moment, Wei Yixiao finally nodded and stood up.
"That's good too. Then we'll part ways here!”
After a while, the two of them brought dozens of Ming Cult members down the mountain. Chang Yuchun hesitated for a while before asking,""Wei Bat King, why are you…"
"Why didn't you kill him?"
Wei Yixiao chuckled." Logically speaking, if such a talented person can't be loyal to me, he should be killed with one palm strike to prevent future troubles. It's not bad that you can think of that.”
Chang Yuchun nodded.
"But this young man isn't that simple. First of all, I'll have to go through a lot of trouble to kill him, and I might not even succeed!”
"Now that the Holy Church is facing internal and external problems, it's not wise to recruit such a strong enemy. Moreover, what he said is right. This child's future achievements are limitless.”
Chang Yuchun could only sigh." To have such strength at such a young age is indeed too terrifying…"
As the two of them spoke, they led dozens of people and gradually went far away.
At the same time, on White Mountain!
"Hmm?"
Yan Chen returned to his room and was about to think about how to use the five Loyalty Cards when suddenly, the system notification sounded in his mind.
Ding! Side quest activated.
[First stage: Increase the number of subordinates to 10,000 and the number of personal guards to 20]
Mission progress-
[Total population: 347/10,000]
[Number of Guards: 13/20]
"Ten thousand?"
Yan Chen was slightly stunned.
This was thirty times the number of soldiers in the White Mountain Army!
Where could he find so many people?
However, he immediately thought of the five loyalty cards. His eyes lit up and he already had a plan in mind.
