"What sword technique is this?" Yue Buqun's expression was gloomy, looking at the wound on his palm, he still had lingering fear.
The Huashan Sect was known as one of the Five Mountain Sword Sects, and his sword techniques were also his forte.
He believed that he knew most of the sword techniques in Jianghu like the back of his hand.
However, Lin Yuantu's technique was beyond his understanding.
Lin Yuantu didn't reply. He counted in his heart. One breath's time was up.
He raised his hand, and a sword light flashed. A steaming head flew high into the air!
"Ah!"
"Junior Brother!"
The crowd was in chaos, and fear spread.
Pairs of fearful eyes fell on Lin Yuantu. They didn't expect Lin Yuantu to really kill them!
"You guys…Indiscriminately killing the innocent, is this the logic of the Darming Empire?”Yue Buqun's expression was ugly.
Hearing this, an indifferent voice came from the carriage.
"The entire world is the land of the king. This is the only principle of my Great Ming. Those who don't obey will die!”
"You!"
Yue Buqun almost vomited blood. He had always walked the Jianghu in the name of a gentleman, and the most important thing was reputation.
Now that his disciple was killed in front of him, he was helpless.
This was a huge blow to his dignity and face!
Most importantly, if he insisted on not agreeing, the mysterious person in the carriage might really allow Lin Yuantu to wipe out the entire Huashan Sect.
He did not care about the lives of ordinary disciples, but if they all died, the Huashan Sect would only exist in name. Wouldn't he, the sect master of Huashan, be a joke?
Furthermore…he might not be able to escape from Lin Yuantu's sword!
Just as he was thinking, another breath passed.
Lin Yuantu's expression was calm. He raised his sword and slashed down. The sword light spat out and took another life.
Fresh blood splattered everywhere, and the surroundings were once again in an uproar.
Screams, wails, cries, resentful voices…Mixed together, they attacked Yue Buqun's mind.
He realized that if he didn't do something, his dignity as the sect master would be lost!
He took a deep breath, and a sorrowful and unwilling expression gradually appeared on his face. He stood up and said,"Stop…They are just ordinary disciples. If you have the ability, come at me!”
Lin Yuantu looked at him in surprise, then chuckled and said,""Sect Master Yue, our Ninth Prince has already said that there is only one way for your disciples to live, and that is to submit!”
After saying that, the long sword moved slightly, and a cold light flickered. It was about to kill again!
Yue Buqun's eyes were red as he raised his sword and blocked in front of this sword.
Clang!
The sword intent exploded and Yue Buqun's sword broke into two. The remaining blade landed on his chest, leaving a hideous wound.
"Master!" The group of Huashan disciples revealed sorrowful expressions, they were very touched by Yue Buqun's act of using his body to block the sword to save them.
"Senior Brother!" Ning Zhongze also rushed over with concern and checked on his injuries.
Zhu Hao sat in the carriage, but it was not difficult for him to understand everything that was happening outside.
The corner of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly. This Yue Buqun was indeed a fighter amongst hypocrites, it was really a pity not to act.
Lin Yuantu didn't use much strength in that sword attack just now. With Yue Buqun's cultivation, it was impossible that he couldn't block it.
Sure enough, he saw Yue Buqun struggling to prop himself up, his eyes filled with helplessness: "I, Yue Buqun, am incompetent and have let down the ancestors of the Huashan Sect, and even more so, let down the disciples who trust me!”
"Master, don't say anymore. You've already done your best!”The Huashan Sect's eldest disciple, Linghu Chong, said with tears in his eyes.
"Yes, Master…we don't blame you!”
Yue Buqun sighed and looked at the curtain that still covered his vision. He took a deep breath and seemed to have made a decision.
"Will you let my disciples go as long as I choose to submit?"”
Zhu Hao didn't say anything.
Lin Yuantu snorted." What kind of status does the Ninth Prince have? Why would he go back on his word?"”
When Yue Buqun heard this, his face revealed a conflicted expression. After a long time, he gritted his teeth and said under the watchful eyes of everyone: "Alright, I choose to submit!"
Whoosh!
The moment he said that, the surrounding disciples looked at Yue Buqun in disbelief.
Then, their hearts were filled with grief and indignation, and the sense of shame grew deeper. In their opinion, a sect master like Yue Buqun, who was quite famous in the martial arts world, should have the determination to die to prove his will.
However, in order to protect the lives of these unremarkable disciples, they chose to compromise with the Imperial Court.
What kind of humiliation was this?
Lin Yuantu was slightly startled. He didn't expect Yue Buqun to choose to compromise so quickly.
This first stop of the expedition seemed to be too smooth.
"Humph! Our Mount Hua Sect has a thousand years of heritage. How can we yield to the lackeys of the imperial court? Yue Buqun, you are the Sect Master of Mount Hua!”
Suddenly, a vigorous and powerful voice came from afar.
Suddenly, the mountain rocks rolled, and the wind howled in the surroundings. It seemed like a landslide was about to occur.
Such a huge commotion made Lin Yuantu frown immediately. He looked in the direction of the sound with a solemn expression.
In the carriage, Zhu Hao's lips curled up slightly,"Finally appeared!"”
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
On the mountain, a white figure was moving quickly.
Whether it was the rugged mountain path, the lush forest, the cold abyss, or the hundred thousand feet high cliff…everything was flat under his feet.
Almost instantly, he appeared in front of everyone from the back of the mountain range.
He was dressed in a plain white robe that fluttered in the wind. His hands were placed behind his back, and he had a white beard and white hair. He looked like an immortal.
His body landed on the crown of a big tree, not moving at all.
His eyes were sharp as lightning, and he looked cynical.
" Martial Uncle…" Yue Buqun saw this person and his eyes flashed. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Feng Qingyang!" Naturally, Lin Yuantu recognized this person.
To be more precise, he and Feng Qingyang were from the same era.
When a martial artist's strength reached the Innate Realm, their lifespan would increase greatly, greatly slowing down the speed at which their appearance aged.
However, there were also people who didn't care about their appearances and allowed their bodies to change naturally.
Feng Qingyang was one of them.
He and Lin Yuantu were both in their eighties, but it was as if they were separated by several generations.
"So it's you!" Feng Qingyang also saw Lin Yuantu. He narrowed his eyes and said,""We haven't seen each other for many years. You've really grown up. You actually brought people from the imperial court to Mount Hua to kill!”
" Hmph!" Lin Yuantu snorted and said," I'm here on His Majesty's orders to follow the Ninth Prince to pacify the martial world and get rid of all of you who violate the rules with your martial arts!"”
"Feng Qingyang, just now, your Mount Hua Sect Master Yue Buqun had already agreed to submit, why….. do you want to go back on your word?”
Feng Qingyang waved his sleeves in disdain and said,""Yue Buqun is a hypocrite, how can he represent Mount Hua? If he agrees, this old man will not agree!"
When Yue Buqun heard Feng Qingyang's words, he knew that his tricks had been seen through by him.
His face turned green and white, but he could not refute.
"How can my Huashan Sect's thousand-year-old foundation be handed over to you lackeys of the Imperial Court!”As Feng Qingyang spoke, his gaze landed on the carriage.
Then, a majestic aura spread out, as if Mount Tai was pressing down on him.
Lin Yuantu's expression changed drastically, and he said in surprise,""You…actually broke through to the Great Grandmaster Realm?”
