Forty to fifty years ago, a sect rose along the southeast coast, called the Blackmoon Sect. The rise of the Blackmoon Cult stemmed from its unique cultivation method and huge cult members. However, although the overly relaxed conditions for the recruitment of martial artists had allowed the Black Moon Cult to expand rapidly, there were also many scums of the martial arts world mixed in, causing the Black Moon Cult to have a bad reputation in the pugilistic world. Coupled with the fact that the martial arts of the Black Moon Cult were different from the martial arts of the Central Plains, the Black Moon Cult had become enemies with the martial arts of the Central Plains.
As time passed, the original name of the Blackmoon Cult disappeared, and the people in the martial world gradually got used to calling it the "Devil Cult".
There was constant friction between the newly risen Black Moon Cult and the various sects of the martial arts world, but thanks to Old Man Tian Qing's mediation, the two sides did not have too big of a conflict.
Old Man Tian Qing had a high status in the righteous path of the martial arts world. He knew that once the Blackmoon Cult and the various sects started a war, there would definitely be a storm of blood in the pugilistic world, so he had always been looking for a way to make both sides coexist.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. The relatively peaceful situation stopped on that day.
Old Man Tian Qing was assassinated, and he was struck by the unique skill of the Black Moon Cult, the Black Moon Palm.
For a time, the righteous path of the martial arts world was agitated, and they all demanded an explanation from the Black Moon Cult. Who would have thought that after a period of silence, not only did the Black Moon Cult not come forward to clarify the death of Old Man Tian Qing, but they brazenly launched a surprise attack on the southern sects.
The conflicts between the sects and their past grudges had caused the various large sects to only care about protecting themselves. This had instead allowed the Black Moon Cult to be defeated one by one. A few large sects were the first to be defeated, and even the location of their sects had been seized by the Black Moon Cult. The rest of the small sects did not even have a decent resistance. Each of them fled at the sight of the wind and collapsed a thousand miles away.
In a few months, the Blackmoon Cult swept across the south, and the various sects fled the Yangtze River in order to seek temporary protection.
After suffering such a great humiliation, the various sects in the martial arts world immediately woke up. They understood that if they wanted to defeat the Blackmoon Cult, they had to put aside their past grudges and work together.
Under such circumstances, the Martial Arts Circle Convention was held.
Each martial arts sect had to choose a martial arts alliance leader to lead the various large sects and bring them to wash away the humiliation they had suffered and defend the dignity of the righteous path.
It was easier said than done. Once interests were involved, the various sects would start fighting endlessly again. No one wanted the position of alliance leader to fall.
In the end, the new sect leader of the Returning Cloud Sect, Luo Wei, stood out. Although he was only in his twenties, he had already made a name for himself and was at the top of the younger generation in Jianghu. Luo Wei suppressed the crowd and became the leader of the martial arts world, shouldering the heavy responsibility of destroying the demonic sect.
The young Luo Wei did not disappoint. He led the orthodox path of the martial arts world to defeat the Black Moon Cult. Mount Shiwei was the most crucial battle between the Demonic Sect and the orthodox martial arts world! Luo Wei fought four of the four guardians of the Blackmoon Cult alone, and in the end, three of the four guardians died and one escaped. In the end, even the Demon Cult Master was defeated by Luo Wei.
From then on, the Black Moon Cult's defeat was set in stone.
Luo Wei's reputation reached its peak at that time. He had already become the embodiment of chivalry in the martial arts world. Everyone felt that he was destined to become a legend in the martial arts world.
However, things often did not go as one wished.
Luo Wei led the various sects to attack the headquarters of the Demonic Sect. In their view, it was not so much a battle as drawing a pause to the outcome that had long been decided.
However, the appearance of a person disrupted everything that should have been smooth.
Ye Qingqing.
She was the daughter of the Demon Cult Master and the younger sister of the Young Master. Most importantly, she was Luo Wei's lover.
The Blackmoon Cult was still destroyed.
Luo Wei went against everyone's wishes and brought Ye Qingqing back to the Cloud Returning Sect. However, due to Ye Qingqing's identity and the pressure from the sect's elders, he had no choice but to lock her up in prison.
In just a few days, all the major sects came to the Returning Cloud Sect to demand an explanation. They demanded that Luo Wei must kill Ye Qingqing personally if he wanted to maintain his reputation and keep his credit as the leader of the martial arts world.
Of course, Luo Wei couldn't do it, but he couldn't let Ye Qingqing go either. The pressure from all sides put him in a dilemma.
Just as the situation was in a stalemate, the disciple in charge of guarding the dungeon sent news-Ye Qingqing had hanged herself.
The grief-stricken Luo Wei carried Ye Qingqing's corpse and jumped down from the cliff at the back mountain of the Cloud Returning Sect.
Just like that, the hero became a traitor, and his reputation became a stain. Luo Wei's death not only caused the Guiyun Sect's status to plummet, it also made people completely disappointed with the word 'chivalry'.
A Jianghu story ended here.
