If You Can Persuade Him, I Will Protect You!
Wudang Mountain, Golden Peak of Taihe Palace.
Boom!
A loud bang that sounded like the sky was about to collapse echoed in the sky. In the rolling black clouds, lightning kept tearing through the sky.
The lightning was like a sword, striking straight at the golden summit!
It was extremely ferocious, as if it was destroying the world.
In the blink of an eye, thunder rumbled on the top of the golden peak. The endless thunder and lightning shone on the top of the golden peak, revealing the original appearance of the golden peak.
What was even more shocking was that there was a white-robed young man under the golden peak of Taihe Palace. He was holding a saber in his arms and his eyes were closed.
Lightning snakes filled the sky, and the loud rumbling could not affect it at all.
Clang ~
Just as another bolt of lightning struck the golden summit, the white-robed young man suddenly opened his eyes. He stomped his foot and flew several feet into the air, heading straight for the lightning bolt.
Clang ~
The sound of the saber exploded. A snow-white saber light streaked across like a waterfall. The saber light that was like water and ice collided with the lightning.
Bang!
In the next moment, the young man flew backward. The long blade in his hand that was as bright as the moon flew out of his hand. Lightning snakes kept flashing around his body. However, the strange thing was that the young man did not seem to be injured at all. His body was only charred black. The original appearance of a graceful young master had turned into a little beggar.
The young man sat down on the green brick floor. He seemed to be a little discouraged and his face was filled with frustration.
"Thunder Slaying Blade? It's only tangible, but it's unintentional…"
Just as the young man collapsed and allowed the drifting storm to hit him, a gentle voice suddenly sounded.
His voice was not loud, but it seemed to have the power to pierce through gold and crack rocks. It forcefully suppressed the rumbling of thunder and the majestic rain fell clearly in the white-robed young man's ears.
The young man in white was not angry. Instead, he sneered,""If you want to see me, then come over. You're so shy. You're really not a man.”
Ta!
On a small path not far from the Palace of Supreme Harmony, a Daoist in a green Daoist robe slowly walked over.
His steps were slow, but each step seemed to step on the heartstrings of the people, causing the white-robed youth's already bad mood to become even angrier.
"What's wrong? Priest Zhang, who wants to become a True Immortal, is going to teach me on account of my aunt?”
The young man in white pushed himself up from the ground and sneered at the Taoist priest in green.
"The prince won't be able to master it if he practices like this.”
The handsome young Taoist priest did not get angry at the white-robed young man's words. He picked up the treasured saber that had fallen to the side and tried his best to smile.
"Oh? You mean you can do it?"
The white-robed young man's anger grew even more intense as he mocked indignantly,""Then come. If you can't cut the lightning, I'll teach you a lesson!”
"The power of heaven and earth is so terrifying. It's naturally impossible to rely on the small path.”
The young Taoist priest's eyes were filled with flattery. At the same time, he handed the treasured saber to the white-robed young man."However, it wouldn't be to the extent of letting go of the weapon and suffering a backlash from the lightning.”
"But then again, the Golden Silkworm Armor on the prince is indeed amazing. It can actually avoid fire and water and block lightning.”
The young man in white suddenly stood up and raised his eyebrows. His originally rogue and lazy temperament suddenly disappeared and was replaced by a cold and sharp intent.
"Doesn't Priest Zhang only cultivate and not practice martial arts?”
"Since you're so arrogant, then cut it for me to see!”
As he spoke, the white-robed young man lifted the young Taoist priest and threw him towards a bolt of lightning that struck the golden peak.
The young Taoist priest who was facing the lightning sighed. His eyes flickered as if he had made a decision.
Then, he gripped the treasured saber with the word 'Yu Qing' engraved on it tightly and slashed at the lightning.
Rumble!
A silvery-white saber light burst forth from the treasured saber in the young Daoist priest's hand.
In the next moment, the blade light slashed out and pointed at the center of the lightning!!
The snake-like lightning was torn apart.
Although it was only for an instant, it had firmly cut off the lightning that was striking down.
The white-robed young man looked at this scene in astonishment. The shock that this saber gave him was indescribable. When that saber slashed down, he even felt as if his soul and body were being torn apart!!
What surprised him even more was that this Taoist priest who claimed to be an immortal cultivator was clearly only responsible for planting vegetables, raising livestock, and feeding pigs on Mount Wudang. Yet, he actually cut off the lightning.
The young Taoist priest slowly landed on the ground and handed the treasured saber Yu Qing back to the young man.
"A family that accumulates good will have blessings, and a family that accumulates evil will have calamities.”
"What a good Yu Qing, what a good Yu Yang. These two sabers are among the best sabers in the world. As expected of the prince's weapon! Impressive!"
The young Taoist priest had a calm expression on his face as he gave a thumbs up as if he had done something extremely ordinary. He even commented on the treasured saber a little, full of flattery.
Unexpectedly, the young man in white did not appreciate it. The anger on his face became even more intense. He directly kicked the young Taoist priest until he staggered!!
"Zhang Daoling, you still dare to tell me that you only cultivate and not practice martial arts?”
The white-robed young man became even angrier and chased after him a few more times. Since this Taoist priest knew martial arts, why didn't he go down the mountain? He had made his aunt wait for him.
At this moment, the thunderstorm had already begun to slowly recede. Zhang Daoling was not angry even after being kicked a few times. He only had an innocent expression on his face.
The heavens pitied him. He really didn't know martial arts. On this mountain, he had read Daoist scriptures and cultivated true techniques.
"Prince, you've misunderstood, you've misunderstood. This is what my junior brother always said. I heard a few words and casually cut it out.”
The white-robed young man was indeed a little dejected when he heard this. He had been on the mountain for a long time and had practiced for half a year, but he had not achieved anything. This guy actually said that he had casually slashed?
The white-robed young man was furious. He chased after Zhang Daoling and punched him again.
If anyone else was present, their jaws would have dropped. One of them had an extremely high seniority in Wudang Mountain and was internally appointed as the next Wudang Sect Leader.
The other was the son of the only Conferred King in the Great Qin Empire, the Western Garrison Liege Lord, Bai Xiaonian. He was one of the most important people in the world.
The two of them had extraordinary statuses, but at this moment, they were chasing each other like children.
After the two of them chased for a while, Bai Xiaonian panted heavily as if he couldn't keep up anymore. The anger in his heart had also dissipated by 70 - 80%. He didn't care about his image at all as he sat on a green brick.
"Prince, are you tired? Then let's take a break?"
Zhang Daoling said cautiously.
In Zhang Daoling's opinion, as one of the noblest people in the world, as the son of Tu Baiqi, who had suppressed all the dynasties and the entire martial world with his own strength, this young man was unwilling to be a playboy prince and instead went to Wudang Mountain to practice martial arts. Wasn't he asking for trouble?
Bai Xiaonian didn't even bother to turn his head. He only said,""You cow herder, hurry up and get lost. Stop laughing at this young master. Even if this young master can't practice martial arts, it's more than enough to deal with you!”
Zhang Daoling carefully took a few steps back, as if he was really afraid that this young master would suddenly burst out and beat him up.
When Bai Xiaonian saw the young Taoist priest's reaction, his expression became even more disdainful.""Zhang Daoling, this prince has never seen a Daoist priest who does nothing all day like you! You want to become a heavenly master? You want to revive Wudang? Revive Taoism? You want to open a new path for Daoism?"
"Dream on!"
However, Zhang Daoling was unmoved. He counted with his fingers and sighed,""It's just that the time hasn't come yet. Don't think that I'm strolling on the mountain all day. In fact, I'm comprehending the Heavenly Dao!”
"It was just that while comprehending the Heavenly Dao, I happened to see Young Master practicing his saber with lightning!”
Bai Xiaonian snorted coldly and looked at Zhang Daoling with disdain.
At this moment, the atmosphere between the two of them could not help but be a little awkward. Zhang Daoling tried to find a conversation and asked tentatively,"Speaking of which, why did young master come to Wudang Sect to practice martial arts when he was a young master of Jun Wu 'an Manor?”
In Zhang Daoling's opinion, there was really no need for this young master to practice martial arts.
Bai Xiaonian harrumphed coldly and let out a long sigh. For a moment, his gaze turned distant.
"In this world, you can't do whatever you want. In this world, if you reason with him, he will be rude to you.”
"Back then, the vassals of the world were in chaos, and Great Qin, Great Tang, Great Ming, Great Song, and other kingdoms were established. On Great Qin's side, there were the Han Kingdom, Zhao Kingdom, Wei Kingdom, Chu Kingdom, Yan Kingdom, and Qi Kingdom. That person surnamed Bai destroyed the six kingdoms, allowing Great Qin to establish a firm foothold. After that, the First Emperor was afraid of the martial artists and wanted to pacify the martial world. Many of the generals in the court were sick and did not come out. It was my father, Baiqi, who was cursed by the world and suppressed the martial world.”
"Later on, everyone said that the Chu Country was the country that the world's scholars could not destroy. It was also that Bai fellow who did this thing that caused him to be scolded. In two months, he destroyed the Chu Country and flooded the capital of the Chu Country.”
"From now on, Great Qin can be considered to have stabilized the world, and it is even faintly known as the number one Kingdom in the world.!! However, the world's infamy was all borne by that Bai. The world views my Bai family as a ferocious beast. Tell me, isn't this funny?”
At this moment, Zhang Daoling thought about it and suddenly took a deep breath as if he had come to a realization!
"I don't understand…"
"I knew it was useless to tell a stupid Daoist like you!”Bai Xiaonian snorted. To think that he had been so sincere with Zhang Daoling. In the end, he actually gave him such a reaction.
"Let's put it this way. Back then, my old man killed too many people to pacify the various countries, and there are countless enemies in the world. There are also people in the imperial court who fear his high achievements. It is even rumored that even the First Emperor of the Great Qin thinks so. The old man's health has not been good these years, so I plan to go out of the martial world to find foreign aid.”
Bai Xiaonian knew that it was impossible for the Bai Family to ally with the other major powers in this situation. Bai Qi had offended too many countries, and almost everyone could kill him. That old man was also stubborn and would never betray Qin.
If he wanted to find allies, he could only look for them in the martial world.
Therefore, Bai Xiaonian thought of Mount Wudang near his hometown. When he was young, his old man had brought him up the mountain, so they were quite familiar with each other. Bai Xiaonian felt that there was a possibility of a deal.
Zhang Daoling shook his head and sighed. This world was not simple.
Ever since the Great Yu settled the Nine States, there were many dynasties in the world. There was the Great Tang, Great Ming, Great Song, Great Han, Great Qin…Heroes also rose in Jianghu. There was Wu Wudi, who had suppressed the world for sixty years with his invincibility in all directions. There was also the Sword God and Sword Immortal, who had come from the west and flew from the sky.
Such a world, such a pugilistic world, how terrifying was it? How could it be as simple as this prince thought?
Zhang Daoling threw away his thoughts and spoke again.
"However, I heard from Senior Brother that the path of martial arts is the hardest. Young Master was past the age where he was most suitable to practice martial arts. In addition, his physique was lacking and he could not cultivate true qi. It would be difficult for him to go to the Wind Cloud Empire and challenge the number one martial artist in the world, Wu Wudi.”Zhang Daoling could not help but sigh.
Entering the path of martial arts was naturally better as early as possible. Only by laying a solid foundation could one walk further on the path of martial arts.
This was because cultivating martial arts not only required extremely high talent, but also the accumulation of true qi over time as a foundation.
This young master in front of him…
Not only was his talent mediocre!
He even missed the best opportunity to practice martial arts!
The realms of martial artists in the world were divided into second-class, first-class, Houtian, Xiantian, Grandmaster, Great Grandmaster, Martial Dao Extreme Realm, Martial Dao Celestial Being, and Land Immortal!
If a person practiced martial arts halfway, after the best age for practicing martial arts, he would at most become a second-rate expert.
Although Bai Xiaonian had thoughts of practicing martial arts, he was already twenty years old. It would be difficult for him to make any breakthroughs in martial arts.
Bai Xiaonian's expression had long since returned to normal. He said indifferently,""Of course I know. Now that I'm practicing the saber, I might be able to practice the sword in the future. Even if I can't practice any of them well, or even give up halfway, I still have to practice!”
Seeing this, Zhang Daoling also knew that he couldn't persuade Bai Xiaonian.
This Young Master Wu 'an had obviously taken this path with great determination.
Zhang Daoling sighed. Although Bai Xiaonian had never been nice to him, the two of them had been friends for the past year on the mountain. Zhang Daoling could not help but say to Bai Xiaonian,"If you insist on going to the Wind Cloud Empire, if you can persuade him, he will definitely ensure your safety!”
With that said, Zhang Daoling pointed to the side of the two. Bai Xiaonian looked in the direction of Zhang Daoling's finger and saw that at the center of the golden peak in the distance, an additional person had appeared!
