Xiao Yicai's sword light cut through the air. Xu Yu arrived above the Small Bamboo Peak and saw a dense forest with thumb-sized bamboos on it. The mountain wind blew and the ground was covered in green waves.
Although Xiao Yicai was the eldest senior brother of Tongtian Peak and should have understood the seven branches of Qingyun Sect, Small Bamboo Peak was the residential area of female disciples after all. Due to some taboos, it was his first time coming to Small Bamboo Peak. He did not know the mountain roads. Looking around, he saw that the bamboo was green in color and slender. What was even more strange was that the green bamboo was covered with pink spots, like the tears of a gentle woman. It was extremely beautiful.
Xiao Yicai searched around and observed for a while before finding a path up the mountain in the bamboo forest. He chose a place near the mountainside and slowly walked up.
The path was winding, and the leaves and shadows of the bamboos on the ground were crisscrossing. Along the way, the sky was getting darker and darker, and the winding path led to a secluded place. With Xiao Yicai's speed, he walked for a while, but the path became narrower and narrower, and the forest became denser and denser. At first, Xiao Yicai thought that he had taken the wrong path. After a few more steps, his eyes lit up and suddenly opened up. He saw a cave in the depths of the bamboo forest. There was a square, and a platform that was more than 100 feet wide. It was filled with some flowers and plants. The flowers were red, blue, and purple. It was especially beautiful. There was also a pond dug beside it. The spring water was drawn from a mountain spring further away. There were a total of eight bamboo tubes connected in a row. The water trickled into the pond, tinkling and forming a beautiful music. It was especially beautiful.
Such a flower pond and waterside pavilion, birds chirping and flowers fragrant, it was like a paradise on earth, one could not help but be intoxicated. Of course, if someone came here, although they liked the surrounding beautiful environment, their eyes would definitely not stop at the surrounding flowers and grass. This was because in the center of the venue, there were female disciples dressed in Qingyun Sect uniforms. They were slender and dressed in colorful clothes as they danced gracefully with their swords.
In an instant, these young women who were prettier than flowers in this beautiful fairyland with their fairy-like clothes fluttering in the wind really dazzled people's eyes. No matter how they looked, they could not finish looking. No matter how they looked, they could not get enough of them.
This was Little Bamboo Peak!
With Xiao Yicai's cultivation base, he was also overjoyed. His eyes lingered on the field for a long time before he stopped.
Clearly, quite a few female disciples had also seen him. A moment later, two rays of light flew over from behind the women and landed in front of them. Looking closely, they were two women wearing the clothes of Little Bamboo Peak. The older one was a beautiful woman with an oval face. Her hair was like clouds, and her skin was as white as snow. There was a faint smile on her lips.
It was the Big Sister of Small Bamboo Peak, Wen Min. When she saw Xiao Yicai, she seemed to be slightly surprised. Then, a smile appeared on her face. Before Xiao Yicai could say anything, she opened her mouth and asked,"Senior Brother Xiao, we haven't seen each other for a few years, but your cultivation has improved. When did you appear here, we didn't even notice!”
Speaking of which, Wen Min wasn't lying. The reason why Xiao Yi could come to the Small Bamboo Peak without being noticed by anyone was indeed related to the characteristics of the cultivation method he had cultivated and comprehended in the past two years. The Buddhist Prajna of Buddhism was famous for its richness and steadiness. If he was unwilling to use it during cultivation, the Buddhist power of the cultivation method would obediently stay in his Dantian and meridians without leaking out. The original Zhang Xiaofan had cultivated this method in secret without being discovered by anyone. It was because of this characteristic of Buddhist power that Xiao Yi was able to reach his current state. His power in the Brahma Prajna Way was a hundred times greater than Zhang Xiaofan's. Moreover, he had been comprehending the fourth volume of the Tomes of Arcane for the past five years. Although his cultivation had not broken through, his cultivation had become even more mysterious. He walked, sat, and held his hands without revealing any aura. Unless he took the initiative to reveal his cultivation, even Daoist Daoxuan's Supreme Pure Cultivation would not be able to detect anything unusual. It was as if he was just an ordinary person.
When he came to Little Bamboo Peak this time, he had been walking around this place. Therefore, the disciples guarding Little Bamboo Peak didn't notice anything unusual at all, allowing him to easily come to the square at the back of the mountain. Otherwise, with the spiritual senses of a Cultivator that could clearly sense the falling leaves and flowers within a hundred steps, they would have already sensed that someone was approaching.
A warm smile appeared on Xiao Yicai's handsome face. He looked at Wen Min and said,""Junior Martial Sister Wen must be joking. I have been observing here for a while and have seen that the Junior Martial Sisters of Little Bamboo Peak are all extraordinary and powerful. I am ashamed to see that they are fighting for glory like dragons and elephants. I think that Little Bamboo Peak is going to kill everyone in this Seven Lineage Martial Competition. I'm afraid that the first place of this year's Seven Lineage Martial Competition will go to Little Bamboo Peak.”
When Wen Min heard Xiao Yicai praise the disciples of Small Bamboo Peak, she was also happy, but she said humbly,"" Hehe, Senior Brother Xiao is too humble in praising Little Bamboo Peak. With Senior Brother Xiao, this kind of person with a high cultivation, what number one or not? Us junior sisters don't dare to think about it. My master also said that Senior Brother Xiao has a deep Dao Profound Martial Uncle's true inheritance, and his cultivation is profound. No one in our Little Bamboo Peak can be a match for him. To be able to enter the top four is to not let down her old lady's expectations.”
"Haha!" Xiao Yicai chuckled and said,"Junior Martial Sister Wen, you might not know, but I can't participate in the Seven Lineage Martial Competition this time."”
"Can't participate?" "Senior Brother Xiao, what's the matter?" Wen Min was stunned and then asked in confusion.”
Xiao Yicai nodded and said solemnly," It's because Master has something urgent to do at the last minute. He needs me to do it immediately. I might not be able to come back for a while. Therefore, I can't participate in this martial arts competition."”
Whoosh!
Upon hearing Xiao Yicai's words, Wen Min and the female disciples who were leaning towards her heaved a sigh of relief. Wen Min glanced at her junior sisters, and a flash of joy appeared on her face. She said regretfully,"Sigh, if Senior Brother Xiao isn't here, we'll lose a lot of attention. Senior Brother Xiao, see if you can ask Martial Uncle to put the matter aside. It won't be too late to go after the Seven Lineages Martial Competition.”
Xiao Yicai shook his head and said with a straight face,""Junior Martial Sister Wen might not know, but this matter is extraordinary and concerns the lives of the righteous path. Master has specially instructed me, so I can't refuse. Oh, I came here this time for this matter. I came to ask Martial Uncle Shuiyue for help. I hope Junior Martial Sister Wen can help me inform Martial Uncle Shuiyue.”
"No problem. Senior Brother Xiao, please wait here for a moment.”As Wen Min spoke, she gestured to a person beside her. The female disciple understood and nodded before quickly running away.
Wen Min saw that the female disciple had walked far away, and then looked at the calm and composed Xiao Yicai in front of her. She couldn't help but turn her eyes and smile at Xiao Yicai, saying,""Senior Brother Xiao, everyone in Qingyun Sect knows that your Dao is powerful. With your Seven Stars Sword, you rarely meet a match. In the previous Seven Lineages Martial Competition, you even suppressed Senior Brother Qi Hao from Dragon Head Peak. It's amazing. In that case, please take this opportunity to show us your skills.”
Xiao Yicai shook his head and said," Junior Martial Sister Wen, you've misunderstood. My master once said that this brother's meager attainments have yet to be cultivated to perfection. How would I dare to show it off everywhere? Moreover, this brother doesn't intend to participate in this Seven Lineage Martial Competition. What's the point of competing?"”
"Hehe, since Senior Brother Xiao is here, you should give him some pointers!”As Wen Min spoke, she looked around and gave a look to a disciple beside her. The female disciple immediately stood up and bowed to Xiao Yicai."I, Zhao Yingru, have long heard that Senior Brother Xiao was the first in the last Seven Lineage Martial Competition of Qingyun Sect. I admire him very much. Now that I'm in a big fight with Senior Brother Xiao, I'm afraid.”
The female disciple who stood out was about the same age as Wen Min, about twenty-four or twenty-five years old. She was dressed in palace robes and was extremely beautiful. Looking at the surrounding female disciples, they were all paying respect to her. It was obvious that she was also a senior sister of Little Bamboo Peak like Wen Min.
" Junior Sister Zhao, you're too polite. Regarding the competition, it's better not to…" To be honest, Xiao Yicai really did not want to fight her. There was no other reason. Looking at the group of flirtatious and charming female disciples surrounding him, he had a headache. If someone stood up to teach him on Big Bamboo Peak, Dragon Head Peak, and Fenghui Peak, he, as the Big Senior Brother of Qingyun Sect, would really not be able to resist fighting with him. On the one hand, he wanted to show off his strength. He wanted to intimidate them, and at the same time, he wanted to give them a few pointers to show off his Eldest Senior Brother's magnanimity and demeanor. However, this was the Small Bamboo Peak, and all of them were beautiful women. If he were to display his divine might and defeat them, what would they say? Would they praise his martial arts for defeating a group of women, or would they say that he was unromantic and actually ruthlessly destroyed the flowers of ordinary weak women? Of course, if he held back in the battle and lost or ended up in a draw, what would that be? Fine, he was the eldest senior brother of the Qingyun Sect, but he couldn't even defeat a few weak women. How could that be?
In any case, Xiao Yicai would never compete with these female disciples of the Small Bamboo Peak.
Unfortunately, that Senior Sister Wen Min seemed to have hardened her heart and insisted that he make a move. He waved his hand and said,"Senior Brother Xiao, we just want to ask you for advice. Why do you have to hide your skills? Junior Sister Zhao, show Senior Brother Xiao all your skills!”
"Yes!" Junior Sister Zhao nodded. Under the influence of Master Shuiyue, most of the disciples of Little Bamboo Peak looked down on the male disciples of the other peaks. Zhao Ying was one of them. The last Seven Lineages Martial Competition was sixty years ago. At that time, she had not entered Little Bamboo Peak. In just a short time, she had the strength of Jade Pure Level Five. She was usually very proud and was not clear about Xiao Yicai's strength. Naturally, she had the intention to ask for advice. So this time... Without waiting for Xiao Yicai to agree, he flew into the arena and shouted,""Little Bamboo Peak disciple Zhao Yingru, please enlighten Senior Brother Xiao of Tongtian Peak.”
Xiao Yicai frowned when he saw the situation. He knew that he had no choice but to go down in this situation. Otherwise, he would not lose his face, but the face of Long Gate Tongtian Peak. He cupped his hands to Wen Min and came to the martial arts practice field in a flash. Just as he was about to say something, Wen Min did not give him a chance. After the two of them stood up, she shouted loudly,"Junior sisters, come and take a look. Today, everyone is lucky. The number one of the previous Qingyun Seven Lineage Martial Arts Competition, Senior Brother Xiao Yicai of the Chang family, wants to compete with my Little Bamboo Peak disciple, Zhao Ying, in the martial arts arena.”
Her words were clear and bright, instantly attracting another group of viewers. When the surrounding disciples saw that Xiao Yicai was about to fight with the disciples of the sect, they could not help but become even more excited and chattered. Of course, as the Qingyun Sect had taken in many young disciples over the years, many of the female disciples of Small Bamboo Peak had never met Xiao Yicai before, even though they had heard of his name. They stood a little far away and did not hear the conversation between Xiao Yicai and Wen Min. They asked their senior sister, who was slightly older,
"Who is this? Why has he come to my Little Bamboo Peak? I just heard the senior sisters in front of me talking. They seem to be from Changmen Tongtian Peak. I don't know who it is. Senior sister, do you know?”
" I don't know. I came to Little Bamboo Peak a few years earlier than you, and I've never left the sect, so how would I know him? However, I heard that there's no one else in the Chang Sect except for Xiao Yicai, who is very capable. He actually wants to compete with Sister Zhao. He's really asking for trouble. Sister Zhao's ability is also ranked in the top three of my Little Bamboo Peak. Sister Wen Min obviously wants him to suffer."”Obviously, the disciple had found the wrong person. This female disciple was also a rookie and did not know Xiao Yicai's name.
Of course, not all the female disciples present were so ignorant. After the two of them finished speaking, a disciple who knew what was going on immediately interrupted them,"Nonsense. You guys don't know that the person in front of you is our Qingyun Sect's eldest senior brother, Senior Brother Xiao Yicai, the direct disciple of the Dao Profound Sect Master. She was the first in the previous Seven Lineage Martial Competition. Although our Senior Sister Zhao is powerful, she's still far inferior to her.”
" Ah, he's Senior Brother Xiao!" The eyes of the female disciple who had just started asking lit up, and she looked at the arena with a fanatical gaze.
Another disciple was not convinced after being admonished by his senior sister. He complained in a low voice,"No matter how powerful he is, that's all in the past. How can he be compared to Senior Sister Lu? Now that Teacher has bestowed her with the divine weapon 'Tian Ya,' I'm afraid she's already invincible among her peers.”
"You…" The older senior sister glanced at the unconvinced junior sister, shook her head, and turned to look at the field.
He saw Zhao Yingru, who was on his side, unhurriedly pull out her own green immortal sword from behind. It was obviously divided into seven sections and said to Xiao Yicai,""This immortal sword of mine was refined from a ten-thousand-year-old bitter bamboo I took from the bitter bamboo forest of the South Sea ten thousand miles away. It has seven sections in total and can be divided and combined. Its power is quite strong.”
