"Thank you for your kindness, Patriarch. I won't be going. There was nothing to see in a sword fight where the outcome was already decided.”
After some thought, Wu Di decided not to watch the battle.
Compared to watching the battle of swordsmanship, which he already knew the outcome of, he might as well stay in the Wu family's sword tomb and complete the system mission.
Besides, he already possessed the Big River Sword Intent and the Heaven-cleaving Sword Drawing Technique, so he wasn't too interested in Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng's sword techniques.
Moreover, this was not a pure battle of swordsmanship, but a conspiracy to usurp the throne.
However, this was a matter of the Darming Dynasty and had nothing to do with the Wu Family. Wu Di also didn't tell Wu Jian that he had the intention of reminding the Darming Dynasty.
The waters of the Darming Dynasty ran deep. Not only did Gucheng Ye and the Southern Prince of Darming want to rebel, but there was also the Iron Gudan Divine Marquis Zhu Bujue of the Dragon Guarding Mountain Villa.
In this Integrated Martial World, the Darming Dynasty's Imperial Court wasn't weak.
Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng were only two newly advanced martial grandmasters. Wu Di did not believe that the ambitious Divine Marquis Ironguts would not have the chance to fight at the summit of the forbidden city.
In short, Wu Di felt that there was no need for the Wu family to get involved. He just let Wu Jian be a quiet spectator.
Wu Jian naturally did not know what Wu Di was thinking. At this moment, he was curious about the information revealed by Wu Di's words.
"From your words, do you know who will win, Ximen Chuixue or Ye Gucheng?”Wu Jian asked.
Wu Di nodded and replied lightly,"Ye Gucheng will win, but he will most likely die."”
"What do you mean?" Wu Jian did not quite understand.
Wu Di replied,
"In addition to refining swords, I've studied all the famous swordsmen in the world.”
"Don't look at Ximen Chuixue as a martial grandmaster, but in terms of sword arts, he has actually regressed. If he were to fight with an ordinary person, he would be fine. But if he were to fight with a master like Ye Gucheng, he would lose.”
Wu Jian was even more puzzled and asked,"
"Where did you get that from? Why did Ximen Chuixue's realm increase, but his sword path regressed?”
"Because what he practices is the Emotionless Sword, the Killing Sword. However, he is married and has children. This feeling will be like a thread that restrains his sword.”
Wu Di explained.
After hearing this, Wu Jian didn't comment and continued to ask,"
"Then why did you say that Ye Gucheng might die?”
Wu Di thought for a moment and replied vaguely,
"Because I'm guessing that the battle between Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng at the summit of the forbidden city isn't that simple.”
"Patriarch, think about it. The Forbidden City is an important place in the Imperial Palace of the Darming Dynasty. How could the Imperial Court of the Darming Dynasty so easily agree to a sword duel between Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng at the summit of the Forbidden City?”
"Just now, the Patriarch said that this competition was initiated by Ye Gucheng and the location was chosen by him. Therefore, the one who might have a problem is naturally him.”
"At that time, with Ye Gucheng's personality, he would probably help Ximen Chuixue and die.”
Wu Jian couldn't help but laugh when he heard that. He replied with a smile,"
"So it turns out that what you said was all your own conjecture.”
"Alright, since you're not interested, I won't delay your sword practice. I'll tell you if your guess is right when I come back from Big Ming, hahaha.”
With that said, Wu Jian left.
"After the decisive battle on the summit of the forbidden city, there will soon be another Sword God in the martial world.”
Wu Di thought of Ximen Chuixue's actions after the battle with Ye Gucheng.
He abandoned his wife and children, then practiced the Heartless Sword, and finally stepped into the realm of Sword God.
He had no intention of judging Ximen Chuixue's actions. Not everyone was like him, possessing the Exquisite Sword Heart and the Chaos Sword Body. They were destined to reach the peak of the sword path.
Very soon, Wu Di threw this matter out of his mind and continued to practice and comprehend the sword.
The Sword Dao was boundless. He had to climb it wholeheartedly.
In Wu Di's heart, his greatest opponents in the future were not the secular people of the Comprehensive Martial World, but the high and mighty Gods, including Haotian.
Without enough strength, how could he kill immortals and gods with his sword?
……
Several days later.
In the Darming Dynasty.
Forbidden City.
"Wu Di was right! There's really something wrong with Ye Gucheng!"
Wu Jian was in the Forbidden City. He looked at the two men in white standing on the top of the building with a complicated expression.
How did a battle at the peak of the sword path turn into a conspiracy to usurp the throne?
If he had known earlier, he would not have made this trip.
It was not worth wasting time on a sword fight that had changed its flavor.
Moreover, looking at the current situation, the sword fight might not go smoothly.
Just as Wu Jian was thinking about this, an extremely sharp voice sounded in the arena,"
"Ye Gucheng, how dare you! He actually dared to usurp the throne. This was a capital crime! Now that you're surrounded, come down quickly and die!”
Wu Jian swept his gaze in the direction of the voice. The person who spoke was Cao Zhengchun, the leader of the Darming Dynasty's East Chamber.
Beside Cao Zhengchun stood a middle-aged man with an imposing aura.
Wu Jian recognized this person as well. He was the leader of the Darming Dynasty's Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa, a member of the Darming Dynasty's Imperial Family, Iron Gut God Marquis Zhu Budian.
The two of them had already led their men from the East Hall and the Dragon Guarding Mountain Villa to surround the Forbidden City Tower, not giving Ye Gucheng a chance to escape.
After Cao Zhengchun spoke, one of the white-robed men at the top of the Forbidden City Tower replied indifferently,"
"Cao Zhengchun, if you have the guts to kill me, come up yourself. Before I fight Ximen Chuixue, I don't mind cutting off your head.”
"Humph! Why would I be afraid of you?"
Cao Zhengchun snorted coldly and was about to fly up.
He was also a martial grandmaster like Ye Gucheng. Moreover, this person was a person with inexplicable confidence. Naturally, he would not be afraid of Ye Gucheng.
At this moment, another man in white on the top of the Forbidden City Tower said coldly,"
"Whoever dares to disturb my battle with Ye Gu Cheng, I will kill him!”
"This…"
Cao Zhengchun stopped himself. He didn't have the ability to fight two people alone.
"Deity Overlord?"
Cao Zhengchun looked at Zhu Budian.
"Let them compete with their swords. Ye Gucheng won't be able to escape anyway. I'll explain to His Majesty.”
Zhu Budian said indifferently.
"Alright then."
Since Zhu Bujue was willing to take on this responsibility, Cao Zhengchun didn't mind as long as Ye Gucheng couldn't escape today.
Without anyone interfering, the battle between Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng began very quickly.
Clang, clang, clang…
The sound of swords colliding could be heard continuously.
In the blink of an eye, Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng had exchanged more than ten moves.
The competition between the two sword grandmasters was extremely fierce.
In the void, the sword qi continued to sweep across, sweeping up countless power torrents.
The two of them fully displayed the exquisiteness of their respective sword techniques. For a moment, it was difficult to tell who was on par with them, making the spectators dizzy.
This made Wu Jian feel that he had not come in vain.
At this moment, a burly man beside Wu Jian asked.
"Patriarch Wu, in your opinion, who will win and who will lose in the end?”
