“I really didn’t expect they would dare to challenge the great celestial master.
No wonder, no wonder!”
Within a concealed base of the Mire Sect, the Sect Leader, Zhao Baiyang, wears an expression of sudden understanding.
Since the day they left Tiandu, the Mire Sect Leader and others promptly scattered in different directions.
Even though they were powerful enough not to fear pursuit, they each had a large number of subordinates. If they were truly besieged by the imperial court’s army, then fears were that, besides them, no one could escape.
During this period, Zhao Baiyang contrived a tactic to break up the forces of the Mire Sect, each to hide and evade the hunt. He himself chose to hide in a
secret base, to recover from his injuries.
Even though the Lawlessness had been lost in the battle that day, there were still other powerful forces within the imperial city.
Although the three of them were able to eliminate those few powerful men, they each suffered considerable injuries and their strength was greatly damaged.
Not until a few days ago did Zhao Baiyang finally recover from his injuries, his strength completely restored, and only then did he have time to pay attention to what was happening in the martial world. So, he became aware of Pei Xuanjing’s actions over the past few months.
The very moment he received the news, Zhao Baiyang made a guess; Pei
Xuanjing was probably going to challenge a supreme of the martial arts realm.
However, even he never thought that Pei Xuanjing would pick the one at Dragon Tiger Mountain to challenge.
Although with the rise of the True Martial Sect, the Dragon Tiger Mountain has shown signs of decline, no one ever dares to underestimate this powerful force that has continued for thousands of years.
Even though the great celestial master hasn’t taken any action for many years, no one doubted that he was ranked first on the list of most powerful martial artists.
Phew…
Zhao Baiyang let out a long breath, muttering to himself, “Brother Pei, Brother
Pei, why the hell did you choose him? Truly…”
Even though he had fought with Pei Xuanjing before and knew that Pei Xuanjing’s current power is not inferior to his own, Zhao Baiyang was not optimistic about the outcome of this battle.
Because those who have not truly crossed hands with the great celestial master simply have no idea how terrifying his strength really is.
“Master, is the great celestial master very strong?” Yu Yiyao asked with a curious expression on her face, “As a powerful man on the supreme list of martial arts, can’t you even defeat him?”
To Yu Yiyao’s recollection, her master had never praised anyone so highly. Even when facing the second-ranked Sky Demon Sect Leader on the supreme list, he was not inferior in the slightest.
Zhao Baiyang sighed lightly and said to his disciple, “Consider this as a piece of advice from your master! In this world of martial arts, even if you are confident in your own strength, never underestimate anyone.” Yu Yiyao nodded, vowing to remember her master’s teachings.
Zhao Baiyang had a profound memory of the great celestial master.
He would never forget when his power first matured, he once climbed to Dragon Tiger Mountain to challenge the great celestial master.
Of course, needless to say, the result was that Zhao Baiyang lost miserably.
In Zhao Baiyang’s view, the reason why the opponent is still at the first-grade realm is due to the constraints of Heaven and Earth, not because of the opponent’s own limitations.
Even after so many years, despite the enormous changes in his own strength, Zhao Baiyang still lacked confidence.
He had a feeling that if he attempted to launch an all-out attack, the final outcome would probably be a split of three to seven.
He would have three, and the celestial master would have seven.
This was under the condition that the opponent was now old, and his Blood Qi was weak.
“However, if I wait to seize the remaining techniques and use the complete secret teachings of the White Lotus Sect to fully complete my own power, I might not lose to him!” Zhao Baiyang thought to himself.
“Right, you must quickly find the whereabouts of the remaining branches, and must seize the White Lotus Sect’s secret teachings from them.” Zhao Baiyang instructed Yu Yiyao, “I hope that when I come back, I will hear your good news.”
“Yes, master.” Yu Yiyao nodded in agreement, then suddenly looked up and asked, “Where are you going, Master?”
Zhao Baiyang revealed a smile, “Brother Pei is preparing to challenge the great celestial master. Naturally, he has his own confidence. How could I miss such a grand spectacle?”
Indeed, since Pei Xuanjing chose to challenge the great celestial master, he must have an unknown confidence.
Although Zhao Baiyang did not think highly of him, it did not stop him from witnessing this battle. How could he miss such a duel between those two who stand at the pinnacle of martial arts.
Moreover, according to his speculation, at this grand spectacle of the martial arts world, he was likely to meet many ‘old friends’.
For them, who are almost at the extreme of martial arts, why would they want to miss this battle?
As he expected, almost at the moment when news of Pei Xuanjing challenging the celestial master of Dragon Tiger Mountain was announced, many strong men who had been in hiding, chose to go to Dragon Tiger Mountain to witness this fight.
Probably by the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, strong men from all over the world would choose to gather at the Dragon Tiger Mountain. By then, Dragon Tiger Mountain would truly be flooded with a plethora of strong men.
In a mansion outside a town a hundred miles away from Dragon Tiger Mountain, Pei Xuanjing asked the man in front of him, Yu Zhenzi, “Any news yet?”
Yu Zhenzi knew what Pei Xuanjing was asking. He nodded and answered, “According to the message from the messenger eagle, there is no doubt from Bai Xiaosheng’s side, the Emperor is dead.”
It has been three months since the chaos in Tiandu. Although the Mire Sect has adamantly claimed to have killed the Emperor, the imperial court has always insisted that the Emperor did not die, but was severely injured..
