Chapter 120: Chapter 119: Waiting for the Appointment, Unexpected Incident (Seeking Monthly Pass)
Translator: 549690339
Whether to go to the True Martial Sect or not, Pei Xuanjing had yet to make a decision.
If it was prior to the Battle of Xuanfu, Pei Xuanjing would unquestionably have agreed without hesitation.
But after that, Pei Xuanjing had some hesitations.
Though the True Martial Sect had been extending goodwill, Pei Xuanjing kept cautiousness towards such a great force.
After all, the meaning represented by the three words “True Martial Sect” was different.
Without exaggeration, if the True Martial Sect claimed to be the top force in the martial world, probably there would be dissenters and disbelievers.
However, if the True Martial Sect claimed to be the second, none of the forces in the martial world dared to claim they could be the first.
Neither Dragon Tiger Mountain nor the Northern and Southern Zen Sect of Buddhism School, or even the several major Demonic Sects of the Demonic Way , could.
Besides, the Taoist Qingxu, the sect leader of the True Martial Sect, was considered a powerhouse, who could arguably rank among the top three in the world.
With his current strength, Pei Xuanjing could perhaps defeat some first-grade martial artists, but when facing a dominant powerhouse like the Taoist Qingxu, there may be some discrepancies.
The True Martial Sect, with its profound heritage, had not only this famous Taoist Qingxu but also masters whose number was unknown.
Plus, a Bai Xiaosheng with unlmown capabilities.
For Pei Xuanjing at this moment, Taihe Mountain was like a dragon’s pool and a tiger’s den, even more dangerous than Tiandu.
It can be said, his hesitation came here.
Though there were many explanations for the extinction of the Shenxiao Sect, Pei Xuanjing did not completely believe them, he felt there must be another reason behind it.
“What is the true reason for the demise of the Shenxiao Sect? And why does the “Shenxiao Jade Book” fall into the hands of the True Martial Sect? What role did the True Martial Sect play in the demise of the Shenxiao Sect?” Many doubts arose in Pei Xuanjing’s heart.
Pei Xuanjing looked at Qingyang Zi and quietly said, “I need to know the real reason for the extermination of the Shenxiao Sect.”
Before Qingyang Zi could respond further, he solemnly added, “I mean the real reason, so please consider carefully.”
“If you know the answer, are you willing to go to Taihe Mountain?” Qingyang Zi asked.
Pei Xuanjing nodded, “Yes!”
“Alright, this matter is of great importance and cannot be explained in a few words. Even I don’t know most of the crucial information, I need to consult with the sect leader. So, please wait for me for three days, and I will provide you an explanation then.” Qingyang Zi replied after some thought.
“Okay!” Pei Xuanjing agreed.
From Qingyang Zi’s attitude, it was known that as Pei Xuanjing had guessed, the previous matter had hidden details and was not as simple as it seemed.
Qingyang Zi nodded and left without saying more.
Seeing Qingyang Zi leave in a hurry, a smile formed at the corner of Pei Xuanjing’s mouth, and he made up his mind.
Just now, he had come up with an idea.
This was to drag for a while, wait until he had accumulated enough Tao Yun values for two life simulations, perform the simulations, and then climb the mountain.
Although the last life simulation had not resulted in a breakthrough or an increase in skill, the original Dragon Elephant Art had been of great help, providing him with some ideas for his future body cultivation.
If he could perform two more life simulations, he would definitely improve his strength and increase some certainty, even if he did not break through.
Moreover, Pei Xuanjing understood that since the other party was so eager to recruit him, they might not turn against him unless necessary.
So, taking advantage of this opportunity, if he could learn the techniques of the True Martial Sect, accumulate Tao Yun, and perform several more simulations, he should stand a good chance of breaking through.
By then, even if Taihe Mountain was a dragon’s pool and a tiger’S den, he would have a fair chance of leaving unhindered.
Time flew by, and Pei Xuanjing continued to stay hidden in this inn.
Aside from his daily cultivation and refining Taoyun, he sat in the inn’s lobby listening to the martial artists talk about interesting events from the martial world.
Most of the discussions, in fact, had to do with Pei Xuanjing, who was the most eminent figure in the martial arts world of Great Ming.
In a short time, he had risen to prominence, done countless astonishing deeds, accomplished things that many people would never have achieved in their lifetime, and had made a name for himself in the martial world.
However, nobody thought that the popular figure they were discussing every day would disguise himself as an ordinary monk and live in this common inn.
On the third day, Pei Xuanjing, like usual, sat by the window, looking out.
He was waiting for Qingyang Zi’S appointment, hoping that the latter could bring satisfactory answers.
The more he heard about the interesting stories, the more curious he became about the incident of Shenxiao Sect.
What had happened that made the imperial court of Great Ming decide to eliminate a sect with thousands of years of heritage, regardless of the cost?
Why would the famous sect leader of True Martial Sect and the so-called omniscient Bai Xiaosheng jointly spend countless efforts to explore the remains or messages left by the Shenxiao Sect?
After thinking and considering, combined with the book of Divine Continent Exotic Records he obtained before, Pei Xuanjing gradually had a guess in his heart?
Longevity!
Probably only the news of longevity could be so attractive.
What is the realm beyond the first-grade martial artist level?
Does longevity really exist?
Did the Shenxiao Sect really find a way to achieve longevity?
But since the temptation of longevity exists, why did the imperial court of Great Ming need to destroy the Shenxiao Sect and hide this information? Didn’t the emperor and those nobles want longevity? Didn’t they want to hold power forever?
That seemed contradictory.
Pei Xuanjing was looking forward to it. He was now very close to uncovering the secret of this world, almost within reach, right in front of him, just waiting for Qingyang Zi to bring the information.
However, sometimes, no one knows whether tomorrow or the unexpected will come first.
Pei Xuanjing, who had been waiting smilingly for Qingyang Zi’s arrival, suddenly looked serious. His eyes narrowed slightly as he looked into the distance.
With his keen senses, he had noticed that a strong man was approaching, and there were many of them.
Those who could be considered as strong individuals by Pei Xuanjing at this moment, at least should be the first-grade martial artists or those with the strength of first-grade martial artists.
Did Qingyang Zi betray him?
Pei Xuanjing first ruled out this possibility.
It’s likely that the news of his arrival at the Hejian Mansion was leaked, and someone guessed that he was here.
So, were they people from the Two Factories or the Six Gates?
It’S important to know that in the past three months, people from these three sides had been tracking him.
Pei Xuanjing had just managed to shake them off not long ago, but he didn’t expect them to be as clingy as dogged plaster and catch up so quickly..
