At this mont, several sword lights flew over and landed with swishes. As the sword lights dispersed, a few Daoists appeared, wearing blue Daoist robes and white clothes underneath, with cloth shoes on their feet.
Sword lights swirled around them, suddenly reverting into Flying Swords, flying behind their heads with a few clanging sounds, each falling into its sheath.
Chen Shi stood up with a smile and said, "Could you be senior brothers from the Taihua Qing Palace?"
The Daoists ignored him, hurriedly moving forward to look at the graves, their expressions changed drastically, faces like frosty, glaring fiercely at Chen Shi, Black Pot, and Qing Yang, angrily said, "How dare you trespass into our Taihua Qing Palace forbidden area and eat the grass on Ancestor Master’s Tomb! Such boldness!"
Chen Shi was dumbfounded and stamred, "This is your ancestor’s grave..."
These graves were obviously desolate, certainly not the graves of wealthy families, with no one taking care of them. Chen Shi originally thought they were just a few barren graves. He didn’t expect them to be the burial grounds of Taihua Qing Palace’s ancestor!
If he had known this, he would never have let Qing Yang gnaw on the grave grass here; he would surely choose other graves.
Qing Yang said to him, "This is indeed the Ancestor Master’s Tomb of Taihua Qing Palace. I’ve seen off dozens of ancestors, watching them buried here. During the first year they were buried, the grave grass is the tenderest..."
"Bold!"
The Daoists from Taihua Qing Palace were furious, their expressions darkened, and they fiercely brandished their swords, attacking Qing Yang without hesitation!
With several clangs, the Flying Swords couldn’t harm Qing Yang at all.
Qing Yang was indifferent, pinching one of the Flying Swords to use it for tooth-picking.
"The rogue is formidable!"
The Daoists were astonished, each retrieving their swords, sword lights whirling around them, enveloping them, and with a whoosh, they flew up, breaking through the air, shouting, "Quick, call for reinforcents!"
However, one of the Daoists had his Flying Sword taken by Qing Yang for tooth-picking, and without the sword, he couldn’t fly away. He paled and shouted, "Senior brothers, what about ? What about ?"
Chen Shi consoled him, "Senior brother, we are not evildoers. I am Chen Shi from Xinxiang, the top scorer of this year’s Fifty Provinces. If you don’t mind, you can call Top Scorer Master. I am with your Green Palace..."
Before he finished speaking, the Daoist looked terrified, as if seeing a ghost, and scread, taking off towards the mountain in panic, shouting, "The demon from the Chen Family has co to the mountain, digging up Ancestor Master’s Tomb in fury!"
The Daoist stumbled, suddenly stepped void, and fell off the cliff.
Chen Shi quickly walked to the edge of the cliff, leaned forward, and saw the Daoist lying in the shape of a big character at the bottom of the cliff.
The Daoist had profound cultivation, swiftly got up, limping, and fled fast. He seed to be alright.
Chen Shi wondered, "I am clearly the new Top Scorer Master and not a villain. Why did he say I’m the demon from the Chen Family?"
Qing Yang, while chewing cud, said, "Isn’t it because of your grandfather’s doing? Your grandfather resigned from office and ca to Taihua Qing Palace and nearly beca the next Sect Leader. So, the Green Palace has a rule; anyone from Xinxiang with the surna Chen is a demon."
Chen Shi was still puzzled and said, "My grandfather almost beca the Sect Leader, shouldn’t he be respected?"
Qing Yang corrected him, "I said he almost beca the Sect Leader, not almost beca Sect Leader. Becoming, and beco, are different."
While Chen Shi was contemplating the difference, suddenly, the Taihua Qing Palace exploded with sword lights soaring to the sky, drawing a graceful arc and heading straight over here!
Sword lights hissed and fell to the ground, revealing nurous Daoists, male and female, old and young, all kinds.
The Daoists’ faces darkened, one of them being the Daoist who had fled earlier, ca forward, pointed at Chen Shi, Black Pot, and Qing Yang, and said, "Sect Leader, it’s them who ate the grass on the Ancestor Masters’ Tombs!"
The Sect Leader hurriedly stepped forward, bent down, and bowed, "Disciple Daoist Chang Ying, respectfully invites Ancestor Qing Yang to return to the palace!"
