Chapter 1122: Chapter 1122: Roaming the World with a Sword (26)
Fifteen years ago.
Kongming Valley was draped in silver, with white snow on the ground and large red lanterns hanging on the trees and buildings, exuding the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year.
Inside the valley, there were sounds of excitent and cheers interwoven, faintly echoing out of the valley.
On the martial arts training ground in the valley, many people gathered, with the younger boys standing on the periter, watching the two n in the field comparing their swordsmanship.
Kongming Valley was famous for its sword techniques and had a vast collection, not everyone learned the sa style, and the two n in the field at that mont were using two different techniques.
There were light smiles on everyone’s faces, yet they didn’t know that all of this would end that night.
After everyone went to sleep that night, a group of people stord into Kongming Valley, killing everyone indiscriminately without reason.
It was all orchestrated by the Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch, Qiu Yuehe.
Qiu Yuehe claid that Kongming Valley had obtained a treasure map, and they were there for that map.
The treasure map was indeed found, and they followed it to discover the treasure.
All those involved divided the treasure among themselves and went their separate ways, never eting again.
As the orchestrator, Qiu Yuehe didn’t take those things for himself, he only asked them to find a box in Kongming Valley.
The box contained random, insignificant books, nothing special, and they thought Qiu Yuehe was crazy for forgoing the treasure for a broken box.
However, if Qiu Yuehe wasn’t taking a share, they could take more, and naturally, they were agreeable to that.
In the world of martial arts, countless cases of greed leading to the massacre of entire families have happened.
According to Gao Yong’s account, he and his brother handled the aftermath by burning all the bodies.
The massacre in Kongming Valley also caused quite a stir in the martial arts world, and people were searching for clues at the ti.
But nothing ca of it, and as ti passed, the event faded from people’s mories.
Kongming Valley gradually beca a thing of the past, occasionally rembered only when soone spoke of swordsmanship, recalling the once-famous Kongming Valley.
–
Gao Qi, facing Qiu Yuehe’s orders, did not take action and instead watched him warily.
Qiu Yuehe: “Gao Qi, what are you hesitating for?”
Gao Qi: “If I kill her now, won’t you silence afterward?”
Qiu Yuehe: “Do you believe her? She’s trying to sow discord! If you don’t kill her, none of us will have a good ti when we leave!”
Gao Qi glanced at the group of people about to disappear, his voice harsh: “Why did you bring so many people to the island? You want us dead too, so that no one knows what you’ve done.”
When they discussed it back then, they didn’t plan to massacre the entire Kongming Valley, they just wanted the treasure.
It was Qiu Yuehe who insisted that if they didn’t kill everyone, they might risk exposure, and the treasure would definitely be leaked.
He emphasized again and again that the people of Kongming Valley must be killed, with no survivors.
Qiu Yuehe shifted the bla to Gao Qi: “If you hadn’t mishandled it, how could today’s events have occurred?”
He didn’t want to kill them either.
But with so many dead outside, there was no guarantee that soone wouldn’t desperately expose him.
He couldn’t take that risk.
After all, since the Great Demon Head Ming Xian was also killing these people, he might as well take them out first, and then when the martial arts world unites, he would be caught in one fell swoop, leaving nobody to know about it.
Gao Qi, seething with anger: “Are you blaming us? We confird everyone was there; if any slipped through, your information was wrong!”
Chuzheng: “…”
Could you show so respect!
Don’t suddenly start talking!!
Qiu Yuehe: “Gao Qi, we’ll settle our affairs later. Right now, the most important thing is dealing with irrelevant people. Do you think her walking out alive will let you live well?”
Gao Qi was silent for a mont.
Seeing this, Qiu Yuehe gathered his Inner Strength in his hand and directly directed it at Chuzheng.
Chuzheng, wary of Qiu Yuehe, lightly tapped her toes on the ground, stepping on the invisible Yin Xian, jumping straight into the air.
Gao Qi, knowing Qiu Yuehe wouldn’t spare him, suddenly attacked Qiu Yuehe.
“Courting death!”
Qiu Yuehe shouted angrily, drawing the Soft Sword wrapped around his waist for battle.
Qiu Yuehe’s Inner Strength was deep, while Gao Qi had lived too comfortably on this island, no match for Qiu Yuehe.
But with Chuzheng’s help, Gao Qi didn’t lose in just a few moves.
Qiu Yuehe didn’t take Gao Qi seriously, but he found Chuzheng difficult to handle.
The air around seed to have so invisible force, and every ti he tried to strike Chuzheng, it would suddenly spring out, disturbing his attack, even threatening with deadly intent.
However, Qiu Yuehe also realized Chuzheng’s Inner Strength wasn’t deep; she was just relying on speed and the strange elents in the air.
The three figures intermingled constantly in the air, separating, trailing one shadow after another.
Gao Qi was the first to be struck by Qiu Yuehe, kicked to the ground, injured gravely.
Chuzheng followed, landing on the plum blossom posts of the training ground.
Qiu Yuehe squinted his eyes: “Little girl, of all places, you chose to co here; dying here today is really a pity.”
“A pity indeed.”
Chuzheng repeated the last three words.
Qiu Yuehe frowned, not understanding what Chuzheng found pitiable, glanced suspiciously around, discovering nothing strange.
At that mont, Qiu Yuehe heard a slight sound in the air.
As if sothing suddenly tensed.
Chuzheng raised her hand, making Qiu Yuehe uneasy, stepping back, feeling an icy sothing against his ankle; he glanced down, only to see a fleeting silvery flash.
What was that?
Qiu Yuehe didn’t see clearly, but sensed sothing was wrong with it.
Chuzheng’s plan was to flip Qiu Yuehe to the ground, but just as she was about to act, she caught sight of a white shadow rushing towards them.
Chuzheng: “!!!”
Has the Good Person Card gone mad!
Ming Xian moved with incredible speed, leaving Chuzheng no ti to call out, so she withdrew the Yin Xian behind Qiu Yuehe.
Hearing the sound of a cut through the air behind him, Qiu Yuehe turned to see Ming Xian, his expression changing at once: “Ming Xian!”
Why was he here too?
Qiu Yuehe not only saw Ming Xian but also Han Qiqi running over.
Han Qiqi’s expression was inscrutable, standing at the edge watching him.
Ming Xian’s attack was at his face, and Qiu Yuehe could no longer care about Han Qiqi, engaging Ming Xian with his Soft Sword.
At first, Ming Xian’s swordsmanship was completely different from Qiu Yuehe’s; the only similarity was their trendous destructive power, with the entire training ground almost destroyed by them.
But eventually, Chuzheng noticed so similarities between Ming Xian’s and Qiu Yuehe’s sword techniques.
Qiu Yuehe noticed it too, his face unable to hide his shock; at such monts, even a mont of distraction could be the key to win or lose.
Ming Xian seized this mont, delivering a heavy blow to Qiu Yuehe.
