BXBX NOVEL Chapter 82
“Last night, the Golden Lotus Daoist priest of the earth sect came looking for us. He didn’t hurt me, nor did he take back the Book of the Earth. Instead, he invited me to join the Heaven and Earth Society.”
“The heaven and earth Union ...” Wei Yuan turned around and walked into the tea room.
“The founder of the heaven and earth Association was Golden Lotus Daoist from the earth sect, as well as the earth sect’s disciples behind him.” Xu Qi ‘an saw Wei Yuan’s serious attitude and knew that the information he had given was very valuable.
“There are nine core members of the Heaven and Earth Society, and they are also the owners of the ‘Book of the Earth’ fragments. They use the fragment number as their code name and don’t use their real names.” Xu Qi ‘an roughly told her about their conversation last night.
“At the moment, we only know that number one is in the capital and has a strong backing.Number two is in Yunzhou and is passionate about exterminating bandits. He is suspected to be someone from the Imperial court.”
The great eunuch with white sideburns muttered to himself for a long time, then asked, ” we don’t know each other’s identities ... What else did Jin Lian say to you?”
he said that there was a problem with the earth sect, ” Xu Qi ‘an answered honestly. he wanted to clean up the sect, so he set up the heaven and earth Association.
At this point, he saw the eunuch opposite him. His eyes, which contained the vicissitudes of life, suddenly lit up. He stared at him and said in a solemn voice, ”
“Tell me in detail.”
“The earth sect’s Dao chief has fallen into demonic possession, which affected almost all of the earth sect’s disciples. Only a few people remained conscious and fled the sect. This is because of the protection of The Earth Book.” Xu Qi ‘an completely sold out the Golden Lotus Daoist priest.
therefore, he established the heaven and earth Association and gave the fragments of the book of the nether world to the proud sons of heaven scattered all over the world. He supported them so that he could get help when he cleaned up his house in the future.
‘The Taoist chief has been possessed by the devil. Could it be that the purple Lotus has become sinister and evil ...’ There was no expression on Wei Yuan’s elegant and handsome face. He asked in a testing tone, “”Why do you think Golden Lotus told you all this?”
Xu Qi ‘an was about to say that he didn’t know, but when he met Wei Yuan’s deep eyes, he could hear the probing in his tone and swallowed his words.
With Wei Yuan’s cunning, he’s definitely not looking for an answer from me ... He’s testing my level.
Uh ... If I had blurted out ‘I don’t know’ just now, would this eunuch think that I’m not smart enough and that I’m just an ordinary subordinate?
Xu Qi ‘an’s brain suddenly became active, and the expression on his face was quite relaxed. He smiled and said, ”
“All the members of the Tiandi society are aware of the earth sect’s abnormality. You’re showing me your sincerity by telling me the truth.”
Wei Yuan nodded slightly. the earth sect’s whereabouts are hidden. The night watchman still doesn’t know the inside story of the demonic side.
..... Xu Qi ‘an’s eyes widened. Lord Wei, do you mean that Golden Lotus Taoist is using me as a medium to secretly form an alliance with you? ” he asked.
Wei Yuan nodded in satisfaction. He didn’t answer and said gently, “”In the future, you’ll be the spy of the night watchman in the Heaven and Earth Society, responsible for finding out the true identity of the other members. When necessary, the Yamen will provide you with some help.”
Xu Qi ‘an cupped his fists and replied,”yes.”
If I had acted a little slower just now, Guild Wei wouldn’t have taken back The Earth Book fragments and replaced me with an extremely intelligent subordinate to sneak into the heaven and earth Association and be a traitor?
A Big Shot’s probing was like a breeze, and one could make a mistake if they were not careful ...
Wei Yuan said, ” you’re already in the Qi refining stage. It’s time for you to try cultivating the ultimate techniques. Go to the Sutra library and pick one.
“Do you prefer a saber or a sword?”
“Saber!” Xu Qi ‘an replied.
When he was still a minor official, he had been carrying a podao. Although he rarely used it, he had carried it with him for many years. His affinity with the podao was always stronger than that of the sword.
“Remember to pick simple and pure saber techniques when you’re choosing your ultimate technique,” Wei Yuan reminded. I don’t want anything that is too complicated or gaudy.
“Martial artists are different from other systems. They don’t have much divinity, only strange strength. “Therefore, the purer a martial artist is, the better it is. You’ll understand this when you step into the higher ranks in the future.”
A few simple words were worth more than a thousand pieces of gold. Xu Qi ‘an was overjoyed. thank you for your guidance, Lord Wei.
Backing a large organization was just the beginning. If he could gain Wei Yuan’s appreciation and recognition, his career and martial arts would benefit greatly.
The Directorate of Celestials only accepted young boys, not young chickens. The scholarly faction isn’t suitable for me. Moreover, the first two were not from the martial arts system. If one wanted to walk the path of martial arts, one could only rely on a group of martial artists to keep watch at the Yamen.
......
With Wei Yuan’s letter in hand, Xu Qi ‘an went to the Scripture chamber with Li Yuchun.
Li Yuchun looked at the clerk leading the way and said meaningfully, “”When did you get to hug the big and thick leg of Lord Wei?”
“Duke Wei took the initiative to summon me,” Xu Qi ‘an’s expression was innocent.
Li Yuchun nodded slightly. He didn’t show any displeasure, nor did he ask further.
The a-grade aptitude had been personally evaluated by the Duke of Wei, so it was normal for him to have the intention to cultivate Xu Qi ‘an.
Li Yuchun had already known about this, so he did not show any dissatisfaction or jealousy toward him for currying favor with the higher-ups.
First of all, with an A + aptitude, it was inevitable that Duke Wei would pay attention to him. Secondly, Xu Qi ‘an was his subordinate.
With this kind of friendship, he couldn’t wait for Xu Qi ‘an to go higher and higher.
The clerk brought them to a bookshelf and said, “”There are a total of 407 blade manuals, all of which are here.”
After Xu Qi ‘an and the other man nodded, he left the room.
Li Yuchun glanced at Xu Qi ‘an and laughed before he could speak. “Are you going to ask me which blade technique is the strongest?”
Xu Qi ‘an chuckled.
“There are two types of Ultimates, one is skill, and the other is Dao,” Li Yuchun said after some deliberation. You can forget about the latter. For the former, there’s no difference in strength, it only depends on the person.”
The two of them slowly began to pick out the sword manual. Xu Qi ‘an kept Wei Yuan’s warning in mind and did not choose the fancy sword techniques.
Two hours later, Li Yuchun was getting impatient. “You’re not satisfied with anything?”
.... Boss, I forgot to tell you, I have a fear of choices! Xu Qi ‘an nodded with a bitter smile.
Li Yuchun gave it some thought. wait for me.
“Are there any new unique skills recently? I mean the saber manual,” he beckoned to an official and asked.
The clerk pondered for a moment. yes, there is. The Directorate of Celestials sent over a few secret Arts a few days ago. They exchanged them for a few thousand taels of silver.
...
A few thousand taels of silver ... Li Yuchun was stunned for a moment before a smile appeared on his face. “Xu ningyan, you’re in luck.”
“An absolute art worth a few thousand taels of silver,” he explained,”of better quality than the ones inside. I guess there’s an incomplete copy of some saber technique.”
“Dao?” Xu Qi ‘an’s eyes lit up.
“Ultimate techniques with Taoist connotation are usually created by high-ranked martial artists. They contain their lifetime of martial arts comprehension. If one wanted to become a high-ranked martial artist, they could not touch this kind of ultimate technique because it was their Dao. But I can learn the incomplete one.” Li Yuchun instructed the clerk, ”
“Go and find it.”
After a while, an official came over with a few Absolute Arts, one of which was really an incomplete saber Dao absolute art.
“Heaven and earth One slash.”
The person who gave it this name was either a Chuunibyou or a paranoid ... Xu Qi ‘an made a judgment in his heart. He opened the thin book and started the preface.
There’s nothing in this world that can’t be cut in one strike. If there is, my suggestion is to escape.
.... Xu Qi ‘an resisted the urge to throw away the secret manual. He patiently turned to the second page.
After reading the program carefully, he had a change in his opinion of this absolute art.
...
If he guessed correctly, the expert who wrote the book was a paranoid person. He believed that anything in the world could be cut with a single slash, including heaven and earth.
It was the same for the enemy.
Any unnecessary moves or attacks were an insult to martial Dao.
I’ll only use one blade, and it’s either you die or I die. Of course, being paranoid didn’t mean that he had lost his mind. The program mentioned that when encountering a strong and invincible opponent, it was recommended to run away.
Xu Qi ‘an silently finished reading the program and re-wrote the prologue to this ultimate art in his heart:Focus on one point and reach the peak!
He closed the book, his eyes shining.
