Chapter 173 - 172: You Don I t Need to Compare Yourself to Him



In July, Gu Ji was appointed as the Vice Inspector of the Ducal Palace of the northwest Dao to investigate the recent upheaval. He was granted full authority over all matters, and was assisted by the Brocade Guards and those sent by the Six Gates.

In August, Gu Ji, serving as Vice Inspector, summoned the major forces of the northwest Dao in the capital city of the West, to inquire about the reasons behind the northwest Dao rebellion.

In September, Gu Ji identified the Diamond Gate as being suspected of colluding with the Mire Sect and summoned people from the Diamond Gate for questioning. The members of the Diamond Gate rejected the summons and the Lord of the Diamond Gate evaded the interrogation.

On September 15, Gu Ji ordered a coalition of the Six Gates and various martial artist from the northwest Dao to jointly suppress the traitorous Diamond Gate to rectify the martial world.

The main martial artist factions of northwest Dao, led by Li family of Longxi and Tie Qianshan, the leader of Tie Sect, along with the skilled fighters of Six Gates and Brocade Guards, penetrated the mountain gate of Diamond Gate, capturing all disciples. Any rebel was killed without mercy.

The Lord of Diamond Gate cultivated the Dragon Elephant Art to the ninth level, his unrivaled stance led the elders and disciples to break out of the encirclement, their whereabouts unknown.

Thus, the long-standing Diamond Gate that dominated the northwest Dao for many years was destroyed, and its original interests were divided amongst various factions led by the Li family and the Tie Sect.

In a stronghold of Mire Sect, Zhao Baiyang was holding a book, at this moment devoid of any majesty that he would usually possess as the supreme ruler of the martial world, appearing more like a refined scholar.

The rebellion of the northwest Dao was Zhao Baiyang’s meticulous planning over the years, yet this failure didn’t seem to have affected him at all.

Since returning from the northwest Dao, Zhao Baiyang has secluded himself in this stronghold, seemingly unmindful of the affairs of the martial world.

“Master.” Yu Yiyao walked into Zhao Baiyang’s study room and spoke softly.

Zhao Baiyang, after finishing reading the page in his hand, asked with a gentle smile on his face: “What’s the matter?”

“I received a message that Diamond Gate was destroyed by the imperial court’s coalition along with several major factions in the northwest Dao. The Lord of Diamond Gate led elders and disciples to break through, but only one-tenth survived. The Lord of Diamond Gate reached out to us, hoping that we could help them cover their tracks.” Yu Yiyao asked quietly.

The martial artists of Diamond Gate were adept at physical body cultivation. Although there was only one first-grade martial artist, the Lord of Diamond Gate, the second-class elders were not weaker than the average first-grade martial artist.

Mire sect has been plotting in the northwest Dao for many years, so they wouldn’t miss the opportunity to draw Diamond Gate closer.

However, Diamond Gate was always trying to play both sides. While they cooperated with Mire Sect, they never dared to completely break with the Great Ming imperial court, fearing complete destruction.

Therefore, even during the recent rebellion in the northwest Dao, Diamond Gate acted cautiously, and quickly withdrew when they saw the situation turning unfavorable.

Unbeknownst to them, their movements had already been noticed by attentive forces. Once Gu Ji arrived in the northwest Dao, someone exposed this matter.

After all, Diamond Gate had been dominating the northwest Dao for many years and had taken a lot of interests. Their arrogant and overbearing style had also offended many people.

Although Zhao Baiyang was somewhat dissatisfied with Diamond Gate’s previous actions, he was not totally intolerant.

‘You go to the northwest Dao personally, to help them leave.” Zhao Baiyang said.

No matter what the people of Diamond Gate thought before, after surviving this disaster, they have nowhere to go. They have no choice but to walk the same path as the Mire Sect, and there is no other way out.

‘Yes, Master.” Yu Yiyao nodded her head.

Seeing Yu Yiyao still seemed to have something to say, Zhao Baiyang asked: “Is there something else?”

Seeing her master’s inquiry, Yu Yiyao hesitated before saying: “I heard rumors that the Lord of Shenxiao Gate is planning to act against Pei Xuanjing, so I wanted to ask Master…”

“Ask me what?”

“I want to ask master, should we intervene as well. After all, we have our grievances with that Pei Xuanjing, and he has interfered with our plans on several occasions.” Yu Yiyao said.

“There’s no need.” Zhao Baiyang rejected the suggestion.

“Master, why?” Yu Yiyao’s countenance changed slightly, she didn’t understand.

The name ‘Pei Xuanjing’ was like a weight pressing down on Yu Yiyao, making it hard for her to breathe.

She is the saintess of Mire Sect and has a master known as a top person in the martial world. She should have been one of the most outstanding among the younger generation in the martial world.

However, a certain Pei Xuanjing, despite being her peer, far exceeded her in strength, and has even reached a level that can be compared with her master.

How could this not increase her pressure.

Not only Yu Yiyao, but almost all the young people in the martial world feel the same way.

Especially after the release of the Bai Xiaosheng’s Hidden Dragon Ranking, all the young people who haven’t ranked turned their attention to the hundred newcomers.

However, those who made the list, especially those talented youngsters like Yu Yiyao, were fully aware that there was one person who was not on the list, but he will always be the best among the younger generation.

As long as Pei Xuanjing is there, he will always outshine them.

“You don’t really need to compare yourself with him.” Zhao Baiyang chuckled.

Zhao Baiyang admitted that his own disciple was highly talented and might one day reach the same realm as him.

However, this requires the accumulation of time. The current Yu Yiyao was still too young, and it wasn’t known how many years it would take her to reach the peak of martial arts.

However, Pei Xuanjing was different. Even to Zhao Baiyang, he would not see Pei Xuanjing with the eyes of an elder.

From the night in the ruined temple, after the trial of strength with Pei Xuanjing, Zhao Baiyang placed Pei Xuanjing on the same level as himself.

If Yu Yiyao needs time to grow to reach the peak of martial arts, then Pei Xuanjing is already standing at the peak of martial arts.

To Zhao Baiyang, Yu Yiyao can only follow him as a junior.

However, Pei Xuanjing was different. He could compete with Zhao Baiyang, and was seen as an adversary, a Taoist friend, an enemy, and a friend in the path of martial arts.

Yu Yiyao’s eyes flashed with reluctance, she wanted to prove to her master.

She may be weaker than Pei Xuanjing now, but she will one day show her master that she is in no way inferior to Pei Xuanjing.

Zhao Baiyang saw through his disciple’s thoughts, but he just chuckled and didn’t say much about it.

After all, everyone was young once.

Did he not think he could break the shackles when he was young?

Pei Xuanjing had no idea that his existence was a source of pressure for many young top martial artists in the Great Ming’s martial world, and that his achievements left many of them huffing and puffing, with gritted teeth, trying to catch up.

However, even if he knew, Pei Xuanjing would just brush it off with a smile, not taking it to heart.

In Pei Xuanjing’s eyes, his adversaries are only those supreme figures in the martial world. Only these people are worthy of being his enemies and adversaries..
