Chapter 45 – Starting Over

Previously, Master He Deng brought the two over by breaking time and space. When re-examined, it seems that the location of the two wasn’t far from the small village full of death and corpses. They should be able to arrive there soon.

“Let’s go,” Jiang Xunyi said, before he began to head east.

Yun Xie grabbed him and smiled, “We should go northwest.”

“…”

At this moment, there was a loud noise nearby, and chaotic branches and stones flew towards them. Yun Xie immediately shielded Jiang Xunyi, knocking aside the rocks with a sweep of his sleeve. He ducked behind a big tree and looked towards the place where the sound came from. The alert look on his face morphed into surprise.

“Jiang Molou?”

There was a dazzling light, filling the air with rainbow halos. A blue-clothed figure rushed out of the sky like lightning and stopped only a few steps away from the two. Suddenly there was a loud noise in the air, and several streaks of light from the glare of black swords condensed into their original shapes. They were all knocked down with only a bare hand. This awe-inspiring move could have come from no one but Jiang Molou.

Jiang Xunyi frowned and jumped out. Yun Xie caught him backhandedly and whispered in his ear, “Look again, your brother is very strong. Nothing will happen to him, so what are you in a hurry for?”

Jiang Xunyi’s ears were itchy with his warm breath, and he slightly hid his head to hide. Right as he ducked, the swords flashed and a person leapt out. His palm slammed against Jiang Molou‘s. Both took a step back and landed on the ground.

Yun Xie felt that the other person was a little familiar, and just as he asked, “Who is this?”, Jiang Xunyi had already exclaimed, “Chen Yuanxin? He has a pale little face[1], and yet he could still return Molou’s blow. Not bad, I must have misread him.”

Yun Xie was dissatisfied and said, “What do you count as a pale little face? Is his face whiter than mine?”

After Chen Yuanxin landed, he staggered, almost falling down before he quickly supported himself on a big tree next to him. He said with a loud voice: “The fame of Lingyin School’s power really is well-deserved, but Sect Master Jiang, think clearly. Everyone is looking for Jiang Xunyi right now. No matter how deep the Lingyin School’s roots are, you still won’t be able to protect him. You have great prestige. As the leader of a school, are you going to let the whole Lingyin School pay for one person? As long as I raise my hand[2], I don’t know how many people will not be happy until he’s dead.”

Jiang Xunyi couldn’t understand and whispered to Yun Xie, “How did I offend them? I can count the number of people that were related to the incident on one hand. Why is everyone so indignant?”

Yun Xie sneered. “Excuses. In the cultivation world, your Lingyin and my Yangxian were originally the top. Finally, not only did Lingyin split in two, but you were also exposed. How can everyone not use this to their advantages? Huh, with how gluttonous everyone is, they really are not afraid to die.”

On the other side, Jiang Molou was unmoved and said to Chen Yuan coldly, “Then I’ll kill you first!”

Before the words were finished, the sword qi burst out with a scary screech. As the blade approached, it released an oppressive energy that even caused their clothes to rise.

Chen Yuanxin looked shocked before his expression relaxed in the blink of an eye. The corners of his lips gradually bent into a strange smile before he began to draw his sword out of the sheath.

However, just after he pulled out his sword, his blade was stopped.

Two slender and white fingers sandwiched the bright blade of the sword. The young man in the light blue robes stood sideways elegantly, exposing his flawless side profile.

“Jiang! Xun! Yi!” Chen Yuanxin was shocked to see who was blocking him and roared angrily, “Jiang Xunyi, why are you still not dead?!”

Jiang Xunyi held his fingers together, holding the sword. He stared at him with a stern expression, his eyebrows mocking.

“You haven’t died yet, so how can I die?” he said.

Jiang Molou was almost unable to stop his sword. If Yun Xie didn’t jab his wrist, Jiang Xunyi would’ve been stabbed by him. Although he knew it was impossible with the others skill, he was still afraid, causing him to break out in a cold sweat. “Nonsense!” he angrily exclaimed.

Jiang Xunyi smiled, stunned. “Kid, you’re going against me?”

Jiang Molou glared at him fiercely before reluctantly returning his sword to its scabbard. When he thought that this man had an accident, his heart hurt with an unspeakable pain. He felt that if Jiang Xunyi could come back safely, he would pay any price. But when he actually saw him, he found that not only was he was still alive and kicking, he wasn’t even taking his own life seriously. He was so angry that his teeth itched. No matter what, he couldn’t give him a warm face.

Jiang Molou has been awkward ever since he was young, so Jiang Xunyi was very experienced in dealing with him. He smiled and said: “I know you’re happy to see me, but the time isn’t right, so express your happiness later. First tell me, what is the situation now?”

Jiang Molou: “…” He was very depressed, but he had to talk about it, so he reluctantly explained.

It turned out that after Jiang Xunyi and Yun Xie somehow disappeared with the old monk, everyone was shocked. Jiang Xunyi’s resurrection was not a trivial matter, and it was hard to distinguish if Yun Xie was a friend or an enemy. If this matter wasn’t settled while Yun Xie was knocked out, the trouble would probably be endless, so he began to look for the two.

Wherever they went, Jiang Molou would naturally go to look, but everyone knew that he and Jiang Xunyi were brothers that were even closer than blood related brothers. No matter where he went, many eyes were on him. Worried and irritable, he fought with several people on his way to find them, even leaving behind his two disciples. Halfway along, he found that Chen Yuanxin was still trailing him, and the two began to fight.

Jiang Xunyi seemed to be listening carefully to Jiang Molou’s story, but his two fingers holding Chen Yuanxin’s sword were motionless. Chen Yuanxin pulled the sword with no results for a while. He was eager to escape and wanted to let go of the sword handle and leave immediately. Unexpectedly, his hand seemed to be stuck to the sword, and he couldn’t let go.

Yun Xie watched with interest. Jiang Xunyi glanced at him then turned his head to Jiang Molou: “Molou, before they come here, you should leave here now and take your two little cubs back to Lingyin Mountain. I will get out and write to you immediately.”

Jiang Molou knew that Jiang Xunyi believed he wouldn’t be able to take a side easily. If he stayed, it was hard not to get involved.

He refused, saying, “I’m not going. There is nothing terrible. What the hell are you doing, you…” He hesitated for a moment. Pretending as if he didn’t care, he said casually, “You‘re not hurt, are you?”

Jiang Xunyi faintly heard voices coming from afar. Unlike usual, he did not tease Jiang Molou and waved his hand. “I am very good, Yun Xie suffered a little injury, and now…”

Jiang Molou was immediately disinterested. “Well, that’s good.”

Yun Xie looked like a white lotus, giving Jiang Xunyi a pitiful stare: “A’Xun, look at him…”

Jiang Molou snorted. “Fake.”

“Both of you shut up!” Jiang Xunyi yelled fiercely. “Molou, hurry up. Do you think I am unable to protect myself? The Lingyin School is in trouble right now. Be careful of people taking advantage of you not being on the mountain.”

In Jiang Molou’s heart, he was not very good at conspiring. However, since Jiang Xunyi’s incident, in the face of pressure from elders and the outside world, he propped up the Lingyin School alone and grew a lot in a short time. He understood the implication immediately, hesitating for a moment before he looked up at Jiang Xunyi.

Jiang Xunyi nodded at him, thinking for a moment before he said, “Help me do something along the way.”

He whispered into Jiang Molou’s ear then patted his shoulder and asked, “Is the time a little tight? Do we still have time?”

Jiang Molou replied, “What a coincidence, I have already brought the person out and I can deliver later.”

Jiang Xunyi smiled and said, “Good boy. Then you can go.”

“Okay.” Jiang Molou clenched his sword handle. “Thank you this time, but if I don’t hear from you within a month, I will never listen to you again in my life.”

Jiang Xunyi said with a smile, “I’m really scared of people like you who bring up lifetimes in their promises. Everyone’s life is so long, how can it be that simple – come on, go!”

Jiang Molou stretched out his finger again as a warning to Yun Xie. He turned around and, with a few leaps, there was not even a shadow of him.

Chen Yuanxin took a deep breath and was about to speak when Jiang Xunyi suddenly ignited a flame from the palm of his hand.

The flames seemed to burn directly on his skin, but Jiang Xunyi’s hands showed no signs of damage. The red flames covered his fair skin, showing a different kind of beauty.

An inch of flame separated from Jiang Xunyi’s palm, and meandered up the sword. The tip of the blade soon became black.

Chen Yuanxin was terrified and said: “What are you going to do? Stop it! Ah—” After he spoke, he couldn’t help screaming.

A person who cultivates will receive their own sword once they reach a certain age, and famous swords have spirits. Once the sword is taken, it is closely related to its owner. Basically, the sword and the man become one. If the sword spirit dies, the person dies too. Jiang Xunyi condensed his spiritual power and melted the end of Chen Yuanxin’s sword, which is tantamount to hitting the other person’s primordial spirit. Ordinary people were naturally unable to withstand this pain.

While Chen Yuanxin let out earth-shattering screams, Yun Xie looked at him with a smile and crossed arms without any discomfort. However, Jiang Xunyi suddenly stopped his hand, his expression somewhat different.

Yun Xie froze for a moment and said, “What’s wrong?”

Jiang Xunyi prodded Chen Yuanxin, who was unconscious on the ground, with his toes, frowning: “What a waste. I wanted to ask him something, but before I could ask, he fainted.”

Yun Xie patted his shoulder and smiled: “That’s nothing. If you want to ask something, I’ll call you a few more people.” After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and shouted to the distance: “Hey, brother over there! Are you looking for Jiang Xunyi? He is here!”

Jiang Xunyi: “…”
