I heard Master is there, and the Great Grandmaster of the Liyue Sword Sect should have arrived already,”
As soon as the carriage stopped, Sima Yingjun rushed frantically to get off.
“Little brother, slow down,” coaxed Sima Manli in a charming rebuke.
Sima Yingjun couldn’t be bothered with that. After getting off the carriage, he realized that the lakeside was crowded with people, and he had to stand on his tiptoes to barely make out what was happening on the lake.
“Senior Bi has long been here!”
“The battle of the Grandmasters is about to start!”
“Grandmaster? What Grandmaster? That’s a Great Grandmaster! Stronger than a Grandmaster!”
“Who is Senior Bi?”
“Protector of the Liyue Sword Sect, one of the surviving Great Grandmasters of our ti.”
“And who is that person facing Senior Bi?”
“Don’t know.”
“Don’t know? How could a nobody be worthy of Senior Bi’s personal challenge?”
“I see that person arrived on an official ship, escorted personally by the Hundred Officials of Nan Du before, this person must be a big shot from the Imperial Family.”
“Where? Where? Let have a look,”
Atop the royal ship’s towering bow stands a young man in black, bathed in the morning light, akin to a Heaven God.
“Indeed, it’s Master.” Having spent so much ti with Pei Jinye, Sima Yingjun recognized him just from his silhouette.
But he gasped in surprise soon after.
For standing next to Pei Jinye was an otherworldly beauty clad in a blue gown, and Sima Yingjun was almost stunned.
Whether it’s the clothing, hair, or makeup, the young woman exuded the ethereal beauty of a fairy descending to earth.
Sima Manli also noticed the woman beside Pei Jinye, and for so reason, she felt a complicated feeling in her heart.
At this mont, Qian, the shopkeeper, was surveying the surroundings when his gaze suddenly sharpened, whispering, “Miss, don’t you think that’s the Governor of Nan Du, Jiang Yingrong?”
“It is him.” Sima Manli recognized Jiang Yingrong at a glance, “As the top official of Nan Du, he’s shown up in person here. Could it be because of Elder Pei?”
“Of course,” responded Sima Yingjun as a matter of course, “Only Master could attract so many big shots to this place, the envy of all.”
Sima Manli couldn’t help but look on.
“That is!” Qian’s voice suddenly changed.
“What’s going on, Uncle Qian?” Both Sima siblings turned their heads at the sa ti.
Qian the shopkeeper withdrew his gaze and whispered, “The Sect Leader of Iron Sand Gate, Zhang Yichen, is also here. He was a half-step Great Grandmaster ten years ago.”
“The Sect Leader of Iron Sand Gate, a half-step Great Grandmaster?” Sima Yingjun couldn’t help but gasp.
Usually, he couldn’t even catch a glimpse of a Grandmaster.
Yet today, just by stepping out, he encountered a half-step Great Grandmaster.
Unexpectedly, Qian the shopkeeper continued in a lowered voice:
“And that person next to him, Tiandu Prefecture Guardian, Ren Jinglong, a half-step Grandmaster.”
“The one a little further to the left in the purple robe is the Grandmaster of the Green Vine Sword Pavilion, Wu Yuanhang, also a half-step Grandmaster…”
Subsequently, Qian the shopkeeper identified many well-known Martial Arts Masters.
He listed their titles like treasures from his own ho.
“Seven Extinctions Sword Immortal Guo, Fire Symbol Palm King Sect Leader, Eight Extres Gate Sect Leader Li…”
The more he nad, the more astonished Qian the shopkeeper, Sima Yingjun, and the others beca.
Unbeknownst to them, famous families from Nan Du and the vicinity had all made appearances.
“All these people are the mighty figures of this generation. The power they gather here can annihilate small countries, but now… They’re all here, controlling even the volu of their speech, daring not to speak loudly. How powerful, then, must Elder Pei and Senior Bi be?”
There was a touch of envy in Qian the shopkeeper’s tone.
Suddenly, Sima Yingjun understood why the Governor of Nan Du, Jiang Yingrong, had ordered the sealing of the canal.
Because the Master was already a major figure in everyone’s eyes!
At that mont,
The old fisherman at the heart of the lake slowly stood up, took off his conical hat, revealing silver hair and a face no different from that of a young man.
A head of white hair on a youthful face! Barefoot and white-robed!
Seeing Bi Yuntao’s appearance, even a young man like Sima Yingjun couldn’t help but exclaim aloud.
But before he could utter a word,
Bi Yuntao’s voice ca thundering across the lake.
“I have waited for you a long ti, I hope you won’t disappoint !” His voice bood out like thunderous volcanic eruptions, the trendous sound reverberating over the entire Buried Immortal Lake, creating a surge of waves that roared toward the shore, forcing the hundreds of silhouettes along the bank to cover their ears.
So of the physically weaker ones felt their legs giving way.
At a distance of a hundred ters,
The giant ship where Pei Jinye stood was like caught in a tempest.
Under Manager Li’s shocked gaze,
Pei Jinye simply braced his feet, and the quaking giant ship steadied, suppressing the enormous wave as if sealing it away.
“Prepare the Spiritual Tea, I’ll have it later,”
Pei Jinye dropped this line and took a step forward.
Striding dozens of ters,
The mont he touched down on the water, a terrifying tidal wave bigger than before surged on Buried Immortal Lake.
These waves rushed directly at Bi Yuntao, rolling like a swelling sea!
The surroundings erupted into astonishnt.
Aside from the people of the Sima family, nobody knew about Pei Jinye.
But now, seeing that hundred-ter-long white streak across the river, like a heavenly Giant Sword cleaving the lake,
his speed defied their imagination!
“He’s a Great Grandmaster!”
“He truly is a Great Grandmaster!”
The expressions of the dozens of Grandmasters present changed almost simultaneously.
“Boom!”
At that mont, a loud noise ca from the surface of the lake.
