"Yin Yunxiao, are you blind? Didn't you see soone attacking ?" The young man spat blood while shouting at Yin Yunxiao.
He had waited far too long for this day!
This young man was nad Cang Xingyu, the grandson of the previous Pavilion Master of the Pavilion of Vast lodies. Since Cang Xingyu's father died during an expedition, he beca the sole heir of their family.
The forr Pavilion Master, Cang Yao, was considered a prodigy. He integrated martial arts and music together to establish the vast foundation of the Pavilion of Vast lodies.
However, unfortunately, Cang Xingyu had been weak and sickly since childhood, and his training Gift was also quite average. Despite countless resources being poured into him, his cultivation progress was still extrely slow.
Of course, this slowness is only relative. Compared to most Martial Artists on the Stigma Continent, his cultivation speed was still very fast, but it couldn't even match that of an ordinary disciple of the Pavilion of Vast lodies.
Cang Yao tried countless ways to change his physique but was unsuccessful. Finally, he thought of a very risky thod: forcibly integrating another Martial Artist's Life Pattern into his body to directly acquire their cultivation Gift.
But who would be willing to give up their Life Pattern? Those too weak were undesirable, and the good Life Patterns were unattainable, delaying the process for who knows how long.
Finally, Cang Yao found a fragnt of a Life Pattern. It's said that this fragnt belonged to a rare genius on the Stigma Continent, whose Life Pattern was shattered after being plotted against. By so twist of fate, a piece landed in Cang Yao's hands.
Cang Yao imdiately used the power of a Saint to forcibly fuse this Life Pattern fragnt into Cang Xingyu's body.
With Feng Cong's Life Pattern, Cang Xingyu instantly transford from soone with slightly above-average Gift into a genius.
In a short ti, he broke through from the Void Transformation Realm to the Wheel Mystery Realm. With Feng Cong's Gift and cultivation experience concentrated in the Life Pattern, it was like playing a ga with a strategy guide—could it not be fast?
But gradually, drawbacks appeared. Since it was just a fragnt and incomplete, it clashed severely with Cang Xingyu's own Life Pattern, causing his progress to stall at the Peak of the Wheel Mystery.
This was undoubtedly a huge blow to Cang Xingyu, who thought he had shed the "waste" label, but years passed, and many who were once inferior to him broke through to the Semi-Saint level, even advancing toward the Saint Realm, while he remained stuck at this damn Peak of the Wheel Mystery.
Despite trying various thods, he couldn't break through, and now Cang Xingyu was inseparable from this Life Pattern. Even though he could get complete Life Patterns, not only were they inferior to Feng Cong, but they could also not be fused again.
The only solution was to find other Life Patterns and complete it so he could fully inherit it and break through to the Saint Realm and even greater heights.
"Yin Yunxiao, aren't you doing anything? First, break that brat's leg for !" he roared, pointing at Zhang nglong.
Yin Yunxiao struggled internally for a few minutes before finally focusing his gaze on Zhang nglong.
"What do you intend to do?" Mo Xiaoxi and Duan Xianchen imdiately stood in front of Zhang nglong.
Over the past few months, Zhang nglong indeed taught them so very powerful swordsmanships, particularly his deep understanding of Sword Dao. They genuinely viewed Zhang nglong as their teacher.
For Zhang nglong, even if it ant going against the Pavilion of Vast lodies, so be it.
"Master Yin, don't forget we are both Saints of the Third Realm. You wouldn't want to harm our teacher in our presence, right?" They knew that even if they didn't intervene, Yin Yunxiao could never harm Zhang nglong, but if not now, then when should they take a stance?
Yin Yunxiao showed a helpless expression. Solo, he was no match, let alone when there were two people.
"Xingyu, I'm sorry, I'm not their opponent." Yin Yunxiao said.
"Hahaha," Zhang nglong laughed, "Kid, sorry, if I hit you, you just have to take it. I hit you, what can you do?"
"Yin Yunxiao, you worthless!" Cang Xingyu cursed in anger.
"I see you're about to bust a vein; you might as well do a good deed and return that Life Pattern to my brother. After you die, I'll make sure to burn more money and beauties for you in the afterlife." Zhang nglong walked towards Cang Xingyu. Initially, he felt a bit guilty since it sullied his honor to attack an innocent person.
But now, seeing the malicious intent on the other side, Zhang nglong cast aside moral concerns. Winner takes all; if they lacked strength today, it would've likely been Feng Cong losing his Life Pattern instead.
Yin Yunxiao initially wanted to step forward and stop them. Although he couldn't help Cang Xingyu snatch the Life Pattern, he couldn't stand by and watch Cang Xingyu's Life Pattern get taken either.
Due to the mutual repulsion of Life Patterns, Cang Xingyu was extrely fragile now. With his current weak body, if his Life Pattern was taken, it would not only an his strength dropping but also a direct path to demise.
"Please mind yourself, Pavilion Master," Zhang nglong said. "Xiaoxi, tell your friend not to act recklessly."
"Yes, Teacher!" Mo Xiaoxi would absolutely obey Zhang nglong's orders; even though Zhang nglong could handle it himself, letting them act was a sign of trust in them.
Yin Yunxiao was only at the Second Realm of the Saints and had little resistance in front of Mo Xiaoxi.
"Actually, I might not even need to kill you," Zhang nglong produced an elixir, "Swallow this, and at worst, your realm will drop, and you'll just have to train again."
"No!" Cang Xingyu outright refused. He had been labeled "useless" for too long and didn't want to return to that state.
"Grandfather! Where are you? They're trying to kill !"
"Your grandfather won't co," Zhang nglong calmly advanced, noting that Yin Yunxiao earlier ntioned the old Pavilion Master was away, leaving rely Yin Yunxiao as the Saint in the entire Pavilion of Vast lodies.
"Who dares to touch him!" Suddenly, a voice full of anger enveloped the entire courtyard.
"Grandfather?"
"What the heck? Coming back now, such lodrama?" Zhang nglong frowned, knowing the once easily attainable goal would now require more effort.
"Old Pavilion Master!" Yin Yunxiao also showed delight, having not seen his teacher for centuries.
"Hmph, is this how you manage the pavilion?" Cang Yao showed a displeased expression.
"I..."
"Grandfather, he has other fragnts of that Life Pattern on him. Help
seize them, please!"
"Oh?" Cang Yao's gaze fell on Feng Cong, "Indeed!"
This ti out, he had been looking for Life Pattern fragnts to help Cang Xingyu and also to explore other possibilities. After centuries with little success, he didn't expect the owner of the Life Pattern fragnts to show up at their door.
"Two Saints of the Third Realm?"
"Old Pavilion Master!" Mo Xiaoxi and the others slightly bowed toward Cang Yao. In terms of seniority, he was also considered their elder.
"Sword God and Sword Saint, I've long heard of your renowned nas," Cang Yao coldly laughed, "but it's not going to be easy to take my grandson's Life Pattern from old !"
Cang Yao waved his hand, summoning a red guqin.
He strumd it casually, and visible energy waves surged toward the two.
These waves not only carried formidable energy but also a unique musical aura, giving them imnse penetrating power.
The two imdiately unleashed Sword Qi. Although they managed to block the forces, they retreated two steps, clearly showing the gap in strength.
"Step back!" Zhang nglong gestured, "So you want a musical duel, huh?"
