Chapter 98 - 98: 84: Sudden Thunderstorm, Wind

Xie Lingfeng took several deep breaths to calm himself, saying in a deep voice, “Brother Xu, continue!”

“Are you sure you want me to continue?”

Xu Yan hesitated.

“Continue!”

Xie Lingfeng gritted his teeth.

“Alright.”

Xu Yan nodded and continued, “After the Bone Refinement stage is the Organ Refinement stage… Thunder resonates in tendons and bones, and Qi courses through the blood, marking the entry to Martial Arts. I have already reached the peak of Qi and blood circulation!”

When Xu Yan had finished speaking, Xie Lingfeng felt as if his head was going to explode. He heard a buzzing sound and felt as if his head was on fire.

It was as if his mind was ablaze!

He was gasping for breath, his eyes gradually becoming dull, and he started questioning his entire existence.

He had started practicing Martial Arts when he was six, and had entered the door to Sword Dao when he was six… Everyone praised him as the Sword Prodigy, the foremost Sword Dao genius of the last thousand years.

He also thought so.

In the Inner Domain, there were few who could stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

And in terms of Sword Dao, he was the best of his generation.

But upon arriving in this frontier, it was as if he had uncovered a cruel truth he hadn’t even entered the door to Sword Dao.

What’s more, the Martial Arts that he had been training was nothing but a sham!

Hu Shan was panting heavily, his eyes bloodshot, gritting his teeth and growling, “Stop spouting nonsense, my Sword Prodigy lineage couldn’t possibly be based on sham Martial Arts!”

Xu Yan showed no anger, but rather a gaze filled with pity. It truly was pitiful to have cultivated for the most of one’s life, only to discover that one had been practicing a sham version of Martial Arts.

It was understandable to find it hard to accept.

He couldn’t help but reflect on himself: “Was I too blunt?”

His mouth asked: “Let me ask you: My Qi and blood have reached perfection, but I have only just entered the realm of Martial Arts. In contrast, you’ve reached the realm of Grandmaster, the epitome of Martial Arts, but your strength is inferior to mine.

“Isn’t the distinction between real and sham Martial Arts clear enough?”

“I…”

Hu Shan couldn’t find his words.

Here was someone who had just entered Martial Arts, whereas someone else had already peaked in Martial Arts. The result was that the beginner was stronger. This made it very clear who was training in the real style and who was learning the false one.

Xie Lingfeng rose to his feet in a dazed and listless manner, saying, “Brother Xu, thank you for your enlightenment. I need some time to contemplate. I will visit you another day to express my gratitude!”

“It’s nothing, Brother Xie. Go ahead!”

Xu Yan revealed a bright smile.

Xie Lingfeng and Hu Shan took to the air and headed back to the Imperial City of the Qi Country.

Their journey to this frontier was initially meant to kill the heartless Blood-No-Heart, but it turned out that he was already dead.

Unexpectedly, there were Martial Artists in this desolate place.

But the result of their combat led to the shocking revelation that they had been training in a sham form of Martial Arts?

Their worldview on Martial Arts has collapsed!

The Imperial City was bustling with activity.

Emperor Qi and his ministers were waiting for the result of the battle.

Finally, two figures returned.

They headed straight back to their residence in the palace.

Emperor Qi was delighted, “Quick, prepare a generous gift to thank the high-ranking individual!”

He provocatively glared at Guo Rongshan, as if saying “just wait and see!”

Guo Rongshan felt a sinking sensation in his heart.

As soon as Emperor Qi left, the officials dispersed like they were avoiding the plague, staying far away from Guo Rongshan and his son. They followed closely behind Emperor Qi, shouting praises of his wisdom and bravery.

“Father!”

Guo Yunkai looked worried.

“Yan’er is back!”

Guo Rongshan suddenly spoke, his body relaxing.

Xu Yan was flying over.

“Yan’er, I’m glad you’re ok. What was the outcome?”

Guo Rongshan let out a sigh of relief.

“Grandpa, don’t worry. The Martial Arts practiced by Xie Lingfeng and his ilk are nothing more than a sham. They’re not a threat. He has already realized his shortcomings!”

Xu Yan said with a smile.

Guo Rongshan paused, looked back towards the palace, squinted his eyes.

“Yunkai, send out an order for a grand court assembly to be held tomorrow!”

“Understood, Father!”

Guo Yunkai was also overjoyed.

Xu Yan was victorious!

At a separate palace, where Xie Lingfeng and Hu Shan resided, after they returned, they sat on the stone stools, staring blankly, their bodies feeling numb.

Xu Yan’s discussion on Martial Arts had dealt a huge blow to them. Their worldview on Martial Arts had collapsed, and they started questioning their existences.

Especially Xie Lingfeng, who was constantly replaying Xu Yan’s discussion on Martial Arts in his head. The more he thought about it, the more peculiar it seemed, as if it wasn’t real. His brain felt burnt out, but he still couldn’t understand how such an incomprehensible form of Martial Arts was cultivated.

“Honored guests, honored guests, did you bring Xu Yan’s head back?”

Emperor Qi excitedly ran over.

The Crown Prince followed behind him.

As for the Third Prince, he was already being neglected.

“Honored guests?”

Emperor Qi looked puzzled. Why did his revered guests seem a bit… off?

They didn’t even react when he approached them.

“Honored guests? Both of you?”

Extended his hand and waved it in front of Xie Lingfeng’s eyes.

“Get out of my sight!”

Finally, one of the respected guests reacted, but it was to seize Emperor Qi by the collar and throw him out.

The Crown Prince’s face turned white, swallowing hard, he hurriedly made a hasty exit. Outside the palace, he saw his father, Emperor Qi, getting up with a livid look on his face.

“Father!”

He hastened to help him up.

Emperor Qi’s face was dark with anger as he said, “Those you invited…”

“Shh!”

The Crown Prince’s face turned white from fear, hastily raising a finger signaling Emperor Qi to stay quiet.

Emperor Qi quickly shut his mouth and under the support of the chief eunuch, left with a dark face.

“His Majesty, Grandmaster Guo wishes to hold a grand court assembly tomorrow!”

An eunuch hurriedly came with news.

Emperor Qi was furious, “That Guo…”

“His Majesty, Xu Yan has returned!”

The eunuch quickly interjected.

Emperor Qi swallowed his words, his face turning red with anger. He gritted his teeth and said, “Summon the ministers for a grand court assembly tomorrow!”

This is so humiliating!

The Emperor seethed with humiliation. He looked at the Crown Prince standing by his side, took a deep breath, and kicked him to the ground.

“You unfilial son! Where did you find these people? They’re driving me mad!”

After kicking him several times, he felt better and strode away..
