Chapter 141 Prelude to the Final Battle

The Sun-Moon Sect in this world is more like a fusion of the Sun-Moon Divine Sect in "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" and the Ming Cult in "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber".

After the leader and deputy leader, there is the Saintess, then the left and right emissaries, the four Dharma Kings, the five scattered people, and the followers...

It can be said that the levels are clearly defined.

The Sun Moon Sect is listed among the 'Five Mountains and Seven Sects' and is the most special of the twelve sects.

The reason why it is special is that the founding emperor of the Suzaku Dynasty was from this sect.

But even under such circumstances, after the establishment of the Suzaku Dynasty, the Sun Moon Sect still did not become the 'state religion', but instead joined other sects in the martial arts world.

Even though more than a hundred years have passed, the Sun Moon Sect still stands tall in the martial arts world, contributing to the stability of the dynasty at all times.

Because of its close relationship with the dynasty, many people speculate that the Sun-Moon Sect is actually a hidden chess piece of the royal family buried in the martial arts world. If the country is in turmoil one day, this sect will be the last insurance to stabilize the dynasty.

No one in the world knows whether this rumor is true or not.

However, compared to the other eleven sects in the 'Five Mountains and Seven Sects', the Sun-Moon Sect is indeed the most low-key, least trouble-making, and most obedient to the emperor's orders.

The current leader of the Sun Moon Sect is Dongfang Bubai.

Not much information about this person is known in the martial arts world nowadays, because in the past decade or so, almost all of the Sun Moon Sect's diplomacy with the martial arts world was handled by Deputy Sect Leader Chang Woxing alone.

Even more than 20 years ago, few people had seen Dongfang Bubai himself take action.

But rumors in the martial arts world said that he had indeed defeated a number of opponents of the same class, namely the current deputy leader, the left and right emissaries, the four Dharma kings, and the five wanderers, before finally winning the title of "Son of God".

The inheritance of the Sun and Moon Sect has always been passed down from the 'leader' to the 'holy son' or 'holy daughter', and no one else is qualified. In other words, Dongfang Bubai is the previous 'holy son'.

The "Saint" of this session is the daughter of the deputy leader, Ren Yingying.

Previously, Ren Yingying had appeared at the signature conference of Hulong Villa, but unfortunately her performance was mediocre in the end, which attracted a lot of criticism.

You know, the Holy Son or the Holy Daughter have always been the most talented and the most skilled in martial arts among the same generation in the Sun and Moon Sect. But now even the Holy Daughter only has this much strength, so don't expect the martial arts of others to be that strong.

Therefore, since then, people in the martial arts world have been very pessimistic about the development of the Sun Moon Sect in the next thirty years.

Bai Xiaosheng, who worked for Jianghu Monthly, pointed out directly in the newspaper without any reservation that the Sun-Moon Sect would be facing the darkest low period in its history.

It was also because the Sun-Moon Sect suffered from negative publicity during this period that Dongfang Bubai had to come forward personally to restore the reputation of the Sun-Moon Sect.

After roughly understanding the whole story, Lu Ping felt deeply moved.

"According to his age, Dongfang Bubai is already over 40 years old. He is known as the 'fastest man in the world', which means he has probably practiced the Sunflower Manual."

The Sun Moon Sect's unique martial art is the Great Shift of the Universe.

"Under such circumstances, he still has to fight for the church..."

"It's not easy. It's really not easy!"

Since the opponent is a contestant of the "World's Fastest Racer", he will face off against him sooner or later. Lu Ping will not take it lightly, and he does not intend to fight an unprepared fight.

"It seems that before the other party comes to my door, I have to go to Lao Sun to get some information..."

But now there are more important things to do!
……

After two days of traveling, Lu Ping arrived at a small town near Tianxiahui.

As soon as he stepped into the town, Lu Ping felt an unusual atmosphere.

To put it simply, there are so many people in the martial arts world that they are almost half of the population of Fengyun City when the Fengyun Monument was opened.

"I thought there would be a lot of people paying attention to this, but I didn't expect there would be so many... Are they all here to watch Yao Yue fight Xiong Ba?"

Lu Ping felt that he had underestimated the enthusiasm of the martial arts world to watch the fights between sects and the duels between martial arts masters.

Following the flow of people in the town, Lu Ping came to a restaurant, intending to conduct some simple intelligence gathering here.

As soon as he entered the restaurant, Lu Ping knew he had come to the right place, because at that moment, there were several intelligence informants in the restaurant who were well-versed in the affairs of the underworld, talking and sharing the latest news with other diners.

"Tomorrow is the day of the final battle. Why are the two people who are going to face each other still nowhere to be seen?"

"Are you stupid? Xiongba is in Tianxiahui, so of course we can't see him! As for Yaoyue...if my guess is correct, she was here yesterday!"

"Is this true?! How did you guess that?"

"I saw with my own eyes the disciples of Yihua Palace roaming around the town..."

Lu Ping's eyes flashed, he found a place to sit down, and listened quietly to the latest news revealed by those people.

"Who do you think will win this duel?" "I don't know..."

"Don't you always call yourself a 'know-it-all'? Tell me what you think!"

"Thank you for the invitation, this kind of thing is really hard to say for sure!"

“Both Xiong Ba and Yao Yue are famous martial arts masters, and their level is far from ours. But in my heart, I hope that woman Yao Yue will win.”

"Ah? Why? Just because she's pretty?"

"How can they be so superficial?! Of course, even if Yihua Palace wins, they won't attack us. But if Tianxiahui wins, we, the lower class in the martial arts world, will definitely be destroyed by him again..."

"To be honest, I also hope that Tianxia will fall! It's time to divide up this big pie..."

The conversation between those evil Taoist characters was not shy about talking to other people in the restaurant, because no one knew who they were anyway.

And what they said about the final victory or defeat of this Jianghu duel actually represented the voices of most people in the Jianghu.

No one wants to see Tianxiahui continue to dominate the world!

"Speaking of which, what about Bu Jingyun? Didn't he say in the public pavilion that he wanted to take Xiong Ba's head?"

Then, those people shifted the topic to the most popular person besides Xiongba and Yaoyue.

"Bu Jingyun...he's here too. I saw him enter the town today with my own eyes!"

"I remember that he was the leader of Tianxiahui before? Why did he suddenly leave the gang some time ago, and now he says he wants to dominate the world? Oh, right... I heard that he was not the only one who left the gang at that time?"

"I know this. It is said that he and Xiongba have a blood feud. The story starts from when the Tianxiahui destroyed Huojiazhuang..."

It has been more than ten years since the destruction of Huo Family Village. With the passage of time, there are not many people in the martial arts world who still remember it. However, there is no wall that is impenetrable in the martial arts world. As long as someone wants to find it, they can always find clues about Huo Family Village and Bu Jingyun.

"So, Bu Jingyun has been enduring humiliation and waiting for the opportunity for revenge all these years?"

"Then has he already thoroughly studied Xiongba's martial arts?"

"Is it possible that Xiong Ba could really be killed by him?"

"It's hard to say... Xiongba is an old fox. It's not surprising that he would hold back when teaching martial arts!"

"And Bu Jingyun is actually here, so the 'Cloud Elimination Society' must have arrived as well..."

The identity of the founder of the Chuyun Society is unclear, but the leader is Aotian, the young master of Baijian Villa, and Duanlang, the son of the former Nanlin Sword Master.

Just as the man was about to continue speaking, several figures appeared at the door of the restaurant.

The demon Taoists who were talking excitedly suddenly felt a chill coming at them. After they looked up and saw the face of the person who came, they forced their original words back into their throats, and replaced them with a trembling voice.

"Step...step...Bu Jingyun?!"

As soon as the name came out, there were gasps in the restaurant.

"He is Bu Jingyun?!"

"So the sword on his back is the legendary sword?"

Lu Ping's gaze also fell on Bu Jingyun.

This is a cold man with a ramen-like haircut, an expressionless face, a uniquely shaped black sword on his shoulder, and a cloak hanging on his back.

Behind Bu Jingyun, there were three other people.

A man with long, elegant hair, a handsome face, gentle eyes, a smile on his face, and a big sword on his back.

If nothing unexpected happens, it’s Junior Sister Feng… Oh, no, it should be Junior Brother Feng.

In short, it’s Nie Feng.

A girl with ordinary appearance, whose eyes and mind are completely focused on Bu Jingyun.

The girl who appeared beside Bu Jingyun at this time...

Should it be Yu Chuchu?

The last person has a dignified appearance, is upright and awe-inspiring, wears white clothes and holds a sword.

The identity of this person is easy to guess. He is Wuming's apprentice, the current master of the Hero Sword, and also a contestant who registered to compete under the 'World's No. 1 Sword' on the Fengyun Monument, Jian Chen.
