Sword Roaring in the Sky

Chapter 178: The Disciple of Mu Lao, the Immortal of Youjian Villa
The Dalang Dynasty and the Northern Yan Royal Court have already decided on a battle for the throne.

The Dalang Dynasty put forward the monk Kongchan to preside over this matter.

The only person in Beiyan who is qualified to preside over this matter is Alanta.

This newly promoted Grandmaster was so powerful throughout the world because of his recent military achievements that even Southern Xia sent envoys to Dalang and Northern Yan to find out whether the two sides were going to go to war.
The entire Dalang Dynasty attached great importance to this matter, and the process of selecting candidates to participate in the battle for the tripod suddenly accelerated.

The list from Dalang had not been released yet, so Beiyan sent the list to Dalang first.

Among those who went to fight from Northern Yan, five were from Longzang Temple, two were from the Northern Yan royal court, two were from the army, and one was a direct disciple of Baoyin Fanzhe, a famous hermit from Northern Yan who had practiced hard for forty years on the Great Snow Mountain.

As soon as this list came out, people from various factions withdrew the files of their young disciples. This did reduce some of the workload for Monk Kongchan, but it also showed how shocking this list from Beiyan was.

Among the five people in the Xiantian realm, the one ranked first is not Giatana, nor is he a genius, but one of her nephews. However, this nephew is nearly ten years older than her and has practiced martial arts for ten years longer. When he was just promoted to the Xiantian realm, he came to Dalang to travel and offended several martial arts families. His most glorious achievement was that he escaped back to Beiyan while being hunted by three masters, and became famous in this battle.

This person's name is Hasigerile, and he is known as the Jade Buddha in the Northern Yan martial arts world!
Even the Dalang martial arts world acknowledges that this person is the best under the Grandmaster level.

The second person in line was naturally Giantana.

This little princess of Beiyan, the Golden Feather of the Great Sun on the grassland, is the disciple left behind by the previous abbot of Longzang Temple. As the number one on the list of geniuses, her weight is naturally unquestionable.

The other two Xiantian realm masters came from the Northern Yan royal court, and practiced the Northern Yan royal court’s secret thirty-two magical powers!
This magical skill is the only outstanding martial art in Beiyan that can be compared with the Ten Powers of Tathagata in Longzang Temple. It is divided into 32 secret forms of gods and demons, and only the nobles of the Beiyan royal court can practice it.

The last person in the Xiantian realm is the direct disciple of Baoyin Fanzhe, named: Fannajiaer.

The five candidates who are the first in the world are also the famous first-class warriors in Northern Yan. It is even said that some people forcibly locked their realm and did not break the innate realm in order to participate in this competition.

When Dalang and Beiyan were fighting openly and secretly for the list of names for the battle of the tripod, Sun Yanwan was forced to be involved in a battle.

Although his team was small, it still had over a hundred people. If they wanted to change their route, they had to arrange for supplies along the way. The documents sent by Dalang in advance set the route for the team and arranged the post stations along the way. If they wanted to change their route, there would always be some paperwork to exchange.

The result was that as soon as he sent out the documents, he was surrounded by a group of "rebels" and forced to hand over all his property and food.

Because of the education he received since childhood, Sun Yanwan was naturally sympathetic to the peasant uprising, but it was impossible for him to give away his property and food.

Looking at the hundreds of volunteers outside the post station, Sun Yanwan's eyes were attracted by a "woman" who was dressed in men's clothes, with a long sword hanging on her body, and was as beautiful as a peach or plum. He couldn't understand why a random village could produce a person in the innate realm?

He took a deep breath and shouted, "We are envoys welcoming the minister back to the capital. We are not local officials, nor are we here to exterminate you. Please move aside immediately and don't waste any time."

Lu Shuangfeng observed for a long time and whispered, "This woman's martial arts skills are not inferior to those of my senior sister."

Wu Zhi was shocked and said, "Then you can't beat him either?"

Among the three of them, only Lu Shuangfeng was promoted to the innate realm. If the opponent was really at the level of Shi Si, Lu Shuangfeng really couldn't beat him. Even if Sun Yanwan and Wu Zhi were added, they would at most be tied.

Yuchi Han secretly groaned in the back. He never thought that such a thing would happen during this mission.
Originally, he accepted the benefits from the Nan Meng family, and thought that this would help bridge the rift between the Nan Meng family and Sun Yanwan. Not only would he be able to please the Nan Meng family, but he would also be able to establish a good relationship with Sun Yanwan. Perhaps he would be able to rise to prominence, or even be treated differently by the Nan Meng family. However, he never expected that Sun Yanwan didn't want to pay any attention to the Nan Meng family at all.

As for the encounter with the rebellious army, he had originally intended to fight his way out, and only a few dozen Yulin Guards could do so. However, most of the Yulin Guards were captured alive by the "rebel army," and only he and a few others escaped. A "woman," dressed in men's clothing and carrying a long sword, as beautiful as a peach or plum, listened to Sun Yanwan's negotiations and slowly walked out, with a very elegant demeanor.

Sun Yanwan asked, "Sister, you must be from a prominent family. Why are you getting involved with these people?"

The "woman" smiled slightly and said in a very masculine voice: "I am a man!"

Sun Yanwan, Lu Shuangfeng, and Wu Zhi were all knocked over.

Lu Shuangfeng had racked her brains but couldn't figure out when such a "female" master appeared in Dalang. When she heard the other party claiming to be a man, a light bulb suddenly flashed in her mind and she shouted, "You are You Jianshan..."

The man smiled slightly and said, "If you tell me, I will have to kill you."

Lu Shuangfeng immediately shut up and embarrassed Sun Yanwan.

Sun Yanwan was incredibly clever. He thought to himself, "So he's from Youjian Villa? No wonder he's such a remarkable person." He guessed he was simply filled with righteous indignation, unable to bear the oppression of ordinary people, and had infiltrated the rebel army. He immediately said, "We don't have much food with us, but I'm willing to pay a large sum to purchase some and leave it thirty miles away in exchange for their withdrawal."

The man was slightly surprised and said, "Can you give an accurate number?"

Sun Yanwan said with emotion: "A gentleman's word is as powerful as a whip to a swift horse. Once it is spoken, there is no reason to regret it."

Even if these rebel armies robbed money, they could not use it to buy things, and no one would dare to sell them food. Sun Yanwan knew that this group of rebel armies must be short of food, and his method was the most likely to impress these people.

The man already felt a slight sense of agreement in his heart. He asked loudly, "I still don't know the identities and origins of the three of you."

Sun Yanwan took a deep breath and shouted, "Songyang Sect, Sun Yanwan!"

Just as Lu Shuangfeng was about to speak, the man was startled and interrupted him, shouting, "It turns out to be Sun Erlang, the Half-Poetry Clam!"

Sun Yanwan almost choked to death at this and shouted, "How can I have a nickname that's even halfway complete?"

The man laughed heartily and said, "Who told you to always write half a poem? It's like saying there's something on top but nothing on the bottom. It always leaves people feeling stuck, which is really annoying."

"Originally, it was rumored that you wrote the entire book for Master Gu in Fanlou, but unfortunately... this master was very stingy and never shared it with anyone, only occasionally revealing a sentence or two, which made people very anxious."

"Since it's a promise from Half a Poetry Clam, I believe it."

The man waved his hand, and the rebel army retreated like a tide, very orderly, leaving the Yulin guards who had just been captured alive behind.

Sun Yanwan was puzzled. He pulled Lu Shuangfeng and Wu Zhi to a secluded place and asked, "Who is this?"

Lu Shuangfeng whispered, "The disciple of the immortal Mu from Youjian Villa..."
