~8 min read 1,545 words

"Senior Brother Zhao... are we, really going?"

At the foot of the mountain, a youth with a dark complexion, looking like an honest and simple farmer, scratched his head and said with a grimace: "You say... ah, I feel that, there really is no need for the two of us to come, right?"

In front of him, the middle-aged Senior Brother Zhao, who was climbing the mountain in silence, stopped his steps and looked down at the youth behind him from a high position.

His sturdy build, a full head taller than the youth, blocked the sunlight in front and cast a huge shadow behind him.

"..."

He did not speak either, just stared at the youth quietly like this.

Senior Brother Zhao said nothing, but it seemed he had said everything.

"Uh..."

Stared at for a long time by this extremely oppressive gaze, although the youth felt his heart pounding, once he thought about what the two of them were going to do next, he summoned his courage and tried hard to say: "Senior Brother, you must think clearly! This is that Lord's Daoist Field! That Lord!"

Gongyang Tie pointed at himself and his Senior Brother, took a rub-off contract from his bosom, and said with a look of wanting to cry but having no tears: "With just the two of us, what can we accomplish! Even if there is a legitimate reason, if that Lord does not want to see us, what can we two do?"

Zhao Sanzhuang was also silent for a moment looking at that child's play of a contract, and sighed softly: "... We have already arrived here, does Junior Brother Gongyang want to retreat?"

"Yes!"

Seeing that Zhao Sanzhuang was also somewhat hesitant, Gongyang Tie simply threw caution to the wind and shouted loudly with deep emotion: "Senior Brother! Let's run away! Let the two of us brothers flee to the ends of the earth! From now on, let's be a pair of desperate outlaws!"

He seemed afraid that Zhao Sanzhuang would refuse, and hurriedly promised in a very fast tone: "Senior Brother, don't worry! I am the legitimate son of the Gongyang Family of this generation; the sect cannot deal a lethal blow to us. At most, it will be a small punishment. Senior Brother, you will at most suffer a bit more, have a few legs broken, it won't really take your life..."

"Enough!"

Zhao Sanzhuang had a headache from his words and said angrily: "Shut your mouth for me immediately!"

Damn you... you really have no shame!

"This matter, Junior Brother, do not mention it again."

Zhao Sanzhuang's face was cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Whether He sees us or not is His business, but whether we two come or not is our business."

"Moreover, we have not just arrived at that Lord's Daoist Field, but have long been within His Daoist Field."

Gongyang Tie: Huh? What did you say?

Long since... ah?

Zhao Sanzhuang looked at the Gongyang Tie whose expression had changed abruptly and said meaningfully: "Every move we make has long since fallen into the eyes of that Lord."

Gongyang Tie:!!?

Damn it!

You old thing, you plotted against me!!!

Is your heart as black as your face?

And just when Gongyang Tie was about to risk his life against Zhao Sanzhuang, a sword light streaked down like lightning and rushed straight toward the two of them.

Whoosh—

Gongyang Tie could not care about anything else and was about to dodge, but was grabbed by Zhao Sanzhuang.

"Senior Brother!?"

"No need to panic."

Zhao Sanzhuang held down his restless Junior Brother with one hand, stood steadily on the spot, and watched the sword light respectfully.

This is that Lord's Daoist Field, how could they possibly be in danger!

Sure enough, the sword light changed halfway and finally turned into a tall girl whose eyes shone like cold blades.

The girl was full of coldness, her whole body was filled with towering Sword Qi, and her momentum was sharp and peerless, almost like a Long Sword stabbing before one's eyes.

Zhao Sanzhuang did not dare to look at the girl anymore and said respectfully: "Senior, we two brothers are here under the orders of the Sect Leader of the Sword Casting Hut, to come to..."

"You guys have so much trouble!"

But before he could finish speaking, the girl with sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes started cursing and spraying directly, glaring at Zhao Sanzhuang with puffed-up cheeks, pointing at his nose and scolding:

"Get lost!"

"Go back and make it clear to those old things! It is I who want to stay here! Understood?"

"Considering you are juniors, I won't haggle with you, get lost back immediately! Don't force me to take action!"

Gongyang Tie:???

Senior Brother had been pointed at and scolded for a long time, and Gongyang Tie was also somewhat confused. He stiffened his neck and said indignantly: "Who are you anyway!!?"

Although Gongyang Tie had just joked with Zhao Sanzhuang, that was only because the two were too familiar; he still respected from the heart this Senior Brother who had spent only thirty years walking from the lowest Outer Sect Disciple to a legacy disciple.

In this era of great contention, he is not the most outstanding, but he is a corner that cannot be ignored.

"Who am I!?"

"You all came here to find me? You don't know who I am!?"

The girl was furious, her silver teeth clenched, and she kept outputting: "I'm damn! Damn! I was just a little bit away from completely taking an Incarnation! Don't come here to cause trouble!"

Gongyang Tie still wanted to retort, but was pressed down by Zhao Sanzhuang again, and this time even his ability to speak was sealed.

"This Senior..."

And Zhao Sanzhuang looked at the irritable girl in front of him, thought of a possibility that the Sect Leader had mentioned before he set off, his mouth twitched, he lowered his head to bring his line of sight level with hers, and asked tentatively: "Could you be... the Sanlu Sword?"

"Idiot! Isn't this nonsense?"

The Sanlu Sword, who had taken the Incarnation of a girl, rolled her eyes and hummed unpleasantly: "If I'm not, could it be you?"

"You bunch of guys, all you know is how to forge iron, your brains are just like iron blocks!"

"I stay wherever I want to stay! It's none of your business!"

The Sanlu Sword was very angry.

She had finally managed to cling to a powerful backer, was enlightened by the Fox Immortal, and finally succeeded in taking an Incarnation. If she annoyed Him because of these guys, she would definitely give these stinky brats a painful lesson!

"Mmph, mmph!?"

Gongyang Tie mumbled wanting to speak, but Zhao Sanzhuang did not give him this chance at all, pressing his head down to bow and apologize together.

"Yes, yes, yes, it is all our fault."

"Yes, what Sect Ancestor says is correct..."

Zhao Sanzhuang smiled on the surface, but deep down he could not help but complain about the Sect Leader who had sent them here despite knowing such a situation would arise.

Too much!

You old fellow don't want to be scolded, but do you think we want to be!?

"I say, do you really not need to handle it?"

Shi Xue held a cup of fragrant tea, blew on it, looked down at the three people at the foot of the mountain, and smiled: "They at least sent a personal disciple, you should at least give him some face and meet him, right?"

"Whether I meet them or not makes no difference." Ren Yidao chuckled, fiddling with the ornaments on the table, and said indifferently: "Sect Leader Gongye is a smart man; he knows the Sanlu Sword has its own ideas and cannot be taken back with them, yet he doesn't want to appear too subservient, so he chose to let his disciple come and lose face instead."

"I don't really care; it all depends on what the Sanlu Sword itself thinks. I am easy either way."

Watching Ren Yidao's unrestrained and free-spirited manner, Shi Xue's heart skipped a beat, and she turned her head to look at the blue sky outside the window.

One day several years ago, the sky suddenly changed its appearance, and even during the day, one could see the shadows of stars.

Most people in the world do not know the truth behind this; Shi Xue does not know the specific details, but she is very clear that all the changes behind this are inseparable from the man before her.

He is like a great mountain that forever suppresses the heads of countless people... no, it should be said, a dome.

Although one does not notice it usually, as long as one looks up, one can always see that existence high above the Heaven that covers everything while simultaneously protecting everything.

In the past, he was the Heaven of the Earthly Realm.

And now.

He is the... Heaven of this world!

Just as Shi Xue was feeling emotional, Ren Yidao spoke with a smile:

"So, did you come to find me today specifically to say something?" (End of this chapter)
