Chapter 251

"How is it possible... you must know that the top scholar Huang of that time was at his peak upon debut, just by reading the 100,000 Daoist Canons, he entered the Grandmaster realm!"

"In other words, this old man could fight a Grandmaster at thirty?"

"Unbelievable... I never thought this old man was so powerful when he was young!"

Hearing this, Wang Yuyan could not help but be surprised: "This old senior's swordsmanship is indeed powerful, actually being able to seriously injure Senior Huang Chang!"

"You must know that Senior Huang Chang is a martial arts genius rarely seen in a hundred years..."

Wang Yuyan looked at the unremarkable old man before her, and couldn't help but feel more curious.

Seeing this,

Su Hang said again:

"After this battle, the old gentleman finally saw the true face of the Jianghu,"

"a place of fame, profit, and deceit."

"From then on, you were disheartened by the Jianghu and no longer keen on Jianghu affairs, but only keen on dueling experts, pursuing the ultimate sword Dao in your heart!"

Dugu Qiubai heard this and sighed:

"Indeed."

"After this battle, I lost interest in the Jianghu."

"After all, no matter how high my martial arts were, no matter how brilliant my swordsmanship was, I was ultimately used by others and became an accomplice."

"If I hadn't injured that top scholar Huang back then, the Jianghu crowd would never have dared to swarm him, let alone slaughter his entire family."

"It can be said that I am guilty."

Su Hang nodded and continued:

"After you were no longer keen on the Jianghu, you spent all your time researching sword Dao,"

"from then on, you no longer interfered in any right or wrong, focusing only on dueling experts."

"Only experts could possibly temper your sword Dao and achieve the supreme realm in your heart."

"Therefore, you gave up the blue steel sword and switched to the crape myrtle soft sword."

"This also symbolized that your edge was restrained, and your sword momentum was no longer sharp."

"After thirty, you pursued the agility and composure of sword Dao."

"Thus, not long after putting down the blue steel sword, you switched to the crape myrtle soft sword."

"In Heishuo, you heard of an expert with extraordinary martial arts,"

"so you went to challenge that expert with great interest."

"You fought for thirty rounds, and that expert's iron spear was broken by your crape myrtle soft sword, and that expert was also seriously injured."

"This battle was inevitably disappointing; you felt that the expert was overrated."

"But later you discovered that the expert you seriously injured was none other than General Yue Fei!"

"In this way, you felt even more guilty in your heart, so you threw this crape myrtle soft sword into the valley and abandoned the sword forever."

"That year, you were thirty-six."

Hearing this, another flash of fire passed through Dugu Qiubai's eyes.

He could not help but become excited.

"Indeed!"

"If I had known he was that anti-Jin patriot, I would never have had that battle later!"

"This is the second mistake I have made in my life!"

The crowd at the Half-Moon Inn was suddenly shocked upon hearing this.

The Jianghu onlookers completely did not expect that the old man before them was the one who seriously injured General Yue back then.

Back then, when the Jin people went south, the Central Plains Wu Lin rose up to resist,

and even people like Wang Chongyang and Zhang Sanfeng joined in.

But if we talk about resisting the Jin, the leader was undoubtedly General Yue.

No one would have expected that Dugu Qiubai back then would be so crazy that he didn't even spare General Yue in order to find experts to duel.

Seeing this,

Su Hang did not stop, but continued:

"Having injured a patriot by mistake, you were full of remorse."

"After throwing the crape myrtle soft sword into the valley, you intended to completely withdraw from the Jianghu and give up sword Dao."

"So you found a place in Mount Zhongnan to live in seclusion."

"During this time, you tried your best to forget sword Dao, forget the past, and wanted to start over."

"But in the end, you found that you couldn't do it."

"By this time, sword Dao had become a part of your life; walking, sitting, lying, everything was the sword."

"Even in your sleep, between half-awake and half-asleep, your mind was filled with the sword."

"Only then did you surprisingly discover that in the few years you abandoned the sword, your sword Dao had not become rusty, but had gained new insights."

"You increasingly felt that sharpness or agility in sword arts were undesirable; the true sword Dao should be 'heavy sword without edge'!"

"Under the heavy sword, there is pressure, and there is also vitality!"

"In this way, you wouldn't accidentally injure Jianghu heroes!"

"So you spent another three years finding a piece of meteorite iron, and after forging it completely, you polished a heavy sword weighing eighty catties!"

"This heavy sword was extremely heavy, almost exceeding the limit of your strength; in order to use this heavy sword well, you placed yourself under a violent waterfall every day, washing and training."

"Three years later, your power increased greatly, and you used this heavy sword with ease."

"Only then did you surprisingly discover that you were still not willing to be lonely."

"Although you could withdraw from the Jianghu, an unwilling heart always wanted to duel with top experts."

"And just at this time, you heard that in the Great Song imperial palace, there was a Sunflower Eunuch."

7863480157

"Although this eunuch was old, his martial arts were extremely remarkable."

"And this eunuch expert was none other than the peerless master who wrote the Sunflower Manual back then!"

"After hearing this news, you didn't hesitate and went to the imperial palace, wanting to challenge this eunuch expert."

"You fought the Sunflower Eunuch for 500 rounds, and finally, with the momentum of the heavy sword, you won by a narrow margin."

"This is the third realm of your sword Dao!"

Hearing this, Dugu Qiubai nodded and sighed:

"What Mr. Su said is completely accurate."

"Back then, I dueled that Sunflower Eunuch on the imperial city,"

"this person's Qi Gong was quite remarkable, and it was impossible for ordinary people to get within half a foot."

"It's just that thinking about it now, winning against this peerless expert back then was really a bit of luck."

"If we really talk about it, this heavy sword helped me a lot."

"If it weren't for this heavy sword, I would have died under his flying needles long ago..."

Having said this, Dugu Qiubai could not help but laugh softly.

But Dongfang Bubai on the other side didn't feel very beautiful upon hearing this.

"Sunflower Eunuch?"

"Does this old guy mean that he defeated the Sunflower Eunuch back then?"

"How could..."

Dongfang Bubai could no longer remain calm.

Although she still had an extremely lazy appearance, the expression on her face was not relaxed at all.

Although she still looked incomparably charming, at this moment, a killing intent had already faintly appeared on Dongfang Bubai's face.

In her eyes, only the Sunflower Manual could be considered the authentic martial arts of the world.

Compared to Shaolin or martial arts, only the Sunflower Manual was the way of heaven and earth.

For so many years, it was precisely by relying on this Sunflower Manual that she could enter the hall and sit firmly as the leader of the Sun Moon Holy Sect.

Otherwise, the Dongfang Bubai of today would just be a small hall master under the former leader Ren Woxing.

It can be said that in Dongfang Bubai's eyes, the Sunflower Eunuch was no different from her ancestor.

Now hearing that her ancestor was defeated, and by such a shabby old man, how could Dongfang Bubai feel good?
