Chapter 296
Seeing the scene before them, the crowd was also taken by surprise, clicking their tongues in wonder.
This old man was so full of spirit!
Even more spirited than the vast majority of the young people present!
However, the old man paid no heed to the crowd's exclamations, walking straight forward until he reached Su Hang.
Upon seeing Su Hang, before he even spoke, the old man gave a gentle smile and said:
"I am Feng Qingyang of the Huashan Sect, greetings to Mr. Su..."
As soon as the old man finished speaking, the Half-Moon Inn immediately erupted in a wave of shock.
"What... Feng Qingyang... could this old man be Feng Qingyang of the Huashan Sect's Sword Sect?"
"Unbelievable... to think that even Feng Qingyang of the Sword Sect has come!"
"If that's the case, it seems Lady Ning truly listened to Su Hang's words and brought Feng Qingyang back..."
"That's good! The Huashan Sect was originally famous for its swordsmanship; only Yue Buqun was obsessed with the Qi Sect or whatever—is practicing swordsmanship properly really that hard?"
"Mr. Su already explained the Huashan Sect's affairs to Lady Ning in detail before; I wonder what Feng Qingyang has come to Snow Moon City for this time? Is he going to challenge Mr. Su?"
In the eyes of the crowd, a figure like Feng Qingyang clearly belonged to the influential figures of the previous era, just like Li Qiushui.
But now that several decades had passed, the Jianghu was long since no longer the Jianghu of those days.
No matter how powerful Feng Qingyang was, he had merely obtained the inheritance of Dugu Jian, and thus achieved his swordsmanship.
If one were to truly judge by strength, Feng Qingyang might not necessarily be better than Dugu Jian.
Therefore, when Feng Qingyang truly appeared, the impact he brought to the crowd was extremely limited.
At this moment, seeing the old man with the demeanor of an immortal before them,
Wang Yuyan could not help but be slightly startled.
She had never expected that even the senior Feng of the Huashan Sect would come to this Snow Moon City!
One must know, Feng Qingyang, like the Xiaoyao Sect, was a figure who had vanished from the Jianghu for several decades!
Over these decades, no matter what major events occurred in the Jianghu, Feng Qingyang had never appeared.
Even when the Huashan Sect was besieged by the entire Mo Sect and subsequently targeted by the Wu Lin, he had never stepped forward.
"This... to think that Senior Feng has actually come..."
"This is a massive event!"
Wang Yuyan knew Feng Qingyang's status all too well.
In short, if Dugu Jian was the undefeated Sword Demon of the Great Song Jianghu, then Feng Qingyang was the undefeated Sword God of the Great Ming Jianghu.
Unlike Xie Xiaofeng, Ximen Chuixue, and Ye Gucheng, Feng Qingyang had long since retired from the Jianghu, and his tracks had been hard to find over these years.
And Wang Yuyan, as a doctor of martial arts, naturally knew that Feng Qingyang's attainments in swordsmanship were extremely high.
It was precisely because of this that when Wang Yuyan learned that the person who had arrived was the legendary Feng Qingyang, her heart could not help but skip a beat.
Suddenly, the Sword Demon, Sword God, Sword Hero, Sword Buddha, and Sword Saint of the Great Ming Jianghu had all come at once.
Except for the Sword Emperor Xie Xiaofeng!
On the other side.
Lianxing could not help but be slightly stunned upon seeing Feng Qingyang before her.
She naturally knew of this grandmaster of the sword,
and after hearing the past events of the Huashan Sect's Sword Sect and Qi Sect, Lianxing could not help but feel a sense of admiration for the old man before her.
Back then, Feng Qingyang's Wu Gong must not have been weak; otherwise, the Qi Sect would not have tried every possible means to trick him away from Huashan.
The Sword Sect with Feng Qingyang and the Sword Sect without him were completely different!
But after learning that he had been betrayed and the Sword Sect had suffered a crushing defeat,
Feng Qingyang did not fly into a rage out of shame like an ordinary Jianghu person, nor did he draw his sword against them.
In the end, he chose to respect reality and live in seclusion, preventing the Huashan Sect from falling into further internal strife.
He avoided sect slaughter with an attitude that was truly admirable.
What was this? This was the true demeanor of a grandmaster!
Based on this point alone, he was already worthy of the world's respect.
Thinking of this, Lianxing paused slightly and guessed to herself:
"I wonder what Senior Feng Qingyang has come for this time..."
"Could it be that he still has some confusion in his heart?"
In Lianxing's view, a master of the world beyond like Feng Qingyang should have lived with clarity long ago.
But this time, he went against the norm and came to have his fortune told.
"There must be something fishy about this."
Lianxing muttered to herself.
On the other side.
Bai Yu Jing, also a swordsman, raised an eyebrow upon seeing the old man, feeling a bit more interest.
Although Bai Yu Jing and Feng Qingyang looked completely different now, in reality, they were figures from the same period!
It was just that Feng Qingyang's main area of activity was the Jianghu, while Bai Yu Jing had also dabbled in court affairs besides the Jianghu.
The two of them, one was the representative figure of the Huashan Sword Sect, and the other was the Great Dragon Head of the Qinglong Society!
It could be said that the two had taken completely different paths, and the final results were also drastically different!
Feng Qingyang's sword entered the divine realm, ignoring worldly affairs, and he ended up carefree and at ease.
Bai Yu Jing was similarly extraordinary, but he became the Great Dragon Head of the Qinglong Society, secretly controlling the Jianghu.
Precisely because of this, Bai Yu Jing was quite interested in the Feng Qingyang before him.
He paused, smiled slightly, and said:
"I wonder what this old man is asking Mr. Su to calculate..."
"At this age, what else is there to calculate?"
Bai Yu Jing thought for a while but could not come up with any reason.
He then turned his body and focused his gaze on Su Hang once again.
Since he couldn't guess, he might as well watch and see!
And at this very moment,
Su Hang looked at the white-robed old man before him, and a very familiar feeling welled up in his heart.
It had to be said, the Feng Qingyang in the current comprehensive martial arts world was very similar to the masters in the television shows Su Hang had watched in his previous life.
Dressed in pure white, even his beard and hair were white.
Apart from this, he exuded a sword intent similar to Dugu Jian's from head to toe.
Perhaps because Feng Qingyang himself was from the Huashan Sword Sect, the aura he exuded was slightly different from Dugu Jian's.
If Dugu Jian was the Sword Demon who had achieved the pinnacle of the sword path, then the Feng Qingyang before him was more like a Sword Immortal who had mastered the sword path.
Although the sword techniques the two learned were similar, the demeanor they displayed was completely different.
For Su Hang, Feng Qingyang was a figure as familiar as could be.
As the greatest grandmaster of swordsmanship in the Huashan Sect over the last two hundred years, the later Feng Qingyang, after fully comprehending the Dugu Nine Swords, had entered the Land Deity realm in his cultivation.
It could be said that within the Great Ming Jianghu, if Dongfang Bubai were to encounter the later Feng Qingyang, she would have no way to win.
He had practiced the sword since childhood and had high talent, becoming a famous young swordsman in the Jianghu in his teens.
Especially after obtaining the Dugu Nine Swords left behind by Dugu Jian on Mount Zhongnan, Feng Qingyang's swordsmanship progressed by leaps and bounds.
Just like the crowd, Su Hang could not guess what Feng Qingyang wanted to calculate at this moment.
After all, he was already over seventy years old.
Thinking of this, Su Hang also responded with a smile:
"I wonder what Senior Feng has come from afar to ask about?"
Su Hang said "ask," not "calculate," because before this, he had already explained everything about the Huashan Sect clearly.
According to Ning Zhongze's character and habits, she should have already told Feng Qingyang these things.
Feng Qingyang smiled upon hearing this, stroked his white beard, and said with a calm smile:
"I have long heard from my niece that Mr. Su is young and promising, a rare young talent in the Jianghu; seeing you now, it is indeed so!"
Feng Qingyang looked at Su Hang before him and said with a chuckle.
At the same time, he cursed Yue Buqun a few times in his heart, calling him no good.
