Chapter 721: The gears of fate turn, Zhang Wuji and the Ming Sect

No sooner had the Blood Blade Envoy finished speaking than Zhang Wuji had already closed in.

A sword thrust into her throat; in an instant, a tiny hole appeared in her windpipe, and bright red blood bubbled out. Her pupils began to dilate, and her life force gradually ebbed away.

The Blood Blade Envoy turned her head with great difficulty to look at Zhang Wuji, murmuring:

"I didn't expect... you... really are... his son..."

Having said this, her eyes dimmed completely, and she lay on the ground, motionless.

Zhang Wuji stood stunned for a moment, then sighed.

"Sigh, what is going on here?"

At this moment, Yin Tianzheng approached from the side.

"Grandfather, I don't know either."

Zhang Wuji had long since learned from Su Hang that his grandfather was one of the protectors of the Ming Sect, so he was not surprised by Yin Tianzheng's appearance; instead, his admiration for Su Hang grew even deeper. He shook his head: "I only feel my whole body filled with power, and I seem to have vaguely touched upon the First Grade, just one step away."

"Oh?" Yin Tianzheng was surprised. He observed Zhang Wuji carefully: "Seeing you full of spirit and your internal energy condensed, you have indeed touched the barrier of the First Grade."

Zhang Wuji said: "It is a pity it is not yet stable, otherwise, I would not have had to expend so much effort in the battle with that Blood Blade Envoy just now."

"For a kid like you to break through to the First Grade so quickly is truly rare!" Yin Tianzheng praised, "Your father's aptitude for Wu Gong back then was even better than yours, but unfortunately, he died young. Your path is even more rugged and bumpy than his."

"What exactly happened to Father back then? I have asked Master, but he always avoids the important points and is unwilling to tell me!" Zhang Wuji said.

Yin Tianzheng said: "Hmph, how could your master say? After all, this matter happened on Mount Wudang!"

However, before Yin Tianzheng's voice had even faded.

"Swish!"

Yet at this very moment, a cold glint shot abruptly from behind, piercing straight through the corpse of the Blood Blade Envoy and shooting directly toward Zhang Wuji's cheek. ===== CHAPTER 723 =====
