Chapter 277 Seeking Plum Blossoms Under the Moon in Sword City, Dim Lights Rekindle Old Feelings

The bright moon hangs high tonight, making it a good night for traveling at night.

Mr. Hong used his lightness skill to quickly descend the mountain and soon entered the City of Ten Thousand Swords at the foot of the mountain.

The city of Wanjian was brightly lit and bustling with activity, no less so than during the day.

You can often see richly dressed young men on the streets.

Most of these people were young disciples and their relatives from the major families of the Sword Sect.

Mr. Hong walked quickly, as if he were searching for something.

Finally, on a pillar at the entrance of an inn, he saw a plum blossom mark, about the size of a fingertip, that looked like it had been newly carved.

Mr. Hong entered the inn.

The waiter hurried over, "Welcome to our humble establishment, sir! Are you here for a meal or to stay the night?"

Mr. Hong waved his hand, "Looking for someone."

Mr. Hong went up to the second floor of the inn and saw the plum blossom mark on the door of a guest room.

Mr. Hong was about to open the door.

As a result, the door creaked open from the inside.

A snow-white hand reached out from the doorway, grabbed Mr. Hong's collar, and pulled him into the room.

After entering, Mr. Hong straightened his collar and said in a doting tone, "You Ruo, you're still so proactive."

Standing opposite Mr. Hong was a cold and beautiful woman dressed in black. This woman was Leng Youruo, the master of Leng Yu, the woman in white from Lengyue Pavilion.

The woman in black rolled her eyes at Mr. Hong. "Screw you. If you're not going to stay, get lost. I hate the sight of you."

The woman in black seemed to suddenly realize something, looked at Mr. Hong's legs, and then took two steps forward and grabbed Mr. Hong's hand.

"Brother Yuan, your leg, is your leg all better?"

Before Mr. Hong could answer, the woman in black threw herself into his arms, pressed her face against his chest, and sobbed softly.

Mr. Hong smiled and gently stroked the woman in black's slender back.

"I'm not completely healed yet; the cold poison is still there, but it doesn't stop me from coming to see you."

The woman in black wiped away her tears and pushed Mr. Hong away, saying, "You don't have many days left to live, what are you doing here looking for me?"

"You haven't even come to see us, mother and daughter, all these years."

Mr. Hong stepped forward and took the black-clad woman's hands in his own. "You Ruo, I'm sorry to you and your daughter."

I'm caught in the middle of this mess, and I'm afraid of implicating you all, which is why I haven't dared to acknowledge you.

In recent years, the Sword Sect has been embroiled in constant infighting, and I have also been afflicted with the cold poison, making my situation rather difficult.

"When I break through to the Grandmaster level, eradicate the cancer of the Sword Sect, and allow all the people of the world to live a good life, I will definitely hold a grand wedding for you."

Upon hearing this, the woman in black's eyes revealed a look of longing, and her expression softened.

"I heard from my master that the Grandmaster-level expert's spirit travels through the void, and his mind is no longer on the Divine Continent."

Once you reach the Grandmaster level, you'll probably have already forgotten about us, mother and daughter.

Besides, you know that your ambition to rule the world may never be fulfilled in this lifetime.

To put it another way, how would you handle the peak competition during a festival?

"At that time, you will face an attack from at least two peak-stage Innate Realm experts; even survival will be difficult."

Mr. Hong walked to the window, put his hands behind his back, and looked out the window.

"Some things have to be done by someone, even if I can't finish them in my lifetime."

My disciples will continue to do it, and one day it will be achieved.

Breaking through to the Grandmaster level is incredibly difficult; it's not that easy.

I'm not that easy to die.

I won't say much more; let's see who prevails in the Peak Master Competition.

The woman in black said, "Speaking of your disciple makes me angry. That brat almost killed our daughter. You should talk to that brat and be more polite to our daughter in the future."

Haha, Mr. Hong chuckled twice, "You mean Xiao Feng, right? Okay, I'll say hello to him."

Xiao Feng's talent is too extraordinary, and he is also very hardworking.

"If our daughter makes enemies with Xiaofeng, she'll definitely suffer the consequences."

The woman in black sat on the bed and said, "Your young disciple is a rare and talented man. Could you please arrange for him to marry our daughter?"

Mr. Hong waved his hand, "Don't even think about it. Xiao Feng already has a family, and his wife has given birth to five children for him."

The woman in black hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let her take Yu'er as a concubine."

Mr. Hong sat down by the bed. “Then you should forget about it. My little disciple is just as devoted as I am. He will never find another woman in his life.”

After Mr. Hong finished speaking, he pulled the woman in black into his arms and gave her a princess carry.

The woman in black gazed at Mr. Hong with eyes full of tenderness.

"Are you telling the truth? You'll only ever love me in this lifetime?"

Mr. Hong leaned over and kissed the woman in black on the cheek. "Of course it's true. When have I ever lied to you?"

Mr. Hong rolled onto the bed, and the woman in black casually untied the curtain beside the bed.

……

Mr. Hong's home.

Zhu Linghua, Wu Jinlei, Hong Batian, and Ji Yunfeng each presented Lin Feng with the incomplete copies of the Innate True Skill they had found, as if they were treasures.

Zhu Linghua and Wu Jinlei each took two books, while Hong Batian and Ji Yunfeng each took only one.

Wu Jinlei said, "Junior brother, that's all the incomplete copies of the Innate True Skill I have. I brought you all the ones I had collected last time, and this time I spent a lot of money to exchange them for two more from other people."

Other senior students also said they couldn't get any more.

Lin Feng could understand that even a fragment of the Innate True Skill was still an Innate True Skill, and it wouldn't be as easy to obtain as other martial arts.

"Thank you all for your hard work, fellow disciples. This is enough for me to study for a long time."

Wu Jinlei rubbed his hands together and said, "Then junior brother, hurry up and teach us the Innate True Skill. Senior brother is getting impatient."

Lin Feng glanced at the sky. "No rush, let's eat first. I'll teach you after we've eaten and drunk our fill."

Lin Feng glanced around and asked Yue'e, "Senior Sister, where is Master?"

Yue'e said, "Master left a note saying that he went out to compose poems with an old friend and might not be back tonight, so we don't need to wait for him."

"Oh, then let's eat."

Wu Jinlei was unusually diligent today; he actually went to the kitchen to help Yue'e serve dishes.

Zhu Linghua said with a smile, "Look how anxious the second brother is. He wants to finish his meal quickly so he can learn martial arts from his junior brother."

Hong Batian said with a grin, "Then let's eat slowly, hehe."

The group chatted casually while preparing tables, chairs, and benches.

Lin Feng was given the seat of honor and sat in Mr. Hong's place.

His senior classmates kept putting food on his plate, and the meal was quite harmonious.

After finishing their meal, everyone took out paper and pens again.

Lin Feng orally explained the Yin-Yang Five Elements Sword Technique, and his senior brothers and sisters copied it down.

After finishing the cooking, Lin Feng answered their questions.

Looking at the manual with some disbelief, Zhu Linghua asked, "Junior Brother, this Yin Yang Five Elements Sword Technique is subtle, profound, and unfathomable. Did you really create it?"

Wu Jinlei said, "How could it be false? Junior Brother is the reincarnation of the God of War, a super genius who appears only once every five hundred years in the Divine Continent."

"Junior brother, from now on, your second senior brother will be relying on you for matters of cultivation."

Zhu Linghua said, "With Junior Brother here, our lineage will dominate the Sword Sect sooner or later."

Ji Yunfeng: "When I first saw my junior brother in Qinghe County, I felt that he was no ordinary person."

"Traveling ten thousand miles a day" is not even enough to describe Junior Brother's cultivation speed. Junior Brother probably has higher goals and doesn't want to become an ordinary Innate Realm cultivator like us. Otherwise, Junior Brother should have already broken through to the Innate Realm.

Lin Feng was often praised, and too lazy to refute it, he just nodded in agreement.

Lin Feng led everyone in practicing swordsmanship for another night.

They didn't stop until dawn.

Zhu Linhua said, "Junior Brother still has a martial arts competition later, so let's stop practicing here."

"Rest for an hour first, and once Master returns, we'll each lead our forces to the Blood Battle Arena."

The fellow disciples sat down cross-legged on the spot, waiting for Mr. Hong to return.
