Wu Family Sword Tomb

The Wu Family has a martial arts master in charge, giving them a transcendent status in the martial arts world.

Their Lineage lived on a mountain called Sword Tomb.

The Wu Family has practiced martial arts for generations, and all of them use swords. After they die, their precious swords are returned and left in the Wu Family. The younger generation does the same. Therefore, this place is called the Sword Tomb, and the entire Wu Family lives in this Sword Tomb.

The Wu Family family rarely interacted with outsiders.

The swordsmen of the Wu Family are also very arrogant. People from the martial arts world often come to challenge the Wu Family Wu Family, but few can defeat them. Most are defeated at the first hurdle of the mountain gate.

Those who lose to the Wu Family swordsmen will, according to the agreement, become Sword Slave in the Wu Family.

Therefore, fewer and fewer people have come to the Wu Family in recent years.

Upon hearing this rumor, Chen Wang couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

"The head of the Wu Family is a master strategist. If all the people who come are killed, the Wu Family will make too many enemies in the martial arts world. This way, we can avoid damaging too much harmony and also prevent a constant stream of people from challenging the Wu Family."

There were very few people around Wu Family Sword Tomb, and no one guarded the mountain or welcomed guests.

Looking at the barren and desolate mountain, Chen Wang couldn't help but be somewhat taken aback, "This is the Wu Family Sword Tomb?"

Ming He bit her lip and remained silent.

Chen Wang turned his head and said, "What's wrong? No, are you going to keep following me?"

Ming He said, "You really want to come to the Wu Family? You know the Wu Family's rules, right?"

Chen Wang said, "I know. If I lose, I will have to become a sword guardian in the Wu Family."

Ming He shook her head. "Who told you about the sword guardian? They're called Sword Slave. They have to serve the Wu Family as slaves and are not allowed to leave the Wu Family Sword Tomb Wu Family Sword Tomb. Do you know how many martial arts masters have fallen here? How many famous figures in the martial arts world are now slaves here!"

Chen Wang shook his head. "I don't know. I only know that I'm coming to the Wu Family to obtain the Martial Saint's Secret Manual and learn this ultimate skill."

Ming He exclaimed in surprise, "So direct?"

Chen Wang smiled and said, "Yes, that's how direct it is."

Ming He bit her lip lightly.

"You're a really strange person!"

Chen Wang smiled and said, "You didn't say that at Tongfu Inn."

Ming He blushed immediately, glared at him, and then stopped talking.

Along the way, she and Chen Wang traveled together. As a lone man and woman, and both being young talents in the martial arts world, they were naturally attracted to each other.

At first, Ming He thought Chen Wang was a clueless martial arts fanatic and would even tease him with her words.

But who knew that Chen Wang was actually a seasoned expert in this field, Ming He was no match for him.

She was taken in by Chen Wang Chen Wang the very first night they traveled together.

Her two long legs were incredibly alluring, like two large white pythons, and her whole person resembled a female leopard, making her very seductive.

Her type is somewhat like Winter in the Yan Zhi of winter, except Yan Zhi is more mature and doesn't have as much sharpness as Ming He.

Ming He is younger, and her body is full of vitality.

Especially last night, at the Tongfu Inn, the two of them fought until dawn.

After being captured, Ming He, a wild woman, actually became quite docile.

After all, Chen Wang stayed with her until her eyes rolled back and she passed out last night before he stopped.

That's why Ming He reacted so shyly when Chen Wang mentioned Tongfu Inn.

The two then headed up the mountain.

After traveling for many days, both of them looked travel-worn, but their eyes became even brighter.

Ming He was still full of wildness, dressed in a tight-fitting outfit, standing upright with her abdomen taut and her clothes clinging tightly to her body, which further highlighted her captivating vitality.

This is not the kind of physical allure that a wealthy heiress sitting at home could possess.

They climbed the mountain, and only when they reached the halfway point did they see a boy coming down.

The young man had his hands tucked into his sleeves, making him look quite delicate.

Unlike the desolate and barren landscape of the entire mountain, he seemed like a noble young master from a wealthy family. Upon seeing Chen Wang Ming He his companion, he politely asked, "May I ask what brings you two to the Wu Family Sword Tomb?"

After Chen Wang and Ming He introduced themselves, the young man remained calm and said softly, "So you are guests from Little Martial Rankings."

Clearly, although the Wu Family Sword Tomb is located in a remote corner, it is very well-informed.

They were naturally aware of the Little Martial Rankings set up by the imperial court.

Chen Wang said, "I came up the mountain to seek the martial arts manual and explore the mysteries of martial arts."

The young man smiled and said, "So Young Master Chen has come to have a sword duel. Please follow me."

"So direct?"

Chen Wang raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself, "Is that what I meant?"

However, he did not refuse. If he came up the mountain and did not show some strength, he would not gain the attention of others.

Chen Wang followed the young man in blue until they reached a pavilion.

This pavilion is called the Sword Asking Pavilion. There are three men in front of it, one thin, one fat, and one short.

The young man in blue smiled and said, "Since you are a guest of the Little Martial Rankings, please choose one to fight, Young Master Chen. If you win, I will take you to continue climbing the mountain."

Chen Wang asked, "What if we fail?"

The young man in blue said, "If you lose, you must join my Wu Family as agreed. If you do not obey my orders, you will never be allowed to leave the family for the rest of your life."

Chen Wang nodded and looked at the three people.

These three people looked ordinary, but just by standing there, their aura was astonishing, and they were definitely not ordinary people.

Ming He wasn't there to compete in swordsmanship, but she couldn't help but feel nervous.

The three men stood there, their bodies radiating Sword Qi. Goosebumps rose on her skin, as if a Sword Qi would slit her throat at any moment!

When Ming He got a good look at the thin man, she exclaimed in surprise, "West Mountain Gate, Gu Hengbo!"

She looked at the somewhat thin man in the middle with a look of utter disbelief.

Chen Wang asked, "Is this person very famous?"

Ming He asked in surprise, "You haven't heard of his name?"

Chen Wang shook his head. "I come from a small town and have only learned a few tricks of the Zhuang Family."

Ming He was already used to Chen Wang's way of speaking, but she was still somewhat shocked. "Gu Hengbo, the most dazzling genius of West Mountain Gate twenty years ago, had already reached the Innate Realm at the age of twenty-four and defeated four great masters in succession. However, he disappeared at the height of his fame. West Mountain Gate mobilized many people to search for him, and this matter became an unsolved mystery in the martial arts world. I never expected... that he would actually be in the Wu Family!"

"My master has been searching for him for seven years, how could I not know this person?"

Chen Wang was somewhat surprised.

He thought the challenge he would encounter upon arriving at the mountain would be a piece of cake, but he never expected it to be such a famous figure in the martial arts world, who was a top master in the martial arts world twenty years ago.

Twenty years have passed, what level has he reached now? The somewhat thin man had a sheathless longsword casually tucked into his waistband, a sight that Chen Wang found somewhat familiar.

Ning Haiping ranked tenth on Little Martial Rankings, was dressed like this.

What is his relationship with Xiao Ning?

Chen Wang had drunk with Ning Haiping. He was very sociable, and they quickly became sworn brothers and friends.

The moment this thought crossed his mind, the man said calmly, "A boxwood bow, a wind-piercing arrow, and your master's surname is Yelü?"

Ming He nodded, stepped forward, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "Indeed, this junior greets Senior Gu!"

Gu Hengbo shook his head.

"Gu Hengbo is dead once he enters the Sword Tomb. Now I am called Seventeen."

Ming He was stunned.

She was unaware of the internal workings of the Wu Family Sword Tomb.

Ming He's master lived on the border for many years. Later, he traveled the world and had some feelings for Gu Hengbo. However, Gu Hengbo suddenly disappeared, and the woman was heartbroken. So she left the border and lived in the grassland desert.

Ming He smiled and said, "Master would be very happy if he knew where you are, senior."

Gu Hengbo shook his head. "Don't tell her."

After saying that, he stopped talking and returned to his previous calm and composed state.

The exceptionally handsome young man smiled and said, "Young Master Chen, what do you say? Which one will you choose as your opponent for the sword duel?"

Chen Wang blinked.

Can I choose you?

The young man laughed and said, "Young Master Chen is too kind. Young Master Chen is the number one Little Martial Rankings expert. How could I possibly be worthy to fight with Young Master Chen?"

Chen Wang said, "Is it against the rules?"

The young man in blue nodded and said, "That's against the rules."

Chen Wang felt somewhat regretful.

"It's a pity... I can't pick on the weak."

The young man in blue remained expressionless. "Please choose someone, young master."

Chen Wang pointed to one.

"I've never seen anyone so fat before, so I'll choose him."

The young man in blue smiled and said, "Young master has excellent taste."

Upon hearing this, the fat man took a step forward. He was extremely burly, and although he was fat, he was the kind of fat that was robust.

Chen Wang could see that his sleeves were rolled up, revealing some bulging arm muscles. The sword at his waist was about the same size as an ordinary person's sword, not particularly large.

However, given his physique, even wielding a warhammer and giant axe would be quite ordinary; he possesses the physique of an unparalleled warrior.

The fat man cupped his hands in a gesture of respect, displaying the demeanor of a grandmaster, and said in a deep voice, "Please."

On a distant mountaintop stood a young man, with a beautiful woman beside him.

The young man said with a smile, "Auntie, this person's taste is neither good nor bad; he chose Zhu Yun."

The young man looked nonchalant, and the sword at his waist was quite ordinary, like the cheapest kind of iron sword.

This beautiful woman was quite ordinary-looking. Moreover, she had a sword scar on her face, which marred her otherwise ordinary appearance and made her look somewhat fierce.

The Wu Family is full of experts, and each generation has a sword master. The sword master of this generation is this carefree young man named Wu Ying.

This person is extremely talented and has a high aptitude for martial arts. He is highly valued by his great-grandfather, the Martial Saint, who is also the head of the Wu Family.

As for the son and grandson of that martial saint, he didn't take them seriously at all; they were just a bunch of good-for-nothings.

Although he called these people a bunch of good-for-nothings, they were all renowned masters in the martial arts world, ridiculously strong.

The woman next to him is his aunt.

There are quite a few women in the Wu Family who practice swordsmanship, but very few have reached her level.

The woman shook her head. "Three years ago, Zhu Yun fought Gu Hengbo with swords. Guess what happened?"

The young man named Wu Ying blinked.

"Gu Hengbo won?"

After all, Gu Hengbo was the most outstanding prodigy of West Mountain Gate back then, and the future sect leader.

It is astonishing that such a person could serve as Sword Slave in the Wu Family Sword Tomb.

The woman shook her head. "Gu Hengbo only withstood three sword strikes from him."

"What?" Wu Ying exclaimed.

The woman smiled and said, "The heroes of the Moon Gazing Pavilion saw off their guests, while the White Robe Young Master traveled westward."

"This matter has been widely discussed for a long time. He came for the unique skills of the Wu Family Sword Tomb, so some people in his family deliberately made things difficult for him."

"I just didn't expect him to have such good taste, drawing Zhu Yun directly."

Wu Ying blinked, his eyes gleaming with interest.

Gu Hengbo only withstood three sword strikes from Zhu Yun; at his age, he probably wouldn't have survived even one.

"Unfortunately, there are no heroes in this era, so even a nobody can become famous. This Little Martial Rankings should have been my top spot, but my great-grandfather wouldn't let me go down the mountain to earn it!"

The woman said calmly:

"Didn't you say you wanted to be number one in Martial Rankings?"

"Top five, top five, I was just kidding. There are so many heroes in the world, I would be satisfied with just being in the top five in Martial Rankings."

"Isn't it good to first go through the Little Martial Rankings and get first place?"

"Better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix."

The woman smiled gently, "You've got guts!"

Wu Ying said, "It is said that this Chen Wang possesses the Great Sun True Qi, which is extremely domineering and even innate demons cannot match him."

The woman said calmly, "If whoever has the stronger True Qi is the most powerful, then we don't need to practice martial arts; we can just practice True Qi."

Wu Ying smiled and said, "That makes sense."

The Wu Family swordsmanship is known for its ability to overcome the strong with the weak, and it also has many techniques for breaking through True Qi with the sword.

Moreover, the Sword Qi energy is sharp and has a special ability to restrain demons, which is why the Wu Family has been able to stand tall in the martial arts world.

Every year, some swordsmen from the Wu Family would go out to slay demons and monsters; otherwise, they would be considered heretics in the Chu Dynasty and would not be tolerated by the general trend.

Therefore, the Wu Family can avoid attaching themselves to the imperial court and maintain a detached attitude, thus becoming a sacred place for martial arts in the Jianghu.

Looking enviously at the iron sword at Zhu Yun's waist, Wu Ying said, "I've coveted his Dragon Sparrow Sword for so long, but I never expected it to fall into his hands!"

The woman said, "The previous generation of swordsmiths spent ten whole days forging this sword. This Mystic Iron Sword is extremely heavy, and only someone with his innate superhuman strength can wield it. You should give up on it."

Wu Ying sighed.

The two of them were nonchalant, not taking Chen Wang's victory or defeat seriously at all, or rather, in their eyes, Chen Wang was not even worth considering.

"There will be another young man in the Sword Tomb. But that's fine, otherwise it would be too boring with all these old men."

Both of them looked down the mountain.

Chen Wang's previous understanding was wrong. Not everyone who came to challenge the Wu Family was qualified to become Sword Slave after losing. Those who could become Sword Slave were all extraordinary people. Some with limited skills died on the spot. The Wu Family has never been afraid of making enemies.

At this moment, Zhu Yun's sword Sword Qi moved spontaneously without wind.

Chen Wang found it interesting. He was also a swordsman and had even cultivated the Great River Sword Intent. He was very interested in the fat man's Sword Qi.

This person's Sword Qi contained a special killing intent, which was extremely sharp. If any evil thing were to encounter it, it would cause serious injury. Chen Wang knew this all too well.

As soon as Zhu Yun took a step forward, the man's aura completely changed. Originally, he didn't seem dangerous at all; he was just a smiling, dignified, middle-aged, chubby uncle.

But as soon as he took a step out, the wind around him seemed to freeze.

With a flash of light, the Mystic Iron Sword at his waist was drawn.

This sword is incredibly heavy, and the Wu Family's sword-making techniques are even more ancient than their sword-training skills.

The fact that the previous generation of swordsmiths spent ten days and ten nights forging this sword in their old age shows its extraordinary nature.

Now, his current master, Zhu Yun, strikes with the power of thunder, Man and Sword as One becoming one, and slashes at Chen Wang! At this moment, there is no stormy momentum, but the Sword Qi is very condensed, like a white line slashing towards Chen Wang's brow.

Chen Wang felt the Mystic Iron Sword growing larger and larger in his eyes.

Then he unleashed a punch! If Zhu Yun's sword was thunder, then Chen Wang's fist was the sun!

As the sun rises, everything melts away.

Boom!

A deafening roar! Accompanied by a blinding flash of light, even Gu Hengbo and the Sword Slave beside him closed their eyes tightly.

The Young Sword Genius and the woman on the hilltop also squinted, unable to see anything clearly.

When the bright light faded, only the young master remained standing there, without having moved an inch.

Zhu Yun, whose sword could slay innate demons, was sent flying backward, crashing into and shattering a Sword Asking Pavilion.

They are trapped in the ruins, their fate unknown!

Everyone was shocked!
