After the Tomb's Treasures: The Ladies' Recent Affairs, the Sword Alliance's Search, and Hidden Rumors!
Bai Caiwei's eyes lit up when she spoke of the Candle Cult. She was naturally quiet, loved reading poetry and books, and possessed a quick and meticulous mind. She held an important position in the "Jade City Bai Clan." fortuitous opportunity chance, she learned of the once-secret "Candle Cult."
It is also known by many names such as "Demon Sect", "Divine Sect", and "Evil Sect". It descends the sun and moon and suppresses all sects. Wherever its demonic power passes, all things wither. Profound Dao Mountain is a righteous sect with a long history, but when the Candle Cult is rampaging and causing trouble, it can only retreat.
She learned that the current Yanla Flower Cage Sect was once a branch of the Candle Cult. She was very curious about this sect, but she also knew that the resurgence of the Candle Sect was probably not a good thing. However, from the few words in ancient books, she learned that the Candle Cult had a glorious past and that when the Candle Cult came out, it shocked all directions and four seas. Such fierce flames, terrifying power, and invincible spirit... she couldn't help but feel a longing.
The four girls drank and chatted. Instead, they imitated the Jianghu style, eating soy sauce meat, pounding broad beans, tasting fragrant wine, and pretending to be a gathering of wealthy people. Han Niannian said, "But I heard that Hualongmen is not like an ordinary sect. It has no fixed door. The altar is just a place for communication, and its disciples often wander around to commit crimes. The water altar was destroyed, and although the flower thieves stopped for a while, there were many flower thieves without altars who soon committed crimes everywhere or took refuge in other altars."
Bai Caiwei said, "Therefore, I told Yao Nizi to be careful. The Jade Maiden's destruction of the Water Altar was indeed a great achievement, but it also turned that Flower Thief into a homeless wasp, stinging and biting people indiscriminately."
Huang Axia laughed and said, "I'm curious, if Yao Nizi is captured, what kind of expression will that pretty face have?"
Yao Yin said proudly, "That's perfect. I'm just looking for a place to use my martial arts skills. If they come looking for me, I'll kill them one by one and show off my skills." She held her sword and waved it in the air, pretending to be a fierce and menacing figure.
Huang Axia said, "Their strength lies in their insidious schemes and formations. If you are careless and fall into their trap, it will be too late to regret it." Han Niannian laughed and said, "Exactly. I have heard that the Flower Cage Sect's binding methods are quite unique. Once they bind you, it is very difficult to break free. No matter how strong you are or how high your cultivation is, they will have various ways to subdue you."
Bai Caiwei said, "If this is true, I know of one called the ' Hundred Flowers in Full Bloom Technique.' The ropes used in the Flower Cage Sect are made from the roots and stems of flowers and plants. When a person is bound by this method, the more they struggle, the more the roots and stems come alive, gradually growing petals. Hence the name 'Hundred Flowers Blooming.' I've heard that the combination of people and flowers is quite exquisite."
Huang Axia, Han Niannian, and Yao Yin all spat lightly and cursed, "These Flower Thief, they don't take the right path. They only think about these things."
Li Xian tended the stove, simmering the medicinal soup, thinking, "There are so many more tricks out there, but unfortunately I was in such a hurry to learn martial arts that I only learned the basics. Although... these skills are rather unrefined, they are still the essence of the Flower Cage Sect. It's always good to have more skills." He held a wooden fan and gently fanned the stove.
Bai Caiwei and her companions were so engrossed in their conversation that they completely forgot about Li Xian and his two companions waiting nearby. Bai Caiwei even said, "Do you really think that they'll just leave it at that after binding their hands and feet?"
Yao Yin blushed and asked, "Then... what else do they want?" Bai Caiwei said, "If they encounter experienced villains, their rope-walking skills will be even more exquisite." She raised her finger and pointed to Yao Yin's ribs, saying, "First, entangle them here, then move along this path..."
The descriptions were vivid and detailed, highlighting the vital points and areas requiring close protection in martial arts. Yao Yin, after only a brief moment of contemplation, blushed deeply, thinking, "Such Flower Thief is truly despicable. How can a respectable woman like me, captured like this, possibly save face?"
Feeling a dry mouth, he drank several mouthfuls of wine, causing goosebumps to rise on the back of his neck. Han Niannian couldn't help but say, "This 'Hundred Flowers in Full Bloom Technique is... quite thoughtful. In the future, when I travel the world and enemies fall into my hands, I will use this method to capture them."
Bai Caiwei laughed, "This is just one of the techniques. You girls are so ignorant; there's so much more you don't know. There are also Heaven-and-Earth Reversal Technique Earth-Shattering Crosswise Waist-Cleaving Technique, the Dream-Returning Heart-Turning Technique, the Nine-Nines Unmoving Technique..."
Yao Yin, Huang Axia, and Han Niannian felt both disgusted and curious. In reality, while it was true that martial arts circles were places where people roamed the land, seeking revenge and living a solitary life, there were also times when situations were complicated and it was inconvenient to kill their opponents immediately. In such cases, they needed to use special methods to subdue their enemies.
Then there is the martial art of "pressure point striking". Pressure point striking is powerful, but not necessarily reliable. Therefore, there are methods of capture and restraint. The forces to which Yao Yin, Huang Axia and Han Niannian belong all have their own methods of capture and restraint. When you count them carefully, there are many different kinds. They subdue the enemy according to the time, place, situation and circumstances, making them unable to move and obedient to their orders.
The three women hadn't paid any attention before, but now, during a casual chat in their chambers, the topic came up, and they all became intrigued and curious.
They all asked, "What is the ' Heaven-and-Earth Reversal Technique '?"
Bai Caiwei touched the wine with her finger, drawing a line in the air. The wine hovered in mid-air, transforming into a human figure. Her martial arts technique was quite remarkable. She said, "In this life, one should stand with feet on the ground and head to the sky, which is to be upright and indomitable. Conversely, if one's feet are up and head is down, it is to be upside down. Hence the elegant name, which is actually the method of hanging upside down."
With a sweep of her slender hand, the drunkard was left upside down. She said, "This method causes blood to stagnate in the three jiaos, Qi and Blood to flow in reverse. It is further enhanced by the binding of Flower Cord, which bind the hands and feet and lock acupoints, combined with special medicinal substances. There was once a martial artist of the Third Realm whose martial arts, abilities, and methods were all restrained, rendering him unable to move and completely at their mercy." The three women exchanged glances, each thinking that if they were in this situation, they might be able to escape this predicament. The three women were of similar cultivation and talent, but their experiences and martial arts styles were different. Yao Yin was confident that she could solve it and breathed a slight sigh of relief. Huang Axia, however, felt extremely troubled. If she were trapped in this situation, her chances of survival would be slim. Han Niannian was filled with fear and despair. She could not use any of her methods and believed that she would definitely not be able to escape.
Bai Caiwei, intrigued, said, "Let's talk about the ' Drawn Bow Shooting Heaven Technique again." Han Niannian said, "Could it be..." She seemed to know but not quite, ultimately unable to figure it out, so she didn't say more. Bai Caiwei said, "It's one kind, a method where only the waist touches the ground. The person needs to bend their knees, put their hands behind their back, and lie horizontally on the ground. It's similar to the ' Heaven-and-Earth Reversal Technique, but with the hands and feet facing upwards, the face facing downwards, the whole body arched backwards like a bow and arrow, the wrists and ankles connected like the arrow string. This method prevents the Gushing Spring Acupoint from drawing power, making the body feel like a floating bubble, unable to exert any strength."
The three women were greatly surprised, each stroking their chins as they pondered how to break the deadlock. Li Xian couldn't help but think to himself, "They're quite strange; instead of discussing romance and poetry, they're only talking about how to get out of this predicament."
After chatting for quite some time, Han Niannian suddenly asked, "Sister Caiwei, how do you know all this so clearly?"
Bai Caiwei coughed lightly and said, "The Flower Cage Sect is such a formidable enemy, how can we be careless? Knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to victory in every battle. I have a woman from my clan who was recently brought back to Jade City. I learned these methods from her."
Having learned this, Yao Yin dared not underestimate the Flower Cage Sect, and said, "I have taken your words to heart, and I will keep an eye on this matter. However, in a while, my senior brothers and sisters from the Nature Sect will come to Jade City to make purchases."
Yao Yin said, "I will introduce you and help you when the time comes. When I return to the sect, I will accompany you. I think any Flower Thief will avoid me and dare not provoke me. Besides, these thieves are ultimately petty and cannot amount to much."
Bai Caiwei said, "That's true. If we were to tremble with fear when we travel the world because of a small sect like the Flower Cage Sect, we would lose our chivalrous spirit. Although we come from Jade City, we are still men and women of the martial world when we look at the world."
As Bai Caiwei spoke, though she was a woman, her boldness and spirit were no less than those of a chivalrous hero. The women clinked glasses and drank heartily; though it wasn't strong liquor, they still enjoyed themselves immensely.
Huang Axia asked, "I'm curious, what happened to those women who were captured by the Flower Cage Sect?" Bai Caiwei blushed and replied, "The Water Altar was broken, rescuing many women in distress. Some were from Jade City and have been sent back. I've had contact with them; they are all beautiful women, and their status and martial arts skills are not weak either. It's a pity they were held back by this bandit sect. But with diligent cultivation, they can gradually recover."
"The villains have been caught and severely punished, which is truly gratifying!"
Huang Axia suddenly remembered something and laughed, "Speaking of the Flower Cage Sect, I'm reminded of another legend in the martial arts world. Have you heard of the alliance between the Mount Yue Sword Sect, the Lake-Mountain Sword Sect, the Jiushan Sword Sect, the Mount Yang Sword Sect, and the Lishan Sword Sect?"
Yao Yin nodded and said, "I have heard. Our Nature Sect is located in the Guanlong Circuit; Tingxi Western Prefecture is far away, but our elders once cooperated with the Mount Yue Sword Sect and Mount Yang Sword Sect in a demon-slaying campaign. Our elders greatly admire the character of the two sword sects. Upon learning of the five-sect alliance, they knew it was a joyous occasion for the world and for the righteous path, so they wrote congratulatory letters and had their disciples deliver them to each sect. I am not very talented, but I am highly regarded by the elders and have considerable experience. I am also a respectable figure in the sect, so I personally carried the congratulatory letter and led four disciples to deliver it to Jiu Mountain and Li Mountain. Along the way, we took the opportunity to train, slay demons, and punish thieves. It was quite an adventure!"
Han Niannian winked and said, "Oh, oh, oh, I'm not very talented, but you're quite the face of the sect, aren't you, girl?" Yao Yin blushed and glared back angrily, but it was the truth.
Bai Caiwei smiled and said, "Have you met any outstanding talents from the sword sect? What are they like? If they are good, why not introduce them to Jade City?"
Yao Yin said, "The Sword Sect is founded on the mountains and its essence is the sword, so its traditions are naturally very upright. Don't be fooled by the fact that our mountain gate isn't as prosperous Jade City; it stands majestically in the mountains, exuding a chilling Sword Qi that can't be found anywhere else. There are certainly many young talents here, and when we sent our congratulatory letter, the Sword Sect was hosting a banquet, with the Bronze Body Sect and the Golden Luo Sect also offering their congratulations. We stayed for a few days, just to take a quick look around, have a little sparring, and then we left. Although we saw many young talents, we didn't have the chance to help you sluts flirt with them."
Yao Yin asked, "Have you heard anything strange or unusual? Ah Xia, please continue." Huang Axia asked, "Since you've been to the Sword Sect, did you inquire about the alliance, such as the Flower Thief causing Worry-Relieving Tower and secretly capturing the women of the Sword Sect?"
Yao Yin said, "The elder didn't tell me the details. I only found out later that so many things happened during the Five-Mountain Sword Alliance alliance. We were almost violated by the Flower Thief, but it's been resolved, so there's nothing more to say. The Flower Thief is treacherous, but the elders and disciples of the Sword Sect united as one to resolve the dangerous situation, which is a story worth telling."
Bai Caiwei said, "I know that the alliance matter has been quite complicated." Han Niannian nodded in agreement.
Huang Axia said, "I have a friend who is a disciple of the Mount Yue Sword Sect. Some time ago, she came to Jade City to exchange goods with her master. I hosted a banquet for her and talked about the Sword Alliance. What my friend said was completely different from the rumors."
The three women asked curiously, "Oh?" Huang Axia said, "According to rumors, a disciple named ' Hua Wucuo ' captured the women of the Sword Sect. If the Sword Sect hadn't come to their rescue in time, they would probably have been violated. This Five-Mountain Sword Alliance is about to fall apart. I wonder when it will be able to re-establish the alliance."
The three women said, "That's right." Huang Axia said, "But the truth is quite the opposite. That scoundrel Hua Wucuo is not only not a bad person, but actually the greatest benefactor of the Five-Mountain Sword Alliance!"
Bai Caiwei, Yao Yin, and Han Niannian were all shocked, their eyes widening as they pressed, "Is that so? Are you kidding me? How could this be possible?"
Huang Axia said, "When I first heard about this, I was just like you, but after carefully listening to the reasons, I suddenly understood and realized the intricacies involved." Bai Caiwei pressed, "Then tell me quickly."
Huang Axia's eyes darted around, and she opened her mouth as if to speak, but suddenly picked up the wine in her glass and sipped it slowly. After a moment, she put down the wine glass, opened her mouth as if to speak, but then immediately picked up a broad bean to savor it.
The three women's brows twitched. Yao Yin gritted her teeth and said, "Sister Caiwei, do you know how to use those various methods of capture and binding? She's asking for trouble, deliberately keeping us in suspense and whetting our appetites. If we don't teach her a good lesson, I doubt she'll tell us the truth." Bai Caiwei nodded and said, "Of course I know, but I don't have any ropes."
Han Niannian said, "You've forgotten that I'm one of the Thirty-Two True Guards. Although I don't have the Flower Cord, I do have the Jade Silk Rope, which is specially used to capture and bind villains. It should be more than enough to replace the Flower Cord. I'll use my authority to secretly send her to ' Evil-Quelling Island ' for a few days."
Bai Caiwei said, "Evil-Quelling Island has been quite chaotic lately, and it's a shame to waste such a delicate beauty." The three women echoed each other, seemingly ready to carry out their words. Huang Axia, seeing that her three close friends were serious, realized she was no match for them and would be at their mercy. Startled, she dared not play along and quickly said, "Wait, wait, I'll tell you the truth."
The three women were in high spirits, thinking in unison, "Let's use this delaying tactic and let her explain in detail. Once she's fully explained, we can discard her after she's served her purpose. It'll be good to let her try it out first. If she's captured later, she'll have some experience and will thank us profusely." They exchanged a secret glance, their smiles slightly enigmatic. Although Huang Axia had a bad feeling, she still spoke the truth, "The Five-Mountain Sword Alliance chose Flying Dragon City as its alliance site. This city is located in the west, and although it's not as good Jade City, it has its own unique characteristics. The city lord He Wentian, is also the master of the Worry-Relieving Tower."
Bai Caiwei said, "I've heard of this building. It's said that one floor can cure three thousand sorrows, and it's quite large. The mechanisms inside seem to have been built with the help of craftsmen from Jade City. It took decades to complete."
Yao Yin said, "Even in Jade City, this building is quite remarkable." Huang Axia said, "Indeed. The Five-Mountain Sword Alliance formed an alliance here, relying on the reputation of the Worry-Relieving Tower. They invited He Wentian, the Lord of Flying Dragon City and the Master of the Worry-Relieving Tower, to witness it. However... the Master of the Worry-Relieving Tower went to great lengths to build this Worry-Relieving Tower, but he actually has a hidden purpose: to contend for supremacy!"
Han Niannian scoffed, "How can a mere Worry-Relieving Tower possibly dominate?" Huang Axia replied, "Beneath Worry-Relieving Tower lies a vast tomb, containing undead soldiers. If He Wentian can utilize these soldiers, he will possess the power to contend for supremacy. Furthermore, by leveraging Worry-Relieving Tower and managing it effectively, he could carve out a territory and establish his own kingdom—this is not mere speculation."
Li Xian listened with great interest to the four women's conversation, finding it quite fascinating. He had personally experienced and been deeply involved in the matters others were discussing. He thought to himself, "Although I, Li Xian, am unknown, my journey through this world has not been without leaving a trace. I never imagined that these things would be so talked about. This world, in its vastness and breadth, truly is immense; a territory spanning tens of thousands of miles, even for a single Great Martial Dynasty, would require a very long time to traverse. Yet, in its narrowness, it can also be remarkably small and confined at times."
Yao Yin said, "That's true. But... what kind of tomb is it, and why does it contain corpse soldiers?"
Huang Axia smiled and said, "We'll talk about this later. Just listen to me." At this point, Fang Ming, Ding Heilang, and the others also became interested and listened attentively.
Huang Axia said, "But the method for activating these corpse soldiers requires the yin blood of women. For decades, He Wentian has been using clandestine methods to collect the yin blood of women. Now that the Sword Alliance has arrived, the Lake-Mountain Sword Sect is full of women, and women from other sword sects also make up 40% or 50% of the force... These women are all martial artists, and with their yin blood nourishing the corpse soldiers, they will undoubtedly be even more powerful."
Therefore, He Wentian devised a way to have the best of both worlds: he used the Worry-Relieving Tower to imprison the women and then framed the Flower Cage Sect.
Han Niannian said, "No. The women were later rescued; this matter cannot be hidden." Huang Axia said, "The reason will be revealed later. He Wentian's methods are formidable and meticulous. The Five-Mountain Sword Alliance may not be as powerful as rumored; they were completely fooled and trusted He Wentian implicitly, never doubting him. Meanwhile, the women were imprisoned within the stone walls of the tomb, and the elders had their collarbones pierced and were given muscle-relaxing drugs; there was absolutely no possibility of escape."
Yao Yin said, "Such a desperate situation is enough to make one despair." Bai Caiwei said, "Does He Wentian intend to imprison these women and nourish their corpses with their blood every day?"
Huang Axia said, "That's right! Just then, the Flower Thief Hua Wucuo appeared!" She continued, "This young man infiltrated the enemy's lair, defied the Third Realm, and bravely rescued the women. He then displayed his intelligence and wisdom, leading the women to join forces with the Five-Mountain Sword Alliance, thus saving the situation and exposing He Wentian's conspiracy." Yao Yin pondered, "Although it's the Flower Cage Sect, this situation is not without heroic acts. It shows that there are always exceptions; it's not impossible for heroes to emerge from the Flower Cage Sect."
Huang Axia said, "According to my friend, this young man is extremely handsome. It's hard to describe or imagine him unless you see him with your own eyes. So, even though he's Flower Thief, I'd like to meet him."
Li Xian lightly fanned himself with his wooden fan, thinking, "I am right here. But if I reveal my true strength, they might still arrest this Flower Thief. I have already died once; let's leave the matter of the Flower Cage Sect behind."
Han Niannian said, "Then why are the rumors like that?" Huang Axia said, "Han Nizi, you're one of the Thirty-Two True Guards, how can you not use your brain?"
Han Niannian thought to herself, "You stinking hussy, you'll get what's coming to you later." Huang Axia said, "At that time, the Five-Mountain Sword Alliance went through many twists and turns before finally capturing He Wentian. However, the situation in Flying Dragon City was complicated. If the news were announced directly, it would cause unpredictable turmoil in Flying Dragon City. To ensure the safety of the Sword Alliance, the rumor of the Flower Thief was used instead."
Bai Caiwei said, "So that's how it is. There's such a complicated story behind it. Ah Xia, you didn't mention why there are corpse soldiers in the tomb."
Huang Axia said, "After the Five-Mountain Sword Alliance formed an alliance, they returned to their sects with their disciples. But this matter is not completely over. You are wondering, aren't the Lake Mountain, Sun Mountain, Jiu Mountain, Li Mountain, and Mount Yue Sword Sect also curious and confused? That's why they immediately tried to investigate."
"They consulted ancient texts and gathered knowledge from various schools of thought, spending nearly a month gradually uncovering clues. Finally, they learned that this was the tomb of Dugu Boyuan, the descendant of a small kingdom called ' You Kingdom '!"
Bai Caiwei, Yao Yin, and Han Niannian said, "Dugu Boyuan?" They had never heard this name before. Huang Axia said, "It's normal not to know. I only heard this name for the first time. I only managed to find a few words about it after consulting ancient books. This You Kingdom is located in a remote area and has a small territory. Dugu Boyuan of King Dugu and was determined to restore his kingdom. Therefore, his tomb contains corpses and soldiers."
Bai Caiwei, Yao Yin, and Han Niannian all said, "I see, then that makes perfect sense."
Huang Axia sneered, "Do you think this matter ends here?" Bai Caiwei and Yao Yin asked in astonishment, "It's not over yet?"
Li Xian was also taken aback, and listened intently. Huang Axia said, "The most exciting part is just beginning. Although You Kingdom is remote, it hides a great treasure, the ' Imperial Jade Seal.' Inside that Imperial Jade Seal are nine Jade Dragon, capable of curing all the incurable diseases in the world. Don't forget, the Five-Mountain Sword Alliance was able to form thanks in no small part to the encouragement of the elders of the major sword sects."
"The old man from the Lishan Sword Sect, a powerful figure who once ranked high on the Earth List but later withdrew voluntarily, is currently suffering from an incurable illness. Upon hearing the news from Jade Dragon, he may have a chance to recover. Given this, what will the Five-Mountain Sword Alliance do?"
Bai Caiwei said, "Of course we'll go find this item." Huang Axia slammed her hand on the stone table, making a crisp sound as the dishes on it clattered. She then said, "That's right! This matter is of great importance. The Five-Mountain Sword Alliance will send people from both factions to explore that tomb again."
"The You Kingdom operates under a system of 'dual rulers, one in the light and one in the dark,' and this tomb also follows this system. Previously, neither He Wentian, who had occupied this place for a long time, nor the Five-Mountain Sword Alliance, which had entered the tomb, could discern this fact, and thus they were unable to discover many key points for a long time."
"This time, with thorough preparations, we explored the tomb again. Although we made some progress, it was still minimal. This is because Dugu Boyuan's feng shui arrangements were exquisite. Although the Five-Mountain Sword Alliance has feng shui experts, they cannot compare to Dugu Boyuan. Thus... we returned empty-handed."
Bai Caiwei, Yao Yin, and the others thought, "This is probably the end."
Huang Axia said, "At this time... the Star-Picking Bureau of the Great Martial Dynasty sent people here. The Star-Picking Bureau did not know about Dugu Boyuan and the affairs of the You Kingdom, but they were knowledgeable about the changes of stars and feng shui. Only by combining the two sides could they barely explore the tomb."
Han Niannian asked, "Have you found the Jade Dragon?"
Huang Axia sneered, "It's not about whether or not to search for the Jade Dragon, but... this is astonishing. A woman has already explored the depths of the tomb. That woman's abilities have surprised the Star-Picking Bureau; her ability to manipulate wind Water Manipulation is extremely refined."
"Moreover, it is said that the woman, on her first visit to this tomb, effortlessly deciphered its origins, the Bright-and-Dark Twin Monarch System, and the re-emergence of the stone heart. The Five-Mountain Sword Alliance, after searching through ancient books for over a month, barely managed to find any clues, but none of them matched her single glance."
"The further they went, the more alarmed they became. Finally, they found the Dark Lord, and sure enough, the Jade Dragon had been completely taken!"
Bai Caiwei said, "Shouldn't this matter end here?"
Huang Axia sneered again, "How can this end? That Old Sword Elder's life is hanging by a thread, and Jade Dragon is a great hope. How can we just give up like this? Besides, that woman... the elders of the Five-Mountain Sword Alliance responsible for the handover and alliance have met her and fought with her."
"Naturally, we will find a way to search for it!"
Han Niannian said, "Xia, are you perhaps telling a story? This matter is so complicated!"
Huang Axia said, "But that's not all. I spent a lot of effort to get the rest of the secrets out of that friend. My friend is one of the very few people who experienced and witnessed the whole thing."
Li Xian brought over the medicinal soup and asked, "What's next?"
Huang Axia was taken aback, then laughed, "You're interested too?" Li Xian replied, "Of course." He found a seat and sat down.
Fang Ming, Ding Heilang, and the others approached. Yao Yin asked, "Have you found that woman?"
Huang Axia nodded slightly. Han Niannian asked, "Do you want the Jade Dragon?" Huang Axia looked at him meaningfully.
He was thoroughly enjoying the feeling of having everyone's lives in his grasp. Yao Yin and the others exchanged silent glances, all choosing to tolerate it for now, secretly plotting their next move.
Han Niannian said in agreement, "Miss Huang, please stop beating around the bush and tell me quickly."
Huang Axia dragged her feet, tormenting Yao Yin, Bai Caiwei, and Han Niannian until they were exhausted, both annoyed and helpless, and could only plead and beg. Huang Axia was thoroughly enjoying herself when she finally said seriously, "What happened next is even more astonishing. It's never been heard of in the martial world. Even if you go to the Five-Mountain Sword Alliance to inquire, you'll only be kicked out of the sect. Only my family, Axia, can hear about it. So listen carefully."
