"Greetings, both of you!" Ling Yi greeted the two with a bright smile.

"Snort!"

The two men merely snorted coldly, not even glancing at Ling Yi, and brushed past Ling Yi.

Ling Yi simply smiled, not paying much attention. After all, these two had contributed some strength to him; what was wrong with letting out a cold snort?

With his bizarre aura, the entire Jianghu will probably look down on him in the future.

" Zhang Cuishan should be back soon, the curtain is about to rise!"

Ling Yi murmured to himself, then used his Qinggong to head straight southeast.

Northwest of Xiangyang, at the river ferry crossing, a sailboat bearing the Wudang Sect banner slowly sails across the river.

On the sailboat were Yu Lianzhou, Zhang Cuishan, Yin Susu, and fourteen-year-old Zhang Wuji.

"The fact that Xihuazi and Li Tianheng Escape means that my husband's return can no longer be kept a secret," Yin Susu said worriedly, standing at the bow of the boat and holding Zhang Cuishan's arm.

"Hmph, what is there to worry about? Our Wudang Sect has never been afraid of anyone." Yu Lianzhou glanced at Yin Susu and said with extreme disdain.

He wasn't entirely satisfied with Yin Susu, who was once a notorious female demon who stirred up trouble in the Jianghu and was known for wiping out entire families at the drop of a hat.

Yu Lianzhou disliked his sister-in-law no matter how he looked at her.

But since his fifth brother, Zhang Cuishan, had just returned, he didn't want to put Zhang Cuishan in a difficult position, so he didn't say much.

But their attitude was far from good.

Yin Susu's concern was not only about the chaos that Zhang Cuishan's return would cause in the Jianghu world, but also about Yu Daiyan. Back then, it was through her schemes that Yu Daiyan was paralyzed, his bones were shattered, and he was almost crippled.

She had no idea how to face Yu Daiyan, the Wudang Sect members, or even how Zhang Cuishan would view her after learning about this. Her mind was in turmoil, filled with conflicting emotions.

"Mother, what is that?"

Just then, Zhang Wuji tugged at Yin Susu's sleeve and pointed to a Little Hei on the river surface, asking a question.

The group looked in the direction Zhang Wuji was pointing, and their pupils immediately contracted.

That was a person, a person running wildly on the river.

All of them were experts; they could walk on water, but they couldn't do it for long.

At most, they could only lightly touch the water's surface with their Internal Energy and skim across it; they could never run across the water like this person.

Several people could even hear the sound of the person's feet stepping on the water.

"No, it's not that this person has any Qinggong. Fifth brother, look at the feet of that person."

Only then did everyone notice that the river surface beneath the man's feet would automatically freeze into a thin layer of ice each time he landed. It was by using the support of this thin ice that the man was able to Keep Running on the river.

"Be careful, this person might also be here for your sworn brother." Yu Lianzhou said, drawing his longsword and assuming a defensive stance.

Zhang Cuishan and Yin Susu were the same, only Zhang Wuji hid behind the three of them, curiously watching the young man who had already approached.

For some reason, Zhang Wuji inexplicably felt that this person was very annoying.

Not only Zhang Wuji, but also Yu Lianzhou and the others.

" Wuji is on the ship, we can't let this person board!" Yin Susu shouted, and immediately Throwing knives.

Yu Lianzhou and Zhang Cuishan also thought it made sense.

Zhang Cuishan shouted, "My friend, the boat Xiaofeng is strong. Please turn back. If you have any advice, we can discuss it after we get ashore."

"Haha, Zhang Cuishan, today I, Ling Yi, have come for the Dragon-Slaying Saber. Tell me Xie Xun's whereabouts, and I'll spare your lives. Otherwise, you won't be able to return to the Wudang Sect today, Zhang Sanfeng will be burying his son."

" Ling Yi Primordial Thunderbolt Hand?" Zhang Cuishan's pupils contracted slightly. Was this the enemy his sworn brother had been so worried about? He hadn't expected him to be so young. Just as the Legend said, this man was extremely good at maintaining his youthful appearance.

If Ling Yi knew Zhang Cuishan's thoughts, he would definitely give a thumbs up to the Passive Transmigration Aura. This complete replacement mode should be called the perfect replacement mode.

But why does Ling Yi, the legendary Primordial Thunderbolt Hand, feel so awkward?

Ling Yi casually flicked away the two throwing knives that Yin Susu had shot at him, and then soared into the air like Great Peng spreading its wings. He leaped into the air, and then used his Icy True Qi to condense a thin layer of ice under his feet. Using this force, he spun around in the air and forcibly changed direction, heading straight for Yu Lianzhou and the others.

Upon learning the identity of the newcomer, Yu Lianzhou and the others naturally dared not be negligent. They channeled their Internal Energy to the fullest extent, and their three longswords pierced straight at Ling Yi's vital points from three directions.

"A mere trick! Take my Ice Palm!"

A terrifyingly Bing Han Aura emanated from Ling Yi's palms, causing the surrounding temperature to plummet Rapid Speed. Ice crystals even began to condense on the ship's side.

Yu Lianzhou and the others were only at the First-Rate- rate level, not yet at the peerless level, and were simply no match for such terrifying Xuanming True Qi.

The Internal Energy of the group was even affected by this chilling aura, causing it to stagnate and leaving them powerless to resist as Ling Yi sent them flying.

Ling Yi Ying Yi and appeared directly in front of Zhang Wuji, laughing heartily, "Boy, you'll suffer with me then; this is your You Can't Escape fate."

As he spoke, a stream of Xuanming cold energy entered Zhang Wuji's body.

Zhang Wuji a miserable cry and collapsed to the ground, curling up in pain.

" Ling Yi, release my son Wuji, or else..."

"What else?" Ling Yi grabbed Zhang Wuji and casually pressed a few acupoints to temporarily suppress the Xuanming True Qi within him.

"Boy, you'd better stay right next to me, or I'll make you endure that pain eighty-one times every day."

Zhang Wuji shuddered, looking at his parents pleadingly, but stood obediently behind Ling Yi, not daring to move an inch.

The pain he just experienced was so unbearable that he never wanted to feel it again.

" Zhang Cuishan, Yin Susu, you know what I want. Tell me the whereabouts of my traitorous disciple, and I will let you return to the Wudang Sect."

Neither of them were stupid; they knew that if they spoke up now, the outcome would likely be even worse.

"There is absolutely no way I would betray my sworn brother," Zhang Cuishan said resolutely.

"Then let's set sail and dock." Ling Yi didn't expect Zhang Cuishan to say it, especially since he knew Xie Xun was on Ice and Fire Island.

Ling Yi simply showed them that he would not give up until he achieved his goal, and that was enough.

" Ling Yi, for the sake of my the Final Master, please let us return to the Wudang Sect. Wudang Sect will remember this favor."

"Bringing Zhang Sanfeng into the picture won't help. The waterways are no longer safe. There are probably countless water ghosts lying in ambush ahead, waiting for you to Luowang."

Ling Yi is right; going ashore is the right thing to do now, since there are too many restrictions on the ship.

The sailboat docked, Ling Yi, carrying Zhang Wuji in one hand, didn't say a word, but simply continued on his way.

What could Zhang Cuishan and his companions do? They could only follow?

Yin Susu whispered to Yu Lianzhou, "Senior Brother Yu, find a chance to leave and return to the Wudang Sect to inform Perfected Zhang in person, then come and rescue us."

Yu Lianzhou nodded slightly. As he passed a grove of trees, he turned and plunged into the woods, using his Qinggong to disappear in the blink of an eye.

Ling Yi merely glanced back at Yin Susu, grinned, and didn't seem to care at all.

His original intention was to lure out Zhang Sanfeng, and now that Yu Lianzhou has left, it suits his purposes perfectly, saving him a lot of trouble.

Seeing Ling Yi's smile, Yin Susu felt a chill run down her spine for some reason. What exactly did this person want to do?

Is it just about finding out about the Dragon-Slaying Saber? It seems it's not that simple.

In Xiangyang City, Ling Yi had Zhang Cuishan and the others change their clothes. After all, the family of three had lived on the island for more than ten years, and their clothes were tattered and they smelled bad.

I don't know how they managed to persevere.

Currently, the only Blind Man on Ice and Fire Island is the Golden-Haired Lion King. Throwing a Blind Man onto Ice and Fire Island to play a Qiusheng seems rather impractical.

However, in the world of martial arts, Internal Energy and True Qi are like a panacea, as if as long as you have Internal Energy, you can do anything.

Locating sounds is a piece of cake. Take Ke Zhen'e from the Ke Zhen'e of the Legend of the Condor Heroes World or Xie Xun from the Heavenly Sword World, for example. Although Blind Man, they can still run around the world with their weapons.

If Matt Murdock, the Daredevil from the Marvel Universe, learned my Eastern internal martial arts, I wonder if he would become an enhanced version of Super Daredevil?

Shaking his head to clear the jumbled thoughts from his mind, Ling Yi led his now-renovated family of three into a restaurant...

Inside the restaurant, Ling Yi sipped his wine while watching Zhang Cuishan's family feast.

Especially Zhang Wuji, who was born and lived on the island for over a decade. While he wasn't exactly a primitive, he was close. Where had he ever seen such delicacies before?

Moreover, Ling Yi was not stingy, spending lavishly on the restaurant's signature dishes.

The negative Affection ratings above Zhang Cuishan and Yin Susu's heads remained Changes, hovering around -50.

However, Zhang Wuji's Affection fluctuated wildly, rising and falling repeatedly.

Ling Yi was very curious; what was this kid thinking?

"You should know your current situation, right?" Ling Yi said after seeing the family of three finish their meal.

Zhang Cuishan nodded, but remained silent.

"The Joker martial arts weapon, the Dragon- Dragon Slayer, commands the world with unparalleled might; without the Heaven Sword, who can rival it?"

"Do you know the true secrets of the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heavenly Sword?" Ling Yi put down his wine cup and asked with a smile.

"Does Your Excellency know?"

"I not only know the secrets of these two Divine Weapon, but also Divine Weapon origins, and who wrote these words."

Ling Yi's voice was not low, and there were many diners around, including some people from the Jianghu world.

Some people had already recognized Zhang Cuishan and his two companions.

In fact, Ling Yi had been under surveillance ever since he led Zhang Cuishan and the others into Xiangyang City.

The reputation of the legendary Dragon- Dragon Slayer in the Jianghu is no joke.

From the moment the Dragon-Slaying Saber appeared until now, countless people have died in this vortex of the Jianghu.

As Ling Yi finished speaking, the inn fell silent. Everyone listened quietly, equally curious about the secrets of the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heavenly Sword.

Zhang Cuishan quickly stopped him, saying, " Ling Yi, there are too many people around here; it's best to be careful what you say."

Ling Yi laughed heartily, poured himself A Cup of Wine, and stood up abruptly.

Raising his wine cup, he addressed the crowd in a loud voice. "Everyone in the Jianghu wants to know the secrets of the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heavenly Sword, and even more so, how the Dragon-Slaying Precious Saber commands the world. Today, I, Ling Yi, will reveal these secrets to the public, saving you all the trouble."
