C130 Secret Realm Martial Arts Competition
C130 Secret Realm Martial Arts Competition
It wasn't that Lee Yunlong didn't want to reward Wang Hao, who had just become the chief disciple, but that an important guest had come.
In the living room, a young man sat alone on the main seat, crossed his legs, and was leisurely drinking tea.
If Wang Hao was here, he would immediately recognize that this young man was the Second Young Master of Ling family, Ling Wenyu, whom he had met on a narrow road.
Lee Yunlong's face immediately became serious when he saw Ling Wenyu. He knew very well why Ling Wenyu came to Snow Sword Sect.
Lee Yunlong was the first to speak after entering the meeting room.
"I didn't know that Young Master Ling had come. I didn't go out to welcome you. I hope Young Master Ling can atone for my crimes!"
Lee Yunlong lowered his attitude, but Ling Wenyu didn't even look at him.
Ling Wenyu walked straight to Elder Zhao and said kindly, "Elder Zhao, long time no see. You are still so radiant!"
Elder Zhao was the father of Zhao Wudi, the number one general in Ice Snow Domain. As the second young master of the Ice Snow Domain's number one family, Ling Wenyu naturally knew him.
However, Elder Zhao was an elder of Snow Sword Sect. He ignored Lee Yunlong and greeted him first. Obviously, he had given Lee Yunlong a gift. A show of force!
Lee Yunlong's face darkened. Although he was furious, he couldn't vent it.
Elder Zhao sighed helplessly. It seemed like Snow Sword Sect really had trouble this time.
He could only reply, "It has been a long time since we last met. Nephew Ling, you have become more mature. The Ling family Master actually asked you to take charge of this matter."
Ling Wenyu laughed loudly, "Elder Zhao must be joking. Compared to big brother, this little trouble of mine is nothing."
Speaking up to this point, Ling Wenyu seemed to have just discovered Lee Yunlong. He hurriedly said, "Li Sect Master, how have you been?"
Lee Yunlong's expression became even uglier, but at this moment, he could only choose to endure.
He was even glad that he didn't bring Elder Chen here. With Elder Chen's temper, he didn't care if you were the second young master of Ling family or not. If you didn't like him, you would just leave the mountain. If that was really the case, Snow Sword Sect would face extinction.
Lee Yunlong could only get straight to the point, "Young Master Ling, may I know what's the purpose of your visit to Snow Sword Sect?"
Ling Wenyu said with a smile, "I'm here to ask on behalf of my father about the matter we discussed last time. How's Lee Sect Master's consideration going?"
A few years ago, the patriarch of the Ling family had once gathered the Sect Master of the four major sects and gathered them in the Ice Sealed City. In the name of emergency at the border, he wanted to transfer the ten strongest disciples of the four major sects to participate in the realm war!
Naturally, the Sect Master of the four major sects could not agree to it. The top ten disciples of each sect, namely the core disciples, were the future of the sect. If all of them were to be transferred out, how was it different from directly destroying the sect?
Once a precedent was set, the Ling family would have more excuses to transfer more new disciples from the four major sects.
Once the four major sects declined, the Ling family would become the sole overlord of the Ice Snow Domain. Their ambition could be seen with a single glance!
Lee Yunlong said in a cold voice, "Young Master Ling, the elders and I have yet to reach an agreement on this matter. I hope the Ling family will wait a few more days and hear the answer!"
Lee Yunlong was using a delaying tactic. As long as the four major sects did not let them go, no matter how powerful the Ling family was, it was impossible for them to be the enemy of the four major sects!
Ling Wenyu didn't get angry when he heard Lee Yunlong's refusal. A smile was still plastered on his face.
"Since your sect hasn't decided yet, you should think about it for a few more days. We, the Ling family, can afford to wait. I have other things to attend to this time. "
Ling Wenyu's reaction was a little out of Lee Yunlong's expectation. He replied with a question, "What is it?"
"I heard that the four big sects are going to hold a martial arts competition soon. I wonder if this is the case?"
Lee Yunlong nodded. The martial arts competition of the four big sects was a tradition that had been formed in the past hundred years. Everyone in Ice Snow Domain knew about it, so he naturally could not deny it.
Ling Wenyu laughed and said, "It's like this. My father has recently encountered a bottleneck in his cultivation. If he wanted to relax and relax, as his son, he naturally had to show filial piety. I heard that the competition between the four great sects is about to begin, so I wanted to bring my father along to observe it. I wonder if Li Sect Master welcomes us?"
Lee Yunlong nodded, "It is the honor of our four big sects that the Ling family Master has graced us with his presence. I, Li, can't wait to see him, so why would I refuse?"
"That's good. I heard that in the previous years, the four major sects competed. It was all about fighting in the arena. It was really boring. Father will definitely not be happy to see it. Why don't we have this year's competition? Let me, Ling Wenyu, make the decision and change the format. How about it? "
Lee Yunlong raised his brows. He could sense a trace of conspiracy in Ling Wenyu's words.
"How does Young Master Ling plan to hold the martial arts competition?"
"Rather than fighting in the arena in such a boring manner, why don't we send the participating disciples of the four major sects? By sending them into the secret realm, they can test whether the disciples of each sect are united or not. Secondly, it can also allow the four big sects to compete directly and finally determine the ranking. What do you think?"
"Of course. In order to show the sincerity of the Ling family, the Ling family is willing to pay a hundred Profound Rank Combat Techniques as a reward. I wonder what Li Sect Master thinks about it?"
" A hundred! "
Even Lee Yunlong, who was a prestigious sect, couldn't help but feel shocked by Ling Wenyu's generosity. A hundred Profound Rank Combat Techniques was a huge amount of cultivation resources. From this point, it could be seen how wealthy the Ling family was.
Faced with such temptation, Lee Yunlong didn't agree immediately. Instead, he asked, "May I know where Young Master Ling is referring to in this secret realm?"
Ling Wenyu explained, "There are countless secret realms in Ice Snow Domain, but they are the most suitable place for the disciples of the four major sects to train. It's the Hidden Sword Valley of your sect. The Hidden Sword Valley hasn't seen the light of day for a hundred years, so it's time for it to be lively."
Upon hearing the name of Hidden Sword Valley, not only Lee Yunlong's expression changed, even Elder Zhao and Elder Hee furrowed their brows.
The reason why Snow Sword Sect was called the Snow Sword Sect was because of the founder of the Snow Sword Sect. He had once found an underground valley with countless broken swords hidden underneath the cold mountain peak where the Snow Sword Sect was located.
It was rumored that there was a shocking secret hidden within the Hidden Sword Valley. Since the establishment of the Snow Sword Sect, warriors had secretly invaded the sect. They went to explore the valley, but after so many years, no one had found anything valuable.
The Hidden Sword Valley had been silent for a hundred years. Ling Wenyu's suggestion of using the Hidden Sword Valley as a training ground had aroused Lee Yunlong's suspicion.
Seeing that Lee Yunlong did not agree, Ling Wenyu's face darkened slightly.
"Li Sect Master, our Ling family has always made concessions. Why? Is your sect not willing to accept such a small matter?"
Lee Yunlong sighed in his heart. It seemed like if he didn't agree to Ling Wenyu's request today, he would have to break all pretenses with the Ling family.
"Since Young Master Ling has made such a request, it would be unreasonable for me to refuse. Let's do as Young Master Ling says!"
Hearing this, Ling Wenyu smiled once again, "Then I'll have to thank Sect Master. As for the time of the competition, it will be set in ten days. As for the other Three Major Sects, I will send someone to invite them. Farewell!"
After saying that, Ling Wenyu left without turning his head back.
Once Ling Wenyu left, Elder Zhao hurriedly said, "Sect Master, why did you agree to it?"
Lee Yunlong said in a deep voice, "Ling family is very powerful, and it's not something that our Snow Sword Sect can fight against. During the competition in Hidden Sword Valley, we can take the opportunity to ally with the other Three Major Sects and fight the Ling family together!"
Elder Hee said, "But the Sect Master. The Hidden Sword Valley is the place where the Snow Sword Sect was founded. Although no one has discovered the secret here, the Ling family has chosen this place specifically. There must be some scheme behind it!"
"Then we can only agree to it first. I have a notebook left behind by my ancestor. You can hand it over to Wang Hao! In this sect competition, as the new chief disciple, he must shoulder the responsibility! "
...
Ling Wenyu went down the mountain. There was a man standing at the foot of the mountain. He looked at the peak of the mountain and did not move. He did not say a word.
Ling Wenyu walked in front of him and teased, "Don't you want to go back and take a look after leaving your sect for so long?"
The man looked at Ling Wenyu. He was only in his thirties, but his eyes were filled with vicissitudes of life.
"Like I said, I'm no longer a disciple of Snow Sword Sect."
Ling Wenyu waved his hand, "I don't care if you are still a member of the Snow Sword Sect or not. I just want to ask you, is the agreement between us still counted?"
The man said in a deep voice, "I, Yang Qin, value promises the most. You give me a chance. I will help you destroy the Snow Sword Sect!"
Yang Qin!
If Wang Hao heard this name, he would definitely remember the story that Elder Zhao had told him back then.
The main character of the story was Yang Qin. Twenty years ago, he was once the most outstanding disciple of the Snow Sword Sect. He had won countless glory for the Snow Sword Sect, but for some reason, he had turned against the Snow Sword Sect!
He had been infiltrating and planning to destroy the Snow Sword Sect's Sky Scorpion Organization. The mastermind behind this was Yang Qin. He had been accumulating his strength, vowing to make the Snow Sword Sect disappear from this world without a trace.
Ling Wenyu had found him and provided him with the opportunity that he had dreamt of.
Hearing Yang Qin's promise, Ling Wenyu nodded his head in satisfaction. He said, "Ten days later, I will lead the Three Major Sects to attack the Snow Sword Sect. I don't think I need to tell you what you should do."
Yang Qin didn't answer, he turned around and left.
Looking at Yang Qin's back as he left, Ling Wenyu snorted coldly and said, "What's there to be arrogant about? Once the Snow Sword Sect is destroyed, you won't have any value anymore. When the time comes, you will be at my mercy."
...
When Elder Hee found Wang Hao, he was drinking with the members of the Dragon Leaping House. The decisive battle with the Heavenly Will Pavilion had made the disciples of the Dragon Leaping House vent their anger.
Qin Hui had already woken up. He didn't care about the unhealed pain on his body and joined the party.
"Wang Hao."
Elder Hee's voice was very soft, but it sounded like a bell ringing in Wang Hao's ears. Wang Hao shivered and put down the wine glass in a hurry. He came in front of Elder Hee.
"Elder Hee, you are looking for me?"
Wang Hao's expression was unusually respectful. He respected this old man who had selflessly taught him the Artifact Refining Technique.
Elder Hee nodded. "Come with me. Let's talk in a quiet place."
After saying that, Elder Hee grabbed Wang Hao's shoulder. In the next moment, they had already appeared in Elder Hee's forging room.
Although this wasn't the first time Wang Hao had experienced this, he was still surprised. This kind of ability to shrink a thousand meters in the blink of an eye and shrink an inch was truly amazing.
Elder Hee waved his hand casually and a sound restriction was placed in the room. As long as the eavesdropper's realm did not exceed Elder Hee's, the conversation between Elder Hee and Wang Hao would not be heard by others.
Elder Hee took out an ancient sheepskin scroll from his Essence Ring and handed it to Wang Hao.
"This is the notebook of the grandmaster. Take a look first."
