Chapter 536 September 9th, the Summit of Mount Tai

On the Double Ninth Festival, the ninth day of September, the Jade Emperor Peak of Taishan Mountain in Dongyue.

Today is still a sunny day, the autumn breeze is blowing, and the white clouds are lingering. The coolness from last night has not dissipated, trying to leave traces of my existence in the rising sunshine.

However, the cool breeze that was still struggling on the top of the mountain could not dissipate the flames of gossip in the hearts of the people in the world.

Yesterday's sword fight was enough for them to brag about for twenty years.

They can brag about today's two-sword duel for another twenty years.

There is no greater martial arts event than this!

Tie Kaicheng also arrived at Jade Emperor Summit early. After all, one of the protagonists of today's duel was his master.

People from the Seven Sword Sects and the Shaolin Beggar Clan also came and bowed their hands to Tie Kaicheng. Their mood today was obviously much better than yesterday. Some disciples even put their arms around each other, talking and laughing.

"The Xie family is here!"

I don't know who shouted, and everyone looked towards the way they came, and saw a group of seven or eight people winding up the mountain.

"Is it Wangsun Xie? He actually came in person?"

"He hasn't left Shenjian Villa for seven or eight years. I didn't expect that he would come to Taishan in person this time."

"After all, Yan Shisan is not an ordinary person, and there is also a Red Flag Divine Sword on Yan Shisan's side that is no less than theirs."

"Yan Shisan and Xie Xiaofeng are fighting a fair duel. With thousands of people witnessing it, Mr. Tie will not mess with the rules of the world."

Everyone could clearly see that the first person in the group that was slowly walking up the mountain was an old man who was nearly sixty years old. He wore a green shirt with black trousers, cloth shoes and white socks. He looked simple, quiet and easy-going.

But no one dares to disrespect him, because he is the owner of this generation of Shenjian Villa, Xie Xiaofeng's father, Xie Wangsun.

Behind him was a fair and plump middle-aged man, two waiters and four sword servants. They were all dressed simply and not imposing.

If everyone didn't know their identities, they might just regard them as ordinary officers and guards from Jiangnan.

"Hey, Xie Xiaofeng is not in the team?"

"The boy who was taken away by Xie Xiaofeng that day is not in the team either."

In the Xie family's team, there are only Xie Wangsun and shopkeeper Xie, but not Xie Xiaofeng and his younger brother.

"Xie Xiaofeng is not with them?" Sun Xingyu asked.

Li Zhenzhen had sharp eyes, shook his head and said, "Xie Wangsun didn't bring the Xie family's sword, which means that Xie Xiaofeng has already returned to the Divine Sword Villa once."

Tie Kaicheng rubbed his chin, not sure whether Xie Xiaofeng went back by himself or Murong Qiudi went to get it.

And just after the Xie family's team arrived at Jade Emperor Peak, a figure emerged from the woods on the top of the mountain.

Black clothes and black sword, with thirteen pearls inlaid on the sword.

Yan Shisan is here!

Yan Shisan's eyes were indifferent and his face was expressionless. People around him didn't even dare to make eye contact with him, because anyone who saw Yan Shisan's eyes could only see death in his eyes.

Yan Shisan strolled to Jade Emperor Peak.

He passed the Xie family's team first and paused.

"Thank you, Master." Yan Shisan said calmly.

"I'm sorry." Xie Wangsun sighed.

"The owner of the village does not need to apologize. Since Xie Xiaofeng faked his death and escaped, to outsiders, he is really dead."

Yan Shisan said calmly, "This martial arts competition can take place just because Xie Xiaofeng is alive again, but it does not mean that he did not die eight years ago."

Xie Wangsun was silent for a moment, nodded and said, "Not bad."

Yan Shisan turned to Shopkeeper Xie, "What's more, I want to thank you for keeping this long sword for me."

Shopkeeper Xie grimaced and sighed, "But I hope there will never be a day when I can return this sword to you."

Yan Shisan smiled and said, "I may not win."

Shopkeeper Xie shook his head and said, "Sometimes I really don't understand people like you. Is victory or defeat really so important?"

Yan Shisan said, "It depends on who the opponent is."

"What do you mean?" Shopkeeper Xie asked.

"Xie Xiaofeng can admit defeat to a gangster and be willing to get stabbed, but will he admit defeat to Yan Shisan?" Yan Shisan walked past shopkeeper Xie and said calmly, "The same goes for Yan Shisan."

Watching Yan Shisan walk away, shopkeeper Xie sighed, "I knew they would have a fight sooner or later."

Xie Wangsun was silent and didn't know what he was thinking.

Then Yan Shisan came to Tie Kaicheng's side.

"Master!" Tie Kaicheng said.

"Don't call me master, I'm not your master." Yan Shisan shook his head, and then asked, "You, the leader of the Demon Killing Cult, didn't use the fifteenth sword?"

"He's not worthy yet," Tie Kaicheng said.

Yan Shisan couldn't help but laugh. Of course he knew that Tie Kaicheng was trying to hide the secret of the fifteenth fatal sword. After all, today was the duel between him and Xie Xiaofeng.

In order to hide the secret of the fatal fifteenth sword, Tie Kaicheng even used the fourteenth sword to kill Wan Ningzi and disturb the audience.

If Xie Xiaofeng was slightly negligent, the chance of failure would be 30% higher.

"It's unnecessary. This sword can't be broken just once." Yan Shisan shook his head and said, "I originally wanted to see the magic sword strike, but it seems I have no chance."

"The Divine Sword Slash is indeed a peerless sword technique, but the leader of the Demon Cult has not practiced it to the point where there are no flaws." Tie Kaicheng said, "His scimitar cannot block your long sword."

Yan Shisan thought for a while and suddenly asked, "Xie Xiaofeng is stronger than the leader of the Demon Cult?"

Tie Kaicheng said, "Yes."

"That's good." Yan Shisan nodded, then walked past Tie Kaicheng and arrived at the Jade Emperor's Summit step by step.

The top of Yuhuang Peak is not very big. After leaving enough space for the competition, there is only enough space around for dozens of people to stop. Most of the remaining people in the martial arts world dare not get too close. They can't see anything at all.

"Yan Shisan has arrived. Where is Xie Xiaofeng?"

"The sun has risen. He is not afraid of fighting and dare not come, right?"

"What a joke. The third young master of the Xie family became famous at the age of ten and dominated the martial arts world for twenty years. When has he ever been afraid of fighting? No one has ever survived under Yan Shisan's deadly sword. It's as if Xie Xiaofeng has killed few people."

"Not necessarily. If it was before yesterday, I actually thought Xie Xiaofeng had a better chance of winning, but..."

"The apprentice is so powerful, what about the master?"

"That's because you are all young and have not experienced the martial arts world ten years ago. If you had entered the martial arts world earlier and seen the third young master of the Xie family take action, you might not think so."

The onlookers talked a lot, and then a person slowly squeezed out of the crowd and slowly walked towards the top of the peak.

It was not until he walked a long way that everyone noticed his existence.

Because he looked too ordinary, with an ordinary figure, ordinary posture, and holding an ordinary black-sheathed long sword, he looked like a down-and-out jianghu.

But the eyes of those who knew him all changed.

"Xie Xiaofeng is here!"
