Chapter 358 The Eldest Brother Coming Back to the Sect
Ding Hao slightly released his divine awareness.
He could vaguely feel that the whole peak was filled with an invisible and recondite inscription, along with various other inscriptions and formations. Also, some kind of auxiliary inscriptive magical weapon was inlaid in the mountain. A powerful aura enveloped the whole Sword-hidden Peak.
“Well, it’s good. It’s interesting. Only based on the inside information of the Sword-hidden Peak, the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect can be seen as a dominant sect in the Snow Province!” Sword Master sighed with inward emotion.
“It seems that it’s right for Little Chap Ding to choose the Sword-hidden Peak,” Saber Master said with a little surprise, “The Sword-hidden Peak is not so simple, to only float in the void. I can feel that powerful strength is sealed within!”
Ding Hao was silently surprised.
The Sword-hidden Peak seemed to be remarkable, since it could be praised by those two old monsters. No wonder it had incomparable influence in the high level of the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect, though it had always been little-known.
“Be careful.”
The cynical man’s expression became dignified. He took out a small silver token from his bosom and flicked his finger to send it out. Whew, it flew towards the Sword-hidden Peak.
Boom!
A majestic aura suddenly expanded, and a powerful force was suddenly generated. It was like a sleeping behemoth being awakened; a layer of a transparent water curtain suddenly appeared around the Sword-hidden Peak. That token was shot on the scary water curtain, and after a slight pause, an oval tunnel was opened.
The metal Magical Weapon Giant Eagle gave a long cry and dived through that oval tunnel immediately.
“Not everyone can climb on the Sword-hidden Peak. Even a super expert in the Martial Royal Realm may not break the Water Curtain Heaven by attacking it directly,” the cynical man explained to Ding Hao with pride.
Ding Hao clicked his tongue.
Wow, it was just like cooking leeks with green Chinese onions. It was so shocking that superiors who were in the Martial Royal Realm may not be able to break that water curtain, because it seemed that there were no superiors in the Martial Royal Realm in the whole Snow Province. Did it mean that no matter how strong the enemies one met, as long as he hid in the Sword-hidden Peak, no one could do anything to him?
The Magical Weapon Giant Eagle landed on a one-hundred-square-meter plaza in the Sword-hidden Peak. Its body shook, and countless long swords that formed its body rubbed and clanked. It suddenly shrank to a normal-sized eagle and flexibly jumped to the shoulder of the cynical man.
Looking at the fat cat Evil Moon on his shoulder and the eagle on the shoulder of the cynical man, Ding Hao sighed.
Evil Moon noticed Ding Hao’s expression, and then it suddenly jumped angrily and said, “Why did you sigh? Is a n.o.ble and pure cat inferior to a silly bird which is full of metal and cannot speak?”
As soon as it had finished speaking—
“Master Peak is waiting for you in the thatched cottage,” the Magical Weapon Giant Eagle made a cold and mechanical sound with its eyes flickering with a red light.
Evil Moon was suddenly transfixed.
Could that giant mechanical bird speak?
The cynical man laughed and showed the way in front. He walked toward the edge of that small square.
On the Sword-hidden Peak, the scenery was beautiful. It was full of green trees and luxuriant gra.s.s; beautiful b.u.t.terflies with various colors danced among flowers and rockeries. The winding water flowed and groups of koi were in it. The flowing water formed big and small falls with the height of the terrain. They were like silver or the belt, and the sound of water was melodious, which made that place a fairyland.
Following the cynical man and turning around several times on that winding trail, they soon reached a cliff lawn.
A thatched cottage formed by gra.s.s appeared in front of them, and a peach tree was beside the thatched cottage. Pink peach blossoms were blooming beautifully and when a breeze blew; flowers fluttered, fell down, and flew all over the sky, which was relaxing and extremely beautiful.
A tall figure stood silently under the peach tree.
His wild hair, as well as his clothes and long sleeves swung in the wind. With a wine gourd hung from his waist, he was likely to ascend. He seemed to stand aloof from the world and had an unearthly aura.
“Brat, you finally came.”
That figure turned around, and he was Qi Qingshan, an old monster.
“h.e.l.lo, master,” Ding Hao saluted sincerely.
Qi Qingshan nodded, pointed to w.a.n.g Juefeng, the cynical man, and said to Ding Hao, “Well, this guy wors.h.i.+ped me as a master before you, so you can just call him eldest brother.”
The eldest brother?
Ding Hao was stupefied and turned his head to see w.a.n.g Juefeng. Then, he was suddenly enlightened.
No wonder it was w.a.n.g Juefeng who came to lead him to the Sword-hidden Peak, and no wonder the cynical man’s position in the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect was always a little bit strange. His strength was unfathomable and was even more powerful than people like Lu Qi and Yin Yifei. He could even challenge Mu Tianyang and not die. However, such an expert was only a small teacher-in-charge in the Eastern Academy of green s.h.i.+rts.
“Master… You… are finally willing to accept me as your disciple again!” the cynical man who usually laughed and joked flopped down on his knees when he heard it. The tears in his eyes flowed down, and his whole body was s.h.i.+vering due to his excitement.
Ding Hao was shocked because that was the first time for him to see such an expression on the cynical man’s face.
Could a word from Qi Qingshan shake him so much?
“Brat, stand up,” Qi Qingshan sighed and said, “I had a short fuse that year. I shouldn’t have blamed you for that event. Now everything has changed and I have been asking myself whether I did it too seriously at that time.”
“No, master, you did the right thing. I didn’t have any malicious thoughts. I should be blamed for not being able to save Junior Brother Tianhua, because of my naughtiness and disability… In addition, I’m not an unreasonable person, so I know that the reason why you expelled me was to better protect me,” w.a.n.g Juefeng said with excitement.
“Tianhua… He had this tribulation in his life. He didn’t avoid it because he was self-willed and pushy… It’s the best for you to understand my good intentions,” Qi Qingshan sighed and waved his hand, and strong power poured from it, helping w.a.n.g Juefeng, the cynical man who knelt on the ground, up.
Ding Hao vaguely understood something at the moment and he turned around and saluted the cynical man, “h.e.l.lo, eldest brother!”
No wonder the cynical man taunted him when Ding Hao jokingly put on airs and tried to have the cynical man call him martial uncle. There was such a story behind it and it seemed that he could not become the martial uncle of the cynical man.
It seemed that the cynical man had been expelled from the sect by Qi Qingshan. Therefore, his position was strange in the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect. He had excellent strength but did not have seniority. In addition, some other people would hit him when he was down, so it was expected that the cynical man was frustrated.
Ding Hao suddenly felt that he should have thought of it in the past.
That was because the cynical man was similar to Qi Qingshan in temperament. They always used bad language and their behavior was violent and savage. It seemed that they were carried to the world of the living by the same ghost.
“Where are the other fellow male apprentices? I would like to pay an official call…” Ding Hao asked with temptation.
