Chapter 273 - 273: Gathering Storm (3)



The sun rose and set, and night came again in the blink of an eye.

The Martial Understanding Mountain in the middle of Wu Province was outside the Iron River Manor, which ranked first among the twelve sects of Wu Province. From time to time, the leaders of Jianghu sects, who had come from afar, would arrive and enter under the guidance of disciples.

Northern Liang’s Thief Sage, who was dressed in night clothes, looked at the mountainside for a moment before silently infiltrating from the back of the mountain. She didn’t alarm any patrolling martial artists and slowly circled to the stone cliff behind the manor.

The stone cliff was hundreds of feet high and offered a bird’s-eye view of the Iron River Manor below. In a tea garden in the rear area, two figures could be vaguely seen sitting on the tea couch in front of the window and talking.

The person sitting on the left was Bai Siming, who had rushed to the Iron River Manor after arriving in River Source County in the early morning. The middle-aged man on the right was Guan Yujia, the leader of the twelve sects of Wu Province.

These two people were top experts in Jianghu. In order to guard against the walls having ears, Guan Yujia had already dismissed the servants in the surrounding buildings, and their voices were not loud. Normal experts were lying on the stone cliff in the distance, so it was impossible for them to hear anything.

However, the black-clothed woman could sense the abnormal movements of Daoist Xuanji from 250 meters away. Her six senses had long drawn a line with those of ordinary people. Even though she was far away, she could still vaguely hear the conversation coming from the window.

“The imperial court’s vanguard has already arrived. Even if the Pacifying Heaven Cult really wants to win over His Highness, it’s probably too late. Going to the Prince of Yan isn’t safe either. If we want to leave Wu Province, we still have to rely on ourselves…”

The one who spoke was Bai Siming. After he traveled for a long time without rest, his face was already exhausted, but his expression was still focused.

Guan Yujia, sitting opposite him, was playing with a string of beads in his hand, his expression unhappy. “I’ve been working hard in Wu Province for decades before 1 became the leader of Wu Province. It’s true that the Prince of Wu took care of me in the past, but I’ve also helped him a lot…”

Bai Siming knew that Guan Yujia couldn’t bear to part with the position of Wu Province’s martial arts alliance leader. He frowned and said, “You handle all of His Highness’s matters in Jianghu. If you want to get off the ship now and cut ties with His Highness, I’m afraid it’s too late. Moreover, you’re known as the ‘Little Fist Chief’, but you know the difference between you and Jiang Zhahu. Without the pill refined by His Highness, you can forget about leaving behind the word ‘little’ in your life…”

The string of beads in Guan Yujia’s hand paused, and he was rather dissatisfied with these words. “I’ve been at the prince’s beck and call for years, but Sir Bai, I’ve only heard you brag about the Heavenly Carnelian Bead. No one has seen the actual effect of the finished product. For a secret medicine that I have doubts about its authenticity, I’ve bet all my wealth…”

“This medicine is definitely real, and it has already become a medicine. It’s just that ordinary martial artists can’t withstand the potency of the medicine, and we lack a Grandmaster with a deep foundation to test the medicine.”

Bai Siming leaned closer. “In two days, all the sect masters of the twelve sects of Wu Province will be here. As long as they are poisoned by the strange poison that Zhang Jinglin concocted, they can only listen to His Highness’s orders for the antidote… The Three Absolutes Elderly Immortal is an elder of Jianghu. He values rules and has lived long enough. It’s impossible for him to bend his knees and live a lowly life. He would definitely rather die than submit. When the time comes, I can use him to test the medicine…”

When Guan Yujia heard this, he frowned and turned to look at Bai Siming coldly. “Okay, let the Three Absolutes Elderly Immortal test the medicine. If he dies suddenly, it means that the Heavenly Carnelian Bead that the Prince of Wu researched is utterly useless. It’s impossible for me to escape with him.

“If the medicine works, and the Heavenly Carnelian Bead is as powerful as you say, the Three Absolutes Elderly Immortal might be able to directly become a Martial Chief after being reborn.

“The Three Absolutes Elderly Immortal’s saber technique can compete with Xuanyuan Chao’s, his fist technique can compete with Liu Qiansheng’s, and his movement technique can compete with Lu Jieyun’s. Sir Bai, if you allow him to step into the Martial Chief realm, do you understand what it means?”

Bai Siming sat up straighter and suddenly felt that this was indeed a problem.

The last five of the Eight Chiefs specialized in one path and had tempered their domains to an unparalleled level.

As for the first three, they practiced everything both internally and externally. They didn’t have any shortcomings in using weapons, unarmed combat, and movement techniques.

If the Three Absolutes Elderly Immortal had the physical foundation of the Eight Chiefs, he would definitely rank fourth among the Eight Chiefs. Even if Xuanyuan Chao and Zhou Chiyang came, they might not be able to gain an advantage against him. Using medicine to give birth to such an old deity, who would deal with him when the time came…

“The medicinal effect of the trial medicine isn’t that strong. It shouldn’t make the Three Absolutes Elderly Immortal reach such a height… But to be safe, it’s better to test someone else. It’s best to let Guan Shengxing of the Black Tortoise Hall try it. He isn’t even a Grandmaster. Even if his strength increases greatly after taking the medicine, at most, he will be about the same as Huang Yulong. Brother Guan, you won’t have any pressure dealing with him…”

“Guan Shengxing’s physical foundation is not much better than the martial artists who tested the medicine in the past. He might not be able to withstand the effects of the medicine.. If you want to test it, you have to find a powerful martial artist not far from us to see if this medicine is really effective…”
