Chapter 573: 270: Night Talk at the Inn_3



Though the people of Jianghu live a carefree and unrestrained life, treacherous dangers lurk around every corner, and one could easily die in a private feud or vendetta.

Now, Bai Niao Villa is organizing a grand swordsmanship competition, stirring up Hengyang’s martial arts scene. Various forces will definitely incite a bloody fight for their own interests.

As they are caught in the middle of this tumult, they don’t know if they can survive the chaos and live to see the end.

Another person nearby thought of this and cursed bitterly, “These damned Zhou people, these damned outsiders! They’ve been restless these past few months, causing trouble not only in other places but also in my Hengyang Mansion. They’re all northerners, none of them can be trusted.”

Meanwhile, another clenched his teeth and said, “That’s right. Despite the imperial ban, they still dare to hold such a large gathering. They’re obviously up to no good. I bet they’re planning something sinister like the old Seven Star Sect, trying to make a big move!”

Hearing this, the noise in the hall quieted down considerably.

Back in the day, the Seven Star Sect caused a massive rebellion. The commotion was substantial.

If it weren’t for the brilliant and divine martial prowess of the King of Chu, who led the army to suppress the rebellion, who knows what kind of chaos would have ensued.

To say that Bai Niao Villa wants to follow in the footsteps of the Seven Star Sect is almost like accusing the former of plotting a rebellion.

However, after thinking about it, the people realized the truth.

In the past few months, there have indeed been numerous incidents in Jianghu circles.

Not only did the countless northern Zhou sects break the imperial ban by organizing all kinds of alliances and meetings, but the private feuds and vendettas amongst those of Jianghu have also increased to staggering numbers.

On both sides of the official road, they could often see the corpses of Jianghu people.

This place wasn’t as peaceful as it was a few years ago.

Could it be that these relocated Zhou sects are planning a rebellion?

After all, the present King is leading the army on an expedition, leaving the country vulnerable. If someone with ulterior motives wanted to engage in treason, there would be no better opportunity than now.

Many people became worried when they thought of this possibility.

Just as everyone had their own concerns, the soldier dressed man in the hall finally finished his meal and stood up, laughing contemptuously at everyone. “All of this talk about Bai Niao Villa is just a bunch of clowns with overinflated egos,

They only dare to stir up trouble when the king is leading the army and the queen is the only one left to hold up the fort.

Their calculations seem to be quite good, but they’ve underestimated our Great Chu.”

We received news from Xiangyang that Zhou Qing, the Grand General of our Great Chu, has already broken through Innatehood two months ago, becoming a first-class grandmaster of this era.”

Since then, our Great Chu has had three Inborn Grandmasters.

Now, the king has sent the news from the front line that the entire nation is celebrating the General’s achievement of Innatehood.”

It won’t be long before announcements are made by the local government offices for the preparations.

Although the king is still leading the army,

Our Great Chu has the Grand General in the north and the Queen in the south. With these two Grandmasters, plus the local army of over 100,000 strong soldiers, what sort of turmoil could these little clowns cause?

Bai Niao Villa, with a top martial artist?

Hmph!

These lawless scoundrels think that just because the king isn’t here, there’s no one who can control them?

Just wait until the local government sends out a command, and thousands of soldiers will surround and kill them. No matter what kind of top martial artist or Jianghu heroic figure they are, they’ll have to submit bitterly under a barrage of haphazard arrows.”

With these words, the soldier looked sharply at the Jianghu martial artists in the hall, obviously with a strong sense of hostility.

Feeling the intensity of his eyes, the Jianghu crowd didn’t even dare to stare back in anger, let alone express their previous arrogance and unrestraint towards the scholars.

In this age of chaos and strife, the strongest amongst the martial artists are often not in the Jianghu, but in the imperial court and the military.

Compared to the blood and gore experienced by these battle-hardened soldiers, the so-called storms in the Jianghu are not worth mentioning.

What shocked the Jianghu people most was the news the soldier had shared.

The Grand General of the Chu State, Zhou Qing, had actually broken through Innatehood?

This news, like a storm, sent a shockwave through the hearts of all who studied martial arts involved.

After all, no one understood better than them what it meant to have a Grandmaster of Innatehood in Jianghu.

Similarly,

They also knew what kind of change it would bring to the current situation when Chu State had one more Inborn Grandmaster.

As for Bai Niao Villa and the other Jianghu sects that have sprung up everywhere…

Well, this time, it seems they’ve jumped the gun.

Compared to an Inborn Grandmaster, they are truly just like the soldier said: nothing more than mere clowns.

The skies of the Grand Chu are about to change again.

Everyone in the hall exchanged glances and couldn’t help but think about this.

After sharing the news, the soldier packed up his belongings, paid the bill, and hurriedly left the inn. In the darkness of the night, he rode off into the distance.

Kong Zhuo also finished watching the scene and turned his attention away.

At this time, the food and wine had already been served. As he ate, Kong Zhuo’s thoughts churned turbulently.

“Grand General Zhou Qing, I didn’t expect my uncle, no, the King’s eldest disciple, to have reached this point now. Inborn Grandmaster, what kind of demeanor does someone of that level have?”

Kong Zhuo reminisced about the past meeting with Lu Yuan, the man his father had praised time and time again as having the Immortal Root and bone structure. Not only did he become an Inborn Grandmaster, but even his disciple had also stepped into that realm.

Both master and disciple attaining Innatehood is truly an enviable and astounding legend.

In comparison, Kong Zhuo, who had barely stepped into the second tier just a year ago, was leagues behind them.

“Forget it, those people are far beyond my reach. I should just go back to Qingyun View and see Master. I haven’t seen him in so long after traveling around for two years, I wonder how he’s doing?

Also, there’s the Inescapable Meeting next year.

ten years ago, the King of Chu accompanied Master to Ziyun Dao and attended this grand Daoist event.

According to my Master, it was at this Meeting that the king gained many rewards and even met the Dao master of Ziyun himself.”

I wonder if I can gain any benefits from attending this time.

I don’t dare to dream of reaching Innatehood, but if it can help me break through to first tier, then this trip won’t be in vain.”

Kong Zhuo, now in his early twenties, was experiencing rapid growth in strength and ambition.

Despite having just broken through to the second tier, he already envisioned reaching the first tier and becoming a founder of his own Dao Inheritance.

In the past, the young son of the County Magistrate hadn’t followed either his father into office or his master into the Daoist Path. Still, he held his own ambition for greatness in the world of martial arts.

After finishing his meal and being stirred up by the previous news, Kong Zhuo discarded the idea of spending another night at the inn and followed the soldier outside.

He retrieved his horse from the backyard and rode into the vast night, heading back to Qingyun View.
