Creeeak.

The old wooden door opened with the groan of aged hinges, carrying with it the unmistakable scent of a place that had stood for many years. The smell of old books and dry wood filled Cang Wuyin’s nose as he stepped inside.

“It’s been a while, Scripture Pavilion.”

Cang Wuyin grinned.

He had come here after finishing his personal training, and the familiar scent immediately brought back memories. In the past, the Scripture Pavilion had been one of the places he hated visiting most. Back

    At the same time, Cang Wuyin still held onto a faint hope.The Northern Sea might not have been comparable to the Central Plains, but perhaps there was some force here strong enough to keep the Northern Sea Ice Palace in check.‘So it really isn’t for nothing that they’re called the overlord of the Northern Sea.’Unfortunately, that hope had remained nothing more than a hope.After seeing the situation for himself, Cang Wuyin understood why the Northern Sea Ice Palace had earned that title. There was not a single force in the region that could stand on equal footing with it.Several minor sects existed throughout the Northern Sea, but none dared raise a banner against the Northern Sea Ice Palace. If anything, they all seemed to operate under its authority.‘I had aimed to use one enemy to restrain another.’Cang Wuyin had always believed that the best way to prevent a war was to make sure it never started in the first place. That was why he had come to the Northern Sea. He wanted to f

    At the same time, confidence began to rise within Wei Tianque.Cang Wuyin was a master of Shaolin, and the moment someone of his standing acknowledged him, the doubts that had gathered in one corner of Wei Tianque’s heart finally disappeared. It felt as though snow had melted beneath the sun, leaving behind a sense of clarity he had not possessed before.“Before long, the sword of the Wei Family Estate will shake Jianghu. Through Zhenhe, that is.”“If I don’t want to hold back my youngest son, I’ll have to work myself to death for real.”Wei Tianque said it with a light laugh, but his expression told a different story. His eyes were filled with more passion than ever before, as if the future he had once struggled to imagine was finally within reach.“I’ll be cheering you on.”“I will also pray that Young Master Cang remains safe and unharmed.”“Then, we’ll meet again next time.”After their farewells were nearly finished, Wei Zhenhe turned around and gave Cang Wuyin one last look.

    From early morning, the Wei Family Estate had been in an uproar.More precisely, the entire estate had become a sea of tears.For the first time in his life, Wei Zhenhe was leaving home. Every member of the family, along with the household retainers, had come out to see him off, and many of them were crying openly. His mother and grandmother were the worst of all. They held both of his hands between theirs and refused to let go, as though releasing him would make the separation real.“Please don’t worry too much. I’ll learn a lot from Su Yueli and come back.”“You’ll make sure to keep in touch regularly, right?”“Wherever you go, don’t skip meals. Serve Young Master Cang well. You know that, right? Never forget, not for a moment, that Young Master Cang is your benefactor.”His two older brothers only had reddened eyes, but his mother and grandmother shed tears without restraint. Wei Zhenhe’s own eyes became moist as he listened to them, yet he stubbornly refused to let the tears fall.

    “Ah, to be precise, I am the Rumor Lord of the Hao Sect. I know absolutely nothing about Young Lady Nan.”“When you put it that way, it makes me even more curious. As to why you wanted to meet me.”Qiu Lingxue smiled meaningfully as she looked directly at him.“Wouldn’t it be good to have many friends in Jianghu?”“Friends?”Qiu Lingxue’s eyes widened.She had never expected the word ‘friends’ to come so naturally from Cang Wuyin.Cang Wuyin was a disciple of Shaolin, an existence known as the Great North Star of the Orthodox Martial World. Qiu Lingxue, meanwhile, was the Rumor Lord of the Hao Sect, an organization that existed between the orthodox and unorthodox paths.Yet Cang Wuyin spoke as though there was nothing strange about the two of them becoming friends.It was difficult for her to believe.“I’m genuinely curious, so let me ask. Does the Hao Sect choose its friends selectively?”“Not at all. We’re not like that. If you really look at it, our Hao Sect is a sect where all kin

    ‘Back then, she was the lackey, the underling, the attack dog of the Four Tyrants of the World.’ Cang Wuyin recalled.Along with the Wandering Sages’ Sect, the Hao Sect possessed the greatest information network in the Central Plains. Yet both organizations had eventually fallen under the shadow of the Four Tyrants of the World.More precisely, the Four Tyrants of the World had deliberately drawn the Hao Sect to their side by offering something the organization had desired for generations.They gave the Hao Sect access to martial arts that had once been firmly guarded by prestigious families and great sects.As a result, techniques that had previously been completely out of the Hao Sect’s reach began flowing into their hands.‘Hao Sect’s craving for supreme techniques was tremendous. But they didn’t know that masters aren’t born through martial arts alone.’The Hao Sect had been founded by people of low birth who had gathered together and built an organization of their own.Because of

    Cang Wuyin’s calm, deep gaze settled on Wei Zhenhe.It was the kind of look that made it obvious he already knew exactly how the young man had been spending his days.Under that gaze, Wei Zhenhe gave an awkward smile.“Of, of course I sleep.”“It’s not good to start piling up lies already.”“One shijin is enough. I’ve been sleeping a lot up until now anyway. And my stamina has gone up too, so even if I sleep just half a shijin, I’m totally fine. My inner energy feels full as well.”“Stamina and inner energy are things that can vanish in an instant. If you put blind faith in them, you’ll crash hard. You may look fine because you’re young, but fatigue is steadily piling up in your body. It just feels fine because you can’t see it. Managing yourself is also a skill. And the human body isn’t metal. You can’t melt it down and make it good as new. Once it breaks or malfunctions, it never returns to how it was.”Cang Wuyin spoke firmly.Wei Zhenhe had become too confident because his body ha
