Dozens of pirates rushed forward to tie up Fang Yun and Zhao Wen, while several others restrained Mei Hwa carefully so the girl wouldn’t be hurt.
Fang Yun and his companion could see that the pirates bore facial features similar to Mei Hwa’s. That fact alone made Fang Yun decide to comply for the time being.“Take those two young men and lock them up with the other captives. As for the girl, put her in her own room!” ordered the pirate leader in a language Fang Yun and Zhao Wen had already learned.The two young men were herded into a cabin used to hold other prisoners. Inside, Fang Yun and Zhao Wen saw five merchants they had spoken to earlier in the voyage, now bruised and beaten, clearly for resisting capture.Fang Yun scanned the room, observing the other captives. They came from different lands and races—only two, like himself, were from the mainland of Hu. The rest were from distant corners of the world.Fang Yun gave a faint smileLatest Chapter
Debate
.In a short time, dozens of disciples of the Single Sword Sect lay on the ground, collapsing. Some were groaning in pain, and some were dying with various wounds on their bodies. Feng Yin was slightly surprised by the abilities of the three young men he had initially underestimated. He tried to measure their abilities. But only Zhao Wen and Mei Hwa could be measured, while Fang Yun's strength could not even be felt. "Everyone... atttack!" Feng Yin shouted again. Fang Yun, feeling that Mei Hwa and Zhao Wen could handle hundreds of disciples of the Single Sword Sect, let the two of them fight against them all. Meanwhile, he himself moved to attack Feng Yin. Meanwhile, in the Shadow Spear Sect, a slightly heated debate was taking place. Some sect leaders openly refused the request for assistance submitted by Prince Xiao Yu. Fang Yun and Jian Kung, who were representatives of Prince Xiao Yu, were temporarily listening silently to the debate that was taking place. Wan Fenli, who had
The Single Sword Sect's Assault
The old man, who was the leader of the Single Sword Sect, chuckled heartily. The thought of soon possessing the Sky Sword made him unable to control his mind. "Soon, the Single Sword Sect will stand at the very top among all the other sects!" he shouted loudly. The Single Sword Sect was one of the great orthodox sects standing in the Yuan Empire. The sect was led by Feng Yin, who was also one of the 10 strongest martial artists in the Yuan Empire. Although orthodox, Feng Yin had a great ambition to be recognized as the greatest martial artist of all. And he felt that the Sky Sword was one option to realize his desire. All this time, Feng Yin was still waiting for an opportunity to get the heirloom sword because he had not seen any signs of its appearance. And that night, he saw for himself the bright bluish light emitted by the Sky Sword. He was very sure of it because only the Sky Sword had such a bright bluish aura. Towards evening, Fang Yun and Mei Hwa returned to their traini
Training and a Threatening Arrival
“What other duty? Isn’t your task here simply to take the Fire Sword and defeat the Dark King?” Wan Fenli frowned.Fang Yun glanced at Mei Hwa for a moment before answering Wan Fenli’s question.“First, I will help Mei Hwa reclaim her father’s throne, which was seized by Emperor Yan Yuan, Elder. Perhaps you already know about that incident,” Fang Yun said.Wan Fenli nodded. “So you are the daughter of Emperor Feng Yu?”“That is correct, Elder. Right now my brother is gathering forces to take back the throne Emperor Yan Yuan stole,” Mei Hwa replied softly.“Tomorrow I want to see how well you command the Heavenly Sword,” Wan Fenli said. “For now, rest.”The three young people bowed their heads in agreement.The next morning they left the lodge. The Heavenly Sword Sect was already buzzing with its usual activity—disciples going about their training and duties.The three were slightly surprised. Although the sect sat high on the mountain, it had a considerable number of disciples—and the
Wan Fenli
Fang Yun’s feelings were right. Two women moved swiftly through the forest along the slopes of Mount Gobi. Their speed was so great that it seemed their feet never touched the ground.Fang Yun, Mei Hwa, and Zhao Wen had prepared themselves for any possible situation. If anyone tried to stop them from climbing the mountain—just like what had happened before—then battle would be their last resort.“Be ready!” Fang Yun warned as the two women drew near.Moments later, the two women, who appeared to be in their thirties, stopped before them.“Are you two here to prevent us from climbing this mountain?” Mei Hwa asked coldly.“Please, don’t misunderstand. We came to welcome you,” one of the women replied gently.“I am Lin Yin, and this is Xiu Lie. We were sent by Master Wan to escort you,” said Lin Yin.Fang Yun and his companions exchanged glances. “How could she possibly know that we were coming? We’ve never been here before,” he asked.“Master Wan will explain that herself. I don’t know
Plan to Strike the Enemy’s Stronghold
“Advisor Li, if we allow this to continue, they’ll win the sympathy of the people. In time, the citizens themselves will rise in rebellion.” Emperor Yan Yuan’s face darkened with frustration toward his advisor, Li Feng. He felt that his minister was underestimating the threat posed by Prince Xiao Yu’s insurrection.“Your Majesty,” Li Feng replied confidently, “our empire commands vast armies and superior weaponry. I’m certain the common people wouldn’t dare rebel against you.”“What concerns me,” he continued, lowering his tone, “is if Prince Xiao Yu and his supporters manage to sway the soldiers the way they recently did.”“So what do you suggest I do?”Li Feng smiled faintly. “Your Majesty need not trouble yourself. Allow me to deal with this matter personally.”That night, Prince Xiao Yu decided to lead his few hundred men to Lin Xai’s large estate. It was the most strategic and nearby refuge available. The village surrounding Lin Xai’s residence was one of the key strongholds of h
Trapping the Traitors
Fang Yun merely smiled faintly and said nothing in response to Wang Dong’s question.“Why did you tell them our base was beyond the mountain?” Wang Dong pressed.“I’ve already told you—just wait and see. You’ll understand when my plan unfolds.” Fang Yun’s lips curled into a mysterious grin as he gestured toward two horses tied farther away from the rest of the herd.“Those horses hold the key,” he murmured, then lay down on the grass, folding his hands beneath his head as a pillow.“I still don’t understand what you’re planning,” Wang Dong said after a long pause, still trying to piece together Fang Yun’s scheme.“Enough for tonight. The night grows darker—let’s rest,” Fang Yun replied, closing his eyes.Wang Dong frowned, clearly unsatisfied with the vague response, but he said nothing more. With a weary sigh, he too lay beside Fang Yun and eventually drifted into sleep.As midnight approached, two soldiers quietly rose from their slumber. Their eyes darted toward Fang Yun and Wang D
