Hyejin, a small town located in the western part of Longhai Continent, sits between two important sects ruling the continent. On one side is Hua Shan Mountain, where the famous Hua Shan Sect was founded.

On the other side, there was the Gobi Desert, where the Gobi Desert Sect was founded. These two sects were part of the Five Star Sect Alliance of the white school that was the most famous in the Wriston Empire.

Despite its small size, the city of Hyejin is always bustling with the hustle and bustle of passing merchants, fighters, and soldiers at war.

Hyejin City became an important stopover for those going to the Central Plains, or from the south of the continent, where the capital city of Daqi was located, to the west, as well as to other lands outside the Wriston Empire.

The Wriston Empire itself was in the south of the continent, adjacent to the vast Tian Yu Ocean. By then, it was already evening, marking the beginning of the Xu Shi period, which was between 7 p.m. and 9 p.m.

    The three rough-faced men sitting at the corner table were members of the black sect, while the other three young men sitting at the opposite table were disciples of the Hua Shan Sword Sect.Hearing the demeaning words of the Gobi Desert Sect's youngest girl, one of the black cult men fingered the hilt of his machete with trembling hands.His name was Guo Sheng, the youngest disciple of the Western Ufuk Sun Sect. But a comrade held him back, glancing at the three Hua Shan Sect youths.His eyes seemed to say, "We are outnumbered. The five of them plus the three Hua Shan Sect alliances!"Guo Sheng then removed his hand from the hilt of the machete. But that didn't stop him from reprimanding the Gobi Desert Sect's young girl."What do you mean by saying that, miss?" asked Guo Sheng as he stood up. He revealed a face that looked less than pleased.Ever since they entered the hall, he had been holding back, due to the behavior of the Gobi Desert Sect disciples who always covered their nose

    Knock - knock - knock!Hearing the young Taoist's words, Ying Yue instantly flashed towards the young Taoist. Her sword turned into white light. She intended to cut off the young Taoist's ear."Watch out for sword attacks,""Young priest... you should leave, don't interfere."The three black sect members were wide-eyed and voiceless, as swords flashed towards the Taoist's ears. Their faces were deathly pale, feeling sorry that the priest was defending them, yet likely to be affected by the actions of the white sect's vicious girl - Ying Yue.Again the question hangs. Would the young Taoist's ears be cut off because of Ying Yue's sword?TRANG!The sound of weapons clashing could be heard filling the atmosphere in the Eastern Seasonal Wind Terrace Restaurant.Following afterward, the sound of a female scream could be heard groaning. Ying Yue, the youngest girl of the Gobi Desert Sect's group of disciples, was knocked back several spears, due to the impact of her sword with a strange wea

    Actually, Mei Lian and the three Gobi Desert Sect girls who were Yin Yue's seniors were well aware that this young Taoist's figure was extremely strange. He was no more than fifteen or at most sixteen years old.However, he had an extremely high cultivation level, which was already a sign that the little priest was not to be underestimated.However, Yin Yue's heated manner of bringing up the great name of the Gobi Desert Sect made Senior Mei Lian's face turn ugly. She then said in a cold tone of voice,"Little Lord Priest, do you intend to embarrass our Gobi Desert Sect? Please state your name, and who your teacher is... so that in the future our Gobi Desert Sect can pay a visit to your Sect while exchanging a few words!"Despite speaking with martial arts manners, Mei Lian's tone was cold.In the ancient era, people upheld traditional values and safeguarded their reputation.Therefore, Mei Lian's previous words could be interpreted to mean that they planned to seek out the Taoist sec

  • The Secret of The Demonic Artifact   Dragon Inn - PART I.

    In the middle of a lush pine forest, right on the boundary between the green and arid life of the Gobi Desert, there were four human figures sitting in a wooden gazebo, painted a striking red color, as well as the roof.Thus, the beauty of the gazebo creates a strong contrast with the green of the pine trees around it.The gazebo itself is indeed provided in several places in this area for travelers to just sit down to unwind, after exploring the Pine Forest.It was almost morning and no snow had fallen. The sun was not yet visible, but the sky was already yellow in the East.In this desert borderland, snow is rare, given its proximity to dry, sandy soil where temperatures are very high during the day.However, on that morning, the air was bitterly cold, an effect of the cold coming in from the Central plains, as well as the mountain's extreme temperatures, where nighttime temperatures can drop to below zero."Brother little priest," Guo Sheng said in a trembling voice,"Thank you for

    Soon, the four of them embarked on a new adventure, walking together through the dense pine forest for days on end until they reached rocky ground, a sign that they had entered the Gobi Desert.Along the way, they interacted several times with people living in no less than two small villages.To Eadric Rong's surprise, these so-called cultists weren't as bad as he thought. They were helping some villagers who were being harassed by petty robbers.When Eadric Rong asked him why he, as a cult member, would want to help the villagers who had fallen into misfortune, Sun Qiang's answer was short: "I don't like those vicious robbers. They look for opponents who aren't worth it."They prefer to live their own lives, not meddling in other people's affairs. However, if anyone dares to disturb their peace, they will turn evil and vicious.+++Night had fallen, and it was very quiet in the Gobi Desert. There was only one place to rest, a nondescript four-story building.The light of the lanterns

  • The Secret of The Demonic Artifact   Dragon Inn - Part III.

    Sun Qiang, who had long been curious about Eadric Rong's Cultivation realm since they were in Hyejin City, viewed this situation as an opportunity to fish for information. With an innocent-looking face, he asked,"Seeing that this little brother of ours didn't seem surprised to hear about the Cultivation Level of Fear Nun in the Zircon Tortoise Swordsman realm, I became curious. Is our little brother's Cultivation Level also in the same realm as Nun Fear's?"Despite his apparent innocence, Sun Qiang was actually a little displeased. Eadric Rong's casual attitude and vagueness made him feel as if his cultivation realm was already high, on par with the Fear Nun.Thus, apart from seeking information, Sun Qiang's question was also meant to satirize Eadric Rong.However, who would have thought, the ordinary-looking Minor Priest replied firmly and casually,"How could Brother Sun Qiang guess that my Cultivation realm is at the Zircon Tortoise Swordsman Level?" Eadric Rong asked back, with a

    Under the softly reflecting moonlight and the Gobi Desert's night breeze that howled like huge waves hitting the shore, two figures moved quickly with caution, with the one behind deliberately keeping a distance.The two figures shot out with such incredible speed that they appeared to be moving shadows. Before a single hio had finished burning, they had left the Dragon Inn, fifty li away.DUAR!In the distance, there was a faint sound of explosions in the sky. A firecracker shot out from the west, creating a huge firework explosion that formed the Morning Star, coloring the horizon with a dazzling glow."Is that the secret logo of the Gobi Desert Sect?" thought Eadric Rong, while running at high speed, in sync with the fast pace of the Fear Nun in front of him."What's going on with this white sect? Why did they turn on the alarm to summon all their members?" thought Eadric Rong, his curiosity deepening.Meanwhile, in the distance came the sound of weapons clanging, signaling that a

    However, who would have thought, this Fear nun was much slicker than they thought.With a cold snort, she said, her tone of voice sounding sneering and filled with mockery."Who says this news will be heard by the people of the Martial World? In this desert, there are only us from the Gobi Desert sect, while you two, those perverted demons, will die at my hands!""So, please tell me... who will carry the news to the outside world?" Nun Fear's eyes lit up, her gaze flickering like burning embers.The nun Fear, since her childhood, has had a bleak background that made her deeply hate people of the black sect. Her two parents were killed in a battle, leaving her alone and living in misery.However, fate changed when a Nun from the Gobi Desert Sect found her in a near-death condition and brought her to the Gobi Desert Sect. There, little Fear was trained to become a martial arts expert.Over time, when her knowledge had reached a high level, the Fear Nun became famous for her ruthlessness

    The air around him vibrated, forming a pattern perceptible only to those sensitive to spiritual power.REST!Rong Guo hissed softly, his eyes shining sharply, full of concentration. The spiritual energy wave he released now imprisoned the red dragon more tightly, making the magical creature writhe in pain, as if burning from within.The dragon roared, trying to break free from the tightening spiritual prison, but in vain. The harder it struggled, the stronger the spiritual energy Rong Guo channeled became, thickening the illusionary prison that trapped the dragon."DUAR!"The red dragon’s final roar thundered throughout the hall, followed by a tremendous explosion.Unable to resist the power pressing on it, the dragon’s body shattered into pieces, exploding into shards of light that scattered in all directions before vanishing entirely."WUUT!"Suddenly, a peachwood staff appeared in Rong Guo’s hand, as if conjured from thin air.The long red ribbon that had gracefully wrapped the sta

    “Kill that girl! She’s a spy!” another shouted, his voice trembling with fear.State Teacher Xue Yinggui, who had sensed something strange from the start, moved faster than anyone else.In an instant, he stood before the strange girl, blocking her with astonishing speed. His palms opened wide, and from inside his robe, hundreds of silver needles shot out with deadly precision, raining down on the girl’s body.The State Teacher, a cultivator from the Green Valley Sect, was famous for his expertise in secret weapons. Each needle was soaked in deadly poison.In just a moment, the needles struck the girl’s body with perfect precision. She flinched, her eyes wide for a moment before her body collapsed lifelessly to the floor.But the terrifying red dragon... who could stop it? While the Emperor and Empress still seemed entranced, trapped in the girl’s magic, they could only watch helplessly as the illusory dragon floated closer, preparing to open its mouth and unleash a flame ready to engu

    It was common knowledge in the palace and throughout the capital that nothing in this land was beyond purchase. Whatever happened behind the scenes quickly became the talk of the town.The incident last night, when Crown Prince Su Qingheng met the Dragon Priest—the number one genius—spread like wildfire throughout the palace.The State Teacher, who was late in approaching Rong Guo, the genius stealing the spotlight, clearly felt humiliated.In his intrigue-filled mind, as someone from the Jianghu (martial world), the State Teacher did not want any Jianghu expert to side with Crown Prince Su Qingheng.However, his negligence in not taking strategic steps to approach Rong Guo made his heart burn hotter.Since last night, his face had been gloomy, as if bearing shame and disappointment.Everyone knew the State Teacher favored Ninth Prince Su Weizhao as the successor to the throne. Naturally, the reason was not far from personal ties.Su Weizhao was his martial arts disciple, and in his e

  • Tension in the Golden Dragon Hall.

    State Teacher Xue Yinggui still appeared vigorous, with a dignified face resembling that of a man in his forties.However, in reality, the State Teacher was nearing seventy years old. Nonetheless, his spirit and sharp eyes still radiated a strength unweathered by age.His steady footsteps echoed through the Golden Dragon Hall as he was the first to enter the room, drawing the attention of everyone present.Every pair of eyes fixed on him, watching every movement and expression. In the silence that followed, the young champions immediately stood and saluted, bowing their heads with sincere respect.Yet, Xue Yinggui seemed undisturbed by all this. His gaze calmly swept across the hall, as if searching for someone. His sharp eyes stopped on the simple figure of the young man, Rong Guo.The Taoist attire worn by Rong Guo added to his calm and modest impression, though a great power was hidden behind his appearance.The State Teacher's gaze seemed piercing, as if trying to penetrate the de

  • The Hall of the Golden Dragon.

    "Hand over your weapons, Master Tao," the warrior leader ordered in a stern tone, halting Eadric Rong's steps.Although Eadric Rong was already recognized as a young Dragon genius, with the latest nickname of the esteemed Dragon Priest, the strict rules of the palace prohibiting anyone from carrying weapons still had to be obeyed by him."I have no weapons," Eadric Rong replied in a calm, yet confident voice."Your storage ring?" the soldier asked again, confirming."Not wearing a spatial ring," said Eadric Rong, as he raised both hands, showing ten empty fingers without rings.Both hands were clean, with no rings indicating the storage of weapons. Thus, Eadric Rong was cleared to enter the palace."Please come in, Taoist Master. Please forgive us if we have inconvenienced you," the head guard said as he bowed respectfully, showing great appreciation.The dozen spears that had locked the gate were slowly lifted, and the majestic gate opened.Eadric Rong walked quietly through the long

    Eadric Rong frowned, thinking for a moment before finally saying in an undeniable tone."He came with me. So, he is my man. It's fine if he comes and listens to the conversation later. I entrust all my activities to this Mr. Ouyang. He's like a manager to me," Eadric Rong said firmly, though he was actually lying to protect Ouyang Fai.Although that statement was not entirely true, Ouyang Fai felt an unexpected warmth creeping into his heart. They had only just gotten acquainted, yet their relationship felt so close, as if they had become old friends who already understood each other.Inside a private room heavily guarded by trained soldiers, Eadric Rong stepped in, followed by the Crown Prince who still maintained his royal aura. However, Ouyang Fai was only allowed to wait at the door, with the soldiers watching his every move closely."I'll be fine," Eadric Rong whispered, his voice soft but full of conviction, when he saw the anxious look on Ouyang Fai's face.Ouyang Fai nodded sl

  • Crown Prince.

    Eadric Rong and Ouyang Fai were enjoying tea at the Chrysanthemum Tea House, a place where the calm and peaceful atmosphere was always the main attraction.Among the fragrant tea smoke, the music of Guzheng and Pipa sounded softly, played by opera girls with melodious voices and charming faces.The harmonious sound of the strings complemented the atmosphere, making every sip of tea more enjoyable. However, the cozy silence was suddenly broken by an unexpected commotion."The Crown Prince enters the hall! All bow and salute!" a guard shouted, his voice bouncing between the walls of the hall, as if echoing in the ears of everyone present.The clomping of soldiers' feet in iron boots accompanied the order, followed by the clatter of armor rubbing together.The originally calm atmosphere had now turned tense. Even the musician girls who had previously looked elegant with their smiles suddenly stopped their music and immediately bowed down, their faces pale with fear.The visitors, though

    The soldier also announced in a stern tone, his voice no less loud than the man in the red robe."After the Young Dragon ranking list is issued by the Qingxue party, the Emperor cordially invites all young geniuses, ranked first to ten, to attend a banquet in the palace. On that occasion, the grand prize will be handed over directly by His Majesty!"Eadric Rong, who was already seated in the invited guest seat, not far from Ouyang Fai, returned his gaze to his new friend.He felt curious, wanting to know more about the organization that had just been mentioned. In a low voice, he asked Ouyang Fai who sat beside him, his voice barely audible in the din of the crowd."Brother Ouyang, what exactly is the Qingxue Organization?" asked Eadric Rong, his eyes narrowing slightly, indicating how seriously he wanted to know.Ouyang Fai smiled slightly, his eyes twinkling as if he was enjoying the moment of sharing his knowledge."Qingxue Peak, a secret organization located on the highest peak of

  • Hundred Swords, One Victor.

    However, in the face of such ferocity, Eadric Rong remained calm, even looking like an immovable iceberg. With a subtle yet determined gesture, he pulled out the rombengan sword from the umbrella he always carried with him."Ferris Wheel Sword!" he exclaimed, with a tone that echoed throughout the arena.In an instant, an enormous energy containing the power of Sword Intention shot out from the sword sweep in Eadric Rong's hand.The energy seemed to split the air, forming a giant screen that emitted a deadly aura. From that screen, a hundred shadow swords were created, shooting out at lightning speed.Some of the swords formed a solid fortress of defense, while others attacked relentlessly, piercing the air with a loud roar, targeting the sweeping waves of the Ocean Rattling Fan launched by Bao Xuan.TRANG - TRANG! The sound of the clash rang out loudly, like the clanking of metals engaged in a deadly battle.Bao Xuan tried to shield himself with his fan, but the hundred sword energie
