Wandering the Heavens

Chapter 202 Moonlight Blade 23

Only a scream was heard from the treetops in that direction, followed by the dull thud of a heavy object falling to the ground. The shadow lost control and its movements gradually slowed down. Everyone then saw clearly that he was actually a short dwarf. No one knew what he had practiced to increase his speed to such a dazzling level.

Ye Kai was really disappointing. Even though Phantom had lost control and became like this, he still had no way to deal with him. Yu Xian couldn't bear it and simply threw two embroidery needles out, which penetrated into Phantom's brain through his eyes and finally killed him.

Yu Xian attacked three times, using two leaves and two embroidery needles. Everyone was a little confused about what kind of martial arts this person was good at. From the time he appeared in the martial arts world to now, his palm skills, knife skills, sword skills, light skills and the hidden weapon he just demonstrated, each of them was so advanced that it made people despair.

"Master, what happened?" Nangong Ling had just applied the medicine on herself and when she came out she saw two dwarf corpses on the ground.

"Nothing, just an ignorant person came." Yu Xian waved his hand and said, "Fu Hongxue, go get some firewood and burn these two bodies."

"I understand." Fu Hongxue let go of Mingyuexin and turned to walk into the woods to look for firewood.

"Master, why do you want to burn it?" Nangong Ling was a little scared.

"This is the shadow that attacked me in the blacksmith shop before. Even though he is dead now, there is a way to merge him with a living person with high martial arts skills and become an immortal body with thoughts. They call it the Phantom Demon." Yu Xian said, pointing at the dwarf in black.

"Ah! So scary!" Nangong Ling felt goose bumps all over her body.

"What's scary is the kind of person who turns living people into weapons." Yu Xian sighed.

"Then why is he here?" Nangong Ling still had no idea where this thing came from.

"Do you remember the fierce battle on the top of the cliff? At that time, there was a young man following Xiang Yingtian, but he quietly hid away before the war broke out. He and the two dwarfs on the ground were all from the Western Regions. They were making some kind of deal with Xiang Yingtian at that time, but after Xiang Yingtian died, they found the top of Yuntian. And this time their purpose is to capture Mingyuexin. I think they are planning to blackmail Fu Hongxue to do something." Yu Xian guessed.

"It's so complicated!" Nangong Ling felt a headache.

"Don't think too much, kid. Just be happy!" Yu Xian comforted him helplessly.

"Ling'er is not a child!" Nangong Ling retorted unconvinced.

As he was speaking, Fu Hongxue came over carrying a large dead wood, threw it on the ground, and used his palm power to break it into firewood, which he piled on the two corpses. He then collected some flammable dead leaves to cover them, and finally lit them with a tinder.

By the time the two bodies were burned to ashes, the female disciples at the top of Yuntian had already left, and now only Master Yu Xian and his disciples and Fu Hongxue were left.

"Hero, may I ask what Yuntianzhiding wants to do with my husband?" Mingyuexin asked, looking at the gradually dying fire.

"Fu Hongxue entered the martial arts world for revenge, which made many people uneasy. Although Yang Changfeng had a good reputation, his actions actually hurt the interests of many people. They were afraid that Fu Hongxue would become another Yang Changfeng, and Gongzi Yu wanted to use this to target Fu Hongxue in order to gain support and take the position of the leader of the martial arts world." Yu Xian and the others made no secret of what happened before Yang Changfeng's death.

"You...you're talking nonsense!" Ye Kai was the first to refute.

"Do you think that just with a golden plum blossom, you can easily gather more than twenty martial arts masters together to take risks to assassinate the martial arts leader who is highly skilled and prestigious? Everything is mutual!" Yu Xian said coldly.

"Hero, can you tell me what kind of person my father is?" Fu Hongxue asked, suppressing the discomfort in his abdomen.

"He is a very domineering person and it is extremely painful to make friends with him because he will always decide your life in the name of good for you. You do get benefits, but that is not what you really want. To women, he is a god and a bastard." Yu Xian could only give a general idea.

Hearing these words, Fu Hongxue and Ming Yuexin looked at Ye Kai and then at Nangong Ling who was standing behind Yu Xian.

"So, those who attacked my father that night included friends, enemies, and women, right? Even the Master of the Plum Blossom Order was a woman!" Fu Hongxue asked.

"You're right! The world that Yang Changfeng wanted could not be given to him by his friends, followers, and the big and famous forces in the world; Yang Changfeng's romanticism made the women resentful. At this time, only one person needs to stand up, and then people will follow him, such as Xiang Yingtian and Luo Tao." Yu Xian replied patiently.

Fu Hongxue was a little confused at the moment. He had been brought up by Hua Baifeng to avenge his father since he was a child, and now when he heard about the other side of his wise and brave father, he found it difficult to accept it.

"Hero Yang is not that kind of person!" Ye Kai pointed at Yu Xian angrily.

"How do you think you got here? How did Fu Hongxue get here? You, Ye Kai, know that you are Yang Changfeng's son, and your mother is the Demon Cult Princess Hua Baifeng; Fu Hongxue is also Yang Changfeng's son, and his mother is Madam Yang's maid. Do you know why Hao Zhichang was so excited after Hua Baiyun's death? That's because Hua Baiyun had an engagement with him, and later Hua Baiyun took the initiative to cancel it because he had physical contact with Yang Changfeng." Yu Xian was very reluctant to mention the two deceased's past romance.

"So, Hua Baiyun also received the Plum Blossom Golden Order, but he refused to participate out of his love for Yang Changfeng." Mingyuexin seemed to have thought of something.

"Not only that, she must have known the inside story and planned to tip off my father, but she failed. Otherwise, she wouldn't have died so miserably." Fu Hongxue felt a little scared when he thought of the bloody scene.

"Remember this: the reason why gods are gods is that they are always high above and do not interfere in human affairs. Yang Changfeng failed on this point. People in the world worship him as a god, but Yang Changfeng crossed the line." Yu Xian sighed.

"Hero, what should we do next?" Mingyuexin asked.

"Let's go find Zhou Ting! Then find a way to drive Gongzi Yu down, and the world will be peaceful for a while." Yu Xian thought about it.

"Zhou Ting?" Mingyuexin didn't know what Yu Xian wanted to say.

"She is your little sister when you were little, and she left the red flower on top of the sky with your hope for freedom." Yu Xian said as he slapped out the long blade of the Tang sword.

When Yuntianzhiding was first established, Nangong Xie selected four girls, Mingyue, Honghua, Lengxing, and Xuanfeng, as concubines for Gongzi Yu. Later, another flying dragon, Yan Nanfei, was added to handle the affairs of the martial arts world. During this period, Honghua was injured and fell off a cliff during training. Yuntianzhiding thought she was dead and her body was gone. Unexpectedly, she was still alive, but she had lost her memory of being Honghua. Before meeting Yu Xian, she made a living by blackmailing people.

Mingyuexin was still shocked by the information that Zhou Ting was Honghua, but several people were nervously observing their surroundings, thinking that some enemy was coming. Who knew that Yu Xian drew his sword not to kill the enemy, but to use a killing blow to shatter the pile of ashes that had been extinguished but not yet cooled.

"The matter of the Phantom has been resolved. It's time for you to leave. If you can't find the direction and someone comes to cause trouble, just look behind them. It's definitely the right thing to do. Ling'er, let's go!"

After Yu Xian finished speaking, he put away his knife and left with Nangong Ling. He believed that with Zhou Ting's help, the fall of Yuntian Peak was not far away.
