Emperor of the Mysterious Heavens

Chapter 44: Chapter 015 The Injury of Dugu Sword King

The next day, before dawn, in the north of Yanjing.

"Giddyap!"

Yan Chuan led a group of people and once again came to the top of a mountain.

"Whoa!"

With a pull of the reins, everyone stopped immediately.

Beside Yan Chuan, there was one more person this time. Crown Prince Yan Wudi!

Huo Guang and Liu Jin reined in their horses behind. Leaving Yan Chuan and Yan Wudi, they looked at Yanjing shrouded in darkness in the distance.

"Uncle Wang's chess way is truly astonishing. News came from Starry Mountain Villa that three chess kings have already spat blood while watching chess!" Yan Wudi sighed deeply.

"Them? Their realms haven't reached. Forcing themselves to comprehend that game of chess naturally causes great damage to their minds! Moreover, they put their minds into Grand Tutor Yi Feng's white pieces. Once my black pieces start killing, they naturally feel the same. They are exhausted mentally by my moves!" Yan Chuan said faintly.

"Last night, I have already witnessed Uncle Wang's chess way. I don't know why Uncle Wang called me here early in the morning. What's the matter?" Yan Wudi asked in confusion.

"Wait a moment and let you see a scene!" Yan Chuan said solemnly.

"A scene? What scene?" Yan Wudi didn't understand.

"It will be dawn soon. You will know soon!" Yan Chuan shook his head and didn't say.

"All right!" Yan Wudi nodded helplessly.

"Let me ask you. On that day at the drill ground, when I captured the representatives of the four countries, besides Changqing and them being in the sky, were you and King Dugu Sword also there?" Yan Chuan asked.

"Uh? How does Uncle Wang know?" Yan Wudi was slightly surprised.

Could it be that Yan Chuan discovered it? But at that time, he didn't show up at all. How could he discover it?

Yan Chuan 微微一笑 and said, "As long as it's King Dugu Sword!"

"What does Uncle Wang mean?"

"Why is King Dugu Sword staying in Yanjing?" Yan Chuan asked.

"This..." Yan Wudi frowned slightly, not knowing whether he should say it.

"On that day in the feng shui formation, King Dugu Sword chased and killed a feng shui master with his sword. At that time, he shouted 'Poison Master'. The Poison Master didn't die. The Poison Master is in Yanjing, right!" Yan Chuan asked.

"Ah? How do you know?" Yan Wudi was surprised.

"This Poison Master is a scourge!" Yan Chuan said with a gloomy face.

"Uncle Wang, how do you know?"

"I don't know where the Poison Master is. But these days, my teacher has been looking for him but can't find his whereabouts. Does Uncle Wang know where the Poison Master is?" Yan Wudi said solemnly.

"Not clear!" Yan Chuan shook his head.

"Alas!" Yan Wudi sighed slightly.

Just at this moment, suddenly a touch of dawn appeared in the east, instantly cutting through the void and shining in all directions.

"The sun is coming out!" Yan Wudi said.

"Look at Yanjing." Yan Chuan called out.

With a trace of curiosity, Yan Wudi looked in the direction of Yanjing.

In the early morning, Yanjing was shrouded in a light mist. It was like a fairyland.

The sunlight quickly dispersed the darkness and penetrated the mist in the city. Under the sunlight, in the mist, a hazy green light faintly flashed.

The green light was hazy, but it appeared for a very short time. In just a few breaths, the green light disappeared.

"What's that?" Yan Wudi asked in confusion.

"Did you see it? That green light covering Yanjing!" Yan Chuan said in a solemn tone.

"Yes, I saw it. What is it? I've never seen it before." Yan Wudi asked in confusion.

"That is poisonous light!" Yan Chuan said in a solemn tone.

"Poisonous light?" Yan Wudi didn't understand.

"Recently in Yanjing, are there more and more sick people?" Yan Chuan asked.

"Yes, I've heard. Now all the large and small medical clinics are overcrowded! No one knows what's going on!" Yan Wudi immediately looked at Yan Chuan.

"This is a feng shui formation. Someone has set up this feng shui formation in Yanjing and is poisoning the entire Yanjing!" Yan Chuan said in a solemn tone.

"The entire Yanjing?"

"Yes, the entire Yanjing. Feng shui poison is different from normal drug poison. Some feng shui poisons have life. Now this poison is still in the growth stage. Once it matures, it will empty Yanjing!" Yan Chuan said in a solemn tone.

"Empty Yanjing? Wh... What does that mean?" Yan Wudi seemed to have guessed something.

"Two million people in Yanjing will be emptied overnight and all will be poisoned to death! Not a single one will be left!" Yan Chuan said in a solemn tone.

"Ah?" Yan Wudi was surprised.

"I think you have already guessed it. This should be the work of that Poison Master!" Yan Chuan said coldly.

"Why did he do this?" Yan Wudi said with an ugly expression.

"I think that Poison Master should be seriously injured. He wants to poison all the people in Yanjing and extract a million wronged souls to heal his injuries!"

"Heal his injuries? I don't understand. But Uncle Wang, this is two million lives. They are all the people of our Great Yan. Since you have already seen the clue, there should be a way to solve it, right?" Yan Wudi said anxiously.

"There is a way. But it needs the cooperation of King Dugu Sword. Take me to see King Dugu Sword. Just say that I have a way to find the Poison Master!" Yan Chuan said in a solemn tone.

Before Yan Wudi could speak, suddenly a voice came from the air.

"You have a way to find the Poison Master?" There was a sense of urgency in the voice.

"Click! Click! Click!"

A group of Brocade Army soldiers quickly set up their bows and arrows and aimed at the sky.

Yan Chuan gently waved his hand to stop the archers.

In the high sky, King Dugu Sword was carrying a long sword on his back and slowly descended from the air.

"Teacher!" Yan Wudi was surprised.

"King Dugu Sword, are you following us?" Yan Chuan said coldly.

"My disciple went out before dawn. Naturally, I have to follow and see. But what did you mean by what you said just now? Can you find the Poison Master?" King Dugu Sword asked eagerly.

Yan Chuan stared coldly at King Dugu Sword for a while and nodded.

"How to find him?" King Dugu Sword's face lit up and he said.

Yan Chuan dismounted.

Everyone dismounted together.

"Liu Jin, boil tea!" Yan Chuan said.

"Yes!" Liu Jin immediately responded.

Taking out the space scroll, taking out tables and chairs and putting them in place, and quickly boiling tea with a small stove.

Huo Guang commanded the soldiers to retreat to one side.

"Since you are here, it saves me from looking for you. Sit down!" Yan Chuan said.

"Um!" King Dugu Sword nodded.

Yan Wudi also sat down.

Soon, Liu Jin boiled the tea and poured tea for the three of them.

"I want to know why you want to kill the Poison Master!" Yan Chuan said in a solemn tone.

"Um? Why are you asking this?" King Dugu Sword frowned.

"If it were someone else, I wouldn't bother to ask. But I have to figure out this Poison Master clearly. That day he was with True Lord Black Feather. Obviously they are in the same group. It is rumored that True Lord Black Feather is one of the murderers who harmed my parents. How do I know if the Poison Master is? I may have a grudge against him. According to my personal principle, I need to take revenge myself! So I have to figure it out. At least you have to persuade me to let you deal with him!" Yan Chuan said in a solemn tone.

"Are you sure you can find the Poison Master?" King Dugu Sword was surprised.

Yan Chuan's tone was full of certainty, which had to make King Dugu Sword take it seriously.

"It depends on you!" Yan Chuan smiled as he drank tea.

"Well! There's nothing to hide about this matter!" King Dugu Sword showed a wry smile.

"I'd like to hear the details!" Yan Chuan nodded.

"Two hundred years ago, at that time, I walked around the world with my sword, looking for strong people in the world to hone my swordsmanship. Once I 越级 killed a fierce demon. But I also almost died in that battle. Seriously injured, I flew away from the scene and finally fainted in a valley!" King Dugu Sword recalled.

"That time was the worst time in my life. There were many mountain beasts in the forest. If it weren't for her, I might have already been devoured by the beasts!"

"Her?" Yan Chuan asked.

"She is the daughter of the head of Qianye Sect. She found me and took good care of me. I still remember that it was a valley full of lilies. When I woke up, the first sentence she asked me was 'Are you hungry?'" King Dugu Sword recalled with a slight smile on his lips.

"In the half year of recuperating there, she came to take care of me attentively every day. Although I knew her feelings, at that time, my competitive spirit was too strong. After recovering from my injury, I left with my sword. I wanted to continue to challenge strong people from all over and hone my swordsmanship!"

"Just left like that? What about her?" Yan Wudi asked in confusion.

"Heh, I told her that lilies will accompany her all the time on my behalf. Seeing lilies is like seeing me. And we agreed that I would go to see her once every five years!" King Dugu Sword's tone became a little awkward. He clenched his fist as if full of regret.

"Later?"

"Later, I went to see her as promised. Every five years, I went once. She was also very silly and kept waiting for me. Kept waiting for me. Until twenty years ago..." King Dugu Sword trembled all over. His eyes were even filled with bloodshot and slightly moist.

"What happened twenty years ago?"

"Twenty years ago, it should have been time for me to see her. But because of a long-awaited duel, I was delayed for half a year. Half a year later, when I arrived at Qianye Sect again..." King Dugu Sword couldn't control his emotions for a moment. Tears welled up slightly.

"What happened to Qianye Sect?"

"Everyone in Qianye Sect was slaughtered. Not a single one was left. And she, she was nailed to death on the gate of Qianye Sect! Before dying, she was still holding a bunch of lilies tightly in her hand!" King Dugu Sword crushed the teacup in his hand. His face was full of pain. Tears slid down his eyes.

"You don't cherish when you're alive. Only when you're dead do you realize its preciousness!" Yan Chuan sighed slightly.

"I later learned that in the half year when I was late, she stood at the mountain gate every day, looking at the lilies while waiting for me. On the day when Qianye Sect was destroyed, she was waiting for me while holding lilies. Her eyes were full of expectation and her heart was filled with resentment. But I... If I hadn't gone to that duel, this wouldn't have happened!" King Dugu Sword trembled violently and couldn't stop crying.

Both Yan Chuan and Yan Wudi were silent. Looking at the proud King Dugu Sword shedding tears at this moment, the two didn't look down on him at all. Instead, they just felt the same way.

"It's the Poison Master?" Yan Wudi said angrily.

"Yes. On that day, the one who led the destruction of Qianye Sect was the Poison Master. Ten years later, I have already killed all the others. Only the Poison Master is left. This enmity is irreconcilable!" King Dugu Sword roared.

"You chased and killed the Poison Master for another ten years?"

"Yes. I must avenge this enmity. If you can help me find him, I can do one thing for you with all my strength!" King Dugu Sword said in a solemn tone.

"Okay. I will help you find the Poison Master. I don't want you to do anything else. As for this nephew of mine, you should teach him well and guide him wholeheartedly!" Yan Chuan said in a solemn tone.

"Uncle, Uncle Wang?" Yan Wudi looked at Yan Chuan in surprise.

"Okay! I will let Wudi inherit the secret skills that are not passed on in the Dugu family!" King Dugu Sword nodded affirmatively.
