System: I Can Open Martial Arts Chests-Chapter 102 - 84: Hearing of the Heavenfiend Again
This answer was not too surprising for Chu Qing.
After all, when he heard that little blacksmith explain earlier, he already knew of this Third Master of Divine Blade Hall.
It’s nothing more than not being able to easily convict; it requires further corroboration.
Now that Jiang Divine Saber personally said that person is Qi Guan, there shouldn’t be any doubt about this person’s identity.
However, if there was a surprise, it would be that he might have underestimated this Cloud Capturing Hand.
He actually managed to steal the Chaotic God Saber right under the noses of himself, Cao Qiupu, and others.
The Big Master couldn’t seem to believe it and shook his head repeatedly:
"No, no! Impossible... If you are the old Hall Master, then who is inside the Divine Blade Hall now?
"Why would the Third Master do such a thing? Furthermore, how does he have the ability to keep you locked up here?"
"As for the inside story, I dare to say it, do you dare to listen?"
Jiang Divine Saber’s voice carried a hint of gloom and grimness.
"I..."
The Big Master was stunned, suddenly glanced at Chu Qing, and with a smile, said:
"I am nearly a dead man now, what is there to fear hearing?"
"Oh?"
Jiang Divine Saber seemed interested:
"So, these two youngsters came to kill you? You finally met your retribution...
"I advised you long ago, as a martial artist, even if you don’t redress injustice for the people, you shouldn’t massacre wantonly, otherwise, one day someone will be unable to stand it and come to reckon with you."
"You are right..."
The Big Master looked as if he had lost his dearest relatives: "But this one slaughtered all four hundred people in my Yinfeng Stronghold just for one penny..."
"For one penny?"
Jiang Divine Saber was also somewhat stunned.
"What does that matter to you."
Chu Qing spoke calmly.
"Interesting."
Jiang Divine Saber suddenly burst into laughter:
"Youngster, you kill for money? If I were to give you money, would you be willing to help me kill someone?"
Chu Qing asked:
"Who?"
"Pei Wuji of the Heavenly Evil Sect!"
[Mission Triggered: Assassinate Pei Wuji!]
[Do you accept?]
Chu Qing silently looked at the prompt that appeared, but his heart quivered slightly.
Heavenly Evil Sect... again with the Heavenly Evil Sect!
Indeed, he should have thought of this earlier.
The Blood God Pill, such an extremely cruel thing, aligns with Heavenly Evil Sect’s usual style.
Chu Yan’s Blood Demon Scripture is of the same ilk as this.
Fortunately, Chu Yan did not obtain the Blood God Pill; otherwise, that battle that night might not have gone so smoothly.
He thought to himself, but then asked Out loud:
"Qi Guan kept you here because of the Heavenly Evil Sect?"
Upon hearing him not puzzled by the words ’Heavenly Evil Sect,’ Jiang Divine Saber suddenly got excited:
"You... you know the Heavenly Evil Sect!?"
If unknown, details would have been asked; Chu Qing’s words clearly demonstrated an understanding of the Heavenly Evil Sect.
"I’ve heard a little."
Chu Qing said calmly:
"Now, can Hall Master Jiang explain the ins and outs of this matter to me?
"I will consider it to see if I accept your deal."
"Hahahaha!!"
Once again, Jiang Divine Saber laughed heartily:
"Very well, listen carefully...
"This happened three years ago. One day, a man in black suddenly sought me out."
The timing matched.
Three years ago, Luoyu Hall arrived at Celestial Dance City.
Three years ago, the Heavenly Evil Sect also sought out the Divine Blade Hall.
Jiang Divine Saber said the person who found him claimed to be Pei Wuji and told him that he was here to make Divine Blade Hall submit to the Heavenly Evil Sect.
Jiang Divine Saber, being arrogant, indeed founded the Divine Blade Hall at twenty-five years old.
With forty years of martial world’s trials, the pride in his bones would not allow him to be subordinate to others.
Even though Pei Wuji’s conditions were very tempting, Jiang Divine Saber resolutely refused.
This led to both having a big disagreement and a fierce fight.
"That person’s martial arts were exceptional, employing an extremely formidable Demon Skill.
"Caught off guard, I fell to his insidious ways and was utterly defeated..."
As Jiang Divine Saber spoke of this, his voice lowered, seemingly feeling ashamed.
Chu Qing curled his lips; defeated is defeated, yet claiming to be caught off guard...
"However, he did not kill me. Instead, right in front of me, he reached out and kneaded his own face. His appearance began to change as he manipulated his five fingers.
"In less than a quarter-hour, he had transformed into my appearance!!"
Jiang Divine Saber’s voice was hoarse:
"The art of disguise is common in the martial world, but none has reached such a remarkable level.
"I thought, after stealing my identity, he would take my life.
"But unexpectedly... the reason he found me wasn’t for the Divine Blade Hall.
"It was for something else."
"What thing?"
The Big Master was already enthralled, couldn’t help but ask.
Jiang Divine Saber slowly uttered three words:
"God’s Tears Iron."
Chu Qing glanced at Gentle and saw her eyes were also filled with confusion.
Neither of them had ever heard of this.
However, at the instant he heard those three words, Chu Qing thought of the Chaotic God Saber.
The young blacksmith who wielded the Chaotic God Saber once said.
The material they used to forge the Chaotic God Saber was very peculiar.
And on those cave murals, there were also depictions of smelting iron...
Could these things really be connected?
His mind was stormed with thoughts, yet he remained calm:
"What is that?"
"You younger ones are truly ignorant."
Jiang Divine Saber spoke in a tone of old-fashioned aplomb:
"God’s Tears Iron is one of the ’Nine Treasures of Heaven and Earth,’ hmm, you youngsters probably don’t even know what the Nine Treasures of Heaven and Earth are...
"To put it this way, the so-called ’Phoenix Tree Divine Wood,’ on which fine birds choose to perch, is one of the Nine Treasures of Heaven and Earth.
