"The Young Master invited both the Black and White Swords? In that case, I don't care if our opponent is some new overlord from the South. We'd have the confidence to kill him, even if he were a Sword Emperor."
"Exactly. With the Black and White Swords acting with us, we can kill anyone."
"Only someone like the Young Master and the Lord could summon the Black and White Swords. They've spent years atop Sky-Scraping Ridge, and this is their first time descending the mountain."
The group of people before Wu Wo buzzed with excitement, all of them pleased.
Wu Wo waved his hand. "Act according to the plan."
"Yes, sir." These people hailed from all corners of the country, but each one owed a debt to Ghost Valley and followed its commands without question. They dispersed.
Wu Wo turned his head to look at his father, Wu Dao. "Father, are you satisfied with my arrangements?"
Wu Dao offered a slight smile. He might not be a match for Wu Fa, but so what? He had this son. In his eyes, the leadership of Ghost Valley should belong to his line.
He voiced his satisfaction, "Having a son like you is my greatest fortune. I had long since abandoned my ambition to compete with Wu Fa for control of the Horizontal Sect. But because of you, my son, that ambition has been rekindled. You excel in both civil and martial pursuits and have shown breathtaking talent since you were a child.
"Heh, Wu Fa's daughter is no match for you. All she does is coop herself up at home studying psychology.
"This time, after we kill Wu Tian, we'll let the elders of the Horizontal Sect see whose descendant is more outstanding. Then, those elders will know who to choose to inherit the leadership of the Horizontal Sect."
"Don't worry, Father," Wu Wo nodded, speaking with grand confidence. "The moment Wu Tian set foot on Mount Yunmeng, his fate was sealed. He will never leave this place. I have laid out a path for him, fraught with crisis at every step."
They hadn't even known Wu Fa had an illegitimate son until Wu Fa descended the mountain with Wang Cai to seek medical treatment. Wu Wo had sent people to follow them and, unexpectedly, discovered the boy's existence.
Wu Wo had always been bored, feeling that Wu Fa's daughter, Yue'er, was no challenge for him. When Wu Tian appeared, however, Wu Wo finally felt a sense of satisfaction.
"Now, this is someone worthy of being my opponent!"
Wu Tian, carrying the little one and followed by Cui Tian, had already arrived before the South Heavenly Gate.
As for the Black and White Swords? They had gone down the mountain to change their clothes. To Wu Tian, their black and white tunic suits made them look like a comedy duo. They could only obey Wu Tian's command, using their extreme Qinggong to descend the mountain with orders to return as quickly as possible.
"The common people suffer, the world is in turmoil; of the Hundred Schools of Thought, only ours, the School of Diplomacy, reigns supreme."
"With a single fit of rage, the feudal lords tremble; when we remain tranquil, peace prevails throughout the world."
"But it has fallen, alas!"
Walking on the mountain path, Wu Tian found the sparse Spiritual Energy on Mount Yunmeng to be a disappointment. Some said the first master of Ghost Valley was not yet dead, but no one knew if that was true.
I've only just begun to uncover the truth of this modern world. Could the Martial Arts World be merely the foundation? And the deeper truth… is it only known to Ghost Valley? The history of the Hundred Schools of Thought is the most ancient, but after they were dismissed in favor of Confucianism, the other teachings vanished. Even Confucianism, through a thousand years of evolution, has lost the secrets it once held. But what about Ghost Valley? Do they know something? And my sword scabbard... is it here?
Wu Tian's heart grew heavy.
MWAH.
Sensing his mood, the little one leaned over and planted a kiss squarely on his cheek.
