Chapter Eighty-One: Scarlet Seal

les, and elders needed him, he wasn't there....will never be there again.This is a foreign land, and night has fallen.Li Jianqiu had already given the order to eliminate those scurrying rats, so his p...When faced with challenging cultivators, there are both ways of dealing with them that adhere to rules and ways that do not. There are methods for both those who follow the rules and those who do not.

For example, Sikong Jingxiao's attitude towards Xiang Qian and Bai Yu Xia.

Several months ago, I arrived at Jian Ge and challenged the cultivators within its borders. None were able to withstand my attacks. This wasn't a major event, and I had promised myself that I would only verify my swordsmanship through these battles. The results would not be spread beyond this place.

>

But Si Kong Jingxiao was very dissatisfied with his defeated junior brother, believing that he had disgraced the Jian Ge name. He said, "Unrefined in skill, you allowed a lowlife to surpass you, using your superior skills to lose to inferior techniques, ruining the ten thousand-year reputation of our Jian Ge."

Inheriting the ancient Three Ultimate Sword Techniques, its history is relatively insignificant compared to the 30,000-year history of Jian Ge.

This is a response to your prompt.

The entire era of flying swords has not been traced back to recent history in the historical records of the world.

The era of flying swords was brilliant but short-lived, lasting only one hundred and seven years before it perished. From the 733rd year of Daoli to the 840th year.

It can be said that Jiange, standing on Tianmu Peak, has witnessed the birth and demise of the flying sword era, truly embodying the saying, "its rise was swift and its fall sudden."

They look down upon the flying sword art, which is understandable. The old look down upon the new, and what survives looks down upon what has perished.

But, of course, Xiang Qian was not satisfied.

As for him, if someone called him a petty and useless person, he wouldn't care at all. But calling his "Sole Sword Path" a mere trick would be stepping on his sore spot.

The art of flying swords could claim an era in a mere one hundred and seven years. My Swordsmanship, standing at the pinnacle of the times, listed among the top three Flying Swords, how could it possibly be a minor technique

This is an empty line.

Most importantly, this is the way his master passed down to Feng Qi!

Therefore, the always-tired forward struck Si Kong Jingxiao hard in retaliation and angrily declared that after Shenlin's arrival, he would come south again and surely defeat him in a sword fight.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

So he was hanged...

This text is empty.

The crime was "insolence of a child to an elder."

When Bai Yu's flaw, who was walking forward with him, couldn't stand it any longer, she stepped out to "speak for fairness", and as a result, both she and Qian Xiang were hanged.

This person has no foundation whatsoever. The era of flying swords is over, and Xiang Fengqi died countless years ago. What background could he possibly have

As for Bai Yuxia, the White clan of Yue Guo may have a good reputation, but they are nothing to Jian Ge.

His highness, Sikong Jingxiao, wouldn't really kill Bai Yuxia. He would only suspend her for a few months, wear down her temper, and expect the Bai family of Yueguo wouldn't say anything. They might even thank him for helping discipline their child.

>

Just because Jian Ge's peak stands like a sword, does that mean it challenges the world's greatest swordsman Even establishing an unfathomable Heavenly Gate called "welcoming all comers," what kind of boldness is this To act like Si Kong Jing Xiao is truly too petty. Spreading such news only harms Jian Ge's reputation.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

But he has his reasons.

Many years ago, when he arrived in Fengqi from the south, he defeated all five masters of Jiange. Among them was Tu Qianli, the masterless swordmaster who had his left arm severed. He was the master of Sikong Jingxiao.

Tu Anli considered this battle loss a great shame and humiliation. He said he would never be defeated by Feng Qi, but his left arm remained unusable for life. Later, when he challenged Feng Qi with his sword in front of Jiang Mengxiong, he was defeated again, losing his chance to redeem himself. To this day, he remains one-armed.

A sword technique from a bygone era is still struggling to and fro. The new age has already arrived, and the ghosts of the old era are still wailing. Masters at the level of Dongzhen come to Jiange for a challenge, and disciples at the level of Neifu also come to Jiange for a challenge, treating Jiange as what

Si Kong Jingxiao was indeed deliberately targeting Xiang Qian, and in order not to appear too obvious, he also casually implicated Bai Yu Xia.

To subdue the Inner Court with divine force is certainly a violation of decorum. However, Jian Ge has enough confidence to do so.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

While Jiang Wang was different.

As for Jiang Wang, he couldn't afford to be unruly.

If Jian Ge doesn't want to follow the rules, Qi State would probably be even more willing to cooperate.

>

Therefore, he had to give the people of Qi some setbacks, but also keep it within the rules.

But among those around Jiang Wang's age, Ning Shuangrong was already the most outstanding in Jiange, yet she had been defeated at Wujianxia.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Usually, young generations from powerful factions hone their skills against peers of similar age.

After all, Jiang Wang is only twenty-one this year, so it's not appropriate to pair her with the thirty-six-year-old Sikong Jingxiao. There's a whole age gap between them.

How can Sikong Jingxiao of his company legally intervene

As long as Jiang Wang doesn't mind, others have nothing to say.

So he was deliberately trying to anger Jiang Wang.

And Jiang Wang... was also deliberately letting herself get angry.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Si Kong Jingxiao thought he had come to ask about the sword, intending to ask fellow cultivators of the same age as him in Jian Ge. Unknowingly, Jiang Wang's plan was to question all the Shen Lin in Jian Ge!

Let Ruan Qiu be a little more arrogant on this trip.

He didn't put on any airs of arrogance, nor did he give those minor officials any face. He came solely to capture the king.

If you want to be arrogant, do the most arrogant thing.

Through the boundless Heavenly Gate, entering Jian Ge, this challenge of his had no limit.

Today, he arrived with his sword drawn, challenging everyone in Jian Ge from the five Sword Masters down. No matter how many years they had spent in cultivation, or how deep their accumulation was, as long as they were at the Shen Lin level, he challenged them all. Today, he is "the one who comes," and he accepts all challengers!

However, challenging this kind of thing can be like a forward challenge, only for honing one's swordsmanship. It can be kept private, with no mention of the outcome. Or it can be like what Jiang Wang is doing now, blocking at the entrance of the crowd's sword gate, naming names and acting arrogantly.

The former was just a friendly exchange of ideas, the latter was almost like a challenge!

Even looking at it from Ning Shuangrong's face, Jiang Wang wouldn't be so harsh.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

But to be held here, humiliated by this Si Kong Jingxiao's overwhelming power...

He's definitely going to get the stage back from Xiangqian.

What is a close friend

At the time, he hadn't even reached the inner court, but still accompanied him in ambushing Haizongming at the outer court.

This man, accustomed to living a life of indolence and waiting for things to happen, was too lazy even to raise his eyelids. He went to the Qin state to challenge someone, but was beaten by Qin Zhizhen and fell into the Wei River. Even then, he didn't forget to hype himself up, so that when he met Qin Zhizhen at the Yellow River conference, he could surprisingly gain the upper hand. This earned him the title of "One Sword Supreme."

This is a dear friend.

He may joke with Qian Xiang, but that doesn't mean he really doesn't care.

>

As he laughed at her as she moved forward, his heart was aching!

He understood Si Kong Jingxiao's intentions, and he wasn't going to give Jian Ge any more face.

At this moment, Jiang Wang was practically poking at Si Kong Jingxiao's forehead, challenging him to a fight. Her attitude was domineering and arrogant. The entire Mountain Terrace Plaza attracted quite a few Jian Ge disciples who glared at her angrily.

Ning Shuangrong took a step forward.

Si Kong Jingxiao directly raised his hand to stop her: "Sister Ning, you don't need to say any more!"

Jiang Wang took the initiative to challenge, his purpose has been achieved, he would never give Jiang Wang another chance to avoid battle.

"I just want to say," Ning Shuorong said, "testing swords is a common thing. There's no need to spoil the harmony between us. Why not go to the Heavenly Sword Box and spar You can fully display your skills there. With the Sword Master watching over us, there's nothing to worry about."

“No need!” Sikong Jingxiao said, “I won’t kill him, but it’s best to stay here. Let all the junior brothers and sisters see what is the swordsmanship of absolute sword, how our Jiange stands for 30,000 years!”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Ning Shuangrong, as the most talented person in Jian Ge this generation, who has just achieved Shen Lin, is absolutely qualified to speak at this time.

But Jiang Wang and Sikong Jingxiao's attitudes were both very firm, she was no longer able to stop the fight. So she stopped speaking, falling silent among the disciples of Jian Ge.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Although Chu Yao liked this fairy sister very much, at this time she also held the white ox and took a few steps back, standing firmly behind her master.

At this time, near the gate tower of the Swordsmen's Pavilion.

Qi State's Duke Wu'an, Jiang Wang, faced off against the leading disciple of Jian Ge at the time, Sikong Jingxiao.

Behind Sikong Jingxiao stood the Jiange disciples who kept coming up the mountain.

Behind Jiang Wang stood Chu Yao, Bai Niu, Xiang Qian, and Bai Yu Xia... Small size, weak strength, the most powerful was a bull.

If both sides don't act properly and collide head-on, Jiang Wang and the others will probably have to run for their lives.

Though there was a vast disparity in the support between the two sides, Si Kong Jingxiao had seniority over Jiang Wang in terms of age, cultivation time, and the length of time he had achieved divine presence. However, whether it was Chu Yao, Bai Niu, or Xiang Qian, they were all brimming with confidence.

Only Bai Yu's flaw was a little worried. He was a person who pursued perfection. Although he had been influenced by Xiang Qian and relaxed a lot now, he still had high demands on himself. Today Jiang Wang's fierce attitude, although mainly for Xiang Qian, also had something to do with him. If this led to Jiang Wang being humiliated, he would feel very uneasy.

"Things were different when they moved forward. Forward had the leisure to chat with Chu Yao. 'Boy, who are you'"

Chu Yao nervously gazed at the two people facing each other, replying in a hushed voice: "I'm my master's apprentice. Second disciple! My surname is Chu, and my name is Yao!"

"To take on apprentices at such a young age, and even a second disciple Truly not afraid of trouble..." Xiang Qian muttered listlessly, waving his hand dismissively: "Come, help your senior brother up. Let's step aside, so that Mr. Si doesn't run out of space to kneel later."

When Zhu Yao heard that this person was her master, there was no way she wouldn't listen.

Hurry over and help him up, and kindly pull Bai Niu over: "Brother Niu, let me get my master to sit down for a bit, he's injured."

The white ox mooed, then whipped its tail, sending the [something] that had rolled onto its back flying.

"Ha! That's great!" Xiang Qian smiled happily.

Regardless of how his sworn brother Bai Yu-xia fared, he lay comfortably against the broad back of the white ox, using his hand as a pillow and resting on its rump. He even propped up one leg in a carefree manner, fully prepared to watch the battle.

I wanted to ask if there was any wine, but I thought it would be pointless, so I didn't bother.

Of course, Sikong Jingxiao dismissed the words of forwardness. At this moment, looking at Jiang Wang, he only said: "Since Marquis Wuan insists on sparring with me, although I am older, I am ashamed to bully the young. I can only accept it. After all, Jian Ge asks the world's sword king, there is no reason not to respond. But if you lose today, please go back where you came from and don't interfere in other people's affairs."

"Very well." Jiang Wang looked at him calmly, "If I don't beat you to your knees today, I'll consider myself a loser."

He had always been a man who respected his opponents, never resorting to such vulgar insults like those hurled at common ruffians before a duel. This time, he was genuinely angry, which is why he spoke with such vehemence.

"Then we'll just see if you have the ability!" Si Kong Jingxiao casually waved his hand, crimson runes appearing out of nowhere. They quickly intertwined in mid-air, weaving themselves into a scarlet long sword, its light flickering and fading.

This sword is named "Chi Fu", a famous sword from the Jian Ge collection. It is said to have been wielded by Emperor Liang Ming of the Later Liang Dynasty.

>

This incompetent emperor, killed by the Xia people's medicine, was said to have wielded a fine sword. Unfortunately, he was inept at governing and lacked the qualities of a true king. His demise led to the nation's destruction, leaving him nothing but a laughingstock.

This sword later somehow ended up in Jian Ge.

When Sikong Jingxiao was young, he chose a sword. He immediately fell in love with Chi Fu. The elders of his sect said it was ominous and asked him to choose another. Sikong Jingxiao replied: “Throughout history, there have been people who are considered ill-omened. I haven’t heard of any unlucky weapons. If so, then I am willing to bear the burden.”

When the Master of the Heartless Sword, Tu Kuanli, heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "My Dao can be passed on." He then took him as his personal disciple.

Therefore, the one who was treated with such contempt by Jiang Wang today was also a legendary figure among the Jian Ge disciples. He was adorned with glory and highly revered by his junior brothers and sisters. No wonder that the entire Mountain Platform Square, Jian Ge disciples all had anger in their eyes.

Unfortunately, these angers cannot practically interfere with the fighting.

Without the need for any host, as soon as Sikong Jingxiao grasped the red decree, the battle began.

His sword intent surged into the sky, splitting the clouds.

>

The crimson blade was like a river of blood, ancient runes drifting within it.

But Jiang Wang's sword had already been unsheathed.

It's out in the spiritual world!

In the vast and boundless Yuanshen Sea, within the majestic Yun Shen Temple, Sikong Jingxiao, wielding his crimson sword, opened his eyes with a commanding presence.

He keenly sensed that his control over this Sea of Primordial Spirit was wavering.

Drawing his sword, he flew out of the Divine Palace and stepped into the Heavenly Palace.

The man and his sword, seated within the true dragon skull at the heart of the Dao vein.

The Dao Vein True Dragon perched on the roof let out a deafening roar that shook the heavens. Blazing sword light erupted from its body, as if trying to pierce through the eternal night of the Yuanshen Sea. When the sword light dissipated, every scale on the Dao Vein True Dragon had transformed into a sharp blade!

Especially a pair of dragon horns, emitting a terrifying edge comparable to the Crimson Rune Sword, illuminating the dark night.

This is the unsolved mystery of Jian Ge, the Dragon Tamer of Heaven.

This is the ultimate divine soul secret art that uses a sword to kill souls.

This dragon bears a sword, its power concentrated into one. It also possesses the great authority of controlling the Soul Sea and the terrifying killing power to shatter enemies and obliterate souls. With this, Si Kong Jingxiao excels in the path of soul combat, rarely encountering an opponent he cannot defeat.

But almost at the same time.

Here's the translation, retaining the HTML tags:

A supreme and ancient gate stands in the heavens!

A terrifying majesty enveloped this spiritual sea. The Sky-Piercing Dragon, already soaring high in the sky, was inexplicably suppressed and forced to plummet over ten zhang!

This distance, of course, is just a concept in the spiritual world, and it reflects the power within the spiritual world.

It is obvious that Sikong Jingxiao's authority has been reduced too much.

The Supreme Lord of Heaven and Earth is coming, who dares to claim dominion over the heavens

The ancient gateway atop the dome burst open!

The terrifying sword dragon, stretching over ten miles long, had a figure holding a red sword flying out from its dragon head.

However, it was Si Kong Jing Xiao who was forced out of Jianlong along with his sword by the terrifying power of Chaotianque!

The Jiange has been passed down for 30,000 years, and the divine soul secret arts that have survived to this day are certainly extraordinary.

But as for the victory of today, it is certain to surpass that of yesterday.

Qi Mu Emperor, single-handedly restoring the state, laid the foundation for his imperial ambitions in a Qi that was effectively already destroyed.

Such a mighty king, compared to any previous master of the Jian Ge, would not yield.

His signature skill was, without exaggeration, unparalleled in the world.

Jiang Wang's powerful spiritual energy, coupled with the power of Chaotianque, instantly crushed Jianlong Yu Tian.

And at this very moment, a beam of crimson light suddenly shot out from the Heavenly Gate, chasing after Sima Jingxiao.

The sound of gold hitting the wood!

As Sikong Jingxiao soared backward, his sword flashed, and countless sword-shaped runes whirled around him, each tracing a mystical path. Amidst the whistling sound, there was an evident display of divine power.

This is a unique soul secret art created by him, the combined power of his He Chi Fu Jian Wei, Jian Fu Hu Ling!

But the ancient Heavenly Citadel that suppressed the dome only trembled slightly, causing this world to shake! Sīkōng Jǐngxiao's protective spirit sword talisman scattered instantly, and its profound and mysterious trajectory was completely deviated.

The crimson beams of the Gold-Destroying Hammer clashed at this moment, shattering the layered sword talismans and forcing Si Kong Jingxiao to retreat continuously.

He was directly blasted back to the Yùnshen Hall!

And with a flourish, he returned to his divine throne within the Sanctum of Enchantment!
