Chapter 3227: Chapter 1636: Seven Sword Deities Traverse Mountains Remembering the Past, Hallmaster Dao Arrives during the Darkest Period_3
“But You Tu, is just such a person.” Dao Qiongcang finished speaking and couldn’t help sighing deeply, as if he still couldn’t accept it to this day.
“Going solo?”
“Going solo!”
“After killing a person, you let him escape? How useless is that?”
“He escaped.” Dao Qiongcang paused, then corrected with a frown, “But it was ‘they’, not ‘us’. I was just a passerby on the mountain at that time…!”
Xu Xiaoshou became interested, flipped over, and resting on his arms, looked at him and asked: “Did you see You Tu kill the previous Hallmaster with your own eyes? Did he see his face? Was it a stealthy assassination with a black cloth, or did he do it boldly?”
“Not with my own eyes, but might as well be, right?”
Dao Qiongcang wasn’t too sure: “Anyway, even though I wasn’t at the scene, through the Heavenly Mechanism Puppets, I could see what was happening. The closest puppet to me even got destroyed by sword energy.”
Xu Xiaoshou clicked his tongue, his interest piqued even further: “What about Sword Deity Hua? The version of the story I heard was that You Tu, out of anger for Bazhun’an, later wounded Sword Deity Hua and sealed him in some place called the Land of Screen and Candles, locking him away for decades.”
Having asked, he then added: “Can I even ask this? We’re here talking about Sword Deity Hua, he won’t find out, right?”
Still pretending to be so innocent, acting like you know nothing, just like a blank slate… Dao Qiongcang rolled his eyes:
“He can’t hear us.”
“Divine Relics, after all, are not the same as the Shengshen Continent, there isn’t a Stairway to Heaven connecting the upper and lower realms, allowing us to call upon his name freely.”
Only then he continued:
“In fact, as I said, You Tu’s arrival was too sudden, no one on the sacred mountain was prepared.”
“After he killed the Hallmaster, the first one to discover him was the God Worship Willow Tree, and the only one he chopped was just that.”
“Sword Deity Hua… He might have sensed the Sword Will from afar, but by the time he arrived, the man was gone and the tea was cold.”
“Why would Sword Deity Hua isolate himself in the Land of Screen and Candles?” Xu Xiaoshou crinkled his nose, suspecting that Dao Qiongcang might be lying.
“Land of Screen and Candles!”
Dao Qiongcang couldn’t bear it.
Do you really plan to storm the Sacred Mountain?
I’m here giving you inside information, yet you can’t even get the basic place names right, you probably don’t even know what the Saint Hall is, do you?
“Sword Deity Hua wasn’t wounded physically, but emotionally.”
“He was hurt because he couldn’t have a noble fight with Bazhun’an, following the ancient swordsman rituals of bathing, dressing, burning incense, and bowing before the battle.”
“And even more so because Bazhun’an wasn’t in his prime state, fighting with his strongest battle intent, so when he defeated him and then smugly felt like he had won, he later realized he was just a clown taking advantage at others’ vulnerability, which hurt him even more.”
Dao Qiongcang traced several shapes on the ground with his finger: “The rituals of ancient swordsmen are very complicated, like how you and Beibei do it, still considered hasty; they are also very stubborn, once they set their minds on how a thing should be, they have to follow it exactly as understood… do you get what I mean?”
“I understand.”
Complicated, stubborn.
Xu Xiaoshou knew about it, after all, he was also an ancient swordsman, but listening to all this…
“Sword Deity Hua still seems like a real man though, how could he take advantage of someone?”
“You know Elder Yu Dao Xuan, right?” Dao Qiongcang suddenly changed the topic.
Holy moly.
Seriously?
Why bring her up, is she involved?
Xu Xiaoshou felt like he had heard some major news, his eyes widened as if a force was lifting his upper body: “What did she do now, not messing with people again, huh?”

“She…”
Dao Qiongcang hadn’t even started speaking when he suddenly realized that gossiping behind others’ backs, especially one’s own people, was a very inappropriate behavior.
And one of the main characters of the story might even be present.
He immediately ducked his head, pointing at Xu Xiaoshou’s stomach: “Isn’t Bazhun’an right here? Why not ask the person in question first?”
