Sword Among Us

Chapter 432: Intelligent Heart Temple, Verbally Taught Nine Yang Skill

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Kind Tycoon originally intended to use the instincts of a top ranked player on the Famous Player Rank to determine the value of Life and Death Dual Rites Sword Technique and Bodhidharma Sword Technique. However, what he did not expect was that the two out of the three Life and Death Realm sword technique manuals which he had been proud of were ignored. He was dumbfounded and wondered if his plan had been revealed when he set the price at one billion taels of silver. His tone changed.

[Brother Happy, I have a question. It’s about your fourth-echelon Nation Protecting Divine Sword. How did you manage to deceive the Divine Weapon Rank? If you tell me the secret, I’ll give you this martial art manual for free.]

Kind Tycoon was a very calculative person. While he searched for information, he also gave Happy quite a big bargaining chip.

He offered Happy a good Life and Death Realm sword!

It was a sword technique manual that was worth at least fifty million taels of silver, and he did it just because he wanted to get a piece of information. Perhaps only people like Kind Tycoon, who treated money as if it was nothing, could do something like that.

However, Happy’s answer disappointed him once again.

[Let’s not mix in other things into this trade. Let’s just finish the trade for Flying Dragon Sword Technique. I’m not too used to owing people favors.] His tone was indifferent, and he did not show any excitement toward Kind Tycoon’s suggestion.

[Hehe, then, I’ll sell it for fifty million. It’s fine if you don’t want to tell me the secret of the Divine Weapon Rank. I understand.]

Kind Tycoon laughed dryly.

He could tell that Happy did not intend to reveal his secrets, and he knew not to look into this matter any further through sensible tact. However, when a person was as smart as he was, he could still sense something unusual from Happy deliberately keeping the matter a secret. Since Mu Clan had intentionally concealed one fourth-echelon masterpiece, could a second and third fourth-echelon masterpieces also exist among them?

Mu Clan’s abilities might not be as they seemed.

Happy’s four attributes had long since surpassed eight points. Once the trade was completed, he learned Flying Dragon Sword Technique without hesitation. He then went about the city and was surprised to hear an unexpected piece of news in the streets of Eternal Peace County.

There were originally many bandits lurking around the area of Eternal Peace Temple.

However, once the Jin Dynasty Soldiers stationed themselves in Eternal Peace Temple, the bandits vanished without a trace, and many players who used the bandits to train lost their training spots and source of income.

However, because of an accident, the players began to notice one after another that the Jin Dynasty soldiers in Eternal Peace Temple were about the same level as the bandits.

Once someone approached the temple, no matter who it was, they would immediately be attacked by Jin Dynasty soldiers!

Even though the Jin Dynasty soldiers were not weak—they had all reached Mystical Realm, had a 5-man commander in Life and Death Realm, incredible teamwork, and a lot of people—which made them a little difficult to kill, they dropped equipment and money once they died.

What surprised the players even more was that the Jin Dynasty soldiers in Eternal Peace Temple respawned quickly. The respawn time was half an hour, and it made many players incredibly excited. They went about spreading the news and formed parties to work together to clear Eternal Peace Temple!

Within just half a day, countless small teams stationed themselves in Eternal Peace Temple, and quite a number of people even came near Mahavira Hall where they saw an orderly row of fierce, heavy-armored warriors.

Some people spread word that if those heavy-armored warriors were killed, each of them dropped at least one thousand taels of silver. The drop rate of masterpieces did not seem to be low either.

Even though many people died near Mahavira Hall and the tall tower, there were also many heavy-armored soldiers who died in their hands, and plenty of players went after them.

Of course, Happy did not dare to approach Eternal Peace Temple recklessly. Normal players might not have any problems in entering that place to train, but he was someone who was involved in a quest. Once he got closer, he might cause Zhao Min’s three servants to attack him. One A’san was already difficult to deal with, so Happy did not want to gamble with his life.

He returned to the inn and changed into a set of inconspicuous clothes. He then called two disciples from Emei Sect to go out of the city in search for Intelligent Heart Temple, which was a place where Emei Sect disciples stationed themselves.

While they were on their way, the Emei Sect disciples told Happy some things.

Most of the temples for nuns in the world of martial artists in China were under Emei Sect’s name. They were Emei Sect’s branches and informants placed everywhere in the world of martial artists.

Besides, those who could build temples were all martial aunts who had some degree of achievements with their martial arts. They were at least at Moksha Realm, which was perfect to protect the Emei Sect disciples.

The leader of Intelligent Heart Temple was a proper Moksha Realm fighter. She had a few disciples under her, and she was not weak.

Happy swiftly realized that it was a good chance. Since he had the jade ring, he could summon all Emei Sect disciples. If he could persuade the leader of Intelligent Heart Temple as well, then the situation would be different!

Intelligent Heart Temple was less than a few miles away from the city, and it was very close to Eternal Peace Temple.

When Happy saw the leader of Intelligent Heart Temple, he simply could not wrap his head around the idea that the old nun in her fifties and dressed in garments made of pure cloth was the leader of a nun temple and even a Moksha Realm fighter.

Leader Hui Xin was completely different from Mistress Annihilation. She looked incredibly friendly and gave off a calming presence. She had a water bucket on her shoulders, and it gave her a simple air that made it clear that she stood aloof from worldly matters. She spoke slowly, and her voice was like an ancient bell deep in the mountains. It could baptize a soul.

“Martial Aunt Hui Xin!”

“Ah, it’s you, Jing Neng.” The old nun put down her water bucket and placed her palms together in a salute. “Do you have the sect teacher’s whereabouts yet?”

Jing Neng moved forward to answer. “Yes, Martial Aunt Hui Xin. We found Young Swordsman Happy, and he helped us find out the sect teacher’s whereabouts.”

“I see, so she is locked up with the elites of the six great sects in Eternal Peace Temple. It’s no wonder then why there have been so many Jin Dynasty soldiers in the area these days.”

Leader Hui Xin had a compassionate expression on her face. “Even though I have been quietly walking in the ways of Buddha for decades, I am still a disciple of Emei Sect. Now that my sect teacher is in danger, I cannot just sit by and watch. Young Swordsman Happy, if you have use for this old nun, please order me as you please.”

“Mistress, you are too serious.” Happy hastened to return her salute. “Mistress Annihilation had evaluated me highly, so when she was in danger, she gave me this great task. But unfortunately, my strength is too low! I couldn’t lead the sects to go to Eternal Peace Temple and save the elites.”

“Young Swordsman Happy, you’re too humble,” Hui Xin said with a well of emotions. “Even though you’re young, you managed to retreat while surrounded by Jin Dynasty soldiers. This is enough to prove that you are intelligent and have extraordinary powers. Coincidentally, I was around Eternal Peace Temple yesterday night. If I were in your place, I doubt that I would have been able to leave while I surrounded by those two powerful fighters.”

“Mistress, you went to Eternal Peace Temple yesterday night?”

Happy was stunned.

Hui Xin nodded solemnly. “Eternal Peace Temple and Intelligent Heart Temple are places where Buddha is. They are places where our origins lie, and we usually communicate with each other. Right now, Jin Dynasty soldiers have occupied the land in which the masters of Eternal Peace Temple meditate en masse. There is no way I cannot pay attention to this.”

She paused for a moment before her tone suddenly changed. “Young swordsman, you are not a member of our sect, but you were willing to risk your life for the people of the six sects. You have a kind heart, and you think of the people in the country. I admire you...

“We are not able to do anything in regards to the matter of the six sects. We must wait until the elites of the six sects have gathered together. However, young swordsman, why don’t you train in Intelligent Heart Temple for the time being. I see that your comprehension is astonishing, and I have with me a martial art that I can give you. Then, when you practice martial arts in the future, you will have twice the results with only half the effort.”

Her final sentence made Happy’s heart tense up suddenly.

‘Getting twice the results with only half the effort when I practice martial arts? Could this be the legendary ultimate technique?”

When he thought that he actually had the chance to practice the martial art that even Emei Sect disciples might not be able to practice, his expression instantly turned strange.

“Martial aunt, are you perhaps talking about Emei Divine Yang Skill, the skill we have been verbally passing down to our disciples through generations?” Jing Neng suddenly asked.
