Chapter 309 - 186: Lost
"Mirror of Sin... Evil Extermination List..."
Tie Lingyun instinctively glanced at Miss Ling Fei.
Then he sneered coldly:
"They truly have a lot of guts!"
"Father, you don’t need to be afraid!"
Tie Chuming suddenly patted Tie Lingyun’s shoulder:
"I’ve already found someone to protect you!"
"Oh?"
Tie Lingyun first looked at Tie Chuming, then at the young lord, and chuckled:
"Then I must thank the young lord."
"The Grand Hall Master is thanking the wrong person..."
Chu Qing laughed and said:
"Although I happened to rescue Miss Tie and Vice Hall Master Cheng,
"I have no intention of getting involved in the muddy waters of Iron Blood Hall and Blazing Hall.
"I merely intend to pass through now."
"...So that’s how it is."
Tie Lingyun nodded, not finding anything amiss.
Chu Qing had already helped him a lot, how could he blame him for not wanting to get involved now?
After all, he was not part of Iron Blood Hall.
"Why thank him?"
Tie Chuming snorted:
"The person I found isn’t him."
Chu Qing rolled his eyes... other than me, who else could it be...
"Oh?"
Tie Lingyun was taken aback:
"When did my little Qing’Er become so socially adept?
"But I wonder, which hero did you find?"
"Hehe."
Tie Chuming laughed:
"You definitely wouldn’t guess this person..."
"All mysterious, tell us."
Tie Lingyun looked at Tie Chuming, who was being secretive, and couldn’t help but laugh, his eyes full of doting affection.
Tie Chuming glanced at everyone in the room and found they were all looking at her.
She giggled:
"This person is the Night Emperor from Divine Blade Hall, who cut Jiang Divine Saber with a single blow and broke the Chaotic God Saber with his bare hands!"
As soon as the words "Night Emperor" were spoken, everyone present, except Chu Qing and Gentle... along with Nianxin Nian’an, was indeed all taken aback.
"It’s actually him!"
Tie Lingyun’s expression stiffened.
He didn’t take Jiang Divine Saber seriously, but Jiang Divine Saber wielding the Chaotic God Saber had to be considered seriously.
Moreover, the Chaotic God Saber was made from God’s Tears Iron.
Yet it was directly broken by that Night Emperor.
The martial prowess of this person is truly hard to fathom.
At least within Divine Blade Hall, he had yet to fully show his abilities... Especially when Pei Wuji, such a Demon Dao expert, was later killed by a single Flying Saber from him on the spot.
According to eyewitnesses, that single Flying Saber was truly terrifying.
Some even said that just this one saber could astonish the Martial World for several centuries!
The last sentence seemed a bit exaggerated, yet also demonstrated his skill.
It’s just after Divine Blade City, this person suddenly vanished without any news.
And then within Luochun Manor, the young lord’s reputation quickly soared.
The Night Emperor’s news gradually ceased to be mainstream...
To many people, this Martial World is just like this, you perform your act, and then I appear.
Masters continually emerge, and new happenings continually occur.
After Luochun Manor, the most widespread story was the battle at Ghost God Gorge... This battle remains unresolved.
Unexpectedly, the Night Emperor found Tie Chuming at this time.
Cao Qiupu sighed at this moment:
"I missed the world-renowned First Grade Conference of Divine Blade Hall due to other commitments, failing to meet the Night Emperor.
"Thinking back now, it is quite regrettable."
"Qing’Er, when did he promise you to come and protect father?"
Tie Lingyun then asked Tie Chuming.
He hadn’t considered how coincidental things were... how the Night Emperor suddenly appeared here?
This actually is nothing to be said of, for Jianghu people, naturally wherever there’s excitement or benefits, that’s where they’ll appear.
Now this buzz around Ghost God Gorge is tremendously loud.
It’s only natural for the Night Emperor to appear here.
"Just the night before last."
Tie Chuming said:
"I suppose he should be nearby... But as an assassin, he might be disguised or something...
"We likely won’t find him."
Tie Lingyun, however, laughed:
"You underestimate your dad. This fort is loosely guarded on the outside but tightly guarded within, with many secrets among it.
"Blending in won’t be so easy.
"I’ll issue a command to thoroughly investigate, see if any clues can be found."
Chu Qing sat there, observing Tie Lingyun ordering his men to investigate, feeling speechless inside.
The Night Emperor is right here... I’ll quietly watch you discover anything?
After Tie Lingyun finished assigning tasks, he looked at Chu Qing and smiled:
"I’ve embarrassed you, young lord. Speaking of which, this Night Emperor and young lord are both prominent figures recently rising in the Martial World.
"You should have met him, right?"
"We had an encounter within Divine Blade Hall."
Chu Qing casually lied, while in reality, he sees himself daily, a reflection.
Tie Chuming blinked:
"Which do you think is more formidable, you or Night Emperor?"
Should be equally formidable...
Chu Qing silently ridiculed himself and slightly shook his head:
"Having not fought, who knows?
"Besides, this person is an assassin, he won’t easily confront someone directly. If he ambushes or attacks secretly, I’m afraid it won’t be easy to handle."
"However, judging by his actions, he isn’t a despicable person who will stoop to any means."
Tie Lingyun softly said:
"Within Divine Blade Hall, for a small blacksmith and the villagers of Qingxi Village, he assassinated Jiang Divine Saber with courage and chivalry, making one long for him."
"I’ve heard about it too."
Cao Qiupu nodded repeatedly:
"At that time, two masters from Taiyi Sect were present, oh yes, the young lord was there.
"Everyone says this Night Emperor may walk in the shadows as an assassin, but his deeds are those of the Heroic Dao, a person of noble conduct."
Chu Qing didn’t know why, but the topic suddenly turned to discussions about the Night Emperor.
