Medical and Martial God

Jiang Keqing was so angry that she didn’t speak, and cursed Ye Xiu as a rogue scoundrel in her heart.

At this moment, Ye Xiu changed the topic and asked:

”What if all the independent martial artists on King Island knew that the three Judicator Families were targeting Sword Cottage, what would happen?”

Jiang Keqing instantly understood Ye Xiu’s meaning and said:

”You mean you want me to exaggerate the truth, making all independent martial artists believe that the three Judicator Families want to wipe them out, forcing them to resist the three Judicator Families?”

As she spoke, she took out her phone and quickly took photos of the corpse on the ground.

Seeing this, Ye Xiu laughed. It’s easy talking to smart people; they catch on immediately.

With Jiang Keqing’s means, causing panic among all the independent martial artists on King Island was not difficult. Whether she could lead them to resist the three Judicator Families depended on her abilities!

He said, ”When you unite the independent martial artists, I will give you the Totem.”

”Really?” Jiang Keqing was overjoyed.

Ye Xiu nodded, ”I generally don’t lie.”

”I’ll handle it right away.”

Jiang Keqing hurriedly left.

Right now, she didn’t care about stealing the Weapons Manual.

In her view, as long as she united the independent martial artists on King Island, Sword Cottage would certainly come under her command, and by then she could look at the Weapons Manual anytime she wanted, right?

After absorbing all the martial prowess and totems from the corpses, Ye Xiu, accompanied by Jiaojiao, reached the summit of One Sword Peak’s main peak.

At this time, more than six thousand independent martial artists had gone to participate in the examination.

Only the four Sword Masters remained at the mountaintop.

”I don’t need to participate in the Sword Cottage disciple exam, right?” Ye Xiu asked with a smile.

”Your strength has already been revealed, how could you still take the exam?” Nantian Jun said with a bitter smile.

Ye Xiu nodded and asked, ”Then tell me the real purpose you had for me taking the Sword Cottage disciple exam.”

This question had puzzled him for seven days!

The four Sword Masters exchanged glances!

”Look over there!”

Nantian Jun pointed to a large stone ten meters away, and said:

”There is a sword embedded in that stone. We would like you to try to see if you can help pull it out.”

Oh?

Ye Xiu suddenly became curious and leapt over to the large stone ten meters away.

Indeed, a sword was embedded in the stone, with only the hilt exposed.

”You all couldn’t pull it out?” Ye Xiu asked.

Nantian Jun said, ”This is the sword of the patriarch. On the day the three Judicator Families took control of the Eternal Islands, the patriarch wrote the word ’sword’ on Sword Burial Peak on Biluo Island and then embedded his sword here before disappearing.”

What?

The word ’sword’ on Sword Burial Peak was written by the patriarch of Sword Cottage?

Ye Xiu was truly surprised. When he first saw that word, he felt that the person who wrote it was not inferior to him in strength.

Unexpectedly, it was the patriarch of Sword Cottage!

”Interesting, it seems this sword hides a secret.” Ye Xiu’s interest grew stronger.

”Exactly!”

Nantian Jun nodded and said:

”When the patriarch embedded the sword in the stone, he left a message, ’The day the sword is drawn will be the day Sword Cottage rises.’ So generations of ancestors in Sword Cottage, as well as the three Judicator Families, have speculated that the patriarch hid a secret in this sword. For over two thousand years, every few years, the three Judicator Families have sent people to draw the sword, all to no avail.”

Beigong Wudi added, ”Apart from the three Judicator Families coming here to try and forcefully draw the sword, only those from Sword Cottage have the right to touch this revered sword. That’s why we agreed to lend you the Weapons Manual and invited you to participate in the Sword Cottage disciple exam; as long as you passed the exam and became a disciple of Sword Cottage, you’d have the right to draw the sword. But you’ve already displayed your strength and saved Sword Cottage, so now you have the right to draw the sword.”

So that’s how it is!

Ye Xiu realized, then asked, ”Can I give it a try?”

The four Sword Masters nodded, but didn’t hold much hope, as countless people had tried to draw the sword over two thousand years and had all failed.

Ye Xiu gripped the hilt with one hand and slowly applied force. With a series of ’crack’ sounds, cracks began to appear on the surface of the stone.

Seeing this, the four Sword Masters immediately became breathless.

There’s a chance!

For over two thousand years, even the three Judicator Families could not budge this giant stone, yet Ye Xiu was causing it to crack.

”Come out for me!”

Ye Xiu exerted a sudden force, and a rusty three-foot-long sword was pulled out of the stone by him.

”Haha, it’s out!”

”After over two thousand years, someone has finally drawn the patriarch’s sword.”

”There’s hope for Sword Cottage’s rise.”

”Mr. Ye is truly a divine person.”

The four Sword Masters, excited like children in their forties, now regarded Ye Xiu as the fortunate star of Sword Cottage.

In his first entry to Sword Cottage, not only did he save everyone in Sword Cottage, but he also helped Sword Cottage draw the sword that no one had been able to pull out for over two thousand years.

”This sword seems like no one has ever used it. Are you sure it’s the treasured sword of Sword Cottage’s patriarch?”

Ye Xiu closely examined the broken sword in his hand and frowned.

Weapons used by powerful individuals often absorbed intent, dao, killing aura, viciousness, among other things.

This rusty sword had none of that, as if it was embedded in the stone right after being forged and had never been used!

”It certainly looks ordinary.”

Nantian Jun took the sword, then easily sliced off a corner of the giant stone like cutting tofu and said:

”The quality is indeed top-notch, but what secret could it possibly hold?”

The other three Sword Masters also joined in to research and discuss.

At that moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly struck Ye Xiu’s mind and he said:

”The patriarch of Sword Cottage embedded the sword here, and wrote the word sword on Sword Burial Peak on Biluo Island. I think the secret of the sword can only be unlocked by combining the two.”

The four Sword Masters found this reasoning plausible.

Nantian Jun said, ”But the word ’sword’ on Sword Burial Peak is so filled with killing aura that anyone who sees it gets seriously injured. Over two thousand years, the predecessors of Sword Cottage, including the four of us, have all visited the word and returned severely injured.”

”My wife Qin Qing saw that word without any injury,” Ye Xiu said, ”Moreover, the sword dao contained in that word is now within Qin Qing.”

The four Sword Masters were taken aback.

Is such a thing possible?

”May I ask where your esteemed wife is now?” Nantian Jun asked.

Ye Xiu thought for a moment and said, ”She should be arriving at Tiger City in a couple of days. Once she’s here, I’ll bring her to test the sword.”

”Thank you!” The four Sword Masters clasped their fists.

They suddenly felt that Ye Xiu was truly the fortunate star of Sword Cottage.

After chatting with them for a bit, Ye Xiu took Jiaojiao back to Nanshi Cottage. Just then, a car stopped at the entrance of Nanshi Cottage.

Out of the car stepped a petite and charmingly beautiful young lady, looking about twenty years old.

”Hello, may I ask if this is Nanshi Cottage?”

The young lady asked as she approached Ye Xiu, her voice melodious and her smile sweet, looking like an innocent young girl from any angle.

However, Ye Xiu discovered that this person was a Sixth Realm War God, most likely sent by the Long Family to gather information at Nanshi Cottage.

He didn’t expose her immediately, but nodded and said:

”Yes, I am the butler here. Are you here to see the Little Princess or to find Jiye?”
