Zero To Hero In The Martial Arts Library

p>If they were not from the major sects, they would not be able to keep up with his movements.
Even if they saw it, it would be of no use.

Ye Xiao walked on the wind and finally landed by the river bank.
From afar, he could see a somewhat lonely figure sitting.
That man was burning a stack of money and carrying a longsword on his back.

Ye Xiao slowly walked forward.
The other party turned around and glanced at him.
He smiled slightly.
It was the head of the library’s personnel department, Yang Zhengyi.

“As expected of you.
You were actually able to find me.”

At that moment, Mr.
Yang was not wearing his usual suit.
Instead, he was wearing a satin robe.
It was a design from more than a hundred years ago, yet the clothes were brand new.
The embroidery on it was clearly of extraordinary quality.

It was not easy for an ordinary person, or even a grandmaster, to obtain such a robe with exquisite embroidery.

“Gu Hai’s text was sent to me by you, right?”

“That’s right.”

“You were the one who took King El’s map?”

Yang Zhengyi did not speak, but sometimes, the silence was the best answer.

“In the Legend Under the Starry Sky, among the recorded great and divine sects, one of them was you, right?

“I can sense the aura of a star beast on you, but you are not a tiger demon and feel no hostility toward me.
However, why would you harm so many people?”

Yang Zhengyi gulped down a mouthful of wine.
The wine bottle was obviously very old, and the air was permeated with a strong wine fragrance.

“More than a hundred years ago, various states were colluding against the nine provinces.
They led star beasts toward our land, endangering our people.

“The world was in turmoil and smoke rose from the nine provinces.

“In Jianghai city, there was a foolish martial arts expert who brought his disciples down the mountain to eliminate the enemies.

“In the end, he himself died, and his disciples fell one by one.

“In that battle, the martial arts expert and his disciples paid an extremely heavy price and finally succeeded in suppressing King El.

“However, what was laughable was that in order to increase the spiritual energy in Jianghai city and a few other cities, the higher-ups actually had not killed King El.
Instead, they separated his body into pieces and sealed them一using the blood essence to nourish the spiritual energy in a few cities.

“Using powerful star beasts to nourish the spiritual energy in cities was an act done by many across the world but it was clearly forbidden.
Therefore, the deeds of those martial artists were not even allowed to be written in the records.

“Ye Xiao, do you think those martial artists were foolish?

“They died in vain.
Not even their names were left behind.”

Ye Xiao said faintly,

“They are quite foolish, but I think you are even more so.”

“Why?”

“If I were you, who would dare to defy me? No matter how respected their position was, no matter how strong they were, I would have killed their entire family.

“Injustice has its head and debt has its owner.

“You don’t dare to touch those who displease you or those who have power and influence.
Instead, you cause so many ordinary people to die.
What’s the difference between you and a coward?”

Yang Zhengyi smiled.

“Let’s not talk about the past.
If we didn’t suppress King El, who knows how many people would have died in Jianghai city.

“These past years, Jianghai city was nourished by King El, and its spiritual energy increased greatly.
All the humans in Jianghai city were beneficiaries, so how could they be considered innocent?

“I used their blood to resurrect King El.
It was also Jianghai city’s compensation for the sacrifice of my master and many of my fellow disciples.

“This is the sacrifice they should pay!”

After saying that, his expression gradually turned cold.

“It’s been more than a hundred years.
Every night, I have the same nightmare.
My master and fellow disciples begged me to avenge them and kill King El!

“I’ve waited for more than a hundred years for this day!

“I wouldn’t hesitate to sacrifice everyone in Jianghai city!”
