Chapter 30: Martial Artists Gather, Conflict Arises!
Time slowed. Tomorrow would be Zhang Sanfeng’s centennial birthday, but the atmosphere on Mount Wudang remained heavy and sombre.
“We still haven’t found Master!”
“Where could he have gone?”
“It’s so strange. Why would Master suddenly leave the mountain?”
The Wudang Seven Heroes, except for the paralysed Yu Daiyan, gathered in the hall. Their expressions were clouded with worry. Neither Song Yuanqiao nor Zhang Cuishan could fathom the reason for Zhang Sanfeng’s disappearance.
For days, they had scoured the mountain without success. The most plausible conclusion was that their master had descended the mountain, but his reasoning eluded them entirely.
“Alas, how could we possibly understand Master’s thoughts?” Mo Shenggu sighed. “Perhaps he has something urgent to attend to.”
Compared to Zhang Sanfeng’s wisdom and strength, they were far behind, unable to guess his intentions.
“Enough!” Song Yuanqiao, the eldest disciple and current head of Wudang, interjected. “Master is far too powerful for anything to happen to him. Rather than worry about his absence, we should focus on what lies ahead tomorrow.”
“Tomorrow is Master’s hundredth birthday. Even though he isn’t here, the celebration must go on. Otherwise, the martial artists gathered at the foot of the mountain won’t let it slide.”Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Mo Shenggu’s aura exuded authority, forcing many of the weaker martial artists to comply, surrendering their swords. Others hesitated, choosing to linger at the mountain’s base rather than risk confrontation.
Suddenly, a sharp voice broke the air.
“Does this rule apply to my Yitian Sword as well, Mo Seventh Hero?”
The speaker was none other than Miejue Shitai, leading her disciples from Emei. She stepped up to the Sword Releasing Stone, her expression cold and commanding.
[Miejue Shitai can be translated as “The Absolute Extinction Venerable Nun” or “Reverend of Absolute Annihilation,” reflecting her severe and ruthless nature.]
“The Yitian Sword is exempt,” Mo Shenggu replied evenly. “But all other weapons must be left behind.”
As Zhang Sanfeng’s disciple, Mo Shenggu knew well of Wudang’s delicate relationship with Emei. While the Yitian Sword was Emei’s treasured weapon, it was unrealistic to demand its surrender. Thus, he offered a compromise.
“Is that so?” Miejue Shitai’s tone turned icy, her gaze sharp. “And what if Emei refuses to comply?”
Her domineering nature clashed with Mo Shenggu’s calm resolve. She expected Wudang to yield, as it had often done in the past.
But this time, she miscalculated. Mo Shenggu’s gaze hardened, and a faint killing intent emanated from him.
“Overstepping your bounds, are we?” His tone remained calm, yet carried a chilling edge. “If Emei refuses to disarm, then none of your disciples will leave this mountain alive.”
