Chapter 441, Volume 1: Panic Shakes the Martial World

Chapter 441 A Volume of Shock Shakes the Martial World
Yujia Village.

In the bamboo forest, Ying Xun and his group were watching the sparring match between Yu Yue and the God of Catchers.

Although the two are not top-tier experts, they are still first-rate figures in the martial arts world, and their fight is quite entertaining.

Ultimately, by stopping short of a direct confrontation, the two were evenly matched.

"Brother Yu, even though you've lost your 'Qilin Arm,' your skills are still extraordinary. I admire you." The God of Catcher rarely smiled, and he clasped his hands in a gesture of flattery.

"The Soul-Locking Ring and Soul-Locking Palm of the God of Catcher are also exceptional. I am fortunate to have the opportunity to spar with you, and I have no regrets."

Just as the two were talking, Yu Chuchu ran over.

Just like in the original story, Yu Chuchu wanted Bu Jingyun to help stop the God of Catching, but Bu Jingyun didn't find the God of Catching at all when he went to Jiaozhou City.

Then, he and Yu Chuchu encountered the pursuit of the World Society and spent the night outside before returning.

Then, Bu Jingyun slowly walked out of the forest.

"Senior Brother Yun."

"Junior Brother Yun."

Nie Feng and Qin Shuang spoke at the same time and walked towards Bu Jingyun.

"Why are you here?"

Compared to the joy of the two, Bu Jingyun appeared very indifferent, and his gaze towards them, especially towards Qin Shuang, was very complicated.

There was resentment, and also guilt.

Conversely, Qin Shuang also had mixed feelings about Bu Jingyun: "Brother Ying told me that you are in Yujia Village, so Junior Brother Feng and I came to see you."

"Just here to take a look?"

Having just been pursued by the World Society yesterday, Bu Jingyun is now quite frightened and wary of Qin Shuang and Nie Feng.

Nie Feng frowned: "Senior Brother Yun, what do you mean by that?"

"It's nothing." Bu Jingyun said coldly, then turned to Bu Shen: "Six months is too short to kill Xiong Ba."

"Why did you kill your own master?"

As Bu Jingyun slowly stepped forward, he coldly replied, "Because he killed a godfather who was closer to me than my own father. This grudge must be avenged."

"To kill Xiong Ba, countless innocent lives must first be killed. As an enforcer of the law, I must stop this slaughter."

The way the God of Catchers stopped Bu Jingyun was, in a large sense, similar to how Nameless stopped the Sword Saint in the original story.

Although Xiong Ba was a powerful and ruthless figure who brought much strife to the martial arts world, he cannot be described as a completely evil person.

Although he committed many outrageous acts in his quest for supremacy, it is undeniable that the turbulent martial world finally ushered in a brief period of peace because of him.

Everyone feared Xiong Ba and could only submit to him. This was undoubtedly a good thing for ordinary people, because they could finally live in peace and not worry about being caught up in the feuds of the martial arts world when they went out.

Wuming knew all too well how terrifying the martial world was; in a battle between martial artists, no matter which side won, only ordinary people would suffer.

After more than a decade of fighting, the martial arts world has finally stabilized. The World Society has become the dominant force in the martial arts world. Although it is easily broken up, it is still better than continuing the conflict.

The Sword Saint represents those who are unwilling to submit to Xiong Ba. If Xiong Ba wins the battle between him and Xiong Ba, then things will be fine, and the status quo in the martial arts world will remain the same.

However, if the Sword Saint wins, the martial world will surely be thrown into chaos, and various forces will once again stir up trouble. That's why Nameless stepped forward to stop the Sword Saint from fighting the Overlord.

After all, no one knows whether Xiong Ba's death will lead to the establishment of a new order or an even more chaotic storm.

Of course, besides that, the reason why the God of Catcher wanted to stop Bu Jingyun might also be because he and Xiong Ba were father and son.

Yu Yue was unaware of these things, but he simply said, "God of Catchers, Brother Bu now possesses the Qilin Arm, and his swordsmanship is unfathomable. He is not easy to deal with."

Of course, the God of Catchers knew that Yu Yue was thinking of him, but his mind was made up.

"This is my duty, and this battle is imperative."

"Fine, if you want to capture me, then use all your skills and fight me to the death."

Bu Jingyun was extremely arrogant, actually abandoning his sword and using the Cloud-Dispelling Palm to fight against the God of Catchers.

However, Bu Jingyun did have the right to be arrogant. Their initial clashes showed that the God of Catchers was no match for Bu Jingyun.

"You stinky Taoist priest, isn't your brother known in the martial arts world as the God of Catching? How come he can't even beat Bu Jingyun?"

Seeing You Ruo's depressed expression, Ying Xun smiled faintly: "Isn't Bu Jingyun also known as the God of Death? Titles are not the standard for measuring strength."

Although your father kept some secrets from Bu Jingyun and the others, he still put in a lot of effort in teaching them in their early years.

Not to mention, martial arts skills also vary in quality. Your brother's Soul-Seizing Palm and Soul-Locking Ring are certainly good, but they're not even in the same league as the Cloud-Dispelling Palm.

You Ruo nodded thoughtfully and continued to ask, "Didn't my brother practice our family's martial arts? The Broken Sword Technique should be no less powerful than the Cloud-Dispelling Palm, right?"

"It is indeed no less powerful than the Cloud-Dispelling Palm, but your brother will still lose."

"why?"

"Because Bu Jingyun has the Qilin Arm, your brother didn't learn the essence of the Broken Sword Technique."

It's worth mentioning that in the original storyline, Bu Jingyun broke through the Sanjiao Xuanguan during his battle with the God of Catchers.

However, now, thanks to Ying Xun's appearance, he had already helped Bu Jingyun open up the Sanjiao Xuanguan when they met in Lingyun Cave.

Just as Ying Xun said, even though the God of Catchers used his biggest trump card—the Broken Sword Technique—he still couldn't gain any advantage over Bu Jingyun.

In the arena, Bu Jingyun was slightly surprised to see the God of Catcher wielding a soft sword.

"I didn't expect you to be such a skilled swordsman."

"You should say he's a skilled swordsman."

It must be said that the God of Catchers has a clear understanding of himself.

Bu Jingyun glanced at the soft sword: "What kind of swordsmanship is this?"

"Family Sword Technique, the Broken Sword Technique!"

"Broken Sword Technique".

Bu Jingyun reached out and drew the sword stuck in the ground, assuming a fighting stance: "Unheard of, unseen."

"Bu Jingyun, the strongest swordsman must sever all ties of emotion and righteousness when he draws his sword. Bu Jingyun, take this!"

As soon as they finished speaking, the two rushed towards each other.

One used the family's traditional sword technique, the Broken Sword Technique, while the other used the Huo family's sword technique.

Ying Xun's assessment of this was that it was just children fighting, but the others found it very entertaining.

In terms of swordsmanship alone, the Broken Sword Technique is superior to the Huo Family Sword Technique in every aspect.

But as I said before, the God of Catchers did not learn the essence of the Broken Sword Technique.

Bu Jingyun was different. The Huo family sword technique was superb in his hands, especially the "Unexplained Grief" he learned from Wuming, which was so amazing that it even made Ying Xun's system technique react.

It should be noted that the martial arts techniques that can trigger a systemic reaction from Ying Xun are all top-tier in the martial arts world.

Given the contrast, it's understandable that the God of Catchers lost.

Bu Jingyun stood with his sword on his back, looking down slightly at the God of Catcher kneeling on one knee with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth: "It's a pity that you are only impartial and incorruptible. You can sever emotions because of your impartiality, but you cannot sever righteousness."

At the same time, You Ruo and Ying Xun had arrived at the God of Catcher's side. You Ruo helped him up, asking with concern, "Brother, are you alright?"

In a moment of desperation, a cry of "Big Brother!" made the God of Catchers laugh.

"You've finally agreed to call me 'Big Brother'."

After saying that, he looked at Bu Jingyun and said in a deep voice, "You're right. A person who can sever all ties of affection and righteousness is not human at all."

Ying Xun shook his head and continued, "Brother-in-law, your defeat to Bu Jingyun was not because you failed to sever ties, but because you did not grasp the essence of the Broken Sword Technique?"

"What do you mean?"

The "Duan" in "Duanjian Jue" means both to sever and to determine.

Ying Xun had also read the Broken Sword Technique; its intent was not low, and it could be practiced from two perspectives.

On the one hand, it means severing all emotional ties and ties, cutting off all shackles, and seeking to transcend oneself from material things, so as not to be enslaved by form or burdened by material possessions.

On the other hand, it is to distinguish right from wrong and good from evil in the world, and to draw the sword for the sake of all living beings.

The God of Catchers is a member of the public service, known for his impartiality and incorruptibility. However, he chose the first method of cultivation and mistakenly limited the essence of the Broken Sword Technique to severing emotions and ties, completely failing to grasp the transcendence beyond worldly concerns that lies behind it.

It's fair to say that he was lucky not to go astray.

After hearing Ying Xun's explanation, the God of Catchers was somewhat bewildered: "So that's how it is."

"At least that's how I understand it. But you haven't grasped its essence, which is also my father-in-law's fault. It was his teachings that led you astray. But then again, the essence of swordsmanship isn't taught by others, but rather understood by oneself. Brother-in-law, your comprehension is still a bit lacking."

The God of Catchers smiled wryly, opened his mouth, but before he could speak, Bu Jingyun exclaimed in surprise, "You are Xiong Ba's son?!"

"That's right, I am Xiong Ba's only son."

The God of Catchers sighed and removed the mask from half of his face, revealing the four words "Son of the Overlord" engraved on his face.

Then, he began to tell the story of himself and Xiong Ba.

The rest of the story is similar to the original plot. The only difference is that he did not insist on capturing Bu Jingyun in the end. Instead, after Yu Yue entrusted Yu Chuchu to Bu Jingyun, he took Yu Yue away.

Before leaving, Ying Xun looked at Yu Chuchu.

“Miss Yu, sometimes good intentions can backfire. Listen to people and you'll eat your fill. If someone tells you to run away in the future, don't hesitate, just run.”

He didn't actually have a good impression of Chu Chu, but Yu Yue was a nice person, so he was willing to mention her a bit.

Yu Chuchu was stunned, not knowing why Ying Xun was suddenly saying these things to her.

Qin Shuang, on the other hand, glanced thoughtfully at Yu Chuchu and reminded her, "Miss Yu, Brother Ying's ability to predict the future is no less than that of the Divine Physiognomist Mud Bodhisattva. Since he has said this, he will not be making baseless accusations."

Yu Chuchu nodded blankly, then bowed to Ying Xun.

"Thank you, Master Ying. I will remember this."

"Brother Qin, Nie Feng, are you coming with us, or staying to meet with Bu Jingyun?"

Qin Shuang and Nie Feng exchanged a glance and replied, "Brother Ying, let's talk to Junior Brother Yun, and then we'll meet again in the World Society."

"Alright, let's get together again sometime."

After returning to Jiaozhou City, the group stayed for a few more days. Once the injuries had healed, the constable took Yu Yue and left.

Accompanying them were Granny Wushuang, Mud Bodhisattva, and three little girls, Mingxin, Minghui, and Xiaobianzi. They were also going to Anju City in Gyeonggi Province, and happened to be going the same way as the God of Catchers.

As for Ying Xun and You Ruo, they set off for the World Society.

At the same time, Wushuang City received a message from Granny Wushuang, as well as the scroll of panic list.

Sword Pavilion.

Holding the list of alarmed figures, Mingyue hesitated at the gate for a long time before finally mustering the courage to knock on the door.

"come in."

After receiving the Sword Saint's permission, Mingyue pushed open the door and entered the Sword Residence.

At this moment, the Sword Saint was sitting cross-legged under an old tree, closing his eyes to cultivate his inner energy. He looked like an ordinary old man, with none of his former sharpness remaining.

If the former Sword Saint was a sharp sword drawn from its sheath, giving people a feeling of unparalleled sharpness.

The current Sword Saint is like a sword sheathed, as if his whole being has merged into the world.

He opened his eyes, slowly got up, and laughed, "Ming girl, why aren't you doing your job as the city lord? What are you doing here looking for this old man?"

“Senior, this is the list of alarms compiled by Young Master Ying. I thought you might be interested in taking a look, so I specially brought it to you.” Mingyue presented a scroll of silk with both hands, and pondered for a moment, “Also… I’m a little unsure whether I should help spread the list of alarms. I would like to ask for your opinion?”

The swordsman was taken aback at first, then reached out and grabbed the scroll of silk.

When I saw the last line, the sixteenth shock came—me.

The Sword Saint couldn't help but exclaim in amazement: "What superb swordsmanship! Just six words contain six different sword intents, especially the last word 'I,' which has the power to dominate heaven and earth. It seems that the boy's skill and swordsmanship have improved again. Genius! That boy is indeed a swordsman of unparalleled talent, one in a thousand years. No one in the world can surpass him... not even that person. Hahaha..."

Amidst the loud laughter, an incomparably sharp sword aura surged forth like a tide, instantly chilling Mingyue to the bone. She felt as if a sword were held to her neck, as if she might be beheaded at any moment.

The powerful aura, as imposing as a mountain, made it extremely difficult for Mingyue to even breathe.

Noticing her unusual behavior, the Sword Saint concealed the aura and sword energy he had inadvertently revealed, and smiled, "Ming girl, you are now the city lord of Wushuang City. Whether or not you need help is not a question for me, but for yourself."

Mingyue remained silent for a long while before speaking.

"Senior, if this list of alarms is spread out by our Peerless City, I'm afraid it will attract countless experts. I'm afraid..."

"Afraid that the influx of martial arts practitioners will turn Wushuang City upside down?"

Mingyue nodded honestly and couldn't help but sigh.

"Wushuang City has only just gotten on the right track, and it really can't afford any more setbacks."

"Girl, you are a good city lord, but today I will teach you a lesson. The most dangerous thing in life is to be timid and hesitant. The reason why Wushuang City has stood for thousands of years is not because of its military might to dominate the area, but because of its fearless courage!"

The Sword Saint looked arrogant, his bright, star-like eyes seeming to radiate a captivating sword light.

It can cleave heaven and earth and dominate all things!

Mingyue was startled and respectfully said, "Mingyue will remember this, thank you for your teachings, senior."

The Sword Saint nodded and smiled, handing the silk to her. He said leisurely, "The martial world has been peaceful for too long. A little more excitement might not be a bad thing. In fact, it's a good thing for you. You grow through challenges."

Having said that, the Sword Saint's figure flickered, and he appeared outside the gate of the Sword Residence.

"Senior, where are you going?"

"To see an old friend."

The Sword Saint did not turn around, and his figure had already disappeared.

Afterwards, Mingyue hurriedly returned to the city lord's mansion and ordered the printing of the panic list.

In today's world, the World Alliance is undoubtedly the number one power, but Wushuang City is not far behind, with branch altars spread across more than a hundred places in the Divine Continent.

When a behemoth like Wushuang City wants to spread a message, it will naturally spread throughout the entire Central Plains very quickly.

Moreover, the news itself is quite shocking.

Soon, a list of shocking events appeared out of nowhere, shaking the entire martial arts world.
