Transcending Heavens: Starting with the Ancient Tomb Sect

Chapter 116 Senior Brother: Junior Brother, I'm Here to Help You (Part 1)

Xiangyang, outskirts.

Sword Tomb.

The sound of horses' hooves clattering, the jingling of horse bells ringing.

"Whoa!" X6

The six figures dismounted from their horses and then tied their reins to the trunks of the trees.

Then, looking up, they heard several provocative cries of eagles, followed by a massive figure spiraling down from the sky.

Bang!

Because it fell rather hastily, the Divine Eagle broke off the tree canopy below and finally landed on its feet in a tumble and scramble manner, making a drifting albatross-like landing.

*Snap!* X6.

Yue Que, Xiaolongnu, and the other five people slapped their foreheads in unison, but since they were all quite worldly-wise, they didn't laugh at them.

The landing posture of the Divine Eagle has never been properly determined.

Unfortunately, none of them had any flying experience and could not teach it; they could only let the eagle correct itself slowly.

Fortunately, the Divine Eagle was a spiritual creature with a body almost made of iron; otherwise, a random landing could have cost it half its life.

The Divine Eagle casually glanced at the crater in front of it, then casually shook off the mud, completely unconcerned.

After glancing at the familiar surroundings, the Divine Eagle dashed off, grabbed a Bodhi snake from a patch of weeds, and began to eat it, gutting it and eating spicy snacks.

This is the taste of home.

"Is this the outskirts of Xiangyang?"

Gongsun Lü'e's eyes gleamed with curiosity as she quietly observed the scene with her hands behind her back: "Is this the Sword Tomb?"

Although the Valley of Heartbreak was within the territory of Xiangyang, Gongsun Lü'e had only heard of the city but had never seen it in person.

This time, I went to Zhongnan Mountain with my master. The big cities I passed through on the way there and back were not as big as Xiangyang.

She thought that if she had time, she would like to take a stroll around Xiangyang City.

When she saw the Condor Heroes grab a Bodhi snake and start eating it, Gongsun Lü'e said, "Ah, so this is the snake."

Sister Diao is truly amazing!

Gongsun Lü'e had also taken the same medicine, but it wasn't snake gallbladders. Instead, it was a pill made by Yue Que and Li Mochou using some precious Chinese herbs from the Valley of Heartbreak.

After removing the toxins from the snake gallbladder and supplementing it with other medicines, the Great Rejuvenation Pill of the Ancient Tomb Sect was refined.

As for the effects, you'll know once you try it.

Now, after taking this elixir and combining it with the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique, the junior sister has already shown signs of great strength. However, due to her refined and cultured demeanor, she still appears delicate and frail.

"Eat less to avoid a relapse of toxins."

Following Gongsun Lüe's words of praise, Li Mochou glanced at the Condor Heroes and advised, "Otherwise, it will look bad again."

Tweet!

Upon hearing this, the eagle tilted its head. It was still quite vain; after giving a persuasive cry, it even ignored the half-eaten Bodhi snake at its feet, casually tossing it aside. Then it began to stroll around, seemingly searching for some old adversary.

Xiaolongnu, Hong Lingbo, and Lu Wushuang were inspecting the Ancient Tomb branch. They found that the branch leader, Yang Guo, was quite responsible.

It seems there are signs of people specifically raising Bosphorus snakes.

Yue Que glanced around casually, then leaped to the spot where he had previously hidden the secret manual and envelope for his junior brother Yang Guo.

Half-squatting in the tree, Yue Que looked at the newly arranged tree hole, first knocked on it, then broke off a branch and poked it inside. After sensing what was inside, he smiled with satisfaction.

After discarding the branch, Yue Que reached inside and took out what was hidden there.

Unlike Yue Que, who used his senior brother's Taoist robe, Yang Guo, his junior brother, used a new cloth to wrap two secret manuals and a letter inside.

The manuals were all from Ouyang Feng's "Toad Stance" and "Snake Control Technique." After opening them and examining them carefully, they were indeed Ouyang Feng's unique skills. Upon seeing this, Yue Que couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

Junior Brother Yang Guo was, after all, a disciple of the Ancient Tomb Sect, and his essence had long been etched with the nature of the Ancient Tomb Sect.

For Yang Guo, who had once been a beggar, it was unimaginable to most people how much of an impact his senior brother Yue Que's words, "I will not enjoy it all by myself," had on him.

That meant they didn't treat him like an outsider, but they also didn't treat him like a human being.

After putting the two manuals away, Yue Que opened the letter left by his junior brother Yang Guo. The first thing he saw was a greeting from his junior brother.

"Hmm"

"~~

"It's just that your tone wasn't very good."

As Yue Que read the letter, he commented, "I get a feeling of gritted teeth."

"ha!"

With a light laugh, Yue Que said, "Junior Brother Yang Guo is being mischievous again."

"Oh? I knew it."

"Once the complaints are over, the rest of the conversation is much more normal." Yue Que skipped over Yang Guo's mischievous remarks and then focused his attention on the following content: "Hmm? What do you mean by the previous suggestion being unreasonable?"

What suggestion?

Yue Que was stunned for a moment, then realized what the suggestion was: the idea of ​​"the scripture in the snake".

He, along with the people of the Ancient Tomb and even the Condor Heroes, tried to capture the dragon beside his junior brother Yang Guo, but unfortunately they searched the entire Jian family but still couldn't find the giant python.

It can only be said that the python, which can fight the Divine Eagle to the death and even gain a slight advantage, truly deserves to be called a spiritual creature. Its ability to avoid misfortune and seek good fortune is extremely efficient.

Upon closer inspection of the letter, Yang Guo wrote: "Brother, you've forgotten that snakes shed their skin. If the manual were hidden inside a snake's belly, it might end up on the road during one of its shedding cycles."

Most importantly, snakes are too soft and tend to curl up in a ball from time to time, which is not suitable for hiding secret manuals and makes them extremely easy to wear out.

Yue Que sat upright on the tree branch, staring at the words "snake molt" for a long time. After a while, he nodded and uttered three words:

That makes sense.

"That's definitely my problem. Maybe I should find a monkey or something."

1

As he muttered to himself, Yue Que continued reading and saw that Yang Guo had also mentioned the same method in the letter, thinking that finding a species like an ape would be much better.

Just as Yue Que continued reading the contents of the letter, suddenly a series of eagle cries came from high in the sky, the chirping sounds reaching his ears.

Without prior arrangement, everyone present, including the Divine Eagle, looked up at the sky, where the pair of white eagles belonging to Master Guo were circling overhead, constantly emitting provocative cries.

This is clearly aimed at The Return of the Condor Heroes.

It is clear.

The cries of the Divine Eagle earlier were a provocation, and also a notification from the Ancient Tomb to the Guo family.

"Weren't those white eagles scared of being trampled?"

Below, Li Mochou looked up at the white eagles circling in the sky, quite surprised. She had personally witnessed the pair of white eagles being trampled by the divine eagle that day.

"That's normal."

Yue Que put the envelope and the secret manual into his pocket. A fallen leaf drifted down next to Li Mochou and explained, "Like master, like eagle, because the true owner of those white eagles is Guo Jing."

Guo Jing was very stubborn, and so was Bai Diao.

Noticing his sister-in-law's gaze, especially as she became excited upon seeing Brother Condor, Yue Que cut her off beforehand: "If Brother Condor has any questions, you should ask Little Pervert Zhou Botong and Sword Demon Dugu Qiubai. It's none of our business."

"alright."

Yue Que clapped his hands to draw everyone's attention before saying, "Everyone, get ready, because we're about to face more than just Madam Guo."

Yue Que planned to divide everyone into appropriate teams. When facing a powerful enemy, he would never let his people stick together. Instead, he would try to make use of the Ancient Tomb Sect's strengths to fight the enemy, so as not to be captured by the enemy in one fell swoop.

"Long'er".

"This is for you." Yue Que walked to Xiaolongnu's side, placed the things that his Uncle Yin Zhiping of the Quanzhen Sect had prepared for his junior brother Yang Guo in Xiaolongnu's hands, and then whispered in her ear, "If possible, Long'er, you should give this directly to Madam Guo."

Xiaolongnu nodded seriously upon hearing this. After Yue Que straightened the slightly crooked hairpin for her, Xiaolongnu turned to Gongsun Lü'e and said, "Lü'e, come with me."

After saying that, Xiaolongnu took the lead and walked out of the Jian family's residence.

"?"

Gongsun Lü'e, who was pondering teaming up with her two senior sisters Hong Lingbo and Lu Wushuang, suddenly realized that she was Xiaolongnu's disciple, not her senior sister Li Mochou's disciple.

With an awkward laugh, Gongsun Lü'e stuck out her tongue and quickly followed.

She was afraid that if she walked too slowly, her master, Little Dragon Girl, would scold her for being too stupid.

Li Mochou, Hong Lingbo, and Lu Wushuang, naturally a trio of master and disciples, walked out of the Jian family in another direction.

Yue Que, on the other hand, was waiting for his junior brother Yang Guo to arrive.

He understands his junior brother just as his junior brother understands him.

The cry of the Divine Eagle signifies the arrival of the Ancient Tomb Sect, while the cry of the White Eagle signifies the arrival of the Guo family's forces.

soon.

The person Yue Que had been waiting for had finally arrived.

"—The footsteps were numerous; it wasn't just my junior brother Yang Guo."

"But there are four people."

With his eyes slightly closed, Yue Que leaned against a large tree, resting and quietly waiting for his target to arrive.

A short while later.

The great swordsman Yang Guo, along with Guo Fu and the two Wu brothers, arrived at the Jian family.

As soon as Yang Guo stepped into the Jian family, his subconscious warning system started blaring. He took a deep breath, glanced around, and then his gaze fell on his senior brother Yue Que, who was leaning against a tree with his arms crossed and his eyes closed, seemingly resting.

The two brothers, Da Wu and Xiao Wu, who were walking at the back, still had a stress reaction when they saw Yue Que, even though they had been mentally prepared beforehand.

My muscles were tense all over; I was extremely nervous.

The two brothers remembered very clearly how they were defeated in one move that day and what their opponent thought of them.

"Senior Brother!" Upon seeing Yue Que, Yang Guo took a deep breath and respectfully bowed.

Yue Que opened his eyes, a smile on his lips, and greeted, "Oh, junior brother, so you're the Divine Dragon Hero!"

However, before Yang Guo could reply, Miss Guo jumped out and greeted him cheerfully, saying, "Ah, so the person my parents were talking about is you."

"I never imagined that you, Golden Boy, were my senior brother's senior."

At this point, Guo Fu seemed to remember something. A faint blush appeared on her delicate, jade-like face. Her eyebrows were curved, her nose was slightly upturned, and she smiled like a blooming rose.

With a shy blush, Miss Guo, who hadn't quite grasped the sarcastic tone of the others, first subconsciously straightened her clothes before properly bowing to Yue Que in the manner of a well-bred young lady, and said in a sweet voice, "This humble woman, Guo Fu, greets Senior Brother."

The rumored spoiled eldest daughter of the Guo family was surprisingly well-behaved and polite, which startled Yue Que and Yang Guo, the two brothers.

Almost simultaneously, the same thought popped into their minds: What kind of demon has possessed Miss Guo?

Yue Que: This version of Guo Fu seems alright!

Yang Guo: Oh dear, Sister Fu, your big brother is going to exorcise the demon!
