Medical and Martial God

”As expected of the most talented in Sword Cottage over centuries, you’re barely stepping into your 40s and your cultivation has already reached the Eighth Realm. You surpass even the talent of the Sword God and the Sword Demon, both of whom entered the Eighth Realm only after turning 60.”

Nantian Jun gritted his teeth and said.

Back then, he accepted Sword Saint Ge Qing as his disciple, imparting all his knowledge, and Sword Saint Ge Qing had unfettered access to all of Sword Cottage’s resources.

Yet what resulted was a traitor!

”Master, three senior uncles, it’s not that I look down on you, but none of you four can kill me.”

Sword Saint Ge Qing stopped laughing and spoke proudly.

The four Sword Masters were filled with deceit, yet they had to admit that despite having one foot in the Eighth Realm,

there is a significant gap between having one foot in and having both feet in the Eighth Realm.

Even if the four joined forces, they certainly would not be a match for Sword Saint Ge Qing.

”Alright, enough of the teasing, let’s get to business!”

Sword Saint Ge Qing put away his smile and said:

”The global martial artists, Heavenly Sect, Hell’s Gate, Restorer Alliance, and that group of rebels led by Lin Feng have already wreaked havoc on the Eternal Kingdom. It’s in utter chaos.”

”Now, millions of enemy troops have split into four paths, arriving at the four major ports of King Island in the east, west, south, and north, and war is on the verge of breaking out.”

”The Three Judicator Families have issued a decree, ordering all civilian martial artists on King Island to join the army and fight against the invading enemy alongside the Eternal Kingdom’s forces.”

”I’ve come under the command of the Golden Family’s Clan Leader to persuade Sword Cottage to join the war.”

Stephanie was unaware of Sword Saint Ge Qing’s visit to Sword Cottage; Ge Qing came directly under the orders of the Golden Family’s Clan Leader.

Moreover, neither the Golden Family’s Clan Leader, Sword Saint Ge Qing, nor anyone else from the Three Judicator Families knew about the Long Family’s recent surprise attack on Sword Cottage.

If they had known, the Golden Family’s Clan Leader would not have sent Sword Saint Ge Qing but would have followed Stephanie’s plan to cooperate with the Long Family Three Tigers to destroy Sword Cottage after the southern army arrived.

”What if Sword Cottage refuses to join the war?” Nantian Jun asked.

Sword Saint Ge Qing shrugged and said, ”The Golden Family’s Clan Leader instructed that if Sword Cottage refuses to join the war, in order to prevent them from siding with the enemy, I am to slaughter everyone at Sword Cottage.”

The faces of the Four Sword Masters instantly became extremely grim.

The four exchanged glances!

Nantian Jun said with utmost determination:

”Over two thousand years ago, when the Three Judicator Families first took over the Eternal Islands, they tried to recruit Sword Cottage; Sword Cottage did not agree;”

”In the past two thousand years, the Three Judicator Families have tried recruiting Sword Cottage countless times, and Sword Cottage has decisively refused every time;”

”And this time, Sword Cottage will not agree either!”

It’s not that Sword Cottage is stubborn!

But rather too proud!

Sword Cottage simply looks down on the Three Judicator Families!

Moreover, for Sword Cottage, martial artists from all over the world are like fellow countrymen; wanting Sword Cottage to help the Three Judicator Families and the Eternal Kingdom eliminate their own kind is absolutely impossible!

”I knew it would be so, so I’ll have to kill everyone at Sword Cottage then.”

Sword Saint Ge Qing said with an incomparably calm demeanor.

Repeatedly, in his eyes, the people of Sword Cottage were like a bunch of pigs and dogs, and massacring Sword Cottage was hardly a challenge to him!

And so it was!

”The people of Sword Cottage never fear death; even if we die in battle, we will never compromise!”

The four Sword Masters drew their swords with resolute faces.

Though they knew this battle would be their last, that Sword Cottage would inevitably fall.

The pride of Sword Cottage could not be abandoned;

The integrity of Sword Cottage could not be discarded.

”Go to hell!”

Sword Saint Ge Qing said calmly.

He did not draw his sword!

Yet an overwhelming surge of sword qi swept through the air.

In an instant, the summit of One Sword Peak was leveled by the sword qi.

The four Sword Masters now seemed to be in an ocean formed by the gathered sword qi, with raging waves and surging sword qi.

The four were like small boats in a tsunami, on the verge of collapsing at any moment, yet they stubbornly resisted, defended, and fought desperately.

”Is this the Eighth Realm?”

The four Sword Masters tried to rush to Sword Saint Ge Qing, hoping to perish together with him and save all the disciples of Sword Cottage.

But Sword Saint Ge Qing stood with his sword in his arms, smiling, without moving an inch.

The wave of sword qi alone made it difficult for them to advance.

”You’re quite tenacious. I seem to have underestimated you.”

Seeing that his wave of sword qi could not immediately kill the four Sword Masters and would only slowly wear them down.

He merged his right index and middle fingers into a Sword Finger, preparing to finish off the four Sword Masters with a direct move.

At this moment!

The four Sword Masters’ hearts sank, thinking: My fate is sealed, Sword Cottage is finished!

”Stop!”

At that moment, a shout came!

The move Sword Saint Ge Qing was about to use to finish off the four Sword Masters was never unleashed, he looked towards the sound.

The four Sword Masters also looked towards the sound!

Only to see Ye Xiu and Qin Qing walking onto One Sword Peak.

”Little Wang, it’s dangerous here, leave quickly!”

Nantian Jun shouted.

He knew Ye Xiu was strong, strong enough to instantly kill many people from the Long Family, but he also felt the overwhelming power of Sword Saint Ge Qing.

Ye Xiu was definitely not a match for Sword Saint Ge Qing!

He dared not call Ye Xiu by his real name, nor even by the nickname Ji Ye.

He feared that once Sword Saint Ge Qing knew Ye Xiu’s identity, he would kill Ye Xiu!

He knew that Sword Saint Ge Qing was arrogant and disdained killing nobodies.

So he called out ’Little Wang’!

”Little Wang, you aren’t a Sword Cottage disciple, there’s no need to get involved; leave here at once.”

Beigong Wudi shouted, these words were meant for Sword Saint Ge Qing to hear; Little Wang is not a Sword Cottage disciple, so when you massacre Sword Cottage, you must not kill Little Wang.

”Little Wang, you’ve repeatedly violated Sword Cottage’s rules, climbing One Sword Peak without permission, what’s your intent? If not for the special circumstances today, I’d have taught you a lesson.”

”Seems I went too easy on you last time, and you still dare to come up.”

The other two Sword Masters, ’Qiu Lianye’ and ’Tu Baili’, subtly drove Ye Xiu away, distancing themselves from him.

Ye Xiu ignored them, and said to Qin Qing:

”Are these four old guys of good character?”

”Not bad!” Qin Qing nodded.

The mindset of the four Sword Masters immediately collapsed, now is not the time to discuss our character, damn it!

Leave quickly!

Stay any longer and it’s over!

”Do you four think I’m a fool?”

Sword Saint Ge Qing chuckled and said:

”The more you distance yourselves from Little Wang, the more you drive him away, the more it shows you care about him. Is it that he is this year’s genius emerging from Sword Cottage’s disciple assessment?”

As he spoke, he gestured, dispersing the surging sword qi wave, closely inspecting Ye Xiu who was walking over, while completely ignoring Qin Qing.

”This...”

The four Sword Masters were anxious, they hadn’t expected that their words would instead lead Sword Saint Ge Qing to mistakenly believe Ye Xiu was Sword Cottage’s genius.

With good intentions, they inadvertently put Ye Xiu in peril!

”First you betray your sect, then you intend to kill your own mentor and slaughter all your fellow disciples, Ge Qing, you’re worse than scum.”

Ye Xiu walked up to Sword Saint Ge Qing and spoke with utter disdain.

Qin Qing did not follow him but stayed beside the four Sword Masters, using the Life Totem’s energy to heal their injuries.
