Chapter 21 Quanzhen Sect and Ancient Tomb Sect
Chapter 21 Quanzhen Sect and Ancient Tomb Sect
At the same time, Li Ke realized that the Demon Slayer world might have a world will.
Moreover, when he realized that the will of that world was not very friendly to him.
In an orphanage in Tokyo, Nightmare stands amidst a pile of mangled flesh, arms outstretched, a twisted smile on her face.
"I've finally found the traitor's trail, Lord Muzan! This is wonderful!"
……
On the other hand, while Li Ke, the martial arts master, faces new challenges in Demon Slayer, he does not give up.
Instead, under the guise of fishing and martial arts practice, they once again entered the territory belonging to the Ancient Tomb Sect.
I want to find the pool of water that leads directly to the underground secret chamber of the Ancient Tomb Sect and retrieve the fragments of the Nine Yin Manual.
After all, this is currently the easiest martial arts manual to obtain.
For those who want to combine the strengths of a hundred martial arts schools, create a unique and powerful martial arts manual, and ultimately reach the pinnacle of martial arts.
If Li Ke could truly obtain the fragments of the Nine Yin Manual, it would be of great help to him.
"Grandma Sun, that stinky Taoist priest is fishing and practicing martial arts again within the territory of our Ancient Tomb Sect."
When Li Mochou returned to Granny Sun's side, she spoke with a worried expression.
In the past few months, Li Ke has spent a considerable amount of time fishing and practicing martial arts in the area belonging to the Ancient Tomb Sect.
Because the hidden entrance to the Ancient Tomb Sect could not be exposed, and because Xiaolongnu needed to be protected, she was not allowed to go out at Granny Sun's request and could only stay in the Ancient Tomb Sect to practice her skills.
This really frustrated him, since she appeared aloof and cold on the surface, but in reality, she was warm-hearted despite her cold exterior and couldn't stay still at all.
Staying in the Ancient Tomb Sect to practice martial arts for a long time was no less than being imprisoned for her.
"Let him be, it's just catching a few fish."
Grandma Sun smiled and said something after feeding Little Dragon Girl a sip of goat milk.
Granny Sun was actually quite satisfied with the fact that Li Mochou had been forced to stay in the Ancient Tomb Sect to practice her skills recently, and that her skills had improved rapidly.
Therefore, she did not drive Li Ke away, but instead wanted to use the young Taoist priest to temper Li Mochou's temperament.
"Mother-in-law, if you don't get rid of him soon, I will."
As she spoke, Li Mochou, who could no longer sit still, picked up her longsword and walked out of the hidden cave entrance of the Ancient Tomb Sect.
"Ugh."
Seeing this, Granny Sun sighed, knowing that it would be too difficult to change Li Mochou's personality.
Li Mochou was exceptionally intelligent from a young age, often learning quickly and understanding things immediately, making her an outstanding talent for martial arts.
But perhaps it was because he had stayed in the Ancient Tomb Sect for too long, or perhaps he had heard too many stories about the outside world from her.
From a young age, he longed for the outside world and had a restless heart, often sneaking out of the ancient tomb to play on Zhongnan Mountain.
Moreover, Li Mochou was unwilling to swear an oath to "never leave the tomb" and learn the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, which only the sect leader could master.
This had been a headache for Granny Sun for a long time, a headache concerning the succession of the Ancient Tomb Sect.
Granny Sun reached out and touched Little Dragon Girl's cheek, then sighed:
"Little Dragon Girl, you mustn't follow your senior sister's example. Your mother-in-law is getting old and doesn't have many years left to live."
If you're any more unreliable and cause the Ancient Tomb Sect's lineage to end, I, your mother-in-law, will have no face to see you, young lady.
"Giggle..."
The little dragon girl, whose cheek was being touched, was too young to understand what her grandmother was saying. She just waved her little hands, trying to grab her grandmother's fingers.
Seeing this, Granny Sun smiled and continued to tease the baby-like Little Dragon Girl in the quilt.
……
"Hey, this is our Ancient Tomb Sect's territory. What are you doing here all the time?"
Looking at the girl, who was wearing a gray-white long dress and had her hair tied back with small strips of cloth on both sides of her temples, she appeared to be around fourteen or fifteen years old.
Li Ke's eyes lit up immediately. Wasn't this Li Mochou, the Red Serpent Fairy from The Return of the Condor Heroes?
Judging from her appearance and age, she definitely hasn't met Lu Zhanyuan yet and is still a somewhat rebellious senior sister.
"Speak up, what are you staring at me for?"
Seeing Li Ke staring at her like a lecherous scoundrel, Li Mochou snorted coldly.
"Our Quanzhen Sect and the Ancient Tomb Sect are originally one family. Why can't I come to my own home to fish and practice martial arts?"
"Who said we were originally one family? We are not one family. Your Quanzhen Sect's founder, Wang Chongyang, was a heartless man."
As expected of Li Mochou, she speaks without any restraint.
If any disciple of the Quanzhen Sect were to hear Li Mochou dare to slander their patriarch in this way, it would be astonishing.
Needless to say, what follows is likely to be another life-or-death battle in the martial arts world.
"Having seen the vast ocean, other waters seem insignificant; having beheld the clouds of Wushan, other clouds are not worth seeing."
Upon hearing Li Ke suddenly recite a line of poetry, Li Mochou couldn't help but ponder the meaning of the poem.
He immediately recalled the story of his grandmaster Lin Chaoying and Wang Chongyang that Granny Sun had mentioned.
Knowing that Li Ke seemed to be talking about the story between the founders of the two schools, he immediately gritted his teeth and said:
"What nonsense is this poem? Wang Chongyang was a heartless man who dared to do it but not admit it, which made my ancestor regret it for the rest of his life."
After a moment of silence, Li Ke said:
"To let down someone who loves you so deeply, whatever the reason, is indeed something I did wrong."
Li Mochou was stunned upon hearing Li Ke's words.
I never expected that Li Ke would admit that his ancestor Wang Chongyang did indeed do wrong in the matter of Lin Chaoying.
"Are you really a Taoist priest from the Quanzhen School?"
Li Mochou looked at Li Ke with a strange expression.
As she spoke, she circled around Li Ke, as if looking at something quite astonishing.
"No one in this world is perfect. There are always shortcomings or regrettable aspects. It is not advisable to excessively mythologize a person, nor is it advisable to excessively belittle a person."
After a pause, Li Ke said:
"Acknowledging one's own shortcomings and accepting the imperfections of others is an essential part of personal growth."
"You're a very unusual, smelly Taoist priest."
Li Mochou's eyes lit up as she spoke, then she raised her head and said:
"I allow you to fish and practice martial arts here in our Ancient Tomb Sect, but you cannot go near that area."
As she spoke, Li Mochou pointed to a mountain in the distance, which was actually the location of the Ancient Tomb Sect.
Upon hearing this, Li Ke nodded slightly, but a surge of joy welled up inside him.
The Ancient Tomb Sect and the Quanzhen Sect are described as being very close in the original work, only mentioned as being located in the back mountain of the Quanzhen Sect.
The problem is that the back mountain of the Quanzhen Sect is the Zhongnan Mountain range, which stretches for hundreds of miles. Who knows which area the Ancient Tomb Sect is located in, or which pool of water connects to the secret chamber of the Ancient Tomb Sect?
Now, with Li Mochou's casual gesture, a large area that needed to be explored was significantly reduced.
This brought him one step closer to finding the Nine Yin Manual, which naturally delighted Li Ke.
However, at this moment, Li Mochou seemed to remember something and asked:
"You stinky Taoist priest, what's your name? You still haven't told me your name."
