45 – The First of the Heavens and the First of the Earth(1)

In the end, I returned without any results. There was no information I could have gotten from the Sichuan Tang Family. I let out a deep sigh.

In fact, I had already planned for this. Children will eventually become independent. It was no different for master and pupil. Still, though…….

Still, in the end, I wanted to see him off. I didn’t mind him leaving me; I just wanted him to be happy.

I swung my sword wordlessly. Discipline was the best way to clear my mind. I swing the sword as I always do. I cut through the thoughts.

When I woke up, the sun was still hanging in the sky. I sighed and wiped the sweat off my face with a towel. I can’t help but worry.”

“Did you have a peaceful night, Daehyup?”

“Didn’t …… come by yesterday?”

“Sometimes they come by on their walks.”

“Why don’t you come inside?”

Every once in a while, the patriarch of the Jegalese family would come to the house himself. It was a little overwhelming, to be honest, but I didn’t turn them away.

A guest was a guest, after all, and he might come with bad news.

I would prepare a modest meal of food and tea and serve it to him myself. He bowed lightly, then took the teacup from me. He sipped the tea slowly. For a moment, silence fell between us.

“Do you know anything about Biyun?”

“You seem to care very much for her.”

“I’m sorry.”

“Unfortunately, we don’t know anything either.”

“I see…….”

Not even the Jegalese family name. I can’t help but feel disheartened. He’s a Jegalese, after all. I’d have thought he’d have some idea.

No, in a way, it’s natural. There’s no point in tracking down a stranger who doesn’t belong to the clan, I finally sighed.

Gazoo stayed behind for a while, then returned to the main house. Alone, I stared blankly at the sky. It hadn’t been this empty before.

Wordlessly, I turned my head to look at the house, which was never that big, but somehow, it felt empty.

“…… We can’t stay like this forever.”

I stood up again. Since Yan’s departure, Jegalsegae has been taking care of me, but that doesn’t make the empty seat any easier to fill.

But I didn’t plan on sitting around like this. No matter what, she’s left me. If so, I must be much stronger than I am now.

If that’s the case, she’ll come back to me someday. I don’t know what else, I just wish I could see her face one more time.

“I’m not an old man.”

I sighed and picked up my wooden sword again. All I could do now was discipline myself.

In the end, it was my lack of strength that was the bad guy. I began to swing my sword again.

My heart is burning black with each passing day. There are too many obstacles in my way to meet my lord. Bi Yan stuck out her tongue.

For the past three years, she’s been traveling the countryside. Hebei Feng and Jie Galsega have been her backbone, but they’ve only given her opportunities.

It was up to Bi Yan to convince them, and she made the most of the opportunity she was given. She made the most of the opportunity she was given: capturing Magyo.

For the past three years, she’d run this far for that one thing and that one thing only.

“Everything is going well, isn’t it?”

“Yes, it is.”

“But why do you have such a sour look on your face?”

“You have such a sour tone. Do you want to die?”

Similarly, for the past three years, there was no longer any sign of the scholar in Jie Gal Hui as she rolled and rolled with Bi Yan. In a way, it was natural.

The Magi are supposed to be moderately disciplined. At the slightest hint, they would destroy evidence and flee. They were like smoke.

To catch them, one had to go through all sorts of hardships and adversity. Being the kind of person she was, she naturally had a dirty mouth.

“You’re not wrong, though, are you?”

“Because we’ve only just begun.”

“For that matter, we’ve killed quite a few Magi.”

“They’re not even mages, they’re just kunapools.”

“Yes, yes.”

Jegalhee thought back to the past for a moment.

I think there were some bloodthirsty maniacs among them, and even a martial artist who held a fairly important position in the Martial League.

Of course, they were all destroyed by Bi Yan. After realizing what had happened, the Martial Sect sent someone to investigate, but the evidence had already been gathered.

“Honestly, you should also consider my merits.”

“What kind of bullsh*t are you talking about?”

“Who do you think collected all that evidence?”

“…….”

Bi Yan nodded. She had to give him credit for that. She smashed it with her strength from the front, and Jie Galhee assisted her from the side.

But she knew that if she kept pushing, it would eventually backfire. So she did everything in her power to gather evidence. Thanks to

, he was able to convince the Martial King.

“But why did the Sichuan Tang Family suddenly help us?”

“I think I have a pretty good idea.”

“Can’t you tell us?”

“I’ll tell you later.”

Bi Yan refused to explain; she didn’t know exactly either, only vaguely suspecting that Master had helped.

Jia Zhu Dangguo of the Sichuan Dang Family? For a man with such a ridiculous name, he was quite a formidable fighter, and he seemed to have what it took to defeat the Poison King.

In any case, the preparations were complete. The Martial Masters have finally recognized the existence of the Magical Sect, and unlike before, they have managed to preserve some of their power.

“But how do we convince them?”

“What do you mean?”

“We have to tell them that the martial arts are the bad guys.”

“Technically, yes.”

“But do you really think they’ll be so easily swayed?”

Jie Gal Hui’s point was valid. The Federation was originally founded to prosper and protect the Martial Kingdoms, but now they’re just busy looking out for themselves.

But can they really unite against an enemy called the Magical Sect?

That’s exactly what happened to the Martial League before Bi Yan returned. But then and now are different.

“The placenta of the Five Great Families is backing me, and I have evidence.”

“At least I won’t be buried.”

“Yes, that’s why it’s important now.”

At the moment, Bi Yan had been ordered to appear before the Martial League. It was a hearing of sorts, where she would have to testify to many things.

How she knew about the Magical Sect, how she could prove that they were the enemy, and so on. In short, he had to verbally roast his opponent.

“But it’s better than nothing.”

“But it’s better than nothing.”

And most of all, he hated going back to that time. When I was called the Thousand-Slaying Demon and slaughtered everyone in the Martial Realm. I didn’t want to go back to that time.

That’s why, even if you don’t want to, you can’t help but reach out. She rose from her seat.

It was almost time to appear before the Martial League, or so she thought. If it weren’t for the messenger outside. Bi Yan frowned.

“What’s going on?”

“Big, big trouble! The Martial League has been suddenly ambushed……!!!”

“What?!!! The Martial Saint was ambushed?!”

“What were you so surprised about?”

Bi Yan laughed as he calmed down the surprised Qi Gal Hui. She’d already figured out that the Heavenly Horse had returned, carrying the memories of her previous life with her.

How he had returned was not important right now. What mattered now was that his return had changed the game. Now, unlike before, the Sect’s expansion was faster than anyone could have imagined, so the stealth was gone, though there was plenty of evidence left behind. Somehow, seeing that, Bi Yan had predicted the current situation. She was right. The Heavenly Horse would begin its crusade at a much earlier hour than before.

“Master, please give me strength.”

So that when all this is over, I can return to your arms again.
