"Leaving at 8: 30?
Isn't that a little too hasty? "
A middle-aged Famed Swordsman stood up from his seat. Although his legs were trembling, he still managed to stand up. "I've just returned from outside the city, and I haven't even had the chance to spend some time with my parents and wife. Can I take a day off and set off tomorrow night?
At least let us accompany our loved ones. This might be our last time … "
"No!"
Before the swordsman could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the Sword Spirit of Gui Hall. "Shanhai Pass won't last past noon tomorrow. If I allow you to reunite with your loved ones today, everyone here will die at the hands of the 12 Zu Wu in a few days. I don't need to waste my breath on which is more important."
After hearing the Sword Spirit's words, the swordsman could only helplessly sit back down.
The Sword Spirit was right. If Shanhai Pass couldn't be defended, then Yan Jing City, which was the closest to Shanhai Pass, would definitely be the first to bear the brunt.
The 12 Zu Wu, who had been accumulating anger for hundreds of years, would definitely target Yan Jing City for revenge.
If Yan Jing City fell, then everyone's families and relatives would not be able to survive.
"That's right. Even if it's for your loved ones, you can't back down this time!" A very majestic and heroic voice sounded from the door.
Everyone turned their heads and saw a man wearing a red and yellow robe with a five-clawed golden dragon and a red-browed Baihu embroidered on it walk in.
"Greetings, Your Majesty Long Shi!"
When they saw this person, all the swordsmen present, including the Sword Spirit, Guhan, and the Ten Direction Sword Immortal, knelt on one knee in front of this person.
However, there was one person who didn't kneel, and that was Gu Xuanwu. This child had never seen Long Shi Jiandi's photo before, so he naturally didn't know that this man was one of the two Jiandi's, Long Shi Jiandi.
However, even if Gu Xuanwu knew this, he probably wouldn't kneel. After all, he had grown up with Yuan Kou and didn't have the slightest bit of respect for Jiandi.
Gu Xuanwu didn't kneel, and the three sword ladies behind him, Bai Tie, Xiuli, and Tai 'a naturally didn't kneel as well.
In reality, none of the Sword Ladies present knelt … There was not much of a hierarchy between the Sword Ladies. Even if an Ancient Sword Lady met an Emperor Sword Lady, as long as they did not like her, they would not even bother with her, much less kneel.
"Hahaha!
Rise!
Rise! "
Long Shi Jiandi didn't seem to mind this at all. He hastily beckoned all the sword-bearers present to get up, and then sat down on the seat of the Sword Spirit of the Gui Palace.
"I came all the way here to see the finals of the Eight Academies Tournament and to see what young talents we humans have in the future!"
Long Shi Jiandi had an amiable look on his face as he said, "But I didn't expect to hear such bad news as soon as I arrived in Yan Jing City. It seems that I won't have the opportunity to see the grand occasion of the Elite Eight Academies Tournament!"
"Since I won't be able to see the finals of the Eight Academies Tournament, then let me give all the young talents a grand farewell.
This trip to Shanhai Pass is bound to be full of dangers, and any of you may be left there forever!
I also stayed in Shanhai Pass for three years, and I know better than you what the situation in Shanhai Pass is like.
It is a dangerous place, and even more so a dangerous place. Injuries are commonplace, and death is also rare.
I don't know how many of you will be able to appear in front of me again when you return three years later!
This is really the greatest sorrow of my Human Race. I had no choice but to throw the elite geniuses to that place generation after generation, and then watch them die helplessly.
"If I could, I would like to tear down that Shanhai Pass and break that Zhou Tian Star Great Array, so that my Human Race will never be burdened by Shanhai Pass again and again.
But I am incompetent, I can't do it!
My greatest ability is to offer you a cup of booze! "After saying that, a few drops of tears rolled down from the corner of the Dragon Lion Sword Emperor's eyes.
It could be seen that this was not Long Shi Jiandi's acting, but his true feelings.
Long Shi Jiandi admittedly had his selfish side, but when it came to major issues of right and wrong, Long Shi Jiandi was still deeply righteous.
Long Shi Jiandi clearly knew that, apart from those middle-aged and elderly swordsmen, these children in front of him, who had become famous swordsmen at the age of eighteen, were all among the best geniuses of the Human Race.
This was probably the most powerful wave of geniuses of the Human Race in the last 100 years. Among this wave of geniuses, it was very likely that the future Sword Immortal and Jiandi would appear.
"If I throw a group of geniuses like you into Shanhai Pass, how many of you can come back alive, I really don't know.
If some of you die in Shanhai Pass, whether that person will be able to become Jiandi and Sword Immortal in the future, I also don't know!
"But I do know one thing!
Shanhai Pass can kill geniuses, but it can also temper them.
Among you, one or two geniuses with the talent of Sword Immortal and Jiandi may die.
But there will be three or four Jiandi and Sword Immortals who have been tempered between life and death. If you can survive these three years, then your future will be bright, and human beings will be proud of you! "At this point, Long Shi Jiandi's mood had brewed to the extreme.
With a wave of his hand, dozens of Void Gates unexpectedly appeared at the same time, and then from each Void Gate came out an ordinary blue-rimmed bowl, which was already filled with fragrant wine.
"Come!
Everyone, drink this cup of wine!
I assure you that after three years, I will still be here waiting for you to welcome you!!! "Long Shi Jiandi raised the blue-rimmed bowl in front of him.
Infected by Long Shi Jiandi's imposing manner, even those middle-aged and elderly swordsmen, who were originally somewhat afraid, at this moment, were full of courage and raised their blue-rimmed bowls.
As a result, everyone raised their blue-rimmed bowls high, and the whole scene looked like the scene of 108 generals of Liangshan Pass holding a meeting, shouting to enforce justice on behalf of the heavens.
However, there were still some incongruous things in this scene, such as the Gu Xuanwu.
To be reasonable, even a fool would know that it was necessary to wait for Long Shi Jiandi to finish drinking before the others could drink this bowl of wine.
But our eldest Miss Gu Xuanwu did not understand this … but even if she did, she certainly would not care about it.
To be reasonable, our eldest Miss Gu Xuanwu was still a good child, and had never drunk wine in her life!
Therefore, seeing this bowl of fragrant liquid, eldest Miss Gu Xuanwu could not resist the temptation. When everyone raised their blue-rimmed bowls high, eldest Miss Gu Xuanwu began to gulp the wine down her throat.
However, although this wine smelled very fragrant, it was actually not the same when it was drunk.
After the eldest Miss Gu Xuanwu gulped down the first mouthful, her cheeks swelled up and instantly became red.
"Puchi!"
Eldest Miss Gu Xuanwu unceremoniously sprayed out the white wine in her mouth … fortunately, Guhan, who was standing in front of Gu Xuanwu, had sharp eyes and quick hands. The Sword Qi in his hand curled up and wrapped all the liquid with his Sword Qi, and finally threw the whole Sword Qi out of the window … an unfortunate passer-by outside the window thought that it was raining, and quickly covered himself with his hands.
When he came back to his senses, he found that he was already reeking of wine, and when he returned home, he was severely reprimanded by his wife.
Seeing a lovely girl suddenly making this action, the present swordsmen finally couldn't help but smile, put down the blue-rimmed bowls in their hands, and began to laugh.
It was unknown how Long Shi Jiandi felt when he saw this scene, but Jiandi, after all, was Jiandi, and certainly could not lower himself to the level of a little girl.
Therefore, Long Shi Jiandi could only put down the blue-rimmed bowl in his hands with a gentle smile on his face, looked at Gu Xuanwu with interest, and asked with a smile, "Little girl, which city are you from?
What's your name? "
"My name is …" Before Gu Xuanwu had time to speak, she was interrupted by Guhan, "Your Majesty, she is this junior's cousin. She dropped out of school when she was a child, and has no experience, so she was somewhat impetuous. I hope Your Majesty can forgive her."
"So it turns out to be the cousin of Pavilion Master Guhan!"
Long Shi Jiandi could not recognize other swordsmen, but this Guhan, who had fought against him in the Changyang Mountain, and finally kept the Xuan Yuan Sword, was something that Long Shi Jiandi could not not recognize.
Long Shi Jiandi's gaze swept over Gu Xuanwu, and then he was stunned to see the three Sword Ladies behind Gu Xuanwu.
Except for the White Iron Sword, which was not worth mentioning, whether it was the Beautiful Sword or the Tai 'e Sword, they were all top Sword Ladies ranked in the top ten!
"It seems that this boy's family bloodline is not ordinary!" Long Shi Jiandi, like Wuzhang Shifang, began to praise the bloodline of Patriarch Guhan.
He was well aware of Guhan's strength. He possessed the number one Treasure Sword, the Heavenly Sword, and the Juzi Sword, which appeared for the first time in front of the world … Guhan had already reported the news of the Juzi Sword to the Sword Committee General Headquarters, and the Sword Committee General Headquarters also learned that after the Ancient Sword Lady Qingpin Sword, Guhan actually had another famous sword, the Juzi Sword, which appeared for the first time in the world.
Moreover, looking at the data of the Juzi Sword, it could already suppress the One-meter Sword and the Tai 'e Sword, and become the number one Sword Lady of the famous sword grade.
It was said that the Sword Committee General Headquarters had already sent a note to the Famous Sword Record's compilation committee. When the next edition of the Famous Sword Record was released, the second place would not be the original Tai 'e Sword, but the Juzi Sword.
Everyone might find it strange. Wasn't the data of the Juzi Sword the number one Sword Lady of the famous sword grade?
How could it be tied for second place?
Was it because the Juzi Sword only surpassed the One-meter Sword in terms of attributes? But who made the One-meter Sword be the Sword Lady of the people's path, and it had the power of the entire human race behind it?
As long as the One-meter Sword was willing, it could even suppress the number one Sword Lady of the spirit sword grade. Therefore, the position of the number one Sword Lady of the famous sword grade could only be placed on the head of the One-meter Sword.
"Sword Spirit of the Gui Palace, is Miss Gu Xuanwu's name on the list?" Long Shi Jiandi suddenly asked the Sword Spirit of the Gui Palace beside him.
"Your Majesty, because Miss Gu Xuanwu became a famous sword grade swordsman ten minutes ago, she is not listed on the list," the Sword Spirit of the Gui Palace replied.
"Then add her name!" Long Shi Jiandi nodded. "Such a small number of people is still a bit tight for the Shanhai Pass.
But now, with the appearance of the Tai 'e Sword, the strength of the Shanhai Pass can be greatly strengthened.
For the safety of the human race, the little girl still has to make a sacrifice! "
