Chapter 784 The Person Coming up the Mountain
Diwu Qian’s father wore a pair of vintage round-framed gla.s.ses with gold rims and a pure black Chinese tunic suit and looked particularly energetic.
He was sitting in front of a stone table several kilometers away from the peak of Luo Yin mountain.
Although the moonlight was bright, this group of people was almost invisible to ordinary people.
The four people sitting at the stone table were obviously not ordinary human beings.
“The scenery is so beautiful in the moonlight. It’s a pity that there are no dishes but only wine!”
At the table, an old man with a long white beard was dressed in a Kung Fu practice suit. He smiled and said, while gazing at the peak of Luo Yin Mountain.
“That’s because the dishes for the wine are not here yet!”
Diwu Qian’s father smiled leisurely and said, “This battle is a great dish.”
The old man looked at the wine jar on the stone table, which was stained with mud and said, “This is good wine. Since the dishes have not been served yet, let’s not drink it for now. Only when the dishes are served can we drink with pleasure!”
“Haha.”
Diwu Qian’s father nodded.
The other two also smiled and nodded in agreement. The four of them once again s.h.i.+fted their gazes to the top of Luo Yin Mountain, waiting for the big dish to be served.
On the peak of Luo Yin Mountain, as it was getting closer to the appointed time, more and more people from Wulin made their way up the mountain to wait.
Since the Luo Yin Sect was destroyed, their base had become an ownerless place. Even if there were people from the Luo Yin Sect guarding it, under such circ.u.mstances, they did not dare to come out and disturb them. They could only hide and watch from the side.
At this moment, the railings of the pavilions surrounding the Luo Yin Sect’s square were already packed with people and there were still numerous people standing there. It was the same on the second floor, as well as the top of the pavilions.
The originally cold and quiet base of Luo Yin Sect suddenly became lively.
Meanwhile, at the foot of Luo Yin Mountain, in those hotels and inns, all the guests who had filled the rooms were out. Each inn was empty. Except for the boss and the employees, there was no one else.
In such a situation, many of the owners could not help but gather in front of a nearby roadside stall and they began to talk about it with much curiosity and confusion.
“Is there really a treasure on this mountain?”
“Who knows? There are so many people coming all of a sudden. Maybe they’re really here to hunt for treasures!”
“I heard from my guests that they are here to watch the fight. They said that some big shots will be fighting here and they are even more powerful than the boxing champion of the world!”
“Humph, do you even believe that?”
“In my opinion, these people are working together to lie to you. Who would be stupid to come to fight in the mountain?”
“It’s really strange. These people did not make any moves a few days ago, but they went up the mountain, one by one, this evening. If they came to hunt for treasures, shouldn’t they have started when they first arrived? Why would they wait until tonight to leave together?”
“Could it be that they’re really here to watch the fight?”
“My guest also reminded me that if there is any movement on the mountain in the evening, we must not enter the mountain or even go up the mountain!”
“It’s so mysterious. What the h.e.l.l is going on?”
“I don’t care what they are doing. We just need to make money. There are not many opportunities to earn money like this.”
It was ten o’clock in the evening.
The bright moon hung in the sky.
The Luo Yin Sect was already bustling with people.
On the edge of the square, there was a circle of chairs outside the pavilion.
The person sitting in front of the main entrance of the Luo Yin Sect’s main hall was none other than Diwu Qian!
Perhaps it was really because she really paid a lot of attention to this battle. Diwu Qian came early, closed her eyes to have a rest and waited quietly.
There were still many empty seats beside her.
Obviously, these empty seats were prepared for the masters in Wulin.
Soon, in the midst of everyone’s discussion, the top ten masters on the Wulin Genius List appeared. From Zhang Jiu in the tenth place to Mu Rufeng in the third place, they arrived one by one. Of course, there were also a few people who came together.
After they arrived, several people ranked on the Wulin Genius List naturally sat on the empty seats next to Diwu Qian. Then, the masters of Wulin came. Only those who were qualified to be called masters dared to sit in the seats placed around the square.
Of course, no one would be so blind to s.n.a.t.c.h it.
Some people who took the seats in advance also hurriedly got up to give up their seats to show their respect when they saw the masters appear.
In the blink of an eye, another hour pa.s.sed. It was already eleven o’clock in the evening.
At this moment, the peak of the Luo Yin Mountain, which was originally against the sun, was surprisingly bright with the moonlight.
As they looked up, the bright moon hung in the middle of the sky, illuminating the whole square.
“It’s already eleven o’clock. Why haven’t they shown up yet?”
“That’s right. They said they would fight tonight, but there is no exact time. Don’t tell me that they want us to wait until 12 o’clock?”
“Even if it starts at 12 o’clock, they should be here by now, right?”
“These two are important figures. Of course, they have to put on airs. Even Diwu Qian did not say a word. Instead, she just sat there quietly, waiting What are you complaining about here?”
“That’s right. Eight of the top ten talents in Wulin are also waiting like us!”
Around the square, the sounds of the discussions gradually became louder.
There were people complaining, chatting, discussing and bragging about the two masters that were about to fight.
At a distant peak of another mountain, “He’s coming.” The white-bearded old man stared into the darkness in the distance, narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile, “The guys coming out of Pear Garden are really imposing!”
“After all, it’s the unique Pear Garden.”
Diwu Qian’s father also nodded.
“Yun Yangzi?”
At the side, a middle-aged man raised his eyebrows and said, “Is he really the young man who plays with guns? It seems that he has his own style.”
On the peak of Luo Yin Mountain, “Whoosh whoosh…” On the top of the mountain, there were gusts of cold wind!
But because there were a large number of people, it did not make people feel gloomy although it was a little cold.
While the crowd was discussing heatedly, the sound of footsteps could be heard!
That kind of footsteps seemed to be that of someone stepping on gla.s.s, giving off slight echoes.
Once it sounded, it immediately attracted everyone’s attention.
Hearing the sound, people turned around to take a look.
In the dark night sky, a figure appeared out of nowhere.
He was about 100 meters away from the square at the top of Luo Yin Mountain.
What was shocking was that the man did not land on the ground, but flew high in the sky. He was stepping on the air and flying!
“It’s Yun Yangzi!”
“The Cloud-walking Step of Pear Garden?”
“Amazing. He is able to walk in the air. Isn’t it only possible for a super expert who has reached the guru realm?”
“So handsome!”
“I’ll be satisfied when I can do this.”
“Fortunately, he is on the top of the mountain. If he were seen at the foot of the mountain, wouldn’t he be regarded as superman?”
Everyone was talking about it.
While they were discussing, almost everyone gazed at Yun Yangzi with reverent looks.
At the edge of the field, Diwu Qian, who had been resting with her eyes closed, quietly opened her beautiful eyes. As she looked at Yun Yangzi, a faint smile appeared on her face.
Mu Rufeng’s voice sounded in her ear. “This boy is so good at showing off!”
“No matter how I look at it, you’re younger than him, right?”
Chen Yunzhu said with a smile.
“If you have that kind of strength, you can also show off.”
Feng Yiming said with disdain.
“Humph.”
With a slight blush on his face, Mu Rufeng stole a glance at Diwu Qian and said, “If I had his strength, I would not have acted like this. Besides, I will definitely reach his level in terms of strength. If you don’t believe me, let’s wait and see. I will definitely catch up with him in a few years.”
High in the sky, “As expected, he hasn’t arrived yet.” Yun Yangzi strode over in the air. He was dressed in a long white robe. With the bright moon as his backdrop, he looked like an immortal who had descended to the mortal world, which really gave people an ethereal feeling.
Although he had made a breakthrough in seclusion, Yun Yangzi’s real strength had only reached the peak of the ninth cla.s.s with one opened meridian. There was still a long way to go before he reached the Guru Realm.
The reason why he was able to walk in the air before he reached the level of a guru was very simple. With his strength at the peak of the ninth cla.s.s with one opened meridian, he could easily float in the air. In addition, with the unique Cloud-walking Steps of the Pear Garden, he was able to make it. Even so, he could only hold on for 100 meters. If the distance was too long, no matter how much internal Qi he had, he would not be able to withstand it!
The distance of 100 meters was neither long nor short.
In order to preserve his energy, Yun Yangzi quickly crossed the distance of a hundred meters and slowly descended from the sky. His footsteps were extremely light and he did not even make a sound.
As soon as he landed, Yun Yangzi turned toward the east. Facing a mountaintop 1,000 meters away, he cupped his hands and made a courteous fist salute.
The onlookers were baffled.
What was Yun Yangzi doing?
Diwu Qian and the others also turned their heads to look toward the east.
On the top of the mountain in the east, “This kid is not bad. He’s much better than those arrogant folks in the Pear Garden.” The white-bearded old man nodded with satisfaction.
“Yeah, not bad.”
Diwu Qian’s father also nodded in agreement.
“Yun Yangzi is indeed not bad.”
Around the stone table, the middle-aged man said with a smile, “However, I think the person who is coming up the mountain now seems to be better.”
The other three nodded with a smile.
“Pitter-patter… ”
When everyone’s attention was attracted by Yun Yangzi, there was another sound of footsteps.
The footsteps were neither fast nor slow.
It sounded like an ordinary person taking a walk.
Everyone turned to look in the direction of the sound.
The footsteps came from outside the mountain gate of the Luo Yin Sect. Even though the sound of the footsteps could be heard clearly, it seemed as if it was coming from a distance.
For a moment, many people standing at the top of the pavilion stood up to check.
As expected, they saw a figure halfway up the mountain.
The man was illuminated by the moonlight, as he strolled over leisurely. He looked like a tourist who was enjoying the scenery.
But unlike the tourists, this person was emitting a unique aura as if he was surrounded by a layer of mist.
“It’s John Doe!”
“John Doe is here.”
“It’s so mysterious. I can’t seem to see clearly at all. It seems that I can only see a cloud of fog.”
“Not just mysterious. He is only halfway up the mountain, but his footsteps are so light. How can we possibly hear such loud footsteps here?”
“What a strong internal Qi!”
