Ning Beichen sat in a daze in an empty room, with the Holy Grail and the weird stone mill in front of him, feeling empty in his heart.
The practice has come to an end, which makes Ning Beichen feel a little panicked and even a little overwhelmed.
To be honest, he is now the ceiling of the world's martial arts. As long as he, the great master, does not seek death, there must not be many people in this world who can kill him.
Whether it is the temple or the Shenzong Court, as a grand master, he actually no longer needs to fear them.
Now Ning Beichen is asking questions.
He has no shortage of women and money, and has no interest in power, fame or fortune. Whether he is a rich man or a dashing grand master, Ning Beichen does not feel any pressure.
It's like when you are twenty years old, you have earned enough money for a lifetime. For the rest of your life, you have already entered retirement life early, without goals and motivation.
Then find a woman to marry, have children, and raise the next generation until the end of life.
Is this the life he wants?
After a long time, Ning Beichen shook his head.
These are not the life he wants, otherwise, he would not have disbanded the Lord of Darkness.
Following in the footsteps of the master?
Seeking the path of harmony between man and nature?
Or should we untie the shackles of mankind, follow in the footsteps of our predecessors, and embark on an evolutionary path unknown to mankind?
Gradually, Ning Beichen's heart became calmer, and his eyes began to become firmer.
Because he doesn’t want to be in the same dust as the light!
Ning Beichen stood up, put away the Holy Grail and the stone mill, and walked out of the room. Then he saw his cell phone on the coffee table, and there was a missed call.
It was Chen Mingyue calling. Ning Beichen asked her to help find Jiugong Ce's whereabouts. Is there any news?
Ning Beichen immediately called Chen Mingyue back.
Soon Chen Mingyue's call was answered.
"I'm sorry, Miss Chen. I was practicing just now and didn't pay attention to my phone."
Ning Beichen took the lead in apologizing to Chen Mingyue on the phone. No matter what his current status or cultivation level was, cultivation and courtesy could not be lost.
"It doesn't matter. Mr. Chen, the Jiugong Ce you asked me to investigate has been found."
Chen Mingyue's voice came from the phone.
"Where is Jiugongce?"
Even though he had become a Grand Master, Ning Beichen's heart still beat wildly after hearing the news.
"The Yagyu family in Sakurajima."
Chen Mingyue said.
"Is it the Yagyu family known as the number one swordsman in Sakura Country?"
Ning Beichen asked.
"That's right, to be precise, Jiugong Ce is in the hands of the Sword King of Sakura Kingdom, Yagyu Shengyuanzhong."
"My grandfather said that Yagyu Shengyuanzhong was the sword king more than 20 years ago, and he has never made a move in the past ten years. Now no one knows how strong his cultivation and swordsmanship are. I'm afraid they want to learn from him.
It is not easy to get Jiugong Ce in your hand."
Chen Mingyue said on the phone.
"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Miss Chen."
Ning Beichen had heard of Liu Sheng Yuanzhong for a long time.
It is said that his swordsmanship has reached the point where he can transform into gods and ghosts. However, when Ning Beichen debuted, Yagyu Sheng Yuanzhong had already sealed the sword. In addition, Ning Beichen had never had a good impression of Yingguo, so he never went to see him.
.
If it were before, Ning Beichen would still be a little worried, but now that he has reached the highest level of martial arts in the world, can he still not be able to defeat an old man?
Calculate the time.
Liu Shengyuanzhong should be almost seventy years old now.
At the age of seventy, the blood energy has already weakened. At this age, it has begun to decline. Ning Beichen does not believe that this Yagyu Sheng Yuanzhong can be any more powerful.
Even if he has not declined and is still at his peak, how can he, a great master, still be afraid of him?
"Ning Beichen, I want to go with you this time. The Yagyu family owed my grandfather a favor back then. If I didn't go, he might not see you."
Chen Mingyue said on the phone.
Ning Beichen readily agreed to her request. In any case, it was Chen Mingyue's credit for finding Jiugong Ce's whereabouts this time, although he did not necessarily need Chen Mingyue's help.
A few days later, Ning Beichen and Chen Mingyue appeared in Sakurajima.
"The courtyard in front is the secluded residence of Sakurajima Sword King Yagyu Genchu. However, he has rarely appeared in recent years. It is said that even the descendants of the Yagyu family want to see him. It is not that easy."
"Before I came, my grandfather asked me to warn you to be careful about Yagyu Genchu. As the saying goes, there is no virtuous scholar under the famous name. He can be called the Sakurajima Sword King. He is definitely not an ordinary person. Grandpa even doubted that.
This Yagyu Sheng Genchu is already a master, and he is also a master of swordsmanship."
Chen Mingyue said to Ning Beichen next to her.
"I know, thank your grandpa for me, I will be careful."
Ning Beichen replied.
After all, this was the kind intention of the ancestor of the Chen family, and the ancestor of the Chen family only knew that Ning Beichen was the grand master, but he did not know that Ning Beichen was already the grand master. Otherwise, he would not have made such an explanation.
"Let's go and knock on the door."
Ning Beichen walked towards the yard.
"Stop comers, no one is welcome here, please leave immediately."
Before Ning Beichen knocked on the door, two people came out and stopped them, and drove them away without asking them what their purpose was.
"You guys go and pass the message, I want to see Yagyu Genaka."
Ning Beichen said to them.
"The master of the house doesn't see the guests, please come back."
The two people blocking the road had no intention of reporting.
Over the years, there have been countless people who wanted to meet Yagyu Shengchu, including some big shots from Sakurajima, but only a handful of people were able to meet Yagyu Shengwen.
In addition to those big shots, there were many young people who wanted to become the sword king's disciples, but none of them succeeded.
The visitors in front of me were very young and could not be some big shot. They were probably young people who came to be apprentices, so naturally they would not help Ning Beichen pass the news.
"You haven't gone in to pass the news, how do you know there are no guests in Yagyu Yuanzhong?"
Ning Beichen said with some displeasure.
"There is no need to inform you, young people. I can give you a piece of advice. This is not a place for you to come, let alone if you want to become a disciple."
The people blocking them looked arrogant, giving the impression that they were sword kings.
"We are not here to be apprentices, we are here to meet Yagyu Sheng Genchu."
At this time, Chen Mingyue spoke.
"The master of the house has no guests, please leave."
The person who stopped them didn't give Chen Mingyue any face.
At this time, Chen Mingyue took out something and said to them: "I am a descendant of the Chen family in Suhang. This is a token of the Chen family. As long as you bring the token in and show it to Liu Sheng Yuanzhong, he will naturally agree to see us.
"
"I have already said that the master of the house does not see guests."
The people who blocked them didn't even look at the keepsake in Chen Mingyue's hand. In their eyes, they didn't pay attention to anything belonging to the Chen family in Suhang.
