C6 Departure of Mount Shu

"First form of the sword, Heaven Defying Stance, Floating Qi, Waving Finger!" Under the teachings of the masked man, Zhang Tianzhi waved the broken sword that her father had left behind. Although it was not every move that was of the utmost standard, every move was still full of strength.

"That's right, there is only so much I can teach you right now. In the future, remember to diligently practice. If you meet any ordinary villains or ferocious beasts, you will have more than enough sword moves to save your life." On the surface, the masked man spoke while watching Zhang Tian Shi practice the sword skills. However, he was still very surprised that not only was he able to quickly recover from his injuries, but he was also able to master all of the sword skills within a single day.

"Not only is this kid strong and nimble, his talent and comprehension is also extremely high. Although he has only started learning martial arts now, if he can find a master teacher to help him, he will definitely become a master swordsman of his generation one day." The masked man returned to the wooden house by himself, reading a book while mumbling to himself.

The next morning — —

Soon after, she discovered that there was a piece of paper pressed down on the table. She then looked at the piece of paper on which it was written: There's something that needs to be done so that you can leave first. The place where you asked about the Dragon Whiskered Grass last time is next to a huge dragon-well located thirty kilometers northwest of the wooden house.

Following the masked man's instructions, Zhang Tian Shi walked northwest for about thirty kilometers before she saw a dragon well with a depth of over a hundred feet. The water in the well rippled so clear that the bottom could be seen, and when one looked from above, they would see dozens of fish swimming around in the water, like a large pot boiling with delicious soup made from many small fish and prawns.

On the west side of the well, there was a surging waterfall that was about twenty meters wide. The rushing waterfall crashed directly onto the surface of the water, causing "Hua hua" sounds. It was an earth-shaking sound. Moreover, countless crystal clear water droplets were splashed into the air. Under the sunlight, the water droplets emitted white smoke.

The eastern slope of the well wasn't that steep. From here, Zhang Tian Shi could see that there were many different kinds of plants and flowers by the water's edge.

Zhang Tian Shi looked at the grass pattern with her left eye and compared it with her right eye. After searching for a while, she finally found the herb that looked most similar to the grass pattern.

"Although it's been almost ten days since I've come up the mountain, I've finally managed to pick up the Dragon's Tooth that almost cost me my life. Since Mount Shu is not going to accept any new disciples, I might as well hurry back to the county doctor's place to exchange for some food."

After that, she returned to the county, changed her clothes, and returned home. Zhang Tianzhi arranged her luggage and calculated that there were still twenty days left before she would go to Mount Shu to recruit new disciples.

"Father!" Mother! "Your son is about to leave for Mount Shu to study under a master. If you have a soul in heaven, you must bless me by successfully entering Mount Shu to learn. In the future, I will definitely become a great hero protecting the common people!" Zhang Tianzhi kowtowed three times in front of the grave before standing up and leaving.

Soon after, after Zhang Tian Shi had walked for the time it took to make a cup of tea, a familiar figure arrived in front of Zhang Tian Shi's parents.

Next, a person wearing a black and mysterious veil said to the grave, "Your son is really not bad. Not only is he smart and brave, he's also a rare talent in sword arts!"

The masked man gazed at the two graves for a while before suddenly taking off his veil to reveal the true face of Lushan. Following which, he saw that the person in front of the grave was actually the doctor who had issued a bounty for 17 years for Zhang Tian Shi to go to Dragon's Brook Mountain to pick the Dragon's Tooth Grass.

After a while, the doctor cupped his fists towards the two tombs and said, "Brother Zhang, Madam Helian, this is all I can help you with. Although it is difficult for Tian Shi to enter Mount Shu like this, but I found out that he has a calm and collected heart that does not fear danger. Furthermore, the spirit in heaven will definitely help him, so I will take my leave! "

Then, after the doctor left Zhang Tian Shi's parents' grave, he thought of something and took out the Dragon Tooth Grass he had picked for himself. He then looked at it carefully before frowning and smiling, "Ten days ago, if I didn't suddenly know that you were going to Mount Shu and wanted to make a bounty for it, I wouldn't have let you pick some Dragon Tooth Grass. Moreover, you almost lost your life from the wolf, but unfortunately, the Dragon Tooth Grass you picked for me isn't real.

Ten days later —

Zhang Tianzhi, who traveled day and night without delay, had covered more than half of the distance. He calculated that he could reach Mount Shu before the new disciples arrived.

"Miss, not only did we sneak out again, we've also come to the vicinity of Mount Shu. If Master finds out about this, he'll definitely scold us again." Two beastmen were conversing not too far away from Zhang Tianyi. One of them was a thin and weak young man with strange yellow hair who looked like a hooligan. Although he didn't look much, his martial skills were not bad.

The other one was a young woman sitting on a rock beside the man. She had a pretty face, slender and pretty, with long reddish-brown hair the color of a lion's hair, and clear eyes that held a sense of majesty. "The three races generally look like normal people.

Regardless of the color of the woman's hair or her strange clothing, she was still the dream of many high officials, nobles, and wealthy merchants. However, her current arrangement gave her a particularly exotic beauty.

"Alright, I've been talking about this since we got some rest. It's so annoying. If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have brought you out with me!" The girl sitting on the stone said to the man with a helpless expression.

At this moment, with a few swishing sounds, a dozen men dressed entirely in black appeared in front of the two beastmen. They were masked and armed with weapons.

The leader of the group stepped forward and said, "Princess Lion of the Beastmen Tribe, please follow us obediently. If not, you will suffer a lot."

"You are also from the demon race? Why are you always staring at me? And this time, there are actually so many people who came to die! " As she spoke, Princess Lion took out her weapon – the crescent twin blades.

"Don't worry Miss, I will definitely protect you well!" The man beside Princess Shi Mu said.

"Yo!" Crescent Dual Blades! I've never heard of you using this before! I wonder if you will really be able to use such a good treasure! Brothers, attack! " With a gesture from the man in black, the others also rushed forward.

Just as the man in black was preparing to fight with the two beasts, a voice suddenly came from not too far away, "Stop! Don't hurt anyone!"

When everyone heard the voice, they subconsciously looked towards the direction the voice came from, only to see Zhang Tian Shi running over to the black-clothed person with the broken sword: "What are you bad guys doing? A group of people wanted to bully two people! And one of them is a woman! "

While Zhang Tianzhi thought back to what his friend Sword Soul had said about him being the reincarnation of the Nangong Sword Saint who had the mission to protect the lives of everyone in the world, he also felt that he could try out the sword moves that he had learned from the masked hero.

"Hehe!" "Where did this little brat come from? How do you know we're bad people?" The leader asked with a smile.

"Nonsense!" For a group of people like you who wear night clothes during the day, each and every one of you must be some kind of bad person or something! " Zhang Tian Shi replied with a strict sense of justice.

"Humph!" Since you, little brat, want to court death so much, I will grant your wish! " The leader of the black-clothed men who was rendered speechless instantly rushed towards Zhang Tianzhi and said.

Following that, with a "pu" sound, Zhang Tian Shi, who was originally well-prepared, was sent flying by the black-clothed man's kick.

Flying in the air, Zhang Tian Shi remembered that the feeling of being knocked away by the wolf at Dragon's Brook Mountain was very similar to what she felt now. Then, when she landed on the ground, she remembered what the masked hero had said about meeting an ordinary villain or ferocious beast who could save his life. Did he not learn a good sword move?

After landing on the ground, Zhang Tian Shi silently looked up at the sky and muttered in her heart: "As expected, just learning for a day won't work, otherwise, these black-clothed people would not be normal people."

"You want to be a hero with a broken sword? I will come deal with you after I take care of these two! "Brothers, attack!" The leader of the black-clothed men said disdainfully to Zhang Tian Shi, who was kicked far away, before continuing his previous gesture.

Zhang Tian Shi, who was lying on the ground in pain and unable to get up, watched the two groups of people fight. She felt that the two people's cultivation techniques were much higher than hers, so she felt that not only were she blindly worrying about it, but she was also blindly trying to be a hero.

Then, after they had fought for less than a quarter of an hour, a powerful and slightly domineering voice came from not too far away, saying, "Stop! You all better not fight here! "

"Which bastard sent it out again …" "Quickly, retreat! It's Mount Shu's Ye Hua Qing!" The leader turned his head towards the source of the sound while cursing, but after realizing something was wrong, he quickly changed his tone and shouted.

"Miss, we should leave as well." When the black-clothed man saw the people from Mount Shu rushing over, the other two Beastmen also quickly left.

"You guys don't need to chase after her. Hey, are you alright?" Seeing that both groups of people had fled, Ye Hua Qing also helped Zhang Tian Shi up when she told the others not to chase after them.

"Cough cough, I'm fine. Thank you, Young Hero." Zhang Tian Shi looked at Ye Hua Qing from Mount Shu who helped him up. He was not as tall and sturdy as her. However, to be able to make such a powerful man in black flee after hearing his voice, he must be an extraordinary person from Mount Shu.

"The two of you, help look after him. The rest of you, follow me." After pointing at the two Mount Shu disciples, Ye Hua Qing left with the remaining disciples.

"Yes, eldest senior brother." The two Mount Shu disciples who were pointed at by Ye Hua Qing responded in agreement. Then, they carried Zhang Tian Shi over to the stone where Princess Shi had been sitting earlier.
