Lord Shadow

Azief body right now is surrounded by sword intent as the wind could not even come near and touched him as that sword intent cut them even before they could even touch the sleeve of his robe.

Xi Feng stopped his movement as he looked at his teacher back figure. He smiles a bit as he looks at that lonely back.

It was like his teacher is a sword. A sword that is sheathed. Xi Feng guess that when that sword is unsheathed, it would shock the world.

A bird flew near Azief. He saw the birds flapping its wing merrily welcoming the warmth of spring and Azief smiles.

Azief could guess, that spring this year would come in another week.

‘Another week then’ he said as he sits there looking at the mundane world with some kind of longing.

Behind him, Xi Feng continues his training. All the while, the schemes of the people in the background is slowly inching closer to affect the entire martial art world.

A snow vulture was feasting on a large bear.

The large bear seems to be sliced with sharp weapons with its entrails all exposed to the cold. The Snow Vulture is a native creature of this world.

It stays in cold mountainous regions and they are active on winter. When summer came, they would hibernate in their nest.

One of the vulture was so engrossed in feasting on the rotten carcass of the bear that it did not realizes that someone is looking at it. One nock of an arrow and the Snow vulture lay dead on the ground.

The people capturing it was martial artist from Beiyuan.

They took the snow eagle and laughed as they boast about bringing it to the Plains to show to his tribe how a Snow vulture looks like.

On the mountain top, Azief is training his disciple but Xi Feng is not the only practicing and he is not the only one that is waiting for the coming of spring.

Below the mountain, winter has already almost left the lands and there is only a slight trace of winter.

And there is a large group of people around the foot of the mountains.

Below the mountain, there is a large camp of people and it is divided into two.

The heterodox sect camp on the north part of the mountain and the orthodox sect camp on the south part of the mountain.

For those that is only coming here to watch a good fight, most of them rented a few room in large Inn in the villages around the Five Element Mountain

But for the martial artist they both camped below the foot of the mountain.

They did not rush upward because they know that the Three Devils of Han is guarding the entrance.

At first, there are some unruly people from the heterodox sect that tries to break through.

The Crippled Devil broke all of the bones in their legs and hand and left them under the winter cold.

If not for the member of their same set come to save them, those people would become an ice corpse.

Since then, people decided there is no need to offend the Three Devils for such a minor wait.

They decided to wait for spring to come and then climb the mountain. So, he heterodox sect erect their tent and make their camp on the foot of the mountain.

They wanted to be the first to climb up the mountain and challenge Xi Feng to a death and life battle.

When the orthodox sect who was sleeping in the inn and lounging around the restaurant around the villages heard what the heterodox sect is planning, they could not stand still anymore

They decided that they could not be like this.

They too went out and erected their tent on the foot of the mountain. They fear that the heterodox sect would beat them to the chase and reach the mountain top before they do.

Most of the orthodox sect wanted to trade pointers with Xi Feng and gain some understanding about their own sword arts and congratulated him in mastering the ten moves of the Flowing Sword Arts

And some of them even have righteous attitude to want to protect Xi Feng when they heard that the heterodox sect is targeting him because he killed their Elders.

To them, what Xi Feng had done was a good thing for the orthodox sect. How could they let the heterodox sect kill their members of the same ideology?

And it was not like the Sun Devouring Sect and Vulture Peak hide their intention to kill Xi Feng which made some of the orthodox sect member felt even more determined to protect the Sword Gentleman

In the beginning as they set up the tent there is many conflict, almost making the foot of the mountain area like a war zone

Because of these two camps, every few days, the heterodox sect and the orthodox sect had a fight every few times in a day.

And as time passes it become even worse with old feuds and old grudges being drugged up which increases the tensions on both side

This kind of atmosphere could easily devolve into a war which is why both of the camp designated a leader to make sure such thing did not happen.

They might hate each other guts but they still did not want to start a war between the heterodox sect and the orthodox sect.

War is always a terrible thing.

It is one thing fighting each other for their honor and pride. It is a different thing to fight a war of the martial arts world between the heterodox and orthodox sect.

The last time such a war happened many schools of martial arts vanished and many people had died. It even affects the Imperial family and causes many change in the landscape of the world

Some even said that the last war of the martial arts world implicated Li Xian which is why he was exiled from Yong and had to fled to Eastern Yuan

Their solution to not devolve into such scenario is electing a temporary leader.

Taking the leadership role of the orthodox sect is none other than the new arrival but also the most famous martial artist of the young generation Zhu Yao of Sword Residence.

Elegant Scholar Sun Wu from Wu Pavilion act as his Vice Leader while One with Sword Su Meng agree with the nomination.

Only the Young Master of Saber Manor Jian Que who did not like the arrangement but everyone could understand why.

Everyone knows that the relationship between the Saber Manor and the Sword Residence is like that of a dog and a cat.

Zhu Yao is called the Sword Monarch and his skill is acknowledged by many sword practitioners so everyone did not mind listening to his orders.

On the heterodox side, they choose the Elders of the Vulture Peak and the Sun Devouring Sect as their leader.

With the leader containing the battle between two camp, there is this kind of strange peace on the foot of the mountain.

But for both camps, they both know that when they reached the top of the mountain top, when the battle begins, at that time, their resentment and their dissatisfaction would erupt.

After all, for a long time there is no Leader of Wulin.

This matter on the top of the mountain of the Five Element Mountains is actually a matter of a mixed bag of interest, vengeance and many other things.

It could not be helped.

And like Xi Feng on the mountaintop training his sword arts every day, people on the bottom is also honing their strength and trading pointer with each other.

And while everyone easily asks any one to spar there are some people in the orthodox camps, that not many people would dare to ask to spar with them

They are the Elegant Scholar Sun Wu from Wu Pavilion, One with Sword Su Meng from Sword Washing Sect, Saber Manor Young Master Jian Que and Sword Monarch Zhu Yao

Unless they did not want to humiliate themselves, they would not deliberately seek them to spar with them

Some people speculated that the Sword Monarch did not come to trade pointers but to defend his title as the strongest sword practitioner of the young generation by defeating Xi Feng.

Whatever the case is, many people have been anticipating the clash between Sword Gentleman and Sword Monarch in the Five Element Mountaintop.
