“Kri-i-i!”

A deafening eagle cry woke up everyone on Mount Hua. People raised their heads in amazement to the sky, dissected by a huge golden bird approaching with amazing speed..

golden bird?..

People looked at each other in shock. One person immediately appeared in everyone's memory.

“Master Lin has returned!” A cry was heard from the bird, Lin Feng looked out from behind the wing. “Meet our Master! He's finally back!”

“Big Brother Lin?” muttered the students.

And then louder, thousands of voices at once screamed the name of the legend Huashan, the man who conquered the entire vicious path, making their sect the greatest and only one in the Golden Gate!

At that moment, a beam of violet light separated from the bird. Lin Yi stopped right in the air above the mountain, his aura seemed to eclipse everything, for many tens of kilometers.

“Quicker! Report to Master Han! Leader Lin is back!”

“Leader Lin! Leader Lin!”

Their joyful cries were heard even outside the mountain. The living myth, which saved the lives of not only students, but also the children of some of them, has returned!

The old students were trembling with excitement.

In an isolated stone room, the young man trained in the art of the sword. The speed with which he moved was amazing. The air inside was spinning with a deafening howl of a whirlwind, gusts of wind left scratches on the stone.

But even as his hands unleashed deadly techniques one after another in a split second, his lips whispered: “Supreme Rank, I must achieve Supreme Rank. Wait for me, brother. I will go to Kyushu and find you. And I will move on with you. I won't leave you alone».

Exhaling in relief, he sheathed his sword, but the wind continued to howl around him, colored by the dust of crushed stones..

The doors suddenly swung open, releasing the pressure with a howl. Barely able to stand on his feet, another young man exclaimed:

“Han! You won't believe it! Brother Lin is back!”

Han Bai really couldn’t believe his ears right away, staring at Jiang Xiaoyu in amazement..

“How did you get back? Are you talking about the Sword God? About our brother Lin?”

“Yes, yes, Lin Yi, Leader Lin! He believes–”

Before Xiaoyu could finish speaking, Han Bai rushed past him, almost knocking him down again.

Similar scenes occurred throughout the mountain. Hua was just holding a meeting, so Yu Hai with nun Yiqian and the others, who were discussing matters over tea, jumped up, overturned their mugs, and ran to the square in the center of Hua Peak, already crowded with people kneeling. ȑἈΝοᛒÈS

Lin Feng and Lin Lei stood on Jin's back, the latter pointed with his hand, which had not yet completely lost the baby fat, and exclaimed:

“Brother Feng, look how he is loved!”

“He's a legend. The Five Mountain Swords survived and defeated the vicious cults only thanks to him.”

Their brother deserved both respect and idolization.

“Brothers and sisters, please rise up...” Lin Yi waved his hand.

He said these words quietly, but everyone rose in unison. People looked at him like an army at its general..

The Five Mountain Swords were no longer the sect he had once left behind. They turned into real warriors. Veterans who have been through a lot and managed to get used to their way of life.

“Brother Lin Yi!” a joyful voice was heard in the distance.

Several people flew towards him like the wind.

Jiang Xiaoyu, Han Bai, nun Yiqian, and all the other acquaintances he made along the way. Lin Yi glanced at them. The children he remembered became adults. The youngest of them, Yiqian, is already over thirty. Only their smiles remained the same.

Even younger brother Xiaoyu has now become an adult and courageous hero with a thick beard.

“You're all here?”

“Yes,” Han Bai nodded. “Most of the elders are now in the branches, but I have already sent letters, they will be here soon.”

Lin Yi nodded and said:

“Take me to the Hall of the Patriarchs.”

Han Bai twitched and lowered his head.

“So you already know, big brother.”

Lin Yi silently pointed to the siblings who had descended from Jin.

“Oh, you came back with them. Understand.”

He turned and led Lin Yi towards the Hall of the Patriarchs.

Memorials of all five mountains were taken to the top of Hua, to the honorary Hall of the Patriarchs. They housed portraits of not only sect masters, but also elders - who, however, were given less space.

Entering the Hall of the Patriarchs, Lin Yi placed three candles in front of the portrait of Ouyang Ming, knelt down, and whispered:

“I returned, Teacher... and... I did not let you down. I managed to fulfill your last wish. Huashan not only survived, we united the entire world and defeated the vicious cults. And also... it’s a pity that you never managed to find out the truth, but our whole world was just a small island. And we ourselves are descendants of the Golden Gate that existed thousands of years ago...”

He shook his head and sighed:

“You were right. A flawless rank is not a legend, or even the end. I am now an impeccable expert myself! I'm sure you would be proud of me. And I... I believe in reincarnation. I swear, as soon as I achieve immortality, even if I have to go across the whole world, I will find your soul and help you remember your past life. Wait a moment... first I will revive the Golden Gate. The lands of Kyushu will remember our greatness just as you will remember your life.!”

He didn’t know whether he was saying this for Ouyang Ming’s sake, or to strengthen his own belief in victory. But one way or another, as the greatest disciple of the Golden Gate, he will definitely return it to its former greatness and make the world remember where it all began.

All for Huashan.

All for the sake of those happy boys and girls who laid down their lives for the sake of their sect.

Getting up, Lin Yi tried to find Elder Qin's portrait, but the elders had no portraits. Just a nameplate and that's it.

His shoulders slumped.

“Brother Lin Yi,” Han Bai called quietly, “Elder Qin convinced Elders Linghu and Yu to stand up for martial arts... they didn’t have time to say a word. One blow killed them all. Poor Elder Qin, he laid down his life to protect Huashan, and did not live to see our glory as the first sect in the world....”

Lin Yi clenched his fists tightly, turning cold and allowing a murderous aura to fill every corner of the mountain..
