Chapter 1253: One Man’s Show
Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy
The Fierce Blade was indeed a legend, but he had been known as dead to the entire Qing-Yun Realm. After over three years, he appeared in the world again. He looked strong, just like the story told. However, when he talked, he sounded entirely different from what people said about him!
It seemed he was… a funny guy!
The two different groups of people in black suits were both shocked by Li Wuliang. Yue Shuang and Yue Han were not only surprised but also delighted to see Li Wuliang!
As two of the most dominant figures in Qing-Yun Realm, as elders of Qiong-Hua Palace, even though they seldom paid attention to things in the martial world, they clearly remembered that Fierce Blade Li Wuliang was a good friend to Xiao Monarch.
Xiao Monarch started the war against the three factions for Li Wuliang. In other words, Xiao Monarch died because he wanted to take revenge for Li Wuliang.
After the two ladies reunited with their Brother Ye Xiao, the latter had once told the ladies about Li Wuliang. He told Yue Shuang and Yue Han that Li Wuliang was still alive, and told them to treat Li Wuliang as their elder brother because Li Wuliang was a brother to him!
Now, Li Wuliang was here, and he even solved their problem with one saber attack. He was definitely a savior to the ladies.
“Brother Li! We are sisters of Xiao Monarch Ye Xiao!” Yue Shuang gladly said, “I am Yue Shuang! This is Yue Han! We are Shuang and Han of Qiong-Hua Palace!”
Asking for help was the last thing the two ladies would do in their lives. They would feel better to get their heads chopped off than begging for help.
If somebody told the ladies that they would definitely beg for life when they were dying, they would kill whoever said so to vent the anger in their chests!
However, things changed.
They could be indifferent about their own lives, but they had to save Ye Xiao’s parents. Now, Ye Nantian and Yue Gongxue were trapped in this place, facing death soon.
In consideration for the couple, Yue Shuang and Yue Han had to ask for help since they were unable to protect the couple anymore.
Yue Shuang had an explanation for it. [Brother has told us that Li Wuliang is his best friend, his brother. That means Li Wuliang is our brother too. It is reasonable for sisters to ask their brother for help, isn’t it?]
Thus, both of the ladies felt that it was righteous and appropriate to ask for help right now.
“Ye Xiao’s sisters?” Li Wuliang felt blank. He couldn’t remember Ye Xiao having any sisters in the world!
[It hasn’t been long since I met him last time. He told me everything about his second life. I don’t think he has two sisters even in the second life!]
However, after a while, he remembered that people were talking about something that happened in the Town of Ye. According to what he had heard, the two ladies claimed to be Ye Xiao’s sisters not long earlier.
Li Wuliang knew that the Young Lord of Ye Clan, Ye Xiao in the Town of Ye, was exactly his best friend, Xiao Monarch.
In other words, when the two ladies claimed to be Xiao Monarch’s sisters, Ye Xiao was in the Town of Ye, which meant Ye Xiao didn’t deny them!
That meant Ye Xiao approved the two ladies as his sisters! It was the truth!
Li Wuliang finally made sure the two ladies were telling the truth, and he felt lucky about what had happened.
[It is such great luck that I came in time and stopped that attack with one strike… Otherwise… It might have been a life-long grievance that would keep haunting me.]
[If I chose to watch it happen, I wouldn’t even forgive myself. How do I ask Ye Xiao for forgiveness?]
The man who seemed to be the leader of the other group of black-suit cultivators laughed in a vicious voice. “I didn’t know the well-known Yue Shuang and Yue Han would make jokes like this. Since when does Xiao Monarch have sisters? We all know that Xiao Monarch died a long time ago. You know he is impossible to show up and prove you wrong. That is why you shamelessly claimed to be his sisters, isn’t it? Are you trying to do fraud for help? Are you going to bring the Fierce Blade down with you so that you can survive this? What you are doing makes you both shameless people! The great Fierce Blade has always been a righteous man who will help the weak for justice. However, I don’t think he will be fooled by you two!”
Before Yue Shuang and Yue Han could reply, Li Wuliang had already turned furious first. He raised the saber and pointed at that man who just talked. He walked to the man in big strides and shouted, “Cut all your crap! Who told you Ye Xiao is dead? You are dead! Your entire family is dead! You are going to be dead!”
That man was shocked.
[Wait… What I said are all compliments to him… I have even shown forgiveness to what you have just done with that attack. I was just trying to warn you that you should not be fooled by the women. Didn’t I show you enough respect, Fierce Blade? The entire Qing-Yun Realm know Ye Xiao’s death. Why are you mad about it? At the very least… even though Ye Xiao was our enemy, I didn’t say anything abusive about his death. I just said he died. Wasn’t I respectful to him enough?]
[Why did you rage up like this? Why are you furious like I have said anything offensive? Did you get smacked on your head? Have you lost your mind? Are you insane?]
Li Wuliang was stepping closer to him with the suppression like a hundred thousand mountains falling down. The power was so oppressive that the man couldn’t endure any more, so he stepped back a bit.
However, Li Wuliang suddenly flashed, entered the vicinity of the surrounded sisters, and finally stood in front of Yue Shuang, Yue Han, and the other four people. He lowered the saber and laughed, “Ye Xiao’s sisters are my sisters! Who are you bastards? Why did you bully my sisters? Tell me your names now! I won’t kill unknown people with my saber!”
The people in black suits surrounding the two ladies—including those of Saint Sunlight Sect and Saint Starlight Sect and those who came later—were all shocked.
[Is Li Wuliang a retard now? Otherwise, why is he so easy to fool?]
[Yue Shuang and Yue Han are not Ye Xiao’s sisters. Well, we can’t prove they aren’t anyway, so let’s assume they are. Ye Xiao died several years ago. However, the two women never mentioned anything about avenging their brother if they were his sisters. Isn’t that suspicious?]
[Besides, even if they are Xiao Monarch’s sisters, shouldn’t you ask for more proof? How could you trust them just like that? They just said a few words!]
[Isn’t it… ridiculous? Isn’t this like a kids’ play?]
[You must be out of your mind. That’s the only possible explanation!]
Everybody was confused, except the two ladies.
Yue Shuang and Yue Han only felt warmth in the heart. [Brother has done it right to make friends with this man…]
[Brother has told us about Brother Li. However, I don’t think he has ever told Brother Li about us. Even though brother may have told Brother Li the story of our childhood, he shouldn’t have told Brother Li that we are the sisters. After all, brother didn’t meet Brother Li after meeting us. However, Brother Li chose to trust us immediately! He didn’t even hesitate to accept us!]
The sisters quickly made a decision in their hearts. Afterward, aside from Ye Xiao, they had one more brother who was named Li Wuliang!
What happened between people was always like magic. Some people just couldn’t be close to each other even after staying together for a whole life, while some people could become good friends only by first sight. The two ladies and Li Wuliang must be the latter. They hadn’t seen each other before, yet as they met each other now, they were like sisters and brother!
Maybe Ye Xiao would feel jealous about it when he knew what had just happened. After all, it took them a long time to become sisters and brother!
“Why would you be trapped here, girls?” Li Wuliang rolled his eyes and said, “Couldn’t you just run away… Why do you have to keep guarding here? I don’t believe those bastards can stop you from getting away. It is impossible for them to catch up with you two. Why do you stay here for death? What a couple of silly sisters!”
Yue Shuang didn’t know whether to cry or to laugh. She couldn’t explain now, so she said, “It is a special situation… We can’t just run away… We have to keep fighting…”
Then she gave him a hint through eye contact.
Li Wuliang was surprised and then asked in a low voice, “Who are they?” He glanced at Ye Nantian, the only man among the ladies.
“He is Ye Nantian, Clan Chief of Ye Clan in the Town of Ye. That is our former Saintess, Yue Gongxue of Qiong-Hua Palace. We are here to keep them safe on their way back to Ye Clan.” Yue Shuang smiled and said, “How can we just go away from this?”
“Holy heavens… He is my…” Li Wuliang tapped his forehead and swallowed the words ‘Uncle Ye’ back into his throat.
He was Ye Xiao’s brother, so Ye Xiao’s father was naturally his uncle!
However… he understood that if he called him Uncle Ye, Ye Nantian would be scared to death before the enemies did anything!
To be respectfully called uncle by the Fierce Blade of Qing-Yun Realm, Li Wuliang?
Ye Nantian might be so shocked that his heart would explode.
Li Wuliang rubbed his head and murmured, “That was close. Luckily I cut the latter part quick enough.”
Yue Shuang and Yue Han both rolled their eyes up. [Quick enough? Quick your ass!]
[We made it so clear to you already, yet you actually opened your mouth and leaked out ‘Holy heavens… He is my…’ He is my what? You idiot!]
[You idiot, do you know what we are afraid of the most now? It is definitely not the battle in front of us! We are most afraid that Uncle Ye would get to know something! You need to know how sharp his brain is and how profound his views are. If he is not limited by his cultivation, Wu Fa may stand no chance to rival Uncle Ye. And you… with all your foolish thoughts… You never know until you see what he can do!]
“Anyway, I am here now. Who dares to bully you, I will chop him into pieces with my saber! This is what matters right now!” Li Wuliang made a shout with anger, pointed at those people in black suits with his long saber, and said, “Get the f*ck off from my sight if you are clever! Otherwise, I assure you that you will die in no better way than the four men I chopped just now!”
The leader of the latter group of people in black suits coldly said, “Li Wuliang, are you sure you want to be against us? Do you have to get involved in this battle today?”
Li Wuliang looked at that man from head to toe and said, “Wait a minute… You look pretty familiar… Maybe I know you… Anyway, it doesn’t matter if I know you or not. I can tell from what you just asked that you are a man without a brain. I don’t think it is difficult to put you down in a bit.”
The man slowly nodded but didn’t seem to be mad. He slowly said, “Good. Good. Good! The Fierce Blade has made his point. We don’t want to waste time in chitchat. We never want any more trouble, so we tried not to get you involved. Now that you have pointed at us with your saber, let’s cut the talking and start the fight, shall we? We are capable of putting Yue Shuang and Yue Han down, which meant it won’t be much more difficult to put you down too. It should just take a little more time.”
He paused and then continued, “Things are unpredictable, aren’t they? Life is strange. You are back from death, blessed by heavens. You should have died years ago. Look at you. You even got improved. What a lucky man! However, now you are standing out into the trouble that you shouldn’t have to. I am afraid you have just lost your chance to seek revenge on Saint Sunlight Sect, Saint Starlight Sect, and Cold Moon Palace anymore!”
He stared at Li Wuliang with a pair of hawk eyes. “Li Wuliang, won’t you regret? Don’t you feel it unworthy? Look. In respect to the good luck of yours, I am giving you another chance. If you turn around and leave right now, we won’t blame you for killing four of our people. You can go seek justice and go take your revenge. We assume that we haven’t met each other ever. What do you think?”
“I think not. No.” Li Wuliang shook his head and frowned. “I thought you were just a man without a brain, but it turns out that you are actually much worse than that. Didn’t you just hear what we said? Didn’t you hear my sisters call me brother? Why are you still wasting time sowing discord between us? You are totally insensitive! A bunch of sneaky pricks who don’t want to be exposed… That means you should just do whatever you should and leave without saying a word… Yet you are wasting time to talk and talk… You are definitely a zero-intelligence muddleheaded bastard…”
He looked at the man in black suit and continued talking, “I don’t understand… You are such a big-mouth talky girly fool. Why did they send you here to do this kind of job? Whoever is leading you in whatever organization you work for must be a muddlehead too. He actually let you be the leader of these people? I guess anything is possible as long as you live long enough to see it!”
The man in black clothes seemed to be calm. He gently said, “I see.”
“You see what?” Li Wuliang didn’t stop humiliating him, “Do you finally understand that you can’t talk your great Uncle Li over? What took you so long to come to such an obvious conclusion? You fool!”
That man seemed to be more and more frosty. His eyes were like two unmelting ice mountains, staring at Li Wuliang. Finally, he waved one hand and shouted, “Kill!”
That was the only word he said.
It was just a one-word order.
The men all around this place started to move at the same time.
Li Wuliang laughed loudly and said, “There you go! This is such a good day that I met my sisters here, so let me give you one more lesson. What matters in a fight is only power and weapons, not your disgusting talking mouth. Do you understand, kid? Don’t keep talking and talking like a silly girl all the time. I simply don’t like it when a man does that.”
Then he made a howling strike with his saber and laughed out loud, “Kid, if you truly understand what I just said, you may still have a chance to survive my saber, and maybe you will be a little more like a man someday…”
