Chapter 596 A Marriage Arranged Thousands of Years Ago

Qin Haodong said, “So the Cihang Sword House was created by Leimu’s disciple Dini? With her identity and status at that time, there was no need for her to do that. What was her real purpose?”

Feng Wu said, “It’s a long story, and the cause is very complicated.

“In the battle of Zhulu, the Yellow Emperor killed Chi You with the Xuan Yuan Sword and cut off his head. This was a historic fact known to all.

“However, what people don’t know is that the Yellow Emperor also disappeared after the battle, including the Xuan Yuan Sword. No trace of him or his sword was found.”

Qin Haodong said, “According to folk legends, the Yellow Emperor gathered 3,000 companions and then ascended, didn’t he?”

“That’s just folklore. In fact, it’s not true at all. Although monogamy wasn’t in trend at that time, the Yellow Emperor only had four wives. He didn’t have 3000 companions.”

Feng Wu said, “According to the records of our Cihang Sword House, the Yellow Emperor suddenly disappeared after Zhulu’s battle, and there was no news of him from then on. Being the legal wife of the Yellow Emperor, Leimu sent many people to search for him, but none succeeded.

However, Leimu was quite single minded; she did not give up. There were two reasons for Dini to establish the Cihang Sword House. One was to find the whereabouts of the Yellow Emperor, and the other was to fight against the Devil Gate and protect the people of Huaxia.”

Qin Haodong asked, “Fighting against the Devil Gate? What kind of organization was it?”

Feng Wu said, “Chi You was killed by the Yellow Emperor, but his wife and subordinates remained alive. They wanted to exact revenge, but they could never find the Yellow Emperor. In the end, they killed all his clansmen.”

Qin Haodong said in surprise, “Chi You had a wife? There’s no such record in history books.”

“It’s recorded in the history books, but there’s very little information, so not many pay attention to this.

“I once read such a record in a book. Chi You once said he would take over the throne and fight for Shen Nong’s territory. So Shen Nong said that to the Yellow Emperor. Then the Yellow Emperor killed Chi You. After that, nobody knew where Yao Li—Chi You’s wife—was. She might have escaped to the North Mountain.”

“Yao Li was Chi You’s wife. According to the historical records of our Cihang Sword House, she was a very powerful woman whose cultivation was not inferior to Leimu’s. Moreover, she didn’t disappear after Chi You’s death. Instead, she led the Jiuli Tribe to launch a crazy revenge against the Xuanyuan Clan of the Yellow Emperor.

“However, the Xuanyuan Clan launched a counterattack under the leadership of Leimu. Both sides were injured. So Yao Li didn’t gain any advantage.

“Yao Li was a woman with an extremely vengeful heart. She was unwilling to give up just like that. Thus, she summoned the Devil Gate and made every generation of her descendants seek revenge against the Xuanyuan Clan’s descendants.

“Leimu opened the Cihang Sword House in order to deal with the revenge of the Devil Gate. Both sides have been fighting with each other for thousands of years.”

Qin Haodong was shocked to hear that. He didn’t expect there was such a fight behind the current civilized society.

He asked, “Is the Hehuan Sect we met today the Devil Gate?”

Feng Wu shook her head and said, “The Hehuan Sect is not the Devil Gate. It’s just a subordinate sect of the Devil Gate. After thousands of years of development, the Devil Gate has become extremely powerful.

“Although they had replaced the Sect Masters for countless generations, each Sect Master is called Yao Li. Under the Sect Master, there are eight Sect-Protecting Elders, four Great Kings and the Left and Right Inspectors.

“These people are all high-level members of the Devil Gate. They are also reinforced by seven sects of the Devil Gate, namely the Five Poisons Sect, the Hehuan Sect, the Skull Sect, the Yinfu Sect, the Mihun Sect, the Black Demon Sect, and the Beast-controlling Sect. Bai Ruyi and Zou Changkong are only two guardians of the Hehuan Sect.”

Qin Haodong took a deep breath and said, “It’s so powerful. The two guardians of the Hehuan Sect are already at the eighth level of the supreme power realm. How powerful could the Sect Master of the Devil Gate and those Sect-protecting elders and Kings’ cultivation be?”

Feng Wu said, “Master Yao Li’s cultivation is unfathomable. She or he is at least at the Saint Realm level. However, the Devil Gate and the Cihang Sword House have not fought face to face for many years, so their specific cultivation is unknown. According to previous experience, Yao Li’s cultivation should be equal to that of the Cihang Sword House’s Master.

“As for the eight sect protecting elders, the Left and Right Inspectors and the four Great kings are slightly weaker. Most of them are ninth level supreme power masters, and the sect heads of our subordinate seven sects are basically at this level.”

“My God, are they so powerful?”

Qin Haodong was still shocked by the Devil Gate’s strength. Apart from their Sect Master, the ninth-level supreme power masters were enough to compete with those aristocratic families in the capital.

He had thought that the martial arts on Earth had declined; he didn’t expect for them to be so powerful. It seemed that he didn’t feel this before because he was just an ordinary person at that time, unable to get in touch with this circle at all.

Feng Wu said, “The Devil Gate is indeed very powerful; they have been hiding in the dark. This time, they found traces of the Dark Sect, so the Xuanyuan Pavilion sent me to investigate.

“I have been hiding in Shanghai for a long time and have also slowly found some clues about the Devil Gate’s activities. I just didn’t expect the Hehuan Sect would set up such a trap. Fortunately, the Sacred Lord arrived today. Otherwise, I would have been in danger.”

Qin Haodong said, “Since the Devil Gate is so powerful, could it be said that the Cihang Sword House is not bad?”

Feng Wu said proudly, “Of course. In addition to the unfathomable cultivation of the Sword Lord from the Cihang Sword House, there are the eight Elders, the Twelve Holy Swords Emissary, and the five Masters of the Hidden Sect.

“Each of them is at the ninth level of the supreme power realm. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to compete with the Devil Gate. They didn’t come out because the Devil Gate hasn’t acted openly, so not many people know about them.”

Qin Haodong nodded and said, “By the way, you haven’t told me how I can become the Sacred Lord of the Cihang Sword House.”

Feng Wu said, “This is the first sect rule set up at the establishment of the Cihang Sword House. The person holding the Xuan Yuan Sword is the Sacred Lord of the Cihang Sword House. All disciples of the Sword House must obey the Sacred Lord’s orders.”

Qin Haodong said, “Isn’t this sect’s rule a little inappropriate? What if the Xuan Yuan Sword is snatched by evil people? For example, if it fell in the hands of someone from Devil Gate, would you also want to take this person as your master?”

Feng Wu shook her head and said, “That’s impossible! Leimu and the Yellow Emperor Xuan Yuan were a pair of Dual Cultivation partners. Both of them know each other’s cultivation methods very well, and they also knew that the Xuan Yuan Divine Sword has spirit inside it. Even if it were grabbed by evil people, it would be useless.”

Qin Haodong thought for a moment and said, “What if someone tried to control the Cihang Sword with a fake sword?”

Feng Wu said, “That’s impossible. Only the core disciples of the sect know about the Xuan Yuan Divine Sword. Others don’t know about this rule of the Cihang Sword House.

“In addition, even if some people knew about it, it would be useless. The Xuan Yuan Sword can’t be forged. Even if we couldn’t recognize it with our own eyes, the Leimu Sword in my hand can also recognize it. They were originally a pair of swords. It’s impossible for a fake sword to complete the combination.”

“Oh!” Qin Haodong nodded. At the same time, he was also secretly happy that he had become the Sacred Lord of the Cihang Sword House by accident, which meant that he had an extremely powerful force at his command.

He asked, “Bai Ruyi told me that there were no male disciples in the Cihang Sword House. Is that true?”

Feng Wu said, “That’s correct. The cultivation method Leimu used in those days was the Dual Cultivation Method with the Yellow Emperor, so the cultivation method she passed down is only suitable for women to cultivate. Therefore, there are no male disciples in the Cihang Sword House.

“Because of this, the disciples of the Cihang Sword House could only marry a descendant of the Yellow Emperor.”

Qin Haodong asked in surprise, “Isn’t this rule unreasonable? If you can’t find someone who practices the Yellow Emperor’s martial arts, you won’t be able to get married for the rest of your life?”

“This is not a simple problem,” Feng Wu’s cheeks reddened as she replied, “Due to the problem related to the cultivation method, if the female disciples of the Cihang Sword House sleep with a man who doesn’t practice the Yellow Emperor’s cultivation method, both of them would die. There is no other way.”

“This… This is too tragic!” Qin Haodong said, “Have the female disciples of the Cihang Sword House ever found a man after so many years?”

Feng Wu shook her head and said, “No.”

Qin Haodong covered his forehead and added, “This is a truly ridiculous cultivation method.”

No wonder Feng Wu didn’t accept any man’s advances, even though she was known as the number one campus belle in school. It turned out that she was not only cold, she was also practicing such a cultivation method.

Feng Wu hesitated for a moment before saying with a red face, “Also, there is a rule in the sect that every generation’s Sacred Lady would be engaged with the Sacred Lord. Once a woman became the Sacred Lady, she would marry no one but the Sacred Lord.”

“Uh? Is there such a rule?”

Qin Haodong was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that he had indeed become the Sacred Lord of the Cihang Sword House. Didn’t it mean that he already had a pre-arranged marriage? And it had been settled five thousand years ago. This deserved to be considered as a great record.

Feng Wu lowered her head and said softly, “Yes.”

Qin Haodong asked, “Is there a Sacred Lady in the Cihang Sword House now?”

Feng Wu’s face was getting redder. “Of course, because the she is the Sword Master’s heir.”

Qin Haodong asked, “Who is she? How old is she? Is she beautiful? Is her figure good?”

It was related to him, so Qin Haodong asked a series of questions.

Feng Wu’s head hung lower, and her delicate skin seemed to be dripping with blood. She said in an inaudible voice, “It’s me.”

“Uh…”

Qin Haodong was speechless for a while. He didn’t expect they would meet so soon.

Suddenly he realized a problem and said, “I don’t think so. Although I got the recognition of the Xuan Yuan Sword, I don’t know the cultivation method of the Yellow Emperor. Does this mean that our marriage is ineffective?”

Feng Wu said, “Leimu and the Yellow Emperor were both wise people. Of course, they wouldn’t let this happen. The cultivation methods of our Cihang Sword House are hidden in the sword, and Yellow Emperor’s Xuan Yuan Divine Skill is hidden in the Xuan Yuan Sword.”

“Really? Why didn’t I notice that?” Qin Haodong said as he stretched out his hand, and the Xuan Yuan Sword appeared in his palm.
