Chapter 29 Master Qi
"I lost..."
Extinction asked in a trembling voice, "What kind of sword technique is this?"
Qi Ming feigned embarrassment and said to Yin Tianzheng and the others:
"This move is not a sword technique, but rather an attempt to wield a sword remotely using the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth Divine Skill."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhao quickly explained for him:
"Eagle King, you are wise. Brother Ming did not intentionally steal my supreme mental techniques. It was Cheng Kun who tricked us to trap us in the Holy Tomb. Therefore, Brother Ming had no choice but to learn them, otherwise he would not be able to open the stone door."
Then, with a solemn expression, he said, "Moreover, Master Yang left a will that anyone with the right affinity could obtain this cultivation method by kneeling and kowtowing nine times to his remains! Cheng Kun wouldn't worship him, which is why he didn't steal the cultivation method!"
Finally, somewhat unwillingly, he said, "Sect Leader Yang also said that after his death, the Lion King would temporarily assume the position of Sect Leader."
Cheng Kun sighed inwardly, feeling utterly defeated, and became increasingly dejected.
After exchanging a glance, Yin Tianzheng and Wei Yixiao knelt down simultaneously, bowed to Qi Ming, and then said in unison:
"Greetings, Master!"
Qi Ming quickly stepped aside, and said with utter "shock":
"Why do you two seniors do this? I am not the leader! I only wish to join the Ming Cult for now to fight against the Yuan Dynasty. If you are willing, I can go and welcome back the Lion King, who will personally lead us!"
Yin Tianzheng said decisively, "Young hero, since you have mastered the Great Shift of the Universe, you are naturally the leader. Brother Xie is still missing. Where are we going to look for him? A country cannot be without a ruler for a day, and our Ming Cult has been divided for too long. It is time to unify!"
Wei Yixiao also advised, "The leader originally wanted to join the sect, and today's battle has saved our Ming Cult. If you become the leader, the brothers will be completely convinced and will have no objections!"
"No!"
Qi Ming declined, saying, "I'm only in my early twenties, young and inexperienced. How could I possibly shoulder such a heavy responsibility? If it's truly unsuitable, please find someone more capable!"
The two kings bowed again and said, "If the leader does not agree, we will not get up!"
The other followers also knelt down, bowing in unison and saying, "Thank you so much, Master, for protecting our faith and saving our lives!"
Xiao Zhao was one of them.
Of course, she was shocked, thinking it was all too fast!
But soon I felt great.
With Ming-gege's pardon, her mother, the Purple-Robed Dragon King, will surely be able to return to the Ming Cult, and she will not be afraid of being held accountable by the Persian headquarters!
The movie star, Qi, said with feigned difficulty, "How can this be? I haven't even made a move..."
Chongba, who had been observing coldly, shouted loudly:
"Master, please do not refuse any longer! The sect is in turmoil, and foreign enemies are taking the opportunity to attack. You have gone through countless hardships to track down the villain, expose the court's conspiracy, and save our Ming Cult from the brink of death and the destruction of the sacred flame. This is an immense achievement, and you should be the leader! If anyone dares to oppose you, I, Zhu Yuanzhang, and all the brothers of the Haozhou branch will never allow it..."
Brother Chongba, you really are...
Qi Ming was secretly delighted, but his face, like Zhang's, showed great distress. He hurriedly went to help the Second Dharma King.
Yin Tianzheng reiterated, "If young hero does not agree, we will absolutely not get up!"
Qi Ming pleaded for help, "Xiao Zhao, please try to persuade them!"
Xiao Zhao advised, "Brother Ming, you should agree first, and then give it to him when the Lion King returns."
Wei Yixiao chimed in, "Xiao Zhao's suggestion is excellent; we all support it!"
It's just giving them a way out!
If Qi Ming were to give way in the future, no one would agree.
Qi Ming looked at the people from the six major sects.
Kong Wen, however, advised, "Young hero, you are a chivalrous and kind-hearted man. With you leading the Ming Cult, we can all rest assured."
"I……"
Qi Ming hesitated for a moment, then finally said:
"I'll be the acting leader for now, and then I'll abdicate and hand over the throne to the Lion King when he returns!"
The Ming Cult members were overjoyed and cheered in unison, "Our leader is wise!"
It’s so cool to be a master!
However, there were also dissenting voices.
Abbess Miejue said coldly, "The leader of the world's greatest sect shouldn't be keeping my sect's Heaven-Reliant Sword for himself!"
Chongba Ge roared, "The Heaven-Reliant Sword is a pearl covered in dust in your hands. Its true purpose is to be used by our leader for the great cause of resisting the Yuan!"
You seem like a fan but are actually a hater!
Qi Ming said solemnly, "Master, you should know what evil things your disciple Zhou Zhiruo has done with this sword, shouldn't you?"
Abbess Miejue snorted, "Even if someone commits numerous evil deeds, I will punish them; you have no need to do it for them!"
Zhou Zhiruo blushed and felt very uncomfortable under the gaze of the heroes.
Qi Ming's voice turned cold: "Why did Master Zhang seize the sword back then? You haven't changed your minds at all!"
Abbess Miejue sneered, "Then it should remain at Wudang. What right do you have to take it?"
"I have the right to take it!"
"What qualifications?"
"Where did this sword come from?"
"Passed down by my Emei Patriarch Guo!"
"Where did she get it?"
"His mother is the heroine Huang Rong!"
"Where did the title of 'Heroine Huang' come from?"
"The Condor Hero!"
"Behind Zhongnan Mountain lies the Tomb of the Living Dead; the Condor Heroes have vanished from the martial world, hahaha..."
Qi Ming laughed for a while, then revealed his identity:
"I am unworthy, but I am the husband of the descendant of the legendary hero, the Condor Hero, who killed the Yuan chieftain Möngke with a flying stone! Am I qualified to safeguard it for him?"
"What?!"
The crowd stared wide-eyed, their eyes wide with disbelief.
Wei Yixiao laughed loudly, "A hero emerges from among the young! A descendant of the Condor Heroes, you are a perfect match for him. Together, you shall lead our Ming Cult to accomplish the great cause of resisting the Yuan!"
Yin Tianzheng stroked his beard and laughed, "This is the will of Heaven!"
Chongba's ancestors participated in the Battle of Yamen.
Qi Ming's wife's ancestors also participated in the Battle of Xiangyang and even killed the enemy leader. It was indeed the will of Heaven!
Everyone looked at Abbess Miejue.
What else does Extinction want to say...?
Qi Ming went straight for the big reveal: "The secret of the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword lies in the fact that when they clash, they break together, revealing an iron plaque. Engraved on the plaque is a treasure map. There are two treasures: one is Yue Fei's military strategy, and the other is the secret manual of the Nine Yin Manual, the number one martial art in the world back then, isn't that right?"
Extinction's face was ashen.
This is her biggest secret.
The assembled heroes were also in an uproar.
Song Yuanqiao suddenly realized, "No wonder he could command the world with the Dragon-Slaying Saber; no wonder he could rival it with the Heaven-Reliant Sword!"
Qi Ming nodded and said, "That's right. If someone conquers the world using military strategy and then becomes a tyrant, the successor of the Nine Yin Manual can rely on this divine skill to rid the people of that great scourge!"
The two elders of Mount Hua muttered to themselves, "Once you rule the world and become a tyrant, will your wife still be able to kill you?"
Qi Ming, too lazy to respond to that, then said to Miejue:
"You and your disciple have truly acted outrageously. Fifteen years from now, when Emei has a new generation, I will select a disciple with a chivalrous heart and ask my wife to teach her the Nine Yin Manual. What do you say?"
Extinction cupped her hands in thanks: "Thank you for your kindness, Leader Qi!"
Of course, you should thank me.
Otherwise, how could she have obtained the true scriptures on her own?
The Heaven Sword is indeed very powerful.
But what if someone steals it?
The Nine Yin Manual is still the best!
Once you've learned something, it's yours to keep; no one can take it away from you.
Zhou Zhiruo was devastated.
If she had known this would happen, she really shouldn't have associated with Song Qingshu and bullied Zhang Wuji.
If we can keep pretending, won't we be able to learn the true essence of this knowledge? What a miscalculation!
