"Stand still, don’t move."
A cold voice echoed in the courtyard.
The movements of this supreme Great Grandmaster also came to an abrupt halt.
At this moment, within his perception, a majestic force was emanating from the big hand on his shoulder.
It seemed that if he took even one more step forward, or made any attempt to resist, this power would surge down and tear him to pieces on the spot!
Shocked in his heart, he dared not move the slightest bit any longer.
This sudden change instantly drew the attention of everyone present.
"Junior Brother Qin!"
The eyes of Su Zimo and others lit up.
And Wei Wuji also turned his head, looking towards Qin Zheng who arrived just in time.
"To think that a True Dragon would emerge from shallow waters, what wishful thinking!"
He snorted coldly and then took a step forward, his hand reaching out fiercely.
The immense power seemed as if it was about to tear apart the void, and though it was just a simple gesture, it gave off an unbearable sense of oppression!
"Second brother!!"
Wei Wuji shouted loudly, trying to stop his second brother from taking action.
But Wei Wushuang seemed to ignore him as his large hand continued to descend towards Qin Zheng.
Thump!
Just when everyone thought that Qin Zheng was about to be struck by that palm and severely injured,
A deep and muffled sound suddenly burst forth.
The ground beneath everyone’s feet felt as if struck by a heavy object, and it shook violently.
Qin Zheng also extended his hand, his grip strong like a vice, capturing Wei Wushuang’s wrist and preventing him from further descending his hand.
"You?!"
Sensing the strength from his wrist, Wei Wushuang’s face changed as he looked at Qin Zheng with a mix of astonishment and suspicion.
At this moment, Qin Zheng’s hand was resting on the shoulder of the supreme Great Grandmaster while holding onto Wei Qingshuang’s wrist, yet he didn’t appear flustered, handling the situation with ease.
"Regardless of your status, this isn’t a place for you to behave recklessly," said Qin Zheng, gazing at the other party with a slightly cold look, speaking calmly.
Wei Wushuang’s brow furrowed, about to say something more.
Crack~
Just then, the force on his wrist intensified, followed by a faint sound of bone cracking.
A trace of pain flashed across Wei Qingshuang’s features, and when he looked up at the young man before him once again, he immediately noticed the undisguised coldness in his eyes.
He eventually did not speak his piece, instead, he scoffed lightly and fell silent.
Seeing the other party lower his head, Qin Zheng then loosened his grip and moved past the two men, advancing towards Wei Wuji.
"Master, are you alright?"
Wei Wuji shook his head, indicating he was fine, and then looked towards the other side to speak, "Second brother, if you came just to gloat, then please leave."
"As you can see, I am doing well here, and so are my disciples."
With his hands hanging by his side, Wei Wushuang looked at Wei Wuji. After a few breaths, he snorted coldly, turned, and stepped away.
"Eldest brother asked me to come fetch you. We set out tomorrow morning. Whether to go or not, that’s for you to decide."
Before leaving completely, his figure paused, he turned his head to look at Wei Wuji and said.
After speaking, he employed his Qinggong and instantly disappeared from everyone’s sight.
The supreme Great Grandmaster also quickly followed Wei Wushuang’s figure and left.
Only before departing, he cast a somewhat fearful glance at Qin Zheng.
To crush Second Master Wei’s wrist bones with bare hands—what immense strength that must take!
It wasn’t until after the two had left that Fuyu arrived tardily, having been the one assigned to fetch Qin Zheng, but he was a bit slow to come.
Noticing the somewhat heavy atmosphere in the courtyard, he too fell silent.
"Big brother..."
Wei Wuji muttered absentmindedly.
Qin Zheng and the others exchanged glances, not sure what to say, so they simply stayed by his side for the time being.
"I’ve made you all witness a farce," Wei Wuji’s voice suddenly spoke up after a moment.
Then, without waiting for others to respond, he continued, "I was born into the Wei Family of the Capital City, and the man just now was my second brother."
Qin Zheng and the others were actually aware of this; Wei Wuji had called him ’second brother’ several times already.
It’s just that his second brother seemed quite unyielding.
Wei Wuji paused for a moment, as if pondering where to start his story.
After some breaths, he continued, "In my youth, I was quite talented, and with sufficient resources, I soon cultivated to the level of supreme Great Grandmaster."
"I became conceited, believing myself to be the next National Martial Saint of Great Jin, with boundless prospects ahead."
"Around that time, our family’s elder had just killed a Great Saint of the Demon race, and the Wei Family thus obtained a chance to observe the Enlightenment Divine Stele."
"The elder had no further need for advancement, so he passed this opportunity down to the disciples of the family."
"And at the time, the only family members who had reached the level of supreme Great Grandmaster were the three of us brothers."
"Eldest brother had been a Great Grandmaster for many years, on the brink of breaking through the limits to become a Half-Step Martial Saint, just a step away."
"Second Brother’s realm is similar to mine; we both just made a breakthrough not long ago."
"But back then, I was young and arrogant, convinced that by seizing this opportunity, I could break through my limits and become Great Jin’s nineteenth National Martial Saint."
"Thus, disregarding relationships, I insisted on competing for this chance, never considering that with it, Big Brother might likely have broken through his limits and been promoted to a Half-Step Martial Saint!"
"Big Brother has always doted on me. He voluntarily gave up this chance. Second Brother, not competitive or grabby, allowed me to take it, and seeing my rapid cultivation progress, the rest of the family agreed."
"After all, for the Wei Family, having another Semi-Saint meant little, but having one more National Martial Saint would signify something entirely different."
At this point, he paused, then finally sighed, "I wasted that opportunity and didn’t even come close to reaching the threshold of Half-Step Martial Saint."
"Disheartened, I saw all my wild ambitions as a joke and locked myself in the courtyard, sitting there for ten years!"
"Big Brother, caring for me, saw me in such a state and silently left Capital City to slay demons and eradicate evil along Great Jin’s borders, amassing merits to exchange for another chance for me to witness the Enlightenment Divine Stele."
"During one demon-slaying mission, he was ambushed by several Saint Envoys, suffered severe injuries, and damaged his foundation, rendering him unable to break through limits and be promoted to Half-Step Martial Saint."
"I felt guilty, so I left Capital City and came to Qingzhou, also wanting to slay demons and eradicate evil, to accumulate merits in exchange for a chance for Big Brother to witness the Enlightenment Divine Stele."
"That Divine Stele is truly miraculous; just by observing it, there’s a great chance that Big Brother’s damaged foundation could be healed."
"..."
Wei Wuji spoke at length, sharing things he’d never spoken of publicly.
After hearing all this, the others also understood why his Second Brother behaved the way he did toward him.
It turned out that the Commander-in-chief, who seemed calm and collected to everyone else, had once been a spoiled child of the family; quite the contrast.
Qin Zheng also keenly discerned more from Wei Wuji’s words.
The Wei Family of Capital City was also a powerful clan with a Martial Saint at its helm!
Because only Martial Saints can slay Great Saints of the Demon race, only Martial Saints!
One just wonders how many National Martial Saints the Wei Family has.
And... the Wei Family obtained a chance to observe the Enlightenment Divine Stele only after slaying a Great Saint.
I only slew a few dozen of the Demon Saint Realm; could I really obtain the opportunity to observe the Enlightenment Divine Stele?
Recalling Wei Wuji’s recent statement that he came to Qingzhou to slay demons and eradicate evil to earn a chance to observe the Enlightenment Divine Stele,
Qin Zheng instantly realized that this opportunity wasn’t earned by his own merits, but was given to him by Wei Wuji!
He looked at Wei Wuji, about to speak.
At that moment, Wei Wuji also turned his gaze to Qin Zheng.
Seeing that Qin Zheng had understood the reason, he gently shook his head and said, "The court gave our ancestor another chance to observe the Divine Stele a few years ago. Big Brother has already been re-established and promoted to Half-Step Martial Saint, so he no longer needs it."
"As for me, with my limited talent, such an opportunity would be wasted on me. It’s best given to you."
Having said that, he pondered for a moment, then continued, "Tomorrow, you will set off with my Second Brother to Capital City. With him by your side, there should be no trouble."
"Master, what about you?" Sun Zhilan quickly asked.
At that moment, Wei Wuji was a man whose Essence Qi Spirit had been scattered, and staying here was just waiting for death.
But if he returned to Capital City, it was possible that his scattered Essence Qi Spirit could be restored!
After all, Capital City of Great Jin was home to many strong individuals, and nothing was impossible there!
Yet Wei Wuji shook his head, and with a calm smile, he said, "I’ve spent most of my life in Qingzhou, and Lin Yuan City is indeed a decent place to rest my bones."
His words implied he would not return to Capital City.
Hearing him say this, everyone fell silent and said no more.
They weren’t Wei Wuji and could not empathize with his feelings, so they couldn’t say much.
Qin Zheng remained silent for several breaths, then finally responded with a ’yes’.
Witnessing the Enlightenment Divine Stele was indeed a rare opportunity that could potentially cause his strength to undergo a drastic transformation!
So, he didn’t want to give up just like that.
If necessary, in the future, he’d slay a few Great Saints himself to repay Wei Wuji.
Seeing him agree, Wei Wuji’s face showed a trace of fatigue, and then he said, "All right, you can go back."
Upon hearing this, everyone left, leaving Wei Wuji alone in the courtyard.
"Ah..."
It was then that the old man let out a sigh of helplessness.
...
Time passed.
The next day.
In front of the General’s Compound in Lin Yuan City.
"Are you truly not going back?"
Wei Wushuang’s expression was slightly cold.
Wei Wuji, appearing old and with an air of decay, shook his head and said, "I’m not going. It’s quite nice staying here."
After speaking, he turned to look at Qin Zheng and continued, "This is the most talented disciple I’ve ever had, and I’d like to trouble Second Brother to bring him back to Capital City."
Wei Wushuang’s gaze shifted to look at Qin Zheng, his eyes showing a hint of wariness, and he said, "You’re giving away the opportunity you’ve accumulated over decades to him?"
Wei Wuji nodded affirmatively and said, "He will be Great Jin’s next National Martial Saint!"
"Pfft! You’re as blindly arrogant as you ever were!"
Wei Wushuang scoffed, then turned and got into the carriage, adding, "This is your choice; I won’t interfere with it, but Big Brother asked me to pass on a message to you."
"He doesn’t blame you!"
After saying that, he entered the carriage, which then slowly drove away.
