“Xu Fengnian, what you’re saying seems a bit impolite. Although I don’t care about these things, you should think about it carefully.”
"Given my status, if I were to pass on all my skills to these disciples, how would the other martial arts practitioners survive?"
"At that time, our disciples of Wangjian Mountain will be invincible once they go down the mountain. Do you think I, as a martial saint, would do something so absurd?"
Ye Fan spoke with great pride, after all, in his own mind, there was a bit of boasting involved in what he said.
But there is indeed such a reason.
It should be noted that those who were able to come to this Wangjian Mountain, as disciples of the Martial Saint of the Mortal World, all possessed very good foundations.
Otherwise, how could he have become the disciple of Martial Saint Ye Fan?
Under these circumstances, although Ye Fan had a deep understanding of martial arts, he was more devoted to the way of the sword.
Moreover, back then, when I came to Wangjian Mountain, it was ultimately only for Li Hanyi.
So many years have passed, why should I dwell on those things, even though my swordsmanship has now reached the pinnacle of human skill?
With just a single thought, one can ascend to the ranks of the celestial beings.
However, under such circumstances, one might not even have the heart to study martial arts.
Moreover, in his mind, there might not be much of a fundamental difference between swordsmanship and hand-to-hand combat.
Although he is currently unarmed, the sword can appear in his hands anytime, anywhere, if he so desires.
In other words, these things are simply beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.
So what if Xu Fengnian lives in the Northern Cold Prince's Mansion?
You should know that the Northern Cold King's Mansion has a Listening Tide Pavilion, which houses all the martial arts manuals in the world.
Moreover, any martial artist who manages to enter that secret martial arts realm will emerge as a martial arts master.
At the very least, that's a master of the celestial level.
However, for ordinary people, there is probably no possibility or opportunity at all to enter this Qing Dynasty pavilion.
To date, in Martial Saint Ye Fan's memory, only Minister Nangong has been able to enter the Listening Tide Pavilion of the Northern Cold King's Mansion.
It is said that Nangong Pushe was born a man, but had the appearance of a woman. Moreover, he was naturally beautiful, dressed in white, and looked like a fairy, like a celestial being.
However, under these circumstances, the Martial Saint of the Human World didn't know much about that person at all.
After all, back then, he followed His Highness the Crown Prince into the Northern Cold Prince's Mansion.
Over the years, I have had absolutely no interaction with the Martial Saint.
Therefore, he had no idea how much martial arts skill Xu Fengnian actually possessed; he only knew that the Northern Cold Prince's Mansion had such a treasure trove of martial arts secrets.
Xu Fengnian truly had no interest in martial arts, and it was truly a mystery what this young prince was thinking.
"Under these circumstances, our Wangjian Mountain has always been famous throughout the world, and you can inquire about it freely among all the martial arts in the world."
"Which sect can rival my Wangjian Mountain in swordsmanship?"
"Perhaps as people of the martial arts world, they all know that under such circumstances, Wangjian Mountain can be considered a holy land for weapons like swords."
"Therefore, we don't care about fists and kicks at all."
"Your Highness can experience the power of forging a sword with sword intent anytime, anywhere, as long as you wish."
After hearing the words of the Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm, Xu Fengnian broke out in a cold sweat. Although he was arrogant and domineering in the Northern Cold.
However, upon arriving at Wangjian Mountain, he harbored reservations about the words of the Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm.
Chapter 221 It’s better to be careful
Don't let Xu Fengnian's sometimes absurd behavior and the things he does fool you; he's not stupid. On the contrary, he's quite clever.
Since he was chosen as the successor by the King of Northern Cold, this guy must have a very shrewd mind.
However, in the eyes of the world, Xu Fengnian was just a spoiled young master who didn't have any real skills.
Whether you judge him by his martial arts skills or his literary and military prowess, this guy is utterly useless. He has neither ability nor strength.
He was merely relying on his father's prestige to do good deeds in the Northern Cold.
He could act without restraint in the Northern Cold, but now that he had come to this Wangjian Mountain and heard the Martial Saint say such a thing to him, Xu Fengnian naturally understood.
If this Martial Saint were to casually cast a thought, my life would be in grave danger.
Regardless of how powerful the Northern Cold King really is, once he arrives at Wangjian Mountain, his Northern Cold Army, renowned for its bravery and skill in battle, may indeed be utterly vulnerable.
Xu Fengnian had absolutely no doubt about what the Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm had said.
After all, he had personally witnessed the strength of the Sword God Li Chungang.
How brave it is for one person to withstand an army of thousands.
Moreover, compared to this mortal martial saint, the sword god Li Chungang is far inferior.
When the Martial Saint was first born, Li Chungang probably had no chance of fighting him at all.
Now that the Martial Saint has continued cultivating for so long, just how powerful is he?
I'm afraid no one in this world is even qualified to know.
In other words, he has been included among the celestial beings.
How could ordinary mortals possibly compare to them?
"Legend has it that the Martial Saint was able to forge a sword with his will 20 years ago, and that sword could open the Heavenly Gate at will."
"He was many times stronger than that old general, Li Chungang."
"Under these circumstances, Xu Fengnian had naturally heard some of it."
"I am ashamed, please do not take offense, Martial Saint."
Xu Fengnian glanced at the Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm with a broad smile, and then spoke.
The Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm also found it somewhat amusing; in his opinion, Xu Fengnian was truly shameless.
With such an attitude towards himself, it's truly baffling what this guy is thinking all day long.
The Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm naturally had absolute confidence in his own strength.
Moreover, in his memory, under such circumstances, he naturally had a very clear understanding of these matters.
However, under these circumstances, he did not make any suggestions to Xu Fengnian.
He could end his life anytime, anywhere, if he wanted to.
"Alright, alright, I know Your Highness didn't mean any harm in saying that, but now that we're on Wangjian Mountain, I advise you to behave yourself."
"After all, your Northern Han has already pledged allegiance to our Wangjian Mountain. Under these circumstances, Your Highness's arrogance is such that even if I don't care, my disciples will probably not stand for it."
"If His Highness suffers a loss on Wangjian Mountain, wouldn't that be a huge loss?"
At this moment, Ye Fan, the Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm, spoke calmly to Xu Fengnian.
Requesting flowers (or flowers)
After hearing this, Xu Fengnian naturally understood what Ye Fan meant.
Was he warning himself? Or was he reminding himself?
What exactly does this guy mean by saying that?
Xu Fengnian naturally knew that Ye Fan's words were entirely reasonable and beyond reproach.
Even someone of such high status as a martial saint might not even bother with me.
However, none of his disciples are easy to mess with.
... .... ......
Putting aside others, just look at his eldest disciple. The moment he met him, he wanted to fight him. His purpose was very simple: to teach him a lesson.
Although Xu Fengnian has learned some skills, so what?
Xu Fengnian's personality doesn't allow others to easily witness his strength.
Moreover, in his view, although Bei Han had already submitted to Wangjian Mountain and become a martial saint in the human world.
It could be considered a cooperative relationship, but even so, Xu Fengnian was not at all at ease.
After all, in his impression, the strength of this Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm was simply too formidable. Even looking at the entire world, there was no one who could compare with the Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm.
However, he now feels very close to Wangjian Mountain.
Under these circumstances, as long as they can obtain the assistance of that Martial Saint, Bei Han will surely be invincible in the future.
"I understand, I understand. The Martial Saint is right, the Martial Saint is right."
“I understand all of that, of course.”
"However, I was somewhat surprised to see that even the Martial Saint's disciple was inferior to my servant."
Chapter 222 A Rare Young Person
After hearing Xu Fengnian's words, Ye Fan, the Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm, felt even more helpless.
In his view, Xu Fengnian was flexible and adaptable. With his own strength, it would be easy for him to teach Xu Fengnian a lesson, and he wouldn't have any effort at all.
But just as I just said, the lofty and powerful martial saint of the mortal realm is dealing with an ordinary prince.
