Chapter 237 So exciting that I almost shut myself down
"Brother!"
Song Zhi, who was known as the "Earth Sword" in the world and was the second-largest figure in the Song Dynasty, was looking at his silent brother with worry on his face, not knowing what to say.
This is the Song clan's stronghold in Jiankang City. Ever since the eldest brother Song Que, the Heavenly Sword, heard the rumors coming from the hinterland of the northern Central Plains, he fell into silence for a long time.
Song Zhi sensed that his eldest brother was greatly stimulated, and he was definitely not as calm as he seemed on the surface.
However, the eldest brother is the pillar of the entire Song clan, and there must be no accidents, otherwise most of the Song clan's deterrent power will collapse instantly.
"Why should I care about what a clown who doesn't even dare to show his head says?"
I don't know how many times Song Zhi said this sentence, but he felt a little weak and unconvincing.
The key is, deep down in my heart, I have some idea that I agree with this statement.
What a hell...
I really didn’t expect that there is such a thing in the hinterland of the northern Central Plains.
How dare you take advantage of the moment when heroes from all over the world are competing for the inheritance of the Grand Master to speak out and criticize all parties and forces involved.
I don’t know where he got the confidence to even dare to criticize the Song clan.
But the problem is, this guy's comments are quite reliable and he has established a certain authority.
As a result, the last one came: Tiandao Song Que was a fool!
Moreover, what he said was reasonable and well-founded. For the first time, Song Zhi heard that besides being furious, he also had some thoughts of agreement deep in his heart.
It's no wonder that the eldest brother Song Que immediately shut himself up after hearing this.
The eldest brother Song Que is so arrogant. He has been called a genius by others since he was a child, and he has achieved such a big name at a young age.
The name "Heavenly Sword" is not just blown, but actually earned.
Later, in order to reach the master level, the eldest brother even stayed in seclusion in the Sharpening Hall for many years, and his cultivation level was unfathomable.
This time, the heroes competed for the inheritance of the grand master. Ning Daoqi, the number one person in the Central Plains arena, took action, but wasn't he blocked by his elder brother with a sword, so he was too discouraged to continue taking action?
Of course, as a leader among the first-class masters, Song Zhi also knew that Ning Daoqi had no desire to fight desperately, otherwise his elder brother would definitely not be able to survive.
But with such strength, in the mouth of the guy who hides his head and tail to comment on the characters, he said that the eldest brother is just the head of the family maintenance and cannot even surpass the strength of the ancestors. What is there to be so complacent about?
The words were quite unpleasant. If the other party hadn't kept hiding his true identity, Song Zhi would have immediately wanted to bring the masters of the Song Clan to ask for advice.
With such a poisonous mouth, I don’t know if the strength in my hands is as powerful as my mouth.
But no matter what, the eldest brother Song Que was indeed affected, and it seemed that the impact was not small, and he was autistic for several days.
Song Zhi was very anxious. If the outside heroes knew about this, the Song family's deterrent power would be greatly reduced.
If the 'Heavenly Sword' is not the number one sword in the world, and the status of the top master under his eldest brother Song Que's master is shaken, it will affect more than just his reputation.
If it weren't for the fierce fighting outside because of the Grand Master level inheritance, no one would pay attention to the situation on the Song clan's side for a while, and Song Zhi felt that he was going crazy.
"Don't worry, I'm just thinking about something!"
Suddenly, Song Que, who had been silent for several days, spoke.
The face of the standard middle-aged handsome man showed a hint of bitterness: "I was too proud. I ignored the inheritance of the family's grandmaster and insisted on creating my own grandmaster sword technique, but that person saw it.
Got it!"
"Brother!"
Song Zhi became even more worried when Song Que looked like this.
"Don't worry, I'm fine!"
After waving his hand, Song Que said calmly: "I understand now. Being immersed in the art of swords is a bit too much to take for granted!"
"There are so many inheritances from masters in the world, and there are also many inheritances of sword techniques, but I turn a blind eye and listen to them, and only focus on honing my own heavenly sword!"
Having said this, he shook his head and stood up, and said leisurely: "Xie Xuan's Jiu Shao Ding Yin Sword Technique, I, Song Que, will master it!"
"Brother, it's good if you can think about it!"
Song Zhi was full of joy, and a big stone finally fell to the ground in his heart.
Not to mention, the eldest brother, who was originally very concerned about Xie Xuan's inheritance, actually expressed his attitude like this.
That is the inheritance of swordsmanship at the Grand Master level. As a swordsman, how could Song Zhi not have any ideas and not covet it?
Now that he is better, he is even vaguely grateful to the person who has been hiding in the dark and making sharp comments on the heroes of the world.
Ahem, Wu Dong would never have thought that what he said was actually the real situation.
Song Beifeng, the ancestor of the Song family, indeed successfully broke through to the status of a master after settling in Lingnan, otherwise the beginning of the Song clan would not have been so smooth.
At that time, Song Beifeng was able to suppress the entire Lingnan by himself!
Of course, as the core guards around Xie An and Xie Xuan, they naturally use swordsmanship.
What is left to the descendants of the Song family is naturally the inheritance of swordsmanship at the master level.
It's a pity that the younger generation's martial arts talents are not enough, and none of them excels in sword practice.
Until the Song clan came out with Song Que, a talented warrior.
He is ranked among the best in the world at a young age and definitely has the potential to become a master.
It's a pity that the arrogant Song Que gave up swords and swords early and planned to create his own master sword technique.
This is nothing, it should be said to be courageous.
It's just that the world when Song Que rose to prominence has already declined severely.
It was when the Sui Dynasty was at its peak, and the only ones who were really famous were the generals of the Sui army. As for the martial arts warriors, there was really not much room for them to display their talents.
There are no strong masters among the older generation, and Shi Zhixuan and Zhu Yuyan, the most promising members of the new generation, are stuck under the master status for various reasons and cannot move.
Without the stimulation of masters of his generation, although Tiandao has a great reputation, it has been unable to take the final step.
But no one expected that the first person to reach the master level would be Ning Daoqi, a Taoist disciple who had no reputation before. This guy's temperament didn't like to be competitive.
Therefore, Tiandao could only stay in seclusion in the Sharpening Hall all year round, always thinking hard to break through the master's secret.
In terms of talent and talent, Song Zhi admired his eldest brother Song Que quite a lot. He had also heard the legends about the frontier wilderness spread by the man who was hiding in the dark.
Comparing the classics left by the family ancestors, we naturally know that that era really existed.
Sometimes I secretly thought that if the eldest brother had been born in that era, even if he was not as good as Tianshun Sun En, Sword Saint Yan Fei, the evil emperor Xiang Yutian and the generation of magician Mo Yiming, he would at least be able to become Zhu Faqing and Dan.
A powerful person of the same level as the Grand Master, right?
Worst case, becoming a powerful master is definitely not a problem.
It's just a pity that time and destiny are like this. As the guy hiding in the dark said, the current level of the world is really pitifully low.
Even Song Zhi himself, how could he not have any lofty ideals in his heart?
It's a pity that now, he is only a middle-level innate warrior, and there is still a big gap between him and the peak level. As for the grandmaster level, that's it.
"Remember, send someone to the hinterland of the Central Plains to investigate carefully and see if you can find out the guy who is hiding in secret and talking arrogantly!"
At this time, Song Que spoke again: "As far as I'm concerned, this guy is either a madman who doesn't live up to his name, or he's a real top expert!"
"I would like to get to know him and see what kind of strength he thinks can lead to the Dharma Eyes."
When he said this, Song Que's body was filled with a powerful sword intent soaring into the sky.
In an instant, it was as if the whole person had turned into a sharp sword, a sword that dared to break through the sky and ignore everything.
"Brother, don't worry, I've sent someone there a long time ago!"
Song Zhi smiled bitterly and subconsciously took a dozen steps back before saying helplessly: "Brother, please calm down, the children of the Song family in the stronghold can't stand it!"
snort!
Song Que snorted coldly, expressing his dissatisfaction, then turned around and left.
Seeing this, Song Zhi could only smile bitterly.
Of course he knew why his eldest brother was like this, and he had obviously heard the story about the legend of the Border Wilderness, and his morale was raised to target the most powerful person among them.
Naturally, he was dissatisfied with the fact that even the children of the Song family could not withstand his current momentum.
But there is nothing that can be done about it. Although the Song clan has been doing its best to cultivate its own children, it cannot really be forced if the children are not successful.
It can also be seen from this that the situation of the wealthy family is not optimistic.
This is not only the case for the Song Dynasty, but also for the other three gates.
I didn't think anything of it before, but now it seems to be a precursor to the family's rapid decline.
In fact, this clue can also be seen from the ending of the story of Double Dragon in the Tang Dynasty.
If Song Shidao, as the future head of the family, had not been able to stand up, would Song Que have been so confused that he would have agreed to Kou Zhong's unreliable proposal and supported Li Shimin to become the leader of the Central Plains?
When the Shaoshuai Army was at its peak, a small portion of the power was in the hands of the Song clan.
Even if Kou Zhong suddenly doesn't want to fight for world hegemony, the Song clan can take back these powers and become an armed force directly controlled by the family.
If the next head of the family, Song Shidao, is strong enough, and with the arrogance of Song Que, the Heavenly Sword, even if the entire Song clan is moved overseas, he will not bow his head easily.
You must know that the Earth Sword Song Zhi was an absolute hardliner at that time. If the Heavenly Sword Song Que decided to make a desperate move, the entire Song clan would work together to fight against the Tang Dynasty.
At first, Song Que was able to rely on his powerful martial arts to force Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty Yang Jian to let Lingnan become a state within a state. Later, it was not so easy for the Tang Dynasty to conquer Lingnan.
It can only be said that the performance of Song Shidao, the next head of the Song clan, completely disappointed Song Que, and then he put all his thoughts on honing his sword skills and hoping to achieve the status of a grandmaster.
Later, there was a high probability that it failed, otherwise the Song clan would not have disappeared so quickly in the Tang Dynasty just because there was a strong master in charge.
At present, whether it is Song Que who has regained his fighting spirit, or Song Zhi who is aware of the incompetence of his descendants, they will definitely not let this situation continue.
Gossip aside, the scene of Song Que's brazen attack was quite astonishing. His long sword was almost unstoppable, killing heads and causing rivers of blood to flow. He snatched Xie Xuan's Grand Master inheritance with his absolute formidable strength...
