This chapter is updated by Novelfree.ml

Under Luo Mingxuan’s guidance, Lei Wujie and the others made their way at full speed until they arrived at a valley. Right outside the valley, there was a marsh and the marsh was filled with the remnants of broken swords of various sizes. At a glance, it seemed like there were nearly a thousand swords.

Lei Wujie hurriedly reined in his horse, his expression showing a bit of excitement. "I know this, this is… this is!"

"Yes, beyond this valley is the Sword Heart Tomb, the number one family in sword forging. This is the entrance, the Sword Tomb Gate," Luo Mingxuan said with a smile. "But this marsh has been laid with an array. Only the sword guardians of Sword Heart Tomb know the way in. If you go in without knowing the way, you’ll be swallowed up by the marsh. We need to wait for them now."

"Er-di, I’ll bring up the rear, you lead them through the array first!" An angry roar came at them. Lei Wujie and the others hurriedly turned their heads, only to see the seven Hidden River assassins chasing Sword Heart Tomb’s He Qu and He Cong coming towards them. The two of them appeared injured with wounds all over their bodies.

He Cong rushed up to them, and whispered, "Look carefully at my steps. Don’t miss a single one! Remember!" Then, with a light push of his toe, he jumped onto a rock on the marsh, and then jumped again, and after more than a dozen jumps, he landed on the other side of the marsh. Lei Wujie and Sikong Qianluo, who was carrying Xiao Se, followed immediately after and leaped over. Luo Mingxuan saw that He Qu was going to fight seven people on his own, his skills were so fast that they were indiscernible, but right at that moment, he was struck hard by Su Changli’s great sword and had to retreat. Luo Mingxuan immediately took a step forward and waved his sleeve. "Watch my hidden weapons!"

Dozens of dice flew out towards Su Changli and the others. They hurriedly used their swords to block and He Qu was able to catch his breath. He immediately grabbed Luo Mingxuan, and drew back. Xie Hui and Xie Ling, who had the highest level of movement cultivation in the Hidden River, took a step forward and sneered. They jumped onto the marsh, following He Qu’s steps, leaping step by step, exactly the same as where He Qu stepped, except they were three steps behind.

Su Hongxi and Su Ziyi also tried to chase after but Su Changli held out his great sword and stopped them both.

"What is it?" Su Hongxi asked.

Su Changli shook his head slightly and frowned. "The two of them are already dead."

"Change array!" He Qu took Luo Mingxuan past the last step.

He Cong nodded lightly, reached into an indentation on the side of the rock, and twisted slightly. The whole marsh came alive, and the remnants of the swords began to change positions rapidly. Xie Hui and Xie Ling were shocked. They were on the last step, but now they’d been completely trapped within the marsh. Just before they could call for help, they were completely swallowed.

"There are twelve changes in the array of the Sword Tomb Gate. The two of them were too careless." Mu Ying's voice was cold.

Su Changli thought for a while, thrusting the great sword in his hand forcefully into the ground, and said in a deep voice, "Sword Heart Tomb has only one entrance, and similarly, there is only one exit."

The two brothers He Qu and He Cong did not say much, and hurriedly took Lei Wujie and the others into the valley. The group of them walked through a dark and narrow tunnel for almost an incense stick, until Lei Wujie felt a faint light coming from the front. He accelerated the last few steps through the hole, and couldn't help but exclaim.

It was a small world of its own.

A world of swords.

All along the side of the valley were sword-forging houses lined up one after the other. Inside, many shirtless men were sweating and working on forging swords. On the road, some people sped past on a horse-drawn carriage. At the back of the carriage was a whole stack of finished swords, gleaming in the sunlight, their finest quality obvious from a glance.

"So many swords." Lei Wujie's eyes lit up.

He Cong smiled shyly. "But these swords are going to be destroyed."

"Huh?" Lei Wujie asked in surprise.

"This is the Sword Heart Tomb, where we forge only the best swords under Heaven. As long as the swords are not top grade, they will be taken out and destroyed. The carcasses of swords that you saw at the Sword Tomb Gate are such failed swords!" He Qu proudly said. Except, as soon as he exerted strength to speak, the wounds on his body opened and fresh blood poured out.

He Cong hurried to help him. "Don't talk anymore. We need to hurry to the Sword Pavilion immediately and look for the old master."

At this time, a carriage came roaring towards them and sitting up front were two identical girls. Their complexions were not considered beautiful, but they had a heroic aura about them, with eyebrows that appeared tougher than most men. The only difference between the two is that one of them had a mole between her eyebrows. They hurriedly reined in the horses when they spotted everyone. The girl with the mole between her brows looked at He Qu and He Cong and said in surprise. "Weren’t you just outside to meet the guest from Snow Moon City? How did you get injured so badly?"

"It's a long story." He Cong sighed. "These are guests from Snow Moon City."

The girl was stunned, and asked, "Didn't the letter say that there’s only one?"

"No time to explain." He Cong carried He Qu onto the carriage. "We must go to the Sword Pavilion to treat his injuries first."

Sikong Qianluo also hurried forward with Xiao Se. "My shidi was also injured and has been in a coma for a while now. I beg you to heal him too."

Seeing Sikong Qianluo's earnest eyes, the girl nodded immediately without hesitation. "Of course. I will take you all to the Sword Pavilion first. Wu Tian, come afterwards with the other two guests from Snow Moon City."

The other girl beside her nodded, and flipped off the carriage. The girl with a mole between her brows immediately waved her whip, and the carriage rushed towards a tall pavilion in the distance.

"He Qu He Cong, Wu Fa Wu Tian. Presumably these are the other two sword guardians sisters of Sword Heart Tomb, Wu Fa and Wu Tian," Luo Mingxuan said.

The girl who had flipped to dismount nodded. "Exactly. I am Wu Tian."

Luo Mingxuan hurriedly clasped his fists. "Disciple of Snow Moon City Elder Yin Luoxia, Luo Mingxuan."

Wu Tian nodded. "You are the person mentioned in the letter, then this one is…"

Lei Wujie also hurriedly clasped his fists. "Disciple of Snow Moon City Second Citymaster, Lei Wujie."

Wu Tian was stunned for a moment. "Sword Immortal's disciple? Why was this not mentioned in the letter?"

Lei Wujie gave a wry smile, and could only explain what happened along the way. How two of them had started on a trip from Snow Moon City to Qingcheng Mountain, and how they were on their way to Lei Clan, but inexplicably encountered two waves of assassins from Hidden River and were being hunted down, until finally they accidentally released the Thousand City Order, which coincided with Luo Mingxuan, He Qu and He Cong being nearby and was rescued. But until now, they couldn’t figure out why they were being hunted.

After listening to the whole story, Wu Tian thought for a while, and shook her head. "I can’t think of any reason for this either. But, the Hidden River do not kill without reason. Someone must have paid a high price for your heads. I will bring you to see the old master first. Maybe the old master can think of a way to help you."

"Who’s the old master?" Lei Wujie asked.

"Of course he’s the head of Sword Heart Tomb! Stupid!" Luo Mingxuan said disdainfully, striding forward.

Lei Wujie gave a soft "Oh", but appeared pensive.
