Supreme Swordsman of the Nine Heavens

Village Chief Bu’s Real Genius (Part 2)

“Mu Yu told me Third Heaven Palace decides when the contest to determine the nine mystic immortals is held, meaning they can change the date at their discretion. When cultivators are shaken, we just need to spread false news that we need to urgently host the contest and call for all ultimate immortals. I guarantee they’ll support the notion. Third Heaven Palace can’t stop them if all of the ultimate immortals assemble at Ultimate Immortals Monument to activate it,” advised Village Chief Bu.

“The monument can be activated as long as we have two thirds of the ultimate immortals’ support. That will force Third Heaven Palace to hold the contest,” Mu Yu elaborated, demonstrating that he listened closely to Village Chief Bu’s stories growing up and therefore could keep up with the latter’s train of thought.

Growing up listening to Village Chief Bu’s stories contributed to Mu Yu’s innovative thinking later in life, evident in his ability to turn Heaven Stage formations into formations as lethal as Greater Heaven Stage formations.

“It’ll be your turn to take centre stage once it comes to that. Actually, you have three senior brothers who would also fight, right? If four of you are among the nine, Third Heaven Palace will be in deep trouble. The more trouble they have plaguing them, the greater our chances of winning. That’s how it went in ‘Mu Yu Strategically Captures White Tiger Pass’,” continued Village Chief Bu, adding embarrassing information unnecessarily.

“This old one sees he can learn a lot from you elder,” commended Zhuge Xiaosheng.

“Hehe, you are flattering me. Telling stories requires planning and thinking. Else, how could you f-, convince children, right, Mu Yu?”

“Yeah, you are the only one better than me,” replied Mu Yu.

“You should really read the chronicles I wrote around you. I used a hundred and eight different ways of describing your prodigious talent in all fields, including several formation casting ideas.”

“You have a biopic of yourself?” Zhuge Xiaosheng’s mouth slowly dropped.

“Yeah, it is called ‘Legends of Mu Yu’, and there is only one copy available. Would you like to read it? I lent it to Mu Yu a few days ago, so you can borrow it from him and learn his back story,” boasted Village Chief Bu.

“Stop, stop, Grandpa. It’s my secret. What if people learn my weakness from it?” disputed Mu Yu, despite not having even read the first page out of fear of embarrassment.

“Hmm, you have a point. Didn’t you say we could trust Patriarch Zhuge, though?”

“You do not trust me?” Zhuge Xiaosheng jested.

“Patriarch, please spare me. Most of it is fictional. The only true part is my name.”

“Hahaha, understood. That being said, Elder’s creativity has piqued my interest.”

Xiaoshuai voiced, “I got your back. I can tell you what happened. I never forget what I see, and I already read it a few days ago. The first volume, The Immortal Masters Kneel to Village Chief, starts off as, ‘Mu Yu made it in the nick of time and engaged the immortal master in three hundred epic rounds! It was so intense that the world was plunged into darkness! Like judges of good and evil, Mu Yu’s two flying swords emerged in a flash. With a single strike, sand and stones whipped into the air, thunder boomed and lightning flashed! With a single strike, the clouds immediately churned and the ground cr-”

Mu Yu shoved a drumstick in Xiaoshuai’s mouth. “I will loan it to you after I have a read, Patriarch.”

“I will be waiting, then.”

Over the next ten days, everything turned out the way Village Chief Bu predicted it would. After seizing an overwhelming victory, the eight great sects promised sects they could become aides of the eight great sects and be protected forever if they joined the fight against elemental demons, even going as far as promising their descendants the opportunity to enrol in the eight great sects. The offering was alluring because the support of the eight great sects was comparable to being placed on the express lane to stardom.

In response to the allegations made against Pill Cauldron Sect and Formation Sect, the two sects demanded that the nine mystic immortals be granted leadership roles, or they would refuse to partake in the fighting, hushing the protests.

“Brother Mu Yu, must you exterminate Secular World Sect?” Tian Ran questioned.

“I know what you’re worried about, but do you really want for there to be another victim? If you turn a blind eye to their deeds, would that not be the equivalent of letting them commit evil?”

“I only hate the Ascension Realm elders because they learn Secular World Emotion Severing Technique in their pursuit of power. They have grown so overbearing that they forbade any romance discussions amongst female disciples in the last two years. As a consequence, my senior sisters with crushes have had to give in.”

“What do you think we should do, then? Don’t forget that your mother is still trapped there.”

“… How about we just subdue the Ascension Realm elders? As of now, I am still the divine maiden. I, therefore, still have the authority to lead and abolish certain traditions. I want to return freedom to my seniors. Can we do that?”

“… All right. Let’s give it a try.”
