Chapter 1012 -306: Mengxia’s Moon Leap

Complainingly, he glanced at Tang Luo. Elder Xu Ying grumbled, “You wouldn’t know, but today is the Mong Xia jumping the moon festival. Many Mosuo people have come to the village, and they will leave tomorrow…”

“Mong Xia jumping the moon festival?” Tang Luo, who considered himself well-read, heard of this festival for the first time, so he inquired, “Is there anything special about this day?”

“You know about the month of mid-spring, right?” Elder Xu Ying chuckled, “The so-called month of mid-spring sees men and women, at this time, running free without restraint. This Mong Xia jumping the moon festival is a custom of the Mt. Immortal Blue clans.”

Although Tang Luo did not know what Mong Xia jumping the moon was, after listening to the explanation of the month of mid-spring, he and Ji Fu roughly understood the inclination of this festival—nothing more than some sort of mass wedding and outdoor coupling custom.

Sure enough, an excited Elder Xu Ying immediately began educating the two men on the origins of Mong Xia jumping the moon: “This year is an odd year, so it’s the boys from Zhaba Earth Stockade who go to the Mosuo village, while the Mosuo girls come to Zhaba. Men and women meet in the fields, calling it jumping the moon! Tonight, the village will pick a flat land for the moon field, adorned with blooming flowers and bright costumes. Singing in groups. Dozens gather, with women’s songs responding to men’s, whirling in song and dance, jesting all day long. At dusk, they take their chosen ones back home, dispersing only come morning.”

Remembering the grand scenes under the moon, Elder Xu Ying was even more intrigued, his peach-blossom eyes roving as he invited the two brothers, “This Mong Xia jumping the moon happens only once a year, and it’s a grand event of Mt. Immortal Blue—why don’t you brothers join me…”

“Stop right there!” Tang Luo decisively interrupted Elder Xu Ying’s unrealistic fantasy and said indifferently, “Enjoy such a merry program by yourself; no need to involve me. I came to you for serious business. If our talk goes well, you should be able to make it back in time for the Mong Xia jumping the moon festival!”

“Why didn’t you say so earlier!” The lustful Elder Xu Ying instantly became solemn, speaking earnestly to Tang Luo and Ji Fu, “Your matters, brothers, are my matters. What’s a Mong Xia jumping the moon festival compared to that? Just wait, I’ll be right back!”

After his grand proclamations, Elder Xu Ying transformed into a sword shadow, rushing back into the crowd that had already hog-tied and hefted a giant black wild boar. He bustled about for a bit, happily pocketing back the rings and bracelets, then with a serious face approached Tang Luo and Ji Fu: “Time is of the essence; let’s set off!”

Unable to help but smile, Ji Fu shook his head and pointed in the direction of Ghost King Mountain, “It’s this way.”

The three of them were among the top powerhouses of their time, and naturally, their aerial speed was extraordinary. It wasn’t long before they arrived at the domain of Ghost King Ridge. To be completely sure, the three of them directly descended into a secret chamber in the secluded stream, with Ji Chen standing guard outside; they were virtually invulnerable.

Ji Fu, who had invited Elder Xu Ying to Ghost King Ridge, didn’t beat around the bush and got straight to the point, “Younger Brother, the reason I’ve sought you out is to ask a favor!”

Elder Xu Ying had few friends, so few he could count them on one hand, and he cherished each one deeply. He would never refuse a request from a friend, and this was especially true for Ji Fu: “Big Brother and I are sworn as brothers; if you have a request, just ask. As long as it doesn’t go against my principles, I’ll not refuse!”

“Good!” Ji Fu’s eyes twinkled with a smile as he nodded, “Big Brother would like to borrow your Emperor’s Void Phoenix Divine Sword.”

The Emperor’s Void Phoenix Divine Sword was Xu Sheng’s personal sword, as well as the legacy left by Xu Sheng to the Xu Clan upon his passing. If not for Elder Xu Ying displaying an exceptionally strong talent for Spiritual Power, the Xu Clan would not have made an exception to grant him the Divine Sword.

Had it been any other disciple of the holy lands, even if their own parents asked to borrow the sword, they would have made a thousand excuses. But Elder Xu Ying did not hesitate; channeling the Tongming Sword Body, he took the Divine Sword in hand, looking ready to hand it over. However, his hand stopped midway, as if suddenly recalling something, he stiffened and turned to Ji Fu to ask, “What do you need the sword for?”

“Armor Break.”

“What armor?”

“The number one Divine Armor in the south!”

“Hiss~~~” Xu Lao Ying inhaled sharply, finally realizing the cause of the earlier alarm and said with a pained expression, “Big brother, your request is really too…”

Ji Fu thought Xu Lao Ying was worried about the Xu Clan being implicated after using the Divine Sword to break the armor, so he hurriedly explained, “The Armor Break is meant for a one-strike kill, and the Han Family has an illusionary soldier technique that can alter the aura of the Emperor’s Void Phoenix Divine Sword to that of a divine saber, this way no one will suspect it coming from the Xu Clan. You have nothing to worry about, brother!”

“Big brother, I’m not worried about that.” Xu Lao Ying thrust the Divine Sword into the ground and said in a harsh tone, “Although Wang Chan really changed a lot after joining the Dutian Heavenly King’s patrol, he is, after all, my friend. Not to mention that he is the Wang Clan’s Saint Child, even if he were merely a commoner, I couldn’t let you plot to take his life!”

Although Ji Fu had anticipated Xu Lao Ying’s refusal to lend the sword, he never imagined the reason would be this.

He hadn’t known Xu Lao Ying for long, but he had come to understand his sworn brother’s temperament and knew just how much weight the word ‘friend’ held in his eyes.

For Xu Lao Ying, sticking a knife in for a friend was a minor matter, which was also the biggest reason why Ji Fu sincerely treated him as a brother. But now, this greatest strength had become a stumbling block for his own side, which left Ji Fu greatly miscalculated.

Having refused Ji Fu, Xu Lao Ying turned to Tang Luo and asked, “Cousin, your heart hasn’t shown a hint of turmoil, which means my reaction is already within your expectations. If that’s the case, why did you still reveal this news to me?”

“Even though I knew you wouldn’t agree, Wang Chan is ultimately your friend, and I had to inform you before we acted, otherwise, how can we be brothers?” Tang Luo’s expression remained calm, as natural as if he were notifying family about going shopping, “The thought to kill Wang Chan was my idea, but it’s not the only solution to the problem. If you can convince Wang Chan to give up on his mission in Beimang and persuade the Wuyi Sect to withdraw entirely, that would be the best outcome for everyone!”

Xu Lao Ying could only shake his head with a wry smile upon hearing Tang Luo’s words, knowing too well his stubborn and crazy friend, “If Wang Chan refuses to give up on his mission in Beimang, will you kill him?”

“Correct, because he is the true soul of the Wuyi Sect. Without Wang Chan, the Wuyi Sect is just a rabble.” Tang Luo nodded, “But the Wuyi Sect’s potential under Wang Chan is too terrifying. If allowed to continue developing, the Wang Clan of the south will eventually come to recognize this force. By that time, not only will the Ji Clan be exposed, but my Tang Clan won’t be able to escape either! If there were a choice, no one would take such a huge risk to kill a Saint Child, would they?”

Aware that he couldn’t persuade Wang Chan, Xu Lao Ying still tried to find an excuse and blurted out, “Wang Chan has the Nirvana Feathered Robe, you can’t kill him!”

Focusing his mind and channeling Spiritual Power into the Star Core, Tang Luo said faintly to Xu Lao Ying, “Use your Tongming Sword Body to sense my aura!”
