Chapter 659: Chapter 396 Legalist Semi-Saint_2

Ximen Du also smiled slightly and said, "It was fate that my brother and I would die at your hands today. Those people exchanged their lives for our cultivation; it was also fate. All this was destined from the moment they were born, no, from millions of years ago when heaven and earth first opened."

The dozens of Martial Arts Grandmasters present, including the middle-aged man who was a Semi-Saint, showed a bit of confusion upon hearing Ximen Du’s words.

Ximen Guji sat on the ground, a look of regret on his face, and said, "Unfortunately, the aptitude of the two of us is dull and cannot compare to our ancestors. Even with this evil path, we still cannot glimpse the path of the Saints, nor can we see the truth of the world..."

He looked at Dongfang Xuan and said, "Since you and I happened to meet, before dying, I entrust you with two things."

Dongfang Xuan was silent for a moment before saying, "Speak."

Ximen Gu took out a yellowed book from his sleeve and said, "The Yin Yang Technique of the Ximen family was originally not like it is today. This heartfelt effort of our predecessors from the Ximen family, I hope you can help me pass it on to someone destined for it..."

As someone whose inheritance was also about to be severed, Dongfang Xuan could understand his thoughts. He took the book from him and solemnly said, "I will."

Ximen Gu lifted his head and said, "The other thing... after the two of us die, please erect a tombstone for us. If you become a Saint someday, I hope you can come to our graves and tell us what our ancestors truly saw back then. That way, the two of us will die without regret..."

Dongfang Xuan did not hesitate to say, "If by then, I haven’t turned into a madman... I will tell you."

"Thank you."

The two brothers raised their hands with difficulty, slightly clasped their fists, and in the next moment, their hands fell limp.

Their heads fell simultaneously.

As Semi-Saints, both men would rather voluntarily give up their remaining meager life spans than allow themselves to be judged by others.

Holding the book, Dongfang Xuan could not help but feel a sense of sorrow in his heart.

It was not sympathy for the Ximen family’s two Semi-Saints.

He just saw himself in them and witnessed more of the sorrow of the Yin Yang School...

Compared to the Confucian, Legalism, Martial Artists..., they see more, see further, can see fate, even manipulate fate, making everyone fear them.

But their lifelong cultivation only awaits a mad ending of death, like moths to a flame, dying without living...

However, if one day, he can see the truth of the world, see what lies beyond the skies, even if he were to die instantly, he would have no regrets.

Li Nuo turned his gaze away from the bodies of the two Semi-Saints of the Ximen family, looking at the virtual Law Code before him.

The sixty years of life lost in exchange for Sixth Realm cultivation had already been compensated.

Each exchange for cultivation would lose thirty years of life, but judging a Sixth Realm would then increase life by thirty years.

More than the increase in longevity, the Legalism power within him had also undergone some changes.

The True Qi of Legalism within his Dantian flickered between reality and illusion, and the aura around Li Nuo was also intermittent.

He knew very well that he was just one step away from being a Semi-Saint of Legalism.

Li Nuo looked at Dongfang Xuan and said, "Senior Dongfang, I must immediately enter seclusion, I’ll leave this place to you..."

Dongfang Xuan nodded and said, "Don’t worry."

During this time, he had been by Li Nuo’s side and was already familiar with various procedures.

Li Nuo entered the deepest courtyard of the Ximen Mansion, closing the courtyard gate.

The two Semi-Saints of the Ximen family were already dead, and Ximen Jian and dozens of guards from the Ximen family were temporarily detained at the Ximen Mansion. Dongfang Xuan’s gaze turned to the black-clad man who had been standing there.

The black-clad man rubbed his hands, somewhat awkwardly saying, "Actually, I am not familiar with the people of the Ximen family; this time, I came to ask Ximen Guji some questions. He wanted to go to the Yue Country and asked for a lift; I couldn’t refuse. I mean no harm to you..."

...

Yue Country.

Capital, Bo State.

Suddenly, the Central Army stationed outside the city blocked all the gates of Bo State, preventing anyone from entering or leaving.

At the same time, part of the army entered Bo State, driving straight into the Imperial Palace and seizing the Emperor of the Yue Country.

The various Imperial Family members and nobles of the Yue Country were all swiftly taken down.

Within Bo State, people were in a panic; citizens hid in their homes, bolting doors and windows. The streets were deserted, the only sounds being fearful tremors emanating from various houses and residences.

"What’s going on, has the Central Army rebelled?"

"They even entered the Imperial Palace; this must be a coup!"

"I just saw from the gap in the door that those princes and nobles were captured too; something big is happening!"

"What about the Wei Country people? Didn’t they send experts to secretly protect the Imperial Family? Why haven’t they appeared?"

...

Just when the residents of Bo State were full of suspicion about the sudden situation.

In the deepest courtyard of the Ximen Mansion, a figure sitting cross-legged beneath a tree slowly opened his eyes.

If previously there was a young man’s unconcealable sharpness, now his sharpness was restrained. Except for his outstanding appearance and extraordinary demeanor, there seemed to be nothing remarkable about him.

The Legalism power within him had completely vanished.

It had truly disappeared.

Yet around him in the void, another more mystical power was everywhere.

This was the Power of Laws of this world.

The deaths of the two Semi-Saints had finally pushed him into becoming a Semi-Saint of Legalism.
