Chapter 22: Exchange of Legendary Arts
"So, what's your purpose in coming here?" Shi Huang asked, somehow already seated in the leader's chair.
Long Tian, however, felt as if he was on trial under the scrutinizing gazes of the Elders. There are at least 30 Elders in this room.
He didn't expect that Shi Huang had prepared all of this.
"What's the meaning of all this?" Ling Han suddenly said, his voice filled with irritation.
"It's merely a formality. I couldn't possibly allow a member of the Long family to come here carelessly, especially their young master," Shi Huang replied.
"Is there a need to gather these Elders? We only want to discuss a few things, not declare war," Ling Han retorted, his voice rising with his annoyance.
"I understand your concern, but rest assured, we also do not wish to create any problems with the Long family. So, let's discuss the purpose of your visit," Shi Huang said.
"Well, let's get to the point. I want a training method from the Wudang Sect," Long Tian said.
Hearing this, the expressions of the Elders varied. There were furrowed brows, suspicion, curiosity, and anger.
Nevertheless, Shi Huang remained calm. "In our sect rules, it is not allowed to give techniques or training methods to outsiders, you know that, don't you, Long Tian?" He questioned.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Of course I know, but what if I still want that training method?" Long Tian asked, his voice deepening as he crossed his arms.
Some Elders grew uneasy with Long Tian's attitude, but they dared not voice their displeasure since Long Tian was the young master of the Long family.
Meanwhile, Ling Han was ready for any eventuality, prepared to do everything to protect Long Tian if the Wudang Sect made a move.
Still, Shi Huang maintained his composed posture, "What training method are you referring to?" He asked.
"The Thousand Stars Method," Long Tian casually replied.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions changed to shock, including Shi Huang's.
"That's impossible, we won't give you that method!" An elder protested.
"Indeed, it's a treasure of our sect!" Another agreed.
"No matter who he is, don't give him that training method!"
"I agree!"
"Agreed..."
The previously quiet room turned chaotic as the Elders expressed their rejection towards Long Tian.
Of course, they all knew about the Thousand Stars Method, it was one of the legacy items left by Zhuangzhi, the great taoist.
That training method had existed for five hundred years, but despite this, no one had been able to master it.
Meanwhile, Shi Huang waved his hand, signaling for calm. The room quickly returned to its previous tranquility.
"Long Tian, your request is unreasonable. Do you realize how valuable that training method is to us? It's a treasure of our sect. Even if you were a member, I wouldn't easily give it to you," Shi Huang said firmly.
"Calm down, Master Shi, of course I don't want the method for free. I want to trade with you," he said, a smile playing on his lips.
"What do you mean?" Shi Huang furrowed his brow.
Long Tian produced a scroll and tossed it to Shi Huang.
Shi Huang caught the scroll and examined it.
His eyes widened when he saw the title, Cursed Technique: Soul Bonding. His heart pounded faster, and he quickly glanced at an elderly man beside him, instructing him to come closer.
The old man approached, and Shi Huang handed the scroll to him, "Is this genuine, Elder Hu?" He asked earnestly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHu Jian examined the scroll, startled by its title. He looked at Shi Huang in disbelief, "Impossible, this is a lost legendary technique," he declared earnestly.
"Is it genuine?" Shi Huang asked, a seriousness on his face.
"Let me see," Hu Jian said, beginning to unroll the scroll.
He was immediately greeted by ancient Chinese characters. He continued to read.
Shi Huang, on the other hand, stroked his chin and glanced at the scroll. Soul Bonding, it was a significant technique in the history of Taoism.
He had once read a manuscript that mentioned it, a technique that existed for thousands of years, created by a great Taoist, Laozhi.
"Master Shi, I believe this technique is genuine, I can't find anything amiss," Hu Jian started sweating, said earnestly.
Hearing this, Shi Huang grew serious. This was a legendary technique, yet, it was in Long Tian's possession.
He stood up, looking at Long Tian, "So, you intend to exchange the Thousand Stars Method with this Soul Bonding technique?" He asked.
"Exactly," Long Tian nodded, a confident smile on his face.
"What if I refuse? The technique is in my hands now, I could just keep it," Shi Huang said, his voice deepening.
As Long Tian was about to respond, Ling Han suddenly stepped forward, "If you take the technique, you should be prepared to witness the destruction of the Wudang Sect."
