Chapter 2063: Chapter 2159: The Grand Operation

These past years, the Mountain Sect has always kept a very low profile and never stirred up any trouble, but now they suddenly pulled something like this—Su Xuan was absolutely sure they must be planning some big move!

"Sigh... Young Hero Su, to tell you the truth, the Mountain Sect has already challenged several Sects!"

Jingxuan Shitai also seemed a bit worried in her heart. Of course she clearly understood that this Mountain Sect wouldn’t give up so easily; she figured their next retaliation would be even more ferocious!

"What’s going on? Haven’t the Sects hardly had any conflicts these years?"

Su Xuan was also quite curious. From what he knew, nowadays the Sects had basically all transformed. After all, in this era of economic development, Martial Arts alone could no longer fully attract people, so the Sects had become heavily tied in with tourism!

Take Emei for example; it’s actually a Buddhist holy site of Huaxia, and every year a huge number of people come to Emei Mountain as tourists!

Because of the Sects’ transformation, the Sects now are very different from before. Although there are still people doing Cultivation, most of it is for fitness and health, or for self-cultivation and peace of mind, not purely for pursuing the Martial Path!

Of course, the Sects are also a major tourist attraction. Just like the Shaolin Martial Monks’ performances are highly praised! Emei’s Sword Array is also very pleasing to the eye, especially the female Disciples of Emei—already good-looking to begin with—and when they perform Emei’s Swordsmanship, it’s even more delightful to watch!

"Sigh, I really don’t know what that Mountain Sect is trying to do. After wiping out a few small Sects in a row, this time they’ve aimed their spearhead at Emei. I already knew about their plan, so I wanted to find Senior Sister to come back and hold the line, but I have no idea where she went!"

"So that’s how it is!"

In that instant, Su Xuan was also a bit surprised. It seemed the Mountain Sect had some special purpose.

"Just now I heard you say they’re after Emei’s Lightweight Secret Skill. Is that their real goal?"

Su Xuan asked in a low voice. He absolutely believed this matter was not simple! Japan had never given up these past years, always wanting to stir up some trouble here. Since Su Xuan had run into it, he was determined to look carefully into what was really going on!

"Yeah, that bunch of shameless Mountain Sect people claimed it was for Martial Path exchange, but in fact they were trying to seize the Sects’ Martial Arts Secret Manuals! Maybe that’s their true goal!"

After Su Xuan’s reminder, she suddenly felt that might indeed be the purpose of this whole thing!

"I’ve actually had contact with the Mountain Sect. They should be remnants left over from Japan during World War II. Looks like they have a special objective this time. They’ve been lurking in Huaxia for over half a century, and it seems they’re ready to start making moves!"

Su Xuan said softly.

"What? The Mountain Sect is from Japan!"

In that instant, Jingxuan Shitai was also shocked. She hadn’t expected such a huge secret to be hidden in all this; it was completely beyond her expectations!

"Yeah! Plum Blossom Three Strokes is actually a branch of Ninjutsu. I’ve run into it a few times before!"

Su Xuan said coldly, thinking to himself that Japan was really getting more and more full of itself. If he didn’t give them a harsh lesson, they’d really think they’d grown some skills!

"Looks like those thieves from Japan still refuse to give up!"

Jingxuan Shitai said with a face full of anger. It was clear that she was someone with a strong sense of patriotism and held a deep repulsion toward Japan!

"Although for now I’ve driven them back, that bunch won’t let this go so easily. To be honest, the reason I got injured that day was actually because I ran into a real expert!"

Su Xuan rather admired Jingxuan Shitai, so he didn’t hide anything and told her the truth!

"With skills like yours, there are still people who can injure you!"

Looking at Su Xuan, she was also stunned for a moment. She really hadn’t expected someone as strong as Su Xuan to be wounded by someone. Just what kind of person was that!

"Japan currently has mastered a kind of technology that can combine humans and machines, and even fuse genes. It’s extremely formidable. Under that kind of power, no matter how good your Kung Fu is, it’s hard to seriously damage them. I had already been injured before, so I almost lost my life!"

Su Xuan said with a very serious expression!

"So that’s how it is. Young Hero Su, in your opinion, will that expert come?"

"Very likely! Actually I’ve been thinking about this these days. No matter how advanced the technology is, all of it has to have an energy source. Dinosaurs had such overwhelming power, but the amount they had to eat is something we can hardly imagine. Cows are strong because their stomachs are big. Human power is small because we just eat a few bowls of rice and that’s enough. So I’ve been thinking, human-machine fusion is certainly terrifying, but the premise is that there must be an energy source. Where does all that energy come from?

The Genetic Plan also needs energy to support it. If we can find the mystery behind this, then these half-human, half-machine beings won’t be so hard to crack!"

Su Xuan said with a very serious expression. These days he had been thinking about this question the whole time, but up till now he still didn’t know what exactly it was!

"Makes sense!"

At this moment, Jingxuan Shitai already admired Su Xuan immensely. Truly smart—this kid’s comprehension and mindset were both something to be deeply impressed by!

"Young Hero Su, I have an impolite request. I don’t know if you’d be willing to agree!"

Looking at Su Xuan, she seemed a bit embarrassed to say it!

"You want me to stay a few days."

Su Xuan naturally knew Jingxuan wanted him to stay and help. After all, Emei’s current strength was quite weak. If the Mountain Sect came back in force, she had no confidence she could defeat them.

"Yeah, to be honest, Young Hero, in recent years Emei hasn’t produced anyone with exceptional talent, and everyone’s strength is just so-so. It’s really shameful to say!"

Looking at Su Xuan, she truly felt a little embarrassed. But this concerned the life and death of Emei. She could tell Su Xuan was very strong. If they had his help, that would naturally be great!

"That’s not a big problem. Since I’ve run into this matter, I can’t just walk away. Senior, you’re being too polite!"

Su Xuan said very seriously. Seeing him agree, Jingxuan Shitai was overjoyed. With Su Xuan willing to stay, her confidence increased a lot!

"Shitai, I know a Formation called Earth Damp 24. This Formation is very powerful. If we coordinate with this Earth Damp 24 Array, then there shouldn’t be much of a problem!"

Su Xuan said very seriously. He was very clear about the power of Earth Damp 24, and the cooperation among Emei’s female Disciples was actually quite good.
