Martial Hero Rebirth

Chapter 177: Five Mountain Swords Alliance

Lin Yi ran into his palace and changed from his training clothes into the robe of a chief disciple, taking with him a sword that replaced the emblem. Having done everything in less than a minute, he half-runned to the main palace, where Elder Qin was already listening to Ouyang Ming’s instructions..

“Master Ming, Elder Qin, Lin Yi has come at your call,” he reported as he entered the room.

“Oh, you’re fast,” Ouyang Ming smiled. “Can you guess why I called you??”

“Three years have passed since the last meeting of the Five Sacred Swords, and a new one is approaching,” Lin Yi replied, pretending to think for a second..

Ouyang Ming nodded with satisfaction and said:

“The Five Sacred Swords is one of the most important events of the Alliance. And also a demonstration of the strength of each of our sects. But this time, due to the tense situation, the position of the chief disciple of the Five Mountain Swords Sects will be discussed during the meeting.”

“The main disciple of the Alliance?!” Lin Yi exclaimed in amazement.

He was pretending, of course. He had long known about this, as well as the reasons. The vicious cults have become too active on the borders of the righteous territories, because of this, the alliance decided to appoint a supreme commander capable of coordinating all five sects at once. Unfortunately, this made it even worse. Due to internal contradictions, the exchange of intelligence data between them almost ceased.

But for ordinary students, the reason for appointing a chief student will be the transitional era and the choice of ideology for the future generation. Which would work pretty well, but the elders were too entrenched in their worldviews to change anything. It was they who did not allow the sects to unite in the game and clench their five fingers into a fist that could protect against vicious cults.

Because the old people sincerely believed in the weakness of vicious cults. They believed that they would never start a real war. Alas, a full-scale invasion quickly put everything in its place. The enemies exceeded even their worst expectations, with all five sects suffering heavy losses. The plan to unite the alliance into a single sect failed miserably.

After that it was too late to do anything. The vicious cults made even communication problematic, and defeated the army of each of the five sects one by one. After that, they plundered every city and village on their way, exterminating people like vermin..

Lin Yi sympathized with them. If the five sects united, the army of evil cults would not be able to break through their ranks so easily.

But they have been given a second chance. Lin Yi would not only protect the five sects, but also take advantage of the chaotic era to surpass Shaolin and Wudang. Everything will belong to Huashan.

Ouyang Ming nodded:

“I made an agreement with the heads of the four sects. The situation is too tense, so it was decided to choose a main disciple who will prepare the alliance for war.”

After saying this, he looked at Lin Yi with a feeling of high expectations:

“And I hope you can win and climb to the top of the five mountains. I have closely followed your reforms throughout this year, all of which have brought us great benefits. Huashan's strength grew faster every day than it did a year before your appointment. We have found countless talents. I am sure that if you become the main disciple of the alliance, all five sects will be reborn. The younger generation will now follow you to the ends of the earth, so I believe in you! Then, even if I die, I will not be ashamed before my forefathers!”

Lin Yi opened his eyes wide and shook his head.:

“I can become the main student of the alliance, but you, Master, must become the leader! Only everyone will obey your authority, and if I sit on the throne, I’m afraid no one will listen to me..”

Ouyang Ming smiled and patted him on the shoulder:

“Elder Qin and all the disciples you choose will go with you. Go to Songshan Mountain and return victorious. I hope in a year you will make the entire Alliance as strong as Huashan.”

Lin Yi pressed his hand to his chest and bowed:

“Don't worry, Master, victory will definitely be mine!”

Ouyang Ming nodded in satisfaction..

Lin Yi folded his palms in a gesture of politeness and turned to the side.

“Elder Qin, sorry for the difficulties and let me thank you for your help.”

“Oh, forget it. Just become the main student, otherwise I’ll give you such a slap on the head that you’ll fly back to Huashan!”

“I definitely will. Allow me to take my leave,” Lin Yi bowed again and left the hall..

Ouyang Ming followed his back with his eyes and said in a slightly worried voice:

“Brother, do you think he can win??”

“The chances are considerable,” Qin nodded confidently. “How much has he done for Huashan this year? Have you even seen his formation? In my opinion, the guy has already prepared us for war.”

“I don’t know how so many ambitious ideas came into his head, but I get the impression that he sincerely believes that the evil cults will throw all their forces at our mountain.”

“Yes, forget it too. There is a chance - so give your head a rest, let the child figure it out. If the demons don't attack, it's for the best. And if they attack, then we are already ready.”

Ouyang Ming nodded and sighed.:

“With Lin Yi, I don't have to worry about the future of Huashan.”

“Yeah, he's a blessing to our mountain. As if he came from a legend. When he grows up a little, he can give Huashan into his hands and retire.”

Ouyang Ming snorted and shook his head.:

“Be careful on the road and take good care of your students. The world is turbulent right now, and I receive reports every day about demons crossing the border. Several units entered the Central Plains and disappeared. Perhaps they are here for Lin Yi.”

Elder Qin became serious and nodded.:

“Don't worry Master, I'll be vigilant all the way!”

“Yeah, go get ready.”

.˙.

Lin Yi returned to his palace nervous and excited.

Ahead lay a great chance to grab a large part of the world. There won't be another like it.

Naturally, he really wanted to become the chief disciple of the five sects.

But more importantly, the fate of the Alliance will be in his hands. It will take a perfect plan to get it right..

After all, the war was approaching. There were only a few days left. The scouts have already infiltrated the Central Plains and all of them will be attacked on the way back. The losses will be heavy. Apart from the great elders who will lead the younger generation, only a few disciples will survive.

But they are all geniuses of the Alliance. Losing one is a disaster. But a few hundred actually robbed them of a whole generation.

Therefore, Lin Yi ordered all branches to maintain combat readiness, and the three closest to the border to also send scouts ahead so that the approach of the enemy would become known at least a few hours in advance.

“Hopefully this will avoid heavy losses,” Lin Yi muttered..

There was no choice, he had to rely on the Huashan disciples. He did everything he could. As a last resort, they will be able to retreat to Hangzhou and will not suffer the same heavy losses.

As for Songshan... they stood next to Shaolin, so the demons would not attack their mountain for now. Although in the game, at some point, even Shaolin was burned to the ground. Songshan was destroyed just along the way.

But it doesn't matter. It was safe there now.

Having given these orders, Lin Yi calmed down. There were scouts along the entire Huashan border, and Liushanmen were stationed in every village and city. Demons could not enter their lands undetected, like last time. In fact, with the forces with which they made their way in the game, they will not be able to enter the territory of Huashan at all.

So now the most important thing was to participate in the Five Sacred Swords Competition.

Lin Yi decided to take with him three hundred disciples from the upper court and twenty true ones, including Linghu Feng, Wu Shouyu, and Yu Zecheng. It turned out to be a fairly strong team.

He also took Han Bai, Yu Hai, and Jiang Xiaoyu so that he would have someone to command the Huashan Formation while he distracted the strongest opponents.

Three days later, all the people he had chosen gathered at the foot of Huashan and set off together.
