Legend of the Great Sage

ge for the marquis!”

“Alright, then I’ll kill you untameable dogs!”

Li Qingshan sneered, about to carry out a massacre.

With a rip, Gu Yanying tore out another page of the White Ape Sword Classic and called out, “Take them out!”

The two eighth layer innate realm swordsmen exchanged glances and drew their swords.
With a flash, the people who called out for revenge all collapsed on the ground.
They also killed a few others caught up in the disturbance, stabilising the situation.
Thick blood began to flow, dyeing the decorated hall red.

Sheathing their swords, they stood forward and clasped their hands.
“Manor lord, Hou Hongtao’s remaining allies have all been beheaded.
We are not with them, so please spare us!”

The martial arts community had always respected the strong.
Lowering their heads to people like them was nothing humiliating.
In hindsight, they clearly possessed such great strength, yet they had been relatively reserved the entire time.
They even offered up the White Ape Sword Classic to share with everyone.
Hou Hongtao’s actions were basically as foolish as it could be.
He really had lived up to what they said, that they only knew how to respect a monkey and not a tiger, only to die in the tiger’s mouth in the very end.

Gu Yanying said nothing else.
She tossed down the page, and the two people extended their hands, each grabbing a half and refusing to let go.

“From today onwards, you will be responsible for the matters in the external courtyard.
I name you the protectors of the left and the right.”

“The protector of the right thanks the manor lord!”

In the current world, there was bias against the left, so one of them immediately let go of the page and bowed gratefully, stealing the position of the protector of the right.
The sword manual was available for anyone to view anyway.

The other person cursed inside, but all he could do was bow gratefully as well.
“The protector of the left thanks the manor lord.
Manor lord, I don’t practice the Fierce Fire true qi, but I can heal these women.”

“Me too.”

“Then I’ll leave this matter to you.
I don’t wish to see anyone be punished again for learning the sword.
I want everyone in this mountain manor to be able to learn.
I want martial arts to be available for everyone to practice so that everyone has the opportunity to become supreme masters!”

Li Qingshan spread his arms and announced loudly, trying his best to hold back his smile.

The two protectors said in a hurry, “Kind-hearted be the manor lord.
As you wish!”

The regular swordsmen all roused with enthusiasm from that.
Who did not want to be a supreme master? They raised their arms and cheered, “Martial arts for everyone to learn!”

The woman called “Fei Hong” even began shedding tears emotionally.
“I will never forget the manor lord’s kindness!”

“Pick up the sword!” Li Qingshan said.

Fei Hong picked up the Fierce Fire sword in a hurry.

“From today onwards, the sword belongs to you.
Learn the sword well.
I think you can definitely become a supreme master.
Don’t let my hopes down.”

“Yes, manor lord.” Fei Hong choked back sobs.

Li Qingshan finally could not hold back his laughter anymore.
“I’m going back to rest! Everyone, practise the sword well!”

……

The banquet at night was extremely sumptuous, and Li Qingshan had another hearty drink.
During the feast, Fei Yuanyuan carefully made her way over and asked if they wanted the back kitchen to cook the Marquis of the Fierce Fire Sword as well.

Li Qingshan was speechless.
He waved his hand and declined, which let Yuan Feifei and everyone else in the mountain manor let out a great sigh of relief.

Li Qingshan listened to Gu Yanying’s summary of this world’s cultures and geography.
He suddenly slapped his knee.
“I know what kind of book to write!”

“I thought you were just going to copy out the books you wrote in the nine provinces again!”

“That’s because you’re an outsider to this trade.
The audience is completely different!” Li Qingshan said complacently.

“Then what do you plan on writing about?” Gu Yanying asked curiously.

“The White Ape King’s chronicles.”

Gu Yanying immediately understood.
“I see.
That really is a good idea.
By then, probably everyone in the world would want to buy a copy and take a look.”

They were clueless about the White Ape King’s life, but none of that was important.
What was truly important was the White Ape Sword Classic.
As long as they could write the sword style in the book, did they have to worry that no one would buy it?

By then, there really would be martial arts for everyone.
