Legend of the Heavenly Fruit
Eps. 126 — Attacks Palace VIII

While at the south, east, and west gates are in battle respectively. At the north gate, Jiang Qisha was still fighting Guo Zhengxa.

"Only with this army do you want to destroy the palace, aren't you overconfident?" Jiang Qisha snorted in annoyance as he released a fireball towards his opponent.

Jiang Qisha and Guo Zhengxa had exchanged dozens of moves, none of the two of them being seeded on each other, arguably they had almost equal strength.

Guo Zhengxa dodged the fireball and repelled the rest with her footprint already shrouded in light. "This attack just opened, I'll show you the real assault..."

After saying so, Guo Zhengxa raised his hand and shot out a ball of light over the sky.

Jiang Qisha frowned, the ball of light exploded at a high enough height then exploded like fireworks.

Jiang Qisha was sure the light shot was not without reason, although it was still daytime everyone could see it clearly.

Not long after that explosion, something happened above the sky, hundreds of bird stealth came filling the sky of the palace.

"How, is this army of mine enough to destroy your palace?" Guo Zhengxa smiled mockingly.

Jiang Qisha's eyes widened, he did not respond at all to Guo Zhengxa's provocation, his attention fixed on the sky.

Jiang Qisha had heard there was a criminal organization that could control demons, but the organization in intent was not from the Moon Empire but the Sun Empire.

He did not know how the Sky Cloud Temple could make an alliance with them. Jiang Qisha could see from every bird demon that there were three riders on it.

Not only was Jiang Qisha shocked but all the palace soldiers and the organization army instantly stopped their fight for a moment, all attention was focused on the sky.

The stealth birds slowly began to lower their flying height, at a fairly safe height the riders began to jump into the interior of the palace.

"Dam-ch!"

Jiang Qisha clucked softly, he did not expect to get an attack above the sky. Jiang Qisha wanted to run to the interior of the palace but Guo Zhengxa did not let in and blocked his steps.

"Don't block me Zhengxa!" Jiang Qisha was full of anger.

Jiang Qisha had to save his grandson, if an attack from above then Jiang Yifei could be in danger.

"Oh, I just want to get in your way. I won't let you act as you please."

Jiang Qisha clucked in annoyance. "Don't make me act that makes us regret, Zhengxa!"

Jiang Qisha then released flames all over his body, the color of the flames was now no longer blue but white flames.

Guo Zhengxa smiled faintly. "Finally you fight seriously, then I will also use my full strength."

Guo Zhengxa's light element began to envelop his entire body and formed a glow seat. The two again collided with the moves that made the surrounding lands so vibrate.

"How can you?!" Zhou Yuan was surprised to see the bird stealth troops and watched as the riders began to descend around the interior of the palace, starting an assault on the soldiers.

"Young master..." The palace warrior who had been with Zhou Yuan since then had a pale expression seeing the situation deteriorate.

"Is there a bow here? I want you to carry as many arrows as possible and focus on attacking the bird demon. Someone has to handle the top here."

The soldiers nodded, the weaponry in the palace was very complete, everything was in the armory. The soldiers then left Zhou Yuan alone.

Zhou Yuan's gaze returned to the direction of the battle where the situation of the palace warriors was getting desperate. Zhou Yuan believed it was only a matter of time that the soldier would be slaughtered by the enemy forces.

"If there was Grandpa Bai, maybe all of this would be easy to deal with..." Zhou Yuan clenched his hands.

Zhou Yuan remembered the strength of the beggar Grandfather, he had never encountered a warrior who possessed such terrifying strength as Grandpa Bai who could split the seas.

Recalling Grandpa Bai making Zhou Yuan so recall his gift, Zhou Yuan took out a mirror the size of a hand.

"Grandfather Bai said this mirror could help me in a desperate position..." Zhou Yuan scratched his head. "I'm not sure but there's no harm in trying."

As Grandpa Bai instructed, Zhou Yuan slammed the mirror against the floor firmly.

The mirror then cracked, initially nothing happened but after a while a portal appeared above the mirror.

Zhou Yuan took two steps back when he saw it, he had only seen a portal for the first time in his life. The portal continued to grow to the size of an adult.

"Yuan'er, I didn't expect you to call me this fast."

Zhou Yuan heard someone's voice inside the portal, his voice was familiar and Zhou Yuan seemed to have known him.

"Grandfather Bai!" Zhou Yuan suddenly became enthusiastic.

Grandpa Bai yawned slowly, looking like he just woke up. Grandpa Bai looked around and was surprised he appeared in the middle of the war.

Grandpa Bai's gaze then directed at Zhou Yuan, he seemed to understand what Zhou Yuan was going to ask him.

"Yuan'er, I understand what you're going to say but you better forget about it..." Grandpa Bai smiled faintly.

Zhou Yuan's enthusiastic face faded, "Grandfather Bai, I need your help here. If the imperial government were to be destroyed by the party of the organization then the Moon Empire would be in a great mess..."

Zhou Yuan also said that the one attacking the palace at the moment was the organization of the Sky Cloud Temple, the organization that led all the organizations in the martial world.

If Grandpa Bai could finish off the leader and elders here then the organization would collapse with its alliance, with its power, it would not be difficult for Grandpa Bai to destroy them.

Zhou Yuan believed that Grandpa Bai would help him given that he had destroyed pirates before.

"Yuan'er, you seem to have misunderstood me... I don't side with anyone here, want the government or the criminal organization that leads the Empire, I don't care. I'm no longer involved in the martial world." Grandpa Bai smiled bitterly.

"But Grandpa Bai, if the situation is left like this to continue then evil will run rampant. We must destroy all evil in the martial world..." Zhou Yuan scratched his head, he actually did not have time to argue like this.

"The world will always have evil, so we can know good. We would not know the name of wealth if there was no poverty. They're all always there, Yuan'er, can't one be eliminated..."

Zhou Yuan's expression became bad, he understood that what Grandpa Bai said was indeed not wrong. The world is always balanced, there are invisible rules that balance both sides to stay equal.

Zhou Yuan's body felt so limp, he felt that Grandpa Bai would not help him.

Grandfather Bai looked at Zhou Yuan's expression, his lips smiling. "Relax Yuan'er, I won't be involved in martial arts but that doesn't mean I won't help you."

Zhou Yuan's face suddenly brightened. "I mean Grandpa?"

Grandpa Bai did not reply, he swung his hand instantly from void space appeared 4 golden swords that floated in the air.

Zhou Yuan took two steps back. "Magic..."

Grandpa Bai chuckled lightly while shaking his head. "It's a storage of space, you won't understand it because in this world there's nothing like this."

Zhou Yuan was indeed surprised, he had to admit that what Grandpa Bai did was completely out of his mind.

"I will borrow one of my heirlooms to you, a sword that you can control with just a thought. This sword-..." Grandfather Bai scratched his head seeing Zhou Yuan put on a puzzled face. "Ehm... It'll be hard to explain, you better understand it differently."

Grandfather Bai then touched Zhou Yuan's forehead with his index finger, instantly Zhou Yuan's head felt so sore.

The moment Grandpa Bai's finger was pulled back, Zhou Yuan could feel that there was foreign knowledge coming into his head, that knowledge was the way Zhou Yuan understood to move those 4 golden swords.

Not only did Grandpa Bai recover the power in the lost Zhou Yuan. Now Zhou Yuan returned to his prime.

"It's..."

Zhou Yuan did not understand why it could be like this but he realized everything was due to Grandpa Bai's actions.

"Grandfather Bai thank you..." After being given this kind of ability, Zhou Yuan was confident that he could reverse the war situation. Zhou Yuan then went towards the middle of the battle.

Grandfather Bai looked at Zhou Yuan's distant body before then turning his head toward the ongoing battle, he shook his head.

"At any time, human conflict will not end..."

Grandfather Bai chose to look at everything above the palace tower while sighing with time.

***

The interior of the palace was enough to make the palace soldiers troubled with the enemy troops who managed to break through so it was inconceivable when the bird demon came and brought the troops of other organizations, the palace soldiers were overwhelmed by it.

The palace soldiers felt resigned and wanted to surrender to find the number of enemy troops at least doubled from them.

The palace warriors grew even more desperate as some of his comrades began to fall to the ground, as their surrender would not survive any longer, a golden sword slid into their midst, killing a single troop of organizations.

Before everyone who saw reacted, the other three golden swords caught up and broke through the other 3 members of the organization.

All who watched looked sculpted let alone the action of the four golden swords did not get there. It began to float in midair and began to kill the surrounding organization troops.

The four golden swords had high sword sharpness, they shot out like arrows and hollowed out the swordsmen's bodies through them.

No matter which level they were at, the organization army was instantly killed by him in a single strike.
