Chapter 18 - Chapter 18 Seven Star Formation

Two years had passed since Mu Dishi return from Central Plains. Mu Dishi tried his best to stay inside the cave, but his memories of Ma Jingguo were everywhere, so he decided to leave the cave and visit the Mu's grave. On the twelve years anniversary of the death of the Mu clan, Mu Dishi decided to return to Central Plains to pay tribute to the dead.

When Mu Dishi was closer to the Mu graveyard, he saw Yong Hao wiping a tombstone. Mu Dishi walked along the hill towards the seventy-one tombs.

Yong Hao, "Mu gongzi."

Mu Dishi, "Mm."

Yong Hao, "Are you visiting again?"

Mu Dishi gave him an 'Mm' and walked up to Mu Village. When arrived at the bamboo hut, everything still looked the same as it was two years ago. He began to clean up the dust and picked up some broken objects around the hut. That night after he had eaten, he blew out the small candle and he climbed into bed. He lay in bed and didn't fall asleep until nearly midnight.

The next morning Mu Dishi went to the stream and set up a fish trap. He caught two fishes. When he walked back to his bamboo hut. He saw Yong Hao who was waiting for him.

Mu Dishi looked at Yong Hao and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Yong Hao, "Mu gongzi. How long are you plan to stay here?"

Mu Dishi, "Does it matter to you?"

Yong Hao, "I asked because if Mu gongzi don't want to go out, I will have the disciples drop off some food."

Mu Dishi, "I'll let you know if I need any." Mu Dishi looked at the one-armed man. He knew that the person standing infort of him must have repented. "The last time I fought with Yong Taihua, I noticed some flaws in the seven-stars formation. Those flaws provide the enemy with many opportunities to attack and defeat the seven-stars formation."

Yong Hao smiled, "Really?" He looked at Mu Dishi. "I am all ears for advice."

Mu Dishi, "The Yong was taken care of the Mu graveyard. I don't want to owe anyone a debt. I will teach you a new seven-stars formation in exchange for the Yong to take care of the Mu's graveyard for ten generations."

Yong Hao, "Mu gongzi, you don't have to."

Mu Dishi, "Choose three disciple who are willing to learn with their left hand, choose three that only use their right hand, and then choose a leader to lead them."

On the next day, Yong Hao shows up with Yong Gui, Yong Taihua, Yong Caixia, two female disciples, and three male disciples.

Mu Dishi, "Your's seven-stars formation is great, but the people who use the formation are not very skilled." He looked among the young students, and then asked, "Who are left-handed and who are right-handed?"

Yong Hao, "Taihua will be the leader of the group. Those three disciples are left-handed." He pointed to Yong Caixia and two male disciples. "These three here are right-handed." He pointed to the two women and one male disciples. "They are the best seven disciples in Sword Village."

Mu Dishi, "From now on, I will teach you the three right-handed for three days. After that, then I will teach the three-left handed for three days. On the seventh day, I will teach you seven how to combine Wuming moves with seven-stars Formation." He looked at Yong Taihua. "You will be here every day."

Mu Dishi picked up two swords and began to show Wuming moves to the young students. After showing them the moves, he looked at Yong Taihua and said coldly, "You will need to learn using both hands."

No matter how much Yong Taihua hates Mu Dishi, he admits that the swordsmanship that Mu Dishi just showed is the best swordsmanship he had ever seen.

Mu Dishi, "With Wuming moves, your seven-stars Formation will be impregnable."

For the next three months, the seven disciples of Sword Village practiced Wuming with Mu Dishi. Yong Taihua didn't leave bamboo forest because he has to be there every day and he was ordered by both Yong Gui and Yong Hao to stay behind to take care of Mu Dishi. After staying with Mu Dishi for the past three months Yong Taihua's hatred of Mu Dishi was no longer exists. He has only respect for Mu Dishi instead of hatred.

Mu Dishi and the seven were resting taking a break when a young disciples rushed into the bamboo forest.

Young Disciple, "Da ge...Caixia Shijie..." The young boy got to the table almost out of breath.

Yong Taihua, "What is it didi?"

Young disciple, "There are two young martial artists who are looking for a fight."

Yong Taihua, "Must be those newly martial artists who are trying to make a name for themselves."

Yong Caixia, "What are we going to do?"

Mu Dishi, "You seven go down."

When they arrived at Sword Village, they saw two young men in their late twenty were fighting with Yong Gui and six disciples of Sword Village. Yong Taihua can tell that these two men are highly skilled, and the weak Sword Village disciples were no match.

After some time, the seven-stars formation was broken, and the six Sword Village Disciples were badly injured. Yong Gui stood alone and had no choice but to continue fighting the two men.

When one of the men turned to hit Yong Gui, Yong Taihua flew over and blocked the attack. The man was caught off guard. The man stumbled servals steps backward toward the other man.

Yong Gui, "Taihua, why are you here?"

Yong Taihua helped Yong Gui to stands next to Yong Hao. He looked angrily at the two men. He looked at his six classmates, "Seven-stars formation!"

One of the men, "Hump, again?" He giggled.

Yong Taihua stood in the middle, holding two swords. The two female disciples and the one male disciple standing on the right held their swords on their right hands. Yong Caixia and the two male disciples held their swords on their left hands.

The two men attacked the seven people, but to everyone's surprise, only Yong Taihua counter attacked the two men. The six people surrounded the three fighting men inside the circle. After a while, Yong Taihua flew out of the encirclement, and the six people attacked the two men. The six people form a pair, one attack and the other defense.

Yong Taihua called out, "Change."

The three defenders stabs toward the two men's feet. In panic the two men jumped up. The attackers spun in circle and slicing the two men everywhere.

Yong Taihua shouted, "Separate."

The six disciples divided into two groups and quickly did two backward flips because Yong Taihua sent two power sword rays at the two wounded men. The two swords' rays hit the two men directly sending them fifty feet away, vomited a mouthful of blood.

One of the men grunted in pain, "We lose. The seven-stars formation is indeed undefeated."

The two injured men then left Sword Village.

Four months later, the seven disciples of Sword Village completed their training with Mu Dishi. He told them to never come up to bamboo forest again. Two days later in the evening, when Mu Dishi returned to his hut with two fishes, Yong Hao was waiting for him.

Mu Dishi said coldly, "I've made it clear; I don't want to see anyone."

Yong Hao, "I'm here just to pass a message."

Mu Dishi, "What is it?"

Yong Hao, "In two days in Jinfeng Sect, the young man who was looking for you and Miss Kuo the daughter of Master Kuo will get marry."

Mu Dishi, "Good for him. Is there anything else?"

Yong Hao, "Mu gongzi, are you planning to get marry?"

Mu Dishi scoffed, "So my enemies can take them hostage and kill them one by one again?"

Yong Hao, "What about the Mu bloodline?"

Mu Dishi said, "It will end with me. Before I die, I will make sure I empty that treasure cave. If you don't have anything else, then get out of my sight."

Yong Hao, "Amitabha...You have a good day Mu gongzi." Yong Hao then walked back to Mu Village.

Mu Dishi decided not to get marry a long time ago because he don't want to see another family member being kill in front of him. He took his two fishes and he walked back to the kitchen.
