At that moment outside of the Tiegang Hall, Xuanyuan Yiren was standing beneath the stone steps looking on.
Her small hands were clenched tight. Sometimes she relaxed it. She wanted to take a peak but the stone hall was totally sealed up. The few windows were all opened in high areas.
She could only wait on helplessly outside. She wished she had Day Wandering realm skills such that she could directly see through the stone wall.
“Who knew how the conversation between Zong Shou and my Father went?”
Thinking about how cold and solemn Xuanyuan Tong was when she walked out, her brows furrowed, filled with worry. However, after a while, she calmed herself down.
Zong Shou had a great speaking ability and was always really polite. He would definitely be able to have a good conversation with her father. As long as he revealed a few of his skills, her parents would not be worried. Actually, there was nothing she should be afraid of.
If he knew about his sword skills, her Father would be like Hu Qianqiu. That amount of surprise. Who knows he might drag him and drink a huge jug.
Thinking about it, Xuanyuan Yiren revealed a look of anticipation, the corner of her lips raised upwards, her smile was really bright.
The martial cultivators in armor guarding around were all startled. Although they didn’t know why she was so happy, this smile was really nice to see and pleasing to the eyes.
But once they thought about how this flower could be stuck on the body of the person in the hall, they felt worried.
…
Within the stone hall, there was none of the friendliness that she imagined. Blade images were plenty as Zong Shou’s body totally turned into a blur. In the eyes of many, there were as many different Zong Shou. However, it also looked like he was stuck to the spot from start to finish.
Following closely behind was a loud “Keng”. When that sky full of sword light ended, only to see Zhu Junhou’s spear, Tan Tao’s mandarin duck knives had for some reason struck the same spot.
In the eyes of the two of them, before they could even show surprise they were already hit back several steps by the huge power of the enemy.
The sword light from Zong Shou’s hand spurted our once more. Looking really starry and spotty, as it covered Zhu Junhou. In his mouth, he gave a simple scoff, “Stop!”
Zhu Junhou’s eyes shine sharply, filled with rage. In the next moment, he was shocked. Only to see the sword light in front of him transform into something like the Milky Way, crashing down on him, looking really dazzling and eye-catching. It made one blurry, only feeling that everything around his body was filled with weaknesses. Where that sword light pointed to was his weak point, covering all his spots.
In the next moment, he finally understood Luo Xian’s pain, why he was being beaten like a fool by Zong Shou.
…Such a sword was pretty much unstoppable and unavoidable! Under this sword cover like the stars in the sky, one felt totally out of place. One totally didn’t know how they should react!
How would this Gantian Mountain prince have such an exquisite and terrifying sword technique? Where did he learn it from?
Shocked for that moment, Zhu Junhou bit the tip of his tongue and knew that there was no other way against this sword technique. One had to go for the head, with no fear for one’s life.
Once the true qi in his body had gathered, he felt his wrist was tapped simply by something. Following which he couldn’t hold onto the short spear in his hand, as it was tossed outwards in a spiral.
When the sky full of blades stopped, Zong Shou who was at the back looked over, his eyes furrowing before regaining calm once more.
“Oh, you are a decent person and know some manners. I won’t beat you up..”
The sword light shone once more and hit on the sides of his two legs, causing Zhu Junhou to be paralyzed on the ground, unable to move. And that short spear had only now slowly spun to a stop, stabbing beside his head. He could even clearly feel the cold knife aura.
Zhu Junhou’s face flushed red. At that moment he didn’t show any happiness or good fortune, it was just shock and shame.
What kind of a Monster is this teen? The 2 swords he saw was sword intent that he had never seen. Even if it wasn’t, it was close to that level. This was actually from the Son of his savior.
All of a sudden he didn’t know whether or not he should be furious or happy.
“Sword intent, it’s actually sword intent.”
At the depths of the hall, Xuanyuan Tong’s hands had already started to tremble. The broken wine glass shrapnels had turned into dust, rolling down from his hands.
The first sword was cloud shocking god destroying sword intent, merging with the sky fox race illusion ability which even he was unable to see through. Now was the Milky Way sword intent, after the sword came out, it was like a Milky Way appearing, really eye-catching.
His current mood was several times more complicated than before.
Every sword that Zong Shou smacked Luo Xian with seem to be heavily hitting his face. He felt really ashamed, whilst also feeling heart pained for his subordinate which was being heavily injured. He was also showing some bit of regret. The last sentence that he said to Luo Xian before smacking him directly pierced into his heart.
He knew that his words most probably hurt the kid’s heart which made him so furious.
He couldn’t help but laugh bitterly. The Son of his old friend had such an ability. He should feel happy, but for some reason, he couldn’t.
Li Sina was rooted to the spot in a daze, her eyes wide as she looked on.
Speaking of which during the initial few days Yiren had told her that her future fiancé would definitely surprise her. She also said that she was the one that wasn’t good enough. At that time she didn’t believe her at all…
Zong Shou’s mind was still a mess. However, he instinctively handled the spear using at the side. The feeling that Zhu Junhou gave him was really really dangerous! He was several times more dangerous than Luo Xian and Tan Tao.
Just now he had the element of surprise. If they really fought, he might not be able to win. Anyways that was a topic for another day.
Once he turned around, he saw Tan Tao holding the pair of mandarin duck knives charging over. His expression was a never before seen seriousness and solemness. When that knife glow broke out, it was really dense, giving off no empty spaces. Like a huge storm, pretty much going all out to crazily chop down.
Zong Shou’s eyes constructed, then he smiled from habit. He took a step, forwards instead of backward. Like when he was turning in the current of the black water pond, really leisure but extremely swift. He moved left and right through all the knife images, dodging left and right. After 10 odd steps when he was about to force the mandarin duck knives to a corner, that sword that everyone nearly forgot about shone once more. Leisurely stabbing out!
Like a pike fish at the bottom of the ocean, like that of a sharp arrow, weaving in the knife light as he pointed right at Tan Tao’s throat.
This sword was what he created in the water, with was why he named it against the current!
Stabbing out millions of times underwater to smash the currents, that is how it got its name. After so many countless times of training, it might not be as weird as the Styx ricer death sword, or as exquisite as the cloud shocking god destroying sword, but this sword was unsolvable! In the past and today, there was no exception!
Tan Tao instantly felt a chill down his spine, his knife glow danced but it was no use at all. The sword light stabbed right at the gaps of his mandarin duck knife like it was really familiar with his sword path. When it changed he was forced to try to cover up but he failed.
He could only frantically retreat, crazily retreat! But that sword light was like a leech to his body, following closely. Swiftly heading right for his throat!
Just as Tan Tao was feeling despair and Xuanyuan Tong couldn’t help but stand up to try to save him, that sword light suddenly turned back and slightly tapped the wrists of Tan Tao.
The 2 mandarin duck knives flew up, spinning in the air before landing and pinning him onto the ground.
However, the energy in Tan Tao’s body also went into chaos at that moment as he stood rooted to the ground. The sword light slashing down in the sky.
“You scheming man, I dislike you. You deserve to be beaten!”
Directly smashing his face with a sword, drawing a bloody wound. Zong Shou thought back to what happened before and scoffed, “Your mouth is not bad, you talk a lot!”
That light spun back once more and the sword spine smashed the left of his face.
Just as Tan Tao recovered a bit of energy, he was heavily injured. A mouthful of blood was spat out. He only felt extremely furious. He prided himself for being smart and strong in the martial path. In Xuan Mountain City, he had huge power, only below 2-3 people. When people looked at him they were all respectful. Even those high-status ones, those stronger than him in the martial path were also courteous.
When has he been humiliated like this in his life?
What he was worried about now was that whether or not he would be like Luo Xian, ferociously beaten up by this teen. Then he would really have no face to meet others.
Luckily after Zong Shou thought about it, although he still had some anger, he still had to give some face. The words he said were all true and there was nothing false. If he still beat him up it felt really unreasonable.
Before this when he was younger and just rose up he loved to do things according to his will. However when he returned to the library to seclude himself and slowly cultivate his heart, then he became calm.
So in this life, he would treat people virtuously.
The sword light flipping again and heavily smashing on Luo Xian who struggled to get up.
“You still want to climb up, have you not given up?”
Luo Xian’s head was covered in blood. When his Chin smacked the ground it gave out a cracking sound. Cracks started to form on the ground made of Tiegang Stone. His eyes were filled with loss, devoid of energy. He had no fury in him, only a fear that stabbed into the depths of his heart as well as deep helplessness.
Zong Shou’s eyes from start to finish were looking at Xuanyuan Tong.
