At Su Wen’s residence, a figure appeared. It was that young swordsman.
He still had a wooden sword at his waist and was wearing the same thin clothes.
He walked up and knocked on the door.
The door opened and a guard sized up the young man. If it wasn’t for Su Wen giving them instructions prior to this, he would have thought that this was a beggar wanting to request for alms.
“Are you here to redeem the sword from my Young Master?” The guard asked.
The young man nodded.
“Wait here.”
With that, the guard closed the door.
The young man remained expressionless, standing on the same spot without any change in expression.
After a while, the door opened again and Ning Shuang appeared at the entrance this time.
She looked up and down at the young man before saying with disdain, “If you want to see my young master, you can’t look like this. You’re too smelly!”
The youth looked at her and said, “I just washed it yesterday!”
Ningshuang was furious. “If I say it stinks, it stinks! Do you want to see my young master? If you do, let them bring you to change your clothes! Take a bath! This is the rule of our residence!”
The youth was silent for a moment before saying, “You let him come out to see me, and I’ll give him the money. He can just give me the sword. Why go through all this trouble?”
“I just want you to take a shower and change. Why are you so talkative?”
The young man said in a low voice, “Then I won’t go in. I’ll wait for him at the door. Tell him to bring his sword when he comes out.”
With that said, he walked to the side and stood under the tree by the gate.
His body appeared a bit stooped, but it was extremely stable. When he moved, there were few unnecessary movements.
Ning Shuang was helpless. Su Wen was the one who instructed her to find a way to get this guy to change his clothes and take a bath. It was best if she could even get him to eat something.
However, from the looks of it, it was not going to work.
Ning Shuang could only return and report what happened.
Su Wen narrowed his eyes upon hearing this.
By his side, Zhao Jin frowned, “This person is slightly stubborn. Young Master, I’m afraid your plans won’t be so easily realized.”
Su Wen shook his head and got up to leave. Zhao Jin hurriedly followed him.
The door opened and Su Wen looked at the young man with a smile. “You’re a really boring person.”
The young man turned and took out two copper coins. “I have brought the money,” he said. “Where is the sword?”
Su Wen rolled his eyes and said, “The price has increased, I want two thousand taels now!”
“You…” The young man finally showed a reaction.
Clearly, he was still a little angry from Su Wen’s provocation.
After staring at Su Wen for a while, the young man turned around and left.
“You don’t want the sword anymore?”
“No!”
Su Wen said leisurely, “If you don’t want the sword, then I’ll kill the stall owner! She will die because of you!”
The youth stopped in his tracks.
He turned around and looked at Su Wen, but his expression had completely changed!
His eyes were filled with cold killing intent.
It was obvious that he could not accept that the boss would die because of him, even if he was the one that had left his sword at the stall.
Zhao Jin took a step forward and stood between Su Wen and the youth.
The youth stared at Zhao Jin before slowly speaking, “You are not my match. Move aside, or you will die!”
Zhao Jin glanced at the wooden sword at his waist and sneered, “You might not win!”
In the next second, the youth moved and his sword was drawn!
The wooden sword at his waist instantly stabbed out, as the young man’s imposing aura burst forth.
Like an unsheathed blade, even Su Wen could clearly feel the sharpness in his aura!
Zhao Jin let out a strange cry as his body quickly curled up. But when he move, there was already a soft sword held in his hand.
As for Su Wen, he had already run away!
As the two exchanged blows, Sword Qi permeated the air.
The gates of Su Wen’s residence was the first victim.
In an instant, both the gates and the walls surrounding the residence were penetrated by the Sword Qi!
When martial artists at the Earth Rank fought, the scattered qi was no small matter.
Su Wen only wanted to provoke this emotionless fellow.
But never in his dreams did he expect this fellow to be so valiant, directly attacking without a word.
As Zhao Jin, who was in battle, most clearly felt the danger!
It was truly as the youth had said. Zhao Jin had actually been suppressed in a fight against him.
But Zhao Jinming could clearly feel that his cultivation was one Grade higher than the youth’s!
One had to know that the higher the level of a martial artist, the lower the possibility of being able to cross realms to fight.
No matter how one looked at it, Zhao Jin was still an Earth Rank 6th Grade martial artist. But at this time, he wasn’t able to gain the slightest advantage against this youth.
In terms of quality of True Qi, Zhao Jin was superior, but the Sword Qi that this youth was releasing far surpassed Zhao Jin’s.
The Sword Qi was condensed and did not disperse, as if it was corporeal. Although it was brandished by a wooden sword, it suppressed the sharp blade in Zhao Jin’s hand!
“Brother Jin, don’t hold back! Just kill him!”
At this moment, Su Wen shouted from behind.
Hearing this, the sword in Zhao Jin’s hand danced as he shouted, “Watch my God Vanquishing Swordplay!”
Zhao Jin’s True Qi brazenly erupted. The sky was suddenly filled with sword shadows, emitting an overwhelming Sword Qi!
The youth quickly responded to his move.
However, with a swing of the wooden sword, he belatedly realized that all of the Sword Qi were actually superficial!
Right then, within the waves of Sword Qi, Zhao Jin raised his left hand slightly.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The sound of air breaking could be heard.
Several sleeve arrows shot out from his hands!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The youth’s sword danced to protect his body. Resounding metallic noises could be heard as all the arrows were blocked.
But then…
Bang bang boom!
An explosion sounded closely after.
The sleeve arrows were all equipped with explosive devices!
A second hidden weapon was formed by the scattered metal shards!
The youth however was really impressive. His sword dance was airtight. No matter how many fragments there were, they could not cause him any harm!
At this moment, Zhao Jin charged forwards once more, roaring, “Now look at my Demon Slaying Swordplay!”
As he roared, he swung his sword down!
The youth raised his sword to meet it!
The two swords clashed, or rather, the sword qi from both sides collided!
This time, Zhao Jin wasn’t bluffing. Instead, he focused all of his strength on his sword!
For a time, both sides were in a deadlock.
Right at this moment, Zhao Jin suddenly flipped his left hand, and the ring on his index finger flashed with a blue light!
“Spirit Artifact — Thunder Cry!”
A bolt of blue lightning shot out!
Fortunately, the youth was constantly paying attention to Zhao Jin’s movements.
The moment his left hand had moved, the youth had already pushed aside the longsword in Zhao Jin’s right hand with all his strength, pulling back the wooden sword to defend!
The lightning struck the wooden sword dead on!
In the end, he managed to defend himself from this sneak attack.
“Despicable and shameless! Die!”
The youth turned to look at Zhao Jin, but right at this moment, he suddenly felt slightly dizzy!
“There was poisonous smoke in the sleeve arrows!”
The young man immediately understood.
He had been tricked!
However, in a battle between experts, such an opening was enough.
Just as his body swayed, Zhao Jin had already rushed to his side. His fingers moved continuously, and in an instant, all of the acupoints on the young man’s body were sealed.
His internal True Qi immediately became sluggish!
Immediately after, Zhao Jin took out several black locks and clapped them on the youth.
Zhao Jin laughed smugly and said, “Haha, kid, now that you’ve been locked by these Origin Power Cuffs, you won’t be able to mobilize the True Qi in your body no matter what tricks you have. Come, if you think you can defeat me with your physical strength, then you can try!”
At this moment, Su Wen walked out from the side and said with a smile, “Brother Jin, looks like these things that my father gave you really came in useful.”
