Legend of Swordsman - Chapter 2360
Chapter 2349: Jian Wushuang And Xiang Yi
In the air before the Lin Mansion’s doors, a total of eight figures stood upright.
Other than Xiang Zong, the family head of Xiang Family, and that burly old man, the remaining six were all wearing uniform golden robes. At the back of the golden robes and between their two sleeves, there was an embroidered picture of a small black cauldron.
The small cauldron was the identifying symbol of the Golden Cauldron Sect. Clearly, six of them were from the Golden Cauldron Sect. Moreover, judging from the auras that were emanating from them, they were all Chaotic Divine Demons.
It was especially so for an ominous-looking young man with black hair and a bald man carrying a sabre.
The auras from the two of them overwhelmed everyone around. Without a doubt, they were Second Grade Divine Demons.
That ominous-looking young man with black hair was none other than Xiang Yi from the Xiang Family!
“There are two Second Grade Divine Demons?”
Jian Wushuang and the other experts of Lin Mansion appeared before the mansion’s door. Sensing the powerful auras of the six Golden Cauldron Sect experts, many Lin Mansion experts paled.
Even Jian Wushuang furrowed his brows.
If there was only one Second Grade Divine Demon, he wouldn’t be that worried. However, if both of them teamed up, he would probably be under pressure.
Although the remaining four were Third Grade Divine Demons, their auras weren’t ordinary. Two of them weren’t inferior to Lin Tiefeng. Clearly, they were also the most elite Third Grade Divine Demons.
This line-up was extremely strong and it would be easy for them to sweep through any family in Anjiu Prefecture.
“This looks like trouble!”
Lin Tiefeng was flabbergasted as he stared deadly at the eight Chaotic Divine Demons. Although he knew the answer, he still asked, “Xiang Zong, what does your Xiang Family want?”
“What do I want? Hehe.” Xiang Zong replied with a cold smirk. “Lin Tiefeng, we will put aside the feud between our Xiang Family and Lin Mansion. Today, we are here for him! Jian Wushuang!!”
“So you are Jian Wushuang?”” Xiang Yi’s eyes were chilling as he turned to face Jian Wushuang.
“Yeah, I am.” Jian Wushuang nodded indifferently.
“So you are the one who killed my sister?” Intense killing intention showed in Xiang Yi’s eyes.
“If you are speaking of the Divine Demon Realm expert that I killed from the Xiang Family, you are right. I killed her,” Jian Wushuang said with a smile.
“How dare you kill my sister!! If I can’t break your bones and burn you to ashes today, then my name’s not Xiang Yi!” Xiang Yi screeched, overwhelmed with bloodlust.
“Xiang Yi.” Fire Fairy took a step forward and said, “There must be a misunderstanding here. Jian Wushuang is a distinguished guest of our Thunder Sound Sect. Could you do my Thunder Sound Sect a favor today?”
“Do a favour for Thunder Sound Sect? Hah! How hilarious! What’s your Thunder Sound Sect?” Xiang Yi scoffed. “Even if he’s a core disciple of Thunder Sound Sect or a disciple of some Elders or sect leader, he will have to die since he killed my sister! Moreover, I know he isn’t related to the Thunder Sound Sect! Fire Fairy, step aside now! Otherwise, I’ll kill you as well!”
Xiang Yi had been blinded by anger and wasn’t afraid of Fire Fairy or the Thunder Sound Sect behind her.
This was important. Although Thunder Sound Sect was a respectable sect, there was a huge difference between the Golden Cauldron Sect and Thunder Sound Sect.
Xiang Yi was the Enforcement Elder of the Golden Cauldron Sect. Why would he be bothered by the insignificant Fire Fairy?
Fire Fairy’s eyes turned icy cold. She took a glance at Jian Wushuang and remarked solemnly, “Wushuang, I’m asking you for the last time. Are you willing to come to Thunder Sound Sect with me?”
She had made up her mind. Once Jian Wushuang agreed, she would protect Jian Wushuang at all costs.
However, if Jian Wushuang refused, she wouldn’t want to be involved in this incident.
“I’m sorry. I’m not interested in the Thunder Sound Sect for now.” Jian Wushuang shook his head without even hesitating.
“Alright then. You’re on your own for now.” Fire Fairy was enraged and no longer cared about Jian Wushuang’s life and death. She stepped aside.
“I’m glad you know what’s the best thing to do.” Xiang Yi looked mockingly at Fire Fairy before turning to Jian Wushuang. “Brat, speak now! How do you want to die?”
“Hehe! You think you can kill me?” Jian Wushuang scoffed. “Spare me the nonsense. If you want to kill me, just come for me. A total of six Divine Demon Realm experts have come from your Golden Cauldron Sect. Together with the two Divine Demon Realm experts from Xiang Family, you guys can come at the same time.”
“At the same time?”
Those who heard him were shocked.
Among the eight Chaotic Divine Demons, there were 2 Second Grade Divine Demons, 2 elite Third Grade Divine Demons and the remaining 4 weren’t weak at all. Jian Wushuang wanted to take them all at the same time?
Was he really that confident?
“Tsk! You aren’t qualified for us to team up against you. I alone am enough to kill you.” Xiang Yi snorted and charged towards Jian Wushuang.
As for those around him, none of them moved.
Regardless of if they were from the Xiang Family or Golden Cauldron Sect, they had absolute confidence in Xiang Yi. In their eyes, Xiang Yi was more than enough to kill Jian Wushuang.
It was especially so for those from the Golden Cauldron Sect. They could all see that Jian Wushuang was just at the Chaotic Realm.
Although they had heard of Jian Wushuang’s strength from Xiang Zong personally, they were skeptical. After all, they had not witnessed it with their own eyes.
In the air, Xiang Yi moved like a phantom. In an instant, he arrived before Jian Wushuang. At the same time, he clenched his fist and an explosive power gathered in his hand. This power had the attributes of lightning.
All of a sudden, the fist went straight for Jian Wushuang.
Terrifying strength exploded in that instant.
Completely overwhelming strength!
A Second Grade Divine Demon wasn’t just better than a Third Grade Divine Demon in the aspect of Rules of Order. In terms of divine power, a Second Grade Divine Demon’s divine power was purer and denser.
In terms of pure strength, a Second Grade Divine Demon would have an absolute advantage.
“I wonder how much stronger a Second Grade Divine Demon is compared to a Third Grade Divine Demon?” Jian Wushuang was curious as he swung his fist. Gathering pure divine power in his palm, he lunged ahead violently and his strength exploded violently.
Two huge fists collided like two huge meteorites.
Peng!
Following a loud boom, ripples could be vaguely seen in the atmosphere. At the same time, everyone could hear the strong compression of energy.
Immediately after, Jian Wushuang flew back like a cannonball.
From the door of the Lin Mansion, he barely stopped even after reaching the center of the Lin Mansion.
After stabilizing himself, Jian Wushuang took a glance at his right hand. He could feel pulses of pain in his arm and joints.
As for Xiang Yi, he looked perfectly fine.
“A Second Grade Divine Demon is indeed something. In terms of intensity of strength, he’s way stronger than a Third Grade Divine Demon,” Jian Wushuang mumbled to himself.
…
Chapter 2350: Hong Jun Divine Rod
“A meagre Early Stage Chaotic Realm can take a punch from me and survive!? Your talents are indeed incredible. However, the shame is you did something you shouldn’t have done and offended someone you couldn’t afford to. Now die!” Killing intent raged in Xiang Yi’s eyes. The moment he finished his words, a dull gold rod surfaced before him.
The dull gold rod was long and thin with a mysterious insignia imprinted on its body.
“This is…?” Jian Wushuang was surprised.
He knew about the dull gold rod!
He had even used it personally before, although it was just an imitation.
Weng!
The dull gold rod moved over a long distance and appeared before Jian Wushuang in a blink of an eye under the control of Xiang Yi’s soul power.
Immediately after, the dull gold rod was like a majestic and huge mountain that came smashing down on Jian Wushuang ferociously.
The power encompassed within the rod was sufficient to throw an ordinary Third Grade Divine Demon into despair.
Jian Wushuang was also surprised but still swung out the Blood Mountain Sword in his hand at the first moment.
A unique sword intention swept across and the Mixed Elements Spirit was used.
Dang!
That dull gold rod clashed violently onto the Blood Mountain Sword, sending terrifying force through the tremors of the Blood Mountain Sword.
Jian Wushuang staggered back and sank to the ground.
However, Xiang Yi didn’t just stop there. That dull gold rod grew rapidly before smashing down on Jian Wushuang relentlessly.
Strike after strike, he wasn’t going to allow Jian Wushuang to catch his breath.
Jian Wushuang could only use his sword technique to withstand the relentless attack of the dull gold rod. However, there was a clear difference in strength since the beginning and the dull gold rod had an emphasis on absolute strength. Under these conditions, Jian Wushuang had a hard time withstanding the attacks.
Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang!
The numerous violent clashes threw Jian Wushuang into a building within Lin Mansion, destroying everything in the process.
However, Xiang Yi didn’t just stop there.
“Die! Die!!” Xiang Yi’s eyes had turned blood red. Brutality and craziness were gleaming in his eyes and he continued smashing down on Jian Wushuang with his dull gold rod.
Terrifying explosions erupted and everyone could sense the immense power encompassed within the dull gold rod.
“Shuang!”
“Nephew Wushuang!”
Zhuo Yunfeng and Lin Tiefeng were flabbergasted. There was nothing they could do. The duo from the Xiang Family and the remaining experts from the Golden Cauldron Sect had intercepted them a long time ago. There was no way Zhuo Yunfeng and Lin Tiefeng could find an opportunity to interrupt.
“Fire Fairy, is there something you can do?” asked Lin Tiefeng.
At this juncture, they could only hope the Thunder Sound Sect could help Jian Wushuang.
“Lin Family Head, you should know about the circumstances of our Thunder Sound Sect. We extended our invitation multiple times but Jian Wushuang chose to refuse each time. There’s no reason for the Thunder Sound Sect to step in. Moreover, even if our Thunder Sound Sect were to step in at this juncture, it would be too late. The Golden Cauldron Sect has sent two Second Grade Divine Demons here. There’s nothing I can do,” Fire Fairy answered honestly.
She really wanted to bring the absolute talent, Jian Wushuang, back to Thunder Sound Sect. If Jian Wushuang had accepted the invitation at the beginning, she would have tried her best to come up with something. It was a shame that Jian Wushuang had chosen to reject her offer.
Now that Jian Wushuang was in a difficult situation and Xiang Yi clearly wouldn’t stop, she couldn’t save Jian Wushuang even if he agreed to join Thunder Sound Sect. As such, the only feeling she had for him was pity.
“An unprecedented talent is going to be wasted here.” Fire Fairy sighed emotionally. “You can’t really blame me for it. He’s just too conceited. If he had chosen to join a sect earlier, he wouldn’t be in this predicament.”
At this moment, the relentless attacks from the dull gold rod finally came to a halt.
Xiang Yi stood upright and had the dull gold rod beside him. He was looking down to the ground in front of him.
At that place, the initial building, including the other structures around it, had been reduced to powder under his crushing divine power. The surface of the ground had been destroyed and replaced by a large pothole. The surface of the pothole wasn’t smooth, clearly suggesting it wasn’t caused by a single impact but continuous domineering strength.
Everyone focused on the pothole.
Is Jian Wushuang dead?
Many people had this thought in mind.
Obviously, many were in shock.
“He’s too strong. Is this the strength of a Second Grade Divine Demon?”
“A Second Grade Divine Demon is way stronger than a Third Grade Divine Demon!”
“Jian Wushuang could kill Third Grade Divine Demon and would be considered really strong. However, the difference between a Second Grade Divine Demon and him is still too huge.”
Many people were whispering and feeling a little despondent.
They were sad to see a true demon-like genius meet his end here.
Just as almost everyone was certain that Jian Wushuang had fallen under the barrage of rod attacks…
Rumble~~~
Beneath the pothole, debris scattered fiercely and a figure rose from the bottom gradually.
Soon, he was standing before Xiang Yi again.
“How can this be possible?”
Staring at Jian Wushuang, Xiang Yi was in disbelief.
To take revenge for his sister, he was seething with killing intent. Previously, he had gone all-out and had maximized the power in each relentless attack.
Under such terrifying attacks, even if he managed to survive, Jian Wushuang should at least be severely injured.
However, the current Jian Wushuang looked a little wretched with some blood at the edge of his mouth, but his aura had not seemed to weaken at all.
Clearly, he had not sustained considerable injuries during the relentless barrage of attacks.
“This… This…”
The surrounding crowd was equally astounded.
In their eyes, even a Third Grade Divine Demon’s self defence mechanism would have given way under that barrage of attacks. However, Jian Wushuang was just an Early Stage Chaotic Realm.
Not only had he survived, he had only sustained light injuries?
What they didn’t know was that although Xiang Yi’s attacks were strong, the true impact of them that reached Jian Wushuang was limited.
Together with Jian Wushuang’s self defence mechanism, his Holy Body was way above the level of an ordinary Third Grade Divine Demon even without wearing armor.
How could the Holy Body of a Perfect Chaotic Lifeform be so easily damaged after mastering the first scroll of the Immemorial Celestial Body?
“If I’m not mistaken, you are using the Hong Jun Divine Rod.” Jian Wushuang was staring at Xiang Yi, or more accurately, the dull gold rod before him.
The Hong Jun Divine Rod was a weapon that shared the same fame as the Hong Jun Golden Swords. They could be manipulated with soul power.
In his previous life, Jian Wushuang had encountered Long Qi in the Eighth Lair. From Long Qi, he had obtained an imitation of Hong Jun Golden Swords.
At that time, in order for him to master the Hong Jun Golden Swords, Long Qi had given him the imitation Hong Jun Golden Swords to practice with.
Chapter 2351: Restraint
The Hong Jun Divine Rod emphasized power. It was domineering and extremely powerful.
As for Hong Jun Golden Swords, they focused on speed. When combined with Spacetime Rules of Order, their movements would be unpredictable and extremely creepy.
They were similarly made weapons but their natures were completely different.
In his previous life, Jian Wushuang had killed many experts by manipulating the Hong Jun Golden Swords.
And now, the first Second Grade Divine Demon that he had encountered was able to use the Hong Jun Divine Rod.
“Looks like I have underestimated you. It doesn’t matter though. You are still going to die!”
“Die!”
Xiang Yi’s voice was icy cold and the dullish-gold long rod before him shot out once again.
“When I got reincarnated, I lost all my treasures, including the Hong Jun Golden Swords. Otherwise, I could try using them against the Hong Jun Divine Rod,” Jian Wushuang mumbled to himself. Seeing the dullish-gold long rod striking towards him once again, he was fearless.
Boom!!
The imposing figure of the rod was like the tail of a serpent dragon that swept onto Jian Wushuang’s body directly. However, it didn’t hit anything material.
Clearly, this was just an illusion that Jian Wushuang had left behind after grasping the Spacetime Rules of Order.
As for the real Jian Wushuang, he had moved away like a phantom.
Weng~~~
Just like a phantom, Jian Wushuang covered a long distance and appeared before Xiang Yi suddenly.
“His speed…” Xiang Yi was astounded and wanted to pull back the Hong Jun Divine Rod to defend himself.
“Will you make it on time?” Jian Wushuang scoffed, thrusting his Blood Mountain Sword forward.
Although the Hong Jun Divine Rod was extremely powerful, it was ordinary in terms of speed and agility. These were its weaknesses.
Jian Wushuang had once practiced with an imitation of a Hong Jun Divine Rod. Therefore, he knew about these weaknesses.
When manipulating the Hong Jun Divine Rod, Xiang Yi would never reach the level of agility that Jian Wushuang had had with the Hong Jun Golden Swords.
Considering these circumstances and the fact that Jian Wushuang had grasped the Spacetime Rules of Order, his advantage in speed and agility was more prominent.
Weng!
The chilling sword light pierced towards Xiang Yi’s throat, and Xiang Yi clearly couldn’t pull back his Hong Jun Divine Rod in time to block the attack.
However, at this very moment, Xiang Yi shouted and flexed. Immediately after, a blurry wall of energy coalesced before him.
This wall was shockingly made up of his soul power.
The Hong Jun Divine Rod had to be used with one’s soul power and one’s understanding of Rod Principle to release the greatest might.
Since Xiang Yi could manipulate the Hong Jun Divine Rod to attack, he naturally specialized in the aspect of soul attack.
Now, his soul power had quickly gathered to form a headless giant carrying a toothed mace. As it shouted, it smashed towards Jian Wushuang furiously.
Following a loud crash, Jian Wushuang’s sword strike was neutralized. At the same time, an incredible soul power swept towards Jian Wushuang’s soul.
However, Jian Wushuang’s consciousness sea was guarded by a black Exquisite Pagoda. The soul power couldn’t shake the Exquisite Pagoda by the slightest.
“A meagre Chaotic Realm is so tough in the aspect of the soul as well?” Xiang Yi furrowed his brows and pointed his finger at Jian Wushuang. “Go!”
The returning Hong Jun Divine Rod smashed towards Jian Wushuang once again.
At the same time, the headless giant that had been formed from soul power also charged towards Jian Wushuang with the toothed mace.
As for Xiang Yi, he kept his eyes on Jian Wushuang. He was ready to release a soul attack at any moment to exert pressure on Jian Wushuang.
However, Jian Wushuang was simply too fast!
The Hong Jun Divine Rod couldn’t even catch the corners of Jian Wushuang’s clothes.
As for the headless giant, Jian Wushuang could easily make his way around it as well.
Jian Wushuang could choose to appear before Xiang Yi and engage in close combat with him.
If Jian Wushuang had not successfully created the Exquisite Pagoda, Xiang Yi’s soul attack might still have been a threat to Jian Wushuang. As for now, he couldn’t shake the Exquisite Pagoda even a little if his soul attack was compelling.
In other words, Xiang Yi’s three greatest tricks… The Hong Jun Divine Rod, the headless giant formed from soul power, and his soul attacks were completely ineffective against Jian Wushuang.
As for Jian Wushuang, he was a huge threat to Xiang Yi with his incredible sword technique.
Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!
Several rays of sword light were launched constantly.
Jian Wushuang was now totally engaged in battle. Although Xiang Yi was a Second Grade Divine Demon, he wasn’t well-versed in close combat fighting skills. All of a sudden, he was being pushed back by Jian Wushuang. He gave his all to continue driving the Hong Jun Divine Rod and releasing soul attacks.
However, they weren’t doing anything to Jian Wushuang at all.
This was, in fact, the weakness of an expert specializing in soul attack.
For an ordinary expert that specialized in the soul, they could only choose to flee if their soul attack couldn’t threaten the other party. Xiang Yi was in fact really strong. His soul could be used to attack or defend and could be considered to be close to perfection. Even if he was facing a Second Grade Divine Demon, he could exert considerable pressure with the might of the Hong Jun Divine Rod and the combination of the headless giant and soul attacks.
For most ordinary Second Grade Divine Demons, they could only flee in defeat.
However, he happened to be fighting Jian Wushuang.
Jian Wushuang was too fast and could completely ignore the Hong Jun Golden Rod and the headless giant.
He also had a strong soul defense and wasn’t afraid of Xiang Yi’s soul attack at all.
More importantly, Jian Wushuang’s close combat ability and Sword Principle were simply too frightening.
As a Second Grade Divine Demon, Xiang Yi had some level of skill in close combat fighting. Moreover, the intensity of his power was a lot greater than Jian Wushuang. Logically speaking, he should have the upper hand.
However, the reality indicated otherwise. Jian Wushuang was almost completely overwhelming him in close combat fighting.
“How can this be?”
“I’m completely suppressed by Jian Wushuang?”
“My soul attack can’t do anything to him?”
Xiang Yi’s expression darkened.
Previously, he had had no regard for Jian Wushuang at all. Even though Jian Wushuang had killed two Chaotic Divine Demons, they had only been Third Grade Divine Demons and there was a huge difference.
Now that he was fighting Jian Wushuang personally, he found Jian Wushuang to still be miles from him.
Yet, Jian Wushuang was completely countering him!
His attacks were rendered useless before Jian Wushuang.
While he was completely overwhelmed by Jian Wushuang’s close combat abilities:
Around the battlefield, the numerous experts from Lin Mansion were completely dumbstruck.
“A Second Grade Divine Demon is getting suppressed?”
“What is this? Wasn’t he enjoying a huge advantage previously?”
“Why do I feel that Xiang Yi has become a lot weaker suddenly?”
Most of the experts in Lin Mansion were weak and couldn’t understand the reason.
However, a few Divine Demon Realm experts were aware. It wasn’t that Xiang Yi had become weaker. Instead, Jian Wushuang was completely countering him, rendering Xiang Yi’s various attacks completely useless.
Chapter 2352: Increase In Cultivation Realm
In the air above Lin Mansion, a few Chaotic Divine Demons from Golden Cauldron Sect were standing in a row.
At this moment, they weren’t looking great.
“Although junior brother Xiang Yi’s soul attack is extremely powerful and could be used for both attacking and defending, the Rules of Order he has grasped is inclined towards the steady and heavy Earth Rules of Order. He shouldn’t have any issue in attacking or defending. However, he is still lacking in speed and agility. If he encounters someone who specializes in speed and has a great soul defence, he might very well lose in battle.”
“Just like we are seeing, Jian Wushuang clearly hasn’t reached the level of a Second Grade Divine Demon. Yet, he is still able to suppress junior brother Xiang Yi,” said the bald man carrying a sabre.
“Senior brother Qian Yuan, we have to think of a solution soon. If we let this carry on, senior brother Xiang Yi will be defeated. If a Second Grade Divine Demon loses to an Early Stage Chaotic Realm, it will be a great humiliation. Moreover, this might be a blow to senior brother Xiang Yi’s mentality and affect his future growth,” a Golden Cauldron Sect expert added.
“I know.” That bald man nodded and his eyes turned chillingly cold. “Forget it. I’ll kill Jian Wushuang personally.”
“Senior brother Qian Yuan?” the other experts from Golden Cauldron Sect looked over.
However, Qian Yuan had already bolted off towards the battlefield before him.
In the middle of the battlefield, Jian Wushuang was in a heated battle with Xiang Yi. Jian Wushuang was casually executing his sword technique. Even so, he was forcing Xiang Yi back constantly.
“I thought the Second Grade Divine Demon, Xiang Yi, could force me to use some of my hidden tricks. It seems like I overestimated him.” Jian Wushuang shook his head and smiled.
As for Xiang Yi, his face had turned red. He struggled to counterattack and had tried several times. Yet, it was completely pointless.
All of a sudden…
Boom!!!
A terrifying aura descended violently.
This aura was also at the level of a Second Grade Divine Demon but slightly stronger than Xiang Yi’s.
Jian Wushuang instantly understood that the other Second Grade Divine Demon from the Golden Cauldron Sect that came with Xiang Yi had stepped in.
His vast aura had Jian Wushuang completely surrounded. Immediately after, the bald man appeared behind Jian Wushuang and swung his sabre at him.
His sabre was coated in blazing flames.
As the sabre swung, the world was swallowed in flames.
More importantly, he released seven attacks in a single instant.
The seven attacks were released almost at the same time and each strike was extremely domineering.
Sensing the threat behind him, Jian Wushuang turned around immediately. A unique sword intention was released and his body seemed morph into a huge vortex capable of devouring heaven and earth.
Sword Principle Xuan Luo – Mixed Elements Spirit!
Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang!
Seven intense clashes reverberated across the atmosphere. After each clash, Jian Wushuang could feel his arm going a little more numb.
After seven strikes, Jian Wushuang was sent flying.
“This strength is even greater than Xiang Yi! Xiang Yi specialized in soul attacks and manipulating the Hong Jun Divine Rod from a distance to launch his attack. However, this bald man probably specializes in close combat. His sabre skills are like blazing flames and are truly incredible.” Jian Wushuang looked over once he had stabilized himself.
“Senior brother Qian Yuan.” Xiang Yi appeared beside Qian Yuan and greeted him.
“Junior brother Xiang Yi, let’s team up and kill him.” Qian Yuan got straight to the point.
“Team up?” Xiang Yi furrowed his brows.
He would rather kill Jian Wushuang personally to avenge his sister.
However, after the previous battle, he could tell he couldn’t kill Jian Wushuang in a solo battle. In fact, Jian Wushuang could even defeat him.
If that were the case….
“Alright!” Xiang Yi nodded solemnly.
The surrounding crowd from Lin Family were flabbergasted to witness it.
“Scumbags! Two Second Grade Divine Demon teaming up against an Early Stage Chaotic Realm! Since when did the people from Golden Cauldron Sect become so shameless?” Lin Tiefeng berated.
“Shuang!” Zhuo Yunfeng stared deadly at Jian Wushuang. He could tell the current Jian Wushuang wasn’t feeling any fear or trepidation. Instead, he was still as calm and composed as ever.
If this had happened in the past, he would definitely have been extremely anxious even if Jian Wushuang displayed the same composure.
However…
“If Shuang is really what Xinqin guessed and is reincarnated from a supreme expert, the current crisis before him really won’t amount to anything.”
“Let’s hope this is the case!!” Zhuo Yunfeng could only pray in his heart.
Even Lin Tiefeng and other Divine Demon Realm experts couldn’t interfere in the battle. He was just a Half Step Divine Demon and the one facing the danger was his son. There was nothing he could do to help.
Nonetheless, Zhuo Yunfeng had got it right.
The current Jian Wushuang was fearless.
So what if there were two Second Grade Divine Demons?
“This will make things a little more interesting.” Jian Wushuang chuckled and wiggled his index finger to taunt Qian Yuan and Xiang Yi. “Both of you! Show me what you’ve got!”
“Preposterous!” Xiang Yi was infuriated.
“Brat, you are too brazen!” Qian Yuan was also a little enraged. He glanced at Xiang Yi, who was next to him, and said, “Junior brother Xiang Yi, let’s go with the coordination that we used in that perilous land previously.”
“Alright,” Xiang Yi nodded his head.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Qian Yuan and Xiang Yi moved at the same time.
Qian Yuan charged towards Jian Wushuang while Xiang Yi retreated further back.
However, as he retreated, he controlled his Hong Jun Divine Rod to strike Jian Wushuang with compelling might.
“One close and one far. One is specialized in close combat fighting while the other controls the Hong Jun Divine Rod from a distance while using a soul attack to complement each other?”
“With two Second Grade Divine Demon teaming up and cooperating, it seems like I will have to use some of my tricks!”
In the next instant, Star Power gushed out from Jian Wushuang’s body.
His Star Power had long fused into his divine power and bloodline. Now that he was triggering them, his divine power was morphing instantly.
What others could sense was that the aura around Jian Wushuang had become visibly stronger.
Previously, he had been at the level of an Early Stage Chaotic Realm or, at the very most, the Peak Early Stage Chaotic Realm. Now, his aura was rising rapidly to the Middle Stage Chaotic Realm. From that point, he grew a little stronger before stopping.
“From Early Stage Chaotic Realm to Middle Stage Chaotic Realm. So the first scroll of the Secret Skill of Seven Star can raise half a cultivation realm? This feels pretty good!”
Jian Wushuang clenched his fist and revealed a sinister smile.
Chapter 2353: One Close, One Far
The Secret Skill of Seven Star could increase one’s cultivation realm.
Although Jian Wushuang had only mastered the first scroll, it allowed anyone below the Undying Saint to raise their cultivation realm by half a level.
One shouldn’t underestimate this half a level as it was extremely important to a cultivator.
For example, Jian Wushuang was an Early Stage Chaotic Realm initially. After the increment, he would be at the Middle Stage Chaotic Realm.
This advancement was a material improvement to Jian Wushuang’s strength.
At the very least, he was a lot stronger in the aspects of power and strength.
“Previously, even with the Immemorial Celestial Body, I was still far from an ordinary Third Grade Divine Demon in terms of power and strength. However, the current me won’t be any weaker than an ordinary Third Grade Divine Demon now that I’ve reached Middle Stage Chaotic Realm. In fact, I’ll be considered extremely strong among Third Grade Divine Demons.” Jian Wushuang smiled.
Regardless of his understanding in Sword Principle, sword technique, or grasp over Rules of Order, he was way stronger than a Second Grade Divine Demon.
However, his only weakness was the stark difference in his power and strength.
Now, with the help of Secret Skill of Seven Star, his cultivation realm had been raised and his power and strength were extensively increased. Although he was still slightly inferior to a Second Grade Divine Demon, the difference was no longer that huge.
“Let me see how strong a Second Grade Divine Demon really is!”
Jian Wushuang laughed out loud and his body started flickering. He darted forward and charged towards Qian Yuan.
Qian Yuan had been locked onto Jian Wushuang all along.
When Jian Wushuang’s aura strengthened, he noticed it as well.
“His aura strengthened? And by a huge amount to the Middle Stage Chaotic Realm? This isn’t a breakthrough. It’s probably due to him casting some unique secret skills.” Qian Yuan furrowed his brows.
A secret skill that could temporarily increase his cultivation realm?
This was uncommon in the entire Wusha Barren Region, let alone Golden Cauldron Sect.
“This brat must be harboring some huge secrets.” Qian Yuan confirmed his thoughts.
In the blink of an eye, Jian Wushuang clashed with Qian Yuan.
Qian Yuan held his sabre with both hands and his sabre skills were scorching like fireballs.
Once he swung his sabre, the terrifying might was enough to plunge a Third Grade Divine Demon in despair.
However, Jian Wushuang was fearless. When Qian Yuan swung his sabre, he did the same with his Blood Mountain Sword.
The moment he did, a strong gust of wind swept across.
Sword Principle Xuan Luo – Blast Rainstorm!
“Die now!” Qian Yuan responded with a scoff.
He was a Second Grade Divine Demon and specialized in close combat fighting.
Although Jian Wushuang had an extremely high understanding of Spacetime Rules of Order and was oddly quick, he was completely inferior in terms of strength and power.
Now, Jian Wushuang chose not to dodge Qian Yuan’s domineering strike and relied on his superior speed to pester Qian Yun. Instead, he foolishly tried to clash directly with his sword technique. If this wasn’t courting his own death, what was it?
However, the moment both of them clashed…
“What?” Qian Yuan was shocked.
He could feel a power that was not inferior to his encompassed within Jian Wushuang’s sword.
Indeed, the power of the strike wasn’t any weaker than his.
Perhaps he was not a match in the aspect of basic strength. However, Jian Wushuang’s technique included his understanding of Rules of Order, which greatly enhanced the power of his sword techniques. Now, he could face Qian Yuan directly.
“There’s nothing impressive about the strength and power of a Second Grade Divine Demon after all!” Jian Wushuang grinned.
Tsk! Qian Yuan snorted and swung out his sabre three consecutive times.
Three scorching-hot sabre lights slashed out instantly.
“Ludicrous!” Jian Wushuang sneered and swung out three sword lights as well.
They were ordinary strikes. However, with his understanding of Sword Principle and application of Rules of Order, their might was enhanced exponentially.
Dang! Dang! Dang!
Three consecutive clashes pushed Jian Wushuang and Qian Yuan several steps back.
However, before Jian Wushuang could stabilize himself, a powerful soul attack swept through his mind.
This soul attack had probably been accumulated by Xiang Yi for some time before being released in one go. As a result, it had some effects on the Exquisite Pagoda within Jian Wushuang’s consciousness sea. The Exquisite Pagoda shook a little but quickly recovered.
Jian Wushuang’s consciousness wasn’t affected greatly.
Weng!
A giant dullish-gold rod descended from the sky with overwhelming momentum, seemingly aiming to decimate Jian Wushuang.
Jian Wushuang’s figure flickered and the dullish-gold rod pierced through his body without even touching the edges of his clothes.
“He is much faster than before.” Xiang Yi frowned.
He didn’t realize that the increment in the cultivation realm wasn’t just limited to strength and power. Jian Wushuang’s speed had changed accordingly as well.
“Jian Wushuang, take this strike from me.”
A deafening scream erupted. Unknowingly, Qian Yuan had raised the sabre in his hand.
His sabre had turned entirely red and its surroundings seemed to be shrouded in a layer of scorching hot flames.
The aura around him bubbled and even his hair was blown up as the fire raged.
“Blood-Fire Style!”
Boom!
Terrifying sabre light descended all of a sudden.
That sabre light was blood red and opened up a giant river of blades instantly.
As the river of blades swept across in a frenzy, the area it crossed was set ablaze.
A giant sea of flames was formed instantly.
Within the sea of flames, a flaming sabre that spanned over a thousand feet slashed furiously towards Jian Wushuang.
“The power in this strike is pretty impressive!”
Staring at the approaching flaming sabre, Jian Wushuang became a little more serious.
Immediately after, he thrust his sword forward.
This strike looked ordinary and seemed devoid of all strength. However, when the edge of the sword pierced into the air, Reincarnation Power started spreading.
Samsara!
Weng!
When the edge of the sword clashed with the flaming sabre, none of the power spread to the surrounding area.
At the moment of contact, the flames on the flaming sabre began dissipating at an unbelievable speed.
In just moments, the flaming sabre was reduced to the most foundational divine power and Sabre Essence.
The strongest strike from Qian Yuan had been easily neutralized.
As for Jian Wushuang’s strike that carried the force of Samsara, it continued lunging forward.
Pfft!
The edge of the sword landed on Qian Yuan’s holy body. Qian Yuan’s self-defence mechanism was pretty impressive. Furthermore, the power behind the sword light had declined extensively after obliterating the flaming sabre.
This strike only just pierced Qian Yuan’s body and didn’t do much damage to Qian Yuan.
However, Qian Yuan was shocked.
“How can this be?”
“His strike…”
Qian Yuan couldn’t understand what had happened in the previous strike.
How had Jian Wushuang obliterated his flaming sabre with a single strike?
…
Chapter 2354: Punisher God
Qian Yuan didn’t know the Samsara that Jian Wushuang had cast encompassed a unique reincarnation and cycle.
It could convert all matter to its primitive state.
He had created this move in his previous life. Now, with extensive advancement in the Reincarnation Rules of Order, this move had also grown exponentially more frightening.
“I still couldn’t take him down when I teamed up with junior brother Xiang Yi? And I even got injured by him?” Qian Yuan’s expression darkened. “Everyone, kill him together!”
“Together?”
Hearing this, the surrounding Lin Mansion experts couldn’t believe their ears.
Even the four Divine Demon Realm experts from Golden Cauldron Sect were shocked for a moment. However, they recovered quickly and reacted.
“Together!”
Four of them exchanged glances before charging towards Jian Wushuang while ignoring the disdainful gazes that others were throwing at them.
The six men that came from Golden Cauldron Sect were in fact in the same team and had just completed a mission in a perilous land.
Although there were only two Second Grade Divine Demons among the six of them, the other four weren’t weak either. At the very least, the other four could be considered experts among Third Grade Divine Demons. Two of them had even reached the pinnacle of the Third Grade Divine Demons. Now that four of them had struck together, the battle strength they could release could even bring huge threat to a Second Grade Divine Demon!
“Six Chaotic Divine Demons are teaming up against a teenager that isn’t even twenty years old? Golden Cauldron Sect, do you no longer care how others see you guys?” Lin Tiefeng berated.
“How would others see us? Tsk!” Xiang Zong replied with a scoff. “No matter where you go in this world, it’s always the strongest who rule. Who cares about how others look at you?”
Lin Tiefeng was speechless.
Although the experts of the Golden Cauldron Sect had gotten out of the way, Xiang Zong and the burly old man from the Xiang Family were still standing there.
Lin Tiefeng and the rest couldn’t have helped even if they wanted to.
However, Jian Wushuang didn’t seem flustered despite seeing another four Divine Demon Realm experts joining in.
“As I said earlier, you guy should have come for me at the same time since the beginning. If you did, it wouldn’t be as troublesome as now!” Jian Wushuang sneered.
As he spoke, a boundless divine power started sweeping through his body.
This divine power was golden in color. As they gathered in huge amounts, a God Statue shadow of over a thousand feet was formed in the blink of an eye.
The God Statue shadow that appeared behind Jian Wushuang was blurry but extremely majestic.
“One of the Five Great Secret Skills of the Seven Star Black Sect, Punisher God. I have only mastered the first tier and can now form a God Statue shadow of a thousand feet. I wonder how the thousand feet tall God Statue shadow will enhance my strength?”
Carrying a little anticipation, Jian Wushuang struck.
Weng!
His figure flickered with the application of Spacetime Rules of Order, making him appear extremely creepy.
Before him, Qian Yuan manipulated his sabre constantly. Sabre light with scorching flames slashed down at Jian Wushuang relentlessly. From afar, Xiang Yi also propelled the Hong Jun Divine Rod and smashed frenziedly toward Jian Wushuang. However, Jian Wushuang just needed a slight dodge to avoid all these attacks.
“His instantaneous speed seems to have gotten even quicker?” Qian Yuan was astounded.
When Jian Wushuang successfully avoided the attacks from the two of them, he rushed towards the approaching quartet of Divine Demon Realm experts immediately. In the blink of an eye, he got right in front of the four Divine Demon Realm experts.
“Be careful!” Qian Yuan shouted to remind the four Divine Demon Realm experts.
The four Divine Demons from the Golden Cauldron Sect had also witnessed the strength displayed by Jian Wushuang previously. Naturally, they wouldn’t dare to be careless.
However, they had absolute confidence in themselves.
All four of them would be considered extremely strong amongst Third Grade Divine Demons. Moreover, they were familiar with one another and cooperated well. When the four of them teamed up, even an ordinary Second Grade Divine Demon would avoid them. They truly weren’t afraid of Jian Wushuang.
“Kill him!”
“Brat, die!”
“You are too full of yourself!”
Four Divine Demon Realm experts struck one after another.
One waved his long whip that coiled around Jian Wushuang like a huge python.
One thrust out a spear ferociously, wanting to pierce Jian Wushuang’s entire body.
One threw out a palm strike. With vast divine power gathering in his palm, this strike could shock heaven and earth.
The last person was using a dagger. His movements were elusive and he was clearly looking for an opportunity to deal a fatal blow to Jian Wushuang.
Seeing this, Jian Wushuang smiled faintly.
He bolted ahead and left two spacetime shadows behind.
The attacks from the four Divine Demon Realm experts descended but went through the two spacetime shadows without hitting Jian Wushuang, or even the edge of his clothes, at all.
At this very moment…
Weng!
A brilliant sword light illuminated the area.
That brilliant sword light was mesmerizing and intoxicating.
The moment it appeared, even the space was affected as ripples reverberated through it.
The surrounding space-time seemed to have come to a halt as well.
Spacetime Sword Principle, Snow Cleave!
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
That brilliant sword light zoomed past and the four Divine Demon Realm experts from the Golden Cauldron Sect were shocked.
The eyes of two of them dimmed as they fell to the ground helplessly.
Although the other two could barely remain standing in the air, they spewed a mouthful of blood and their expressions paled drastically.
“Impossible!” Behind Jian Wushuang, the approaching Qian Yuan and Xiang Yi were flabbergasted.
“How could he be so strong?”
Those from the Lin Mansion were equally dumbfounded.
In a single strike, he had killed two and severely injured another two Divine Demon Realm experts.
What was this power?
What kind of strength did he possess?
“This is indeed worthy of being one of the Five Great Secret Skills of the Seven Star Black Sect. Although I have only mastered the first tier and can only form a God Statue shadow of a thousand feet, the enhancement to my strength is so massive. Based on my estimation, both the intensity of my power, speed and many other aspects have doubled!”
Jian Wushuang’s eyes lit up.
Twice as strong as before!
For Divine Demon Realm experts, a 10% to 20% increase in strength would already be considered outrageous.
Having a 100% increase would have drastic changes to Jian Wushuang’s strength.
“This is just the first tier. Once I have mastered the third tier and form a God Statue shadow of a hundred thousand feet, I can also use various other attacking means of Punisher God like Punisher’s Hell and Punisher God Annihilation. At that time, my battle strength will be even greater!!” Jian Wushuang was looking forward to it.
What he didn’t know was that it was impossible for him to form a one hundred thousand feet tall God Statue shadow within a short period.
After getting a sense of his own strength, Jian Wushuang looked towards the two Golden Cauldron Sect’s experts that were severely injured.
“Die!”
Killing intent gleamed in the eyes of Jian Wushuang as he darted forward.
“Retreat! Retreat!!” The two Divine Demon Realm experts from the Golden Cauldron Sect shouted out in horror.
Chapter 2355: Clean Sweep
They had been intimidated by the strength Jian Wushuang had displayed.
Four of them had teamed up previously. However, in a single strike, Jian Wushuang had killed two of them while also severely injuring the remaining two.
Under these circumstances, clashing with Jian Wushuang again would be no different from courting death.
The two Divine Demon Realm experts from the Golden Cauldron Sect retreated in a frenzy to open up distance from Jian Wushuang.
“Jian Wushuang, stop!” Qian Yuan and Xiang Yi, who were behind Jian Wushuang, berated him.
However, Jian Wushuang wasn’t going to entertain them.
His speed was much faster than that of the two Divine Demons that were trying to escape.
Whoosh!
Jian Wushuang appeared before a Golden Cauldron Sect’s expert. He swung out his sword casually and it was still Snow Cleave.
“No!!” After a tragic cry, the expert from the Golden Cauldron Sect soon left the world and became a corpse.
As for the other, he managed to escape in time and met up with Qian Yuan and Xiang Yi.
The sky above Lin Mansion turned completely silent.
Deadly silent.
Numerous shocked people were staring at the young man holding a long sword with a God Statue shadow behind him that was a thousand feet tall.
Qian Yuan, Xiang Yi, and the only one left from the Divine Demon Realm quartet from Golden Cauldron Sect, were looking extremely wretched.
They had formed the team to complete the mission issued by their sect at the perilous land. Through the impeccable coordination, they had survived several hidden dangers lurking in the perilous land. In the end, theyhad even completed the mission issued by their sect.
And now, they had only come to take a look because something had happened to Xiang Yi’s family.
Who would have expected that the three of them would fall to an Early Stage Chaotic Realm after they survived in that perilous land?
Moreover, the other party still wasn’t dead?
In other words, the line-up of two Second Grade Divine Demons and four Third Grade Divine Demons had been swept by a Chaotic Realm!!
Jian Wushuang smiled and looked at the three surviving people. “What a shame! I let one get away.” Jian Wushuang was feeling a little regretful.
With his current strength, killing Third Grade Divine Demon would only really be easy once he cast Secret Skill of Seven Star and Punisher God.
However, it might still not be possible to kill a Second Grade Divine Demon.
Therefore, his objective from the beginning was not to kill Qian Yuan or Xiang Yi. Instead, his targets were the four Third Grade Divine Demons.
He killed three of them consecutively. Although Qian Yuan and Xiang Yi were still around, they could no longer threaten him.
“Didn’t you guys say you were going to kill me? Let’s continue!” Jian Wushuang said mockingly.
“Jian Wushuang, we admit that we underestimated you!” Xiang Yi stared daggers at Jian Wushuang. “However, don’t get too cocky. Do you think our Golden Cauldron Sect will let you off after you killed three Divine Demon Realm experts from our Golden Cauldron Sect?”
The Golden Cauldron Sect could be considered to be an extremely powerful sect with a long history.
Three Divine Demon Realm experts dying wouldn’t have meant much to the entire Golden Cauldron Sect. However, the Golden Cauldron Sect still couldn’t pretend it was fine.
Previously, Jian Wushuang had killed an expert from the Xiang Family who was the sister of Xiang Yi. This had no direct connection to the Golden Cauldron Sect and therefore the Golden Cauldron Sect wouldn’t step in.
This time, the Divine Demon Realm experts from Golden Cauldron Sect had come because they had been on a mission with Xiang Yi and happened to be on the way there.
Now, Jian Wushuang had killed three Divine Demon Realm experts from Golden Cauldron Sect. This was completely different in nature from before.
“Brat. You dared to even kill the experts from our Golden Cauldron Sect! Just wait for your death!” Qian Yuan also stared coldly at Jian Wushuang.
Now it was impossible for them to kill Jian Wushuang on their own.
However, the sect behind them could easily do so.
“Golden Cauldron Sect?” Jian Wushuang chuckled nonchalantly. What can a meagre Golden Cauldron Sect do to me?” Jian Wushuang was confident.
In his previous life, he had lived for close to a hundred thousand years. Moreover, he was the second Perfect Chaotic Lifeform in this world. His knowledge and foresight weren’t something comparable to an ordinary man.
The Golden Cauldron Sect could be considered a large sect in the Wusha Barren Region. However, a sect like this wouldn’t even enter the eyes of Jian Wushuang.
Previously, he hadn’t wanted to cause trouble or attract others’ attention. Therefore, he had been keeping a low profile all along.
Now, the trouble had come to him. As such, he wouldn’t be fearful of it.
If it was just a Golden Cauldron Sect, Jian Wushuang would just need around ten years for him to recover to his peak. At that time, he wouldn’t have to fear anything at all.
Even now, even if he couldn’t win and he reached a critical juncture, Jian Wushuang wouldn’t be silly. He could just choose to join a sect that was even stronger than the Golden Cauldron Sect.
He believed once he showed his talents that there wouldn’t be a lack of sects coming to recruit him.
Now, it was just that he wasn’t willing to join these sects.
However, if he was forced into a corner and was left with no other option, he wouldn’t hesitate to join.
“Alright! Alright! Alright!”
Qian Yuan chuckled out of pure anger as he repeated himself. “Jian Wushuang, just wait and see. In no time, experts from our Golden Cauldron Sect will find you. At that time, I’d like to see if you will still have the same confidence as today!”
“Let’s go!”
Qian Yuan growled, turned around, and left in a hurry.
Although Xiang Yi and the two Divine Demon Realm experts from the Xiang Family were indignant, they were clearly aware of the current circumstances.
Therefore, they could only leave helplessly.
However, just as they turned around and were about to leave the Lin Mansion, they saw three figures approaching them directly.
Seeing the three people, those from the Golden Cauldron Sect and the experts from the Xiang Family came to an abrupt halt.
Qian Yuan and Xiang Yi focused their attention on the approaching trio.
“Their outfits and auras… They are from the Water Fairy Island!!” Qian Yuan was the first to recognize them.
“Why are the people from Water Fairy Island here?” Xiang Yi was also confused.
The Water Fairy Island was one of the ten largest sects in the Wusha Barren Region. It was also a lot stronger than their Golden Cauldron Sect.
Only Xiang Zong was overjoyed when he learnt the approaching trio was from the Water Fairy Island.
“Haha! The experts from the Water Fairy Island are finally here!” Xiang Zong’s eyes lit up with excitement.
Previously, Xiang Family had teamed up with the Zhuge Family to eliminate the Lin Family.
They were also aware of the arrangement between Zhuge Family and Xiang Family, including inviting an expert from Water Fairy Island to ambush Jian Wushuang. In the end, that expert had died.
Zhuge Family had long used different channels to inform Water Fairy Island of the matter. It was just that the Water Fairy Island had not taken action, but now their experts were here!
Judging from their expressions, they were probably there to avenge the death of the expert from the Water Fairy Island.
Chapter 2356: Experts From The Water Fairy Island
“Xiang Yi, Qian Yuan. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the three experts from the Water Fairy Island are most likely here for Jian Wushuang. A few years ago, Jian Wushuang killed a Half Step Divine Demon from the Water Fairy Island,” said Xiang Zong.
“So that’s how it is?” Qian Yuan and Xiang Yi smiled.
“Since they are here for revenge, we can stay for a little longer to enjoy the show.” Qian Yuan smiled coldly before retreating to the empty space at one side.
In the Lin Mansion, they were about to cheer when they thought that the experts from the Golden Cauldron Sect and Xiang Family were leaving. However, they soon quietened down.
They had also noticed the trio from Water Fairy Island.
“Looking at their outfits, they are experts from the Water Fairy Island. Damn!” Lin Tiefeng’s expression darkened and he could already foresee their objectives.
“The experts from Golden Cauldron Sect are just about to leave and now the stronger Water Fairy Island is here?” Zhuo Yunfeng’s expression became extremely bitter.
As for Fire Fairy, she didn’t say a single word.
As for the Thunder Sound Sect, they couldn’t offend the Golden Cauldron Sect. As for Water Fairy Island, it was an even larger existence.
Even Jian Wushuang, who had always been calm and composed, became a little solemn upon seeing the trio from the Water Fairy Island.
“The trio…” Jian Wushuang was staring directly at the approaching trio.
The trio was made up of two men and one woman. The two at both sides were Second Grade Divine Demons judging from the aura exuding from them. Moreover, they weren’t ordinary Second Grade Divine Demons. At the very least, they were a lot stronger than Qian Yuan and Xiang Yi. This wasn’t the most frightening thing yet.
The most frightening thing was the elder with red eyebrows standing in the middle.
That elder with red eyebrows had a stoic look and a demeanor that intimidated others without showing any anger. The moment Jian Wushuang saw the elder with red eyebrows, he subconsciously felt immense pressure.
This pressure was definitely not the kind an ordinary Second Grade Divine Demon would possess.
“A First Grade Divine Demon?” Jian Wushuang mumbled to himself as he furrowed his brows.
Within the Chaotic Divine Demon Realm, the difference between a Third Grade Divine Demon and a Second Grade Divine Demon was extremely huge.
Therefore, the difference between a Second Grade Divine Demon and First Grade Divine Demon would only be greater.
Jian Wushuang knew clearly the reason why he could sweep through the six men from Golden Cauldron Sect was because they didn’t have a powerful Second Grade Divine Demon that could do something to him.
However, in terms of real battle strength, Jian Wushuang estimated he would likely only be able to match one of the three experts from the Water Fairy Island even if he went all out.
If that First Grade Divine Demon from the Water Fairy Island were to fight Jian Wushuang personally, Jian Wushuang wouldn’t stand a chance.
The three approaching figures finally stopped above the Lin Mansion.
Among the three of them, that elder with red eyebrows looked around and asked in a cold but loud voice. “Which one of you is Jian Wushuang?”
“I am,” Jian Wushuang answered.
Although he was wary of the other party’s strength, Jian Wushuang wouldn’t be so intimidated as to not respond to his own name.
“Did that disciple from our Water Fairy Island die at your hands?” The elder with red eyebrows fixed his eyes on Jian Wushuang instantly. At the same time, a powerful divine might weighed down on Jian Wushuang.
However, Jian Wushuang wasn’t an ordinary Chaotic Realm.
If it was just a simple pressure from divine might, even an expert above the Divine Demon Realm wouldn’t affect him much, let alone a First Grade Divine Demon.
“If that disciple you spoke of is Yan Que, she died at my hands,” answered Jian Wushuang.
“A meagre Chaotic Realm could remain so calm and composed under my divine might? That’s pretty rare,” the elder with red eyebrows commented.
“Your Excellency, regarding Yan Que, she was invited by the Zhuge Family to kill Jian Wushuang. Therefore…” Lin Tiefeng attempted to speak up for Jian Wushuang.
“Shut up! Since when was it your turn to speak?” The elder with red eyebrows glanced at Lin Tiefeng and the same terrifying divine might shrouded Lin Tiefeng.
Although Lin Tiefeng was a true Divine Demon Realm expert, he clearly couldn’t be as composed and calm as Jian Wushuang under the stifling pressure of that divine might. His face became flushed with blood and his breathing turned erratic. He couldn’t even say a word.
Having taught Lin Tiefeng a lesson with just a glance, the elder with red eyebrows looked at Jian Wushuang once again.
“I don’t care about the reasons behind you killing Yan Que. However, she was a disciple of my Water Fairy Island after all and wasn’t someone that could be killed casually. Since you killed a disciple from my Water Fairy Island, you will have to leave your life behind.”
The moment he finished his words, he reached out his palm and pointed at where Jian Wushuang was.
A simple point stirred up a terrifying divine power and formed a towering finger.
The giant finger carried terrifying pressure and came before Jian Wushuang in an instant.
Jian Wushuang squinted his eyes. As the giant finger pushed towards him, he took a step forward and swung out his Blood Mountain Sword at the same time.
The Secret Skill of Seven Star and Punisher God had enhanced the power behind the shocking sword essence to a ludicrous level.
Peng!
Following a loud boom, Jian Wushuang was knocked several steps back. However, the towering giant finger had dissipated fully.
“So this is the strength of a First Grade Divine Demon?”
After stabilizing himself, Jian Wushuang frowned deeper. “This isn’t quite right. The strength of a First Grade Divine Demon isn’t just limited to this. He’s just trying to sound me out with this strike and isn’t intending to kill me.”
Jian Wushuang didn’t sense any killing intent from the elder with red eyebrows.
Moreover, he could tell that the elder with red eyebrows was holding back in this strike. Even if he failed to decimate the giant finger, it would most likely not injure him severely.
“Trying to sound me out instead of killing me?” Jian Wushuang was puzzled and looked towards the elder with red eyebrows.
However, the elder with red eyebrows revealed a deep grin at this point. “Previously, someone informed me that an exceptionally demon-like talent appeared in the small Anjiu Prefecture. With just a cultivation base of Early Stage Chaotic Realm, his battle strength isn’t weaker than that of an ordinary Chaotic Divine Demon. He even killed a few Chaotic Divine Demons. At that moment, I didn’t believe it at all.”
“Now that I’m seeing it with my own eyes, it appears that he did not lie to me.”
The elder with red eyebrows was clearly pleasantly surprised.
He was a First Grade Divine Demon and even within Water Fairy Island, he was an elite expert and part of the highest management.
Yan Que was just a Half Step Divine Demon without any status in Water Fairy Island. Her death wouldn’t have alarmed a First Grade Divine Demon enough to come here personally.
The reason why the elder with red eyebrows had come personally was naturally for Jian Wushuang.
Now that he had seen it and sounded out Wu Yu personally, the elder with red eyebrows was extremely agitated.
Chapter 2357: Commandery Governor
“Even though that was a very casual finger, a tier three Chaotic Divine Demon will find it difficult to stop it. However, this little one could stop it head-on. He is much stronger than what I have heard from others. He might have the fighting power of tier two Chaotic Divine Demon!”
“And he is only in the Chaotic Realm? Furthermore, he is not even twenty years old yet!!!”
“I have never heard of someone so insanely talented ever since I started cultivating. As compared to him, the Twelve Young Kings from the Wusha Barren Region seemed like ordinary cultivators!”
The elder man with red eyebrows looked at Jian Wushuang. His eyes sparkled with desire like never before.
He soon hid the desire away.
He gathered himself and said to Jian Wushuang, “Little one. You have killed one of the disciples from the Water Fairy Island. By right, I should kill you. However, considering that the disciple provoked you first, I will spare you life, on the condition that you will go to the Water Fairy Island with me.”
“Go to the Water Fairy island?” Jian Wushuang was stunned. He soon thought of the reason why.
The elder with red eyebrows never wanted to take revenge for the disciple he killed. He was here to recruit him!
“What is going on? Didn’t Jian Wushuang kill one of the disciples from the Water Fairy Island? Why doesn’t this tier one Chaotic Divine Demon from the Water Fairy Island seem like he is going to punish him?” Xiang Yi knitted his eyebrows and said.
“It is normal.” Qian Yuan shook his head and smiled. “If I am not wrong, the disciple that Jian Wushuang killed was an ordinary in the Water Fairy Island hence they would not care even if some of them died. They will only send in experts to resolve the problem as a way to protect their reputation. However, a tier one Chaotic Divine Demon came down personally. He is definitely not here to take revenge for the dead disciple. He probably came to recruit Jian Wushuang.”
“Even though Jian Wushuang killed three junior brothers from the Golden Cauldron Sect, I still have to admit that he is an incredibly talented cultivator with potential so great it is beyond our wildest imagination. It will be weird if the Water Fairy Island does not want to recruit such an incredibly talented teenager. Since the ordinary disciple already died, they will just forget about it as Jian Wushuang is far more valuable.”
Xiang Yi nodded his head after he heard what Qian Yuan said.
“This is bad. If Jian Wushuang agrees to go to the Water Fairy Island with the tier one Chaotic Divine Demon, he would be one of the most influential cultivators there given his talent. The Water Fairy Island will definitely pay greater attention to him as compared to the Twelve Young Kings. How will the Golden Cauldron Sect kill him when he is under the protection of the Water Fairy Island?” Xiang Yi said coldly.
Qian Yuan knitted his eyebrows before waving his hands and said, “Do not panic. Let’s see what happens.”
Within the Lin Mansion, many of the people understood the purpose behind the elder man’s visit after hearing what he said.
The experts within the Lin Mansion, including Zhuo Yunfeng and Lin Tiefeng, heaved a sigh of relief.
“I thought that the expert from the Water Fairy Island was here to take revenge. It seems like I worry too much.” Lin Tiefeng sighed softly.
“Wushuang is incredibly talented. It is normal that the Water Fairy Island will pay heavy attention to him. Now, I am afraid that Wushuang will continue to be stubborn and reject the offer. Since young, he prefers to cultivate freely, without any restrictions at all.” Zhuo Yunfeng said.
“Reject? The Water Fairy Island is one of the top ten clans in the Wusha Barren Region, he will reject their offer?” Lin Tiefeng was shocked.
Zhuo Yunfeng shook his head lightly. After today’s battle, he was sure that the deduction his wife, Luo Xinqin, made was true.
Jian Wushuang was highly likely a top tier expert who reincarnated.
If this was true, he knew that Jian Wushuang would not join any clan from the Wusha Barren Region, even the Water Fairy Island. Jian Wushuang would not be bothered to join it.
Jian Wushuang said, “I do not like restrictions. I will not go to the Water Fairy Island.”
“Little one, it is not up to you.” The elder with red eyebrows said with absolute confidence.
“It is not up to me? I do not think so.” Jian Wushuang said as he raised his eyebrows.
The elder with red eyebrows squinted his eyes.
“Wu Jian. Since the little one is not willing to go to the Water Fairy Island, are you going to bring him there by force?” A playful laugh was heard out of nowhere.
Suddenly, a figure appeared in the air above the Lin Mansion.
It was a handsome and calm man. He wore a simple green shirt. He stood there and radiated a warm aura.
When this man appeared, Lin Tiefeng and the head of the Xiang Family, Xiang Zong, widened their eyes in shock.
In the next moment, they greeted the man in unison.
“Greetings, Lord Commandery Governor!!”
The identity of the man was revealed after the greeting.
Commandery Governor!
The most powerful and authoritative man in the Anjiu Prefecture, the Commandery Governor!
“It is him.” Jian Wushuang looked at the man. He was not surprised.
Before he started fighting the experts from the Golden Calderon Sect, his soul power could detect a faint aura hiding in the dark.
Jian Wushuang had a much more powerful soul power sensory ability as compared to the rest. If not, he would not have detected the Commandery Governor.
Jian Wushuang knew immediately that there was a top tier expert hidden in the dark.
Jian Wushuang also guessed that this top tier expert was likely the Commandery Governor of the Anjiu Prefecture.
After all, his job was not only maintaining peace and tranquility in the Anjiu Prefecture.
He would also take note of certain geniuses, especially the very talented geniuses. If he felt that these talented geniuses had great potential, he would recommend them with his position as a Commandery Governor to the suitable clans for cultivation.
If the clan was satisfied with the expert, they would reward the Commandery Governor handsomely.
Jian Wushuang was already well known for his name. Furthermore, the legendary Taoist Priest Xuan Shen gave him the name personally. Jian Wushuang predicted that the Commandery Governor had been observing him for a very long time.
However, Jian Wushuang always remained lowkey and never displayed his incredible talent. This made it difficult for the Commandery Governor to make an accurate judgment of his true abilities.
However, after Jian Wushuang showed his true power, during the fighting three months ago when he killed two Chaotic Divine Demons while he was only in the Chaotic Realm, the Commandery Governor would definitely know of it.
This time, Jian Wushuang was in grave danger. Hence, the Commandery Governor had to interfere.
From the start, the Commandery Governor had always been in the dark, observing. Even if Jian Wushuang did not show his true power and defeated the Chaotic Divine Demons from the Golden Calderon Sect, there was no way Xiang Yi would kill him as the Commandery Governor would definitely save him.
Chapter 2358: Great Compassion Sect, Brahman Sword Fairy!
“Wu Jian. You came down all the way to the Anjiu Prefecture and you did not even tell me? I am the Commandery Governor of the Anjiu Prefecture.” The man smiled warmly. It was as though he was having a casual chat with a friend.
“I heard that you shut yourself off from the rest of the world to cultivate. How can I disturb you?” Wu Jian said.
The Commandery Governors within the Wusha Barren Region were voted by the various clans.
These Commandery Governors were powerful. Most of these Commandery Governors were tier two Chaotic Divine Demons. There were also Commandery Governors who were tier one Chaotic Divine Demons.
The Commandery Governor of the Anjiu Prefecture was a tier one Chaotic Divine Demon. Both of them were in the same realm, hence Wu Jian did not put up a front.
“I did shut myself off. However, an important figure came to visit. I had to welcome him.” The Anjiu Prefecture Commandery Governor said. He told Wu Jian half the truth.
It was true that he welcomed an important figure. After the important figure left, the Commandery Governor announced he would continue to shut himself off to cultivate. In reality, he did not do so.
“Important figure? Who?” Wu Jian asked.
“A Golden Deacon from the Great Compassion Sect.” The Commandery Governor said.
“Great Compassion Sect?” Wu Jian’s iris constricted in shock.
After the cultivators within the Lin Mansion heard the words: Great Compassion Sect, they were in awe.
There were numerous clans in the Wusha Barren Region.
The Water Fairy Island was considered extremely powerful and was ranked the top three among all clans.
However, the most powerful and respected clan in the Wusha Barren Region was without a doubt the Great Compassion Sect.
It was known by everyone as the most powerful clan in the Wusha Barren Region!
“A Golden Deacon from the Great Compassion Sect. He should be a tier two Chaotic Divine Demon. Even though he comes from the Great Compassion Sect, he should not be considered an important figure, no?” Wu Jian said.
“That is true. However, this Golden Deacon was sent here by the ancient elder from the Great Compassion Sect who is an expert in the sword doctrine.” The Commandery Governor smiled and said.
“An ancient elder who is an expert in sword doctrine? You mean Brahman Sword Fairy?” Wu Jian was shocked.
The Commandery Governor of the Anjiu Prefecture smiled.
Wu Jian felt something stuck in his throat.
Brahman Sword Fairy was an unbelievably powerful super expert.
Many of the cultivators present did not know who he was as they were far too weak. However, Wu Jian, who was a tier one Chaotic Divine Demon and had great status within the Water Fairy Island, knew exactly who the Brahman Sword Fairy was.
He was a superpower who was above the Divine Demon Realm.
Furthermore, the Brahman Sword Fairy was called a sword cultivator. His understanding of the Sword Doctrine was extremely deep and profound!
He should be the most powerful sword cultivator in the Wusha Barren Region.
“The almighty Brahman Sword Fairy sent someone to the Anjiu Prefecture personally? What is he after?” Wu Jian asked.
“For someone.” The Commandery Governor of the Anjiu Prefecture smiled as he pointed at Jian Wushuang. “For him!”
“Me?” Jian Wushuang was lost.
Even though Jian Wushuang had never heard of the Brahman Sword Fairy before, he could guess a thing or two from Wu Jian’s reactions.
Even so, Jian Wushuang shouldn’t have met such a big figure before.
“Wu Jian. Let me tell you the truth. I recommended this little one called Jian Wushuang to the Great Compassion Sect a long time ago.” The Commandery Governor of the Anjiu Prefecture said.
“What?” Wu Jian knitted his eyebrows.
“You might not know this: his name was given to him by Taoist Priest Xuan Shen. That man is one of the most mysterious and powerful men I have ever met. Ever since this little one was born, I have been taking note of him. He stayed lowkey previously, which was why I too remained passive. However, three years ago, the little one fought a battle near the Lin Mansion. I only knew he attained Great Achievement in the Sword Doctrine Realm after he crushed Zhuge Hong from the Zhuge Family with his sword skills!”
The Commandery Governor from the Anjiu Prefecture stopped for a moment before he continued, “Back then, he was only sixteen when he attained Great Achievement in the Sword Doctrine Realm. How incredible was his innate talent? Since then, I have contacted several clans over the years. Even though these clans gave very attractive conditions, I felt like something was missing.”
“This situation lasted until not too long ago when I contacted the Brahman Sword Fairy from the Great Compassion Sect!”
“You mean that the Brahman sent someone over to bring the little one to the Great Compassion Sect?” Wu Jian knitted his eyebrows and asked.
“Yes and no. Even though the little one is extremely talented, the people from the Great Compassion Sect have yet to see it with their own eyes. It was based on my words alone. They needed to verify what I had said. The Great Compassion Sect wants me to bring the little one to the Great Compassion Sect to take a series of tests. If he passes them all, the Brahman Sword Fairy will take him in as his lineal disciple!!”
“Is that the case?” Wu Jian understood the situation. However, his frown deepened.
“After all, I have also heard about what this little one did in the Lin Mansion. I was also not sure about the rumors. Hence, I came down personally and saw the little one kill Chaotic Divine Demons easily while he was only in the Chaotic Realm. Without a doubt, his talent was much more incredible than what I knew.”
“It will be extremely easy for him to pass the tests at the Great Compassion Sect given how talented he is. He will also become the lineal disciple of the Brahman Sword Fairy.”
The Commandery Governor of the Anjiu Prefecture smiled, “Wu Jian, I know that the Water Fairy Island also wants to recruit this little one. However, the Great Compassion Sect is still a better choice for his development and growth.”
“Humph. That might not be true. I admit that the Water Fairy Island is not as powerful as the Great Compassion Sect. However, the ability of a clan to nurture and develop experts has nothing to do with its power. Some weak clans can also nurture top tier experts.”
“Furthermore, the Water Fairy Island has a very solid foundation. We can provide the little one with the same amount, or even more, resources that the Great Compassion Sect will. As long as the little one is willing to go back to the island with me, I am sure my island master is willing to take him as his lineal disciple as well.”
“It is different. Even though the island master of the Water Fairy Island is powerful, sword doctrine is not his expertise. On the other hand, Brahman Sword Fairy is the most powerful sword cultivator in the Wusha Barren Region. This little one has incredible talent in sword doctrine. He can only realize his full potential in the sword doctrine under the personal guidance of the Brahman Sword Fairy.” The Commandery Governor of the Anjiu Prefecture shook his head slightly and said.
Chapter 2359: Competition of Invites
“So what if he is the most powerful sword cultivator? Him being a powerful expert does not mean that he is a good teacher .” Wu Jian said coldly.
“Even so, it is still more beneficial for Jian Wushuang for him to be his teacher as compared to someone who is not even a sword cultivator.” The Commandery Governor said.
“Bai Yue, it seems like you are going to oppose me and the Water Fairy Island?” Wu Jian was enraged.
He had to recruit Jian Wushuang as his talent was unmatched.
“I do not wish to oppose you or the Water Fairy Island. However, I am the Commandery Governor of the Anjiu Prefecture. It is my role to send the talented geniuses within the Anjiu Prefecture to the clan that is the most suitable for their growth. I feel that it is much better for Jian Wushuang to go to the Great Compassion Sect and be trained under the Brahman Sword Fairy as compared to the Water Fairy Island.” the Commandery Governor of the Anjiu Prefecture, Bai Yue said.
“Bastard!” Wu Jian was enraged.
The people around looked at this scene in awe.
Initially, they had no idea the Commandery Governor was here. Now, they knew.
Bai Yue was here for Jian Wushuang as well.
And he had been contacting various clans to find one suitable for Jian Wushuang. Now, he managed to contact the Great Compassion Sect.
Bai Yue wanted Jian Wushuang to go to the Great Compassion Sect, while Wu Jian would want Jian Wushuang to return to the Water Fairy Island with him.
It was obvious that both sides wanted to recruit the extremely talented Jian Wushuang.
“Bai Yue. You are not a member of the Great Compassion Sect. If you introduce him to the Great Compassion Sect, all you will get is resources and treasures. The Water Fairy Island can give you treasures and resources of equal value. Furthermore, I will owe you a favor. How does this sound?” Wu Jian took a deep breath and said.
He had no choice.
In terms of fighting power, Bai Yue was not weaker than him.
In terms of status, Bai Yue was a Commandery Governor. He had a great relationship with many clans. He could even contact the Great Compassion Sect. The Water Fairy Island would not offend someone like this easily.
Hence, he wished Bai Yue would accept his favor.
Hearing what Wu Jian said, Bai Yue hesitated for a moment before shaking his head.” Wu Jian, I am sorry. If it was any other ordinary talented geniuses, I will definitely take your offer since you came down personally. I won’t even need the rewards. However, this little one is different. He is truly an extremely talented genius that is far beyond my imagination. If I recommend him to the Great Compassion Sect, the rewards that the Great Compassion Sect will give me will be far more than what the Water Fairy Island can.
“It will not be a wise trade if I traded such a genius for a favor from you. Of course, I can consider if it was a favor from the Island Master of the Water Fairy Island, or from the Water Fairy Island itself.”
“A favor from Lord Island Master or the Water Fairy Island itself?” Wu Jian shook his head bitterly.
Even though he was one of the higher-ups in the Water Fairy Island, he could not represent the entire Water Fairy Island.
‘No matter how much we speak about it, it is useless. In the end, we have to respect the decision of the little one on which clan he will join.” Bai Yue said as he looked over at Jian Wushuang. “Jian Wushuang, are you interested in going to the Great Compassion Sect with me?”
Wu Jian also looked at Jian Wushuang solemnly, “Little one, you should have no problem entering the clans within the Wusha Barren Region and becoming a core disciple. I will not force you. However, I sincerely wish that you will return to the Water Fairy Island with me. If you do, I can promise you that we will train you and provide you with all we can.”
Bai Yue and Wu Jian looked at Jian Wushuang, awaiting his reply.
At the same time, the people present looked at Jian Wushuang.
“Great Compassion Sect and the Water Fairy Island are recruiting him at the same time. Both clans promised him with many great things. Especially the Great Compassion Sect. He will become the lineal disciple of the Brahman Sword Fairy.” Qian Yuan from the Golden Cauldron Sect exclaimed.
“How can this brat be so lucky?” Xiang Yi’s face was dark.
“It is not that he is lucky. He is qualified to receive those treatments.” Qian Yuan shook his head and said.
He fought Jian Wushuang before. He knew how incredible Jian Wushuang’s talent and potential was. He also understood what it meant for him.
The people in the Lin Mansion were very excited.
This was especially the case for Zhuo Yunfeng and Lin Tiefeng.
“The little one. Even the most powerful clan in the Wusha Barren Region, the Great Compassion Sect, wants to recruit him. The most powerful sword cultivator in the Wusha Barren Region will even take him in as a lineal disciple. Nephew Wushaung’s lucky…” Lin Tiefeng exclaimed.
“Wushuang is born stubborn. He looks down on most clans. I hope he will be as stubborn in the face of both the Great Compassion Sect and the Water Fairy Sect!” Zhuo Yunfeng thought to himself.
He was afraid that Jian Wushuang would reject both offers.
Everyone had their attention on Jian Wushuang. He fell silent.
He was hesitant.
He did not want to join a clan and wanted to recover his prime fighting power as quickly as possible so that he could venture out into the more vast place.
However, his talent was already known throughout the Wusha Barren Region and had many enemies, like the Golden Cauldron Sect, that threatened the safety of not him but his parents. He must think of a way to guarantee their safety even when he’s not around.
After a brief moment, Jian Wushuang looked up.
“Lords, if I were to join your clan, what must I do?” Jian Wushuang asked.
“Simple. The Great Compassion Sect is the most powerful clan in the Wusha Barren Region. You must be a genius to enter this clan. What they need to do is to give it their all to become more powerful. After they become powerful, they will need to contribute to the Great Compassion Sect.” Bai Yue smiled and said.
“The Water Fairy Island is different. We have many types of disciples. There are those who are talented and those who are ordinary.”
“In the Water Fairy Island, there are two main groups of disciples. One is the core disciples, and the other is the outer disciples. The core disciples are the best among all of the disciples and the Water Fairy Island will pay much more attention to them. On the other hand, the outer disciples will have less attention but also fewer restrictions. The Water Fairy Island will not care too much about the outer disciples. Even if they are killed when they venture out, the Water Fairy Island will only take revenge if an expert pass by the culprit.”
As Bai Yue had been a Commandery Governor for a very long time, he was very knowledgeable about the structures of many clans.
He knew about the environment within both the Great Compassion Sect or the Water Fairy Island.
After hearing this, Jian Wushuang raised his eyebrows.
“There are minimal restrictions on the outer disciples within the Water Fairy Island?”
……
Chapter 2360: Jian Wushuang’s Choice
“Little one, have you decided whether you will go with me to the Great Compassion Sect or go with him to the Water Fairy Island?” Bai Yue smiled as he looked over at Jian Wushuang.
Bai Yue was absolutely confident of Jian Wushuang’s choice.
The Great Compassion Sect and the Water Fairy Sect were both top tier clans within the Wusha Barren Region. However, the Great Compassion Sect was definitely the most powerful clan here.
Furthermore, the most powerful sword cultivator, Brahman Sword Fairy wanted to take him in as a lineal disciple.
He believed that Jian Wushuang was not dumb and how to make a proper decision.
The people around looking at Jian Wushuang also seemed to have guessed Jian Wushuang’s decision.
“Brother Wushuang will choose the Great Compassion Sect, right?” Lin Yan said softly at one corner.
“Definitely the Great Compassion Sect.” Lin Tao nodded his head. “Even though the Water Fairy Island is powerful, it cannot be compared to the Great Compassion Sect as it is inferior in terms of overall power, foundation, and the number of talented geniuses. There are four Twelve Young Kings in the Wusha Barren Region within the Great Compassion Sect, and the strongest of them all, Zhu Qiancheng, is also there!”
“And now, the Great Compassion Sect is recruiting him to become a lineal disciple of an ancient elder. Anyone will take up this offer without hesitation.”
The people from Thunder Sound Sect thought this way.
Right then, Jian Wushuang smiled lightly and said, “Lord Commandery Governor. I thank you for your goodwill but I want to go to the Water Fairy Island with this lord right here.”
“Huh?” Bai Yue was stunned.
Wu Jian was overjoyed.
“Little friend Wushuang, you are serious about going to the Water Fairy Island with me?” Wu Jian could not believe his own years. The way he addressed Jian Wushuang changed as well.
“Of course, but under one condition.” Jian Wushuang said.
“What is it?” Wu Jian was excited.
He was prepared to agree to Jian Wushuang’s condition as long as it was not too excessive that the Water Fairy Island could not fulfill or be heavily disabled in order to fulfill his condition.
He knew that it was worth it for the Water Fairy Island to strive for what Jian Wushuang wanted as it would definitely be worth it.
“My condition is very simple. I want to be an outer disciple in the Water Fairy Island.” Jian Wushuang said.
“Outer disciple?” Wu Jian was stunned.
The people around were also stunned when they heard what Jian Wushuang said.
“He rejected my offer of going to the Great Compassion Sect and the chance of becoming the lineal disciple of the most powerful sword cultivator in the Wusha Barren Region so that you can become an outer disciple in the Water Fairy Island? This little one is interesting.” Bai Yue looked at Jian Wushuang with great interest.
“Little friend Wushuang. With your talent, it is easy for you to become a core disciple or even a lineal disciple of one of the most powerful experts within the Water Fairy Island. On the other hand, the amount of resources you will get as an outer disciple is very little. It will be nurtured to the fullest, you…” Wu Jian opened his mouth and said.
Jian Wushuang waved his hands and interrupted Wu Jian, “I only want to be a normal disciple without any restrictions. Does my lord accept my condition? If not, I will go and join another clan.”
“Yes, of course. It is just that…” Wu Jian nodded his head quickly.
He was about to continue but he stopped himself.
Jian Wushuang had already said that he did not want too many restrictions. He did not bother if he was a core disciple or if he was an ordinary disciple.
Wu Jian could not force Jian Wushuang to listen to him.
“If that is the case, can my lord stay in the Lin Mansion for a few days? Once I am ready, I will go to the Water Fairy Island with you.” Jian Wushuang said.
“Yes.” Wu Jian agreed.
“Haha. It seems like I wasted my trip here.” Bai Yue laughed awkwardly.
“Sir Bai Yue, little friend Wushuang grew up in the Anjiu Prefecture. During all these years, I am sure that you have helped him in many ways. Since he became one of the disciples of the Water Fairy Island, we will prepare a generous gift for you.” Wu Jian smiled.
“Oh, thanks a lot.” Bai Yue smiled a little and he seemed to be in a better mood.
He wanted to introduce Jian Wushuang to the Great Compassion Sect and obtain great rewards from this “transaction”.
Now that his plan was disrupted, his hard work would not go to waste if the Water Fairy Island would give him a generous gift.
“Little one, even though I suggest that you go to the Great Compassion Sect, the Water Fairy Island is a good place as well. I hope that you will grow and realize your full potential. We will meet one day in the future.” Bai Yue smiled and left.
“Goodbye, Lord Commandery Governor!”
“Goodbye, Lord Commandery Governor!”
The experts in the Lin Mansion bid Bai Yue goodbye.
After Bai Yue left.
“Little friend Wushuang, I have heard that you have encountered some trouble within the Anjiu Prefecture. Some people even threatened you. Do you need me to settle this for you?” Wu Jian looked at the experts from the Golden Cauldron Sect with killing intent in his eyes.
The experts from the Golden Cauldron Sect felt a chill down their spine when they met Wu Jian’s gaze.
Even though the experts from the Golden Cauldron Sect were not weak, Wu Jian could definitely kill them right here.
“They are just a bunch of jokers. Ignore them.” Jian Wushuang smiled lightly.
The experts from the Golden Cauldron Sect heaved a sigh of relief.
“Let us go!”
Even though they were embarrassed, Qian Yuan and Xiang Yi did not dare to stay any longer and left immediately.
At the same time, they knew that there was no way they could take revenge on Jian Wushuang anymore.
They no longer had the chance and ability to do so anymore.
After the experts from the Golden Cauldron Sect and the Xiang Family left, the Lin Mansion turned peaceful once again.
“Little friend Wushuang, when will we leave for the Water Fairy Island?” Wu Jian asked gently. He was a tier one Chaotic Divine Demon, yet he did not put up a front at all.
“Within ten days.” Jian Wushuang said.
“Alright. I will wait here for ten days.” Wu Jian was elated.
He was willing to wait for months just so that Jian Wushuang would return to the Water Fairy Island with him.
“Everyone, I have already prepared accommodation for all of you. You can rest there.” Lin Tiefeng came up and said respectfully.
“That is a good idea, head of the Lin Family. I will take up that offer.” Wu Jian said.
“My lords, this way please.”
Lin Tiefeng said enthusiastically.
