Chapter 47: Double the Amount
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
On the street, there was a moment of silence.
The innkeeper returned very quickly and said respectfully, “Sir, the total damages amount to about fifty taels of silver.”
“Hmm,” nodded Su Yang, then looked at both parties and said, “Compensation.
Each side twenty-five taels of silver.”
Qi Feng and Meng Heng’s lips twitched. They really had to pay up?
The atmosphere at the scene was strangely quiet. Su Yang just waited quietly.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, would they compensate or not?
If they did, it would be humiliating. If they didn’t… They glanced at Su Yang, who was staring at them calmly.
If Su Yang did not have the strength, they would not have cared at all and would have left on the spot. However, the strength that Su Yang had shown just now made them not dare to do so.
Meng Heng was the first to decide to pay up and leave. After experiencing Su Yang’s strength, he knew how terrifying Su Yang was.
Qi Feng also chose to pay. If he still didn’t understand the situation, he would be a fool.
Su Yang took the money with satisfaction and handed it to the innkeeper.
The innkeeper did not expect that he could actually get back the money he had lost. He immediately smiled.
“Thank you, sir, thank you, sir…”
“Sir, yesterday, a group of sect disciples also caused trouble in the store…” After receiving the silver, the innkeeper suddenly thought of the group of people from yesterday.
“Do you know who they are?”
“Yes, yes, they all mentioned their respective sects yesterday. They are Lu Lei of the Iron Body Sect and Zhang Chufeng of the Fire Sword Sect.”
“How many losses?”
“Sir, including the meal expenses, it’s about thirty taels.”
“Okay, I got it. I’ll give it to you when I get back.”
Su Yang immediately had the guards write it down.
After they had gone a little further, Su Yang looked at Rong Xiaoshi, the soldier beside him, and asked, “Do you remember it clearly?”
Rong Xiaoshi replied, “I remembered it clearly. Thirty taels of silver will be paid by the Iron Body Sect and the Fire Sword Sect.”
Su Yang shook his head and said, “No, that’s not how you remember it.”
Rong Xiaoshi was a little confused. “Do we have to go and collect this money?”
“Yes, sir.” “Will it be a waste of time?”
“Yes, sir.” “Do you know a phrase: ‘Time is money’?”
“Yes…
“So, double the amount.”
After Su Yang finished speaking, Rong Xiaoshi understood on the spot. He crossed out the thirty taels and changed it to sixty taels.
Sir is truly considerate, even more so than he had thought.
News of Su Yang’s actions quickly spread. At the same time, Su Yang’s identity was soon investigated.
Patrol Department – Four Direction Inspector – Su Yang – Fourth Grade Cultivation.
In just half a day, the information spread among the martial world in the county.
What do martial artists like the most? Fighting and vying for fame and profit?
Wrong!
Admittedly, many martial artists enjoy fighting and vying for fame and profit. But more than that, they enjoy bragging and gossiping.
When drinking, they love to boast about their experiences.
They would talk about where they had been, whom they had met, how powerful they were, their remarkable achievements, and compare themselves to other individuals.
In heated discussions, the person boasting might even think they were the ones who achieved such feats.
When it was almost noon, Su Yang also came to the restaurant to rest.
In the morning, Su Yang had already dealt with several martial arts fights.
It must be said that martial artists truly violate the law with their fists. Martial artists were all people with abundant Qi and blood. have worked hard for their martial arts skills. Without a significant gap in strength, how could they admit their weakness?
Even if it’s just a minor argument, they would start fighting. Even if it’s two ordinary men, if one tells the other, “You’re no good, you’re weak,” they would probably end up fighting.
These young martial cultivators, who have dedicated themselves to cultivation for more than ten years, believe they have acquired formidable skills and are always eager to voice their opinions.
They would say that certain martial arts or sects are no good… It’s truly arrogance. How can they not get beaten up?
But then again, these people were young and frivolous.
Su Yang was eating on the second floor when he heard someone talking loudly below.
“I heard that the disciples of the Ziyue Sect and the Qingyang Sect fought at the Cloudy Mountain inn this morning and were easily suppressed. Do you know what happened?”
“Don’t you know? You’re really behind the news…”
“At that time, the entire room was beaten into ruins. The scene was extremely terrifying, and no one dared to stop them.”
At this time, the inspector was called Su Yang, who was about twenty years old and also of the younger generation.”
“He rushed over with the soldiers of the Martial Suppression Division and stopped the battle.”
“This doesn’t seem to be a big deal, right?”
“Heh… Why are you in such a hurry? Let me explain slowly.”
“This isn’t just stopping the fight. After both sides stopped fighting, Su Yang ordered the disciples of the Ziyue Sect and the Qingyang Sect to compensate the Cloudy Mountain inn.”
“The entire Cloudy Mountain inn is in tin ruins, and they didn’t want to pay.”
“That made Su Yang displeased, and with a surge of sword intent, he suppressed the disciples from both sects in an instant.”
“Only then did the disciples of the two sects obediently pay up and renovate the Cloudy Mountain inn.”
As this person spoke, he also accompanied various gestures as if it was his doing, and finally looked proudly at the crowd.
The onlookers in the martial world were also listening with great interest.
“You mean sword intent? Did Su Yang really comprehend sword intent?” Among the onlookers, one of them named Gu Xiu suddenly became interested and asked.
“How could it be fake when hundreds of pairs of eyes have witnessed it?” The person speaking became displeased when someone questioned him.
“Moreover, the damaged Cloudy Mountain inn has been repaired. If you don’t believe me, go and see for yourself.”
“Interesting.” Gu Xiu didn’t care about the other party’s tone. He was very happy at the moment.
“But I don’t know if he’s qualified enough.”
Gu Xiu had originally planned to have a meal in Tianfeng Prefecture before going to the capital. Now, he wanted to see this guy called Su Yang.
To comprehend sword essence in this lousy place without any assistance, one would truly be a genius!
On the second floor of the restaurant, Su Yang was speechless as he listened to the martial world guests below.
The Cloudy Mountain inn being beaten to a pulp, him suppressing disciples from two factions with a wave of his hand, and renovating the Cloudy Mountain inn—what a load of bullsh*t.
Su Yang ate his own meal without paying attention to these things.
Afternoon arrived.
As Su Yang continuously suppressed the martial world guests with his actions, the disciples of various factions became much more obedient. After resting and procuring supplies, they left the county city.
After all, they were here to kill the evil cultivators, not to be beaten up by Su Yang.
In the afternoon, Su Yang was free again. With nothing to do, Su Yang started swinging his sword.
There were no restrictions on the location of the sword swing, nor were there many requirements. If one could swing according to the rules, they would gain experience.
So… The soldiers who followed Su Yang also saw Su Yang casually find an empty space to swing his sword.
Rong Xiaoshi’s eyes widened. He did not understand what Su Yang meant, “Returning to the basics… That’s right, this must be a sword technique that returns to the basics. It’s normal for me not to see it.”
Soon, Rong Xiaoshi found the reason and felt that he was too weak. He couldn’t even figure out the essence of Su Yang’s sword swings and almost mistook them for the basic sword moves that a beginner swordsman needed to practice.
However… Lord Su’s sword swings really seemed like sword moves..
