Chapter 144: Another Lost Lamb in Need of the Holy Church’s Salvation
The world’s best sword’s grace had shocked everyone present, whether they were Immortal cultivators or sword forgers.
The low-level cultivators who hade to watch the show were even more convinced that the one spirit stone entrance fee was worth it!
Some of the more observant ones looked at Zuo Youhuai, who had his eyes closed as if nothing had happened, with a grave expression.
That move was not considered a sword strike, and it was not something that required much effort from him.
He could use this sword, and he could also use the second or third sword. Before the Tideviewing and Sword-listening contest, he warned everyone who had ill intentions that he, Zuo Youhuai, would be here to hold the fort.
Previously, many people had guessed that the current Sword Pavilion Master should be reced.
However, this old man with a in and haggard appearance was far from as weak as he looked. He looked like a man who was about to die.
He was not done yet, and he had more tricks up his sleeve.
In fact, one could only truly feel the power of this sword from a distance.
Liu Yuan could clearly see a straight white light between heaven and earth from the City Lord’s Mansion. It cut through the clouds and the wind in an instant, as if the gate to heaven was cut off.
Even the sound of the river stopped at this moment. It was the attitude of a top swordsman and not a swordsmithing master.
In fact, ‘Weapon Sovereign Jianfu’ Zuo Youhuai was not only a 9-star swordsmith, but also one of the famous swordsmen back then.
More importantly, the Lake Light Sword in his hand had the ‘City Crusher’ effect, which was famous in the game. However, no one had gotten their hands on it at that time.
After all, this thing was a symbolic item in the Sword Pavilion. To get it, one must first enter the Sword Pavilion’s Secret Realm ‘Vast Sea Sword Tomb’ and be recognized by more than ten Sword Souls, followed by more than half of the internal members of the Sword Pavilion.
However, before that, one had to be qualified to be recognized by the Sword Pavilion as someone who could fight for the ownership of the Lake Light Sword. Strength and reputation were indispensable.
Other than the Lake Light Sword, there was also a ranking of the ‘Ten Great Swords’, which was announced by the Green Centipede.
Yes, this organization was not only ying with money, but also with public opinion.
Many of the ranking lists that were circted in private were made and spread by the Green Centipede.
The person who arranged the order was the one mentioned before, one of the male NPCs, ‘Bai Xiaosheng – Wild talk holds the universe’ Li Jinbei. Liu Yuan had also gained favorability with this guy.
Once this guy appeared, there was basically no objection.
Although there were actually various cluester on that pointed out that the Green Centipede would actually smuggle in and use the name of the all-knowing schr to publish some false rankings.
As for the Ten Great Swords in the world, there were only a few that were most well-known. The Lake Light Sword was one, and the Thousand-Feather Sword, known as the most beautiful Lethal Weapon, was another. The sword of the Sect Master of the Jade Mirage Sect, Xuanshu Saber, was another. There was also the heirloom sword of the demonic sect, the Luosheng Crossing Heaven Sword. Another such sword was the Sea of Bitterness, the sword flute of the Love Monk. The rest paled inparison.
“Zuo Youhuai’s strength is much stronger than I had imagined. But at least, although this sword could cut off the White Dragon River, it could not cut off the force produced by the collision between the melting snow tide on the Jade Snow Mountain and the current.”
In the crowd, Shao Cao calmly analyzed the situation in his mind, and still felt that the n was highly feasible.
“Damn it. The entire City of Ten Thousand Swords is on high alert now because of that sword attack from Green Lotus Swordsman. They’re looking for the people from the demonic sect. Once they’re caught, they won’t let them off easily. Hmm, many disciples of the sacred sect have been exposed.”
Shao Cao was a little angry. If it was not for this, the n would have gone much smoother, and it would not have been dyed like this.
If the Holy Messenger were to see this, it would be a huge joke. It would not be as simple as failing the mission, but they might suffer unimaginable torture.
The demon sect spy was a little uneasy.
But fortunately, some of them were undercover agents in the Sword Pavilion, so they were extremely safe and would not be discovered.
“Brother Shao, it’s not easy to move around in this city. In the next few days, the City of Ten Thousand Swords will prohibit its residents from riding flying swords. I’m afraid it won’t be very convenient for them to do so.”
The spy beside him was called Lu Gong. He had a square face and sharp facial features. His expression was cold and stern. He looked like a righteous person, but in fact, he was frowning and secretly talking about the n not going well.
Right now, the City of Ten Thousand Swords was under martialw, and they carefully searched the origins and background of every single person. If they find anything amiss, the city officials will immediately tie them up.
They would rather kill a hundred by mistake than let one go.
The days of the two undercover agents were particrly difficult.
Shao Cao unfurled his fan and pretended not to mind. “There’s nothing we can do about it. After all, this is the City of Ten Thousand Swords, right? Only with strict rules can there be harmonious order.”
The meaning of his words was to bide their time and listen to hismands.
Lu Gong nodded and said, “It’s like this. If someone wants to jump out, they must be dealt with in time. This is what a City Lord of a big city would do. The City of Ten Thousand Swords lives up to its reputation.”
Shao Cao nodded and looked up at the stage.
The swordsmiths began to burn incense and pray. Thepetition would officially begin the next day.
Shao Cao fanned himself with the folding fan in his hand and narrowed his eyes to see who was suitable to be a servant of the next level.
It was fine if they were short of people. They should get rid of those useless people who could not do anything. What they needed was a subordinate who could help them.
His gaze swept across the swordsmiths’ faces and finally stopped on a figure who did not fit in with the rest.
Eh?
Wasn’t that the legendary mortal swordsmithing master?
He seemed to be a little shaken, and he was very nervous. He also felt a little inferior and didn’t know what to do. It seemed that no one had told him that there was a segment of burning incense and praying on the Singing Sword tform.
The Sword Pavilion did not ept him, and the experienced spy from the demon sect immediately noticed this.
How pitiful, but the Holy Church will save him!
Shao Cao’s eyes were filled with pity. He knew that there was another lost sheep in need of the Holy Church’s redemption.
…
Zuo Youhuai looked at the people below and naturally saw Geng Qi’s embarrassment.
There were still some people in the Sword Pavilion who felt that a mortal was not qualified to inherit the qualification of a 9-star swordsmith.
However, this was also part of the test.
He admired Geng Qi, but he was aware of his inferiority and timidity.
Geng Qi had been scared out of his wits when he had seen Shu Road in the sky. This was the embodiment of a person’s nature, and the function of Shu Road was to reflect all of these.
When the ceremony was over, Zuo Youhuai returned to the Sword Pavilion.
As soon as he stepped into his room, he heard the sword servant’s voice.
“Pavilion Master, the invitation to visit the Saint has been rejected.”
…
While the Tideviewing and Sword-listeningpetition was in full swing.
Xue Yan, the young man who set off from the Water Moon Dock of the Jiang Kingdom and headed all the way to the stronghold of the demon sect.
Finally, after about ten years, he entered the demon sect’s sub-altar.
