Chapter 444 – The Sword Is Like the Person (I) (2/2)

And yet, he still could not escape from the sword in Chen Changsheng's hand.

Zhou Ziheng suddenly realized that he had forgotten something.

Before this test of swords, the Tianhai clan had prepared for him all sorts of information. Although he had only glanced over it out of self-confidence, he still remembered that this youth, through some sort of lucky chance, had actually learned the Yeshi Step of the demons. Although it wasn’t the real and complete Yeshi Step, it let his opponent increase his speed to a terrifying level.

If this were any normal time, then Zhou Ziheng would have had countless ways to respond to this, but at present, he could only swiftly retreat in panic. How could he possibly have time to think of these counters?

Zhou Ziheng was just like a boat in the middle of a vast ocean, bobbing up and down and incessantly retreating.

Chen Changsheng was like the water of this ocean, always following and not letting him get even one step away.

With panicked shouts, the crowd scattered and then retreated to the ends of the street.

As the winds calmed, Chen Changsheng and Zhou Ziheng stood in the middle of the street.

Several powerful figures under the awning emitted their Qi in order to prevent the Qi from the battle from injuring the crowd.

But there was no more need.

Chen Changsheng's sword had already penetrated through Zhou Ziheng's chest.

Blood flowed down from the sword and continuously dripped onto the ground.

Xue Xingchuan in his teahouse was once more struck speechless.

Zhou Ziheng's judgment was not wrong. The amount of true essence that Chen Changsheng could use was too little, so the sword energy was not forceful. Xue Xingchuan could naturally understand this point as well. Consequently, even though he had confirmed that Chen Changsheng's swordplay had really come from that man, he did not believe that the sword would have much strength after breaking through Zhou Ziheng's Star Domain.

Chen Changsheng's sword had once again overturned the so-called common sense. It was clearly not powerful, but it still easily pierced through Zhou Ziheng's body.

Why?

”It's not that sword technique he used in Xunyang City where he exploded his life and true essence.”

At one end of the street, inside a gloomy carriage, an official was quickly jotting something down on a piece of paper.

Viewing the scene from the window, he thought a bit more, then wrote another sentence on the paper.

”There is possibly something strange about that sword.”

There was soft and tiny sound.

Chen Changsheng withdrew his sword.

Grasping his stomach, Zhou Ziheng collapsed onto the street.

There were already people from the Thirteen Divisions of Radiant Green waiting on the side. They hurried over to treat his wounds.

Zhou Ziheng was in terrible pain and also very perplexed. He asked, ”This…what sword is it?”

The street was very quiet.

The surrounding crowd, the people under the awning, and Xue Xingchuan in the tea house were all waiting for Chen Changsheng's answer.

Chen Changsheng glanced at the sword in his hand. Blood continued to flow down the edge and drip to the ground. Not a single drop remained behind, and the body of the sword once again shone, unstained by dust.

This dagger had been given to him by Senior Yu Ren. At the moment, it contained the sword soul of Chen Xuanba's Dragoncry Sword.

But in the end, he was not Chen Xuanba. In the end, he possessed his own sword intent.

From the Garden of Zhou to the snowy plains, from Xunyang City to the capital, his sword intent had finally matured.

Therefore it was also time for this sword to have its own name.

Chen Changsheng pondered this, then finally said, ”Let's call it…Stainless.”
