Chapter 56 – Sword Conference At Swordsman City

Three months later…

Zhou Xuanji and his companions reached Great Zhou’s customs after a long journey.

In front of the customs was a wasteland, so vast that one could not see its end.

The tall and majestic walls of Great Zhou’s custom were far higher than those of kingdoms. Looking from afar, there were numerous carriages, silhouettes flooding towards the custom gate from all directions; it looked like multiple rivers merging into the sea.

Zhou Xuanji’s dragon eagles drew much attention because of how huge they were.

He and his companions stopped when they were miles away from the custom.

“It’s in your hands.”

He handed a storage bag to the Sword Valiant and instructed.

The sword slave nodded his head and ran toward the customs immediately.

The Sword Valiant went ahead of them to buy two beast management bags from the Great Zhou Empire. The rest of them would wait for him patiently.

After the sword slave left, some people came to them shortly after, who intended to purchase the dragon eagles.

Zhou Xuanji would never agree to sell them. He rejected them forthrightly.

What came next were waves of buyers. Some felt pity, some tried to force him to sell, but Zhou Xuanji had his ways to send them away.

They were right beside the Great Zhou Empire, after all, so no one dared to excessively push him.

Gradually, the day turned dark.

Huang Lianxin took out some firewood to build a campfire.

Zhou Xuanji touched his face. “Have the scars on my face healed?” he asked.

If not for the fact that he attained Jade Skin Golden Bones, he might have to live with the scars all his life.

The eleven-year-old child had sparkling eyes and straight eyebrows, together with his jade-like face, he was very attractive to girls.

If he were to grow a few years older, he would surely become a handsome teenager.

It had to be acknowledged that Great Zhou’s royal bloodline was extraordinary indeed.

Little Jiang Xue waved her hand and answered, “Don’t ask about it anymore. I will not give up on you no matter how ugly you become.”

Huang Lianxin covered her mouth in laughter. She really enjoyed how Little Jiang Xue insulted Zhou Xuanji, which made her feel that her young master was no that high and lofty.

Zhou Xuanji rolled his eyes at her. “It’s not like I’m afraid that you will give up on me.”

He looked at Huang LIanxin and sighed, “When we were young, this little girl was so adorable. She held me in her arms with such care as though I was going to melt. But now, this rebellious girl is really not offendable.”

Little Jiang Xue glared at him and protested coquettishly, “What are you talking about!”

The fifteen-year-old girl was already looking gorgeous. With her long and delicate eyelashes, her bright eyes were beautifully attractive.

But overall, she still looked a little naive.

After another year or two, there might be some who would crave for her beauty. When that time came, it would surely be troublesome for Zhou Xuanji.

As she observed the two of them quarreling, Huang Lianxin wrapped her arms around her knees and laughed occasionally. She suddenly felt that it was not bad to live like this.

Before she met her young master, she was homeless and miserable, easily frightened. She had never lived so peacefully before.

“I’m going to be dead…” The small black snake laid on the firewood and said powerlessly.

What a pity. No one paid him any attention.

In the next few days, the Sword Valiant did not return. To search for a seller of beast management bags would require time, after all.

But Zhou Xuanji was recognized by people. Two dragon eagles and a childlike body. Isn’t he the legendary Sword God Zhou?

During those few days, many came forward to ask if he was Sword God Zhou.

And he forthrightly acknowledged. Since he was at the Great Zhou Empire, he was not afraid of the Demonic Inferno Sect.

Whenever he acknowledged his identity, the people who came forward became excited.

Ever since Sword God Zhou killed Ye E’guan, news about Sword God Zhou spread like wildfire.

Dual Sword Will!

Nine Swords!

All kinds of rumors pushed Sword God Zhou’s name to the peak. Of course, there was no consensus among the people on how powerful he really is.

Within the Great Zhou Empire, Inner Pellet cultivators were not considered top-tier.

But this did not obstruct the fantasizing of people in the lower strata.
