Chapter 60 – Sword Conference Ranking
Searching for Sword God Zhou?
“This person indeed has the power to fight you. You know his evaluation result for insightfulness in the Way of the Sword?” Zhou Chengxin smiled intently as he spoke.
Zhaocong Sword asked calmly, “Low tier of Black Grade?”
That was what he chose when he was doing the evaluation.
So, this was his guess. In his eyes, he might have already overestimated Sword God Zhou.
Zhou Chengxin shook his head while smiling, and Zhaocong Sword knitted his brow.
“Black Grade, top tier,” he said.
Zhaocong Sword’s pupils contracted suddenly. He took a step forward, “Is this true?” he asked.
He could hardly make it for the low tier sword technique of the Black Grade, and the top tier…
It was already hard enough to merely memorize the complicated moves.
Zhou Chengxin nodded and said, “I’m the one who handed his white jade token to Xie Wuyou personally.”
Zhaocong Sword remained silent.
Zhou Chengxin looked at him and thought in his heart, I wonder who is stronger, him or Sword God Zhou?
All of a sudden, Zhaocong Sword turned and left.
Zhou Chengxin shook his head and smiled as he looked at the far-famed sword cultivator disappear in the crowd.
He walked to an old tree by the street side, and a man dressed in black appeared behind him suddenly.
The face of the man in black was half-covered. Only his eyes were revealed, but under the tree’s shade, one could not even see his eyes clearly.
Zhou Chengxin back faced him and said, “Go and find out where Sword God Zhou is staying. If the Yang Clan of Luoyang City dare to trouble him, get someone to warn Official Yang.”
“Okay!”
The man in black responded with a low voice and disappeared.
…
As dusk drew close, Zhou Xuanji and his companions came to Zhang Tianjian’s residence in Swordsman City.
The residence was massive. There were three courts, a dozen guest rooms, and a garden at the center.
Zhang Rutan, another son of Zhang Tianjian, was residing here with over thirty slaves.
Zhang Rutan was thrilled when he heard that Sword God Zhou was coming.
Zhang Tianjian’s family loved the Way of the Sword. Within Great Zhou’s borders, there were not many sword cultivators whose fame was widespread.
Sword God Zhou’s appearance out of nowhere was rather dramatic. After Zhang Rutan heard all sorts of rumors about him, together with Zhang Ruyu’s letters, he naturally admired the Sword God.
Along the way, Zhang Rutan asked ceaselessly in excitement.
“Big Brother, is this true? Sword God Zhou slapped Yang Che’s face, and that the seventh prince hosted Sir Zhou personally?”
Zhang Rutan asked Zhang Ruyu. He did not dare to talk to Zhou Xuanji face to face.
Zhang Ruyu stared at him and said in frustration, “How many times are you going to ask these questions? Sir Sword God Zhou is behind us. Don’t make a fool of yourself.”
At this, Zhang Rutan glanced back at Zhou Xuanji in embarrassment and continued leading the way.
Northern Valiant Sword stayed in a hut while Huang Lianxin stayed in another.
Zhou Xuanji and Little Jiang Xue still stayed in the same room. The girl seemed to have no embarrassment at all and could not bear to live him.
Other than Green River Village, she rarely visited places that were densely populated after all. Not staying with Zhou Xuanji would make her afraid.
The three guestrooms were connected together so they can watch over one another.
That night, Zhang Tianjian held a feast for Zhou Xuanji and his companions.
After drinking three rounds of wine, Zhang Tianjian sighed, “Sir, I doubted you initially, because you were too legendary after all, you took such a short time to become famous. Now, I really admire you! I’m totally convinced! ”
Northern Valiant Sword rolled his eyes.
How shameless! Zhang Tianjian bootlicked perfectly and took the opportunity to apologize.
How come he did not realize that his friend was such a person?
In contrast to Zhang Tianjian, Zhang Ruyu and his brother were surpassing their father in every bootlicking way. They flattered and buttered Zhou Xuanji up extravagantly.
Zhou Xuanji smiled and did not take to heart their flatter.
But, the three persons took turns to raise toasts to him.
Do they really think that I’m young?
In my previous life, I was a prince of the drink stall!
And this life, I have the cultivation of Englitening Stage, you think I will get drunk?
