The moustache man fell into a short moment of daze. In the next moment, he thought of how he was being treated by a blind man like this and fury surged in his drunken state. He stood up with a red face and scolded Fang Xingjian, “What are you going on about crazily?”

The words had just come out from his mouth when, in a blur, Fang Xingjian had already appeared before him and stomped down on his chest, making him fall to the ground.

The moustache man wanted to retaliate and one of his hands reached out to the military saber behind his back. However, with a sweep of his fingers, Fang Xingjian had already sent out streams of sword Qis. He slashed at the twenty-one weak points in the moustache man’s body and created bloodied wounds all over, causing him to collapse.

He was only at the first transition and was, at most, comparable to a senior instructor in the academy, far from Fang Xingjian’s level. Moreover, after drinking, his lines of thought had slowed down and his were movements unstable. There was no way he would be a match for Fang Xingjian. Before the Unparalleled Sword Intent, he was filled with flaws all over.

Moreover, Fang Xingjian’s speed was truly too fast. No one present had managed to react to Fang Xingjian’s movements before the moustache man fell, covered in blood.

It was only then that the ponytail guy managed to react. He stood up and was just about to draw his sword when Fang Xingjian activated his Ether Sword Ripples with a twitch of his eyebrows and slashed out through the space.

The ponytail guy had just stood up, but he saw that all of his clothes had already burst open explosively. Even the longsword he had been reaching for had landed in Fang Xingjian’s hands.

Fang Xingjian shook his head to the ponytail guy, an obvious sign of warning.

The ponytail guy looked dazedly at Fang Xingjian who still had his foot on the moustache man. He gulped, but could not summon any will to continue to go against Fang Xingjian anymore.

Fang Xingjian exerted some pressure on his foot, causing the moustache man to let out a terrible scream. More fresh blood flowed out from his wounds.

Fang Xingjian spoke out, “My Seism Steel, where are they?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about!” The moustache man shouted, “You’ve attacked an official Knight, assaulted a soldier of the Empire! You’re done for!”

“You think you can be considered a soldier? I don’t recall seeing you when I was killing Mumukeya at Krelim Coast.” As he said that, he tapped his finger sword a few times. Streams of sword Qis, from the Supreme Mistwind Sword, shot out like they were from a machine gun and tore the moustache man’s clothes into shreds, leaving many tiny wounds all over his body.

A hint of terror flashed across the moustache man’s face as he had the feeling that each inch of his skin had a blade held against it.

Fang Xingjian said calmly, “I’ll ask one more time. Where’s my Seism Steel? Even if I am to chop off one of your arms now, when I appear before Kilot from the Western Garrison, do you think that they’ll blame me?”

The moustache man immediately broke down and he spoke in a soft voice, “The Seism Steel has already been sold by us.”

“To whom?”

“Versailles. They were sold to the Versailles Clan, the owner of this tavern.”

Fang Xingjian pat the moustache man’s face and said in a low voice, “If I find out that you’ve lied…”

“I swear that I didn’t!” The moustache man said dejectedly, “If you don’t believe me, you can ask the steward here.”

Fang Xingjian turned toward that steward and appeared before him with one step.

That steward stood up and turned away, wanting to make his escape. However, he found that he had walked straight into Fang Xingjian.

“Who did they sell the Seism Steel to?”

The steward’s expression was grim as he looked at Fang Xingjian who had his eyes closed. “Sir, this is not something you can meddle in.”

“Oh? Not something I can meddle in?”
