Chapter 688 (1/2)
Ye Lang's Swordsmanship (3)
“Who the hell are they, does anyone know?!”
Sir Ximen’s face grew darker. At this point, Ximen clan’s secret team had already arrived as reinforcements. And yet it was futile.
This time, the Ximen clan only deployed their secret members, not the surface ones. That was why outsiders thought there were only Wei and Liu clan members here, not Ximen.
If Ximen clan came bearing their name, then everything they’d done would be useless!
However, they didn’t know that there were already people watching. That was why deploying their secret squad wasn’t just useless, it exposed the clan’s secrets.
“We don’t know! There isn’t any information about these people, it’s as if they appeared out of thin air… Or perhaps we actually know them, we just don’t recognise these people…” said one person, frowning. But what he said was meaningless.
“Can you tell me something more useful?! They’re both so powerful, especially the kid, he’s terrifying! A person like that should be very famous!” said Sir Ximen.
“Yes, he should be famous but we can’t find anyone that fits… There’s one that kinda fits but it seems unlikely. He should not be here,” said the person, frowning.
“Who?” Sir Ximen and the rest shifted their attention here.
“About a month ago, an impressive swordsman appeared in Ai La’s capital. He defeated a thousand people alone and won an event there. He was only about twenty years old and used the same sword. His swordsmanship was said to be peculiar too,” said the man. As he watched Ye Lang, he thought the description fit.
“Then it should be him! It’s the same guy, how could you say it’s not? What’s his name?” said Sir Ximen coldly. There were so many similarities, it shouldn’t be just a coincidence.
“His family name is Ye, I heard he’s close with Fei from the Young family, and I heard his name is Ye Lang, like…” The person did not dare continue his sentence.
“Ye Lang?! It shouldn’t be, that’s Princess Anqi’s son… If that’s true, we’re done for!” Sir Ximen and the rest were astonished. Even if they had powerful families, they were still not qualified to provoke someone like Ye Lang.
Ye Lang already had a powerful family background, plus he was a neutral party who was powerful on his own. No one was willing to provoke him.
“It shouldn’t be, because that Ye Lang once performed in the streets and even slept out there… Princess Anqi’s son, Ye Lang, is a weird prodigal son, he wouldn’t do that,” frowned the man.
“Wouldn’t? What if it’s the same person?” said Sir Ximen solemnly.
“It shouldn’t be, we did not receive news that Ye Lang is here. Plus, if the one at Ai La was Ye Lang, there are many things that don’t make sense too. Why would Ye Lang be at Ai La? He isn’t related to the Ai La Empire at all!” The man shook his head.
“If that’s the case, then have you heard of Ye Lang being a swordsman? That Ai La guy had never-before-seen tactics. Even a Tian Heavenly fighter might not win that guy.” This was the most important question that made everyone confirm that this Ye Lang wasn’t the same guy.
“You make sense. He’s just an alchemist, I haven’t heard about his swordsmanship being this impressive! So this means that even if this is Ye Lang, he’s not the Ye family’s Ye Lang.” Sir Ximen relaxed.
