Chapter 11 Blade! (2/2)

The customers in the hall spiraled into regret, why did they come here for their meals and lodgings. The stranger released a cane knife from the saddle behind his back, golden and shining, it was dragged on the bluestone flooring, causing sparks to fly out.

The approaching stranger paused at a five-step distance from the man in the green robe.

The man in the green robe slowly spoke, ”I gave the Green Bamboo Sect three days, and they searched for you, the Golden Blade King, to come for your demise, they really do not take me seriously.”

There are some people in Jianghu who were addressed by many according to their distinguishable features.

This big, tall, cane knife dragging person was known as the Golden Blade King.

Rumors had it that he was born with superhuman strength, yet he also has a pair of skillful hands, he once used the cane knife of his to carve a beautiful artwork of the mountains and rivers on a piece of tofu.

He definitely lived up the name of Golden Blade King.

”I have heard of your title, Deity Vanquishing Sword, you have even murdered your own mentor for a codex of the sword, it is said that a senior fellow apprentice, the Daoist priest Chong Lingxiao had once hunted for you for five years, forcing you to flee to the sandy Gobi desert, why do you dare returning now?” The Golden Blade King's brows were raised as he sneered.

”Naturally I came back to kill him.” While he answered, he lifted his head and focused on an area of the roof.

”I'm afraid that you won't be able to wait until that moment.” The ceiling burst open, ceiling tiles shattered all over the floor, the one appearing, however, was a short and skinny old man with a pair of silver hooks in his hands.

He descended extremely lightly, floating down like a piece of feather.

The young beggar was shocked by this scenario, the man in the green robe patted him on his shoulder, and ordered. ”Eat your meal.”

Shen Lian remained composed while dealing with this circumstance, it did not matter whether it was the Golden Blade King, the petite old man or the man in the green, they were far from ordinary people and all of them had the same dangerous air about them.

They all possessed extraordinary strengths.

He was not afraid, rather, he was glad.

This was surely not an ordinary world, not only was there martial art exercises for spiritual cultivation, there were also accessions to stimulate body strength.

Based on their speaking tone, plus the mention of the 'codex of the sword' just now and their behavior in dealing with matters, everything was similar to the people of Jianghu in the Wuxia novel that he had read back then.

The little beggar began eating after being ordered by the man in the green robe, whether it was him being dense or him being famished, the little kid could really eat.

Shen Lian thought internally that not only could this kid really eat a lot, he was also considered lucky, seeing how the man in the green robe was already considered as a well-educated person, he would be treated really nicely.

In the Wuxia novels back then, this was a template used for the main character.

Even though Shen Lian thought this was so, however, regardless whether it was the Golden Blade King or the old man, no one really took him seriously.

Admittedly they were the kind of people who were very confident, no matter who it was they had to duel against each other to know the rank of where they stand, it also depended on who they were up against.

Whether it was his age or his manners, Shen Lian was not a threat to them. Only the man in the green robe somewhat paid some attention towards Shen Lian.

Although, most of his focus was still on the Golden Blade King and the petite old man.

They were people who were not with unearned reputation. Even if he was really arrogant, he would not be careless.

The man in the green robe was seated. Even though it looked as though he was being passive, the actual situation was that he was halting actions with his passiveness. He would not have done so if his martial art skills were not profound enough and him not having the courage.

It was because of this that the Golden Blade King did not make his move to kill him.

This person was ruthless, his martial art skills were high, and he was difficult to deal with if it was not for the sake of getting that item that he took from the Green Bamboo Sect, it was impossible for him to make a move.

The Green Bamboo Sect still thought that he was risking it all for some money and connections, it was just absolutely laughable. The Golden Blade King was already in his forties, he had far passed the time of pursuing worldly wealth and fame, what truly captivated him was achieving a higher state, a longer lifespan.
