Chapter 726 - Old Driver White (2/2)
Wait, they are looking at the sky…? This isn’t a good sign! Song Shuhang had a bad feeling. In the next moment, both he and Su Clan’s Sixteen likewise raised their heads and looked at the sky.
Immediately after, the duo saw a flying sword streaking across the sky at high speed. The person controlling the flying sword was a celestial being with long hair that draped over his shoulders; his elegance was out of this world. At this time, he was making a hand seal with both hands, seemingly in the middle of using a flying technique. Soon after, the sword light transformed into a lifelike flood dragon, both fast and agile.
The other people riding on the flying sword were a pair of male and female scholars, respectively of the Third Stage and Second Stage Realm. The senior brother had a square-shaped face, and the junior sister a cute steam bun-like face.
At this time, their square and steamed bun-shaped faces were pale, their lips blue, and both legs somewhat trembling.
The reason for these symptoms was the terrific speed of the flood dragon-shaped sword light.
There were many cultivators in the airs.p.a.ce of the White Cloud City riding their swords, sabers, and other flight-type treasures… and every one of them had been forced to respect the speed limit of 100 km/h so as to avoid cras.h.i.+ng into each other.
But, the speed of this flood dragon-shaped sword light had surpa.s.sed the speed of sound by several times already. It was so fast that it looked as though it was teleporting from place to place while making whizzing noises. It was taking advantage of each gap it could find to continually overtake the cultivators ahead that were flying in the same direction… the speed stat of the flying sword had been surely maxed.
The speed was so quick that the two pa.s.sengers felt that their heart was about to stop.
In the blink of an eye, the flood dragon-shaped sword light had disappeared toward a distant place.
“…” Song Shuhang.
“…” Su Clan’s Sixteen.
“That person just now was Senior White, right?” Song Shuhang asked.
Su Clan’s Sixteen nodded… that was indeed Senior White.
Song Shuhang facepalmed, and said, “As expected… I knew that something bad was going to happen.”
There was no way an old driver like Senior White was going to decrease his speed while working for hire inside the city.
At this time, Song Shuhang could only silently pray that Senior White wouldn’t get into an accident due to the excessive speed of his flying sword and turn the nearby fellow daoists into meat skewers.
Song Shuhang sighed, and said, “Let’s go. Let’s stroll around the streets.”
Su Clan’s Sixteen gently smiled.
But, right at this time, that sword light in the sky whizzed back… in the next moment, Venerable White landed beside Song Shuhang.
“Oh, Shuhang. You are finally awake.” Senior White stretched out his hand and waved at Song Shuhang.
“I just woke up. Senior White, you were exceeding the speed limit earlier! Don’t you remember what that person at the entrance said when we were about to enter the city? The flying speed limit inside the White Cloud City is 100 km/h so as to avoid people cras.h.i.+ng into each other,” Song Shuhang said.
“Shuhang, I already knew that you were going to complain about this matter.” Venerable White brightly smiled, and said, “You don’t need to worry about it anymore. I especially inquired about it and discovered that the punishment for exceeding the speed limit once was a spirit stone of the Third Stage rank. Therefore, I took out a lump of spirit stones, and now I’m settled for the next thousand or so infractions. See, you don’t need to worry about me anymore!”
“…” Song Shuhang.
This was a big mistake on the part of the White Cloud Academy! The punishment of one infraction turned out to be only a spirit stone of the Third Stage rank. Therefore, Venerable White could casually take out a spirit stone of the Sixth Stage or above to settle the matter. A spirit stone of the Sixth Stage was enough to make up for around a thousand infractions. As such, he could have all the fun he wanted!
“Anyway, I don’t have time to chat now. I need to pick up my clients.” After he had said this much, Venerable White jumped upward and landed next to five scholars.
“Was it you guys that called for a flying sword with the ‘Whizzing Flying Sword App’? I’ll take care of all of you alone!” Venerable White said heroically.
The faces of the five young scholars immediately turned pale.
In the next moment, they bowed to Venerable White, preparing to politely reject his offer. Scholars were really fussy about etiquette. No matter how scared they were at this time, they couldn’t lack manners in front of this senior.
But, before they could even open their mouths and speak, Venerable White flicked the sleeve of his robe and pulled the five young scholars on the sword light.
In the next moment, he made a hand seal, and the sword light transformed into a huge roc, shooting up in the sky.
The sword light was extremely fast as it whizzed high up in the sky. One single sword light to terrorize the whole city!
Then, just like before, the sword light found every gap it could, and overtook the flying swords of the cultivators ahead. It was so fast that it looked as though it was teleporting.
After teleporting for several times, it had already disappeared from the field of vision of the onlookers.
Only the screams of the five young scholars were left…
The five young scholars screamed without stopping. They weren’t cultivators for nothing. They had strong lungs, and could scream for a long time without their voices going down.
“…” Su Clan’s Sixteen.
Song Shuhang faintly sighed, and said, “I wonder how many cultivators in the White Cloud City will start suffering from acrophobia in a few days from now on?”
Who knew, perhaps that flying sword with railing attached to it he was planning to create would be in very high demand here in the White Cloud City in the future?
Should he seize this opportunity and invest money in this business in the White Cloud City, opening a shop to install railing on flying swords?
Something like a removable flying sword railing guard wasn’t bad, either. The clients could order the railing according to the size of their flying swords. Well then, perhaps such a business would really flourish in this place?
