Chapter 796 (1/2)
In the hall of the demon hunter guild, rows of tall stone pillars stand towering.
These stone pillars need at least six people to hold together, and even reach a height of 15 meters. On the top of each stone pillar, a stone statue of a person is carved.
These statues are different. What's strange is that the clothes carved by the statues seem to exist at all times, at home and abroad, men, women, old and young.
Only those who know the inside story will know that these statues are demon hunters who have made great contributions in the history of the demon hunter guild. Each of the predecessors of these statues is a powerful and respected demon hunter.
However, at the end of this row of stone pillars, there has always been an old man covered with dust sitting on it motionless.
A long sword with the same dust was lying across the old man's knee, equally silent.
The strangest thing is that the old man doesn't look like a stone statue, but more like a real person.
Because few stone statues can be carved so lifelike, but people are always uncertain whether it is a stone statue or not.
”The old man on the pillar is a statue, not a real person?”
A demon hunter who had joined the demon hunter guild for more than ten years couldn't help asking.
Whenever he came to the hall of the demon hunter guild to do business, he couldn't help looking at the old man on the high column. But for more than ten years, the old man has been sitting on it, but he has never moved.
A living person, a normal person, has no reason to sit motionless on a pillar for so long.
His companion shook his head and said:
”It's probably a statue. When my father was engaged in the business of demon hunter, the statue was already on the column. I heard it was also called a sword saint. But the statue is ugly enough! I don't know what people put him on top for? ”
”Forget it, forget him. Now Cain, the ancestor of the blood clan, has risen and ordered the blood clan to look everywhere for the book of nod lost in the world in order to revive the demon Lilith. This matter has attracted the attention of our president! Cain's resurrection itself is very serious. If Cain succeeds in resurrecting Lilith, the world doesn't know what disaster will come! ”
”Yes! The world is getting more and more restless. I just heard that Zhang Yi, the strongest man in the eastern world, appeared in the West today, and fought with Nicholas, the blood emperor, in the capital of the United Kingdom. Finally, Nicholas, who has the immortal blood devil, was burned alive. This matter has spread all over the west, and our president is still waiting for us to go to the meeting! ”
The two demon hunters looked dignified. As they spoke, they walked slowly towards the conference hall.
In the demon hunter hall, the demon hunters left one after another and went to the conference room, which suddenly became quiet and empty.
At this time, the old man sitting high on the column suddenly opened his eyes that had not been opened for decades.
As soon as the old man's eyes opened, they immediately looked like two cold stars shining in the hall where the light was not bright enough. Among them, they were very bright, awe inspiring and fierce!
Breathing also returned to him at this moment. I saw that the dust in his nostrils was immediately blown up by the air flow generated by breathing.
The mouth of his long dusty beard, which had not been opened for decades, slowly wriggled.
”The strongest man in the Oriental world... Zhang Yi... I remember you!”
The old man's blue eyes seemed to fall into some kind of meditation and memory:
”Decades ago... Decades ago? I saw a duel video from the East. It was the duel of the two strongest swordsmen in the eastern world at that time! Zhang Yi, the leader of Tianyong City, fought against Ximen Tianhao! After watching the video, I saw the strongest swordsmanship in the East for the first time, which made me realize in an instant, broke through the bottleneck for many years, and became a swordsman! So far, I am invincible in the western world! ”
The old man's breath vibrated when he said this.
His whole body was covered with decades of dust, which was immediately blown away by his strong breath.
The long sword across his knee was suddenly pulled out by him.
”Qiang!!!”
With a clear sound, a cold light suddenly diffused from the scabbard like bright moon and autumn water, illuminating the whole time and space.
Holding a long sword, the old man looked at the sword and said:
”For decades, I have long wanted to compete with Zhang Yi, the strongest swordsman in the Oriental world, and compete with the East and the West! Once, I thought I wouldn't have this chance in this life. Now that Zhang Yi has come to the western world, I won't miss this opportunity! ”
At this point, the old man fiercely put the long sword into the scabbard.
Then he jumped off the high stone pillar.
However, before he landed, he turned into a sharp sword light and flew out of the hall of the demon hunter guild.
Such a noise naturally alerted many powerful people in the demon hunter guild.
The first person to arrive at the scene was the president of the demon hunter guild. He stared at the empty position at the top of the stone pillar and couldn't help looking excited.
A strong man who arrived later couldn't help asking:
”President! Just now I felt a sharp sword. Who broke into our demon hunter guild? ”
The president said excitedly:
”Swordsman! It's the swordsman! For decades, there have been peerless strong men worthy of the sword master's hand in the world, so the sword master just went out! It's the sword saint! ”
The strong people around are full of doubts. Obviously, for most young people, they have never heard of the reputation of the sword saint who traversed the western world decades ago.
