Chapter 107: 107 You are brave!
Translator: 549690339
On the mountaintop of the back hill, Liu Zhe sat stiffly on a rock, holding the treasured sword gifted to him by his master while staring intently ahead, engaged in deep thought.
He had maintained this posture for a very long time.
Ever since he was defeated by Gu Yang, he returned home to the Liu family and remained in this state.
He had been contemplating how to break Gu Yang’s saber technique.
In his mind, he repeatedly recalled every detail of their previous conflict.
Boom!
He seemed to be transported back to an eastern sea island, where towering waves filled his vision and his master’s teachings rang in his ears again.
In that moment, Gu Yang’s saber technique overlapped with the massive waves before him.
Clang!
For the first time in two months, Liu Zhe unsheathed his sword, the blade slicing through the waves and breaking Gu Yang’s technique!
He opened his eyes and let out a resounding howl, expressing his exhilaration.
He had finally broken Gu Yang’s saber technique!
He managed to hone the “A sword breaks through a thousand waves” sword technique to a new level, reaching the second stage.
When Liu Zhe opened his eyes, he saw a man collapsed on the ground, his face full of terror. It was Fifth Uncle.
He gently sheathed his sword, asking, “What happened?”
The man rushed to respond, “Somebody has launched an attack. Your father sent me to inform you to leave Liu Mansion and return to the Eastern Sea immediately.”
Liu Zhe, being as smart as he is, immediately figured that Gu Yang must have come for him.
“Hahaha…” He laughed heartily. “I was worrying about where to find him, yet he came to me.”
“Gu—Yang!” Liu Zhe shouted, his voice full of battle intent, an open challenge to his opponent.
With a swoosh, Liu Zhe had disappeared from sight.
Seeing him moving in the direction of the Liu Mansion, the middle-aged man’s face turned pale. This was not good!
But there was no way he could catch up with Liu Zhe’s swift pace. His complexion changed many times before he finally made his move—running off in the opposite direction of Liu’s Mansion.
…
Inside the Liu Mansion, many people had heard that someone was causing trouble and were filled with righteous indignation, rushing to the main gate.
Then, they saw the corpse of a third uncle lying on the ground. Everyone was furious.
Who dares to commit murder in the Liu family?
Over the years, it’s always been the Liu family doing the killing. When had anyone ever attacked them directly?
When they heard the man outside who came to cause trouble mention that he wanted to fight with Liu Zhe, the gambling stake was all of the Liu family’s assets—all of the Liu family present fell eerily silent.
Finally, they realized who the man was.
The number-one ranked Gu Yang on the Hidden Dragon List, a First-Rank power!
This was a First-Rank power—their Liu family’s pride and joy, the prototype Qilin, had been defeated by him.
But what he wanted was all the Liu family’s assets? This was plain bullying!
“We, the Liu family, are willing to accept a lost bet. I will gather all the Liu family disciples to leave Ba County within two days, without taking any assets with us.”
When they heard the family leader’s words, they could hardly believe their ears.
Would they just hand over the Liu family’s hundred-year-old foundation just like that?
The crowd boiled with anger, frustration, and resistance, but in respect to the family leader’s authority as well as the invincible prestige of the enemy, they dared not voice their disagreement.
At this moment, a furious roar like thunder sounded from the back hill.
“Gu—Yang!”
It was Liu Zhe!
He had finally come out.
The Liu family’s estate was instantly filled with cheering.
Their savior had finally arrived.
But only Liu Hai and Liu Yang’s faces turned deathly white as fear gripped them. As they were about to speak and warn him, they felt an overwhelming aura. It pressed on them until they couldn’t move or speak.
They saw a smug smile spread across Gu Yang’s face.
The two seasoned old men, who had experienced countless storms, now felt a chill creeping into their hands and feet, their hearts filled with dread.
During Liu Zhe’s seclusion, they had strictly forbidden anyone from disturbing him.
That was why he wasn’t aware that Gu Yang had broken through to First Rank.
If he attacked Gu Yang, the consequences were beyond their imagination.
As Liu Zhe appeared before them, Liu Yang’s face turned blood-red. Breaking free from the invisible Gang Qi constraint, he mustered all his strength to roar, “Zhe, run…”
