98 Quicksword Xiao Shan (1/2)
Under the gazes of the sect members of Mountain Range Sect, Heartless Man took two steps forward with a dark expression. He stared at the cold man who stood arrogantly thirty-two feet away.
”Sir, you invaded Mountain Range Sect's temporary encampment, killed dozens of my sect members and one hall chief, so don't you want us to remember your name?”
”Xiao Shan!”
The cold man's expression did not change. Even if he faced around twenty Blessed Realm players from Mountain Range Sect, he still did not show a hint of fear. He was so calm and indifferent that he did not look like a human.
”Xiao Shan, what a man you are.”
Heartless Man acted incredibly calm. After all, he was not a useless person. He WAS the man who had become the sect master of Mountain Range Sect, suppressed and controlled two other sects, and even gathered them all by his side.
His sagacious nature and abilities were famous in Xuzhou.
Sect Master Heartless Man had not only shown outstanding planning when he merged the three sects into one, his methods were also able to suppress and control the two current vice sect masters! His act of setting up their encampment and all the subsequent plans for their operations was through great consideration and ample preparation. The area around the fortress was filled with obvious and hidden sentries from Mountain Range Sect. There were layers of defenses placed in the stronghold, and while he did not dare claim that they had iron defense, it was definitely tight.
Also, there were more than one hundred archers stationed around the fortress. Forget a powerful Blessed Realm player attacking them, even if they faced a strong attack from an entire sect, they might not be able to break down the gate without alerting the higher ups of Mountain Range Sect and slaughtering their way until they reached where Xiao Shan currently was.
Xiao Shan's abilities could only be described as astonishing!
Hence, when he saw the scene before him, Heartless Man knew that Xiao Shan came with ill intentions, and he began making calculations.
He waved his hand and dismissed the archers who had appeared silently around the area. Heartless Man slowed down his talking speed and said with abnormal calm, ”Deer Swordsman is a sect elder in our sect. If he has done something wrong and offended you, then this humble person will apologize on his behalf. But before you attack, could you tell us your reason so that we know what is going on?”
”Sect master!”
Deer Swordsman seemed to have remembered something. Right when he wanted to speak, Heartless Man raised his hand and stopped him. He still had that indifferent look on his face while staring at Xiao Shan.
The other people also had their gazes trained on him at that moment!
Xiao Shan turned his head away and cast a glance at the Mountain Range Sect members in the archer towers. He let out a barely audible snort. ”Three people were killed by Sect Elder Deer Swordsman on the Horse on Road Bridge in Lightning Will Mountain. They were all my junior brothers and sisters…”
Heartless Man said nothing and just frowned.
Deer Swordsman took the opportune moment to explain himself. ”I did indeed take on the task over there and attacked the carriage carrying the tribute, but he wasn't inside.”
”Your people acted very quickly. I was scouting the road in front. When I returned, the tribute was gone, and my party had died. I chased after your tracks until I reached Xuzhou where I learned of the news of your sect moving into the mountains so…” When he said this, Xiao Shan slowly drew out the iron sword that seemed as if it did not even have a hilt, and he pointed it at Deer Swordsman, who stood in the crowd. ”I am here to collect a debt.”
”Hmph! That'll depend on whether you have the ability to collect it!”
A man moved out of the crowd. Before Heartless Man could even give him an order, he already jumped down.
”Stop!” Heartless Man's expression changed drastically. He quickly cried out for him to stop and demanded from Xiao Shan, ”I have nothing to say, since we killed them. How do you intend to collect the debt?”
”Simple.” Xiao Shan ignored the Blessed Realm player glaring at him. His voice was as indifferent, cold, and light as ever. ”Have the murderers stand out, and all of them must die under my sword thrice.”
When he finished speaking, the expressions of the people in Mountain Range Sect changed!Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
The hall chief who was the closest to Xiao Shan looked like he had heard the most ludicrous joke in history. He laughed long and hard before he said, ”What a load of bull! Kill them thrice? Fine! I joined the operation at that time as well. If you have the ability to do so— Arg!”
Before he even finished speaking, Xiao Shan had already drawn his sword back. There was a trace of blood on his hiltless iron sword. One drop, two drops…
Thud!
Heartless Man only noticed that the hall leader had his throat slit and died with his eyes open when the man fell to the ground. Even though the distance between them was around seven feet, no one had seen how Xiao Shan had approached or attacked him just then.
But Xiao Shan looked as if he had done something very insignificant.
He cast an indifferent glance at the corpse on the ground.
