In the beginning, he was ranked alongside An Shigeng as a spoiled brat.

I just saw that you were all quite innocent, being hunted down by the entire martial arts world, and might even end up falling into the demonic path.

Moreover, that peerless sword is quite a pity; if it weren't salvaged, it could truly become a terrifying, invincible demonic sword.

Upon hearing this, all three of them looked solemn.

Falling into the demonic path? A peerless demonic sword?

These are not what they want, and what is the girl's purpose in saying this?

"May I ask what brings you here, young lady?"

"My purpose? It's simply to show you three solutions since you're innocent."

Three methods!

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at the girl in shock, and then began to have doubts.

After all, they were strangers, and given that the girl was carrying a valuable treasure, one couldn't help but suspect her motives.

"The first option is to discard the sword. Once the sword is gone, all the trouble will naturally disappear as well."

However, you will definitely not agree to this method, especially given Bu Jingyun's current state, which shows that he regards the sword as his life.

The second method is to sharpen the sword and unleash the power of its essence.

Black Frost is the coldest of things, so the swords forged from it are also the coldest of swords; to sharpen them, one needs the hottest of things.

This extremely hot substance has no fixed form. In Bu Jingyun's current state, the best extremely hot substance would be the blood or tears of his beloved, using the power of love to dissolve the sword's demonic nature!

"The hottest thing? The blood and tears of a lover?"

Upon hearing this, everyone exchanged bewildered glances, never expecting that this peerless divine sword would possess such power even before it had been sharpened.

"I wonder if the young lady's third method is?"

"Merit Enhancement!"

The power of merit is used to seal the sword's demonic nature and to enhance the sword energy of the peerless divine sword itself.

In this way, not only will the power of the divine sword increase greatly, but it may even reach the level of an unparalleled divine sword, thus naturally avoiding all disasters.

However, you have no bargaining chips. Who would like to step in?

Chapter 900 The Storm Arrives at Ghost Street

"Qin Shuang!"

On Peach Blossom Island, Zhang Xiaoshan received the message from Yi Zheng Shenren and frowned.

In the eyes of Zhang Yuan, Huang Rong, and others, the young girl in her prime should find a suitable marriage partner.

But in Zhang Xiaoshan's eyes, the young girl, barely in her early twenties, was only a freshman or sophomore in college in the future. In addition, the Longevity Formula and the Nine Yin Divine Skill both had the effect of preserving youth and longevity, so she could not be considered an older single woman in Zhang Yuan's eyes at all.

Moreover, given the Zhang family's status in Kyushu, the young girl has no trouble getting married.

At this moment, the little girl found someone she liked, and Zhang Xiaoshan felt as if his precious little cotton-padded jacket had been stolen.

"Does the young master not like Qin Shuang?"

Liu Sheng Piaoxu also saw the message and was well aware of his fellow disciples' recent activity.

Strictly speaking, apart from Bu Jingyun being extremely bloodthirsty, the other two brothers are quite good.

Qin Shuang only lost one hand.

"No, Qin Shuang is a good match for Jun'er. If they can be together, I wouldn't object."

"It's just something related to wind and clouds; this little girl's abilities aren't enough to handle it."

Zhang Xiaoshan sighed. His little darling's choice was indeed wise.

However, Qin Shuang is disabled and has connections to the wind and clouds, so she is bound to face many hardships in the future. The little girl is not weak, even extremely strong, but it will be difficult for her to handle the situation.

Moreover, Qin Shuang already has someone she loves, and he doesn't want his daughter to pursue a disabled man.

If Zhang Xiaoshan hadn't been a ruthless person, he might have already crippled Qin Shuang.

"What does the young master mean?"

"I prefer to call this person a 'cursed star descended upon the world'!"

The calamities of Fengyun are not something that can be resolved so easily. It is possible that after Zhang Xiaoshan kills Di Shitian, another Da Fantian will appear.

Therefore, Zhang Xiaoshan has no intention of interfering in Fengyun's affairs.

The Zhang family has gone into seclusion, and they will have to give up Peach Blossom Island in the future. This is their villa, and it will inevitably become the target of many people in the future.

Zhang Xiaoshan absolutely does not allow any loopholes in his work.

As for the East China Sea base?

Although many people know about it, Zhang Xiaoshan usually erases most of the traces before he leaves.

Neither Qiu Long nor the monk Jue Wu from Nanyang would betray the Zhang family. After their deaths, virtually no one in Nanyang knew the exact location of the Zhang family's base.

Although Zhang Xiaoshan wouldn't be considered a great judge of character, he still had a good eye for people. Moreover, now all the goods from Southeast Asia were transported to Yingcheng in Yizhou before being transferred to Zhang's base, which more than doubled the secrecy involved.

In addition to the Zhang family's internal defenses, there were snow eagles, gyrfalcons, and hang gliders in the sky; white dolphins and mechanical Xuanwu (a type of mythical beast) in the sea; and thousands of Hongyi cannons in the middle could cover a thirty-mile stretch of sea...

It can penetrate everywhere, both in the sky and on the ground.

Even if the exact location of the Zhang family is known, it's impossible to break through their defenses without collusion from within.

This is ten times more terrifying than the defenses of the Mo Family's Mechanical City.

···

"This is the Ghost Street of Jiangnan. Senior Brother, aren't we going to Peach Blossom Island? Why are we here?"

"To get to Peach Blossom Island, you must first visit Ghost Street!"

Just like you have to present a visiting card before you go to visit someone, Peach Blossom Island is someone's private territory. If we want to go there, we have to inform the King of Hell of Ghost Street in advance and wait for his notification.

Even grandmasters must act this way; otherwise, setting foot on Peach Blossom Island lightly will inevitably make them appear as enemies!

Qin Shuang looked at the two of them and slowly began to explain, while also glancing at the malicious underworld figures around them, and added:

"Moreover, there are too many people watching us, and it's even more dangerous at sea."

"The King of Hell is the ruler of Ghost Street; no one in Ghost Street dares to harm us. We can take the Ghost Street boat to Peach Blossom Island, which is much safer than going on our own."

"King Yama, the Ghost King!"

Upon hearing this, Bu Jingyun couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Ghost Street is a criminal organization that spans the entire Kyushu region, and can be considered the true supreme authority in the underworld.

However, Ghost Street does not participate in the struggle for supremacy; it merely establishes black markets in various cities. Legend has it that Ghost Street in Jiangnan alone earns over ten million gold coins a year.

The Ghost King, who rules Ghost Street, is even more terrifying in strength, and has been one of the top three for forty years.

"Are you three the young heroes Qin Shuang, Bu Jingyun, and Nie Feng?"

A faint, eerie voice rang in the ears of the three.

Everyone looked at the newcomer, who turned out to be a young man wearing a judge's mask.

He is described as a young man because of his robust and upright physique, and his bright and fierce tiger eyes, which are full of vitality.

"Who is your Excellency?"

"Ghost Judge!"

Ghost judge?

People in Ghost Street wear masks, but someone who can appear in Ghost Street under the name of the Judge must be no ordinary person.

And this judge is also the successor of the Ghost King Yama.

Thirty years is enough time for Ghost Yama to train a qualified successor, so he directly selected a young man to train.

Moreover, the judge is one of the best among the Zhang family's elite warriors, and there is no doubt about his loyalty.

"The King of Hell already knew your purpose. Follow me!"

Seeing the judge step forward, a hint of fear flashed in the eyes of everyone in Ghost Street.

During this period, the Ghost Judge has eliminated quite a few people; his strength is beyond doubt. In fact, to some extent, the Ghost Judge is even more ruthless than the Ghost Yama.

The Ghost King Yama maintains the stability of Ghost Street, while the Ghost Judge maintains the rule of the Zhang family.

Following the figure of the Ghost Judge, the group arrived at the Heavenly Mystery Tower, which completely dispelled Qin Shuang's doubts.

Entering the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, the magnificent hall, resembling a den of lavish spending, opened the eyes of the three.

However, they did not believe that all the people who came here to spend money were bloated and snobbish. In fact, many of them were underworld bosses they knew, each one ruthless and vicious.

But at this moment, they only glanced at them, gave the Ghost Judge a wary look, and then went about their own business.

"please!"

The three entered the upper-level private room, where they found a man wearing a Yama mask waiting for them.

"Junior Qin Shuang (Nie Feng) pays respects to King Yama!"

"Qin Shuang, the wise man of the World Society, I believe you have already guessed the young lady's identity."

"Young Miss is kind-hearted, since you 827 led me here. Otherwise, you wouldn't be qualified to see the young master."

The three men reacted differently upon hearing this.

Qin Shuang's radiant smile, Bu Jingyun's dissatisfaction, and Nie Feng's sense of relief.

After all, how could they not know about Zhang Xiaoshan's existence?

Ghost Yama, merely a subordinate, is the ruler of Ghost Street; his eldest son, Zhang Sheng, is even more remarkable, the Supreme Ruler of the Nine Provinces, and rumored to possess unfathomable strength.

He was once the number one on the Black List. If he hadn't failed to challenge the masters on the Heaven List, he probably would have entered the Heaven List long ago.

"When shall we depart?"

"The young master will come over tomorrow morning. You don't need to go to Peach Blossom Island. His murderous aura is too strong and will pollute the island."

"And your matter is very simple; the young master is merely reinforcing two swords."

"Strengthen the two swords?"

No, we came here for Senior Brother Yun's peerless sword, I am not here for that...

"The benevolent Nie Feng!"

Young Master knows your background. Once the Nie family's hereditary blood disease flares up, it will inevitably lead to demonic possession.

In the future, you will step into the demonic path and suffer from the Wind-Blood Disease. That's why I'm going to help you by using the Ice Heart Technique in conjunction with the Merit Divine Weapon to preserve a sliver of your sanity so that you won't have any regrets.

When a young master does something, how could he not investigate your origins thoroughly?

A confluence of events, a destiny ordained by Heaven.

You will achieve boundless success in the future, but unfortunately, you are also cursed stars, and most of those around you will meet a bad end.

"you···".

Chapter 901 Success and Failure Both Depend on the Wind and Clouds

"Junior brother!"

Bu Jingyun unleashed his murderous aura and was about to attack Gui Yanluo when Qin Shuang stopped him.

This is Ghost Yama's territory, and Ghost Yama's strength is said to have already reached the Grandmaster level.

Even his Dragon-Slaying Saber Technique is the pinnacle of saber techniques in the martial arts world, and he hasn't used his saber for twenty years.

Moreover, what Ghost Yama said was not without basis.

Last year, when they were searching for the Mud Bodhisattva, the Mud Bodhisattva also gave Bu Jingyun a prophecy of being a "lone star cursed by heaven."

Thinking about it carefully, besides his fellow disciples, Bu Jingyun really had no relatives or friends left, and all those around him had perished.

Ghost Yama's words also struck a nerve with Bu Jingyun.

However, Nie Feng...

Qin Shuang had not expected that Nie Feng had such a serious problem.
