Ten Thousand Sword Masters

Picking up the metal box, Zhang Jianyun was overjoyed to see Bai Baile's extremely strong reaction, knowing he had found a treasure, and hurriedly stuffed it into his pocket.

"Give me back the iron box!" Bai Baile roared at Zhang Jianyun after regaining his balance, then charged forward with his sword raised.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Bai Baile charged over and engaged in a fierce battle. His attacks lacked their previous composure; they were powerful but full of openings.

blah blah blah!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The two clashed, and the intensity of the fight escalated dramatically, resembling a life-or-death battle.

Sensing Bai Baile's determination to fight to the death, Zhang Jianyun knew he had found something extraordinary—something that could drive Bai Baile mad.

Zhang Jianyun quickly pondered whether or not to summon Zhu Lan and Mo Dun to kill Bai Baile.

Bai Baile was an elder of the Longevity Palace. After killing him, the Longevity Palace would not sit idly by and would definitely come looking for trouble.

Zhang Jianyun felt that he had already established a large enough presence and did not want to provoke any more martial arts sects like Changsheng Palace.

"Give me back the metal box! Give it back!" Bai Baile said, his eyes blazing with anger.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

blah blah blah!

After a fierce battle, Zhang Jianyun tried to communicate with Bai Baile: "Bai Baile, why care so much about material possessions? How important can the things in the iron box be that you're fighting me so desperately?"

"If it's not important, then please return the iron box to me. As long as you return it to me, I promise to leave Cangxi Town immediately and never bother you again," Bai Baile said.

"Why should I give you my things?" Zhang Jianyun asked innocently.

"Aaaaah, go to hell!" Bai Baile roared furiously.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

blah blah blah!

After a brief clash of swords, the two then unleashed a barrage of crystalline energy attacks on each other.

The battle intensified, and Zhang Jianyun realized that things couldn't end peacefully. If he wanted to take the iron box for himself, he would have to kill Bai Baile.

Once he made up his mind, he no longer cared about the Longevity Palace. Zhang Jianyun decided to find the right opportunity to summon Zhu Lan and Mo Dun to kill Bai Baile.

Boom boom boom!

The crystalline energy emitted by the two collided repeatedly, creating ripples of light that impacted all directions.

Swish!

Taking advantage of the light generated by the collision of crystal energy obscuring their vision, Zhang Jianyun immediately summoned Zhu Lan and Mo Dun, and then launched an attack on Bai Baile together with Zhu Lan and Mo Dun.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

blah blah blah!

Surrounded by the sudden appearance of Zhu Lan and Mo Dun, Bai Baile was instantly in dire straits and unable to defend himself.

blah blah blah!

Taking advantage of Zhu Lanmo's attack on Bai Baile, Zhang Jianyun leaped up and swooped down from the sky to launch an attack on Bai Baile.

Boom boom boom!

In his final struggle, Bai Baile swung his sword to block Zhu Lan and Mo Dun's attacks while unleashing a burst of crystalline energy at Zhang Jianyun.

Zhang Jianyun forcefully unleashed a burst of crystalline energy to counter Bai Baile's attack. Ignoring the shockwave generated by the collision of crystalline energies, he directly penetrated the shockwave and swung his sword towards Bai Baile's head.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

Bang bang bang bang!

Bai Baile struggled to cope with the combined attack from Zhang Jianyun, Zhu Lan, and Mo Dun.

Pfft! Pfft!

Zhang Jianyun continued to attack Bai Baile with his sword, leaving countless wounds on Bai Baile's body.

"Zhang Jianyun, how dare you collude with the supernatural!" Bai Baile roared, trying to break through the encirclement and escape.

Zhang Jianyun would never let Bai Baile escape, otherwise Zhu Lan and Mo Dun, whom he had summoned, would be considered to be colluding with monsters, and he would not be able to live openly in the Dayu Dynasty.

"Zhang Jianyun, I don't want the iron box anymore. Just let me leave safely, and I won't tell anyone about your collusion with the supernatural," Bai Baile said, exhausted.

"Bai Baile, prepare to die. Don't even think about escaping," Zhang Jianyun said coldly.

"Zhang Jianyun, if you won't let me live, you won't have a good life either. Let's all die together!" Bai Baile roared, then frantically unleashed a barrage of crystalline energy attacks at Zhang Jianyun.

Boom boom boom!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

blah blah blah!

Bang bang bang!

Pfft!

Finally, Bai Baile collapsed to his knees, exhausted, and Zhang Jianyun severed his right arm with a single blow.

puff!

Zhang Jianyun severed Bai Baile's head with a single stroke.

"You have received hostility points from Bai Bai Le."

Having finally killed Bai Baile, Zhang Jianyun took a few deep breaths, his tense mind finally relaxing.

After calming down, Zhang Jianyun opened the iron box and saw the Breakthrough Pearl.

"What is this?" Zhang Jianyun picked up the Breakthrough Pearl.

As soon as Zhang Jianyun picked up the Breakthrough Pearl, he felt the Historical Sea Realm within his body churning violently, like a volcanic eruption about to burst forth.

Hastily putting down the Breakthrough Bead, Zhang Jianyun examined it in surprise: "What exactly is this thing? Why is my historical sea surging so violently when I hold it?"

"This must be a treasure, otherwise Bai Baile would never have fought me to the death." Zhang Jianyun pondered, then closed the iron box and put it in his pocket.

After killing Bai Baile, Zhang Jianyun returned to Cangxi Town and headed towards the Zhao residence.

Upon arriving outside the Zhao residence, Zhang Jianyun considered summoning Zhu Lan and Mo Dun to slaughter everyone in the Zhao family. However, he then thought that if it was a strange entity that wiped out the entire Zhao family, the county would definitely order Cangxi Pavilion to investigate, and the trouble would fall on his own shoulders. It wouldn't be easy to fabricate a story and explain it to his superiors.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Jianyun decided to take matters into his own hands and only kill Zhao Tiancai. After all, the other members of the Zhao family had not done anything wrong, and innocent people should not be implicated.

After making up his mind, Zhang Jianyun went to a tailor shop and bought several sets of clothes and some face towels. He found a secluded corner, chose a set to change into, put on the face towel, and went to the outside of the Zhao residence again.

call!

He leaped into the Zhao residence, then jumped onto the roof, and began searching the room where Zhao Tiancai was.

After searching for a while, Zhang Jianyun arrived at the backyard of the Zhao residence and found Zhao Tiancai walking his dog in the backyard, accompanied by two concubines, with servants passing by from time to time.

Zhang Jianyun waited on the roof for Zhao Tiancai to come in.

Fifteen minutes later, Zhao Tiancai finished walking the dog and entered the house accompanied by his two concubines.

As soon as he entered the room, Zhao Tiancai began to caress his two concubines with both hands.

As soon as Zhao Tiancai entered the house, Zhang Jianyun fell from the roof, picked up two stones, and went to the window. Zhang Jianyun threw the two stones, knocking out the two concubines next to Zhao Tiancai, and then jumped into the house through the window.

"Who are you?"

Upon seeing Zhang Jianyun enter wearing a face mask, Zhao Tiancai asked in a flustered manner.

"The people who came to kill you," Zhang Jianyun said coldly.

"Hero, spare my life! Money is no problem. Just tell me how much you want," Zhao Tiancai said hastily.

"Zhao Tiancai, how did you manage to persuade Bai Baile to avenge you?" Zhang Jianyun asked.

"Who are you?" Zhao Tiancai asked in surprise.

"I'm Zhang Jianyun's friend, and I'm asking this on his behalf. If you answer this question, I'll leave immediately and I won't hurt you," Zhang Jianyun said, trying to deceive him.

"I gave him a breakthrough bead," Zhao Tiancai said.

"So that bead was the legendary Breakthrough Bead," Zhang Jianyun thought to himself with secret delight.

"Zhao Tiancai, thank you for your honesty. I will let you end this journey of life without pain," Zhang Jianyun said.

"Spare me, sir, spare me!" Zhao Tiancai cried out in terror.

boom!

Zhang Jianyun grabbed a bronze statue from the nearby table and smashed it against Zhao Tiancai's head. Zhao Tiancai's head was instantly smashed open, and he died immediately.
