Ten Thousand Sword Masters

After riding back to Cangxi Town and releasing the Crimson Flame Horse back into the stable, Zhang Jianyun returned home.

"Brother Yun, what dishes would you like to eat today? I'll cook for you." Lou Qingluan asked when she saw Zhang Jianyun return.

"Let's have some shredded potatoes and cowpeas, I don't really want anything else," Zhang Jianyun said.

"Okay, how about adding another plate of shredded pork with garlic sauce?" Lou Qingluan asked.

"Okay, go ahead and do it." Zhang Jianyun said, sitting down in a chair, closing his eyes to rest, and reviewing the fight with Huang Xing in his mind.

"Why can the crystalline light emitted by Huang Xing change shape?" Zhang Jianyun wondered.

"That must be some kind of crystal energy manipulation technique. I need to master that technique too. After the crystal energy light changes shape, both its attack and defense become stronger."

As Zhang Jianyun continuously reviewed his battle with Huang Xing, he realized that the late stage of the Historical Sea Realm was always a higher realm than the mid-stage. His victory over Huang Xing had a significant element of luck. If Huang Xing were to fight him again, having become familiar with his fighting style, he would likely defeat him very quickly.

Thinking about this, Zhang Jianyun felt somewhat irritated; his strength was still insufficient.

Before long, Lou Qingluan had prepared the meal.

"Brother Yun, dinner's ready." Lou Qingluan called Zhang Jianyun to the table.

After sitting down, Zhang Jianyun picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

"Not bad, your cooking skills have improved a lot," Zhang Jianyun praised.

"I have to improve, otherwise I'll be ashamed of myself for being a maid, I don't know anything," Lou Qingluan said with a smile.

"I don't completely treat you like a maid. You don't need to put on airs. Just be comfortable in this house," Zhang Jianyun said.

After finishing his meal, Zhang Jianyun took a stroll around the streets to digest his food. He then returned to the courtyard, practiced his boxing techniques a few times, and then practiced his swordsmanship. After washing up, he went back to his room and studied Yang Changping's experience notes.

Having studied Yang Changping's experience notes for some time, Zhang Jianyun really wanted to find an opportunity to spar with Yang Changping, to experience Yang Changping's combat power in actual combat, and to confirm some of his suspicions.

Just as Zhang Jianyun was engrossed in watching, Cao Fen, who had returned home, knocked on his door: "Jianyun, come out for a moment."

Hearing Cao Fen's call, Zhang Jianyun put down his experience manual and opened the door.

"Jianyun, there's something I want to tell you."

"What's wrong?" Zhang Jianyun asked Cao Fen, puzzled.

"Your aunt has found you a girl, and she'll bring her home for you to see tomorrow," Cao Fen said excitedly.

Zhang Jianyun frowned upon hearing this: "Didn't I say I don't want to find a wife yet? Why are you all in such a hurry?"

"You're already this age, how can you not be anxious?" Cao Fen said with dissatisfaction.

"Anyway, I'm not seeing them. I'm not coming home tomorrow," Zhang Jianyun said speechlessly.

"You dare not come back?" Cao Fen glared at him.

"I'm really not coming back," Zhang Jianyun said, going back into her room and closing the door tightly.

"Don't think you're all that just because you're a pavilion master. Let me tell you, I've decided on this marriage." Cao Fen shouted from outside.

Zhang Jianyun felt a headache coming on; it seemed he couldn't stay at this place any longer.

The next morning, Zhang Jianyun went to the slaughterhouse as usual to collect hostility points.

As soon as Zhang Jianyun stepped out of the courtyard, he felt that the air seemed a little different than usual.

He stopped and looked around, but found nothing unusual. However, Zhang Jianyun felt inexplicably nervous.

After observing his surroundings again and finding nothing unusual, Zhang Jianyun gripped the hilt of his knife and moved forward step by step, much slower than usual.

At this time, the sky was not yet fully bright, and the night still shrouded the sky.

Although it was still early, there were already some pedestrians on the street, hurrying to and fro, busy with their lives.

Huhuhu~

A breeze blew by, adding a touch of coolness to the night.

Zhang Jianyun walked forward calmly, but his mind became increasingly focused, ready to fight at any moment.

call out!

Just then, a whooshing sound came from the air. Zhang Jianyun turned around and saw three arrows shooting towards him.

Call ~

Zhang Jianyun quickly leaned back to dodge the three arrows.

Swish!

Just then, a man in black jumped down from the rooftop ahead, wielding a curved knife in both hands, and attacked Zhang Jianyun.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

After a flurry of sword strikes, Zhang Jianyun leaped onto a rooftop by the street and began running towards the outskirts.

shhhhhh!

The man in black chasing behind threw two curved knives at Zhang Jianyun.

Zhang Jianyun turned around and saw two scimitars flying towards him with a chilling aura. He kicked off and leaped into the air.

shhhhhh!

The two curved blades missed their target, swirling in the air before returning to the man in black's hands.

clap clap!

Zhang Jianyun landed on the rooftop from the air and continued running forward.

clap clap clap!

The man in black was in pursuit, his speed increasing until he was about to catch up.

shhhhhh!

The man in black threw his curved knife again, attacking Zhang Jianyun.

boom!

Zhang Jianyun jumped from the rooftop onto the street and ran wildly until he finally escaped Cangxi Town and arrived in the suburbs.

call!

Upon reaching the outskirts, Zhang Jianyun immediately stopped, turned around, and coldly looked at the man in black.

"Who are you, Yuanhe, who have come to kill me?"

"You don't need to know who I am, I'm here to take your life." The man in black said, and attacked Zhang Jianyun directly.

shhhhh!

Zhang Jianyun raised his hand and unleashed two beams of crystalline energy to attack the man in black.

shhhhh!

The man in black also unleashed two beams of crystalline energy, directly meeting Zhang Jianyun's beams of crystalline energy.

Boom!

The two crystalline lights collided with a loud bang.

The man in black leaped into the air, rolled through the shockwave, and then swung his sword at Zhang Jianyun.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

blah blah blah!

The two engaged in a fierce battle, with loud clanging sounds and the wind howling through their blades.

Clang!

The man in black swung his knife and launched a series of attacks, then unleashed a burst of crystalline energy to bombard Zhang Jianyun.

Zhang Jianyun observed that the man in black always released the crystalline light only after throwing the curved knife in his left hand.

Having noticed this detail, Zhang Jianyun decided to suppress the man in black, preventing him from having the opportunity to unleash his crystalline energy.

I let you use two-handed weapons, today I'll make sure you die here.

shhhhhh!

After unleashing a burst of crystalline light, the man in black picked up his scimitar and attacked Zhang Jianyun.

Boom boom boom!

Zhang Jianyun unleashed a burst of crystalline energy to deflect the attack from the man in black, then leaped into the sky and unleashed another burst of crystalline energy to attack the man in black.

Whoohoo!

The man in black dodged Zhang Jianyun's attacks one after another.

Clang! Clang!

Zhang Jianyun flew over and launched a fierce attack with his sword, tightly restraining the man in black and preventing him from unleashing his crystal energy.

Clang!

Zhang Jianyun suddenly slashed upwards, the immense force sending the man in black flying.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Jianyun raised his hand and unleashed two beams of crystalline energy to bombard the man in black.

The man in black dodged, and Zhang Jianyun flew after him, slashing at his head with his sword.

call!

The man in black fell backward to avoid Zhang Jianyun's attack.

Snapped!

As the man in black dodged Zhang Jianyun's slashing blade, Zhang Jianyun delivered a quick kick to the man's thigh, instantly sending him sprawling to the ground.
