Ten Thousand Sword Masters

"That's him. Come on, junior sister, let's go over there." The woman, now called senior sister, angrily led her junior sister toward Zhang Jianyun.

Upon looking up and seeing the two junior sisters, Zhang Jianyun immediately lowered her head, silently pleading, "Don't come any closer! Don't come any closer!"

boom!

The two women walked up to Zhang Jianyun's table, and the senior sister slammed her hand on the table in front of Zhang Jianyun.

What are you doing?

Liu Fei stared wide-eyed.

"You little thief, I've caught you! Let's see where you run to today."

The senior sister said angrily, hands on her hips.

Zhang Jianyun realized he couldn't avoid it any longer, so he had no choice but to raise his head.

Liu Fei, standing to the side, stared at Zhang Jianyun in disbelief, then at the two women, wondering if Zhang Jianyun had gotten himself into some kind of romantic entanglement.

"Don't shout like that. People who don't know better will think I've done something to you," Zhang Jianyun said, looking up with displeasure.

Upon hearing this, the senior sister's eyes widened. "You haven't done anything to us yet? You knocked me unconscious and stole my junior sister's pet. You call that not doing anything to us?"

With a mission at hand, Zhang Jianyun didn't want to waste time arguing with these two disciples of the Longevity Palace. "It was Lord Zhu who knocked you unconscious, and it was also Lord Zhu who stole your junior sister's pet? You can't blame me, can you? Besides, it wasn't stealing; you were clearly obstructing official business."

"Hmph, you're one of the culprits too," the senior sister said discontentedly.

"What? Are you trying to punish me?" Zhang Jianyun said coldly.

"Give us back the Northern Sea Pig, and I'll let you go today," the senior sister said domineeringly.

Snapped!

Zhang Jianyun slammed his hand on the table. "The Northern Dark Pig is reduced to a corpse. Do you want it?"

"You, you killed the Northern Darkness Pig?" the junior sister asked sadly.

"Hmph, the Northern Pig killed three young girls. Everyone should have killed him. It's lucky he died by my hand," Zhang Jianyun sneered.

"you!"

The two disciples of the Longevity Palace were furious when they learned that the Northern Dark Pig had been killed by Zhang Jianyun.

Clang!

Both of them drew their longswords.

"What do you want?" Zhang Jianyun stood up abruptly. "This is Cangxi Town, the territory under the jurisdiction of the Dayu Dynasty, not your Changsheng Palace. Murder and arson will be punished."

Liu Fei also stood up, coldly looking at the two women: "You want to make a move in front of me? I'm afraid you won't be leaving this restaurant today."

Seeing the commotion, the people eating in the room all looked over, very curious, and started discussing it.

"Judging from their attire, they seem to be disciples of the Longevity Palace."

"So even the secluded sects know about the Frostflower Fruit? They think highly of this fruit?"

"Who cares what kind of palace disciple they are? If they want to take Frost Blossom Fruit from us, they should ask my greatsword if he agrees."

Seeing Zhang Jianyun and Liu Fei's cold demeanor and feeling the attention of everyone present, the two women from Changsheng Palace became somewhat flustered.

"Hmph, seeing that you're eating, I'll let it slide today. But if I run into you again, I won't let you off easily." The senior sister said, turning and leaving Jiaxing Restaurant, with the junior sister following closely behind.

After the two women left the restaurant, Zhang Jianyun and Liu Fei sat down again.

"Who are those two women? How did you manage to provoke them?" Liu Fei asked curiously.

Zhang Jianyun then told Liu Fei about the pursuit of the Northern Dark Pig.

"I see," Liu Fei said, suddenly realizing.

"What bad luck to run into these two women. Let's have a drink," Zhang Jianyun said, raising his glass.

"Let's have one!"

The two clinked glasses and drank the wine in their glasses in one gulp.

"Brother, we've only heard that there are Frostflower Fruits in Cangxi Town, but we don't know where they are. What should we do next?"

Upon hearing Niu San's words, Zhang Jianyun and Liu Fei instantly perked up and listened attentively.

"Didn't you see how many martial arts figures have come? Even the disciples of the Longevity Palace are here. Don't worry, with so many people here, they'll definitely know where the Frost Blossom Fruit is," the square-faced man said.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jianyun and Liu Fei felt disappointed.

"Brother, what should we do now?" Niu San asked.

"Eat well, drink well, sleep well, and wait for the commotion," the square-faced man said.

"Alright, I'll do as you say, brother," Niu San readily agreed.

After listening to the conversation between Niu San and the square-faced man, Zhang Jianyun thought to himself, "So these martial arts figures don't know where the Frostflower Fruit is either. Where did they hear about it from?"

Thinking of this, Zhang Jianyun picked up the wine pot in one hand and the wine cup in the other, and got up to walk towards the table where Niu San and the square-faced man were.

"Heroes, is this seat taken?" Zhang Jianyun asked, pointing to a spot between Niu San and the square-faced man.

"Nobody's here." Niu San shook his head.

Zhang Jianyun immediately sat down. "Come, let me toast these two heroes."

As Zhang Jianyun spoke, he filled Niu San's and the square-faced man's glasses with wine.

After finishing his drink, Zhang Jianyun said casually, "Just now, in my daze, I heard the two heroes talking about some kind of fruit. Could you two heroes tell me more about it?"

Niu San and the square-faced man exchanged a glance, then Niu San chuckled and said, "Frostflower Fruit, I wonder if you've heard of it, young man?"

"Frostflower Fruit? What is Frostflower Fruit? I've never heard of it," Zhang Jianyun said, feigning ignorance.

"It's a magical fruit that can increase a person's strength," Niu San explained briefly.

"Where is this fruit?" Zhang Jianyun asked, seizing the opportunity.

"Right here in Cangxi Town," Niu San affirmed.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jianyun feigned shock: "In Cangxi Town? I'm a local, and I've never heard of such a fruit before!"

Upon hearing this, Niu San exchanged another glance with the square-faced man, then said, "You're from town? I've never heard of Frostflower Fruit?"

"Never heard of it," Zhang Jianyun said seriously.

"This~" Seeing Zhang Jianyun's affirmative look, Niu San looked at the square-faced man suspiciously, who also looked puzzled.

"My two heroes, where did you hear that there is Frostflower Fruit in Cangxi Town?" Zhang Jianyun asked as he filled their cups with wine.

Niu San thought for a moment, "It seems like I learned about Frostflower Fruit in Cangxi Town while eating at a restaurant and overhearing other people discussing it. If Frostflower Fruit really exists in Cangxi Town, how come you locals don't know about it?"

"Big brother, have we been scammed?"

The square-faced man gestured to Niu San not to panic, and after a moment of contemplation, he said, "There's no smoke without fire. With so many martial artists coming to Cangxi Town, there's a high chance that Cangxi Town has Frostflower Fruit."

"But even he, a local, doesn't know that!" Niu San exclaimed.

The square-faced man looked at Niu San with some dissatisfaction, then at Zhang Jianyun, and said, "I think this fellow is just an ordinary person, not a member of the martial arts world, so it's normal that he doesn't know such things."

At this moment, Zhang Jianyun remained silent, because he knew that even someone like Tang Guanshan did not know that there was a Frost Flower Fruit in Cangxi Town.

It's truly a case of impending storm.

Zhang Jianyun looked up at the sky outside the restaurant with some emotion, and just then he saw a refined middle-aged man arrive at the restaurant's entrance.

If any of the common people were here, they would surely recognize this refined middle-aged man who had come to the entrance of the restaurant.
