Ten Thousand Sword Masters

Clang!

Xu Tianxiang swung his sword to block Zhang Jianyun's slash.

boom!

As Zhang Jianyun slashed with his right hand, he simultaneously threw a punch with his left, striking Xu Tianxiang in the abdomen and sending him flying.

puff!

Zhang Jianyun chased after him, slashed Xu Tianxiang's shoulder with a knife, and then pressed the tip of the knife against Xu Tianxiang's throat.

"Don't ever appear before me again, or I will surely kill you," Zhang Jianyun said casually.

With a knife pointed at his throat, Xu Tianxiang shed tears of humiliation; at that moment, his confidence was completely shattered.

Sheathing his sword, Zhang Jianyun jumped off the martial arts stage, leaving Xu Tianxiang alone on the stage, weeping uncontrollably.

"Jianyun, I'm so proud of you," Liu Fei said, patting Zhang Jianyun on the shoulder. "But why didn't you just kill Xu Tianxiang? Why leave him around to cause you trouble later?"

"His crime doesn't warrant death, and I feel a bit guilty about killing him. If he dares to cause me trouble again in the future, I won't feel any pressure killing him then," Zhang Jianyun said.

"Jianyun, tell me how you broke through to the Sea of ​​History Realm?" Liu Fei asked curiously.

"This?" Zhang Jianyun didn't know how to answer, after all, he only broke through to the History Sea Realm with the help of the system. "If you study the cultivation manuals diligently, carefully comprehend the crystal power of heaven and earth, and add a bit of talent and luck, you will break through."

"Why do I feel like you're talking nonsense with a straight face?" Liu Fei asked, puzzled.

"Everyone's cultivation process is different, so I can't explain it to you in detail. In short, I broke through by chance," Zhang Jianyun said, trying to fool him.

"Okay," Liu Fei said disappointedly.

Just as the two were chatting, Yang Changping suddenly summoned all the armored soldiers.

"Everyone, we just received intelligence that a powerful clone of the Serpent Master will descend upon our Cangxi Town. We must find and control its host before the Serpent Master arrives, lest it go on a killing spree after its arrival," Yang Changping said solemnly.

Upon hearing this, the soldiers all tensed up.

"Sun Dang and Gan Qiang, you two are in charge of searching Shuixiu Street. Zhou Wei and Peng Zhong, you are in charge of searching Zhuque Street. Zhang Jianyun and Liu Fei, you are in charge of searching Fenghuang Street," Yang Changping instructed.

"Yes, ma'am."

After receiving their orders, the soldiers quickly split up and took action.

"Jianyun, you'd better be careful. Snake Master is the most vengeful. Last time you killed one of his clones, and this time when he descends, he will definitely not let you go," Liu Fei warned.

"Hmph, do you think I'm afraid of the Serpent Master? I hope he comes to find me as soon as he arrives, so that no innocent people will be sacrificed," Zhang Jianyun said.

"Don't be careless. If the avatar that the Serpent Master descended this time has the cultivation of the Sea of ​​History realm, it will be difficult to deal with," Liu Fei said seriously.

"I won't be careless, but I won't be afraid either," Zhang Jianyun said.

The two arrived at Phoenix Street, carefully observing the passersby and searching for suspicious individuals in each shop along the street.

Upon arriving at their shop, Zhang Jianyun asked Zhang Song, "Dad, have any of the customers who came in today acted strangely?"

"No, they're just ordinary people, nothing unusual. Why are you asking this?" Zhang Song asked.

"Your department is investigating a suspicious person, and Liu Fei and I are in charge of investigating Phoenix Street," Zhang Jianyun said.

"Go check elsewhere, I don't have anything suspicious here," Zhang Song said, waving his hand.

I searched Phoenix Street twice, but didn't find any suspicious people.

"The Serpent Master's target shouldn't be Phoenix Street," Liu Fei concluded.

"Search again," Zhang Jianyun said, and then started searching again.

Suddenly, Zhang Jianyun saw a person walking out of Jiaxing Restaurant.

"Look at that person, doesn't he have a few black lines on his face?" Zhang Jianyun hurriedly said to Liu Fei.

Liu Fei looked at the young man and, sure enough, noticed a few dark lines on his face. "Quick, subdue him."

When the young man saw Zhang and Liu running towards him, he immediately turned and ran away.

call out!

Zhang Jianyun threw his sword sheath, knocking the young man down instantly, and then rushed over to hold him down.

"What are you doing?" the young man pinned to the ground roared angrily.

"Kid, you know what you've done. Come with us." Liu Fei said.

"What did I do? Who are you people?"

"Help! Murder!" the young man screamed.

The young man's roar quickly attracted a crowd of onlookers.

"The Nine Star Guards are on duty. All bystanders, please make way immediately." Liu Fei took out a waist token and showed it to the onlookers.

Upon seeing Liu Fei's waist tag, which clearly displayed the three gilded characters "Nine Star Guard," the onlookers scattered in a great uproar.

As they escorted the young man to the pavilion, Zhang Jianyun saw Zhou Wei and Peng Zhong also escorting a middle-aged man with a sinister face.

Not long after, Sun Dang and Gan Qiang also returned, escorting a pale-faced young man.

"Take these people to the training ground," Yang Changping ordered.

Immediately afterwards, the soldiers escorted the three suspicious individuals to the training ground, bound them up, and threw them onto three separate martial arts platforms.

"I protest! What right do you have to arrest me?" the young man Zhang Jianyun had grabbed roared.

"If you yell again, I'll cut your tongue out," Liu Fei said, pulling out his knife.

Seeing Liu Fei's stance, the young man immediately shut up.

As night fell, Yang Changping, Zhang Jianyun, and the other soldiers became increasingly tense.

Whoohoo!

A sudden gust of wind swept through the training ground, howling through the air.

This was a sign that the Serpent Master was about to arrive. Everyone's breathing quickened, and they all drew their fish-patterned swords, preparing for battle.

Whoosh!

My dear reader, there's more to this chapter! Please click the next page to continue reading—even more exciting content awaits!

The wind blew harder and harder, obscuring the moon in the sky, plunging the entire world into darkness.

Huhuhu~

Yang Changping lit the torches in the training ground, and the torches illuminated the surroundings.

"Ah~"

Suddenly, the young man who had been tied up by Zhang Jianyun and Liu Fei broke free of his ropes and roared.

call out!

Upon seeing this, Yang Changping leaped up and swung his knife at the young man.

call out!

The young man unleashed a beam of crystalline energy, forcing Yang Changping to retreat.

"Damn it, I didn't expect the Serpent King to descend upon the people we captured," Liu Fei cursed.

shhhhhh!

At this moment, Zhang Jianyun channeled his crystal energy, unleashing beams of crystal light to attack the youth.

"what!"

The youth roared again, then leaped into the air. At the same time, all of his hair turned into thin snakes.

Swish!

Yang Changping also leaped up and swung his knife at the youth in mid-air.

sizzle~

The snake formed from the youth's hair detached from his body and shot towards Yang Changping. At the same time, the youth unleashed a series of crystalline energy attacks on Yang Changping.

puff!

After slaying several snakes, Yang Changping landed, dodging the young man's crystal energy attack.

shhhhhh!

Zhang Jianyun unleashed a series of bright crystal-like attacks on the youth falling from the sky.

At this point, the Serpent King had already completed his descent.

Boom boom boom!

Snake Master unleashed a beam of light to deflect Zhang Jianyun's attack, then looked at Zhang Jianyun and said, "Boy, you were the one who killed one of my clones last time. This time, I will definitely cut off your head."

sizzle~

As soon as the Snake Master finished speaking, dozens of thin snakes on his head suddenly leaped up and shot towards Zhang Jianyun.

I like the Ten Thousand Swords Master.
