Unreliable Sword Immortal.

Chapter 213 He'll cause trouble if he's not allowed to be the leader of the alliance.

"Ten thousand dubious lottery tickets?"

Lu Chao rubbed his hands together, thinking to himself that this reward was pretty good; it was rare for the occasionally unreliable system to be so generous.

But as for the mission details...

Lu Chao thought for a moment, then stood up and said, "Everyone, I agree to form a sword cultivator alliance. Furthermore, I would like to volunteer to be the alliance leader. I believe that in terms of character, knowledge, and ability, I am the best choice. What do you all think? How about I become the alliance leader?"

"Um?"

"Sect Leader Lu, what do you mean?"

"Sect Leader Lu, you want to be the alliance leader? Are you kidding me?"

"Sect Leader Lu, stop fooling around!"

Immediately, a large number of NPCs spoke up, completely disregarding Lu Chaoding's statement.

Lu Chaoding had a playful attitude and spoke without restraint. He continued, "I'm serious. In short, I want to be the alliance leader. If you don't let me, I'll cause trouble. You guys figure it out!"

"Haha, if you can't be allowed to take the position, you'll cause trouble. Sect Leader Lu, you're too shameless!"

"interesting!"

"General Zuo Xuandao, what do you think?"

"How about we make Sect Leader Lu the alliance leader?"

"Everyone, take this seriously, this is the Sword Cultivation Tournament."

The main hall immediately became lively. Although most of the NPCs here didn't even have names, their personalities were very well-developed. Some were chatting and laughing, and a few were quite funny.

Lu Chao gave Jia Zhengyi a wink, and the latter immediately understood, standing up and shouting, "Sect Leader Lu's divine skills are invincible! The Moral Sword Sect firmly supports Sect Leader Lu as the leader of the alliance. This old man and the disciples of the sect are willing to obey Sect Leader Lu's orders."

As he spoke, he nudged Ren Daniu beside him, and Ren Daniu stood up and shouted, "Sect Leader Lu is mighty! Long live Sect Leader Lu! It is against all reason that Sect Leader Lu should not become the Alliance Leader! We firmly support Sect Leader Lu to become the Alliance Leader!"

Jia Zhengyi then added, "If Sect Leader Lu can't become the alliance leader, who here is qualified? I only recognize Sect Leader Lu!"

"Please appoint Sect Leader Lu as the Alliance Leader and usher in a peaceful and prosperous era for the Sword Realm."

Ren Daniu and Jia Zhengyi both have loud voices, and their back-and-forth singing created an awkward atmosphere, but Lu Chaoding was quite satisfied with what he heard.

Gradually, several NPCs joined in the commotion, seemingly joking but not really, supporting Lu Chao's appointment as the leader of the alliance.

Seeing that the atmosphere was good, Lu Chao bowed to everyone and said, "Thank you all for your support. Come on, click here to enter the reliable store. To thank you for your support, we're giving away chilled watermelon juice for free. If you like it, give us a five-star review."

He genuinely gave it away for free, setting the price of the chilled watermelon juice at zero, not aiming for profit, but simply to gain popularity.

"Huh, a reliable online store?"

"They actually have chilled watermelon juice!"

"That works! Haha!"

"I didn't expect Sect Leader Lu to also run a reliable online store?"

"Could this be the legendary online store that can only be opened with the authorization of Qian Duoduo, one of the four extraordinary individuals, through a joint venture?"

"Sect Leader Lu, would you be willing to sell the Dragon-Slaying Sword?"

"Sect Leader Lu, I'd like to buy a get-out-of-jail-free card. Price is not an issue..."

As soon as Lu Chaoding opened the reliable shop, a large number of NPCs immediately gathered around. Bottles of chilled watermelon juice appeared in the main hall, and Lu Chaoding's business was booming, quickly garnering many five-star reviews.

Of course, many NPCs don't accept Lu Chaoding's attitude. Based on their own personality settings, they ignore, distance themselves from, dislike, or even hate Lu Chaoding.

General Zuo Xuandao was one of them. Seeing that Lu Chaoding had turned the main hall into a bustling marketplace, his expression grew increasingly grim.

Originally, the Great General of the Great Yu Dynasty was supposed to strive to become the leader of the Sword Immortal Alliance at the Sword Immortal Tournament. If he failed, he would bring up the issue again at the next tournament.

Therefore, Lu Chaoding, Jia Zhengyi, and Ren Daniu's disruption clearly angered him. He snorted coldly and said, "Sect Leader Lu, that's enough. This is the venue for the Sword Cultivation Conference, not your marketplace. Forgive my bluntness, but you are not qualified to be the Alliance Leader. Not only are you lacking in strength, but you also lack prestige. Furthermore, your Reliable Sword Sect is merely a second-rate sect with shallow foundations. If you become the Alliance Leader, how will you gain the respect of the masses?"

Lu Chaoding's mind was racing. He looked at the Alliance Leader token in Zuo Xuandao's hand, thinking that the key to becoming the Alliance Leader might be obtaining that token.

After a moment's thought, Lu Chao strode to the center of the hall and said directly, "General, let's have a sword duel. If you win, I, the sect leader, will nominate you as the leader of the sword cultivator alliance. If I win, you will give me the token in your hand."

"Um?"

Zuo Xuandao narrowed his eyes and remained silent for a long time.

"Hey, are you stuck?" Lu Chao waved his hand in front of Zuo Xuandao and said, "Not replying means you agree, and this sect leader might just beat you up!"

"snort!"

Zuo Xuan said, "This is utter nonsense and utterly unreasonable. Sect Leader Lu, you are not welcome at this Sword Cultivation Conference. Leave now and don't ever come back!"

Lu Chao retorted, "No way! If they won't let me be the alliance leader, I'll cause trouble!"

"You!" Zuo Xuandao's eyes widened in anger as he shouted, "Nonsense! Are you a three-year-old child?"

Lu Chao, unhurried and unhurried, chuckled, "Anyway, if they won't let me be the alliance leader, I'll cause trouble!"

"Since that's the case, then this general has no choice but to offend him. Men, throw him out!"

Zuo Xuandao shouted, and then four NPCs dressed in armor as soldiers entered the hall. Their levels were all as high as 70, and they looked very cold. Holding sticks, they walked straight up to Lu Chao and tried to drive him out.

If an ordinary player were to cause such a ruckus at this sword-cultivation tournament, they would likely be expelled, and would probably actually be expelled.

But Lu Chaoding is no ordinary player. He is now a max-level Transcendent Realm player. So what if the opponents are four level 70 NPCs? Lu Chaoding doesn't care at all. When they get close, he strikes first before they can make a move.

With a single sword strike, the hall was filled with sword shadows. Lu Chaoding immediately killed a level 70 guard and then quickly entered the battle space with three other level 70 guards.

This time, they truly entered the battle space and did not remain in the Hall of Heroes. The battle was set against the backdrop of Lu Chaoding's Nut Secret Realm.

"Why bother, you three?"

Lu Chao shook his head and sighed.

The three NPCs, however, were extremely dull and did not react at all.

Clearly, their level of "intelligence" is not high.

Once the battle began, Lu Chaoding showed no mercy, unleashing the [Twelve Hates of Sword Cultivator] and swiftly eliminating all three guards. The guards' corpses vanished in a flash of light, leaving no trace.

"Not even a single gold coin dropped?"

Lu Chao sheathed his sword, and with a flick of his sleeve, the battle space shattered, and he returned to the Hall of Heroes, reappearing in the same spot. Standing behind him was none other than the Divine Might General Zuo Xuandao.

"The thugs aren't strong enough!" Lu Chao said with a sly smile, looking at Zuo Xuandao. "They're causing trouble because they can't be the alliance leader!"

Zuo Xuandao's face grew even colder, and he shouted, "Guards! Guards! More guards!"

Quickly, three more waves of NPCs rushed into the main hall, each group consisting of four people, all level 70. After appearing, they lined up to greet Lu Chao.

Lu Chaoding made his move immediately, pulling the four-person team at the front into the battle space with a single sword strike. Two minutes later, the battle ended, and Lu Chaoding reappeared to attack the second team.

In less than eight minutes, Lu Chaoding wiped out all three sword cultivator teams. It wasn't that they were weak, but that Lu Chaoding's combat power was too strong. His super speed gave him the advantage of striking first in the battle space. Basically, with one first strike, he could kill all the guards on the other side.

Seeing that there were no more NPCs, Lu Chaoding looked at Zuo Xuandao again and said, "Any more? Let's all come at once, I can handle it!"

"This is outrageous!"

Zuo Xuandao stamped his foot, finally unable to restrain himself, and drew the sword behind him, slashing at Lu Chao.

"Well done!"

Lu Chao dodged the sword strike with a quick movement, returned a normal slash, and the next moment he entered the battle space with Zuo Xuandao.

"That's right. If you had cooperated like that just now, why would we have had to sacrifice those 20 loyal and brave soldiers?"

Lu Chao laughed heartily, but quickly adjusted his equipment, putting on everything he could wear, hang, and carry, and then released 16 Yellow Spring Sword Spirits and 11 Heavenly Mad Dragon Sword Spirits.

The person opposite him was a level 90 Divine Might Sword Saint, so Lu Chao dared not be careless.

Soon, the battle broke out. Lu Chaoding had high speed and the advantage of striking first, and immediately used the [Sword Immortal Twelve Hatreds].

The level 90 Divine Might General withstood the first eight of Lu Chao's [Twelve Hatreds of Sword Cultivation], but was defeated on the ninth hatred.

However, he did not die, nor did his body turn into light and disappear. Instead, he transformed into a bright sphere about ten feet in diameter.

Lightning crackled across the sphere, resembling a ball of thunder or a heart pounding. After about ten breaths, the ball of thunder transformed into a human form, becoming the likeness of Zuo Xuandao.
