I became a Sword Emperor in the Martial Arts World

Chapter 66 Next Time Forever

"Ye Qingzhou, you hold off Gui Jianchou, I'm going to get reinforcements."

He Zhongyang turned to flee, but as soon as he stood up, Ye Qingzhou, without turning his head, unleashed a two-in-one sword move.

Waves upon waves!

Four times the damage!

Six forces combined into one dragon-shaped sword energy slash!

The sword energy split into four, and with the force of a dragon emerging from the sea, it shattered He Zhongyang's limbs, turning him into a human pig, and he fell to the ground, letting out a miserable howl.

Duan Ming immediately stopped what he was doing and asked with great interest, "You didn't come here to rescue him?"

Ye Qingzhou remained unfazed: "I'm here to kill him with my own hands."

"Wait! I wasn't the mastermind behind Ye Xiangyang's affair!"

In order to save his life, He Zhongyang put on a truly superb performance, crying and pleading, "I know I was wrong. I didn't mean to do it. It was a scheme set up by the Gu family of Xingcheng. Gu Changqing wanted to get your mother, Cheng Yurong, so he deliberately tried to destroy your father."

Clang~

Ye Qingzhou raised his hand and slashed out with his sword, severing He Zhongyang's left ear: "You are not the mastermind, that's true. The Gu family's scheme is true, but Gu Changqing was not involved. Am I right?"

"you……"

He Zhongyang was terrified. He had deliberately dragged Gu Changqing into this so that he could take someone down with him before he died, and make Ye Qingzhou seek revenge on Gu Changqing and die at Gu Changqing's hands.

Unexpectedly, the carefully laid trap, a lie hidden within the truth, was exposed by Ye Qingzhou with a single sentence.

Ye Qingzhou's eyes were icy: "No one can lie in front of my flawless sword heart. If you want to die a quick death, you'd better tell me some useful information."

"Wait, please don't kill me! I've truly repented!"

"You're wrong, you just know you're going to die."

"No, no, I'm the captain of the Linjiang Martial Arts Association's enforcement team! You can't kill me!"

"You're wrong again. I'm killing you because you want to kill me, and it has nothing to do with who you are."

Ye Qingzhou raised the Longyuan sword, and He Zhongyang cried out for mercy again: "I have money, lots and lots of money! Let me go, all that money is yours!"

"You're still lying. You're out of money, aren't you?"

He Zhongyang was taken aback. He had indeed spent all his savings to improve his cultivation, otherwise he would not have taken the risk of cooperating with the Heart Fiend Cult to steal the Divine Sword Jade Book from Lingyun Cave.

Seeing that he could not obtain any more valuable information, Ye Qingzhou drew his sword and beheaded He Zhongyang, thus ending the feud between the two families.

Just as Ye Qingzhou was about to sheath his sword, Duan Ming grabbed a man from the basement and threw him in front of Ye Qingzhou: "There's one more survivor. I've destroyed the surveillance equipment in the basement, so this is the only living eyewitness left."

huh~

A flash of sword energy passed by, and before He Weifang could even beg for mercy, his head had already fallen to the ground, and he was dead beyond any doubt.

"Wow, you're really heartless."

"He killed me, so it's only natural for me to kill him."

Ye Qingzhou avenged the original owner of this body, then looked intently at Duan Ming: "Have your injuries healed?"

"Hey, today's encounter was unexpected, so it doesn't count. If you really want a full-fledged battle with me, let's wait until next time, next time for sure."

After Duan Ming finished speaking, he leaped into the air and used the Aerial Crossing Technique to disappear into the night.

In the blink of an eye, he landed in front of Ye Qingzhou and flicked his finger at him: "I almost forgot, here, the card number is six eights."

Ye Qingzhou raised his hand and caught the flying card, discovering it was a bank card.

Fearing that Ye Qingzhou would have another outburst, Duan Ming leaped into the air once more, his voice carrying from the night: "I heard you want to forge your bones. Here's fifty million. Take it and use it."

"Ha, those who offer unsolicited favors are either up to no good or are thieves."

Even so, Ye Qingzhou still put the bank card in his pocket. After all, no matter what his opponent was plotting or what tricks they wanted to play, he needed to become stronger.

Only those who wield power can control their own destiny.

…………

The next day, Ye Qingzhou went to school as usual.

"Pig's head leaf! Big news!"

"Have you found a girlfriend?"

"Get lost, I'm serious. Didn't you hear? Last night, a family was murdered in Linjiang City. Celebrity entrepreneur He Qixiang, his son He Weifang (nicknamed 'Little Tyrant'), and his brother He Zhongyang were all killed in their home. It's said that there were limbs and blood everywhere at the scene. It was horrific."

"oh."

Ye Qingzhou opened his book to review without any expression. The midterm exams were coming up soon, and as the champion of the sword fighting competition, he couldn't possibly fail, could he?

"Holy crap, Pighead Ye, why are you reacting so calmly? I remember you have a grudge against He Weifang, right? Could it be that you did this?"

"Yes, I made it."

Huang Liwen laughed heartily: "Not bad, not bad, you acted quite well, I almost believed you."

At lunchtime, Ye Qingzhou's phone rang. It was Xu Yunxi, who had just finished a mobilization meeting in the city.

"Did you do it?"

"Um."

"Does anyone else know?"

"Ghost Sword Sorrow Duan Ming".

"...You've joined the Heart-Slaying School?"

"no."

"That's good."

Xu Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief.

The Heart Fiend Clan has lost Zhang Xinwu, their pillar of strength. Although they still have six top masters—the Wind God, the Rain Master, the Thunder God, the Lightning Goddess, the Mountain Lord, and the River God—their power is far less than before, and they are universally hated in the Eastern Pole Kingdom.

She certainly didn't want Ye Qingzhou to board such a dilapidated ship and ruin his future.

As for the concern that Ghost Swordsman Duan Ming might betray him?

Haha, without evidence, who would believe the words of a wanted criminal?

Moreover, Ye Qingzhou is not some Tom, Dick, or Harry that can be sacrificed at will. With his background as a commoner martial artist, he won the sword fighting competition. In the eyes of the authorities, he is a model citizen with a clean family background. They would be eager to support him. Who would be so blind as to come and suppress him?

"By the way, I've raised enough money for bone forging, but there are many rare and precious items that you can't buy even if you have the money."

"You've earned enough money for bone forging so quickly?"

Xu Yunxi assumed that Ye Qingzhou had emptied the He family's coffers, so she didn't think much of it. Little did she know that the money was given by Duan Ming, with the purpose of helping Ye Qingzhou quickly improve her strength and accelerate the recovery of Longyuan's sword soul.

The Xu family of Linjiang has powerful connections; in just three days, Xu Yunxi helped Ye Qingzhou gather all the materials needed for bone forging.

"The low-grade rare treasures, Golden Jade Flower and Jade Bone Flower, the mid-grade rare treasures, Blood Salvia and Dragon Beard Grass, and the high-grade rare treasure, Divine Gold, are all the bone-forging materials you need."

There are five items in total, the most expensive of which is naturally a top-grade rare treasure, a divine gold of radiant gold, a piece the size of a palm is worth 4000 million.

Divine Metal is a strange metal that can fuse with the spiritual power of martial artists. Once integrated into the body, it can transform into an activated state, attaching to the bones to increase bone hardness and enhance the transmission efficiency of martial arts true energy.

When necessary, it can even resonate with martial arts true energy to amplify its power. Therefore, divine metal has a wide range of uses and is often in short supply.

According to their grade, Divine Gold is currently divided into three colors based on the intensity of its vital energy: Dark Gold, Crimson Gold, and Radiant Gold.

To ensure the growth potential of his martial bone, Xu Yunxi naturally found the best Radiant Gold Divine Gold available to Ye Qingzhou. Although it was expensive at 40 million, it was well worth the price.
