YM778.TV Chapter 482: 484: This Sword Master
However, as if hearing Zhu Minglang’s words in his semi-conscious state, the little prince Zhao Yu actually woke up, but he had forgotten he was at the bottom of the sea.
He swallowed countless dirty gulps of seawater and, amidst his frantic inhaling, he managed to choke himself unconscious again!
What a talent, the little prince.
This was far cuter than his usual pretentious and arrogant demeanor, looking like an overinflated, water-filled toad!
Zhu Minglang was holding the unfortunate prince with one hand. It was evident that he was about to drown alive, but Zhu Minglang also knew that as a Dragon King Level Dragon Shepherd, his physique wasn’t as frail as one might imagine, so he leisurely dragged this half-dead toad-like figure toward the traces of the Earth Veins.
“Mmm~~~~~~~~”
It was then that the Heavenly Slaughter Dragon let out a low roar.
It stared at the pitch-black sea, and its Dark Crystal Horn lit up at that moment. The pale light it cast on the sea floor vaguely illuminated a figure breaking through the water’s surface!
At first, Zhu Minglang thought it was that nearly thirty thousand-year-old Malevolent Water Dragon, but he soon realized that the creature coming toward him was even more terrifying than the dragon.
With incredible speed, breaking through the heavy seas, Zhu Minglang saw that the figure was heading straight for him, and he did not dare to let his guard down.
Throwing the toad-like prince aside, Zhu Minglang suddenly drew his sword, and under the sea, it sparked a fire so splendid. Then, the fire from the sword went from one spark to two, from two to four, and from four, it multiplied into countless raging fires!
The whole sea floor was lit up bright as day, the fiery sword sparks flying towards the figure who had broken through the water suddenly. At the moment of the strike, Zhu Minglang also had a clear view of who it was!
It was a person!
A God and Mortal wearing Gold Copper Armor, his body enveloped in a thin sheath of golden Haoqi!
Haoqi Martial School!
A powerhouse from one of the Four Major Sects!
This warrior, a Divine and Mortal, crossed through Zhu Minglang’s fiery sword flames unperturbed, his surrounding golden Haoqi becoming powerful and sacred, shrouding him like an ancient bell. Zhu Minglang’s sword flames struck it, pounding against something as hard as solid metal.
He lunged at Zhu Minglang with a punch, which felt like a towering mountain falling from the sky. The rock layer of the sea floor where Zhu Minglang was located suddenly sank, creating an exaggeratedly large impression of a fist!
Zhu Minglang, too, was fierce. As a member of the Sword Fighting Sect, he had never shied away from any Divine and Mortal!
With himself as the center, he unleashed a perfect circle of sword chops, instantly creating a fiery Bagua. With the intense Sword Qi, Zhu Minglang dared to meet the adversary head-on, even though he knew the other’s Cultivation Base was higher than his own.
This warrior possessed terrifying strength. Probably even a Dragon King would be brought to the ground by his punch. Zhu Minglang was inwardly shocked, wondering how such a powerful Divine and Mortal could suddenly appear in this Wild Sea Wilderness Island. Could it be he was also coveting the Earth Vein Divine Pistil for a long time?
Zhu Minglang’s fiery Bagua Sword Qi was scattered. This time, he gave up defending and both his body and sword flew like an arrow!
Sword Flash!
The figure flickered and the sword pierced through. Leaping up, Zhu Minglang flawlessly brushed past the warrior, avoiding the overwhelming punch and, in his swift passage, slashed at the warrior’s back!
Zhu Minglang thought the warrior would pull back his fist to defend, but to his surprise, the man took his sword strike squarely. Following that, the warrior rushed to the bottom of the sea, grabbed the waterlogged toad-like prince, and…
“Boom!!!!”
Turned the rock layer into dust. After feigning an attack on Zhu Minglang, the warrior immediately stomped on the rocky bottom and broke through the water, leaving without further fighting with Zhu Minglang.
Zhu Minglang was stunned for a moment.
He had rescued the little prince Zhao Yu…
Turns out it’s the old servant dog of Little Prince Zhao Yu!
After all, he is a prince, and there are always some imperial experts hidden around him to keep his dog life safe. It’s probably the last life-preserving charm the Emperor gave to his son, who has eyes higher than his skills.
Just like that, Little Prince Zhao Yu almost choked to death on seawater.
“One should be lenient where it is possible. Sword Honorable Master, please stop fussing with a junior,” the martial arts teacher transmitted his voice from a great distance.
“If you had asked me politely for the person, I could have handed him over to you. After all, he is a little prince of the Supreme Court Imperial Dynasty. How could I just chop him down casually? Even if you faced me in an upright battle, I could still give him to you. But your sneaky attack is truly disgraceful. Has the Martial Venerate of Wu Zong descended to serving the Royal Family as a dog too?” Zhu Minglang likewise transmitted back, taunting.
This martial arts teacher apparently did not recognize him, mistaking Zhu Minglang for one of the Sword Masters lying in wait within Zhu Gate’s Little Inner Court.
But Zhu Minglang had a good idea of the identity of this martial arts teacher. If nothing unexpected, it should be that martial monk master who was beaten up by him in the big competition of that power, someone equally despicable and pretentious — not a good thing at all.
“Honorable Master, we will meet again,” the martial arts teacher transmitted, with a strange tone in his voice.
“Next time I’ll chop you along with it, old servant dog!” Zhu Minglang cursed.
…
The Martial Venerate He Xuzi, who was flying through the burst of water, suddenly swayed, and almost broke his Haoqi Golden Armor!
Old servant dog…
These words were like a piercing thorn to the heart, and how could He Xuzi not be infuriated at this moment.
If it weren’t for the fact that Little Prince Zhao Yu was close to death, he really wanted to turn back around and beat them up.
Sword Sect!!
As a Martial Venerate of the Wu Zong, how many in the Supreme Court Imperial Dynasty dared to say half a disrespectful word to him??
In terms of cultivation base, He Xuzi was above the other party, yet not only did he have to endure a sword strike from behind, he also had to swallow this insult…
He glanced at Little Prince Zhao Yu, whose face was covered in blood…
This damn brat just had to stir up trouble; if not for someone entrusting him, he wouldn’t have come to such a place like an old eunuch, all for the sake of preserving his little life!
“But who exactly is that Sword Master? His voice seemed quite young,” He Xuzi frowning, pondered this question carefully.
The person was from the Sword Fighting Sect.
The sword in his hand was extraordinary, imbued with the Flame God Rune.
And his displayed swordsmanship was also domineering and strong; Martial Venerate He Xuzi had never heard of any Sword Honorable Master from the Sword Fighting Sect near Qin City!
Nowadays the Sword Honorable Masters that trod the Supreme Court Courtyard Continent were all well-known; He Xuzi recognized quite a few of them, and even those he hadn’t seen, he had heard of. But this Fire Sword Honorable Master seemed to be someone he had never met nor heard of.
…
Meanwhile, Zhu Minglang actually didn’t bother to chase.
The main reason was that there were still people who needed rescue inside the Earth Vein Cave. Besides, cutting off the Divine Pistil of the Nuwa Dragon was critical since those flame stems would grow back again.
Zhu Minglang immediately returned to the Earth Vein Cave.
He first helped Zhu Rongrong, Zhu Wangxing, and others to a safer place and then approached the Earth Vein Divine Pistil, using the faint sense in his soul to search for that key life-preserving pistil.
