“Did you guys poke your eyes out while sharpening your swords? It was clearly that group of people ambushing us in the woods, trying to steal our money and take our lives, and yet you call us villains??” Fang Niannian cursed angrily at this point.
What a blowup!
Zhu Minglang was about to say something similar.
Even if they were blind, did their brains not work either?
Have you ever seen such handsome, dashing, and elegant bad guys… oh, right, they’re blind.
“Ridiculous, you’re burying bodies and yet claim these merchants ambushed you. If they were after your wealth and your lives, why are you still alive?” the man with the high forehead and tied-back hair scoffed.
Zhu Minglang and Fang Niannian were both dumbfounded.
What kind of logical artistry is this??
So in his mind, whoever kills the other is the one plotting for wealth and murder.
“The entire Supreme Court Courtyard Continent’s intelligence has been lowered by you, they are the villains,” Fang Niannian huffed.
“Ah, meeting a few Sword Sect disciples with such poor brains, it’s not worth wasting our breath on them,” Zhu Minglang said.
A few Sword Sect disciples, yet they loiter outside the City of Sin.
They dare not step into the City of Sin, because they are too few in number and far from having the level and strength needed to purge the entire City of Sin.
But they must want to earn some reputation and establish some authority while adventuring outside.
So they wait near the City of Sin, planning to take down any wanted villains that come out of the city.
“Entering the City of Sin, there’s no such thing as being completely innocent; we’re executing justice on behalf of heaven… damn it, don’t go, confess your crimes and spare yourself the pain!” the man with the high forehead and tied-back hair shouted furiously.
The moonlight was pure white, spilling over the small forest like frost.
As the leaves rustled in the wind, the male Sword Sect member leapt down, his arms spread open like a mighty eagle.
The other three men and women also jumped down from the hillock at the same time, blocking the way in front of Zhu Minglang, Nan Lingsha, and Fang Niannian!
“Demon girl, don’t think you can escape,” said one of the female Sword Masters with her hair tied back, pointing the glinting tip of her sword at Nan Lingsha, who wore a veil over her face.
“Take one more step, and I’ll kill your Dragon Beast!” the high-foreheaded man said, his sword pointing at the large and fierce Lei Cang Violent Dragon.
Big Black Tooth moved its head from side to side, looking innocently at the high-foreheaded swordsman.
There were clearly two dragons here, so why only kill Black Treasure?
Oh, that’s not right, there were three dragons.
There was another one who seemed just to have woken up on its master’s shoulder.
The boss didn’t seem happy, having been woken up by this man’s grating voice.
“Everyone, you have all night to think things over here; we won’t be keeping you company,” Zhu Minglang continued walking forward, not at all intimidated by the longswords brandished by these few.
“You!!” The high-foreheaded man grew even angrier, a Sword Sect Sanctuary Disciple, being ignored like this by a little Dragon Shepherd??
He raised his sword swiftly; the high-foreheaded man’s swordsmanship was extremely skillful, his movements indiscernible, and there was no sign of him gathering strength…
‘Creak, creak, creak——-
Just as the man was about to exert his strength, a force of ice bondage had, at some unknown time, entwined around all the joints of his body. His joints became exceedingly stiff while he was raising his sword…
First at the shoulders, then at the elbows, followed by the wrists, this powerful ice bondage finally froze even his finger joints!
The sword stuck to his palm, both the blade and the hilt covered with cold frost. That arrogant Sword Sect disciple just stood there, his eyes wide open, watching as a thin layer of ice crystals covered his entire body!!
The other three Sword Sect disciples were the same, the female sword master maintaining her sword-raising pose, but her body had turned to ice, becoming an ice sculpture under the moonlight, her large eyes filled with horror…
She looked toward the Dragon Shepherd man, observing the exquisite and pure white little dragon on his shoulder.
‘Ice Morning… Ice Morning…’ The female sword master had good eyesight; she seemed to recognize that this was the Ice Morning White Dragon in its small form. If only she had discovered it sooner, they wouldn’t have ended up like this.
The moon shone like clear frost, spilling over the leaves and trees of the quiet forest, as well as the four Sword Sect disciples, whose bodies were rapidly becoming encased in ice before the naked eye.
‘Yawn-‘
Yawning, Little White shifted its position, letting its long tail drape down from Zhu Minglang’s shoulder, the white tassel-like neck fluff brushing against Zhu Minglang’s scapula before it dozed off again, drowsy and hazy.
Zhu Minglang, Nan Lingsha, and Fang Niannian walked past these four, completely disregarding their immensely shocked expressions…
The only things they could move were their eyes.
‘When you travel the world, remember not only to bring your sword but also don’t forget to bring your brain,’ Fang Niannian rolled her eyes and said to the few Sword Sect disciples.
These Sword Sect disciples felt as if they had undergone the ultimate humiliation, wishing they could burst out of the ice. However, they were utterly unable to break free from Little White’s binding ice technique. After over a month of sleep and cultivation with Holy Dew, Little White’s strength had become more solidified.
Without any accidents, it would be able to reach the High-level Dragon Lord stage during its growth period.
Entering the Complete Period was just a matter of time; as long as it found a spiritual object that matched Bai Qi’s attributes, before the anniversary celebration, Little White would directly advance to the Dragon King Level.
Of course, it absolutely needed a continuous supply of high-grade nectar and Star Fragment Crystals.
‘Zhu Minglang, what is the Sword Sect?’ Nan Lingsha asked.
‘It’s one of the Four Great Sects of the Supreme Court Continent. Yaoshan Sword Sect and Miao Mountain Sword Sect are the largest factions for sword masters. They are located at the furthest east and west of the Supreme Court Continent, respectively, and are supported by several great nations,’ Zhu Minglang explained.
‘Do you have any connections with them?’ Nan Lingsha continued to inquire.
‘Well, that’s a long story…’
‘Cut the long story short,’ Nan Lingsha said.
Zhu Minglang abandoned his previously sorrowful and affected demeanor and glanced covertly at Nan Lingsha.
He wasn’t sure if it was just his imagination; Nan Lingsha’s tone was different from her previous aloof and tranquil demeanor. Though she looked very much the same as usual, her eyes harbored her own thoughts.
‘I’m not Li Yunzi; don’t look for her shadow on me,’ Nan Lingsha noticed Zhu Minglang’s subtle gaze and snorted coldly in warning.
‘You misunderstand, this time I’m appraising you. I’ve realized you’re entirely different from Yunzi in personality. Sometimes, you’re utterly detached, indifferent to everything. Other times, you’re curious about everything, like a girl who has just entered the world…’ Zhu Minglang said.
At that moment, Fang Niannian was vigorously nodding in agreement.
She shared Zhu Minglang’s opinion.
Although Fang Niannian had known Nan Lingsha for quite some time, their relationship was basically just polite, as between a fruit-seller girl and a noble maiden.
Now, having traveled together for so many days, Nan Lingsha would speak freely with Fang Niannian, behaving affectionately like sisters, and at other times she would maintain just the polite responses she’d had at their first meeting..
