The Venerable Swordsman

Chapter 69 What a Nerd!

Undoubtedly, Ye Xuan felt quite panic in his heart!

“Go to look for my master?”

“Look for the hell!”

He kept walking toward the distance, faster and faster. His forehead was dripping with sweat!

At this moment, the white-haired old man not far away suddenly said, “Little friend, wait a moment!”

For Ye Xuan, his voice sounded rather melodious!

If the old man didn’t stop him, he could only go...

Ye Xuan stopped and turned to look at the white-haired old man. The old man smiled and said, “Little friend, why do you bother your master with such a trifle?”

After that, he turned his head and looked at the old man in the black robe who was next to him. “Go to draw 50 million gold coins.”

When the people present heard what the white-haired old man said, they were all stunned.

Especially the old man in the black robe, he looked at him for a moment in surprise, and then said, “Third Floorlord, the 50 million...”

The white-haired old man’s brows slightly frowned. “Be quick!”

Upon hearing his order, the old man in the black robe didn’t dare to hesitate. He threw a look at Ye Xuan who was nearby and turned away.

While, Jiang Jiu, who was at the near distance, also cast a look at Ye Xuan. Her eyes were full of nothing but curiosity!

The white-haired old man’s eyes fell on Ye Xuan. He looked Ye Xuan up and down. Then a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes. After a while, he shook his head and said while smiling, “You are truly a Sword...”

Speaking of this, he paused slightly, and then said, “You really deserve to be the disciple of the master. The foundation of your physical body is quite good. Even within the Drunken Fairy Building, there are only a few people who can match you. Young boy, you have a great future!”

Ye Xuan smiled gently. “Predecessor, you overpraise me.”

The white-haired old man smiled and said, “You are free from arrogance and rashness. Your temperament is fairly good!”

Ye Xuan, “...”

At this moment, the old man in the black robe who had left before returned to the field, and he handed a golden card to Ye Xuan. “There are 50 million gold coins in this card. You can withdraw the money at any place in the Qing Continent, or you can come to the Drunken Fairy Building to withdraw.”

Ye Xuan took the golden card and then cupped his hands at the white-haired old man. “Thank you.”

The white-haired old man hesitated a little, and then said, “Little friend, there were many conflicts between you and the Drunken Fairy Building, but these were merely misunderstandings. What do you think?”

Ye Xuan said solemnly, “Of course.”

The white-haired old man smiled. “I’m afraid I have to take my leave. Right, please say hello to your master. If you can, welcome you and your master to come to visit the Drunken Fairy Building!”

Ye Xuan slightly saluted. “I may bother you then!”

The white-haired old man smiled and said, “It’s my honor! See you again!”

After that, he turned around and disappeared, and then the old man in the black robe followed him and disappeared too.

Somewhere, the old man in the black robe suddenly asked, “Third Floorlord, the Drunken Fairy Building didn’t need to pay the 50 million. I...”

The white-haired old man looked coldly at the old man in the black robe. “Didn’t need to pay? Do you want to die?”

The old man in the black robe was shocked. “What on earth is that boy’s origin?”

The white-haired old man slowly closed his eyes. “The existence that the Drunken Fairy Building can’t afford to offend.”

Hearing this, the old man in the black robe looked frightened. “How could it be possible...”

The white-haired old man whispered, “Do you know how the Floorlord Han and the Eighth Floorlord died?”

Before the old man in the black robe could answer, the white-haired old man said, “They were killed by that boy’s master within one sword strike. Only one strike, but both of them failed to take it!”

The old man in the black robe was already stunned.

The white-haired old man turned his head to look at the distant sky. “I thought that this young boy would join Cangmu College. But it never occurred to me that those idiots in Cangmu College actually shut him out. Hehe, now we’re going to see some fun.”

With this, he looked at the old man in the black robe. “You are not allowed to propagandize anything about this boy. Just let Cangmu College continue walking on its path of destruction! Also, you should try your best to woo this boy when he is in Jiang Country. Don’t bother him with trivial matters. I don’t want to clean up the mass left by you every day.”

After that, the white-haired old man trembled a little and disappeared right away into the far end of the sky.

Staying put, it took the old man in the black robe a long time to come to his senses!

...

Before the tent, when the white-haired old man and the man in the black robe left, Jiang Jiu went up to Ye Xuan. She fixed her eyes at Ye Xuan as if it was the first time she saw him.

Ye Xuan laughed and said, “What’s wrong?”

Jiang Jiu whispered, “You pretended to be weak, but in fact, you are really somebody!”

Ye Xuan smiled bitterly. “In fact, it is a bit...”

Jiang Jiu suddenly interrupted Ye Xuan’s words. “You don’t need to tell me everything. You should learn to be discreet. Do you understand?”

Ye Xuan smiled and said, “Okay!”

Seeing him say that, Jiang Jiu glared at him. “Do you really say nothing when I told you so?”

Ye Xuan was completely confused...

Seeing the dull look on Ye Xuan’s face, Jiang Jiu couldn’t help but titter. Then she turned her head and glanced around. Soon, all those strong ones and soldiers around them retreated.

Then Ye Xuan handed the golden card to Jiang Jiu. “Here you are!”

Jiang Jiu looked at the golden card in Ye Xuan’s hand and fell silent. The smile on her face was also gradually disappearing.

“What’s wrong?” Ye Xuan asked.

Jiang Jiu looked up at Ye Xuan. “It is 50 million gold coins.”

Ye Xuan grinned. “I know. To be honest, when I took this card, my hand trembled because I had never taken so much money...”

Jiang Jiu looked straight at Ye Xuan. “You don’t have to give it to me.”

Ye Xuan put the golden card in Jiang Jiu’s hand. “Since when did you become so womanishly fussy?”

Jiang Jiu grinned. “Okay.”

After that, she took the golden card. Seeming thinking of something, she turned around to look to one side, and soon an old man appeared beside her. He gave an ice blue box to Ye Xuan and said, “Childe Ye, it’s the Fire Spirit. That very night a few days ago, Ninth Princess sent me to ask the King for it. The whole Royal Household has only one Fire Spirit. In order to get it from the King, the Ninth Princess really...”

“That’s enough!”

At this time, Jiang Jiu suddenly interrupted him. “Why do you say these trivial things?”

With this, she looked at Ye Xuan. “I know that your sister is sick. This Fire Spirit can be very helpful to her. In addition, I asked my father to send the best Master in the Tao of Medicine in Jiang Country to go to Canglan College. But I just don’t know what the result is!”

Ye Xuan took up the blue box. Then he looked at Jiang Jiu and said earnestly, “Thank you.”

Looking at the golden card in her hand, Jiang Jiu shook her head and sighed. “You are such a nerd... You are the one who suffered a great loss, but you still thanked me for that. What a nerd!”

Ye Xuan, “...”

“Boom!”

Just then, a loud sound suddenly came from the Frontier Mountain. Almost immediately after that, a white mushroom cloud rose up to the sky from the Frontier Mountain.

Ye Xuan and Jiang Jiu turned to look at the position where the Frontier Mountain was located. Jiang Jiu’s brows frowned immediately. “They have already broken the inhibitions of the spiritual vein. It seems that a war is coming soon!”

“Why?” Ye Xuan couldn’t understand.

Jiang Jiu whispered, “The inhibitions of the spiritual vein are broken and plenty of the Spiritual Qi will leak out. The Frontier City is located nearby, so it will become the main beneficiary. At that time, the Frontier City will be a treasure land such that many forces and aristocratic families will definitely come here. Then this city will become more than just a sole important military place... Tang Country will definitely fight for the city.”

With this, she turned to look at Ye Xuan. “Go back to the Imperial Capital!”

Ye Xuan thought about it, then nodded. “I don’t know anything about the affairs of the national defense between Tang Country and Jiang Country. So I’m of little help here. Besides, I have been out for a long time. It’s time to go back!”

At this time, Jiang Jiu added, “You should be careful when you go back.”

“What do you mean?” Ye Xuan was puzzled.

Jiang Jiu said in a deep voice, “As far as I know, Cangmu College make an overall survey on you. This college is very domineering in doing everything, which is almost the same as the Drunken Fairy Building. If they find some of your unknown backgrounds, they may make underhand attacks.”

Ye Xuan’s eyebrows wrinkled slightly. “Are they so lack of confidence?”

Jiang Jiu shook her head. “It’s not that they are lack of confidence, but they only want to ensure no risk at all... Just like in the past, several geniuses in Canglan College disappeared without any message. In short, be careful!”

Ye Xuan thought about it and then nodded. “Understood! Then I’ll leave, see you until next time!”

When he finished, he turned around and walked away.

Jiang Jiu looked at Ye Xuan. She kept looking at him until he completely disappeared at the end of the distance. Then she shook her head and said, “What a nerd...”

After four hours, Ye Xuan boarded the Cloud Ship to the Imperial Capital.

Ye Xuan had the Purple Card, so he lived in a top grade room for free!

Inside the Prison World Tower.

On the deck of the Cloud Ship, Ye Xuan looked closely at the little wooden figurine of Ye Ling in his hand with a light smile hanging on his mouth corners.

After so many days, he worried about Ye Ling the most!

He had never been away from Ye Ling for such a long time!

Seemingly thinking of something, he took out the small wooden figurine of An Lanxiu. Looking at the little wooden figurine in his hand, the smile hanging on his mouth corners became more brilliant! But soon, his smile gradually disappeared, leaving only the solemnity!

An Lanxiu!

He looked up to the end of the sky in the distance. After met a few times with An Lanxiu, he certainly knew that the origin of An Lanxiu was not simple. She was the one even the Drunken Fairy Building and the Cangmu College didn’t dare to easily offend. Could her origin be normal?

After a while, a touch of smile emerged on Ye Xuan’s mouth corners. “I will come to you! At that time, I will kill whoever dares to stop me!”

It was then that a black shadow suddenly appeared in the sky above the Cloud Ship. The next moment, a horrible pressure accompanied by an illusory giant palm abruptly fell from the sky like a thunder!

The moment when the powerful pressure appeared, the whole Cloud Ship was directly cracked open!

Countless horrified screams constantly sounded!

On the deck of the Cloud Ship, the instant when Ye Xuan saw the illusory giant palm fell, his pupils shrank all in a sudden and he immediately jumped out of the Cloud Ship without the slightest hesitation...

The Cloud Ship was more than a thousand meters above the ground!

However, he had no choice but to jump off the boat at this moment. If he didn’t jump, he would surely die when the palm fell down on the boat. While he might still get a slim chance of survival if he jumped!

Just when Ye Xuan jumped off the Cloud Ship, the entire Cloud Ship behind him instantly burst open.

And Ye Xuan was constantly falling toward the bottom of the Cloud Ship, with an increasing speed... But at his current falling speed, he would definitely become a puddle of muddy flesh when he hit the ground!

Not to mention him, even if a monster in the Secluding Realm fell from such a high place, it would be smashed to pieces!

At an ever-increasingly faster speed, Ye Xuan’s clothes were torn to pieces...
