The Immortal Taoist

To others, 100,000 gold was simply an astronomical figure. Just being blackmailed by Elder Li, a few hundred silver would at most amount to a few thousand, and everything would be fine. Several hundred, several thousand taels, compared to a hundred thousand taels, there was still a huge difference.

"Madman, simply unreasonable!"

Elder Li"s martial arts cultivation was not high, and he was old as well. If he really was struck ruthlessly, it was still unclear whether he was dead or alive. As matters stood, Elder Li could only retreat with incomparable speed. Naturally, he did not dare to take his life as a joke.

"Heh …" You actually know how to dodge? "Can you hide?"

"I was just worried that I wouldn"t be able to spend a hundred thousand gold, but I didn"t expect the opportunity to come so soon!"

Ling Dao"s voice was loud, and the surrounding people could hear it loud and clear. Not to mention others, even the rest of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect s were dumbfounded. He never thought that Ling Dao would actually be so rich.

Elder Li did not dare to stay any longer. He used his fastest speed to escape into the inner parts of the County City. He no longer dared to stay here. Facing such a savage youth, he could only retreat. He had extorted so many people, but had never encountered Ling Dao as unreasonable as he was now.

Not only was the blackmail ineffective, Ling Dao had chased him until he could only flee for his life. Those who had been blackmailed by Elder Li in the past were vexed. They had wanted to deal with Elder Li since long ago, but unfortunately, with the support of the Anshan County"s Duke Palace, they did not dare act rashly.

"Relieving the Qi, that"s too relieving!"

"If I had one hundred thousand gold, I would smash that old man to death!"

After they laughed for a while, they looked towards Ling Dao and the carriage behind him. Within the Anshan County, there were four great forces: the Heavy Sword Sect, the Black Tortoise Sword Sect, the True Martial Sword Sect, and the Sky-splitting Sword Sect. Even if the Sky-splitting Sword Sect s were at the bottom of the list, they were existences that the other powers did not dare to offend.

"Aren"t we here at the Anshan County to watch the sword battle? That savage youngster should also be a Sky Cracking Sword Sect Disciple. Will he partic.i.p.ate in the sword battle? "

"Doesn"t look like it. He"s only fifteen years old, could it be that he"s already qualified to partic.i.p.ate in the Sword Discourse a.s.sembly?" No wonder Sky-splitting Sword Sect is only at the bottom, where can a fifteen year old be counted? "

Fifteen years old in Zhenqi realm pinnacle, amongst the tenth and ninth rank forces, it was indeed rare. They were not members of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect, so they naturally did not know of Ling Dao"s tyranny. In Sky-splitting Sword Sect, the number one person among the true qi realm disciples, was Ling Dao.

"Let"s go, into the city!"

In order to organize the Sword Compet.i.tion, the Anshan had built four palaces inside the city. In the center of the four palaces was the Sword Battlestage, which was used by the disciples of the five big powers to wield their swords. The battle sword compet.i.tion was held once every three years, so naturally, it was extremely grand.

When Duan Zhenghui said this, his expression was obviously extremely ugly. Zhuang Xin and the other eight elders also had extremely ugly expressions on their faces. Even many disciples of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect had turned silent.

This kind of situation caused Ling Dao to be extremely suspicious. He did not even know about the Sword Battlefield a.s.sembly, and what happened in the County City, he did not know either. He had wanted to ask, but the heavy atmosphere suppressed the doubts in his heart.

Other than Ling Dao, there were other disciples that were also partic.i.p.ating in the Duelling Sword Conference for the first time. Luo Zhener was one of them, but she had a face full of curiosity as she asked. Just as she finished speaking, the atmosphere in the plaza became even more oppressive.

"What a joke, the ignorant are truly fearless, is the Sword Fighting Palace a place for you all to live? Your Sect Master is staying in an inn, that"s for your own good, understand? "

Just as the others were at a loss as to how to answer Luo Zhener, five young men walked over. They were all carrying a large sword on their backs and wore the attire of a Heavy Sword Sect Disciple. Their eyes were filled with deep contempt.

The one who spoke was Heavy Sword Sect Disciple Xiahou Jue. The five of them were all Zhenqi realm pinnacle disciples, with Xiahou Jue as the leader, who was the strongest amongst them. At this time, Xiahou Jue was looking at Luo Zhener with a l.u.s.tful look, his eyes flickering with desire.

"You!"

Luo Zhener snorted in anger, but just as she was about to attack, she was stopped by an elder. This was the Anshan County"s County City, so naturally they would not allow them to cause trouble. It was forbidden to use force within the County City. Otherwise, the Duke had the right to suppress everything.

Just listen to me, there is no such thing as Sky-splitting Sword Sect"s Sky Cracking Hall. There are only four palaces, so naturally you will not have a share. So what if you guys went to the Sword Fighting Palace? Do you all sleep on the floor?

Xiahou Jue acted as if he was on top, looking extremely pleased with himself. As the Heavy Sword Sect Disciple, he had never looked up to the Sky-splitting Sword Sect. In his opinion, the disciples of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect s were also unable to withstand a single blow.

"Junior, is this how your family"s elders teach you?"

"That"s right, our elders in the Heavy Sword Sect had long said that your Sky-splitting Sword Sect is just a bunch of trash, what do you think?"
