Chapter 35: Yan Kun’s Shock
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“This kid is a real monster!”
On the surface, Yan Kun did not look any different from his usual appearance. But in truth, there was a huge uproar in his heart.
“So it’s swordsman Yan, please sit!”
Victor stood up and extended his hand to invite Yan Kun to sit.
He would not simply believe everyone’s information of Yan Kun in the discussion forum, but sharing a table and having a meal together was not a problem.
“Junior elder…”
Upon seeing Victor’s actions, Hua Feng broke out into cold sweat.
Didn’t he see the reactions of the others in the inn?
If they were to have a meal with such a foreign strong person, with his power, they would not even have the time to react if the other party attacked.
At this moment, the stern orders of Song Xiuwen and Yu Haoming when they descended the mountain appeared in Hua Feng’s mind once again.
No, he had to keep junior elder away from this swordsman.
Hua Feng decided that even if he had to sacrifice himself, he would let Junior Elder Victor leave this dangerous inn.
Just as he was about to shout to attract the opposite party’s attention, he felt Junior Elder Victor’s right hand pressing hard on his shoulder.
Victor glared at him and interrupted Hua Feng’s behavior, saying, “It’s okay. Swordsman Yan is full of righteousness and doesn’t look like a bad person. He definitely won’t bully children like us. Am I right, Swordsman Yan?”
“Haha…”
Yan Kun laughed and said, “Little brother, with your capabilities, there are no more than five people in this inn who can bully you.
“However, you are wrong about one thing. If you kill innocents indiscriminately and do all kinds of evil, even children should be punished accordingly. It’s only right and proper for you to pay with your life!”
What a powerful aura!
Hua Feng sighed in his heart. Hearing Yan Kun’s response, especially the last few words, he trembled in fear.
However, Yan Kun’s cold face suddenly became soft. He smiled and said,
“This is the territory of the Qingyun Sect. Judging from your Qingyun clan robe, if I’m not mistaken.
“Little brother, you’re not only a disciple of the Qingyun Sect, but also the new disciple of Sect Master Zhang, right?
“A few months ago, Sect Master Zhang took in another disciple.
“It must be you!”
“You…”
Hua Feng, who had been on high alert and had his guard on Yan Kun all this while, was shocked when he heard Yan Kun’s words.
He was shocked to hear what Yan Kun had said. He gripped the edge of the stool tightly with both hands.
“Big brother, you have a good eye! I am indeed the sect leader’s new disciple. My name is Victor!”
Seeing that his ident.i.ty had been recognized, Victor did not hide and admitted to it.
After all, with the other party’s strength, if he really wanted to make a move against Victor, they had no chance against him.
Most importantly, Victor did not feel any malicious intent from Yan Kun.
Yan Kun, who was at the side, heard Victor’s straightforward answer. He could not help but be stunned.
This kid was actually so calm while handling his inquiries. He was very calm from the beginning to the end.
He really was extraordinary!
“Sect Leader Zhang is really lucky to receive such a talented and sensible disciple!”
Yan Kun looked at Victor, his eyes filled with enthusiasm, and his mouth was full of praise.
This expression was the exact same as when Zhang Lingren saw Victor and decided to take him as a disciple.
In the World of Martial Arts, taking in a disciple was a very important aspect.
In reality, for every master, the status of a disciple was equal to that of their children.
As the old saying goes: once a teacher, always a father.
Therefore, in the first half of a warrior’s life, they would do their best to pursue the limits of martial arts.
In the latter half of their life, they would hope to find a few talented, obedient and sensible disciples to inherit their knowledge.
In Yan Kun’s eyes, Zhang Lingren’s martial arts life, whether it was the first half or the second half of his life, was essentially perfect.
“No, brother, I’m lucky to be able to take the sect leader as my master!”
Victor corrected him.
Yan Kun’s eyes lit up. “Good, well said!”
It was already hard to find a disciple with outstanding talent. Moreover, a disciple who even respected his master was one in ten thousand.
“Brother, where are you going?”
Victor’s eyes flashed. If they were going the same way…
When the system update was completed, he could download it…
Victor’s eyes were filled with antic.i.p.ation.
Not to mention Yan Kun’s talent, his Blood Shadow sword technique was an incredibly powerful set of sword techniques.
And… Tiangang G.o.dly technique and so on.
Hua Feng, who was beside him, cursed when he heard this.
” Big brother, is there a need to ask such a question?”
When one enters the world, the most taboo thing was to inquire about other people’s private affairs. Where they came from, where they went, these were all taboo.
Hua Feng directly sat on Victor’s side from the east side of the square table.
He looked at Yan Kun nervously and reminded Victor in a low voice, “Junior elder, don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask!”
Seeing Hua Feng’s actions, Victor wasn’t bothered. Through the exchange just now, he was sure that Yan Kun’s character was consistent to the summary in the forum.
Although Yan Kun had killed countless people, he had killed those who deserved to be killed.
Hearing Victor’s question, Yan Kun suddenly sighed and said,
“I’m on a journey to complete a personal matter.”
Yan Kun did not hide it, of course, he did not say it in detail. He said it in a very general manner.
However, Victor already had a rough idea of what Yan Kun was going to do next.
If he remembered correctly, no matter how good your relationship with Yan Kun was, he would never truly acknowledge you unless he had completed his revenge.
Yan Kun had spent his entire life working hard for this one thing and that was to avenge his sister Yan Yan!
And the culprit for Yan Yan’s death was her fiancé, Jiang w.a.n.g.
Yan Kun glanced at Victor and Hua Feng and asked, “What about you two?”
Victor was about to speak, but Hua Feng immediately interrupted him. He said, “We’re just out for a stroll. We don’t have any special aims. We’re just looking around.”
Seeing Hua Feng’s vague answer, Yan Kun only smiled and didn’t ask any more questions.
Not long after.
The dishes the three of them ordered were finally served.
Meanwhile, Victor and Yan Kun were chatting while eating.
Those who weren’t aware of the situation would think that they were old friends that had recently reunited.
“Brother, Jiangnan is a good place. If you have the time, you can go there for a walk. Perhaps you will gain some findings.”
Before parting, Victor left a message for Yan Kun.
Victor naturally wanted to go with Yan Kun. It was not easy to meet him. Putting aside the talent that would take a long time to download, he had to at least download one of Yan Kun’s cultivation methods and martial arts techniques.
However, this would be different from his original plan.
He had two goals.
One was to find the Tree Building technique.
The other was to go to the Northern wilderness and get his hands on the Jade Marrow Dew.
Yan Kun’s goal was to find Jiang w.a.n.g. He was looking for clues everywhere. It would definitely be different from Victor’s path.
Moreover, if he met with an accident, he would return empty-handed.
So, is following the other party around or his original plan more secure.
Most importantly, Yan Kun was dealing with his own personal matters. It would not be easy for an outsider like him to blend in.
Half an hour later.
The three of them were full from drinking and eating.
It had to be said that Yan Kun’s appeal was really strong. Even Hua Feng drank two big bowls of wine with him and let his guard down.
In the end, Yan Kun took a short break and bid farewell to Victor and Hua Feng.
Victor and Hua Feng planned to take a good rest for the night. After all, they would need to travel non-stop for a period of time.
The next day.
Early in the morning, Victor and Hua Feng headed west.
Half a month later in the evening, they arrived at the foot of Tianluo Mountain.
