Supreme Emperor of Swords Chapter 301 - When the Man Was still Alive

Chapter 301 When the Man Was still Alive

Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
A shower of sparks fell on the ground. Zhang Wenzhao looked frightened and staggered back.
A ghostly figure just happened to show up behind Zhang Fan. His sword light was like a cold star and it shook Zhang Wenzhao away.
The man was slim and thin with a black gown. He also wore a black scarf on his face. He seemed to be an unclimbable wall and covered Zhang Fan. With a thin sword in his hand, he struck out with his sword extremely fast so that it was hard to capture. One sword shook away Zhang Wenzhao. The sword was shinning so that it instantly shook away those young people in green shirts who had rushed to join in the fight.
“Let’s go!” The black-scarf-masked man held Zhang Fan, who was almost exhausted. They leaped forward and ran away.
At the alley entrance, Tian Heng felt numb all over by Zhang Fan’s shaking and he could not block it.
However, he did not mean to block them.
He had a strange smile on his face.
Because the moment when Zhang Fan and the black-scarf-masked man were about to leap out of the alley entrance, something incredible suddenly happened. The two people seemed to have hit an invisible wall, so with a rat-tat sound, they bounced back and fell on the ground as they looked slightly embarrassed.
“Was there also an ambush?”
“I’ve cultivated my sword skill for a dozen years. Once I draw my sword out of the scabbard, I’m capable of shaking the world. I don’t care whether you’re good or bad, or whether you are friends or enemies, and I do care about money!”
With a clear voice, a young man with a calm and smiling face, stepped down on the ground from half a meter high with the dust blowing like a gray lotus blossoming. Step by step and lotus by lotus, like a fairy, he approached Tian Heng.
That person did not have such a strong Qi volatility.
But standing quietly, like a high mountain, his thin body cross-blocked the alley entrance so that there was no way out, and even the light was blocked, making the whole alley dark.
“Senior Brother Sword Indignant!”
Tian Heng and Zhang Wenzhao and the others changed their faces and bowed to him respectfully.
That newly emerging young man who seemed to step on lotuses was the Sword Indignant, one of the famous inner disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, and a superior at the Fulfillment level of the Grand-master. Unlike the ordinary inner disciples, the Sword Indignant was well-known to have great strength. Just one step further and he could be a true core disciple. With an extremely high status, Tian Heng and others dared not neglect him.
The Sword Indignant nodded slightly, and then his eyes focused on Zhang Fan and the black-scarf-masked man who was holding Zhang Fan.
“Allow yourself to be seized without putting up a fight. I am here, so you can’t escape,” he said with a smile.
Nobody could doubt what he said.
Even Zhang Fan, who had never given up, had a low-spirited expression in his deep eyes.
“Since we can’t escape, let’s fight to the death.” The black-scarf-masked man laid his sword across his chest with his momentum climbing up.
The handsome swordsman Zhang Wenzhao walked a little step forward, so he regretted and said, “Senior Brother Fang, why? For a traitor who betrayed the Sect, is it worthwhile to sacrifice your own good future?”
“Of course it is worthwhile because he is my friend.” The masked man took off the black scarf, revealing a handsome white face, a fascinating look, dashing eyebrows and star-like eyes. He was Fang Tianyi, the well-known sword master in the Eastern Academy of Green Shirts.
“You’re willing to abandon yourself to vice!” Tian Heng mocked disdainfully.
Fang Tianyi laughed: “How can a servile bond-servant of Lu Pengfei’s like you understand the true friendship between true men? You said that I was willing to abandon myself to vice, but I feel that you are very pitiful. In order to obtain some cultivating resources and an ethereal promise, you don’t take into consideration the dignity as a Senior Brother in the Inner Core and are willing to be instructed by the villain, Lu Pengfei. You are not as good as a dog!”
“You…” Tian Heng was angered by Fang Tianyi so that he looked ghastly pale and was trembling all over.
He was already an inner disciple, but he submitted himself to the direction given by Lu Pengfei as a nominal disciple and he had been criticized by many people. It was his pain. At the moment he was being unceremoniously singled out by Fang Tianyi in public, and he was about to blow up.
“Why should Senior Brother Tian fuss with such a courageous idiot?” The handsome swordsman Zhang Wenzhao smiled and said, “Fang Tianyi, do you know, Senior Brother Lu has long been aware of your misconduct, deliberately releasing news to lure you into rescuing Zhang Fan, in order for you to be ensnared. Hehe. Unfortunately you were in the dark. You still like to show off your brute courage. As for being pitiful, I think that you are the most pitiful person.”
“Ha ha ha ha…” Fang Tianyi burst into laughter. He said, “Zhang Wenzhao, you are a clown who fancies himself clever. For Lu Pengfei’s mind as a hypocrite, how could I not figure it out? But a true man should do certain things and refrain from doing others. Knowing that my friend was in trouble, how can I sit by idly and remain indifferent? What of my falling into a snare? I, Fang Tianyi, act if I feel no qualms upon self-examination. If I wouldn’t have come today, that would truly be pitiful!”
“You…” Zhang Wenzhao, Tian Heng and the others all changed their faces.
Actually they were very stupid and ridiculous words, but out of that boy’s mouth, they unexpectedly gave people a shock, so that all the disciples who were involved in the killing plan had a shameful feeling.
“Hum. Stupid.” The Sword Indignant snorted with disdain.
However, no one noticed that a complicated feeling flashed in the depths of his eyes.
During the talk, Zhang Fan, who was seriously injured, finally breathed out slowly. With a little bit of power to speak, the teenager hunter stood up steadily while supported with his sword. He sighed and said, “Tianyi, you shouldn’t have come.”
Fang Tianyi shook his head and solemnly said, “I should have.”
“As you know clearly that it was a trap planned by Lu Pengfei, you showed up at this time, which helped him find a fault against you. It did not help. Once you’re also charged with rebellion against the Sect, then the Eastern Academy of Green Shirts will really become Lu Pengfei’s world… You should keep a useful identity and lead our brothers with justice to fight against Lu Pengfei and wait for Senior Brother Ding Hao to come back.”
“If I didn’t come today, I would not be able to explain it to Senior Brother Ding in the future.”
“But the Eastern Academy of Green Shirts…”
“Future things will be dealt with in the future. Today I come to just care about you,” Fang Tianyi said firmly.
Listening to the short conversation between the two teenagers, unexpectedly, many people could not help but think of the figure that had disappeared for four or five months. His rusted sword was like lightning and it was irresistible, and he always had a gentle smile. All people who had dealt with him felt a touch of warmth.
When that man was still in the Sect, the Eastern Academy of Green Shirts had been very popular, and it was a monolithic whole internally.
Brothers were bent on cultivation, and everyone could feel a positive energy that was flourishing, but at the moment…
Lu Pengfei’s sudden emergence did not bring any benefits to the disciples of the Eastern Academy of Green Shirts. Instead, he himself had gotten a lot of benefits, and the Eastern Academy had became segregated with a foul atmosphere. In the five academies, the Eastern Academy of Green Shirts had also been completely suppressed by the Central Academy of White Shirts, and even the momentum of the Western Academy of Yellow Shirts was faintly above the Eastern Academy.
