Supreme Emperor of Swords Chapter 541 - Turning into a Demon
Chapter 541 Turning into a Demon
Such a person was a true monster.
“What should I do? Where is my weakness?”
Ding Hao was lost in thought.
Ji Yingqi was sitting quietly not far away.
She had already taken a Nine Yang Heart-luring Pill so that her face gradually became ruddy. She was in better spirits, and the vitality in her body was no longer dispersing. While sitting in the inscription array, she watched what was happening calmly with her eyebrows knitted, as if she were thinking about something.
As for her illusion in the distance, vivid as she was, she seemingly lacked agility. At this time, she had nothing to do and was simply looking around. The three fierce battles in front of her were like wonderful performances in her eyes.
“Brother Ding, deploy a move without room for maneuver and you will win the battle!” she shouted all of a sudden.
Ding Hao, who was in the distance, was stunned for a moment, and then took a tumble.
It was a dark and stormy night.
“I hate traitors the most in my life. What right do you have to talk to me?”
In the camp for the joint invaders, Han Yangjian sat in the prominent seat, adopting a condescending manner. He gazed at the man who had unexpectedly appeared in the tent.
“I only betrayed Li Jianyi, not the whole Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, because Li Jianyi cannot represent the sect.” The man’s eyes were full of unwillingness and jealousy.
Han Yangjian’s gaze, like a sharp saber, swept over the man, as if to distinguish whether he was telling the truth or not.
“Brother Han, you can’t trust this person!” Fang Xiaoan stepped forward and said, “As one of the key subordinates of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, Tang Folei is very experienced and grasps the authority of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. He is a man of his word. Although there was once a conflict between him and Li Jianyi, it was later proved to be a scheme set up by the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect…”
“Oh? Was he on bad terms with Li Jianyi?” Han Yangjian narrowed his eyes slightly.
Fang Xiaoan was stunned and realized that he had misspoken, so he immediately said, “Yes, but it was an illusion they exhibited on purpose. Later, it was confirmed that we had been deceived by this trap. Since his man is extremely crazy about the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, I’m afraid he is up to something.”
Han Yangjian looked at Tang Folei and said, “Do you have anything else to say?”
Tang Folei laughed coldly and said, “I said that I did betray Li Jianyi, not the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. The purpose of setting a trap to kill our enemies was for the interests of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. Today, I came here for the benefits of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect as well. As for Li Jianyi, a selfish and self-centered person such as him wasn’t worth me continuing to work for him.”
“It’s sheer nonsense.” Fang Xiaoan snorted.
Han Yangjian’s eyes narrowed, and rays of glaring light flashed as he opened or closed his eyes. He said word by word, “I appreciate your courage, for you actually dare to come here alone. However, you must remember that you have to pay the price rather than make empty promises if you want to win your enemy’s trust.”
Tang Folei smiled and asked, “What proof do you want?”
Han Yangjian burst into laughter and scoffed. “For example, Li Jianyi’s head, or Qi Qingshan’s head, which is just as convincing.”
Tang Folei was apparently not surprised by what Han Yangjian said. Instead of getting angry, he said with great confidence, “It’s easy as long as you agree to my condition.”
“Oh? What’s your condition? Just tell me.” Han Yangjian stayed calm and collected.
“I will help you kill Li Jianyi and Qi Qingshan, and despoil the mysterious crystal mine back in the mountain. You’ll obtain all the resources and treasures of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. As for me, I only want to be the head of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.” Tang Folei’s eyes flashed with a strange brilliance.
Han Yangjian chuckled and said, “Without Li Jianyi and Qi Qingshan, how will the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect survive?”
Tang Folei said calmly, “Actually, slaughtering the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect is not the most advantageous choice for your Heaven-Splitting Swordsmanship Sect. Although you can get the mysterious crystal mine, you won’t be able to mine all the ores for a year or so since they are many in number and are located in the deep crypts which are more than 600 meters underground. If you kill nearly 10,000 people of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, who will help you mine the ores? Who will assist you transport them? Who will do such trivial matters? A large number of miners are required to excavate these divine treasures.”
Han Yangjian nodded subconsciously and said, “Go on.”
Tang Folei added, “The super sects like the Heaven-Splitting Swordsmanship Sect turn their noses up at the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, but it will take too much time for you to assemble slaves and miners since Snow Province and Sword Province are thousands of miles apart. On the contrary, if you give up killing them and force them to work, the problem of lacking manpower can be completely solved. There are more than 10,000 people on the Swordsmanship-seeking Mountain at the moment, which is just enough to meet your mining needs. By virtue of the strength of the four of you, as long as you kill masters such as Li Jianyi and Qi Qingshan, you can totally control the sect. At that time, who else would dare to offend you? Everything would fall into your palm.”
Han Yangjian said with interest, “That’s a good great idea, but why should I keep the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect and dispatch you to be the head of the sect since I’m capable of enslaving them?”
“We can work in collusion. I’ll help you kill Qi Qingshan and Li Jianyi, especially the former one.” Tang Folei said calmly.
“Haha, it’s indeed a wishful thinking,” Han Yangjian burst out laughing, “Although Qi Qingshan possesses powerful strength, he is not invincible. Wan Jiansha, my Martial Uncle, will come over in a few days. As long as he gets here, I can do what you said without you.”
Tang Folei also burst into laughter and suddenly said, “Judging from your appearance, you’re at least a hundred years old now, right?”
Martial arts experts lived longer than ordinary people and their appearances also changed at an extremely slow speed.
An expert at the Martial King Realm at one hundred years old was in his prime of life. From his appearance, Han Yangjian was in his thirties, but he did not have an opportunity to enter the Sage Battlefield though he was at the peak of the Martial King Realm. He, therefore, must be over 50 years old, which indicated that he was not a super genius.
Generally speaking, a relatively talented martial artist would reach the peak of the Martial King Realm at 100 years old.
That was why Tang Folei had made such a guess.
Hearing what he said, Han Yangjian was stunned and asked, “What do you mean?”
Tang Folei said slowly, “To be honest, you’re just a second-rate talented martial artists among the hundred-year-old experts at the peak of the Martial King Realm in the Heaven-Splitting Swordsmanship Sect. The sect pays much attention to those top-notch geniuses than you, but you’re also one of the talents worth cultivating. Now it is high time that you project yourself. As long as you make great contributions to the Heaven-Splitting Swordsmanship Sect, you will immediately be valued by the superiors of the sect and get great training. On the contrary, you cut no figure during this period, you will be surpassed and eliminated by young talents in a dozen years. At that time, it’s impossible for you to receive attention from the sect.”
Han Yangjian unconsciously had already sat up straight.
It was obvious that Tang Folei’s words had hit the nail on the head.
He could not help but say, “Well, go on.”
Tang Folei nodded and continued, “It’s a rare chance for you to make a great contribution by suppressing the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. According to an initial estimate, there are at least five thousand square meters of mysterious crystal ores in the back mountain of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. As is known, they’re all top-grade mysterious crystals. Even in Sword Province, such a mine is also a valuable treasure, right?”
Han Yangjian nodded subconsciously.
Tang Folei smiled and said, “Once you win this treasure for the sect, you naturally do a deed of merit. But if you attack the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect after your Martial Uncle comes here, to whom the credit will go at that time? It absolutely will go to you. I’m afraid that you not only make a futile effort, but also be accused of incompetence. Four sword practitioners at the peak of the Martial King Realm will probably become a joke since you fail to destroy a small sect in Snow Province, no matter how many reasons you have.”
After Han Yangjian heard his words, his heart skipped a beat.
What Tang Folei said did torture his heart.
But it pointed out what he had been worried about these days directly.
Fang Xiaoan was filled with apprehension when he heard that.
He immediately knew that Han Yangjian was moved by what Tang Folei’s words as he observed his appearance and felt a little comfortable.
Others might be fooled by Tang Folei, but he would not. Because he knew very well that this man was indeed loyal to the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect after he was tricked by him when Ding Hao had passed the tribulation last time. He still remembered that the losses the Tranquility Academy had suffered, so he would not believe Tang Folei so easily.
“Brother Han, you can’t believe this person’s eloquence. This must be a trap…” Fang Xiaoan tried to convince Han Yangjian to change his mind.
“Shut up. Brother Han has his own idea on this matter.” Another sword practitioner, however, reproached him, not showing any mercy to the director of the Tranquility Academy at all.
“But…” Fang Xiaoan still wanted to say something more.
“Haha, it’s our Heaven-Splitting Swordsmanship Sect’s affair and none of your business. You nonentity, just get out.” Another sword practitioner of the Heaven-Splitting Swordsmanship Sect scolded with disdain.
Fang Xiaoan looked up and saw the four sword practitioners, including Han Yangjian, were looking at him unkindly.
He quivered and immediately realized that he had made a mistake.
Everyone was greedy.
Tang Folei threw out the most fatal bait, which hit the vital parts of the four sword practitioners of the Heaven-Splitting Swordsmanship Sect. They were all eager to make contributions and show their value to the sect, avoiding their contributions to be robbed by their Martial Uncle. Therefore, they absolutely would not follow his suggestion. In their view, they must think that he was opposing them.
Fang Xiaoan could only keep silent.
“Will I get stuck by a trap?” Han Yangjian smiled and said to Tang Folei after a short silence, “Well, Tang Folei, right? You are indeed a ruthless person. If you can hand over Qi Qingshan’s and Li Jianyi’s heads as you said, I can agree with your request and let you be the head of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect that is controlled by us.”
Such a person was a true monster.
“What should I do? Where is my weakness?”
Ding Hao was lost in thought.
Ji Yingqi was sitting quietly not far away.
