Supreme Emperor of Swords Chapter 641 - A Master with No Sense of Direction

Chapter 641 A Master with No Sense of Direction

The three-headed, six-armed divine ape let out a roar from all its heads, shaking the ground like bursting thunders.
The loud noise made the ears of many people ring; their minds went blank.
The next moment, the giant white ape flashed into the green light with agility and speed that would not normally come from such a huge body. The extremely terrifying energy was spread out like raging waves on the sea.
The battle became fiercer at this moment.
“What’s going on? When did that scholar turn into a giant beast? Is he also a demon?”
“What do you know? This is Beast Transform, a real advanced move… It seems that the scholar in cyan is determined to kill. Don’t worry. Our Guo City is safe now!”
“The Beast Transform? It looks a little like the Evil White Ape of the legendary 72 Divine Beasts of Earth Evil. However, it has three heads and six arms, and its power and aura are far above that of the Evil White Ape!”
“No matter what it is, if this man can turn the tide and save Guo City, I will build a golden statue of him and burn incense to worship him as a god every day!”
Countless people were praying that the seemingly god-sent sword master could really save the city.
The battle in the sky came to an end as people were watching and praying—
With a roar of anger and panic, a giant bloody leg fell from the green light ball.
It was as big as a small mountain. The green fur was akin to steel spears, shining with a metallic luster; they were extremely sharp, as if made of some rare metal. Even though it had been severed from the body, it still emitted a fierce aura. An expert at the Martial King realm would be crushed when coming near it.
Someone cheered with relief, “The Demon Royal is injured!”
The mysterious human expert had gained the upper hand after performing the Beast Transform.
Shrill roars kept resounding in the sky.
Broken limbs and green blood fell from the night sky like pouring rain, sprinkling over the inscription shield of the city and beyond. The ground sizzled when it was touched by the blood, forming bottomless pits.
In the night sky, the previous sun-like sphere of green light began to dim down.
People could vaguely see the giant ape wave its swords and sabers. He moved nimbly while using moves of classic styles. Even though his swordsmanship wasn’t exquisite, it looked skillful and simple. The horrifying power of the gloomy white Qi was spread out, suppressing the spider-shaped green demon. Parts of the monster were cut off with every strike.
“Splash!”
Copious blood poured from the sky. Another leg of the beast was cut off.
“Human, you will pay…” Roaring with panic and anger, the Demon Royal couldn’t withstand the onslaught of attacks anymore. It turned into a green flowing light and fled to the west after being slashed by the sword and losing another of its massive legs.
The giant divine ape did not give chase.
After a move, its colossal body suddenly shrank. It transformed back into the shape of the handsome scholar in a cyan robe, who stretched out his hand and waved it in the void. The three fallen Demon Royal legs turned into a flowing light that later vanished in his hand. Then, with a flash, he disappeared on the spot.
The night sky—which had originally been filled with the sounds of fighting and demon roars—suddenly quieted down.
Beasts stopped roaring in the surroundings of Guo City and the ground no longer trembled.
If someone looked down from the sky, they would see tens of millions of demons and giant beasts around Guo City that were also retreating in panic when the Demon Royal fled. No one dared to stay any longer.
A Martial Emperor realm expert was capable enough to kill tens of millions of low-level demons.
That was the power wielded by super experts.
After a while, the whole city burst into cheers.
However, they could no longer see the scholar in cyan robe.
In the empty dark street.
Master Wu and Zhu Hong exchanged looks and saw the mutual unconcealed happiness and shock in each other’s eyes.
The two of them couldn’t help but feel frightened at the moment. A chilling cold rose from the tailbone, blowing their minds.
They had been to the Earth Tiger Inn to make trouble for the scholar in cyan, especially Master Wu, who wanted to humiliate him by defeating the man in swordplay…
It seemed that the scholar had not been serious when fighting against him. Ten thousand copies of him would have been no match for a single finger of that man, if he had gone all out as he did with the Demon Royal.
Zhu Hong had been holding a grudge against him, wanting to exact revenge in the name of the City Lord’s Mansion.
But he was scared out of his wits at the moment. It was lucky enough to return alive and lose only one finger, having provoked such a super expert.
“Let’s go and never mention tonight’s matter.” Master Wu was still in a state of shock as he held Zhu Hong’s arm and flew away.
Zhu Hong was so scared that he couldn’t say anything at the moment.
Gu Xing’er felt the weight lift off her body and was finally able to move.
She immediately turned around and saw Ding Hao standing behind her, wearing his cyan robe; he had a smile on his face.
“Nerd… You… Just now… Was it really you?” Gu Xing’er was so shocked that she couldn’t even speak properly.
The whole Earth Tiger Inn was still quiet at the moment. Everyone was in a deep sleep; the place had been covered by some magic power that blocked out all the noise. Therefore, everyone in the inn was sleeping quite soundly, completely oblivious to everything that had happened outside.
Ding Hao said with a smile, “Miss Gu, please keep everything that happened today a secret for me.”
Gu Xing’er nodded. She couldn’t help but ask, “You’re so strong… Why won’t you let others know?”
Ding Hao smiled and said, “Because of some special reasons, I don’t want others to know my whereabouts.”
“But you’ve already made your move tonight. Many people saw it…” Gu Xing’er continued, confused.
Ding Hao shook his head and said, “It’s all right. They can’t see my face. The two just now would not dare to wag their tongues. There’s no need to be concerned if someone finds out later on.”
“Oh, don’t worry, I won’t even tell my brother.” Thousands of strange ideas came up in her mind as she stood in front of Ding Hao; she also felt a little pressure, not knowing what else to say. A trace of vigilance flashed across her face after a while. She said, “Why is a super expert like you hiding in our caravan?”
Ding Hao said embarrassedly, “Uh… I just want to go to Sword Province with you. I really don’t know the way.”
“You can’t find the way to Sword Province, even with your capability?” Gu Xing’er said with obvious disbelief, “don’t tell me you’re from the Northern Region. You can’t be a demon, can you?”
Ding Hao was speechless. He helplessly spread his hands and admitted, “You’re overthinking… I just have a terrible sense of direction.”
Gu Xing’er replied with an “oh”. She still didn’t quite believe it though, judging from her expression.
It wasn’t her fault. If it were someone else, they would probably not believe that a super expert who could defeat a Demon Royal had no sense of direction, either.
“Well, that’s it. Have some rest.” Ding Hao returned to his room.
Gu Xing’er looked at Ding Hao’s back affectionately.
“This nerd was really a super master.” It was far beyond her wildest imagination.
She had originally thought that this type of person was too distant from her life. She didn’t expect to have close contact with such a legendary figure.
Besides, it was said that some super masters had lived for hundreds or even thousands of years. That nerd looked as young as an eighteen-year-old. Was the youthful look a result of his profound magic skills?
Gu Xing’er was lost in thought while standing in the quiet courtyard.
Could any girl not fall in love?
Gu Xing’er was a proud and unyielding girl who rarely paid any attention to the men around her. Her heart, which had been as quiet as a thousand-year-old ice mountain, had begun to move without her noticing.
The next day.
“What? He has left Guo City?” The black-haired inspector was extremely disappointed.
One of the Mysterious Frost Holy Guards reported, “Yes, Your Excellency. I investigated all the people who came and went in that direction. The shopkeeper of the Earth Tiger Inn and the guests in the inn saw a scholar in a cyan robe. I’ve drawn a portrait according to their description and found it looked very similar to the sword master from yesterday. However, they claimed that this scholar was no different from ordinary people, someone who didn’t seem to be a martial artist. He was following an unknown caravan going to the Sword Province.”
“Oh? Going to the Sword Province?” The inspector took the portrait and studied it carefully. Suddenly, a name flashed across his mind.
Had the slayer who had turned the Snow Province upside down paid a visit to the Earth Province?
It was said that there was long-standing enmity between him and the Heaven-Splitting Swordsmanship Sect. Was he going after the Heaven-Splitting Swordsmanship Sect in the Sword Province?
