Chapter 84: Thunder in the Silent Place!
Chu Yang may only be at the fourth tier of the sword emperor's cultivation level, but after assimilating the spirit of the first-generation nine calamity sword master, his spirit and spiritual perception have indeed become the number one in the world!
His spiritual perception spread out like a heavenly net and earthly web, extending hundreds of feet in silence. When Chu Yang closed his eyes, it was as if he could see everything. In the distance, atop a tall tower, a small figure dressed in white drifted at the peak, appearing like a ghostly apparition in the morning light.
He seemed to be waiting, scrutinizing the entrance of the Law Enforcement Hall, without moving closer.
At this moment, that figure turned his gaze toward Chu Yang's direction. Despite being a hundred feet away, Chu Yang felt a sharp pain on his head as if a needle had pierced through it.
A chill ran down Chu Yang's spine.
Even from such a distance, he could still sense the murderous intent! The piercing gaze from so far away was still so fierce! This person must at least be a... lord-level expert!
With his head bowed, Chu Yang remained still, like a sentimental youth gazing at a bouquet of swaying wildflowers by the roadside, his focus deep and affectionate.
But within his heart, an overwhelming battle intent suddenly surged!
My strength has been restored!
I am now a fourth-tier sword emperor!
In comparison to this person, my strength is vastly inferior!
However, I have yet to test how powerful my attacks are after this breakthrough!
The arrival of this person is a touchstone!
Sharpening a knife will certainly wear it down, but if you don’t sharpen it, it will rust away.
The Sword Spirit remained silent and made no suggestions. Ever since Chu Yang's cultivation level had been restored, the Sword Spirit understood that opportunities for it to intervene in the future would diminish. The only way for Chu Yang to grow rapidly was to face one crisis after another on his own!
Its role would be to help him turn the tide in life-and-death situations!
Feeling the rising battle intent in his heart, Chu Yang remained calm as ice and snow. Although his battle power had increased and his cultivation level had broken through, the gap between him and this opponent was still vast.
Even if I want to sharpen my knife, I cannot recklessly seek my own death!
I must take some measures.
In the next moment, Chu Yang gently raised his head, a warm smile gracing his face, like a youth enjoying the morning light, completely at ease. He stepped forward gracefully.
Heading in another direction.
This direction led to the outskirts of Wujin Town.
The path was lush with green grass, wildflowers swayed, the morning breeze flowed, and clouds drifted in the sky.
Chu Yang walked leisurely, occasionally stopping, hands clasped behind his back, admiring the yellow flowers and green grasses on either side. His brows relaxed, and his gaze softened, as if carrying an inexplicable youthfulness, reluctant to disturb the slumber of the flowers and trees, moving gently and tenderly.
Not raising a speck of dust.
He walked toward the outskirts of Wujin Town.
The moment he looked up, a hundred feet away, Old Three Ma quickly unfolded a portrait and took a quick glance. Just this quick glance confirmed for him that this youth, wearing a gentle smile and an air of melancholy, was indeed the target he was meant to kill today!
At such a distance, even a lord-level expert might not detect me! Let alone this youth with no cultivation at all! So Old Three Ma felt no worry.
Then, like a streak of flowing light, Old Three Ma floated toward this side.
He noticed Chu Yang changing direction and heading toward the edge of the town, which made him hesitate for a moment.
Killing Chu Yang here would certainly be good, but... the Chu family's young master dying in Wujin Town would surely provoke a fierce backlash from the Chu Family. Moreover, this was a sensitive time for Chu Feilong, which might hinder him.
