31: Is he dead, buddy?

Neither Li Yu nor the man in luxurious clothes expected this result!

They knew the strength of Wang Li's confidant all too well.

There were no fakes among the men under this man's command.

But such an elite hadn't even lasted a single round against Chen Xian, who was at the Qi Refining Fourth Layer!

What did this mean?

For a moment, both of their gazes fell upon Chen Xian.

This man was definitely not simple!

This was the thought that occurred simultaneously to the brother and sister.

At this moment, Chen Xian looked back at the man who had fallen.

He quickly trotted over.

Without any dignity, he poked the corpse, which had died with its eyes open, with his sword.

"Wait, bro, you're dead?"

Chen Xian looked at the other party with a bewildered face.

He thought they could exchange a few moves!

But he was insta-killed in one move?

He looked at Li Yu with a strange expression.

"You didn't specifically arrange for someone like this just to test if I'm qualified to be your shield, did you?"

Li Yu shook her head.

"I'm not that bored!"

"However, your strength..."

"Sigh, I just used all my strength, and now I'm even a bit dizzy."

As he spoke, Chen Xian pretended to be exhausted, leaning on his sword against the ground, panting heavily.

It was just that his acting was a bit too clumsy.

For a moment, both Li Yu and her brother were speechless.

"But, Brother-in-law, you won't come looking for trouble with me, will you?"

Hearing Chen Xian's words, the man in luxurious clothes burst into laughter.

"To be honest, you're not worthy of me causing trouble for you yet!"

"The famous 'trash' Young Master in Jubei City is not only a cultivator, but a Sword Cultivator!"

"Hahahaha, interesting, interesting!"

"Little sister, I'll take my leave today. However, since Wang Li's subordinate is dead, he won't let this matter rest!"

Li Yu hadn't even had the chance to speak.

Chen Xian stood up from the ground.

"Cough, cough, who said he's dead?"

"Hmm?"

"This brave warrior originally intended to help the elderly and weak in the city tonight, but accidentally encountered a Demonic Cultivator causing trouble in the city during the day. After a fierce battle, he was eventually defeated and taken away by the Demonic Cultivator."

As he spoke, he picked up the storage ring and identity information from the man.

Then, he took out a box of matches.

He slowly ignited it on the body.

"Here, there's nothing but the charred corpse of a Demonic Cultivator!"

While Chen Xian was talking, flames were already burning fiercely on the man's body.

The man in luxurious clothes watched dumbfoundedly as Chen Xian told lies with a straight face.

Especially, how did this guy manage to use matches to ignite a corpse so shamelessly?

"Hahahaha, little sister, I'm looking forward to his future performance!"

After saying that, the man in luxurious clothes left directly.

As for Li Yu, she looked at Chen Xian with a complex expression.

"What? You haven't fallen in love with me because I'm so handsome, have you?"

Li Yu: "..."

If it was the part where Chen Xian insta-killed Wang Li's confidant, Li Yu indeed found it impressive.

But Chen Xian's subsequent actions were a bit too pathetic.

Whether it was poking the corpse with a sword...

Or destroying the evidence.

It could be called loser behavior!

"Come back with me tonight and learn a Technique!"

"Huh?"

"Using matches is too low-end!"

Chen Xian: "..."

The three people and one dog returned to the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion.

Seeing the fire Cultivation Technique Li Yu threw at him...

Chen Xian warily didn't open it immediately, but asked seriously: "This isn't for a fee, right?"

Li Yu sneered.

"If you can learn it, then there's no fee!"

Chen Xian grabbed it immediately.

"Since it's free, might as well learn it."

After Li Yu left, Chen Xian sent Zhou Duoer and Da Huang to sleep.

He held the Cultivation Technique in his hands and read it with great interest.

"Tsk! Cultivators focus on Spiritual Roots; what attribute of Spiritual Root determines what Cultivation Technique one can learn. But I don't have a Spiritual Root, only a sword body. I wonder if I can learn it!"

Chen Xian was a bit hesitant, lest he accidentally set himself on fire while learning.

That would be the end of me.

He took out the notebook given to him by the Fearless Sword Saint.

It contained some of the Fearless Sword Saint's insights!

"The Invincible Sword Body has no taboos! It can learn all methods, and when used in conjunction with Sword Qi, the power is even greater!"

Seeing this sentence...

Chen Xian felt a burst of excitement in his heart.

No wonder those with special Physiques were called the favored ones of the Heavenly Dao!

A practitioner's Spiritual Root is most important. If it's a water Spiritual Root, then one cannot learn Fire-attribute Cultivation Techniques, or else the result will be half the effort for twice the work!

But his Invincible Sword Body didn't have this restriction!

This was practically equivalent to being able to learn infinitely!

Chen Xian continued to flip through a few more pages.

His gaze finally stopped at a corner of the notebook.

"I comprehended Sword Intent at the age of ten. Since then, over the decades, I have accumulated ten thousand strands of Sword Intent, and have increasingly discovered that the depth of the Dao of the Sword is far greater than other paths!"

"There are three thousand Great Daos, and the path of the sword most emphasizes Aptitude and talent, as well as timing, location, and people! My ten thousand strands of Sword Intent can be divided into various attributes, which can then exert different combined Sword Skills..."

When Chen Xian read this passage...

He was completely stunned!

Sword Intent!

He knew this represented proof of how far one could go on the path of the sword!

In his knowledge, the strongest Sword Cultivator was none other than that Immortal Sword Saint in the Central Continent!

The Sword Intent he comprehended was said to be eight thousand!

This Sword Saint once asserted: Three thousand strands of Sword Intent can flatten the Nine Provinces!

With eight thousand strands, it would not only prolong his life but also allow him to reach a Peak in the Dao of the Sword!

Chen Xian didn't expect that his cheap Revered Master had actually accumulated ten thousand strands of Sword Intent.

No wonder!

He said he wanted to cut down the Saints of the Thirty-Third Heaven!

So that was it!

This man had the audacity to say such things.

Originally, he thought the man was just a lunatic.

Now it seemed...

If he were to achieve such an accomplishment, he would probably be even more arrogant!

Chen Xian felt the strand of Sword Intent within his body.

He exhaled two breaths of turbid air.

He hurriedly continued to look at that Fire-attribute Cultivation Technique.

Only, why did this Cultivation Technique look a bit obscure and difficult to understand?

Meanwhile...

Li Yu was in a secret room within the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion.

Four people in black were kneeling before her.

"Demonic Cultivators are rampant now, and the Imperial Court has already sent people down. In the future, Jubei City probably won't be so peaceful!"

"Eldest Young Miss, should we go back?"

"Go back?"

Li Yu said with a cold sneer: "Previously, I did have that thought. After all, I'm only interested in money and intelligence. But now, I want to see what this shield of mine will do."

The four people were startled.

Over the years, the number of people who could interest this Revered Master was truly few and far between.

That the trash Heir of the Marquis of Jubei could catch this Revered Master's eye was truly surprising to them.

"The secrets this man carries are quite extraordinary!"
