Swordbound Chronicles The Man with the Four Coffins – Part II.
"That's right, Mr. Zhao Long. My name is Guo Jiang. You know that I'm the young Cultivator Rogue who took on the mission of capturing dead or alive The Flower-Picking Villain. And as per the mission given to all cultivator detectives, today I bring that flower-picker criminal for you to verify. Afterward, I expect the compensation that the law firm promised," Guo Jiang said.Mr. Zhao Long looked deeply at Guo Jiang, and in three blinks of an eye, he said, "Good job, young man. I would appreciate it even more if you could show me proof that this Padre of Goodness is The Flower-Picking Villain. To accuse a Padre like this is very dangerous if it is not accompanied by strong evidence."Guo Jiang, without saying much, then waved his hand, and a fierce wind blew, making the other three coffins burst open.The situation became even more chaotic after seeing the three lifeless figures. What was even more frightening was that two of them were the favorite disciples of the two major sects in t
Swordbound Chronicles A Painting on the Wall – Part I.
Padre Mu is a religious expert from the White Lotus Temple who serves as a spiritual tutor in the imperial palace. His cultivation level is at Earth Realm Level 3.A thin smile was etched on the face of Mr. Zhao Long, the Head of the Imperial Law Bureau of the Golden Pegasus. There has long been rivalry between the Law Bureau and the White Lotus Sect.Only the Law Bureau acts as the Emperor's right hand. However, over time, the White Lotus Sect, which established the worship temple, won the hearts of the imperial palace, and the White Lotus Cult was believed in by the Emperor and the palace relatives.The White Lotus Sect gradually took over many important powers in the empire, and the Head of the Law Bureau often clashed or disagreed with the side of the White Lotus Temple.Now, it was not surprising to reveal that a priest, or what was called a kind-hearted priest in that temple, was actually the flower-picking demon who was the enemy of the entire nation. It was clear that Mr. Zhao
Swordbound Chronicles A Painting on the Wall – Part II.
In a room provided for the law bureau and the family protectors of the empire, Guo Jiang was seen standing while Mr. Zhao Long sat at his desk.There were not too many decorations and ornaments that made the large room look impressive, but there were many portraits of figures who seemed to be the best representatives of the law bureau throughout history.Guo Jiang observed the ancient painting depicting a swordsman performing sword techniques on a high cliff filled with willow and peach trees.The face of the man in the painting looked majestic, as if the world was bowing to him. As he looked closer, Guo Jiang found a slight resemblance to the face of the great man in the painting. His face seemed similar to that of his mentor, the Gray Refiner."You seem to be interested in that painting, young man," said Zhao Long."Do you know who that young man is, or at least have you heard the story about him?" asked Mr. Zhao Long.Guo Jiang had promised his mentor, the Gray Robe Refiner, long a

Guo Jiang observed the painting once again. He watched the face of the Master, the gray-robed Refiner, closely. His face looked very mysterious, as if the Refiner wanted to convey a message.The Refiner's eyes in the painting seemed to speak to Guo Jiang, urging him to "pay attention to the direction of my sword!"The sword in his right hand seemed to be pointing toward the large lake at the bottom of the cliff in the painting.'Hm... there is a small forest by the lake, and there is also an island in the middle of the lake. So beautiful and lifelike,' Guo Jiang thought.For some reason, Guo Jiang became interested in observing the painting more closely. His face was now two feet away from the painting."Owh..." Guo Jiang muttered under his breath.In fact, as he got closer and observed more carefully, he noticed that at the edge of the forest, there was a painting of a group of horses frolicking happily.However, what intrigued him even more was one horse in the painting, depicting a

Mr. Zhao Long's face immediately brightened. He felt proud when Guo Jiang mentioned that this painting must have been bought at a high price.He couldn't hide his pride in affording this expensive painting."Ah, young man, there's no need to ask about how expensive I bought the painting. But if I mention how much I exchanged, you would be very surprised," said Mr. Zhao Long, trying to be modest. Meanwhile, Guo Jiang only nodded his head."I took out 25,000 mid-rank blue mana crystals during the auction of the painting in a neighboring country," Mr. Zhao Long continued, his nose flaring with pride.Realizing that Mr. Zhao Long was eager for praise regarding his good taste in art, Guo Jiang praised the chief again.The smile on Mr. Zhao Long's face widened even more after being praised by Guo Jiang.'This young man is really good at winning people over,' Mr. Zhao Long thought. His hand moved, opening the drawer under his desk.Now he unceremoniously handed over a small tube suspected of
Swordbound Chronicles Afternoon in the Osmanthus Forest – Part I.
The afternoon sun was sinking into the western horizon, the yellowish-leaved trees, once lush, were now shedding their leaves with the fall season. The tips of the leafless branches, tapering toward the sky, almost blended with the color of the western horizon. It was brownish, a blend of apricot color and the color of old wheat.The wind blew softly, touching Guo Jiang's cheek, bringing a sense of familiarity, of homesickness.There was a young man who stood firmly, with a steady stance, majestically visible among the piles of dried leaves, some yellow and some brown.Sometimes the wind blew his hair, some of which fell over his cheeks, making him look even more mysterious.Suddenly, a strange and foreign-sounding language broke the silence as the young man shouted, "Vindangreb!"Unexpectedly, a powerful, tempest-like attack wind emerged from the void. It quickly formed hundreds of invisible swords, moving swiftly through the air, now slicing and tearing through a pile of dry leaves
Swordbound Chronicles Afternoon in the Osmanthus Forest – Part II.
Still in silence, the four figures waited until about the time of the burning charcoal before taking action. The white smoke blown into the room was a weakening poison similar to a tranquilizer that could make anyone feel weak, asleep, and unable to control their Qi energy.After they had waited long enough, the four figures carefully opened the door to the room, now smiling at each other in satisfaction as they saw the targeted young man fast asleep, not realizing in the slightest that he was in danger."Take him! We'll kill him in the forest where Padre Virtue breathed his last. It won't take too long for one of the four shadows to carry the unconscious young man.Armed with the cultivation of the four people, all of whom were at Earth Practitioner Level 3 to 5, they jumped straight up and disappeared after moving several times across the roofs of other houses.The night passed quietly, and even the nighttime animals did not make any noise; it seemed that the Middle was also hiding

The White Lotus Temple had closed its gates since dusk. This had been the custom for a long time when the shrine was opened to the public and served the devotees who came to worship in the Golden Pegasus Empire.Just as a child laborer, the future Padre of the temple, was about to close the temple gate, suddenly there was the clatter of horses' hooves in the distance. Even though it was fall, puffs of dust were kicked up.The boy named Afiu, dressed in a rough tunic of an unattractive gray color that the Padres wore to appear humble, stared in surprise as he heard the hoofbeats and shouts in the distance."What happened?" Afiu asked, confused.His friend Aheng, who was in the middle of sweeping the yard full of fallen leaves, also ran over to Afiu."Hold on a minute, little Padre! Don't close the gate of the White Lotus Temple just yet," a voice shouted from a distance, indicating that the person had high Qi power.Spontaneously, Afiu, who was about to lock the gate of the White Lotus

But his actions in this Martial Arts World are nothing more than those of a thug.It's lucky that I managed to drive him away, but you, young man, should be careful in the future," said Alchemist Tao, who immediately invited Guo Jiang to follow him.Guo Jiang secretly felt a warm air flowing in his heart. It turned out that the purpose of Alchemist Tao's arrival in inviting him to drink tea was to save him by expelling the Fear Nun.He counted as a loyal new customer after all, having spent 500,000 low-ranking Blue Mana on that bronze rank artifact.Inside the Alchemist's private study, Guo Jiang enjoyed a serving of Green Dragon Leaf Tea, specially imported from the South."Young master, please finish the tea from our Blue-Eyed Dragon Auction Institute.This is an expensive tea, which I bought directly from a merchant of the southern region of the continent. Please don't waste it; enjoy it and feel the benefits that give a sense of tranquility," said Alchemist Tao.The two then engag

But while he was making the payment transaction, Guo Jiang felt that there was one pair of eyes locked on him. He slowly turned back and saw that cold gaze.'Fear Nun!' Guo Jiang thought inwardly.'What does this nun want?Is she not satisfied with the outcome of the auction earlier, after I managed to thwart her desire to obtain the Sword of the Shadow of Silence?'Guo Jiang began to analyze and calculate, just in case there was a battle after he left this auction institution.'I still have many Death Badges, that is the Sword Curse Talisman.If this old woman dares to attack me on the streets later, I will not hesitate to take her life.'Badge of Death - This Sword Curse Talisman was still unable to eliminate an Atmosphere Rank Cultivator.Let alone this old nun at level 5 Earth Rank,' Guo Jiang's mind was calm. His hand quietly reached for the Death Badge, now tightly within his grasp.Guo Jiang had just finished paying at the cashier of the Auction Institute and was now cautiously

"Nun Fear!" There was an uproar of people whispering after discovering who was making the high bids."She's very brave...Even though she knows that our Great Eagle Empire is in the middle of a war against their Xinteng Empire, she dares to visit a country that is the opposite of her home."Nun Fear is the leader of the Temple of Liberation and Mercy, a religious order also known as the Liberation Sect.With her high cultivation at level 5 Earth Rank, Nun Fear traveled the world to be respected and feared in the Xinteng Empire; even her name was well known in the border areas of Swan Feather City.But Guo Jiang only took a glance, then raised his offer even higher."320,000 low-ranked Blue Mana for the Shadow of Silence Sword!""350,000 low-ranked Blue Mana!" pressed Nun Fear. This was an extremely high amount, even too high for a Bronze rank sword artifact."I think that young man will definitely stop his bidding for the Sword of Silence.""The value of 350,000 low-ranking Blue Mana
Five Hundred Thousand Blue Manna Crystals.
"The Shadow of Silence Sword is an ancient Bronze-ranked artifact that was magically forged by the Elven race Refiner five hundred years ago.The auction price for this ancient artifact opened at a low-ranking 50 Blue Mana.Subsequent bids start with multiples of 5,000 low-ranking Blue Mana."Teng - teng - teng.The chimes signaled that the auction battle for the Shadow of Silence Sword had begun.Voice after voice piled on top of each other, competing to become the winner of the auction and to be recognized as the owner of the bronze-ranked sword."55,000 Blue Mana!""60,000 Blue Mana!""75,000 Blue Mana!"Guo Jiang stayed silent for a while and didn't bid yet, as all the participants started bidding. When young master Wu bid 125,000 Blue Mana, his heart began to pound.Obviously, the remaining funds he had were limited to the highest bid of 150,000 Blue Mana only. This was a critical moment for young master Wu."150,000 Blue Mana! And that Silence Shadow Sword will be mine!" Guo Jia
Sword of Silent Shadow – Part II.
Leopard Master and young master Wu were then provided with a sum of money that was estimated to be enough for the Silent Shadow Sword.However, young master Wu had already spent half of the money they had brought to buy the Memory Cloak Armor, all because of the hot-blooded young man's unwillingness to lose to another young man who bid a high price."Master... this disciple of yours knows the limits of what can be tolerated, and I will stop messing around at this auction.I deliberately bid high so that young people will continue to buy inferior goods at very high prices," Wu Shunyuan replied confidently.Until finally, when his lips confidently shouted out his offer,"125,000 Blue Manna Crystals!"The entire room in the blue-eyed dragon auction hall instantly fell silent. This was a huge sum for just one old bone, which had no features other than being able to glow and had yet to be confirmed to be of dragon origin.Young master Wu laughed inwardly. He hoped that the young fool would

"Ah... in my opinion, for a bronze rank vest with a price of 50,000 low rank Blue Mana Crystals, that's too high a price..." he yawned as if looking lazy. He continued..."Perhaps this time I will let young master Wu win and take home the Memory Cloak Armor." Guo Jiang bowed in salute as if giving the opportunity to come out as the winner in the armor auction.The situation became an uproar. Everyone was shocked at the audacity of the young man who had obviously deliberately set up a trick to trap young master Wu into making the price of the Calmness Cloak Armor many times higher than the actual price.Wu Shunyuan looked sour when he finally had to spend 150,000 blue mana crystals on bronze-ranked armor that was unnecessary. His eyes stared blazing at Guo Jiang, his heart burning with envy to kill the young man.The Wu Clan's young master secretly began to harbor a grudge against Guo Jiang. After the game Guo Jiang played by tricking him into buying the Calmness Cloak Armor far above

"Master Leopard!" a voice hissed out the man's nickname.Instantly, the noise became silent. Everyone stopped bidding on the Memory Cloak Armor, leaving the Wu Clan's young master as the winner of the auction.His name was Wu Shunyuan; he was the youngest child of the Patriarch of the Wu Clan, one of the largest and most respected Clans in Goose Feather City of the Xinteng Empire. While the man wearing the leopard robe was named Wen Xiaosi, who was the teacher and nanny of young master Wu.Wen Xiaosi's name had thrilled cultivators throughout the Xinteng Empire. Such was the fame of the leopard master's name and nickname that it was even heard in the small towns at the foot of the Northern border mountains.Of course, when seeing that the arrogant young man was a disciple of the Leopard Master, instantly all the participants stopped their bidding and abandoned the desire to possess the Calmness Cloak Armor."If no one else bids, then the Memory Cloak Armor, which is a Bronze rank arti

Guo Jiang arrived in a room that was quite large; it could accommodate approximately 100 to 200 people inside.There were no special balconies for VIP guests, as found in big city auction rooms and renowned auction service institutions.Guo Jiang noticed that there were no less than 50 people sitting inside the hall of the Blue-Eyed Dragon Auction Institute, while at the front, on the stage, a young woman was seen demonstrating an object that provoked a commotion among the bidders."An armor forged from rare metals by master refiners in the past..."Just as the auction host, a young woman, was explaining the next item to be shown, the room instantly became rowdy."This is the thing I've been waiting for!""I hope all the gentlemen will give us, the Black Crow Sect, a head start in buying the auction items!"Guo Jiang became curious about what objects would be exhibited next."Is that the Silence of Shadow Steel that will be auctioned off next?" He too became nervous.This was the firs

There were about three or four giant ships that could be seen floating in the middle of the city, precisely at the Spirit Ship Air Harbor, near the city square.'The first thing I have to do is buy my flight ticket to the Old City in the North, Duanxin Country.'He then asked for the Airship's departure schedule to the Old City in the North."You have to be patient and wait another week. A large-capacity airship will come from the City of Kings—our Great King Empire—and that flying mode of transportation will proceed directly to the Old City in the land of Duanxin for a whole week without stopping.”“If you are interested in ordering in advance, we provide a special price of 15 mid-rank blue mana crystals. I have calculated that from the original ticket price of 20 mid-rank blue mana crystals, this is 15 crystals because you are an officer of the Golden Pegasus Empire, which is an alliance of our Great King country," said the ticket girl with a flirtatious smile.She was wearing very
