Chapter 166 - Jianghai City’s Moment of Glory
Chapter 166: Jianghai City’s Moment of Glory
“Murakami Beichuan is also very strong. This year, he is just under 50 years old.”
“F*ck! Why are others in their forties so awesome? Look at me, it’s as if I’m playing around.”
Du Changfeng and the others could not help but feel ashamed of their inferiority and could not help but admire him.
Those people were already several decades older, but up until now, they had yet to advance to the divine sect. If they looked at them again, they were simply not enough.
“After all, they are people who can be ranked on the World Dragon list. Their standards are indeed extraordinary.”
The internet was also in an uproar over that scene.
All sorts of shocking comments followed one after another.
However, at that moment, two more figures flew over slowly and calmly.
The arrival of those two people ignited and exploded the entire scene.
“It’s Shi Guanghao, ranked 46th on the World Dragon fist! Iron Fist Shi Guanghao!”
“And the Clear Wind Swordsman, Lang Xinyue, ranked 39th on the World Dragon list!”
All the audience and netizens started to get excited.
The nine provinces had a total of 17 places on the Dragon and Phoenix list. Shi Guanghao and Lang Xinyue were both ranked in the top 50 on the Dragon list.
They were also martial arts experts above Xiantian eighth grade.
Although they were much older than Liu Chengxun and Murakami, they were younger than those two when they advanced to Xiantian eighth grade.
Shi Guanghao advanced to Xiantian eighth grade at the age of 42.
Lang Xinyue advanced to Xiantian eighth grade at the age of 40.
At that level, every year that they advanced to Xiantian eighth grade, there was a huge difference in their later cultivation.
The earlier they advanced to Xiantian eighth grade, the more hope they had to advance to the legendary Xiantian ninth grade.
The appearance of the two must have been arranged by the nine provinces to monitor Liu Chengxun and Murakami Beichuan to prevent them from acting presumptuously in the territory of the nine provinces.
It was not a problem for them to challenge the Saber-sword Immortal, but if they dared to hurt innocent people, the two of them would definitely make a move.
However, when they saw the two of them, Liu Chengxun and Murakami Beichuan did not pay too much attention to them.
They were both at Xiantian eighth grade. Although they had stepped into Xiantian eighth grade earlier, there was no need for them to be overly respectful in front of them.
Just treat them as usual.
There was still a long way to go, and it was hard to say if the two of them would surpass Shi Guanghao and Lang Xinyue.
However, at that moment, the clouds in the sky suddenly changed color.
The clouds in the sky seemed to have turned into a crumpled piece of paper as they twisted crazily.
That extremely terrifying scene shocked countless people.
Even Shi Guanghao and the other four Xiantian eighth-grade martial artists had solemn expressions on their faces.
An incredible martial arts expert had arrived.
Moreover, the other party’s strength was completely above the few Xiantian eight-grade martial artists.
Not long after, the clouds stopped rolling and two figures appeared from the clouds.
One of them wore a plain robe, while the other was a young woman with a cold and elegant expression.
After seeing those two people, Du Changfeng, Fa Zheng, and the other martial grandmasters could not help but yell.
“It’s actually him!”
Everyone in the surroundings and the netizens watching the live broadcast were all dumbfounded.
“Who are they? Who are these two people?”
“I don’t know. I’ve never seen them before. However, for a great grandmaster to be shocked by them, they shouldn’t be ordinary people, right?”
“Probably. After all, they weren’t this excited when Great Grandmasters Shi and Lang came over. Now that they’re so excited, they seem to be incoherent. Could this person be even stronger than Great Grandmasters Shi and Lang?”
“That shouldn’t be possible! Great Grandmasters Shi and Lang are both martial artists at the divine sect rank.”
There was no doubt that they were powerful. They were ranked 46th and 39th in the world. How could such a martial arts expert be stronger than them? Then how popular is Jianghai city?”
“It can’t be said that Jianghai city is popular rather, the Saber-sword Immortal is the one that’s popular.”
“These people are definitely curious about Saber-sword Immortal’s identity and want to find him. Do you really think that Jianghai city has anything to attract them?”
“That’s right. If it weren’t for the Saber-sword Immortal, existences at their level wouldn’t even take a look at Jianghai city, let alone come to this city.”
However, just as everyone was in shock, Great Grandmaster Lang, ranked 39th on the Dragon list, took the lead to bow with cupped hands.
Then, it was followed by Great Grandmaster Shi.
Then, even Sword Saint Liu Chengxun of the Han state and Murakami of the Jia He Liu Ninjutsu sect of Ying state put away their previous arrogance and scorn then became respectful, like little sheep.
The four divine sects all cupped their hands.
“Greetings, Sword Saint Lu.”
That scene caused the entire riverbank and the entire live broadcast room to sink into a deathly silence.
Everyone’s minds seemed to be unable to process what was happening.
Sword Saint Lu!
There was only one person in the nine provinces who would be called a sword saint, and that person’s surname was Lu.
Lu Qingshan!
Sword Saint Lu Qingshan!
Ranked tenth on the World Dragon list!
He was completely different from the others. They were on a completely different level.
“Oh my God, it’s Sword Saint Lu! The legendary nine provinces’ Sword Saint Lu Qingshan! Sob, sob, sob, sob… The greatest dream in my life has been fulfilled. I have no regrets even if I die this second!”
“I was wondering how someone could make the four divine sects behave themselves. If it turns out to be Sword Saint Lu, then that’s normal.”
…
The reason why everyone was shocked by Lu Qingshan was that he was a myth!
Although the myth was not perfect and there was another person above him in terms of sword art, that person was a legend and had already surpassed the limits of the current human world.
Sword Saint Lu’s strength in sword art was already ranked in the top three in the world. That was enough.
Entering the divine sect at the age of 30 at the Xiantian seventh grade.
Entering the eighth grade at the age of 34.
Entering the ninth grade at the age of 40 at the peak of the divine sect.
Although he was already a few hundred years old, that did not change the fact that he was at the peak of the divine sect.
That was because the peak of the divine sect was a dream that most people could not reach in their entire lives.
Therefore, even though Lang Xinyue and Liu Chengxun were still young, their future could not be guaranteed to go further than Sword Saint Lu’s.
After the divine sect, every realm was like ascending to the heavens.
The gap between each realm was enough to make people despair.
Especially after the peak of the divine sect, it was almost impossible to accomplish.
Otherwise, Lu Qingshan would have advanced to the peak of the divine sect in the past 200 to 300 years.
Lu Qingshan looked down with a faint smile and said lightly,
“I came here today just to watch the battle. You don’t have to worry.”
These words made Bi Chuan and Liu Chengxun heave a sigh of relief.
As long as the sword saint did not interfere, the battle could continue.
Especially Liu Chengxun. Although he was also called the sword saint, compared to Lu Qingshan, the sword saint, he felt like the state of Han was incomparable to the state of the nine provinces.
Although they both had the word ‘state’ in them, the state of the nine provinces could make the head of the state of Han sit under its buttocks where it could not struggle free.
If Lu Qingshan wanted to kill him, it was as easy as squashing an ant.
The netizens were still in an uproar because even Lu Qingshan was here. Even if they did not watch the match, it would be worth it.
However, it was still better to watch it.
After all, it was impossible for Lu Qingshan to make a move.
If Lu Qingshan could single-handedly take on the four divine sects, there was no way he could play.
Now, they were waiting for the main character to arrive.
The Saber-sword Immortal!
In the sky, Xun ‘er asked in puzzlement,
“Master, why did you come here? It’s just a fight between a few small fries, and you want to break through the barrier to watch it personally.”
Lu Qingshan said with a smile,
“Xun ‘er, you really should cultivate your body and mind. The path of martial arts is not purely about comparing the level of cultivation.
“Some of the most powerful sword intents might appear on people you look down on, so you have to be careful.”
After saying that, he looked down.
Actually, he came here to confirm one thing.
That was, whether the Saber-sword Immortal was the one he saw that night.
He really wanted to find that guy.
He was too eager!
That fellow was very young, and his bone age definitely did not exceed 25.
If he could nurture a Xiantian eighth-grade divine sect that did not even exceed 25, his future would probably become the next person in the nine provinces that would shock the entire world!
In the past 200 years, the nine provinces had experienced too many star beast attacks. Many martial arts cultures had withered and lost their heritage. The overall strength of the nine provinces had declined so much that those clowns became more and more impudent.
If they could find that child and nurture him, it would definitely be a blessing for the nine provinces.
It was enough to make the people of the entire world tremble under the intimidation of the nine provinces.
Martial arts did not have national boundaries, but warriors had nationality.
If they could find that child, Lu Qingshan would even choose to teach him everything he knew and pass it on to him.
…
However, when the entire Jianghai city, even the entire nine provinces, including many places in the world, billions or even tens of billions of people were waiting for Ye Xiao to appear while Ye Xiao did not even know that the other party had arrived in Jianghai city.
At that moment, he had just arrived in Jianghai city and was receiving a call from Gu Hai.
“Hello? What? Is she giving birth soon? I know, I’m coming.”
Today was Lu Wanwan’s due date, and Ye Xiao had said that he will be the godfather for Gu Hai’s child.
