Eternal Saber

Chapter 433 - 39: Nameless Nobodies

In the corner of the crowd.

Mei Zhenyu secretly clicked his tongue, sighing: "I didn’t expect this Xia Yuanxian to be so formidable, Langya Pavilion is truly in his hands now. Brother Chen, you say..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Chen Tang push through the crowd, already walking forward.

"Brother Chen, where are you going?"

Mei Zhenyu was startled and quickly asked.

"Too damn arrogant, I’m going to meet him."

Chen Tang didn’t even turn his head, only mumbling a sentence, then dove into the crowd.

Ah Li followed closely behind.

Mei Zhenyu hesitated in expression.

The Sword Casting Manor’s matter is still unresolved, and the Langya Pavilion Master had instructed them to remain low-key and not reveal themselves.

Going forward now would easily expose their target.

He had just clearly seen that there were several people from Sword Casting Manor in the crowd!

Seeing Chen Tang about to disappear into the crowd, Mei Zhenyu gritted his teeth and still grabbed Zhu Lingxue’s wrist, quickly following up.

-----------------

Madam Su’s face was grim, without a word.

She appeared to have aged several years.

This battle was a crushing defeat for Langya Pavilion.

Shen Zhiyuan was severely injured, and his cultivation might be completely ruined.

Even Zhiwei probably...

Before this, she had already declared, Zhiwei’s future husband must either be first in academics or first in martial arts.

Now, Xia Yuanxian is undeniably the first in martial arts, unmatched by anyone!

With everyone watching, is she supposed to go back on her word?

If so, Langya Pavilion’s reputation would be utterly ruined!

But if she agreed to this marriage, Zhiwei would truly be a lamb to the slaughter; after this event, who knows how much she would suffer in the Xia family. How could she be at ease?

Thinking of this, Madam Su felt her qi and blood surge, somewhat dizzy.

"Elder Su, rest assured, leave this matter to me."

At this moment, Ye Xuan’s voice echoed in her mind.

Ye Xuan slowly stood up, solemnly said: "I have brought the Old Pavilion Master’s letter, intending to take Zhiwei to the Sword Pavilion to cultivate, hoping the Prime Minister will understand."

This statement broke the silence, causing quite a stir.

"Didn’t expect to hear from the Old Pavilion Master for this matter."

"She’s the Old Pavilion Master’s granddaughter, of course he’s worried."

"Although this doesn’t really count as Langya Pavilion going back on their word, the Sword Pavilion inserting themselves isn’t quite honorable, the Old Pavilion Master is really going all out."

Many people whispered.

"Hahahaha!"

Xia Daozi laughed loudly, "So the Old Pavilion Master is so cunning, he actually prepared such a hand, impressive."

Pausing, Xia Daozi changed his tone, "But the Old Pavilion Master has overthought."

The crowd heard Xia Daozi’s implication, puzzled by its meaning.

Xia Yuanxian lightly smiled, saying loudly: "Today’s duel is just to let you Jianghu friends see what the true sky looks like! From now on, within Great Xia’s territory, there’s no need to mention some random rankings like the Wind and Cloud Ranking, they’re just jokes!"

"As for Miss Zhiwei from the Shen family, I never even thought about marrying her. In my eyes, she’s no more than an old shoe, how could she match me?"

Being publicly insulted like this, Ye Taoyuan was furious.

Madam Su was so angry she heavily struck her Dragon Head Staff, piercing the floor beneath!

"What sort of thing are you, speaking like a fart, stinkingly unbearable! Did your family all die, nobody taught you how to speak properly?"

In the crowd, a mocking voice suddenly emerged.

It not only scolded Xia Yuanxian, but also involved Xia Daozi.

Chen Tang usually didn’t curse, after all, using fists to solve problems is more direct and effective.

But if it’s about tongue-lashing, his thirty years of experience on various forums in his past life, who could withstand it!

In terms of a verbal battle alone, he could curse Xia Yuanxian into a puddle.

In an instant, everyone’s gaze fell on Chen Tang, who just emerged from the crowd.

Chen Tang dressed simply, tall and well-built, carrying a large bow slung over his shoulder, with a quiver on his back, looked like a hunter from somewhere.

Who is this person?

The crowd looked bewildered.

Xia Yuanxian’s expression turned cold.

This voice sounded familiar.

Earlier, when someone in the crowd reminded Su Muzhe about ’doping’, it was this person!

Hearing this voice, Zhiwei’s figure trembled, her face showing disbelief, she quickly turned around.

"Brother Atang!"

Zhiwei cheered, her face full of joy.

After handing Shen Zhiyuan to her mother, Ye Taoyuan, she rushed towards Chen Tang, like a swallow returning to the forest, diving into Chen Tang’s embrace.

"Who is this person?"

The Langya Pavilion people were utterly confused.

Madam Su frowned deeply.

How did a young man suddenly appear, with whom Zhiwei was so close?

Could it be Zhiwei had long privately pledged her life to someone?

How come she never mentioned it?

Beside her, Shen Yuanlin’s expression changed seeing Chen Tang suddenly appear, frightened and sweating profusely.

Today’s defeat for Langya Pavilion was already bad enough.

Now this person came to add chaos.

If the people from Sword Casting Manor recognized him and found out the murderer of the Fourth Manor Master was hiding here, Langya Pavilion would have no way to explain!

Shen Yuanlin could see clearly that the people from Sword Casting Manor seemed to have realized something, whispering among themselves.

"Yuanlin, who is this person..."

Just as Madam Su was about to ask, Shen Yuanlin wiped his sweat, quickly replying: "His name is Chen Tang, introduced from the Celestial Cauldron Continent by Shen Che, but unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived in Nanxia, he caused a great disaster, he killed the people from Sword Casting Manor."

"I originally planned for him to stay in Langya Pavilion temporarily, not to show his face, and after today’s events, handle his matter, who would have thought he suddenly appeared."

Ye Xuan’s heart was stirred.

Celestial Cauldron Continent?

Chen Tang came from the Celestial Cauldron Continent?

East Sea, Celestial Cauldron Continent, Nanxia, at this time, Yushi seems to be here too...

Ye Xuan vaguely thought of something.

"Since you’ve caused such a big trouble, why keep him at Langya Pavilion!"

Madam Su’s face darkened, just about to give an order, when Ye Taoyuan helped Shen Zhiyuan back and quickly said, "Wait a moment, this Chen Tang is Zhiwei’s savior, Zhiwei mentioned him to me."

Zhiwei had talked about Brother Atang.

It was only just now she realized, that Brother Atang mentioned by Zhiwei is the same Chen Tang that Ye Xuan highly praised!

Hearing this, Madam Su’s expression softened slightly, nodding, "Since he has shown kindness to Zhiwei, our Shen Family shouldn’t treat him poorly. But it’s inappropriate at this moment, let him step down for now."

"Elder Su, there’s no need to rush."

Ye Xuan smiled slightly, "Let’s see what he’s capable of."

"Oh?"

Madam Su looked puzzled.

Ye Xuan rarely shows emotion, his joy and anger are not expressed, completely different from his father.

When it comes to this young man, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but smile, seemingly quite impressed with him.

The severe pain in Shen Zhiyuan’s Dantian had eased considerably, and upon seeing Chen Tang appear, he gasped lightly, "Grandmother, Brother Chen is not a reckless person, I’ve been improving my Power lately thanks to exchanging insights with him."

"You know him too?"

Madam Su became even more astonished, examining Chen Tang below.

-----------------

Liu Yingxiu’s eyes flickered, whispering, "It’s him?"

Lin Mubai frowned slightly upon seeing Chen Tang.

Han Yue grinned, "Interesting, didn’t expect to meet again so soon."

"Who, who is here?"

Xiao Wuhen’s vision had not recovered, he could only see blurry figures, the voice sounded familiar.

"It’s Chen Tang."

Lin Mubai reminded.

"It’s him!"

Xiao Wuhen gnashed his teeth, his expression venomous.

If it weren’t for the half-page letter left by Chen Tang, he wouldn’t have ended up like this!

Lin Mubai said flatly, "Brother Xiao, don’t be angry, if this man wants to make a scene, your great revenge could be fulfilled."

"Indeed, Young Master Xia will definitely cut him down!"

Xiao Wuhen said viciously.

-----------------

"Brother Atang, how come you’re here? I heard before that you had already..."

Zhiwei, infinitely joyful, curiously asked.

"It’s a long story."

Chen Tang smiled slightly, "Let me vent your anger first, then I’ll tell you later."

"Okay!"

Zhiwei nodded vigorously, she had an almost blind trust in Chen Tang.

Anything Chen Tang said, he would definitely accomplish.

Leaving Zhiwei behind, Chen Tang stepped onto the Martial Arts Arena, grinning at Xia Yuanxian, "I can’t say whether Jianghu is as small as a well, but if you want to be the top of the Wind and Cloud Ranking, you’ll have to get past me first."

Many people looked bewildered.

This man appeared so young, yet his words were bolder than Xia Yuanxian’s!

The problem is, Xia Yuanxian had just demonstrated terrifying strength, who was this person? Where had he come from?

Xia Yuanxian asked calmly, "Who are you, and what’s your rank on the Wind and Cloud Ranking?"

"My name is Chen Tang, not ranked on the Wind and Cloud Ranking."

Chen Tang replied truthfully.

"Do you have any reputation in Jianghu?" Xia Yuanxian asked again.

Chen Tang said, "No name, no reputation."

Xia Yuanxian sneered, shaking his head, "Then you’re unworthy of fighting me, my Xia Yuanxian’s blade does not cut the unknown."

With that, Xia Yuanxian turned to leave, not even wanting to spare Chen Tang another glance.

"I won’t make it difficult for you either."

With his back to Chen Tang, Xia Yuanxian said casually, "I’ll just find two guards from the Prime Minister’s Mansion about your age, if you can get past them, you’ll qualify to fight me."

"That’s fine."

Chen Tang smiled, "No need to go back, just stand to the side, it’ll save you the trip later."

"Arrogant!"

Xia Yuanxian snorted coldly, feeling somewhat annoyed.

Where had this person emerged from, even more arrogant than him!

Xia Yuanxian ignored Chen Tang, continued walking towards his father’s direction, asking aloud, "Who wishes to fight?"

"I volunteer!"

"I volunteer!"

Instantly, several people stood up among the Imperial Guard.

This was a rare opportunity to distinguish themselves, everyone with some ability wanted to seize the chance to perform well.

"Qiu Meng, you go."

Xia Yuanxian’s gaze fell on a guard wearing Battle Armor, a commanding figure, and slowly said, "I’ll give you a limit of twenty moves, if you can’t win within twenty moves, bring your head to me!"

"Understood!"

Qiu Meng bowed with clenched fists, standing tall and straight, staring at Chen Tang with murderous intent, striding boldly onto the Martial Arts Arena.

Xia Yuanxian hadn’t walked a few steps when a strange sound came from behind.

Like the twang of a bowstring.

Immediately followed by the sound of a sharp weapon piercing flesh and blood.

Xia Yuanxian only felt a breeze pass by, lifting a strand of hair from his forehead.

A figure brushed past, fell not far in front of him!

Xia Yuanxian glanced over.

He saw Qiu Meng with his eyes wide open, full of confusion, his chest Battle Armor shattered, an iron arrow pierced through his body, lying motionless on the ground, already dead!

Only at this moment did cries of shock and amazement erupt around.
