"Pavilion Master!"
Sword Immortal Tian Hen led Koo Rok-in and Lv Hao into the Sword Pavilion. Upon seeing Sword Immortal Tian Hen, all of the attendants bowed their heads in greeting.
Sword Immortal Tian Hen only nodded indifferently. He didn't give them any extra expression. Instead, he walked over to Yue King Gou Jian's side.
"Take him …" Sword Immortal Tian Hen was just about to instruct the attendants when his personal gadget suddenly rang.
He accepted the call on his personal gadget and said a few words to the person on the other end. His expression instantly darkened. "B * stard! What the hell is this White Ghost?!
There are only a few hundred people in your Department of Transportation, and you're allowing a stupid car to wreak havoc in Yan Jing City? You still have the face to report this to me? "
Sword Immortal Tian Hen paused. Then, after hearing what the person on the other end said, his expression became a little strange.
"You're saying that White Ghost stopped in front of the Sword Bearers Service Center … What?
He ignored the service center's security and parked his car in front of my Sword Pavilion! What the f * ck!
F * ck!
… "Sword Immortal Tian Hen let loose a string of expletives in a very down-to-earth manner.
"You guys, go to the first floor right now and capture that guy who dares to break into the Sword Pavilion. I want to see just what kind of b * stard has the guts to do this!"
Sword Immortal Tian Hen instructed the two sword-wielding guards beside him. These two sword-wielding guards were both Famed Sword Rank sword-wielding guards. They were the most elite sword-wielding guards aside from the five Spirit Sword Rank sword-wielding guards.
The two of them received their orders and immediately went down from the third floor to capture that audacious bastard.
"Open the glass case and hand Yue King Gou Jian's sword to this Yuzhang dude."
Even in front of Koo Rok-in, Sword Immortal Tian Hen didn't hesitate to use the insulting term "Yuzhang dude" to refer to Koo Rok-in.
Koo Rok-in's expression was ashen. However, the difference in power between him and the Yue King Gou Jian's sword prevented him from saying anything unnecessary. He could only suppress the humiliation in his heart and slowly reach out to grab the Yue King Gou Jian's sword.
"Wait!"
Just like in novels, at this critical moment, a voice exploded in Koo Rok-in's ears.
Koo Rok-in instinctively shrunk back, but he quickly reacted. Not only did he not retreat, he even grabbed the Yue Wang Goujian Sword even faster.
When Ju Lvren's hand was less than one centimeter away from the hilt of the King of Yue's Goujian Sword, a transparent and vigorous sword Qi slashed on the display case containing the King of Yue's Goujian Sword.
The entire display case instantly shattered into pieces. Suffering the impact of the force, the Yue King Goujian Sword also flew into the air, flying towards the direction where the sword qi had come from.
"Get back here!"
Sword Immortal Tian Hen's face was livid. He waved his sword, and the Sword of Yue King Goujian, which was about to fly away, changed direction in mid-air and landed in Sword Immortal Tian Hen's hand.
"Who is so daring!
How dare you behave atrociously in my Sword Pavilion! Do you believe that I won't transfer you to the Shanhai Pass today?! "
Sword Immortal Tian Hen roared. A gust of wind blew past, and a white figure landed in front of Sword Immortal Tian Hen.
"This junior has offended Sword Immortal Tian Hen!
This junior deserves to die ten thousand times over!
Please forgive me, my lord! "
This person immediately apologized to Sword Immortal Tian Hen as soon as he landed. At the very least, Sword Immortal Tian Hen's expression improved a little.
At this moment, the two Famed Sword-bearers that Sword Immortal Tian Heng had sent out hurriedly ran back. They apologized to Sword Immortal Tian Heng first, "We were incompetent. We failed to capture this criminal who dared to trespass into the Sword Pavilion. We have caused the Pavilion Master to suffer!"
"Hmph!
You're just a Famed Sword Rank sword wielder. Do you really think you can scare me? "Sword Immortal Tian Hen turned around and scolded the two Famed Sword Rank sword wielder. What else could they say?
They could only laugh bitterly in their hearts, mocking themselves for being so unlucky.
"Who are you?
How dare you trespass into Yan Jing City's Sword Pavilion! "
Sword Immortal Tian Hen turned to the man who was apologizing to him. He looked at the man's face and felt that he looked a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
"How could it be you?!"
Koo Rok-in was shocked when he saw the man's appearance. The man who had appeared before him was Guhan. Why had he suddenly appeared here?
He had even destroyed the counter of the King of Yue's Gou Jian Sword, and had even tried to snatch the King of Yue's Gou Jian Sword from his hands.
"This junior is Yuzhang City's Sword Immortal Guhan!
Greetings, Sword Immortal Tian Hen! "Guhan stood up and said to Sword Immortal Tian Hen.
"You're Guhan!"
Upon hearing the name Guhan, Sword Immortal Tian Hen finally connected this person to a name in his memory. That's right, this person was the previous Yuzhang City Sword Pavilion Master, Guhan, who had brought shame to all the Sword Pavilion Masters of the eight base cities.
Sword Immortal Tian Hen was extremely enraged by this. Ever since he had become a sword wielder, Sword Immortal Tian Hen had set becoming the Sword Pavilion Lord as his life's greatest goal, and he viewed the Sword Pavilion Lord as the most sacred occupation in the world.
Therefore, when he finally took over the position of Sword Pavilion Master from his master, he was so happy that people around him said that Sword Immortal Tian Hen hadn't scolded anyone for three or four days.
However, this rumor was soon shattered by a guy named Guhan.
This guy was actually the Yuzhang Sword Pavilion's Pavilion Master, who was also a Sword Pavilion Master.
However, Sword Immortal Tian Hen was extremely dissatisfied with the fact that this guy called Gu Han had taken over the position of Sword Pavilion Lord from his master when he was only a treasured sword rank cultivator, becoming the Sword Pavilion Lord of Yuzhang City.
This made Sword Immortal Tian Hen feel as if he had become a joke. He had spent his entire life scheming, expended his entire life's blood and sweat, dodged countless arrows, laid countless traps for others, and escaped from the brink of death countless times. After over 40 years of bloodshed, Sword Immortal Tian Hen had finally become the Pavilion Lord of the Sword Pavilion.
But what did this Guhan have to sacrifice?
Apparently, he had only been a sword wielder for less than four months. He had only spent 1/120 of his own blood and sweat, yet he was able to sit in the same position as Sword Immortal Tian Hen. Thus, Sword Immortal Tian Hen was extremely dissatisfied with Gu Han as soon as he heard the news.
What happened next was even more infuriating to Sword Immortal Tian Hen. This Guhan had actually passed the position of Sword Pavilion Master to a little girl who had just turned 18 years old. And this girl was not even a Sword Bearer. She was just an ordinary person.
Sword Immortal Tian Hen was enraged to the extreme. He felt like his 40 years of hard work was nothing compared to luck.
A little girl had become the Sword Pavilion Lord of Yuzhang City without doing anything at all. She hadn't contributed anything at all, yet she was now in charge of all the Sword Maidens in the entire city just because a certain person had done something to vent his anger … How could Sword Immortal Tian Heng not be enraged?
If it weren't for the fact that he was a Sword Immortal and that Guhan was only a Famed Sword Bearer, Sword Immortal Tian Hen would have challenged Guhan to a duel.
"I was wondering who it was!
How dare he trespass into Yan Jing City's Sword Pavilion!
So it's the previous Yuzhang City Sword Pavilion Master who has never taken the Sword Pavilion seriously. Our great Famed Sword Bearer, Master Guhan, "Sword Immortal Tian Hen said in a sarcastic tone." You're such a daring former Sword Pavilion Master!
You destroyed our display case as soon as you came to Yan Jing City. Are you here to challenge us? "
"I wouldn't dare!
I just accidentally smashed your Sword Pavilion's display case. I admit my mistake and am willing to accept any punishment from Yan Jing City's Sword Pavilion! "Guhan said in an indifferent voice.
"Good!
You're the one who said it!
Accept my punishment! "Sword Immortal Tian Hen chuckled coldly." Get the f * ck out of here and don't ever appear before me again!
Remember, f * ck … out. "
Sword Immortal Tian Hen paused on the word 'f * ck'. Clearly, he wanted Guhan to roll away from this place. If Guhan did that, he would become a complete joke.
"Sword Immortal Tian Hen, you've misunderstood!
I'm talking about the rules of Yan Jing City's Sword Pavilion, not your punishment! "
Guhan chuckled. "Sword Immortal Tian Hen, may I ask, according to the rules of Yan Jing City's Sword Pavilion, what is the punishment for destroying the Sword Pavilion's public property?"
"Yes …" Sword Immortal Tian Hen was suddenly stumped. Although he was the Sword Pavilion Master, he had never had a detailed understanding of the Sword Pavilion's punishments. How would he know what punishment he would have to bear for destroying the Sword Pavilion's public property?
"Pavilion Master!
According to the rules, if you destroy the Sword Pavilion's public property but don't cause any damage to the Sword Maiden, you'll have to pay ten times the original price, "a Famed Sword Rank swordsman whispered to Sword Immortal Tian Hen.
"…" Sword Immortal Tian Hen was speechless. How much could a small counter be worth?
Even if it was ten times the original price, it still wouldn't amount to much to a swordsman.
No wonder he dared to say that he would be punished according to the Sword Pavilion's rules. It turned out that he had been lying in ambush here. This person was extremely detestable.
"Guhan will properly apologize to Sword Immortal Tian Hen for this matter later!"
Seeing Tian Hen's expression, Guhan knew that Sword Immortal Tian Hen already understood that he wouldn't make things difficult for him over such a small matter. Thus, he tactfully dropped the topic. Instead, he expressed that he would personally apologize to Sword Immortal Tian Hen, and this would be the end of the topic.
However, from Sword Immortal Tian Hen's attitude toward him, Guhan could sense the fury in Sword Immortal Tian Hen's tone. He also knew where this fury was coming from.
However, Guhan had never regretted the decisions he had made. Thus, he had to bear the consequences of his decisions.
"Senior Sword Immortal Tian Hen, I'm not here for anything else. I just want to make a deal with you!" Guhan said calmly.
"A deal?
What kind of deal do you want to make with me?
Could it be that you want to sell the position of Yuzhang City's Sword Pavilion Lord to me? "
Sword Immortal Tian Hen looked at Guhan mockingly. Then, he feigned a look of sudden realization. "Oh, I remember now. You wanted to take this Yue King Goujian Sword, didn't you?"
Sword Immortal Tian Hen placed the Yue King Goujian Sword in front of Guhan. He even intentionally shook it a little. He smiled and asked, "Yuzhang City's previous Sword Pavilion Lord.
Is this what you want to make a deal with me? "
"That's right!"
Guhan nodded. "I wish to exchange something for the Yue King Goujian Sword. From now on, the Yue King Goujian Sword belongs to our Yuzhang City's Sword Pavilion!"
