Chapter 1090: Broken

~16 min read 3,037 words

Inside the Imperial Palace.

Zhuge Wudi stood high atop the summit, holding the Slaughter Dragon Crossbow, and suddenly fired.

Clang!!!

The terrifying power of the bowstring erupted, and an arrow shot out like lightning, plunging into the black mist.

Pfft!

The black mist dissipated, revealing the figure of Shui Mu Yin Hou.

With an expression of disbelief on her face, she stared at the arrow in her chest.

The next moment, she collapsed to the ground, her breath completely gone.

"Shui Mu Yin Hou has been eliminated... beginning IP Address tracking immediately!"

Swish!

Accompanied by the scrolling of red silk, lines of black characters appeared:

"Damn it, I logged off to check... the game company actually won't admit it!"

It made them almost forget their own existence, with nothing but these continuous, endless sword techniques in their eyes and hearts.

"Pursue!"

Situ Zhaixin shook his head helplessly: "Shui Mu Yin Hou has fallen... and according to Zuo Sifei, that purple-robed old eunuch's Wu is unimaginably high... it's impossible to fight! More importantly, even if we take out that old eunuch, what impact does it have on the game company? They can just spend money to hire another one!"

"I'm quitting the game! Everyone follow me, let's leave the game company to starve!"

"Deliver a letter, deliver what letter?" Situ Zhaixin asked curiously.

But just at this moment, a strip of black gauze drifted through the air and wrapped around his waist.

"Ah!"

This sword carried peerless Sword Qi, instantly piercing the purple-robed eunuch's left palm, but it was caught by the two fingers of his right hand and snapped with a violent twist.

That drop of rainwater, saturated with Internal Energy, was caught by the Taiji Circle, spinning rapidly, and then rebounded back.

The watching players and high-level NPCs were all stunned by this scene.

Just then, at the Six Gates, gongs and drums suddenly sounded.

'Dragon Tiger List Rank One — Wuxing Shanren!'

The purple-robed eunuch let out a sharp shriek, his hands instantly turning silver, unleashing a sky full of palm shadows.

At the same time, there were the forty-nine sword strikes thrust out by Aaron!

Countless players were dazzled and mesmerized, watching what could almost be called the peak battle in the game, unable to speak.

"Is this something a human can do?" Situ Zhaixin cursed directly, excitedly grabbing Dugu Jian by the neck: "Is your big brother's brain a Quantum Computer?"

Clang!

Aaron flicked the sword body, the sword singing like a dragon, faintly tracing a Taiji Circle in the curtain of rain.

Dugu Jian muttered a complaint.

'Dragon Tiger List Rank Thirty-Three — Sword of Talisman Water Lang Fantian! Achievements: Slaying Duan Hong, Dan Qingtian, causing a scene at the Xia Wang Mansion at night... His 'Talisman Water Sword Technique' is incredibly exquisite, skilled at overcoming motion with stillness, avoiding the solid to strike the void, and is infinitely marvelous!'

In the sky, the clouds turned into dense fish-scale clouds, a light, drizzling rain fell, merging into the gaps between the bricks and tiles, dripping under the eaves.

Red and white light flashed violently, the void shattered, revealing a black hole that swallowed the purple-robed eunuch who couldn't dodge in time!

"I really didn't expect the game company to be so shameless... why protect Qianbukong at all costs? Could it be that, just like the rumors say, Qianbukong is the illegitimate son of some high-level executive?"

On the white marble plaza stood a purple-robed old eunuch.

Dugu Jian felt much more dejected: "Knowing so many things now, I don't feel like having any fun anymore... this broken game, I'm not playing it!"

Chairman Qian took a deep breath and signaled for Qianbukong to go do his work.

The purple-robed old eunuch's expression was extremely grave, his figure like a ghost, as he suddenly flicked his finger.

Such rainy days don't always have lightning, either.

"Ahhh... you dare kill my wife, I'll fight you to the death!"

"It won't work, Chairman... after the Yuan Yuexin incident, those high-level players don't care about us at all..."

This sword strike had actually achieved Broken Vacuum!

"To hell with it, I'm going to denounce Qianbukong!"

Dugu Jian also wanted to pound the ground and shout, but just then, the battle situation changed again.

Anyway, one could just log back into the game; even if there were extremely powerful White Guests in the game, one could just switch to another game.

Chairman Qian steadied himself.

"Trash!"

Aaron nodded.

Before Wu Men.

Bang!

A jar of fine, aged Flower Carving Wine fell to the ground, instantly shattering into pieces, the fragrance of wine overflowing.

"This place is not to be lingered in, go!"

However, he did not know that sometimes what seems like nonsense is often the truth.

"Fire!"

Chairman Qian clutched his heart, swaying unsteadily, while Qianbukong grabbed the Technical Director, asking with a ferocious expression.

It was Situ Zhaixin!

"The Nine Dragons Shadow Wall is not in the Imperial Palace, Zuo Sifei has encountered a powerful enemy, leave quickly!"

Forbidden City!

That purple-robed old eunuch is one thing, his Internal Energy is simply terrifyingly powerful.

"The list is out!"

Following this, Tietui nodded to the two Divine Catchers, and their figures instantly vanished into the darkness.

Dugu Jian's eyes lit up, and he opened the window.

The wind has risen.

"My life is at an end!"

Then, his whole body flew up, flying outside the palace walls...

Aaron asked a question.

"Stop!"

"Sigh... this time, we have suffered a crushing defeat."

"Game data overflow, the world is collapsing! This game of ours... is finished!!!"

Three days later.

Whoosh!

The rain grew heavier, soaking Aaron's lapels.

"Three days from now, I will go to the Forbidden City alone with my sword, and from this day on, I shall slaughter one person every day!"

Three days later.

"That is the logic, but we entered the jianghu to seek the thrill of vengeance..."

Aaron smiled slightly.

Even if he died in battle, it would be nothing.

"It's here, it's here!"

A group of players saw a person walking slowly at the end of the Heavenly Street, wearing a straw raincoat and bamboo hat, holding a Black Iron sword, and their eyes couldn't help but light up: "The game name wasn't chosen wrong, Lang Fantian... he really is going to turn the world upside down!"

"Dragon Tiger List Third Place—Northland Spear King Zhang He!"

Within three feet of the purple-robed old eunuch, an invisible wall of air appeared, and not a single drop of water touched him!

"Is this the might of Heaven?"

Aaron's sword tip leaped up, pointing at the purple-robed old eunuch.

Seeing Zhuge Wudi coming over with the Slaughter Dragon Crossbow, Dachen was so scared his soul flew out of his body.

"Go and close the doors and windows!"

"Big brother, you're quitting too? Let's switch to another one together, Planet Hegemony, Magic Continent, Pet Battle... or you choose, big brother?"

"Borrowing the power of Heaven and Earth to use it..." The purple-robed eunuch stood before a flight of steps and said coldly: "I underestimated the people of the world. Although your Internal Energy is average, your Swordsmanship has reached a level that shocks Heaven and makes spirits weep... and your grasp of the timing of battle is exquisite to the extreme. Just now, if I had been even slightly careless, I would have lost!"

"Of course a newbie like you says quit and you quit, but what about the martial arts manuals and peerless divine weapons we spent so much money to get? Are you going to compensate us?"

Dachen ran to the palace gate and saw the dense Army Formation ahead, feeling somewhat desperate.

Unfortunately, in the martial arts jianghu, they were always just background characters.

"Die under my sword!"

"Shui Mu Yin Hou is completely finished; someone tracked her IP, and she'll likely spend the rest of her life in prison... Zuo Sifei is slightly better off, but he also encountered an extremely powerful White Guest, issued a statement, withdrew from the jianghu, and will never log into this game again, only then barely escaping a disaster!"

"That's true."

"It's over..." Hiding in the shadows, Situ Zhaixin shook his head: "This old eunuch's Internal Energy is unfathomable, even Zuo Sifei fell... Little Lang won't make it!"

"Dragon Tiger List Second Place—Tulongzi!"

"They are all White Guests from our company; if they take action against players, they will be reported 100% of the time!" the Secretary beside him reminded.

Aaron, who appeared to be on the verge of defeat, held a broken sword and faced the pouncing purple-robed eunuch. A smile appeared on his face as he sealed the sword's path: "Water... is my sword!"

The opponent stood with his hands behind his back, the very image of a Grandmaster standing like a deep pool or a towering mountain!

This scene made many players watching the battle curse: "Damn... they actually brought in outside help? The game company is heartless!"

"Sorry... no!"

"Damn it, just a little bit more..." Dugu Jian's face flushed red as he looked worriedly at the sky, letting the rain soak his hair.

In the hall specially opened for players in the building, the crowd was agitated.

After instructing Dugu Jian, Aaron smiled at the person who had arrived: "Miss Situ, long time no see..."

"That Lang Fantian? How could he do that? Forget it... I'm going to sue him!" Qianbukong roared loudly.

"Sigh... once the Black List Grandmaster is gone, this jianghu will be so lonely!"

"Damn it..." Situ Zhaixin almost wanted to smash Dugu Jian's dog head: "Don't you know how to buy your big brother a good sword?"

Pfft!

The sword blade tore through the air with the sound of wind and thunder, directly Rend-ing the purple-robed old eunuch's protective air wall, causing a look of shock to appear on his face.

Don't players enter the game jianghu just for fame?

Besides, how long has big brother even been in the game?

The company doesn't care about PK between players!

At this moment, a pair of solemn-looking officials had already used long bamboo poles to hoist red silk cloth, placing the Dragon Tiger List on the top of the wall.

Aaron wanted to laugh a little.

In the private room upstairs.

A row of Imperial Guards appeared, forming an Army Formation: "Before the Imperial Palace, no insolence allowed!"

Tietou and the other Divine Catchers pursued relentlessly, with Zhuge Wudi following closely behind.

Bang!

Suddenly, the battle situation changed again!

The next moment, Aaron moved!

"Congratulations, Big Brother, for making it onto the Dragon Tiger List!"

Zhuge Wudi issued an order coldly.

"How to counterattack?"

At this thought, he turned around, his Innate Internal Energy erupting all over his body like a hedgehog, and he braced against the attacks of the three iron-masked Divine Catchers, crashing through a wall and speeding away.

"Oh? What happened to those Black List Grandmasters?"

A player howled, wanting to rush over to finish off Zhuge Wudi, but was blocked by a squad of soldiers.

Aaron took a sip of wine, smiling without a word.

Countless streams of water suddenly reversed, gathering upon his sword blade!

Since ancient times, spilled water is hard to recover!

One after another, high-pitched sounds rang out in succession.

The entire Jingcheng was in an uproar because of a challenge letter from Lang Fantian earlier; that was the Forbidden City!

Even though the opponent was a Dragon Tiger List expert, he was only ranked a mere thirty-third; hadn't they seen Black List Grandmasters meet their doom?

However, there were never a shortage of meddlesome players; they would never lack the passion for watching the excitement.

Buzz buzz!

Dugu Jian said in surprise.

Dugu Jian's eyes lit up: "This time we'll play a big production from a big company; there should be less of this kind of messy nonsense!"

The Technical Director said bitterly: "And ordinary second-rate experts, or even first-rate experts, and even the army, are completely helpless against him!"

Pfft!

Aaron smiled lightly and charged into the Army Formation; he was completely different from Zuo Sifei, as every sword strike came from an inconceivable angle, seeking out the enemy's flaws to enter, not a fraction more or less, saving the most effort.

A soft voice was transmitted into Dachen's ears.

……

Aaron sighed in his heart and said to Situ Zhaixin: "Please, Miss, deliver a letter to the Emperor for me."

Rumble!

Game company, inside the main control room.

This was just a sword technique he had deduced from basic swordplay, yet it could ascend the Dragon Tiger List; truly—the pugilistic world is devoid of talent!

Seeing this scene, the corners of Zhuge Wudi's mouth twitched slightly, and ignoring this player, he turned to support Dachen's battlefield.

Buzz buzz!

The dense arrows in the void were instantly enveloped by this torrent, losing their force one after another and falling to the ground.

Just as he struck with his sword, a bolt of Electric from the sky landed on his blade, actually causing his sword to truly carry wind and thunder, with a flash of purple Light on the sword body.

Dugu Jian said loudly.

The company's White Guest cannot be used, but mercenaries can be, such as that old eunuch in purple robes!

After all, people are also here to play the game!

Clang!

Aaron's Sword of Talisman Water left its sheath, the blade emitting a clear chime, like a pool of clear water flowing into the enemy's formation.

Aaron struck with his sword in a sweep, and in the void, it was as if some power was triggered, using four ounces to deflect a thousand pounds, subsequently transforming into a torrent.

President Qian looked at the screen, feeling like he was about to have a heart attack: "If he comes to slaughter once every day... then how are we supposed to work? Quick... send someone to kill him!"

The old eunuch in purple robes said with a chuckle.

Aaron walked into the Imperial Palace, behind him a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

……

Aaron laughed out loud.

The bamboo-woven conical hat rotated like a blood-dripping weapon, turning into countless bamboo needles from an inconceivable angle, sinking into the gaps of the Imperial Guard's iron armor.

Not long after, one Army Formation collapsed, and then another followed...

Zing!

A drop of water was wrapped by his incomparably thick Internal Energy, and like a lead bullet, it shot out!

"Kill!"

But the Talisman Water Sword Technique breaks common sense; spilled water can be recovered!

Not only that, two completely opposite streams of water, which were originally spiraling along the sword body, suddenly collided.

"It's useless..." the Technical Director muttered in a low voice: "He isn't a Breaker, he's just using basic game mechanics to destroy the whole world... Simply put, this game has been broken by the player; it's good enough that the player isn't holding us accountable, we can't sue..."

The players were in chaos, arguing into a mess.

Whoosh whoosh!

Aaron said only one sentence, and his sword blade flipped.

Looking out from their private room in Bafeng Tower, one could just happen to see the walls of the Six Gates.

……

Aaron said softly.

Countless archers formed an Army Formation, and a massive number of arrows fell like raindrops.

"Talisman Water Sword Technique? Heh..."

However, Aaron's sword art exceeded their imagination; every time he reached an impasse, he could manifest a Weird vitality once more.

Even so, his chest was struck by Electric, and a corner of his robe fell away, charred black.

They logged off to go catch the real "Shui Mu Yin Hou".

Screams rang out one after another, and then countless Imperial Guard fell, blood flowing from the gaps in their armor...

His figure retreated rapidly, his hands dancing like Demon bats, scattering streaks of Qi energy that instantly linked together like vortices in the void, slowly dissolving the purple Electric energy on the sword blade.

Dozens of palace experts shouted sternly, leaping over eaves and walls as they charged to kill.

"Young friend... I am also entrusted by others to carry out their tasks. How about we both take a step back and call a truce... What do you think?"

Another moment passed.

Situ Zhaixin was so angry his face puffed up like a bun, and he gulped down wine.

A fragrant breeze blew, and a beautiful Shadow landed beside the two of them.

Situ Zhaixin said: "Now...!"

Bang!

Half a sword tip flew out!

"Future matters can be discussed in the future... This matter, however, cannot be settled just like this."

"Water benefits all things and does not contend, therefore all things cannot contend with it. Why? Because it is good at utilizing things..."

Rip!

However, he did not see much joy on Aaron's face; instead, there was only calmness.

But a true identity is the lifeblood of every Breaker!

Even if he is a monk, he still values his lifeblood very much!

A terrifying black hole continued to spread outward, swallowing the entire Forbidden City, the spectating players, the pugilistic world, and this world... all of it!

With every turn of Aaron's sword blade, several experts fell.

Aaron did not even think, thrusting his sword out.

"It's the Six Gates releasing the Dragon Tiger List!"

The Technical Director was on the verge of tears.

The display screen was pitch black, and countless indicator Lamps flashed wildly.

"The list is out!"

Bafeng Tower.

Aaron took off his bamboo hat and tossed it aside.

"Damn it, what happened?"

"Wait, the game company is so arrogant, don't you want to fight back?"

His sword art seemed to come from beyond the heavens, entering the gaps with no thickness, brilliant and peerless, beyond description!

Even if there were walls of bronze and iron ahead, they would be triggered by the Sword Light and instantly crumble to pieces.

"Where is Zhuge Wudi? Where is Tietou?"

The light rain in Xuanjing had just cleared, and it was cloudy.

Game Company.

Hearing this, President Qian's vision went black, and he fainted completely.

The people around were suddenly in total chaos...
