Chapter 105: Master is Right

"Are you saying she has already entered the County Government Office?"

Just as Shen Yu was confronting the people from the Golden Rain Tower, a group of people was rushing over from not far away, among whom was Du Wenyao, who had been dragged out for a street parade that morning.

"Yes, Martial Uncle, we saw it clearly; she did indeed enter the County Government Office!"

"Master, can we not go!" At this moment, Du Wenyao whispered from the side: "My father said that in all of Sanshui County, you can provoke anyone, but you must not provoke this County Magistrate!"

"Hmph, trash, you still have the nerve to speak!" With a cold snort, the middle-aged man beside him clearly had anger on his face, looking as if he wanted to give him a couple of kicks.

When they arrived, the boasting was quite loud, saying there was nothing in Sanshui County he couldn't handle. As it turned out, after they arrived, they discovered this fellow was actually being paraded through the streets under guard, and he even had a sign hanging around his neck.

He, Cheng Yusheng, the dignified Feihong Sword of the Boundless Sword Sect, was a renowned figure in the pugilistic world, yet this disciple had caused him to lose all face; how could he have taken on such an unpromising disciple?

If it weren't for his fellow disciples holding him back, he would have beaten this unpromising thing to death on the spot. Upon hearing the other party mention the County Government Office, his anger flared up even more.

"Since this person has entered the County Government Office, then we shall go to the County Government Office to find her. A mere County Magistrate, how dare they not give face to my Boundless Sword Sect? And you, actually getting dragged off to be paraded through the streets—this loss of face, I, Feihong Sword, must certainly reclaim!"

After the words fell, Cheng Yusheng continued to walk toward the County Government Office, and all the others exchanged glances and hurriedly followed. However, just as they were about to reach the County Government Office, a terrifying Sword Qi soared into the sky, as if it wanted to pierce through the firmament.

"What a terrifying Sword Qi!" Upon seeing this flash of sword light, Cheng Yusheng's face changed significantly; he hadn't expected that in this tiny Sanshui County, there could actually be such an expert?

"Go, let's go over and take a look!"

When this group followed the sword light to find the source, they happened to see an old man and a young man confronting each other. Beside the youth, a group of men in black were already lying on the ground. Those people must have died under that terrifying flash of sword light just now.

"Master, that is the Sanshui County Magistrate!"

"What? He is the County Magistrate? So young?"

"Moving Wind Changing Shadow!"

The arrival of Cheng Yusheng and his group here did not attract the attention of the two people opposite. Following a light shout, the old man's figure disappeared in the blink of an eye, as if he had never appeared at all. No matter how hard they tried to look, they could not find a trace of the other party.

When the old man reappeared, he was already not far in front of Shen Yu. A sharp long spear thrust down violently, as if even space were trembling under this spear momentum, the terrifying power seemingly wanting to pierce through everything.

"Boom!" The old man's movements were fast, but Shen Yu's speed in drawing his sword was faster. Just after the other party's figure appeared, the Sword Qi had already pierced through this figure in an instant, striking the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust.

It was just that although this figure before them shattered under the sword light, not a drop of flesh or blood was spilled; it was clearly just a phantom image.

This familiar style of Martial Arts made Shen Yu think of the person who followed the Golden Rain Tower Master when he destroyed the Golden Rain Tower's Tanzhou branch. Shadowless and formless, making it impossible for people to find where the figure was—this was the most troublesome part.

However, the old man clearly did not give him a chance to react. Immediately following, several of the old man's figures appeared simultaneously, faintly surrounding him. These figures could not be distinguished as to which was illusory and which was real; it seemed as if they were all fake, yet it also seemed as if they were all real.

But in reality, there was only one person, yet just by virtue of this one person, there was a feeling of being surrounded.

"It's the Golden Rain Tower's Shadowless Instant Kill!" Almost in an instant, Cheng Yusheng in the distance recognized the old man's movement technique, and his brows furrowed tightly, appearing very nervous.

"This person's Shadowless Instant Kill is such that even a bystander like me cannot detect a single thing. In the entire Golden Rain Tower, the only one with such skill is likely the Golden Rain Tower's Fourth Elder. Could it be that he is the one leading the Golden Rain Tower this time?"

Listening to Cheng Yusheng's muttering, Du Wenyao asked in a low voice from the side, "Master, is this person very terrifying? Looking at you, you seem very nervous?"

"Of course he is terrifying!" Nodding, Cheng Yusheng did not refute, but admitted it very frankly.

This scene left Du Wenyao dumbfounded. One had to know that his master was the most concerned with face; in the past, even when speaking of people stronger than him, he would always refute a little.

Yet this time, he didn't refute a single word, which could only mean one thing: the other party was not only terrifying, but far exceeded his own master.

Staring intently at the scene, Cheng Yusheng said softly, "The Golden Rain Tower's Shadowless Instant Kill is known as traceless and shadowless, without a trace or a shadow. When practiced to a profound realm, it can make a person's figure completely hidden; even if they are standing right in front of you, you wouldn't know of their existence!"

"Especially this Fourth Elder of the Golden Rain Tower, who has practiced this skill to the peak of perfection. Back when he was still in the Innate Realm, he successfully assassinated a Grandmaster Realm expert using this skill, and he succeeded!"

"Now that he has stepped into the Grandmaster Realm, and I recently heard he went to Lizhou and spent a few months killing the Three Friends of Yushan without a scratch. Those were three veteran Grandmaster Realm experts! You tell me, is that terrifying or not?"

Speaking to this point, Cheng Yusheng couldn't help but sigh. If it was the Golden Rain Tower's Fourth Elder leading the team this time, I'm afraid their Boundless Sword Sect would return empty-handed. At the thought of potentially facing such a freak, he felt a chill run down his spine.

"No, that's not right!" Suddenly, Cheng Yusheng noticed something unexpected. How did he feel that the County Magistrate not far away seemed to be able to find the old man's position, and had even nearly succeeded in wounding the other party several times?

Could it be an illusion? No, it wasn't an illusion!

"Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin!" Just at this moment, hundreds and thousands of sharp swords soared into the sky; Shen Yu took out all the sharp swords stored in his storage space. The sword net formed by countless sharp swords was airtight, making one's scalp tingle to look at.

The most terrifying thing was that every sharp sword seemed to have terrifying Sword Qi upon it; the sword net dancing across the sky was sharp and peerless. Every sword seemed to possess the force of ten thousand jun, and it seemed as if it were endless.

"How could you possibly find my figure?"

"Of course I couldn't find your figure, but as long as there is something that can find it, that's enough!" His full power erupted at this moment, and several strange bees circled around Shen Yu, guiding the direction for him.

Just a moment ago, Shen Yu risked getting injured to flick a trace of nectar onto the tip of the other party's spear, and thus was able to successfully find the other party's position. Once confirmed, it was a continuous, storm-like attack.

The other party's movement technique was indeed difficult to deal with, so whenever there was an opportunity, he could not give the other party a moment to catch their breath.

Under the Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin, countless sharp blades attacked one after another; sword blades broke one after another, but it seemed as if they were not decreasing at all.

The old man opposite had a face that grew paler and more alarmed. He had underestimated this kid; this person had not only entered the Grandmaster Realm, but this Martial Art could actually control ten thousand swords simultaneously—it was truly too terrifying!

"Puff!" As time passed, the old man's support became increasingly difficult. Finally, a sword followed a gap and ultimately pierced through the other party, and then the sharp swords followed one after another without any intention of stopping.

Not until the other party's body was riddled with holes and there was no sign of life left did Shen Yu stop his hand. The sharp swords floating in the air also fell down, sticking into the ground.

Shen Yu stood alone amidst the ten thousand swords, looking indifferently at the old man who no longer had any life. "An expert from the Golden Rain Tower, nothing more than this!"

"Oh my mother!" Seeing this scene, Cheng Yusheng couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva; this completely overturned his understanding.

That was the Fourth Elder of the Golden Rain Tower, definitely ranking at the top of the list of people everyone didn't want to provoke, and yet he was just killed like this? In this day and age, a County Magistrate can be this fierce!

"This, this... Master, are we still going to reclaim our lost face?" Du Wenyao, who also saw this scene, carefully looked at his master; the scene of the ten thousand swords piercing the heart just now had scared him quite a bit.

No matter how he looked at it, his own master didn't look like someone who could win!

"Fart!" Upon hearing Du Wenyao's words, Cheng Yusheng nearly jumped, hurriedly saying righteously, "Our Boundless Sword Sect is a righteous sect; isn't it only right that you were punished for doing something wrong? Reclaim what face? You have the nerve!"

"Master, that's not what you said just now!"

"Hm? What did you say? Say it again?"

"Master, I said that what Master said just now is correct!"
