Martial Arts Master in the City

Chapter 749: The Mysterious Elder (Third Update)


Ye Xiao was aware of the strength of the Plum Blossom Group; even though he had prevailed in their several encounters, he clearly understood that the Plum Blossom Group was not to be underestimated. How could an organization that dominated as an assassin organization on the Sina Continent be so simple? Moreover, it was said that the Sang Group of Beihai Country was a subordinate organization of the Plum Blossom Group, which showed just how difficult the Plum Blossom Group was to deal with.

However, Ye Xiao was not afraid. No matter who it was, since they had decided to engage in a life-or-death struggle with him, what was the point of talking about it? Ye Xiao believed that the Plum Blossom Group would not give up easily and would surely send more people. But his conviction remained unchanged: one would come, one would die; if two came, a pair would be killed. If they had the ability to come, then Ye Xiao had the ability to kill.

Ye Xiao swung the Shura Saber and chuckled softly, "Today truly is a joyous day to have unexpectedly acquired such a divine weapon."

He was not sure what material the Shura Saber was made of, but at least he knew that the materials he had seen could not be used to forge a marvelous blade like the Shura Saber.

Ye Xiao took the saber sheath from the body of the witch chieftain.

He looked at the sheath and couldn't help but smile faintly. It seemed the sheath was also usable and also from Yan Country since it bore the letter 'Q'.

Although the letter 'Q' alone was not enough to confirm it was from Yan Country, what if the 'Q' was written in the converted script of Yan Country? That would indeed be significant.

Although the script of Beihai Country was similar to that of Yan Country, there were significant differences. From this 'Q', Ye Xiao could determine that the sheath must have been made during the Wen Dynasty.

Ye Xiao had no great dislike for the Wen Dynasty; after all, the various Emperors had been diligent rulers. Of course, when Xi Ci, that old woman, was in power, the shameful deeds she did were indeed disgraceful. Sometimes Ye Xiao really wondered why no one with a strong sense of justice like himself had gone to the palace to deal with that old woman back then.

But that was all in the past. Now, all the ethnic groups were united so there was no point in dwelling on the past. The Wen Dynasty was also part of Yan Country, so the sheath was theirs as well. Since the saber was from Yan Country and the sheath too, Ye Xiao held them with ease and content.

The Shura Saber slipped into its sheath, and Ye Xiao looked at the eight Beihai Country warriors lying dead around him. He sneered coldly, "Come on then! I wasn't even born during the time of the wars between countries, but now that I'm here, do you still dare to seek death?"

Ye Xiao, carrying the Shura Saber, left triumphantly, as if nothing had happened.

However, what he didn't know was that just a minute after he left, a figure appeared at the spot where the witch warriors had died. The man looked to be in his sixties, with youthful energy despite his white hair, and he stood smiling proudly in the direction Ye Xiao had left, as if he was delighted by something.

If Ye Xiao had returned at that moment, he would have been extremely surprised because this person bore a resemblance to Jiang Wuqi of the Jiang Family.

"The lad has made quick progress, to think he's even seized 'Emperor Wen's Saber'," the old man murmured with a smile on his lips. "Seems like my trip was in vain, but it's all right. I intended to give it to him anyway, and now that he's taken it himself, that saves me the trouble. However, this fellow has been looking for me... hehe, I might as well wait a bit longer before meeting him."

Suddenly, the old man's brows furrowed slightly as if he sensed something, and he immediately leaped away, vanishing into the night.

After the old man had left, about half a minute later, a group of seven people ran over from the Jiang Family's direction.

"What... what happened here?" The man at the head of the group was none other than Jiang Zhongzheng, the son of Jiang Wuqi and the father of Jiang Miaoke!

Jiang Zhongzheng had just seen his drunken daughter return to the Jiang Family estate and was heartbroken. He had intended to take good care of her and use Inner Strength to help Jiang Miaoke dispel the effects of the alcohol. But at that moment, Jiang Wuqi sent someone to report that there was fighting near the Jiang Family estate, and the intruder was highly skilled, urging Jiang Zhongzheng to check it out immediately.

When Jiang Zhongzheng heard that someone dared to engage in combat near the Jiang Family estate, he was astonished, especially since his father had said the intruder was highly skilled, which clearly indicated great strength.

Thus, Jiang Zhongzheng hurriedly led a few elite members of the Jiang Family to the scene.

However, when they arrived, all that remained on the ground were a few corpses, apart from which there was nothing else. But when he saw the Plum Blossom mark on the bodies of the dead, as well as the characters 'Shura' carved on them, he immediately realized who had fought whom.

"Find a place to burn them!" Jiang Zhongzheng instructed his subordinates.
