Chapter 1691A: Elite Sword Family

A scruffy old man, a beautiful servant lady, and a young man carrying a sword was a very weird combination for a group.

Many people were gathered outside the Opening Heavens Sword Sect. However, regardless of whether they were foreign or local here, they kept a safe distance.

For some people, even if they did not do anything, others could tell that they were not to be provoked.

Such a demeanor was something others would be jealous of.

The young man with a sword narrowed his eyes and a flash of brilliant light crossed them.

He was one of the few people who had seen Qin Yu’s attack. As such, compared to the rest of the people around him, he could sense how strong Qin Yu was.

Qin Yu was so strong that it made his heart itchy. The long sword the young man carried on his back was silent, but it felt burning hot as it touched his skin.

It also wanted to battle!

The scruffy old man said, “Young Master, please don’t forget what you said before.”

The young man licked his lips, “I am just looking.”

All of a sudden, the scruffy old man frowned and he stood up straight. His bright eyes drifted to the empty space in front of him. There was a burning feeling from his eyes and no one wanted to look directly at him.

The young man raised his eyebrows. He thought for a moment and then said, “Old Huang, you take a step back first. I would like to listen in.”

“Young Master?”

The young man spoke gently as he instructed, “Act according to what I say.”

As such, the scruffy old man could only sigh deeply. He used his eyes to give a warning and then retreated to a side.

Buzz –

The space started to vibrate subtly, isolating that area from the sight of many onlookers. Yet, many were not able to sense it.

A projection appeared.

The young man cupped his hands together, “Jin Geng sends his greetings to Sect Master Hu Fu.”

The projection of Hu Fu wore a calm face, “Young Master Jin, I am here today to strike a deal with you.”

Jin Geng smiled, “The Jin Family has always disliked being used as the sword in others’ hands. Sect Master Hu Fu, you know this well but you still descend upon here. It seems that you are very confident in the terms of the dealing.”

Hu Fu nodded, “Young Master Jin, are you willing to listen to it?”

Jin Geng gestured with his arm, “Go ahead.”

Hu Fu explained, “The Opening Heavens Sword Sect was destroyed many years ago. However, there are important ruins in the sect that have never been opened. The reason why is because an honorable Sword Spirit still lingers in the Opening Heavens Sword Sect, guarding the last fortune of the sect’s grounds.

“If Young Master Jin is willing to take action and stop the Opening Heavens Sword Sect from being reestablished, I guarantee that I will send a complete Sword Pill to you within a year. Of course, the prerequisite is that you must be successful. Otherwise, the deal is over.”

Jin Geng’s expression was calm. He knew all along that an honorable Sword Spirit remained in the ruins of Opening Heavens Sword Sect. This was also the reason why Jin Geng was at Swallow Mountain. He was simply surprised that the Circling Heavens Sword Sect would strike this deal with him so confidently.

No one dared to play tricks with the Jin Family, not even Hu Fu. Jin Geng was very confident of this. Since Hu Fu suggested the deal, he must be confident of completing it. Furthermore, it was hard for Jin Geng to turn down this offer.

A Sword Pill was born from a Sword Spirit. It had no physical form and it was something that was partially real and illusionary. It was something that every swordsman would dream of.

If he could get a Sword Pill and merge it with his Origin Sword Dao, he would be able to increase the quality of his Origin Sword Dao incredibly. Not only that, he could turn the illusionary concept into a real form and he could merge the Origin Sword Dao with his body.

The benefits of doing this would stream in endlessly.

For a Jin Family swordsman, this was an opportunity not to be passed up on!

“Sect Master Hu Fu, I agree to your terms.” Jin Geng slowly spoke.

The expression of the scruffy old man darkened but he did not stop Jin Geng. Instead, he said in a deep voice, “Young Master, I will step forward on your behalf.”

Jin Geng raised an arm, “I will step forward myself. It isn’t that I worry about your old self, but in case things go wrong, I need you to step in to save me.”

He looked up at the smiling projection of Hu Fu, “Also, I believe that Sect Master Hu Fu would not want to see me be killed. After all, my Old Ancestor is rather favorable of me.”

Hu Fu’s projection hesitated slightly, then he nodded.

Shoosh –

He turned and disappeared while the space vibrations also vanished. The scruffy old man said in a low voice, “Young Master, your decision is quite risky.”

Jin Geng lightly answered, “I know what you are thinking, but not everything in this world comes for free. The Sword Pill – I want it!”

It was because of this that although Jin Geng knew well that there would be dangers when Hu Fu’s projection descended upon Opening Heavens Sword Sect, he still agreed without much hesitation. He was ambitious, and only by becoming the family head of the Jin Family could his ambition be fulfilled.

Obtaining the Sword Pill was an important step for Jin Geng to become the family head. It could even be said to be the foundation of his ambition.

The scruffy old man knew this clearly too. Therefore, he had not stopped Jin Geng when Hu Fu’s projection delivered the conditions.

The servant lady’s head was low and she kept silent. She knew her position well and she was destined to be a play toy by the young master’s side. She could say some things but she was not qualified to interfere in others. Sometimes, remaining silent was the best choice.

Jin Geng raised an arm and he rubbed the servant lady’s face, “Tell me something nice, I am going to step forward soon.”

The servant lady smiled, “Young Master’s sword is unrivaled; you will be victorious in battle!”

Jin Geng nodded in satisfaction, “You are good with your words. When I return, I will reward you well.”

The servant lady’s eyes lit up.

On the other hand, the scruffy old man was expressionless and he ignored what was happening. He knew Jin Geng’s personality well. Whatever he was doing now was just an illusion.

He was flirtatious and had sex at night to warm his body and conceal the hidden dangers of his boiling sword aura. This was also why he wanted the Sword Pill at any cost.

Reluctantly, he rubbed the servant’s chin again. Then, he withdrew his hand and walked towards the entrance of the Opening Heavens Sword Sect. His steps were not fast but his composure was steady and he attracted a lot of attention. Many people were staring at him in excitement.

They were rightfully excited.

With the Opening Heavens Sword Sect’s reopening, they could brag about being here personally. However, aside from that, there was nothing else that they gained.

What if things failed? The guardian of the Opening Heavens Sword Sect and the inheritor were unlucky and the ruins of the sect that had been successfully infiltrated would probably open to the public.

Greed would attract sword sects all over Swallow Mountain and they would swam over like bees. The people here may not get the meat, but they could surely drink some soup.

As such, the crowd looked at the Opening Heavens Sword Sect with surprise and respect but they were all secretly anticipating that the sect would fall. This was a darkness in everyone’s heart and it had nothing to do with being right or wrong.

At this moment, Zhang Xiashan had been defeated cleanly and it was unclear whether he was dead or alive. Yet, someone stepped forward immediately. If they weren’t senile or seeking death, anyone who dared to step forward was definitely the strong amongst the strong.

Jin Geng was obviously the latter. The expressions of those present and those watching the light projection curtain turned serious.
