Double Cultivation
murder by day
After leaving the Hotel, Su Yang wandered around the city until he found a group of familiar-looking people walking around.
After identifying these people as the Golden Altar Sect, he immediately approached them without hiding his presence, like he wanted them to realize it.
When the middle-aged man from the Golden Altar Sect noticed Su Yang, who was standing a few meters in front of him with a sword in his grasp, his eyebrows shot up in confusion.
The middle-aged man was unaware of Su Yang's intentions at first, nor did he directly think that he was the target.
After a while later, when the middle-aged man finally realized that Su Yang was staring at him, he spoke, "Who are you? And what do you want from me?"
However, Su Yang did not say a word, only raising his sword to point at the middle-aged man, which surprised him greatly.
Even so, the middle-aged man was not afraid of his life as he was fully aware of the laws of this city that forbade killing.
Once again, Su Yang remained silent.
"I don't know who you are or what you want from me, but you must be stupid or irresponsible to point your sword at me, while we're inside the snow city." said the middle-aged man.
At this moment, the surrounding people were all looking at Su Yang and the middle-aged man, their gazes filled with interest in the drama unfolding before them.
"Although I don't know what you've planned in your head .. I've suffered many defeats for ignoring people like you.." Su Yang finally spoke, his voice clearly disguised.
Although his voice was disguised, there was a hint of sadness in it.
In his previous life, he had lost some important friends just because he had not listened to his instincts and waited until it was too late to deal with the situation when he had to do so immediately.
Due to this mistake, Su Yang swore to himself that he would never wait until something unfortunate happened again.
A bloodlust quickly appeared within Su Yang's aura, something that the middle-aged man and the audience instantly realized.
"Don't tell me he's really gonna try murder in broad daylight?"
"Did he forget which city he was in at the moment? Is he looking to die?"
"Disregarding the rules given by the Xie Family is far worse than death …"
Not only the middle-aged man but even the pedestrians were shocked by Su Yang's killing intent.
"Haha! You're nuts! Goody! If I kill you now, it will be considered self-defense!" The middle-aged man picked up his own weapon, which was also a – sword that radiated with Spirit Qi. It was definitely a Spiritual Treasure.
"What are you going to do now, I wonder?" The middle-aged man spoke arrogantly on his face.
"M-Master Sword! "
The crowd shouted in shock, as most of them had never seen a Sword Master personally before.
"M-Impossible!" The middle-aged man muttered with a pale face.
There were very few acknowledged Sword Masters/experts/teachers in this world, and he was sure that he had never offended them, either, so who was the Sword Master standing before him now with killing intent overflowing in his aura? What did he do to offend her?
"S-S-Who are you ?! If you think that you can escape punishment just because you are the Sword Master then you are only fooling yourself! The Xie family will punish you regardless of your stature!" said the middle-aged man.
"Punishment? If they have the ability to find ghosts, then such a punishment is acceptable," Su Yang said, implying that he was a ghost.
"At least tell me why you targeted me! What did I do to offend you?!" The middle-aged man continued to speak. He wanted to delay as much time as possible, hoping the guards would come sooner.
Of course, Su Yang was well aware that the middle-aged man was trying to waste time by talking to him. However, he was certain that it would not take him time to kill him, who was only at the first level of the Heavenly Spirit Realm.
In the worst case, even if he was unable to kill the middle-aged man in time, he was confident that he would be able to escape unscathed.
However, unfortunately for the middle-aged man, Su Yang did not plan on lingering any longer.
Su Yang readied his sword and, a second later, sword intent covered the entire area.
The Sword Intent that Su Yang had unleashed now far exceeded just a moment ago, even causing the spectators to suffocate from the atmosphere.
As for the middle-aged man, as the Sword intent was directly focused on him, his entire body was trembling at this moment, and it felt as if there were thousands of swords piercing his body.
"PE ... PE .. PE ... KILLER! MURDERER !!! SOMEONE WANTS TO KILL ME !!!"
The middle-aged man, feeling so scared by the sword intent that he began to shout for his life, made his disciples dumbfounded, as they had never witnessed their sect elders acting so cowardly and scared, that was also one of the elders in their Golden Altar Sect.
"How unsightly ..." Su Yang shook his head.
Not wanting to hear the middle-aged man shout again, Su Yang activated the Nine Astral Steps, disappearing from his place and appearing directly in front of the middle-aged man in the blink of an eye.
"Learn to hide your killing intent better in your next life … "
After muttering these words, Su Yang swung his sword, and at a speed that could not be felt with just one's eyes, it sliced the life of the middle-aged man with a decapitation.
Immediately after killing the middle-aged man, Su Yang activated the Nine Astral Steps again, disappearing from sight before the people there could understand why there was a decapitated head spinning in the air.
