Legend of the Heavenly Swordsman
Ch.82 - Plan

Fu Chen stayed at the residence of Nobles Xiao for two days. Their change in attitude was more inverted than when he was healing Xiao Feng.

Fu Chen was treated like a special guest in the family to make him feel uncomfortable.

Fu Chen was initially unconscious for four hours after getting rid of the poison in Xiao Feng's body. While the man himself must recover his body for one month until he is fit again.

However, the healer suggested that Xiao Feng stay on his bed for a week. His body had been dying for more than 3 years, it would have taken a little longer to be moved back.

On the third day, Xiao Jung invited Fu Chen to return to the sect. Fu Chen was a little confused because his senior did not choose to spend more time with his father.

But when he asked that, Xiao Jung steadily said that there was a report that he had to submit.

Fu Chen simply obeyed him, the two then left the Capital on horseback. During their 2 week journey to Tiemao City, Fu Chen was slightly astonished to meet the many sect disciples in the City.

Xiao Jung said that reports of his mission had been given since they left the City. Therefore the disciples of the Sacred Sword sect rushed to secure the city and hunted down the Black Bear group.

Xiao Jung and Fu Chen approached an elder who was resting in a tavern. The elder slightly offended Xiao Jung for not returning to the sect immediately after getting the desired information.

"Then, how's it going? Has the group been successfully destroyed?" Xiao Jung wanted to discuss more important matters.

The elder smiled faintly. "We've searched every marked location. It can be ascertained if the group is gathering at their main headquarters."

Xiao Jung raised his eyebrows, he was not surprised to hear it. "Why are the elders still not attacking their headquarters? It should be a golden opportunity to catch them at once."

The elder chuckled softly. "Patience to disciple Xiao. Yesterday I got a report that someone also wanted to eliminate them. That guy's gonna give us a big favor."

"Who?" Xiao Jung frowned.

"Gem Star Tower!" The elder smirked. "Hahaha, the person they brought may be only three people, but their strength is worth being aware of. The plan is they'll see me in the morning. And we just have to go with them."

Xiao Jung was surprised to hear the name of the Gem Star Tower mentioned. To his knowledge, the organization was only engaged in the field of business resources. Is it possible that someone paid them to wipe out the band of robbers?

Xiao Jung glanced at Fu Chen, his eyes slightly sharp and full of probing. "Did they get any information from this kid?"

Xiao Jung was able to deduce it because Fu Chen had met Xuan Rong before, it could have been that the woman had gotten information after telling Fu Chen about the robber's kidnapping.

Fu Chen walked away while whistling slowly realizing his senior gaze. The coming of the organization and sect of the Holy Sword was beyond his expectations.

***

Fu Chen gulped his saliva roughly when he learned of the identity of one of the Gem Star Towers who was discussing at the moment. His eyes continued to glance towards the person without blinking.

"Is this the one who wants to marry the older brother? He just doesn't want to go back to the village. This man's face was truly jade." Fu Chen was a little envious at the thought of his foster brother getting this handsome man.

The man had a clean white face with a firm jaw. His hair is slightly blue and tied to the back, at first glance his face will look like a real man.

However, when a smile began to be etched on his face, Fu Chen was not sure which girl was willing to take his eyes off.

The man's face was so sweet, perhaps a man was also amazed to see it. However Fu Chen did not realize, if the girls in his sect also looked at him thus.

The man named Ye Huolang was discussing the plan of attacking the Black Bear headquarters with the sect elders. He had a lot of information for having investigated the group for quite a long time. And that information was used to seal the hole from the information the sect had.

"I'll have one of my men check out the base, while we'll be waiting in the woods not far from it." Ye Huolang placed a small stone on the map marked X.

The elder in front of him seemed to be stroking his chin and was thinking. "What if they're not there? My students have been watching the place and some of the surrounding headquarters for a few days. However, up until now the headquarters looked uninhabited."

"Then there's only one possibility." Ye Huolang pointed at a triangular mark on the map. "The only place they chose was this…"

"Right, I heard that they were very strict in protecting this place, there might be some kind of treasure that they were guarding at the foot of the mountain."

"Then, when are we leaving?"

"How many people did you bring?" Ye Huolang glanced at the elder.

"About 30 people with 10 students in between. Is there a problem?" The elder was a little surprised.

"Ah, no. that's good. We'll leave at noon if your students are ready." Ye Huolang smiled simply.

The elder nodded in agreement. Moreover, he had to inform his students who were still outside of Tiemao City. The two of them again drew up a plan considering the intended location was a little hidden.

Fu Chen followed Xiao Jung out of the tavern and approached the core disciples who were preparing. They looked quite relaxed despite knowing the battle was imminent.

"No need to wonder. Actually the members brought by this elder were enough to crush the Black Bear group. They were quite relaxed as they had gotten three people of assistance on par with the sect elders," Xiao Jung said realizing Fu Chen's confusion.

Fu Chen nodded a few times, then approached the horse he was wearing yesterday. "Are we going too?" Fu Chen stroked the neck of the luda.

Xiao Jung chuckled, "Of course, it's incomplete if we don't take part to eliminate the group."

Fu Chen smiled modestly in response. Actually he only wanted to test the combination technique of his Stream of Rafting and Shadow Dance.

The combination of the two is quite far.

Fu Chen was intending to fuse the two martial arts as his Rafting Sword Science was no match for fighting enemies in large numbers. He hopes the change can help a bit in the battle later.

***

The entourage of the Sacred Sword sect and the three people from the Gem Star Tower immediately left the City as the sun began to rise.

They each drove their horses at high speed. If their estimates were correct, then they would arrive at the location within two days at a steady speed.

Ye Huolang chose to take a shortcut by passing through the dense forest. They just rested when the night was getting late, the horses they were riding were also quite exhausted.

On the second day, their journey was slightly hampered by the appearance of a 300-year-old demon. The boar demon was two meters tall and three meters long.

Ye Huolang immediately intervened because he felt that the demon was at the same level as the Combat General. He quickly drew his sword because he did not want to spend too long.

The pig demon looked at Ye Huolang fiercely. His fangs looking up appeared to be a bit of blood, it seemed like this demon had just finished eating its prey.

The pig demon leapt towards Ye Huolang, his instinct as a beast said that his opponent was very easy to see from the looks of him.

Ye Huolang only moved to the side as the demon intended to butcher him at high speed. A moment later, a deep enough incision wound suddenly appeared on the stealthy hamstrings.

The movement is getting wild. By relying on his speed the demon was ramming in all directions blindly. Because he is a pig!

Ye Huolang was still quite calm, he could compensate for the speed of that pig demon easily. After being able to read a little of the stealth's movements, Ye Huolang quickly swung his sword.

With a simple move, Ye Huolang managed to tear apart the pig demon using his sword.

The pigs fell to the front of their company. He could no longer move because all four of his legs were severely injured.

Fu Chen gulped his saliva roughly, his eyes wide open to look at Ye Huolang. "Looky! I didn't even see him swing his sword!"
