Swordsman of the Sword God
Ch. 227 - Shin Mo Yang Arogan
Ling Yan and Xi Tian were facing another young man while behind the two of them there were a total of 8 women.
The other group consisted of 5 men and 3 women.
"So? Miss, why didn't you come by my side? I'm sure you'll be safer with me and my brothers. If any horde of other demonic beasts were to invade the city again, my family would take care of everything.”.
The young man, who seemed to be a leader, looked proudly at the women behind Xin Tian and Ling Yan.
"Looks like you're feeling great, Shin Mo." Xi Tian sneered as he looked at this man.
Shin Mo looked at Xin Tian arrogantly and disdainfully, "Although your Xin Clan is one of the great clans, the Shinku Clan will also be the next great kpan, surpassing your strength." In his eyes there was disdain as he answered Xi Tian.
The noble clan that had somehow used to be under pressure from the Luo Clan and the Qing Clan, had already started to appear again, already, those few clans were very likely to become great clans after they had Emperor ranked martial artists within their clans.
Xin Tian looked at Shin Mo with a cold gaze, trying to withstand the pressure of Shin Mo's aura. Xin Tian's current cultivation was almost nonexistent in the First Stage of Qi Gathering as it had already unleashed its martial arts and started from scratch to cultivate, while Shin Mo was already at the King rank. Ling Yan was also the same as Xin Tian. The two of them clenched their teeth violently trying to resist Shin Mo's aura.
Many youths rose to the next rank easily after fighting between life and death a few days ago, against the hordes of demonic beasts.
Yu Shi then approached Xin Tian and stood beside him, grabbed his hand and stared coldly at Shin Mo.
Likewise, Yeu Wen also grabbed Ling Yan's hand, stating that he would not leave Ling Yan.
The other woman behind them did not move either. Just a little hesitating.
Shin Mo frowned and tried to suppress Ling Xi and Xin Tian with his aura.
"Ha ha ha!" Shin Mo began to laugh out loud when he saw the resistance of Xin Tian and Ling Yan, "It turns out the rumors are true!"
Shin Moterus laughed like crazy as well as the other youths who were with him also started laughing out loud after they understood what Shin Mo was saying.
"Well?!"
"Is that true?"
"It looks like it!"
"Ha ha ha."
"Then it's true about the two of them!
They all laughed with obvious ridicule as they looked at Ling Yan and Xin Tian.
Yu Shi and Yie Wen also frowned and turned to the person they liked with puzzled expressions, wanting to know what was going on. The other woman also looked at the two men in confusion.
"What are you talking about?" Ling Yan asked strangely.
Shin Mo continued to laugh like a madman for a few seconds before saying, "About the two of you who have lost strength!"
Xin Tian and Ling Yan finally understood instantly. Now they knew what Shin Mo meant.
It was only fitting that Shin Mo was so arrogant towards them. It was all because they had thrown away the martial arts and energy within them to cultivate like Fei Hung.
"You may have a power comparable to the Emperor rank at that time, some even claim that your army reached the Legend rank." Shin Mo spoke with a hint of envy before becoming calm and then arrogantly said, "But now everyone is saying that you used some forbidden technique at that time that allowed you two to increase your strength and after that you both lost your inner strength!"
Then, Shin Mo turned his head to look at Yeu Wen, Yu Shi and the other women behind the two of them and said, "You guys see? It's true what I said. Even the two of them did not deny it and tried to hold back my aura.Why is it not better for you to come with me? It is better to have someone who can defend you in any attack than two people who have lost their strength. I am a King ranked martial artist and in the next year, I will be able to reach the Emperor rank easily!" Shin Mo tried to show his manhood when he saw the women, but some of these women could see that there was obscenity and evil hidden in his eyes when he saw them.
The women turned to look at Xin Tian and Ling Yan and indeed, both of them did not deny what Shin Mo said, making them all believe that the two of them had lost their strength.
Xin Tian and Ling Yan understood why sometimes some people secretly pointed at the two of them and sometimes vaguely mentioned their names when traveling.
No wonder this Shin Mo thought they were becoming useless. They had started cultivating, and Fei Hung had explained to them that cultivation could hide one's strength when their strength had stabilized, it prevented martial artists from sensing the energy in their bodies because one had always subconsciously allowed some of their aura to escape.
Shin Mo did not feel any strength in the two, so he was now convinced that Ling Yan and Xin Tian had lost their strength.
The atmosphere became tense and uncomfortable at this moment.
Xin Tian and Ling Yan did not say anything to defend themselves and just looked at Shin Mo indifferently, it made Shin Mo feel angry for not seeing their panicked and embarrassed faces.
"Did you see it? They themselves did not even try to defend themselves. I'm sure they won't even be able to practice martial arts anymore". Shin Mo once again mocked the two of them.
The few women behind Xin Tian and Ling Yan showed doubtful expressions when they looked at the two.
"My uncle was an explorer and said that there might be hordes of other demonic beasts in less than a week that were going to the city. If you stay with them, the two will not be able to protect you, they will only become a hindrance in the end." Shin Mo continued to mock, saying more things, "They no longer have the strength, so they will become useless people. Come with me, our Shin Clan will send you potions so that you can increase your strength even to the King rank in a few weeks!"
"Ling Yan, is this true?" Yeu Wen asked Ling Yan with concern.
"Yes ..." Ling Yan answered Yue Wen honestly, but did not tell her that he was cultivating something stronger than inner strength.
Yeu Wen felt sad for Ling Yan, but then he further squeezed out Ling Yan's hand, "Don't worry, I won't leave you just because of that. I know that you will be able to have the same power as before." Yeu Wen said with a smile to Ling Yan.
