The Azure Sword God
New Problem

Jian Chen's gaze was fixed on the Azure Sword at his waist. He shook his head because he felt that it was not important to hide his Birth Weapon because the sword was indeed very strong according to him.

From the information Jian Chen had received earlier, a person with a Birth Weapon was extremely unique in that it was able to polish a weapon's skill along with the addition of something to a sword like an element.

This was what Jian Chen wanted to know because it was certain that the intent of adding something to the Birth Weapon was to make the Birth Weapon itself undergo further evolution.

Jian Chen continued walking while daydreaming without noticing Xiao Yu who seemed to still be enveloped by grief.

After a moment of thought, Jian Chen felt no need to think about it for now since it was indeed not the time yet. As his strength increases, there will certainly be a way to achieve an evolution or an improvement.

“Xiao Yu, where is the direction of the city you mentioned earlier?” Jian Chen asked.

Trying to suppress his sadness, Xiao Yu also tried to check the area where they were at the moment. He did not pay attention to the road when Jian Chen took him away from the village. However, because he had traveled several times with his grandfather, he knew little of the path to the city.

“There.” Xiao Yu pointed towards the south although he was a little hesitant.

Jian Chen only gave a small nod then slowly walked in the direction pointed at by Xiao Yu.

“Hey, are you sure you want to go to that city? I heard from grandfather, the city is not a good place because there are many nest of criminals in the city.” Xiao Yu who followed Jian Chen tried to warn.

“No matter if it is a nest of criminals or a nest of Bandits. We need supplies to survive Xiao Yu.” Jian Chen replied in a flat tone.

Xiao Yu understood what Jian Chen said. When thinking about his life, his eyes re-glazed as he recalled the tragic events experienced by his family and the people of the village. However he was well aware that he should not fall as Jian Chen had said, he had to grow stronger in order to avenge his family and the villagers.

The two continued walking for a whole day without any obstacles at all.

Not long after, Jian Chen stared at a small town in the distance signifying the direction Xiao Yu was saying was indeed correct. While walking towards the city, he and Xiao Yu passed through small villages around the city.

“This is as Xiao Yu said. The villagers also seem to feel uncomfortable even for work and for life. Maybe the cultivators are rampant inside the city.” Inner Jian Chen while paying attention to the atmosphere that was in the village right on the outskirts of the city they were heading to.

The village that Jian Chen was going through did not look prosperous at all. Even most of the villagers seemed to always pay attention to anyone passing by with a wary look.

Brak!

Suddenly, Jian Chen heard the sound of a door being knocked down in one of the simple-looking houses. He immediately stared at the source of the voice along with Xiao Yu.

“Quick hand over the tribute that has been agreed every month!”

A man over twenty years old shouted loudly after kicking at the door of the house that looked simple.

After which, a hunchback-looking old granny was seen hurriedly giving away some copper coins that made the young man put on a dark face.

“The deal is 1 silver coin every month! Are you looking for old grandma's problem? Check out this house!” The young man's orders to the two strong-bodied men behind him.

“Granny old fucker!”

Plaque!

The young man immediately slapped the old grandmother until she fell down.

The staring Jian Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. Of course he hated someone like that, but he was very unwilling to look for trouble at this time because he felt that the tribute said by the young man must have been quoted by a certain group.

However, when he saw a brat running extremely fast to it, Jian Chen could only sigh deeply. He did not expect that Xiao Yu would immediately run over with an angry face upon noticing the incident. He could only follow because he felt that if he did not help, Xiao Yu might be killed.

“Basic bastard!” Xiao Yu who had held the two White Daggers in his hand also charged straight towards the young man. He could not bear to see what was happening, he had great respect for the seniors in his village and hated someone who bullied the weak old man.

The young man who had initially slapped the old grandmother looked towards Xiao Yu who leaped towards her and intended to stab her with the long White Dagger.

“Who is this boy?” The young man asked in astonishment as he waved his palm after he coated it with qi.

Plaque!

Xiao Yu who only had the strength of a first stage Martial Spirit was instantly slapped like a fly to the side.

After all, Xiao Yu did not know how to use qi at all so he did not have any speed or strength at all despite using the White Dagger which was his Birth Weapon.

Brak!

Xiao Yu was directly embedded within the walls of the simple house made of wood.

Jian Chen who had arrived stared at it blankly. He currently still did not understand why Xiao Yu seemed to have never studied at all. He had to admit that 12-year-old Xiao Yu did have guts, but had no strength at all.

The old granny who was staring at Xiao Yu who was most likely fainting was instantly frightened. He wanted to help but was very afraid to move in front of the young man who was carrying two bodyguards with him.

“Do you also want to try a boy?” Asked the young man staring towards Jian Chen with a slightly cold gaze.

“Is it so great to bully the weaker ones?” Jian Chen asked as he held the sword hilt with his left hand. He certainly had noticed the three men had second stage Martial Spirit power as well as himself.

“You think you're who's trying to lecture me? Break the boy's legs and hands!” The young man's orders to his two subordinates.

One of the burly men immediately swung his fist towards Jian Chen's face without a second thought. He had often done such a thing so he was used to beating someone old, young and so on.

Jian Chen's eyes stared coldly at the burly man. He immediately pulled the Azure Sword and swung it as he dodged the punch to the side slightly.

Srak!
