The Northern Sword God
The Appearance of the Sacred Enlightenment Realm Practitioner I
Lai Chongde and his two friends from the Lai Clan took seats near the window facing the street. This man looked rather indifferent, he did not even turn his head in the slightest when the servant came to inquire about the food order of the Lai Clan's group. In the end the two friends who then ordered all the dishes they would eat.
“Why do you look like a lackluster Senior Brother? Shouldn't you be happy. Just a few weeks ago you broke through to the King Realm? I'm sure with your strength, then having the Totem Elf it's only a matter of time for you. None of the other Five Star Sect geniuses possessed the power of the Palms like you” A man named Lai Cuan who was a group of the Lai Clan was trying to console and curry favor with Lai Chongde.
Lai Chongde admonished his clan juniors not to speak rashly,
“Know what you Junior apprentice Lai Cuan.. Didn't you hear that from someone from the Demon Race Clan has broken through the realm of the King Realm 3? Even the news from our Lai Clan spies, obtained the info that this figure had comprehended the Sword Intent. I don't know at what level the demon has grasped the sword intent”.
Just now that Lai Cuan was intending to refute his senior's words, suddenly a voice interrupted their conversation,
“Hmm.. words full of flattery that lick the contents. Likewise the flattered looks like a huge enjoy of praise but pretends to sound humble.”.
From the direction of the stairs appeared five practitioners. They were made up of three men and two women. Those five people were a good looking figure when compared to the average person in the Silver Continent.
The five of their hair was so black that the soot on the cauldron had been burning for decades. The eyes of the five people also looked completely black, as dark as night. If ordinary people who did not know them, would immediately think that figure was at least the Elves in human form.
“The five people who had just entered were the group of geniuses from the Xia Clan. The Xia clan itself was the same as the Wu Clan which was the result of interbreeding Grey Elves with humans. The difference is that the people of the Xia Clan inherited their beautiful Elves and they were stronger in the Mental Dao or illusion”.
“While the man who spoke was named Xia Rong. He had broken through long enough in the King Realm realm. Reportedly he was preparing to break through the two-star King Realm. Next to him was Xia Yat Sen, also in the realm of the 1-star King Realm. Looks like we will get an interesting spectacle this time” Patriarch Ouyang whispered to Sima Yong's group. The curious smile of a practitioner who was always thirsty to watch the show among martial arts experts was clearly drawn on his face.
Lai Chongde immediately boarded the apoplexy When the discussion between him and the Lai Clan people in the serobot and in the mirror like that. He hit the table hard.
“What do you mean Xia Rong? We're not talking to you. You came to this place and threw insults at me? Do you mean to challenge me to exchange blows?”
Apparently the two people have known each other for a long time and are enemies. So clearly Lai Chongde became angry when he heard Xia Rong's insinuation like that. The atmosphere instantly became hot. Some visitors who were eating there immediately took a step away from the debate area. Some of the servants started to panic. Indeed, the occurrence of such clashes was very frequent in the Fugitive City of Falling Star City.
Rush the Restaurant Manager out and try to mediate. With a worried voice mixed with glass he said,
“Young master both..please if you are going to fight..don't be in this restaurant of ours. You can pick up the debate arena on the highway below. Rules in our Falling Star City, allowing debates between experts to be conducted on all streets of Falling Star City”.
Xia Rong threw a pouch toward Restaurant Manager Youya. After peeking in and investigating the contents of the pouch, the manager of the restaurant smiled weakly. A total of 150 energy stone class venti would definitely be able to cover the losses on the second floor due to the dispute. “Hm.. young people from the rich indeed dissipate stone energy like drinking a glass of water just” thought the manager. He also passed.
As soon as the manager entered the core building of the restaurant, a giant golden palm followed was released towards Xia Rong. Lai Chongde had apparently attacked Xia Rong with a unique Technique from the Xia Clan.
“Trail Clutches White Tigers”
Xia Rong managed to dodge the palm strike, but the four people behind him were seen staggering and falling down in the wind of the White Tiger's Clutch Palm attack. His anger rose and immediately he retaliated against the attack earlier with a Soul Technique that was no less violent.
“Lamentations of the soul...!!”
When the soul technique was launched, everyone on the second floor immediately felt goosebumps. The feeling of illusions made their world feel narrowed. Accompanied by the cry of the creature that caused the illusion of the soul Xia Rong lunged while swinging the sword in her hand.
As Xia Rong's sword drew closer to his opponent, Lai Chongde's fierce clasping punched towards the sword. The sharp sword was met with a fist. Of course the scene made the audience hold their breath. When the fist finally met the sword, a golden light shot out and enveloped Lai Chongde's fist.
“Duaar...!!”
The two practitioners were both thrown backwards due to the impact. The desk chair and everything that was paraded close, seemed to have fallen apart. After balancing the body due to the impact earlier, the two stared at each other sharply from a distance of 20 meters.
“Xia Rong's…. It is not yet time to determine who is superior. The hunt for the Elf Domain will be opened in a few days. I'll wait for you in the elf domain later..” After saying those threatening words, Lai chongde flashed leaving Youya Restaurant. Both of his friends followed in his footsteps to leave.
The situation on the second floor of the restaurant became silent as Lai Chongde died. Meanwhile Xia Rong after checking the health condition of her four sect mates, and she saw that they were fine then she said.
“Let's go, I've lost appetite” the man left Youya Restaurant followed by four people from the Xia Clan. Xia Rong's face looked extremely unsightly. He felt very angry. That Lai Chongde who had only broken through the King Realm several days ago had been able to withstand all of his attacks. Whether it was a soul attack or a sword attack.
******
After those two geniuses of the Lai and Xia Clans left the Restaurant, the situation returned to a fuss. There was a lot of discussion among the diners. Everyone talked about the discussion earlier. Each expressed the opinion that who is the most superior among the two geniuses.
Falling Star City for a while was peaceful. After the debate between the geniuses of the Lai Clan and the Xia Clan no longer appeared interesting events such as the debate of the young whiz-jago of the Six Five Star Sect.
Although one after another the genius representatives of the Five Star Sect had come in that City, until when the schedule for tomorrow's hunting event was about to begin, it was due to start, there was no word yet of anyone from the demon race appearing in the Falling Star City.
“Will the demon race cancel sending their representatives following this hunt? Why hasn't the race seen anyone's stuff?” Sima Yong spoke while staring into space as if waiting for the arrival of a race that is said to have closed itself off for so many years.
Since all the guests were given a place to stay in the Wu Clan guest Pavilion, Sima Yong took the time to chat with the Clan Patriarch Ouyang.
Sima Yong after gaining access to read up to the 3rd floor of the Wu Clan's library (his reward for healing Wu Zhen and healing Patriarch Wu's soul wounds) almost daily visited the Wu Clan to study array techniques and asked Elder Wu Wangtian for guidance.
“I don't think that the demon race will waste the opportunity to enter that domain. All I heard was that there was a secret of the Wu Clan in there. Actually the Wu Clan keeps in secret the existence of that thing in domain”.
“But the news about the existence of a Totem in the form of a mask of the Grey Elf in the domain is increasingly a public secret and much discussed. The thing that was once a secret of the Wu Clan, was now even the subject of everyone's conversation".
"Look..so many strange practitioners are arriving to Falling Star City.” Patriarch Ouyang looked like he was laughing at a secret that was now no longer a secret.
“Do not think such strange practitioners just come to look around the crowd. The ones I was with from the Ouyang Clan spies, all came to this City with the intention to try their luck. All parties are interested in getting the Elf Secret Totem it”
That Ouyang Clan Patriarch's explanation made Sima Yong's eyes bulge in surprise. “What?? The existence of the totem is no longer a secret?”
But he calmed his heart. The details and usefulness of the Totem did not seem to be known to the general public. And isn't it necessary to operate the totem for high soul power and magic comprehension? Sima Yong became relieved. The opportunity for him is still there.
That night When the people were just about to rest, the group of the demon race made a furore of their arrival. Accompanied by the echoing sounds of flutes, the spirit ship of 10 geniuses and the Patriarch of the demon race appeared intimidating in the sky of Falling Star City.
