After skimming through the contents of the jade bamboo slip, Zhuge Hong, who was originally dispirited and dispirited, jumped up in the next instant.
"It's him! It's actually him!"
"No wonder, no wonder he could defeat me so easily. It turns out that he is Jian Wushuang!"
Zhuge Hong clenched his fists tightly as his body trembled.
The contents of the jade bamboo slip were about Jian Wushuang's identity and background.
Jian Wushuang's identity in the Lin Mansion wasn't a secret. The Zhuge Family and the Lin Mansion had been at odds for many years and they had spies in the Lin Mansion. Naturally, they would know about it after asking around.
Zhuge Hong also knew that Jian Wushuang wasn't a sword boy from the Lin Mansion. Instead, he was the Unparalleled Way of the Sword that everyone in the Anjiu Prefecture was talking about.
With this, Zhuge Hong was able to understand.
At the same time, the dispirited look on his face instantly disappeared.
To him, if he had lost to an ordinary sword boy, he would have suffered a huge blow and he wouldn't have been able to get over it.
However, if he had lost to an exceptional genius, he would have nothing to be unhappy about.
Jian Wushuang was undoubtedly such an exceptional genius.
"Mister Hong, when I first came to the Anjiu Prefecture, I heard about this Sword Principle Wu Shuang. However, I did not pay much attention to it at the start and thought that it was just a rumor. Now, it seems like this Sword Principle Wu Shuang is indeed extraordinary. To be able to destroy your Earthly Treasure War Sabre with the same level of power, his understanding of the Sword Principle Wu Shuang might have reached the Great Completion Realm. No one in the Anjiu Prefecture can compare to him. Even the previous head of the Zhuge Family, Zhuge Yun, might not be able to compare to him," the grey-robed elder said.
"That's normal. This Jian Wushuang was given the name by Xuanshen Daoren," Zhuge Hong said.
"Xuanshen Daoren?" The grey-robed elder looked confused.
"Elder Chen, you have been in the Dongzuo Sect for a long time and have just arrived at the Anjiu Commandery. It is normal that you do not know about this Xuanshen Daoren. However, Xuanshen Daoren is very famous in the Anjiu Commandery recently. He is a mysterious expert with extraordinary means. Although I have not seen him before, I have heard of him. My father and many of the higher-ups in the Zhuge Family are very respectful of him. Even the most powerful Commandery Governor of the Anjiu Commandery is very respectful of Xuanshen Daoren."
"There are even rumors that Lord Prefectural Governor once wanted to follow Xuanshen Daoren. He was even willing to follow him as a servant. However, Xuanshen Daoren did not agree," said Zhuge Hong.
"Oh?" The grey-robed elder, Elder Chen whom Zhuge Hong had mentioned, also revealed a surprised expression.
He knew that the Commandery Governor of the Anjiu Commandery was quite famous in the Wusha Barren Region.
The Commandery Governor was a top-tier Divine Demon and was much more powerful than him. Even in the Dongzuo Sect, there were only a handful of people who could match up to the Commandery Governor.
Such a top-tier Divine Demon was willing to be Xuanshen Daoren's servant?
From this point alone, one could see how powerful Xuanshen Daoren was.
"Xuanshen Daoren is very powerful and could be one of the top figures in the Absolute Beginning Divine World. However, Jian Wushuang invited him personally and gave him the title of Unparalleled Swordsmanship. How can this be an undeserved reputation? I have nothing to feel bad about losing to him, "said Zhuge Hong.
"It is good that Young Master Hong is able to accept this." Elder Chen heaved a sigh of relief.
He had been worried that Zhuge Hong would not be able to recover from this setback and that he would not be able to answer to Zhuge Hong's master when he returned to the Dongzuo Sect. However, it seemed that there was no need for that.
"Accept this?" Zhuge Hong snorted coldly. "I admit that my talent is not as good as his. However, this does not mean that he can easily step on me. Today, he humiliated me in front of so many people and also caused my Zhuge Family's plan to test the Lin Mansion to fail. How can I let him off so easily?"
"Moreover, his father is the City Governor of the Incineration Moon City, Zhuo Yunfeng. From what I know, Zhuo Yunfeng and the Lin Mansion Master are sworn brothers. They are very close. Once the Zhuge Family and the Lin Family go to war, Zhuo Yunfeng will definitely do his best to help. This Jian Wushuang will definitely become the enemy of the Zhuge Family."
"An enemy with such great potential who is known as Unparalleled Swordsmanship should be eliminated as soon as possible!"
The grey-robed elder, Elder Chen, nodded his head as he listened.
From today's performance, there was no doubt about Jian Wushuang's potential.
Compared to a genius like Zhuge Hong, he was several levels stronger.
If he could befriend such a super genius, he would naturally think of a way to do so. However, if he was already an enemy, he would definitely take advantage of the fact that he had yet to grow his wings and completely eliminate him.
"Didn't the intelligence say that Jian Wushuang will leave the Lin Mansion tomorrow and return to the Incineration Moon City? This is our chance! "Zhuge Hong said.
"Young Master Hong, do you want to kill Jian Wushuang on his way back to the Incineration Moon City?" Elder Chen looked over.
"Is that not possible?" Zhuge Hong looked over at Elder Chen.
"It's possible, but I can't do it myself. Today, the Lin Family must have seen through our intentions. Although we have already left the Lin Family, we are still in the vicinity of the Lin Family. The Lin Family has been sending experts to spy on us secretly. Our every move has been seen by them. Therefore, if Young Master Hong wants to do it, I'm afraid you'll have to arrange for other experts to do it." Elder Chen said.
"That's not difficult. The Zhuge Family still has some experts in the territory controlled by the Lin Mansion. I will send a message to the Family Head now and ask him to gather a group of experts overnight. After all, there will only be one Peak Chaotic Realm escorting Jian Wushuang back to the Incineration Moon City tomorrow. With such strength, it will be easy to kill him," Zhuge Hong smiled faintly.
Soon, Zhuge Hong sent a message to the current Family Head of the Zhuge Family.
After the Family Head of the Zhuge Family received the message, he also saw Jian Wushuang's great potential. Like Zhuge Hong, he wanted to eliminate him as soon as possible.
Therefore, the Zhuge Family started to make preparations overnight.
The next morning, the sky had just turned bright.
In the Lin Mansion, Jian Wushuang was already prepared to leave.
"Brother Wushuang, I will visit you in the Incineration Moon City after some time," Lin Yan said.
"Haha, there is no need for you to come to the Incineration Moon City. I will come to the Lin Mansion again soon," Jian Wushuang smiled.
He was telling the truth. Even though he had studied most of the secret skills and secret manuals in the Lin Mansion, there was nothing left for him to stay in the Lin Mansion.
However, the Lin Mansion and the Zhuge Family were about to go to war. His father would definitely help them and Jian Wushuang would naturally follow suit.
"Alright then, have a safe trip," Lin Yan said.
