Outside the Sword Gauntlet, Chu Kuangren crossed swords with the nameless swordsman who wrote the words "Sword Gauntlet". The Daoist Rhymes that they released affected the entire Hidden Sword Canyon. Everyone who witnessed this scene was extremely shocked.
Some of the strong sword cultivators pondered for a while before they went up to greet him.
"Rumor has it that the Black Heaven Sect's Lead Disciple is extraordinary. It seems that you are indeed extraordinary. I'm the Sword Spectrum's Sixty-One Moon Chaser Sword. Greetings."
"Haha, Black Heaven Sect's Lead Disciple, I'm Li Zhen."
"Black Heaven Sect's Lead Disciple, we've met before in Sword Prayer City."
"Brother Chu, I trust you've been well."
The sword cultivators outside the Sword Gauntlet greeted Chu Kuangren one by one. They seemed very enthusiastic, unwilling to let go of the opportunity to make friends with Chu Kuangren.
Chu Kuangren smiled and greeted them one by one politely.
It was obvious that he was already familiar with this kind of scene.
At that moment, a figure entered the crowd.
It was a middle-aged man in a luxurious robe. Unlike the other sword cultivators, he had a kind of merchant aura about him.
He smiled at Chu Kuangren and said, "Brother Chu, based on past experience, the Sword Gauntlet will only open in a few days. If you don't mind, why don't you stay at my place for a while?"
"You are …"
"I'm Qian Fugui. I've opened a Famed Sword Inn in the Hidden Sword Canyon. It specializes in providing food and shelter for sword cultivators."
"Oh."
Chu Kuangren was slightly surprised. "Then I'll do as you say."
"Come, fellow Daoists from the Black Heaven Sect, please follow me."
Qian Fugui yelled and led the way.
The surrounding sword cultivators could not help but discuss among themselves.
"Tsk, this Qian Fugui sure moves fast. He's already hooked up with Chu Kuangren. As expected of a businessman."
"Of course. Who do you think Chu Kuangren is? He's the number one in the Hundred Sword Spectrum. If we can build a good relationship with someone like him, there's nothing to lose."
…
Along the way, Qian Fugui introduced Chu Kuangren and the others to the various sceneries in the Hidden Sword Canyon, especially where the most mysterious sword scars were the easiest to understand. He was very familiar with the Hidden Sword Canyon.
"Brother Qian, do you live in the Hidden Sword Canyon?"
"That's not it. I just opened a restaurant here and hired a few people to look after it. However, every time the Sword Tower opens, it's also the time when business is at its peak. So, I come over to take a look personally."
"Over time, I became familiar with the Hidden Sword Gorge."
Chu Kuangren finally understood. "I see."
When they arrived at Qian Fugui's restaurant, everyone couldn't help but be surprised.
But how was this a restaurant?
This was clearly a royal palace!
Rows upon rows of pavilions rose from the ground, covering a vast area that was comparable to the White Jade Hotel that Chu Kuangren had been to in the past.
To be able to open such a restaurant here, the amount of manpower and resources required was definitely not ordinary. Moreover, it was even more difficult to guard this restaurant. If one was not careful, they might even bring about a fatal disaster.
This Qian Fugui was not simple.
Chu Kuangren activated his Eye of Revelation and glanced at his opponent.
"Qian Fugui, the owner of the Fugui Firm. He controls one-tenth of the Firmament Star's Spirit Stone reserves, and his businesses are spread across the four domains of the Firmament …"
When he saw the feedback from the Eye of Revelation, Chu Kuangren's mouth twitched. It was the owner of the Fugui Trading Company …
The Fugui Trading Company was the largest trading company in Firmament Star. They could be found in almost every industry that could earn soulstones. However, no one knew who the owner was.
But now, such a person was standing in front of him?
He had to admit that it was really a coincidence.
Qian Fugui arranged a few rooms for Chu Kuangren and the others. All they had to do now was to wait for the Sword Gauntlet to open.
…
"Chu Kuangren, I'm Murong Feiyu. I'm here to learn from you!"
Today, a voice came from outside the Famed Sword Restaurant.
A man in a black robe with a longsword in his hand was standing outside the Famed Sword Restaurant. His voice echoed throughout the restaurant.
All the sword cultivators noticed and quickly looked over.
When they heard the name of the person, they could not help but be shocked.
"It's him, Murong Feiyu!"
"Oh, this name sounds familiar. I think he's the Honorable Swordsman who's ranked seventy-first in the Sword Spectrum. He's from the Murong family."
"The Murong family of the Black Warrior Domain. One of the One Mountain, One Sect, and Two Families. Looks like we're in for a good show."
The sword cultivators in the restaurant were watching the situation unfold.
Nangong Huang and the others heard the voice too. They looked at Murong Feiyu outside the door with displeasure in their eyes.
"Who is this person? How dare he challenge Elder Senior Brother?"
"He's ranked seventy-first in the Sword Spectrum. My goodness, how dare he challenge Elder Senior Brother who's ranked first? Where did he get the guts from?"
"Not everyone knows what Elder Senior Brother is capable of. Most people think that Elder Senior Brother is ranked first in the Sword Spectrum because his Descendant Self Sword has merged with a Sword Soul, giving him an advantage. That's why they're unhappy with Elder Senior Brother. This person must be one of them."
Nangong Huang said slowly.
Beside him, Murong Xuan looked at Murong Feiyu with a strange look in his eyes. He looked a little unnatural.
"What's wrong with you?"
Nangong Huang noticed that something was wrong with Murong Xuan and could not help but be surprised.
"No, nothing." Murong Xuan shook his head and continued, "Murong Feiyu's strength is not ordinary. He became an Honorable many years ago and cultivates the Murong clan's Fiery Sword Technique. Its power is enough to burn rivers and boil seas. He's also an expert in the Murong clan."
"However, this is not the most troublesome thing. The most troublesome thing is that the person behind this person is the Murong clan's Young Emperor, Murong Yu …"
Murong Xuan suddenly realized that Nangong Huang and the others were looking at him strangely. He immediately stopped and asked, "What's wrong with you guys?"
"Murong Xuan, why are you so familiar with the Murong clan? Wait, your surname is also Murong. Could it be …"
"I have nothing to do with the Murong clan!"
Murong Xuan said resolutely.
"Oh."
The crowd responded and did not pursue the matter.
Murong Xuan also came back to his senses. He knew that his firm denial just now was rather revealing.
He said, "These are matters of the swordsmanship world. As sword cultivators, shouldn't we know more about it?"
"We're in the Azure Dragon Domain while the Murong clan is in the Black Warrior Domain. We're so far away. Who would know so much about it?"
Jun Yi murmured.
"Look, it's Miss Lan Yu," Nangong Huang said.
Lan Yu slowly walked out of the restaurant with a sword in her arms. She stopped in front of Murong Feiyu and said, "So you're the one who challenged Master?"
Murong Feiyu stared at the sword in Lan Yu's arms with a fiery gaze. "I'm the one who challenged Chu Kuangren. Miss, the sword in your arms is very extraordinary. Can I have a look at it?"
Lan Yu shook her head. "No, this is Master's sword."
"Oh, where's Chu Kuangren now?"
"Master is still meditating, but you're too noisy, so he asked me to bring my sword out. He said that he'll show himself if you can take a blow from him."
"He's not here, so how can I use my sword? Is he messing with me?! "Murong Feiyu said coldly.
"I can use my sword."
Lan Yu said calmly.
Then, the Descendant Self Sword in her arms trembled slightly. With a clang, half of its jade-like body was revealed, and a terrifying Sword-based Daoist Rhyme emanated.
