Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked. They didn't expect that the scythe in Ling's hand was actually hiding a gun.
Laura also reacted in a hurry. She didn't expect the scythe to be able to shoot, but in this way, she couldn't pull away from Ling. Otherwise, the situation would only be more favorable to her!
"Heyah!"
Thinking of this, Laura also hurriedly quickened her pace, raised her sword, and strode toward Ling. However, at this time, seeing Laura rushing toward him, Ling smiled, and then the girl's petite body flipped. At the same time, accompanied by a loud explosion, a bullet was ejected from the muzzle at the top of the scythe and hit the ground. At the same time, under the huge recoil, Ling directly flew backward with the scythe. At the same time, he held the long handle, aimed at Laura below, and pulled the trigger again.
"Bang bang bang!!!"
Bullets flew out from the muzzle and hit Laura. Laura also waved her sword vigorously, deflecting the oncoming bullets. At the same time, Ling kept adjusting her position in the air with the help of the reaction force brought by each shot. It looked as if she had wings and was rotating around Laura in the air.
"Bang!"
Another bullet whistled out and hit Laura. At this moment, the sword in Laura's hand once again hit the bullet in front of her. However, Laura didn't expect that the moment her sword cut the bullet, the spinning bullet would suddenly explode. A thick fog immediately appeared, obscuring Laura's vision.
At the same time, Ling suddenly grabbed the long handle of the scythe, aimed the muzzle at the wall beside him, and pulled the trigger again.
"Bang!!"
Along with the sound of the gunshot, the scythe flew out again. This time, Ling held the scythe tightly and rushed directly toward Laura in the smoke with the whistling cold wind!
"Woo!"
Although her vision was blocked by the smoke, Laura was still keenly aware of the murderous intent. She gritted her teeth and clenched her sword. She saw a golden brilliance emerge from the sword and suddenly spread around like a hurricane. The thick smoke was completely blown away.
The moment the smoke dispersed, the black scythe formed a spiral blade appeared in front of Laura. At the same time, Laura clenched her greatsword, assumed an uppercut stance, and forcefully chopped down!
"Boom —!!!"
The entire arena shook, and the ground cracked under the impact of the two attacks. The spectators had no choice but to retreat.
Then, amidst the smoke and dust, Ling rolled up with his scythe in hand and looked forward. On the other side, Laura also retreated a few steps with her sword in hand. She gasped for breath as she stopped.
"This is the end!!"
However, just when everyone thought that the battle was going to continue, a voice suddenly sounded from the crowd. Then, everyone saw a man dressed in noble attire striding out of the crowd.
"Father!"
Seeing the nobleman appear, Laura immediately called out and the other disciples hastily retreated.
That was the Light Swordsmith.
Looking at the man, Fangzheng frowned but didn't react.
In any case, he wasn't as handsome as him, so it didn't matter.
"You've lost, Laura."
The man looked at Laura and said in a low voice. Laura gritted her teeth and lowered her head.
"Yes, father."
After saying this, Laura looked at Ling again.
"You're very strong. I lost."
"Hehe, you're not bad either, big sister. Let's play again when we have time."
Hearing Laura admit defeat, Ling smiled and put away his scythe, then turned around and skipped back to Fangzheng's side.
"Big brother, I'm strong, right?"
"Strong, strong. My Ling is the strongest."
While saying that, Fangzheng reached out his hand and touched Ling's little head. Ling squinted his eyes happily, showing an expression of satisfaction like a kitten being stroked.
"I didn't expect Miss Ling to be so strong …"
Apart from the disciples of the Arsayed School, Alisa was the most shocked. After all, no matter how famous the Light Swordsmith was, he was still from another country, so they weren't familiar with him. However, Alisa was a citizen of the Empire. She grew up listening to the stories of the Light Swordsmith, so she naturally admired him very much. She could also see that the girl named Laura was very strong, far stronger than her peers of her age. But even so, she was still defeated by Ling.
Not only that, but Laura was sweating profusely, while Ling was still smiling as if he didn't sweat at all. This was enough to show the gap between the two.
At that moment, the man walked in front of Laura and looked at her with a smile on his face.
"It must be the first time for you to be defeated by a child younger than you. This is a good experience."
"Father!"
Hearing the man's words, Laura raised her head and looked at him with some dissatisfaction.
"But that girl is too cunning. That kind of weapon is simply against the rules …"
"It's the opponent's freedom to use any kind of weapon. You have to understand, Laura, when a swordsman fights, not only does he need to know how to stimulate his own strength, he also needs to understand the environment and everything else. That girl is younger than you, so it's not like you don't have a chance of winning if you fight head-on. However, she was able to easily control the entire battlefield and pull you into her rhythm, so this is her victory. "
"… Yes."
Hearing the man's answer, Laura lowered her head and obeyed. The man chuckled, then turned around and walked in front of Fangzheng and the others.
"Hello, I'm Viscount Viktor S. Arsayed. I'll have to trouble you to take care of my daughter."
"I'm Fangzheng."
Since the other party came to greet him, Fangzheng naturally returned the greeting. Viscount Arsayed looked at Fangzheng with a hint of surprise in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.
"May I ask why you've come to Reggram …?"
"Traveling. I heard the scenery here is pretty good, so we came to take a look."
"I see."
Hearing Fangzheng's answer, Viscount Arsayed smiled.
"Then, if you don't mind, why don't you come to my house for dinner? Since you've come from afar, I'd like to treat you well. "
"Huh?! Viscount Arsayed, are you going to invite us to your house? "
Facing Viscount Arsayed's invitation, Fangzheng and the others did not say anything. Instead, it was Alisa who cried out first. At the same time, she realized that her voice was a little too loud, so she hurriedly covered her mouth.
Fangzheng glanced at Alisa and nodded.
"Of course, it's my pleasure."
It would be a waste not to eat a free dinner.
After that, Fangzheng and the others accepted Viscount Arsayed's invitation and went to his mansion. They greeted his daughter Laura again and introduced her to the others. When Laura heard that Ling was only seven years old, she was shocked. She was already 12 years old, five years younger than Ling, yet she was easily defeated by Ling ….
Hmm, I hope this young lady won't be autistic because of this.
Everything went on as usual. The group had dinner at Viscount Arsayed's house. During the dinner, they mainly talked about Reggram. Of course, Fangzheng took the opportunity to request to take the little girls to visit the castle of the Saintess of Guns. After all, according to the information he obtained, the castle was currently managed by the Arsayed family. If they wanted to visit it, they had to inform the owner first.
Viscount Arsayed did not mind at all and readily agreed.
However, just as they finished dinner, Viscount Arsayed made a request to Fangzheng.
"Mr. Fangzheng, I have a small favor to ask."
"Oh?"
Fangzheng picked up his teacup and took a sip of black tea.
"Since it's a favor, there's no need to say it."
"Pfft ….!"
Alisa almost spat out the black tea in her mouth when she heard Fangzheng's merciless rejection of Viscount Arsayed's request. Fortunately, Tior quickly handed her a handkerchief to prevent her from making a fool of herself in front of everyone.
"Haha."
However, Viscount Arsayed did not mind at all. He just chuckled and continued.
"I hope to have a duel with you, Mr. Fangzheng. What do you think?"
"Huh?"
Hearing this request, Alisa and Tida looked at Fangzheng in surprise. Ling and Tior, on the other hand, did not say a word and observed silently. Unlike the previous two, Ling and Tior were well aware of Fangzheng's strength, so they were naturally not surprised by his request. Laura also looked at Fangzheng in surprise. She did not know what to say for a moment. As his daughter, she knew her father very well. In fact, he rarely took the initiative to ask for a duel with others. But now, he was actually asking this gentleman for a duel?
"Is it really necessary?"
However, Fangzheng's answer was even more surprising. He put down his teacup and looked at Viscount Arsayed.
"You know the result even without a duel."
If someone else heard this, they would probably think so too. After all, one side was a Sword Saint, while Fangzheng was just an ordinary person. There was indeed no suspense in the duel between the two.
"But I still want to experience it. What do you think?"
"Hahaha …."
Looking at Viscount Arsayed's smile, Fangzheng sighed helplessly and stood up.
"Sure enough, there's no such thing as a free dinner. Alright, just this once."
"Thank you."
Hearing Fangzheng's answer, Viscount Arsayed also stood up with a smile. He looked at Laura.
"You guys wait here."
"Huh? Yes … "
Hearing her father's order, although Laura was somewhat puzzled, she still obediently stayed in place. Then, Fangzheng and Viscount Arsayed left the dining hall. After a while …
Boom!!!
Suddenly, a dull sound like an earthquake sounded. At the same time, the ground began to shake and tremble. The frightened girls stood up and looked around nervously. After a while, the door opened again. Fangzheng walked in and waved at Ling, Tio, Tida, and Alisa.
"Alright, dinner time is over. We should go back and rest."
"Huh? Wait, where's my father? "
Laura looked behind Fangzheng in surprise, but she didn't see her father's figure.
"Your father … Well, he has something to do. He'll be back in a while."
Fangzheng gave a perfunctory reply and waved at the girls.
"Alright, let's go."
