Liuyang Town.
The only way to the Mighty Sword Valley was to pass through a bustling town under the protection of the Liuyang Sect. The people of the Sword World were bloodthirsty and warlike, even in the surroundings of such a town, there were still many battles, and there were also battles within the town. Even the guards of the town could not stop the Spirit Cultivator s who were determined to fight, they could only watch and not meddle in other people's business.
There were many corpses on the road outside Liuyang Town, some old and some new. Most of them had been bitten to the point of being unrecognizable by the nearby fierce beasts, and the ground was also full of potholes, extremely uneven.
When Su Yun walked towards Liuyang Town, the two men and one woman he met at the teahouse outside the Evil Sword Forest were also walking towards him. Along the way, he could see many Spirit Cultivator s, and Liuyang Town usually did not have so many people gathered there. From this, it could be seen that these people were all here for the Mighty Sword Valley's Hero's Sword Discourse.
It was said that the Hero's Sword Discourse would be held in ten days. From here to the Mighty Sword Valley, it would take five days to get there, so there was no rush.
Su Yun wandered around Liuyang Town and went to the tavern in town to see if he could get any useful information.
The tavern and teahouse had always been a gathering place for the Spirit Cultivator. People did not have high requirements for food, but this wine was the eternal theme.
Drunken Lair was the largest tavern in Liuyang Town. The interior of the tavern was not luxurious, but rather simple. Moreover, the entrance was tattered, making it look a little shabby. However, this tavern was as crowded as a marketplace, with a sea of people, and was bustling with activity.
Su Yun walked in by himself, and the two men and one woman from before also entered.
"Sir, are you alone? What wine do you need? The wine in this shop is all divine wine. Not only can drinking it raise one's cultivation, it can also clear one's mind, strengthen one's tendons, strengthen one's profound qi and so on. There are so many benefits. "
A waiter ran over and boasted to Su Yun.
Su Yun understood this. Previously, at the teahouse, the tea he drank only accelerated the recovery of the profound qi, other than that, it had no other use, and it was extremely expensive, costing him tens of thousands of profound coin. This time, he was not fooled, and casually ordered a pot of wine, and drank by himself.
Although it did not increase his cultivation by much, the taste of the wine was indeed very intoxicating. The fragrance of the wine rippled inside and outside the tavern, leaving an endless aftertaste.
Plop.
At this moment, a muffled sound came from the entrance of the tavern. A man who was over two meters tall and had a body like a bear walked in with a huge sword on his back.
The man had a bald head, a stocky build, and a fierce-looking face. His profound energy was so strong that it was suffocating.
The moment he appeared, the noisy tavern immediately fell silent.
Pairs of eyes involuntarily gathered on him. The entrance of this person caused the originally relaxed and cheerful tavern to become somewhat solemn.
The waiter was a little confused, but he had seen this kind of situation many times, so he hurriedly rushed to the back hall to look for the shopkeeper.
It was obvious that he had come with ill intentions. Otherwise, he would not have released such a powerful profound energy!
The man's eyes swept across the tavern, then he took heavy steps and arrived in front of a table.
There were only two people sitting at the table.
A man and a woman.
The man was dressed in a colorful blademaster robe, with a feathered crown on his head. He had a noble temperament, like a young master, but he did not carry a sword. There was only an emerald green Desolator on the table, and he was drinking by himself.
Sitting opposite him was a young lady with delicate features, red lips, and white teeth. The lady was dressed in pink, and her skin was fair. She did not drink, and only sat there obediently, quietly watching the man in front of her drink. Beside her, there was a red paper fan leaning against the chair. One person, one umbrella, it was extremely harmonious and natural …
Seeing the burly man arrive, the man's hand that was about to raise the cup to his mouth suddenly froze.
"I don't like to be disturbed when I'm drinking."
The man said indifferently, then drank the wine in his cup in one gulp and poured it again.
Unexpectedly, before he could fill the cup, the burly man had already extended his hand over, grabbed the man's wine pot, and slammed it onto the table.
Clang!
The iron palm instantly shattered the wine pot and the table into pieces.
The things on the table were scattered all over the ground, including the man's Desolator.
The entire tavern was silent.
Everyone turned their heads to look at this scene. This time, no one said anything, and the atmosphere was rather solemn.
The burly man stepped on the stool beside him, looked at the man with a sinister face, and growled: "You are Lu Xiao, ranked seventeenth on the Heroic Sword List, right? My name is Zhong Kuang, my fighting strength is 90,000, and I am at the seventh stage of the Sky Spirit Master. I heard that in this year's Hero Competition, the experts of the Heroic Sword List can directly take a look at the Clear Sky Holy Robe, my heart is itching, I want to see my treasure earlier, as long as I defeat you, I can obtain the throne of the 17th rank of the Heroic Sword List! Seeing what my treasure looks like, I can also borrow you to spread my name, Zhong Kuang! So, Lu Xiao, make your move! I will beat you to the ground here! "
With that, the man took off the greatsword on his back and stabbed it into the ground.
Dong!!
The entire tavern trembled. The heavy sword smashed the ground into pieces. Some of the fellows who didn't sit properly were thrown off their chairs. They were in a sorry state, and the scene was rather chaotic.
The man called Lu Xiao raised his sword eyes and glanced at the extremely arrogant man in front of him. However, he was not angry at all, and said indifferently: "Your name is Zhong Kuang?"
"That's right!"
"I think you should change your name to Zhong Sha!" Lu Xiao reached out to pick up the Desolator on the ground and patted the dust off it. "Moreover, we can't fight."
"Stinking brat, you dare to look down on me!" Zhong Kuang was immediately enraged, and directly extended his hand to grab Lu Xiao.
However, before his hand could even touch Lu Xiao, a silent force suddenly shot out from the back hall door and directly struck Zhong Kuang's majestic body. His body quickly cracked, and like a collapsing mountain, he quickly collapsed. In just a few seconds, Zhong Kuang's entire body died, and his soul overflowed.
One move to kill!
Seeing this scene, the surrounding customers were all shocked. One by one, they stood up in panic, and some of them had already escaped from the tavern.
Su Yun's face congealed, he immediately looked towards the back hall of the tavern, only to hear a cold shout coming from the back hall.
"What kind of cat or dog dares to cause trouble here? Don't you know how to read the rules on the wall of this shop? I don't care who you are. Outside the shop, I don't care if you kill until the sky is dark, but inside the shop, if you dare to cause trouble and fight, you will not be let off lightly! "
A cold voice rang out, and a slightly plump middle-aged man, accompanied by two waiters, walked out.
Although this person was slightly plump, his expression was extremely serious. His hair was slightly white, and his eyes were deep and dignified.
As soon as he appeared, the people present immediately started whispering to each other.
"Is this the shopkeeper of Drunken Fragrance? I never thought that the shopkeeper would finally show himself. "
"So strong! I've heard that this shopkeeper has been hiding his strength, but today, I've finally seen it for myself."
"Yeah, it's a good thing those guys who are quarreling here didn't make a move, otherwise …" Tsk tsk tsk … "
The scene was boiling.
Su Yun quietly sized up the shopkeeper, and realized that his Qi was stable, like an ancient well, incomparably deep, and difficult to see the bottom. He was afraid that even if his cultivation was not at the level of the Spirit Emperor, he was close.
"Laifu, go clean up."
The shopkeeper said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Shopkeeper."
A waiter said, and then ran to clean up the burly man's dismembered corpse.
"Everyone, please continue drinking. I hope that all of you will have a good time in this shop."
The shopkeeper threw down these words indifferently and did not say anything else. He turned around and was about to leave.
"Shopkeeper, I was frightened in your shop. Shouldn't you compensate me?"
Just then, Lu Xiao, who was sitting at the side, suddenly spoke. His voice was clear and bright, and everyone in the tavern could hear him clearly.
The shopkeeper, who was about to leave, immediately stopped in his tracks.
Shock was written all over everyone's faces.
The shopkeeper had only used one move to kill Zhong Kuang. Although it was only one move, it was enough to declare his powerful strength to the crowd.
Who wouldn't be afraid of such a strong expert? But this Lu Xiao did not know the immensity of heaven and earth, to actually say such words, what was he going to do?
The woman gently stood up and took out a pink scarf from the inside of her waist. She raised her slender hands and wiped the sawdust off Lu Xiao's face.
"Sir, it is not our wish for such a thing to happen. How about this, our guest's wine money …" How about it? "
The shopkeeper said indifferently.
In fact, this kind of thing was extremely common in the Sword World. The people of the Sword World loved to fight, and there would be challenges everywhere.
However, Lu Xiao did not seem to buy it. He sized up the Desolator in his hand and said indifferently: "I do not lack this bit of wine money."
The shopkeeper's eyebrows slightly twitched. "What do you want, sir?"
"I heard that Drunken Fragrance Shopkeeper's Drunken Sword is unstoppable in the world. This time, I am going to the Mighty Sword Valley for the sake of the hero's sword, but after passing through here, I can't help but ask the shopkeeper for advice and experience the rumored might of the Drunken Sword. I hope that the shopkeeper can fulfill this small wish of mine."
Lu Xiao said indifferently, but as he spoke, he did not even look at the shopkeeper.
The atmosphere in the tavern became heavy. Some people saw that the situation was not good and immediately left, leaving behind a portion of them to watch the show.
It seemed that Lu Xiao did not come here to drink for no reason, but for the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper was silent for a moment, then walked over.
He stood in front of Lu Xiao and the lady, Qin Hong San, sized them up, and then said indifferently: "I have already sealed my sword, if the two of you are here to drink, I welcome you at any time, if the two of you are here to compete in swords, I'm afraid you have come to the wrong place."
With that, the shopkeeper gestured for them to leave and said indifferently, "You two, please leave. This shop will not do business with you two today."
Lu Xiao did not say anything, and quietly looked at the Desolator in his hand. No one knew what he was thinking, but, everyone in the tavern could see that his hand, which was caressing the Desolator, had already started to tighten.
Waves of killing intent rose.
The shopkeeper obviously noticed the change in Lu Xiao, and his face froze.
A faint light flashed past.
Lu Xiao made his move!
