The Young Swordsman: The Taoist Priest of Qingcheng Has Descended the Mountain

“Zhou Huanzhen? I’ll remember you. My name is Wushuang.”

"Hahaha, I know, I know, it's the 'Peerless' in 'Peerless City'."

"The Peerless Sword Case... I'm also quite interested in the Great Ming Vermilion Bird."

"You want to see the Vermilion Bird of the Ming Dynasty? But unfortunately, with my current strength, I can't draw that sword."

Zhou found it amusing; the child was indeed honest.

"It's okay, you'll be able to pull it out soon."

"Of course, you should know that I am peerless!"

"Do you live here too?"

Zhou Zhen nodded: "If I'm not mistaken, yes."

When can I see your sword?

Although Wushuang was somewhat dissatisfied, he didn't say anything more.

Instead, he bowed respectfully again, then scratched his head, seemingly trying to figure out the direction.

Where did we just come from?

Fortunately, Lu Yuzhai came looking for them at that moment.

"Wushuang, what are you doing here?"

"Senior brother, you've come at the right time. I've found that person."

That person whose sword intent was unparalleled.

Lu Yuzhai was somewhat puzzled. He looked around and Wushuang realized that the person had disappeared, which made her feel a little regretful.

So much so that Wushuang didn't even notice that there was a woman next to that person from beginning to end; it was something he didn't need to pay attention to at all.

"It's rare that you would use 'peerless' to describe another person." Lu Yuzhai followed his gaze for a long time, but didn't see a single person.

But that doesn't stop him from complaining about his junior.

Wushuang reached back and stroked the still restless sword box on his back, then pursed his lips.

"That's because, before this, no one but me deserved that title."

"Oh? Even Master isn't allowed?"

"Master? Master isn't even a sword immortal."

Even if he is a sword immortal, he is not the only one. There are five great sword immortals in the world, so how can he be called unparalleled?

No, that's not right. It shouldn't be five, it should be six. No, no, no, he shouldn't be compared to those five sword immortals.

Because this person is different, I can sense it, and the Peerless Sword Box can sense it too; he is very different.

Lu Yuzhai was completely confused; his junior brother's rambling explanation had left him bewildered.

So what kind of person could make his troublesome junior brother so unforgettable?

You should know that Junior Brother has never had a good memory; there aren't many people he can remember.

He even suspected that if he weren't the senior brother who watched him grow up, this brat probably wouldn't even remember what he looked like.

But thinking of my master, I felt relieved.

I'm afraid Master would be so angry he'd vomit blood if he heard what Junior Brother said.

Song Yanhui has never been able to take that step, so she is not a sword immortal to this day.

Lu Yuzhai's curiosity was now completely piqued. What kind of person could receive such praise from his junior brother?

But after the initial curiosity, I couldn't help but feel worried.

It seems that many experts have come this time.

Wushuang City is determined to regain its prestige and obtain the golden coffin this time.

However, the situation is becoming increasingly unclear.

This small beauty village has the potential to gather masters from all over the world.

So, what exactly was in that coffin?

Many people want to know the answer to this question, but the answer should be revealed soon.

In the fragrant room, Zhou Zhen took a deep breath, while Tian Nv Rui's pretty face flushed slightly.

"Senior, this is where I usually rest. It is very quiet here, so please don't find it offensive."

Zhou was genuinely surprised: "Oh? Do I look old? You said we were friends before, why are you calling me a senior now?"

“That’s not the case.” Tian Nv Rui glanced at Zhou Huanzhen with a complicated expression and took a light breath.

"That young man comes from Wushuang City. I recognize him and know that he is the most talented sword genius of this generation in Wushuang City."

I've witnessed this young man's behavior and way of doing things over the past few days. A young genius, naturally, is arrogant and domineering.

His utmost respect for you suggests that he considers himself inferior in swordsmanship.

You also mentioned that you are older than Lian, so you must be a senior member of the sect.

If not for their elders, the younger generation would certainly not possess swordsmanship skills capable of making Musou bow down.

Chapter 19 Oh, isn't that Lian?

Tiannvrui is a clever woman.

To run a successful beauty resort like this, you need more than just tricks; you also need brains.

Moreover, the area has a high density of people coming and going, so information is naturally readily available.

However, Tang Lian had never mentioned that there was such an elder.

Saying they are senior members of the same sect is just a way to get closer to them.

Zhou was genuinely impressed by the woman's intelligence; at least when the situation was unclear, she had already gained the upper hand by adopting a humble attitude.

“You’re wrong about that. I’m not a senior in Tang Lian’s sect, but you’re not at a disadvantage if you call me senior.”

I really can't stay here. I'm afraid Tang Lian will get jealous, and it would make me seem disrespectful to my elders.

Tiannu Rui rarely showed a bit of her girlish side.

"Senior, what are you saying?"

"Haha, that's exactly what you wanted to hear."

You call me senior, so I should act like one.

I'll just pick any room; I'm not picky about them.

Oh, by the way, I have a gift for you. If you ever encounter any danger in the future, open it; it might be of some help.

Zhou Zhenhuan took out a paper crane from his sleeve. The paper crane was decorated with intricate patterns in cinnabar, making it look exceptionally beautiful.

"A small gadget, remember to keep it close to your body, it could save your life if necessary."

Tian Nv Rui was filled with doubt and surprise, but she still accepted it.

But in his heart he was thinking that he would definitely have to confirm with Tang Lian later.

In this world of martial arts, the most dangerous thing is never swords and spears, but the human heart.

This man has an extraordinary demeanor and claims to know Tang Lian, but ultimately his background is unknown, so we should always be wary of him.

Zhou Zhen saw through her thoughts and shook his head with a smile: "It's always good to be careful."

"Alright, you don't need to entertain me. This place is quite interesting; I'll explore on my own."

After he finished speaking, a gentle breeze filled the room. Tian Nv Rui instinctively tried to block it, but a moment later she found that the person had disappeared.

Tian Nu Rui was deeply shocked.

"Truly a senior expert, where did Lian meet such a powerful person?"

Tian Nv Rui recalled her actions from beginning to end, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she had not made any oversights.

Looking at the paper crane in his hand, he pursed his lips, took out his purse, and put it away.

At least, it's not poisonous.

At the city gate, a carriage slowly entered.

Lei Wujie was no longer as energetic as before; instead, he was listless.

The wind, snow, and dust of the journey had already exhausted his spirit.

The occasional appearance of wandering swordsmen blocking the road, though not requiring much effort, meant there were many of them, and a few would jump out every now and then, so it always took some getting rid of them.

It made the whole journey unsettling.

"Senior Brother, when we get to Beauty Manor, is there anything to eat? My stomach is growling."

Lei Wujie listlessly rubbed his stomach and muttered something.

Tang Lian smiled and said, "Of course there is, don't worry. You must have had a hard journey."

"It's not hard work, it's just a bit boring."

"You blockhead, didn't you long to fight others? This whole journey has just fulfilled your wish."

A desolate voice drifted out, sounding increasingly languid.

In his heart, he was grateful to Zhou Zhenhuan. If it weren't for that wisp of true energy from him, his body probably wouldn't have been able to withstand such torment.

Although he is not fragile, he is now physically and mentally exhausted.

"I long to spar with experts. What kind of people have we encountered along the way? And these people, why are they even following us? Are they really that confident in their abilities?"

Even Sikong Qianluo couldn't stand it anymore.

"Naturally, it's because of the things in our car."

"Be more alert; we've been watched by many people ever since we entered the city."

Sikong Qianluo wiped her spear, gently lifted the curtain of the carriage window, and looked around.

Tang Lian added, "San Gu City is indeed more lively than usual."

"Tang Lian has entered the city!"

"Okay, have your men prepare."

Inside the Beauty Manor, singing and dancing had already begun, and the air was filled with the fragrance of cosmetics.

The white-haired immortal sat in a private seat, gently raising his wine glass as he watched the dance performance in the center of the stage below, his mind filled with mixed emotions.

The news also reached Wushuang City.

Lu Yuzhai released a carrier pigeon, looked at Wushuang who was meditating cross-legged, and laughed, "Alright, no need to wait any longer."

The main culprit has entered the city; the outcome should be clear tonight.

Wushuang didn't move, but lazily said, "I know, call me when it's time to fight."

After a while, Wushuang opened her eyes and suddenly became excited.

"Senior brother, do you think that person also came for that thing?"

Lu Yuzhai was slightly taken aback, and after a moment's thought, he realized who Wushuang was referring to.

"Are you sure that person is very strong?"

Wushuang nodded solemnly: "High, so high that I can't see the end."

"Senior brother, if he's also after that thing, don't make a move. Let me handle it. I'm afraid you'll get beaten to death."

Lu Yuzhai: ...

Ignoring his junior brother's ramblings, he stroked his chin and muttered to himself:

"That shouldn't be the case. If he really is a sword immortal, why have I never heard of him?"

Wushuang's previous description made Lu Yuzhai's first reaction that the Dao Sword Immortal had descended the mountain, but upon closer inquiry, it didn't match up with the Dao Sword Immortal.

Furthermore, it is common knowledge that Dao Jianxian will not descend upon Qingcheng.
