Chapter 289: Seeking the Sword at Mount Shu (Part 2)
Shen Qishuang asked about the origin of the Bingqing Sword, and Cao Gu said, "This sword is not mine. It was accidentally found by Master in a place called Binghuo Cave when he was traveling about ten years ago.
It just hasn't found a suitable owner, so it's been left there. Little sister, do you want to give it a try?"
When Shen Qishuang heard that the sword was not a trophy, he suddenly felt a little nervous.
Cao Gu noticed that Shen Qishuang was hesitant, so he said, "Little sister, don't worry. This sword has never had a suitable owner. If it really suits you, it would be a good thing."
Lin Yueru took down the Ice Green Sword and handed it to Shen Qishuang. Shen Qishuang waved the Ice Green Sword a few times. Although he felt a chill, he said, "This breath is so comfortable."
Lin Yueru said, "It seems that the person recognized by this sword is you."
Shen Qishuang looked at Cao Gu and Tai Wu, as if asking if they could take the sword. Neither of them said anything, but simply smiled and nodded.
Li Xiaoyao also got a suitable scabbard for the Ice Green Sword. At this time, Liu Zhuni walked around and always felt that the sword on the wall did not suit her.
She saw a sword lying in the corner, which looked as if no one wanted it.
Liu Zhuni walked over and picked up the sword, but when he took a closer look, he found that it was not one sword, but a pair of swords sharing the same scabbard.
The two swords are just over 90 centimeters long, and because they share the same scabbard, they are also slightly smaller than ordinary swords.
Seeing this, Tai Wu said, "Sister Liu, are you interested in this pair of swords?"
Liu Zhuni looked at the pair of swords and said, "I always feel that this pair of swords is filled with sadness. Why don't I take them away?"
Taiwu and Caogu felt uncomfortable when they heard this. Liu Zhuni came over with the swords in hand and asked, "Master Taiwu, Master Caogu, did I say something wrong?"
Cao Gu shook his head and said, "Sister Liu, this is not your fault. This pair of swords is called Chengfeng Sword, and they belong to one of our junior sisters.
"Some time ago, when the remnants of the Qionghua forces attacked Mount Shu, she...she sacrificed herself. These two swords have been lying there ever since."
The atmosphere in the warehouse suddenly became depressing. When Liu Zhuni heard that the swords were relics of a Shushan disciple, she immediately put them back and said, "Then...then, Zhuni doesn't want these swords anymore."
Cao Gu shook his head, handed the pair of swords back to Liu Zhuni, and said, "No... no, Sister Liu, if Junior Sister is still alive, she wouldn't want her pair of swords to be covered in dust here.
If you can use it to defend the righteousness of the martial arts world, my junior sister will be pleased even in her grave."
Liu Zhuni looked at the Chengfeng Sword in his hand, motionless.
Lin Shen walked up to Liu Zhuni, patted her on the back gently, and said, "Zhuni, please accept this pair of Chengfeng Swords."
Liu Zhuni looked at Lin Shen, then at Cao Gu, and then at the Chengfeng Sword in her hand. After a brief pause, she said to Cao Gu, "Sister Cao Gu, I understand. I will not let these two swords be humiliated."
Cao Gu smiled and said, "That's right."
Gang Zhan was getting a little impatient watching them choose their swords. Seeing the three little girls had already chosen, he immediately called out, "Anos, are you still going to fight? My hands are itching."
Lin Shen smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, now the sword selection is over. I also promised to fight you after the matter is done. Let's go."
Everyone walked to an open space. Lin Shen and Gang Zhan were about 5 meters apart, and the others watched the fight from the side.
Gang Zhan bowed and said, "Shushan Gang Zhan, please give me your guidance!"
Lin Shen smiled and saluted, "Anos, please give me some advice!"
Gang Zhan was not polite either. He rushed towards Lin Shen directly, raised the heavy sword in his hand high and smashed it towards Lin Shen's face. Lin Shen hurriedly dodged to the side and avoided the attack.
Gang Zhan didn't even hold back, and swept his heavy sword directly towards Lin Shen. Lin Shen used the heavy sword as a stepping stone to jump up and kicked out a slashing wave at Gang Zhan.
Gang Zhan retracted his sword and used the sword to block the slashing wave from Lin Shen's kick, but the force was so great that Gang Zhan retreated repeatedly, and it took him five steps back before he could stabilize his body.
Gang Zhan smiled and said, "As expected of someone who dares to challenge the water monster alone, he is truly formidable."
After Lin Shen landed, a ball of fire condensed in his hand and he said, "Your strength is pretty good." After that, Lin Shen threw the fire in his hand towards Gang Zhan.
Gang Zhan chanted an incantation and raised his hand to shoot out a ball of electricity. The ball of electricity exploded when it collided with the flames.
Lin Shen summoned the Star Spirit Sword and, grasping it, charged at Gang Zhan. Seeing this, Gang Zhan also charged at Lin Shen, heavy sword in hand. The two engaged in a ferocious exchange of blows, their blades clashing in a frenzy of combat.
The noise of the two fighting attracted many Shushan disciples to come and watch.
Because of the Shushan Competition, and because of the two previous times when the remnants of the Qionghua faction attacked Shushan, Lin Shen came to rescue them, so most of the Shushan disciples knew him. Those Shushan disciples began to discuss.
"Here comes this guy again."
"Yes, this guy is very powerful. Even when he's not in his prime, he can still defeat Senior Brother Taiwu."
"I didn't expect that Anos is on par with Senior Brother Gangzhan in terms of strength."
In fact, Taiwu and Zhao Linger all knew that Gang Zhan was no match for Lin Shen, and none of his killer moves were effective against him. It was estimated that if Lin Shen let Gang Zhan release enough energy, it would be enough for the Pacific Ocean.
At this time, the two were still fighting, and they had been fighting for more than one hundred and fifty rounds.
Gang Zhan was fighting when he suddenly retreated, sweat already on his forehead. He looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, "Hahahaha, it feels so good! Apart from Senior Brother Taiwu and Junior Brother Xiaoyao, fighting with you is the most enjoyable!"
Lin Shen laughed and said, "Then you'd better be prepared." After that, Lin Shen waved the Star Spirit Sword in his hand and shot out several sword energies.
Gang Zhan used the heavy sword in his hand to resist, and all the sword energy was blocked.
Gang Zhan said, "Brother Anos, you are truly amazing. These sword energies are extremely powerful. Let's decide the outcome with one move!"
Lin Shen replied, "Okay!" and then infused his Armament Haki into the Star Spirit Sword. Gang Zhan, holding his heavy sword, charged at each other simultaneously.
A flash of cold light passed by, and the heavy sword in Gangzhan's hand was knocked away by Lin Shen. It rolled several times in the air and fell to the ground. Gangzhan looked at the heavy sword on the ground and said to Lin Shen, "Anos, you win."
"I admit it." Lin Shen replied respectfully.
Qi Nongxia and the other four watched the fight clearly, their mouths wide open, enough to fit an egg.
Li Lingyun exclaimed, "Master is truly amazing. I really want to be as powerful as Master."
Anu said with a smile, "Sister Lingyun, don't hang up on Anu and pour cold water on you. Wait until you can defeat the Skeleton General alone before you talk to Brother Anos about improving your strength."
Upon hearing this, Li Lingyun immediately became obedient. After all, he had fought the Skeleton General twice and hadn't gained any advantage. But he said with some dissatisfaction, "I will do it!"
When the other Shushan disciples saw that the winner was decided, they scattered and left.
At this time, Lin Shen came over, and Lin Yueru asked, "Anos, how is it?"
"It's okay. I have to admit that Taoist Gangzhan does have some merits in terms of strength." Lin Shen replied.
"I'm not talking about this, I'm saying...say..." Lin Yueru paused.
Lin Shen immediately understood and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
At this time, Gang Zhan came over carrying a heavy sword and said, "Brother Anos, you are really amazing."
Lin Shen smiled and said, "No, it's all honed through actual combat."
Gang Zhan said, "If there is a chance in the future, I will fight you again."
Li Xiaoyao next to him began to smirk and said, "Well, Anos, you've also been relied upon by Senior Brother Gangzhan. If you come to Shushan in the future, you will have to bear it."
Just as Lin Shen was about to leave with Zhao Linger and the others, he heard a "gulp!" sound. Lin Shen quickly glanced over and saw that it was Shen Qishuang and Liu Zhuni whose stomachs were growling.
Seeing this, Tai Wu said, "Sister Shen, Sister Liu, are you two hungry?"
The two of them nodded without any suspicion. Seeing this, Tai Wu said, "Anos, do you want to stay for a few days before leaving?"
"How can this be done? You have already shed a lot of blood because of the sword incident. How can I bother you again?" Lin Shen said.
"You are being too polite. Not to mention your two times of saving Shushan, just based on the relationship between you and our Shushan, can't we keep you for a few days?" Cao Gu said.
Lin Shen thought for a moment and said, "Then... I'll trouble you guys."
"Okay, okay, let's eat now," Li Xiaoyao said with a laugh. Then everyone headed towards the Shushan dining hall.
