Chapter 51 Sharpening the Sword
Talk about it.

This was the first time that Su Chen encountered a demon. They were about ten feet tall, an ox and a tiger, both in human form, with bright fur, or as hard as iron. They were inhuman monsters, with dark and foggy demonic aura condensed like armor all over their bodies.

Facing an ox and a tiger, two second-grade demons attacking him, Su Chen did not even raise his eyes, and kept staring at the carriage.

Precisely.

Looking at the pile of debris and flesh, there was still a crying head, although it was bitten beyond recognition. It was Xiao Yangzi, whom I had just seen a few days ago.

"You're still so weak. You'll just be crying when the time comes."

Su Chen walked towards the carriage.

"careful!"

"He is number one on the martial arts list, Little Grandmaster Fengxue!"

There was a roar.

at this time.

The red-robed man gritted his teeth and stood up, forcing himself to pull himself together and propping up his still shaking legs. He knew he would die either way, so he might as well give it a try.

Two second-grade demons, hunting down first-grade cultivators is easy.

Even if we can't keep Su Gong, if a fierce fight breaks out and we can drag it out until the three first-class demons notice the disturbances here and come here, there is still a chance.

"First-grade cultivation?"

"Ha ha!"

"First-class flesh and blood comes as soon as I say it, it's wonderful."

The two demons, one ox and one tiger, both showed mockery, breathing heavily and swallowing their saliva. It was not like they had not killed a first-grade cultivator before.

To this day, they still savor the delicious taste of flesh and blood.

moment.

They burst out with dark demonic energy, crushed the wind and snow, stepped on the black soil, and came heavily on the left and right, with violent winds and waves and snow all over the sky.

"Want to eat me? Are you qualified?"

Su Chen raised his eyes and glanced at them.

boom!
An unprecedented sense of terror surged into the hearts of the two demons. At this moment, they even felt that they were facing a first-class demon lord.

not good!

This human cultivator is a tough guy.

"withdraw!"

Without waiting for them to show fear.

Thundering sounds came from Su Chen's bones and muscles. Ninety-nine thunder sounds exploded in an instant, and the resulting thunder force gushed out.

boom!
At this moment, two demons, a tiger and an ox, passed by Su Chen who was moving forward. Bringing with them the wind and waves, they stomped heavily on the ground. Spider-web-like cracks spread on the frozen ground, stretching far away as if there was no end.

"There's a show!"

"As expected of a second-grade demon, he fought recklessly with Su Chen, yet he remained unscathed. It seems he can hold out until the three first-grade demons arrive."

"There is a lot of potential! There is a lot of potential..."

The red-robed figure was ecstatic. His originally pale face instantly turned rosy and he revealed a smile of relief.

After all, Su Chen is only a second-grade one.

They are both of the second rank, and with him included, how can they not fight against Su Chen?
He survived!
next moment.

The red-robed man could no longer laugh.

puff!
The two ten-foot-tall demons began to tremble, and spider-web-like cracks kept appearing on them, gushing out filthy black demon blood.

Crash.

A cow and a tiger fell to the ground one after another.

They were originally so vigorous and high-spirited, but now, they have turned into debris and meat all over the ground, without any of their previous arrogance.

"This……"

The red-robed statue's eyes widened, and he felt a chill run down his spine. The courage he had built up with great difficulty to stand up was gone in an instant.

The knees went weak.

He knelt on the ground again, trembling with fear and trepidation, like mud.

The demon is defeated in the snap of a finger.

No.

Su Chen didn't even raise his finger, and two second-grade demons were destroyed!
He became stronger.

Or.

The library back then was unable to bring out Mr. Su’s true strength.

"Mr. Su, spare me!"

“Forgive me!”

The red-robed figure trembled and kowtowed repeatedly, and in an instant, blood began to flow from his scalp.

He finally recalled that night in the library, when Su Chen stepped into the second rank and suppressed three first rank masters with his unparalleled style!

"Why bother?"

"Having escaped the ordeal in the library two years ago, why did he have to die on a snowy night two years later?"

"You kill yourself."

After Su Chen finished speaking, he didn't even look at him. In the carriage, he tried to piece together Xiao Yangzi, who only had his head left.

pity.

Xiao Yangzi, the other body fragments are probably in the stomachs of other monsters.

once Upon a time.

Su Chen huddled in the library. The red-robed man from the inner palace, whom he needed to look up to, had become a small character kneeling at his feet whom he was too lazy to even look at.

"You want me to commit suicide?"

The man in red robe was not willing to do that. Seeing Su Chen's back to him, he turned around and ran without hesitation. His anger surged like a fire as he fled towards the Tianwu Tower.

"presumptuous!"

"Master Su asked you to commit suicide. Are you deaf? Didn't you hear it?"

Cold voice.

A bright red python robe blocked the path of the red-robed statue.

"Go away!"

"Do you really take your position as the head of the West Factory seriously?"

"We, the chief eunuchs, respect the power bestowed upon you by His Majesty and the 10,000 Western Factory cavalrymen under your command, not your rubbish level 3 cultivation..."

The man in red robe cursed angrily and tried to kill Xu Han with a wave of his hand.

A young man who rose to prominence when Emperor Jianwu took office, full of potential, and whose rank was the limit, yet you dare to touch his beard and ask him to commit suicide? !

Do you think your name is Su Chen?
puff!
The blood mist exploded.

The second-rank red-robed statue looked in disbelief at the palm of true energy that pierced through his raging energy, his eyes full of disbelief.

When did this Lord of the West Factory become a first-grade junior master of True Yuan?
He... is only in his thirties.

"Zhang Gui's complete Heaven Devouring Demonic Skill..."

Before he could finish his words, terrifying true energy surged into his body, devouring all his anger and sucking him dry.

On the other side, Su Chen was digging a pit, digging out the corpses on the ground one by one, and reburying them so that they would not be exposed in the wilderness.

Su Chen buried tens of thousands of exposed corpses for two days and one night.

There are small graves all over the ground.

Done everything.

The snow and wind in the sky have become much lighter.

"Master Su."

For these two days and one night, Xu Han followed Su Chen closely, never leaving his side.

"how?"

"Are you afraid that I've lost my mind and will kill the little emperor? Don't worry, I'm not that stupid. Not to mention the mysterious white robe that I still can't understand, I might not be able to defeat even a first-class demon."

"I won't strike out with this sword unless I am completely sure..."

Su Chen wiped the dirt off his hands.

Then left.

soon.

The Western Factory guards gathered together, looking at the traces all over the ground, as well as the corpses of the red-robed man and the demon, with horror on their faces.

"What are you looking at? I killed them all. Hurry up and clean up the mess..."

"Master, is it too much of a stretch to attack the little emperor now? What if they become alert?"

"No problem!" "Release the Great Zhou butcher in the prison and let him take the blame. Since we are cooperating with the Great Zhou, this is a good opportunity to show our sincerity."

After dealing with his confidant, Xu Han rushed to the pharmacy without stopping.

Seeing Su Chen waving a fire stick and making some gestures that looked like sword moves in the pharmacy, he breathed a sigh of relief.

It would have been better if I hadn’t killed the little emperor.

No one knew better than him what the little emperor was planning, and how terrifying that white-robed man was...

"Xiao Hanzi, go and help me forge a sword."

Su Chen looked at Xu Han.

Xu Han was stunned. No one had called him by that name for many years. The last person who called him by that name had been drowned by him.

At this moment, he seemed to have returned to the past and bowed respectfully.

"Okay, Master Su."

Walk out of the pharmacy.

His eyes sparkled.

"Master Su deserves to be the most powerful sword."

"It's just right. This will let people know that I am a junior master of the True Essence. No matter what, I can't lose face for Master Su."

a few days later.

The world is in turmoil.

The court was also shocked.

Even the little emperor looked at him with awe.

Just because Mr. Xu from the Western Factory, who was once predicted to have a slim chance of becoming a second-rank official in his lifetime, led three thousand guards in brocade clothes and descended on the sword-washing pool of the three major sects in the past.

With a finger, wind and thunder gathered and the Sword Washing Pool was razed to the ground. As a top-level first-rank master and a junior master of true essence, he destroyed the newly born first-rank master in the Sword Washing Pool and took away the world-famous magic weapon, Xichen Sword.

It is rumored that the Xichen Sword is indestructible, able to carry all kinds of true meanings, and borrow the power of heaven and earth. It was once the sword of a great master.

pharmacy.

In front of the fire.

Looking at the Xichen Sword, which was azure blue in color but surrounded by a bloody smell, Su Chen was speechless.

"Killed again?"

"If I remember correctly, I asked you to go to the blacksmith shop and make me an ordinary iron sword."

"Master Su, you deserve the best and strongest sword."

Xu Han smiled.

in view.

This time, his original ten years of longevity shrank again, becoming as weak as a candle in the wind like Zhang Gui.

Su Chen understood that he had shortened his lifespan again, and wanted to emulate Zhang Gui and climb to the level of double first-rank junior grandmaster, becoming the pinnacle of the first rank.

"does it worth?"

"For Master Su, everything is worth it."

Xu Han, a man in his thirties, did not look like a murderous factory manager at all. Instead, he smiled like a child. He was delighted that he had finally helped Master Su.

This is not what Su Chen asked.

Xu Han didn’t know.

Su Chen can see a person's longevity fire.

He is asking.

Is it worth spending the rest of your life to achieve this brief peak?
Zhang Gui for revenge.

What is he for?

"That's all."

"Whatever your plan is, come find me before you make your final move. I'll give you something that may help you."

Su Chen reached for the brocade box in his arms, which contained a thousand-year-old ginseng king.

Thirty-one longevity signs.

The little turtle poked its head out of the pottery jar, looked at Su Chen's arms, looked pitiful and drooled with envy.

It smells so good! I want to eat it.

The turtle is hungry.

"I don't lack anything."

"it is good."

Xu Han wanted to refuse, but he nodded and agreed.

"Master Su."

"The whereabouts of the former Zhenbei Princess and the Empress have been found."

"The jade token is in her hand."

"Wait for me."

"Xiao Hanzi can't help you much..."

When he reached the door, Xu Han turned around and said.

"If three years later, forget it, it's nothing..."

Xu Han didn't know that Su Chen actually knew it a long time ago, that he only had three years left to live.

A few more days passed.

The young emperor finally discovered that the demon was missing, and began to send demons disguised as imperial guards to search the entire palace.

Su Chen was not in the pharmacy. He went out of the city to pull the weeds on Zhang Gui's grave these two days.

Five years have passed.

Growing taller every year.

"Strange, is there anyone like me, also killing demons?"

The imperial guards withdrew.

The more they investigated, the more the imperial guards (demons) found missing, so they dared not to continue investigating.

"what's wrong with you?"

"So hungry!"

He didn't know if it was an illusion, but when he opened the lid, Su Chen seemed to see the little turtle burping lazily. He clearly didn't feed it any long-lasting anger.

The turtle is hungry and wants to eat something.

The black jade turtle rubbed Su Chen's fingers that were inserted into it, looked pitifully at the crystal core in Su Chen's arms, and drooled all over the floor.

"biu!"

Su Chen bounced the little turtle back into the pottery jar, closed the lid, and began to hold the Xichen Sword again. He closed his eyes and rested, using himself as a whetstone to nourish the sword's intent and sharpen the sword's edge, ready for the stunning strike three years later.

Since the second-grade internal organs cannot be quickly cultivated, and the Wind and Snow Sword cannot be perfected unless it reaches the first grade, then I will practice the One Sword Three Changes Creation obtained from the Sword Fate Dharma Page.

"The cause planted in the library back then has borne the bad consequences today. Three years later, I want everything to be back on track."

The turtle was hungry, so he went hunting.

The little turtle shrank his head and ran out of the pharmacy. He sniffed around and ran towards the Tianwu Tower with drooling.

soon.

The little turtle came back satisfied.

night.

Tianwu Tower.

The atmosphere was silent.

The little emperor, the man in white robes, and the two first-rank demons all had ashen faces as they looked at the black blood all over the ground and the remains of only half a torso.

Where is the third first-grade demon?
It's on the ground.

"what happened."

"Let's not talk about the fact that three or five second-grade demons are missing."

"Now all the first-class demons have been killed! Could it be that something escaped from the immortal treasure under the Tianwu Tower? But it's impossible..."

"It's not three years from now when Daliang's national destiny collapses and the immortal treasure emerges."

Master Chu had a gloomy and uncertain expression.

The culprit, the big demon, was staying obediently in Su Chen's pottery jar.

What is a two-faced black turtle?
After being fed by Su Chen's long-lived energy, the two-faced black tortoise was reborn from death and turned into another creature.
