Chapter 10: Huh?! Wrong Person?
"Yesterday at 11 PM, Sword Cultivators Lin and Feng were given a ten-day detention and fined two thousand spirit coins for violating traffic regulations by speeding on their swords."
"We understand that Cultivators are eager to return home and check on the safety of their loved ones, but please abide by traffic regulations."
The giant Xuan-light mirror hanging on the building was broadcasting the news.
Just by hearing it, they were Sword Cultivators from the Sword Sect. On matters like this, the Sword Sect was always quite strict with its own Cultivators.
Zhang Yunlu, wearing a blue and white school uniform, was biting into a baked flatbread while holding a cup of soy milk in her other hand. Hearing the news, she couldn't help but mutter to herself.
She had been tormented by that scene all last night and had planned to ask her older brother to help her take leave, not knowing when she had fallen asleep.
Unexpectedly, after waking up from a nap, she felt much better.
Her head wasn't dizzy anymore, her legs weren't sore, and even the scene that had been repeating in her mind had stopped.
Since she had recovered, she naturally wouldn't stay at home wasting time, so she insisted on coming to school despite her older brother's attempts to stop her.
The college entrance exam was approaching, so she couldn't waste time.
As she walked, she thought of Xu Xing, whom she had met yesterday.
Xu Xing... Which big shot from the Sword Sect was this?
A great Cultivator who had come out of seclusion, and she had just happened to meet him. She had only seen such things in novels and movies, but she hadn't expected that she would actually encounter such a day.
When protagonists in novels and movies met big shots of this level, even if they didn't instantly ascend to heaven, they would at least get treasures that the big shot didn't need.
As a result, not only was she led on with a bunch of words, but she was also forcibly harassed by those two scenes at night, tormented to death.
Sigh~
It was indeed all lies; how could it be so easy to get benefits?
It was said that the great Cultivators of ancient times seemed to emphasize 'The Law of Karma' (predestined affinity). Didn't that Senior say yesterday that if they had a chance to meet again, he would give her a nice little gift?
But great Cultivators came and went without a trace, and Xuanjian City was so big, how could it be so easy to meet him?
Kicking a small stone by the roadside, she quickened her pace.
The small stone rolled forward and finally stopped at the feet of a young man who looked a bit simple and honest. He was frowning, seemingly worried about something.
"Sigh~"
Two Senior Brothers were detained for speeding on their swords, and Xiao Ning Zhenren himself had apprehended them. Furthermore, a powerful Senior from the Supreme Dao Sect was present. There was no way they would be released in these ten days.
"Let's just do the Sect mission first, as Senior Brother said."
Although he wasn't sure what other plans Senior Brother Lin had in private, on the surface, the three of them had accepted a Sect mission.
Time was limited, and the two Senior Brothers wouldn't be able to get out anytime soon. If the mission wasn't completed, contribution points would be deducted.
However, this mission required at least three people, so he still needed to find two more Sword Cultivators at the Nascent Soul Stage or above.
He touched the golden jade token at his waist. This golden jade token was not the kind worn by Sword Sect Disciples, but the symbol of the Lin Qiuxian Family.
The Lin Family had considerable influence in the Sword Sect, so most Sword Cultivators from the Sword Sect would give them Face.
"Hope this token Senior Brother gave me is useful."
Otherwise, why would other Cultivators help you for no reason?
"Let's go to the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall here first and see."
Most of the Nascent Soul Sword Cultivators contacted through the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall were from the main Sect. For Sect missions, it was naturally better to act together with people from the main Sect.
Just as he was thinking, Zhang Yunlu passed by him. His Sword Intent trembled slightly, seemingly touched by something.
Hmm?!
A sharp light flashed in his eyes. He instantly saw through Zhang Yunlu's cultivation. Qi Training Stage eight, a very ordinary Realm, yet it could touch his Sword Intent?!
What was the background of this young girl?
A trace of curiosity arose in his heart. Without much hesitation, he followed her directly.
…………
Xuanjian City Third Middle School. Many students walked into the school together at the entrance.
Zhang Yunlu also met a few classmates she was quite close to. The group walked and chatted, looking joyful and harmonious.
In a secluded corner not far away, the young Sword Sect Cultivator looked at Zhang Yunlu's back, his brows tightly furrowed.
As a Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator, Zhang Yunlu naturally couldn't discover him.
But after following and observing the whole way, he couldn't figure out what was wrong.
'Forget it, I'll go to the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall to do the proper business first. I'll come back to observe after completing the mission.'
Inside the school, there was a director at the Yuanying Stage and a Principal at the Celestial Transformation Stage. If he followed her inside, he might be discovered, so he could only stop here for now.
He turned and left, originally intending to go directly to the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall. But when he passed a hidden alleyway, he flashed and turned into it.
There was no one in the alleyway, and it was very quiet. A black cat leaped onto the wall and meowed at him.
Meow~
It then jumped off the wall and disappeared.
"Friend, there's no one here, you can come out now."
The voice echoed in the alleyway, but there was no response.
Not long after coming out from near the school, he realized someone was following him.
Hah!
In broad daylight, someone dared to follow a Sword Cultivator from the Sword Sect? Did they really think his sword wasn't sharp?
Suddenly, his back felt numb, and the hairs on his body stood on end.
Without the slightest hesitation, he turned around and slashed.
Swish!
A bright crescent-shaped purple sword light slashed out diagonally. The light illuminated a masked person who had appeared at some point, wearing ordinary sportswear and a mask, with undisguised killing intent in his eyes.
Crack!
The purple sword light was easily crushed. His movements were as swift as lightning, reaching him in an instant, grabbing his neck, and pinning him against the wall, giving him no chance to unleash another sword strike.
Violent and scorching spiritual power surged into his body. A force so strong it was unshakable tightly held his meridians, sealing his entire spiritual power.
A Body Cultivator!
His cultivation was even higher than his own!
Why would a Body Cultivator of this level be detected by him?
F*ck!
He was baited!
This person had deliberately let him detect him.
Under the pressure of the powerful aura, he only felt the scene before his eyes starting to blur. Talismans were posted on the surrounding walls, and a semicircular area formed by faint light sealed off all movement here.
He didn't want to make a big fuss!
No wonder he used such thunderous methods right from the start.
"You damn scum, can't you stay honest for a while?!"
The voice was neutral, as if the voices of many people were mixed together, making it hard to distinguish, but one could still feel the suppressed anger within it.
"I f*cking..."
Bang!
A fist had already landed on his Face, directly making him dizzy and his vision go black in waves.
"I didn't...!"
Bang!
"Listen to me...!"
Bang bang!
A flurry of punches directly beat him until he couldn't even speak.
Where the hell did I offend you?!
Clink!
The golden jade token fell to the ground with a crisp sound, and the continuous rain of fists finally stopped.
The masked person picked up the jade token and seemed to be stunned for a moment.
"You actually dare to lay hands on someone from the Lin Family?"
The young man's consciousness was already a bit blurry, but upon hearing this, he still roared out.
"That's my Senior Brother's!" His voice was a bit slurred.
"..." After a moment of silence, he said, "Are you from the Sword Sect?"
"Nonsense! Hiss~"
Perhaps he had pulled on a wound, half a broken tooth fell out, and he gasped in pain.
Suppressing the grievance and anger in his heart, he mobilized a trace of spiritual power to alleviate the pain.
"I am Li Fengping from the Sword Sect. Who are you, and why are you hitting me for no reason?"
"Then why did you run into the alley?"
I f*cking wanted to counter-kill you, who knew your Realm was still above mine.
"You've been following me, so of course I had to lure you out."
"...Sorry, I got the wrong person."
Got the wrong person?!
My god...!
Before he could curse out loud, a pill was forcibly stuffed into his mouth.
The pill quickly took effect. A slight tingling sensation came from the wounds on his Face. By the time his vision cleared up a bit, the masked person and the Talismans posted around had all disappeared.
Meow~
The black cat jumped down from his head and landed in front of him. Through the amber cat eyes, he saw his own swollen head.
After circling him once, the black cat turned its head and left.
Looking at the empty alley, Li Fengping could no longer suppress the grievance in his heart at this moment.
Who the f*ck did I provoke?!
