Be the Hardest Working Demon Cultivator!

Thud! With a flash of silver, the court Sword Cultivator who had just spoken lost his life on the spot.

It was a Sword Cultivator from Sharpening Sword Sect who had made a move.

The Sharpening Sword Sect might not compare with Mount Sable Sword, but it still counted among the world-renowned sword cultivation sects, especially since it had always been a staunch supporter of Mount Sable Sword. Consequently, no one dared to provoke them in the regions of Luzhou, Jiefazhou, and Chizhou.

Over time, the disciples of Sharpening Sword Sect had formed a habit: as long as there were no people from Mount Sable Sword nearby, they would act overbearingly and oppressively.

At the moment, individuals from neither Mount Sable Sword nor Heavenly Sword Mansion—the two great sword cultivation holy lands—had arrived on the scene.

This was because as long as someone in the Sword Tower gained huge benefits, it would anger the broken Immortal Sword, which would then force the tower's premature sealing, using the liveliness of thousands to suppress it.

Thus, in order to show their magnanimity, Mount Sable Sword deliberately arrived half a day late. Seeing this, Heavenly Sword Mansion, not to be outdone, also decided to show up half a day late.

However, even though a head had fallen, not a single Cultivator present showed any surprise.

Some Cultivators didn't even spare the scene a glance.

They had grown accustomed to it by now; didn't a few court Sword Cultivators die every year? Sometimes, if the Sword Dao Judge's background was ordinary, even this third-rank official from the court could be slain.

And that Sharpening Sword Sect Sword Cultivator, having killed a court Sword Cultivator, finally managed to suppress his rage.

But at that moment, with the arrival of a long rainbow-colored arc of rosy light, a streak of Bloody Sword Qi descended directly from the sky. The Sword Qi was as swift as lightning, as if it could pierce through heaven and earth in a single thought.

"Be careful!"

An elder Cultivator from Sharpening Sword Sect cried out a warning, but it was already too late.

The angry Sword Cultivator was cleaved into two.

But this angry Sword Cultivator wasn't without resistance; he drew his sword the moment he could. However, his upper-level Magic Artifact flying sword was directly repelled by the Bloody Sword Qi.

As the rainbow light settled, a figure with clear eyes and sword-like eyebrows, his face as warm as jade, appeared.

He was dressed in the official garb that signified his position as a Sword Dao Judge, making him look handsome yet imposing. The person who had arrived was none other than Tan Shuchang!

Tan Shuchang looked around and, seeing that neither Mount Sable Sword nor Heavenly Sword Mansion had arrived yet, he nodded to himself and said, "It seems I'm not late after all. My fellow Taoist friends, you've all arrived quite early!"

In fact, he was aware that the people from these two sects would arrive half a day later than the other forces.

But what could he do, having just been thrown out by that strange game?

With life being so hard, instead of blaming himself, it's better to cause more trouble for others. So, it was as if the other Cultivators had simply arrived too early!

"Tan Shuchang!"

However, there was a Sword Cultivator who refused to accept this, and upon hearing his words, immediately rebuked angrily.

This was naturally someone from the Sharpening Sword Sect.

Their disciple had just been killed; how could they possibly bear it?

"Fellow Taoist, you should know that whoever kills, will be killed in return. As an older-generation Cultivator, you ought to be aware of this principle. Why are you making such a fuss? It seems beneath your dignity!" Tan Shuchang, anticipating the other's accusation, waved his hand and gently advised him to maintain the composure expected of an elder.

"What a phrase, 'whoever kills, will be killed in return.' Officer Tan truly lives up to his reputation as the top scholar of his time," snorted a Sword Cultivator with a cold voice. He was a Sword Cultivator in his forties, with quite a handsome appearance.

"How should I address this fellow Taoist?"

"I dare not take the honor of being called a 'fellow Taoist' by Officer Tan, lest others misunderstand. I am Dan Sword Guest!" Zhao Chenyang said coldly.

Dan Sword Guest Zhao Chenyang was also a well-known figure in the world of cultivation.

But more people knew of him not because his Alchemy Dao and Sword Dao were quite extraordinary, but because his wife Nangong Yishuang was very beautiful.

"So it's Zhao Chenyang, Fellow Taoist Zhao." Tan Shuchang genuinely had heard of this name and knew his wife Nangong Yishuang was one of the rare beauties in the world, only slightly less renowned than the Fairy of Poetry from the Sacred Gate Sect.

"I've told you to not call me fellow Daoist, can't you understand human speech?" Zhao Chenyang said with an unsightly expression.

"Is that so? Then take this sword strike from me."

Tan Shuchang didn't get angry or annoyed, he simply slashed out a streak of Bloody Sword Qi with a casual flick of his hand.

Even when he slashed it out, he held no sword in his hand.

However, as the Bloody Sword Qi fell, Zhao Chenyang instantly broke out into a cold sweat, not targeted by the Calamity Witnessing Sword Qi, he had no idea about the terrifying nature of this Sword Qi.

Only when the Sword Qi targeted him did he discover in sheer terror that the thirty years of cultivation prowess he possessed couldn't be utilized in the slightest. Chapter Continue:

Still, Zhao Chenyang wasn't cleaved in two by this sword strike.

Because another streak of Sword Qi slashed over, crossing more than ten miles to forcefully halt Tan Shuchang's Calamity Witnessing Sword Qi.

Next, several figures broke through the air and arrived.

The glint of swords revealed the silhouettes of seasoned elders with intimidating aura, along with two young people, one being the seventeen or eighteen-year-old Long Zhangyuan and the other a little girl, none other than Yi Qingqing, who had been found by Long Zhangyun.

The one who made the move was one of these elders.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist, for lending a hand!" Having recovered, Zhao Chenyang promptly thanked the group of elders and, at the same time, he gave Tan Shuchang a resentful glance, as he had almost been killed.

"Tan Shuchang, long time no see, yet your attacks remain as vicious as ever!" Upon seeing Tan Shuchang, Long Zhangyuan was naturally like enemies on a narrow path, with great animosity, and he immediately slapped a big label on Tan Shuchang.

After all, Zhao Chenyang wasn't just a good friend of his master, but also the Daoist partner of Yi Qingqing's master.

Under these circumstances, he felt obliged to speak up in any case.

"What nonsense are you talking about, Long Daoist friend? As a disciple of the Sacred Gate, if I don't act ruthlessly, how can I live up to the Sacred Gate's stereotypical image in all of your hearts?" Upon hearing this, Tan Shuchang immediately waved his hand, looking like Long Daoist friend was making a fuss about nothing.

"What a disciple of the Sacred Gate!"

As Long Zhangyuan spoke those words, he took a step forward.

Clang!

With the sound of a sword cry, thunderbolts flashed between heaven and earth, followed by a dragon-like Sword Qi coalescing into a shadow long sword in Long Zhangyuan's hand.

This was precisely his top-quality spirit-level flying sword Magic Artifact.

After waking from a dream, Long Zhangyuan not only assimilated the benefits he received at Mount Sword Disciple, he suddenly amassed nearly fifty years of cultivation prowess, and his Sword Dao realm had also reached the level of Integration of Man and Sword.

"Do you dare to take a sword strike from me?"

"If an old friend challenges me and I don't accept, it would appear that I'm too unamiable. However, since it's the time of the Sword Dao Sacred Scripture conclave, how about this, Long Daoist friend, you take this sword strike from me!" With these words, Tan Shuchang once again slashed out a streak of Bloody Sword Qi.

"Hmph! You underestimate me!" Seeing it was just a streak of Sword Qi, Long Zhangyuan instantly felt annoyed, thinking that Tan Shuchang was looking down on him, and he slashed out with his sword in response.

The Sword Qi collided with the top-quality flying sword, and naturally, the Sword Qi was overpowered, but the murderous rule within the Sword Qi was already triggered.

However, Long Zhangyuan didn't die.

Because another Jade Pendant on his body shattered.

Witnessing this scene, Tan Shuchang wasn't surprised; he had anticipated this when he struck out, knowing full well the wealth of Mount Sword Disciple. But although Long Zhangyuan didn't die, he still ended up on the ground, continuously vomiting blood from the backlash of the murderous rule.

"Long Daoist friend, I've always been curious about why you think your opponent would be me," Tan Shuchang said in an ethereal tone. Then, feeling the several aura locks targeting him, he took a step forward.

Instantly, those several aura locks shattered.

The last time, faced with these aura locks, all he could do was to hold back. But this time, they all met their death!

Nine streaks of Bloody Sword Qi appeared behind him and slashed out together!
