Swordsman of the World

Chapter 8
In the armory workshop, the boss took out a rusty dagger from the back compartment, with tiny cuts on it.

The boss stroked the sword and said, "This is a damaged sword, but it can still resonate with the sword soul, which proves that it is a magic weapon. It was sold in my grandfather's generation, but no one cares about it."

"Hey, it's not impossible to send you off." The boss said with a strange smile: "You just need to catch a young leopard wolf in the demon forest for me."

"Young leopard?" Yang Dong wondered why the boss made such a request.

The boss then explained: "Hehe, it's my grandson's birthday present, and juvenile leopards are easy to domesticate."

"Yes, yes, but if I want to enter the demon forest, I need a weapon. I will take this sword first." Yang Dong also put forward his own conditions.

"How do I know you're not lying to me?" The boss stared at him distrustfully.

Yang Dong didn't talk nonsense, grabbed the dilapidated sword, and with a thought, the sword soul moved and merged with the sword body.

Immediately struck him with a peculiarly genial sympathy.

Yang Dong frowned slightly, feeling that the sword was a bit weird, as if it had something to do with the Star Sword Qi he cultivated.

However, the power he erupted after holding the sword showed his initial strength as a swordsman.

He said calmly: "Boss, if you can trust me, I will bring you a leopard back tomorrow. If you can't trust me, I can go to the city lord's mansion with you in advance to make a death certificate."

The boss also nodded slightly, and said: "You don't need to go to the city lord's mansion. The old man thinks you are very pleasing to the eye, so I have the right to lend you a night. If you break your promise, the old man has many disciples, and they will find you."

This is the difference between having a sword soul and not having a sword soul. Seeing that Yang Dong is a sword repairman, the boss's attitude towards him has also changed.

Yang Dong thanked the boss, happily left with the sword.

Before leaving, the boss smiled lightly and said, "A broken sword will make you happy."

In fact, he didn't know something. When Yang Dong held the sword, he really felt very special and kind. He couldn't understand what it was for the time being, but after all, he was the key training object of Yangjiabao.

There is still knowledge in this area.

If a magic weapon and the sword soul of a sword cultivator are perfectly fused, and the resonant soul power is strong, then it is obvious that the sword and the sword soul have the same quality in a certain sense.

That's the best combination.

For example, the Second Elder of Yangjiabao, his flame sword soul and the red flame sword made of red flame spar, the two complement each other, allowing him to exert [-]% of his strength.

Obviously, this dilapidated sword is highly compatible with his Void Sword Soul.

The only thing that makes Yang Dong depressed is his own sword soul. The nihilistic sword soul is an extremely rare sword soul, and one in a million people may not be able to produce one.

He hadn't even seen it in the Yang family's family records.

So he didn't know anything about his sword soul, the only thing he knew was that this broken sword was suitable for him.Otherwise, he would not agree to the boss.

It seems that he has suffered a loss, but in fact he can be said to have picked up a treasure.

Yang Dong was in high spirits, and was planning to go to the Demon Forest, but he passed by the brothel and ran into a few acquaintances.

"Yang Le!" Yang Dong immediately showed a ferocious expression when he saw the leader, the enemy was extremely jealous when they met.

Yang Le was smiling, and when he saw Yang Dong, he was also taken aback. There were several swordsmen from the Yangjiabao beside him, all of whom were his relatives.

Yang Le raised the corner of his mouth suddenly, revealing a wicked smile.

He tilted his neck, and said, "Yang Dong, you trash came to Huaishui City to make a living, so I can see you everywhere, annoying."

"Cousin, is this waste in your eyes? Cousin will teach him a lesson for you." A tall and thin man on the side immediately walked up to please Yang Le.

Yang Dong frowned, but saw three early swordsman men from Yangjiabao surrounding him.

In the case of one-on-three, although Yang Dong was not afraid, he subconsciously pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword.

He had had enough of being bullied in Yangjiabao, but here, he would never do it!

"Cousins, wait a minute, although he is no longer from Yangjiabao, but we are from the same clan after all." Yang Le stepped out of the crowd and walked in front of Yang Dong.

Yang Dong remained calm as always, without any panic expression, which made Yang Le very upset.

It stands to reason that this waste who was born without a sword soul should be afraid of himself.

Why can he still remain calm?
Yang Dong touched his back and took out a sword. It was ice blue and exuded a cold air. It turned out to be a magic weapon. Although it was a low-grade magic weapon, it was still enviable.

"Did you see it? It was given to me by my master, it's called the Ice Blue Sword." Yang Le showed off with the sword in front of him.

Yang Dong said disdainfully: "Show off with what others gave you, kid?"

Yang Le was not angry but happy, and said: "This afternoon, with the help of my master, I have successfully awakened the sword soul, and it still has the frost attribute attached to the sword soul, hehe hahaha... For you who have no future, it must be very difficult. Be envious."

Yang Le's eyes widened, he wanted to see, to see Yang Dong's envious and jealous expression, the more Yang Dong suffered, the more excited he was, he needed the pleasure of crushing a genius and stepping under his feet.

But Yang Dong just shrugged indifferently, and said with a smile: "Congratulations."

Forehead?Yang Le's expression froze suddenly, is this guy out of his mind?Congratulate yourself?It doesn't make sense, is there something wrong?
Suddenly, Yang Dong pushed him away, and said coldly: "Since you are going to celebrate in the brothel, then don't waste my time, but Yang Xue knows that you are looking for sex in the brothel, I'm afraid she will be angry."

Suddenly being pushed away, Yang Le realized that Yang Dong's strength was so great, and that trash actually pushed him away?

Swish, the ice-blue sword instantly poured the power of his sword soul, and the sword energy spread instantly, and the blue bricks under his feet were all frosted.

Yang Le was very angry, why could Yang Dong be so calm and ignore himself?
I should be aloof and worshiped by everyone, including Yang Dong, a waste without a sword soul.

Pointing at Yang Dong with his sword, he shouted: "You are looking for death, if you dare to bump into me, I will take off your arm, and none of you will interfere."

Yang Dong couldn't bear it anymore, grinning grinningly, will you take off my arm if you touch you?Who do you think you are, he holds the rusty sword hilt in his hand, ready to fight at any time.

Just now he felt that the power of Yang Le's sword soul is not strong, he just awakened the sword soul today, he probably hasn't started to practice yet, the sword soul is only in the original chaotic state, unlike him, it has already been refined into a sword shape.

Even if he has a low-grade magic weapon, Yang Dong is still not afraid.

But at this time, a group of Huaishui City patrol soldiers walked by, and immediately shouted: "Get out of the way, our deacon is looking for Miss Chunxiang, a group of untouchables, get out of the way."

The deacon, No.1 under the lord of Huaishui City, the strength of the sword master in the middle stage, such a person can't be easily provoked.

Yang Le put away his sword, and coldly snorted at Yang Dong: "You're lucky today, sir, I'm in high spirits, I'll let you go. Hmph, leave Huaishui City as soon as possible, next time I meet you again, I'll cripple your hands and feet .”

Yang Dong grinned disdainfully, turned around and left.

"What are you laughing at?" Yang Le was furious, but Yang Dong ignored him, and he immediately smiled evilly: "By the way, Yang Dong, I will marry Xiaoxue after the New Year Festival, ha ha, I am very generous, I invite you to come back to Yangjiabao to attend my wedding with Xiaoxue."

Yang Dong shuddered, and his steps stopped abruptly.

That Yang Xue, childhood sweetheart for 15 years, a childhood sweetheart, he really loved Yang Xue very much.

But now he has learned to forget, he knows that the purpose of Yang Le's words is to stimulate himself.But he clearly miscalculated.

Yang Dong asked back: "New Year Festival? Do you think you can do it with the newly awakened sword soul?"

"Hmph, of course, I will win the New Year's Festival No. 1, you just watch it for me." Yang Le said proudly.

Yang Dong raised his head and said, "Okay, I will watch."

The annual sacrifice, which is the custom of the Qin and Ming dynasties, is called the Spring Festival on the first day of the lunar calendar every year.

The New Year Festival is jointly held by Huaishui City, Tangjiabao, and Yangjiabao. It is a memorial ceremony for the competition of the younger generation. The winner will be rewarded by the three parties.

On that day, the three major powers around Huaishui City will bring out many valuable treasures, such as precious herbs, special concentrates for refining swords, or generous errands, which will be used as rewards for winning the annual festival.

It is also a good opportunity for every young talent to stand out in the three-acre land of Huaishui.

But the festival is only one month away.

The younger generation, of course, is less than [-] years old, and must awaken the sword soul to participate.

The previous year's champion was a 29-year-old elder brother from Yangjiabao, who just happened to become a sword master and completely defeated his peers.And this year, it seems that no one who meets the requirements has broken through as a sword master.

In other words, most of them belonged to swordsmen, and the strongest ones were swordsmen at their peak.

Yang Dong now possesses dual sword souls. In terms of strength, he is not afraid of opponents of the same realm. Even swordsmen can fight in the middle stage.

If he can break through the mid-stage swordsman within a month, then the opponents in the late-stage swordsman may also be able to fight.

Yang Dong touched his lips and sighed: "It turns out that winter is coming."

While thinking, he ran towards the demon forest.

Because Yang Dong was only active on the outskirts of the demon forest, he could easily pick a lot of sky crystal grass, and at the same time, fire-breathing monsters like leopards and wolves could no longer do anything to him.

With the sword energy in his hand, the sprayed flames will be staggered on both sides. At the same time, the sword energy can easily disembowel the leopard wolf.

At the same time, he also successfully caught a juvenile leopard and brought it back to the boss of the armory workshop, so that he officially owned the rusty dagger.

Yang Dong named it Star Sword.

He firmly believed that his Star Sword would not be inferior to Yang Le's Ice Blue Sword, um, although, it looked a bit broken.

For the next seven days, Yang Dong wandered around the demon forest, picking some low-level medicinal materials such as Sky Crystal Grass, Hemostatic Grass, and Ginseng. First, his sister needed them, and second, he could sell them for money.

The purchase price of a stalk of Sky Crystal Grass and Hemostatic Herb is one tael, and the selling price is five taels. Thinking about it, I feel that the pharmacy is making too much money.

However, he had no intention of destroying the price of herbal medicines in Huaishui City. Seven consecutive days of frenzied herb picking finally allowed him to save more than 100 taels of silver, as well as enough Sky Crystal Grass for Song Muqing to use for two months.

Yang Dong finally decided to prepare for the New Year Festival.
