Chapter 190: Misunderstanding! This is a Misunderstanding!

Chapter 190: Misunderstanding! This is a Misunderstanding!

Being a veteran divine-tier martial artist, how sharp was Three Blades Lin’s senses?

For a person like him, a single look that held enmity from someone else would alert him even if he was sound asleep, let alone a glimpsing from spirit vision.

He instantly woke up, tossed around, and rose to his feet. Combat blade in hand and his aura bursting, the house around him exploded with a rumble just as he dashed toward Jiang He’s house, his powerful spirit extending at the same time.

It was late at night and upon sensing the divine-tier elite’s spirit vision, only one possibility crossed Three Blades Lin’s mind—an elite of the Sky Demon Cult was attacking and trying to kill Jiang He!

That was why his first reaction was to rush toward Jiang He’s, hoping to save him!

And yet, Jiang He saw the same sight with a different light.

A divine-tier elite suddenly popping up in the middle of the night with burning killing intent, even carrying a combat blade and rushing toward his house... there was no other possibility other than a Sky Demon Cultist coming to kill him!

“This is too much!”

“This is too much!”

Jiang He’s eyes went red.

What do the vermin of the Sky Demon Cult want?

Do they take him for a softie, trying to get at him every other day?

The bodies of their Sentinel of the Right, Senior Elder, Elders, and Holy Child had yet to cool, and now they sent an even stronger elite already?

“Die!”

Growling quietly, Jiang He dashed out and landed in his courtyard with a single tap of his foot on the floor.

Boom!

Nine Yang True Qi and Dragon-Elephant Prajna bursting while his Indestructible Diamond remained charged, Jiang He’s was displaying all his martial art special-effects. A sun shone behind his back while the silhouette of a dragon and elephants circled around it, their roar and trumpeting sonorous.

His Dark Golden Combat Suit also materialized, bathing him in golden radiance alongside golden shine from Indestructible Diamond.

There were also winks of starlight amidst the golden radiance, thanks to his Nine Stars Heavenly Body Formula being charged.

After all...

The one who had come to assassinate him was a divine-tier elite and Jiang He must not be careless. Using an immortal physique technique without revealing his trump card of immortal arts was still acceptable.

And in the instant that Jiang He darted forward, he had already grabbed a chili and stuffed it inside his mouth.

His aura had another burst of overflow at that.

Though he was merely rank-eight pinnacle in martial arts, his aura now did not lose out to Three Blades Lin’s as the latter hurried to the scene!

“Jiang He!”

Three Blades Lin yelled out loud, intending to wake Jiang He!

He had sensed the raging aura as well...

Still, it was weird...

That aura’s tier was not that powerful, but why was it so fierce?

Even so, he could not care to think further. In his perspective, the Sky Demon Cult’s elite must have found him, and threw all caution into the wind to prioritize killing Jiang He first.

“So he really is after me!”

On the other hand, Jiang He became even more furious at the sound of that yelling.

He darted out from his yard, stepping over thin air and stopping atop a house five hundred meters away from his. A figure boiling with killing intent was approaching rapidly in his vision.

With a crack of the Ninefold Thunderblade’s Third Fold buffed by thunder will, Jiang He slashed out, swinging down a thirty-meter thunder slash down from above.

“Fine blade technique!”

Having the nickname ‘Blade King’, how sharp was Three Blades Lin’s eyes?

Even if he knew that an enemy was right in front of him, he could not help exclaiming.

Slashing out with his combat blade in his hand, he crushed the thunder slash while he continued dashing toward Jiang He on top of the roof.

On the other hand, Jiang He did not stop after releasing one slash. Brandishing his blade, he continued his attack and instantly unleashed a flurry of nine slashes.

???

Even so, once Three Blades Lin reached him, he could not help exclaiming, “What the hell!”

He was just twenty meters away from Jiang He, and naturally had a perfectly clear view of Jiang He’s face...

Jiang He?

Jiang He?

That was actually Jiang He?

In that instant, Three Blades Lin remembered what Wang Hou told him when he sent him to Lingzhou City to protect Jiang He...

“The kid is absolutely demonic. He’s merely rank-eight pinnacle but he could fight with the power on the cusp of divine-tier—his future is inestimably bright, so nothing must happen to him!”

The cusp, my foot!

How far does that cusp even go?

The kid barely slashed out more than a handful of times, but wasn’t each swing comparable to an average divine-tier intermediate-pinnacle?

All those thoughts crossed Three Blades Lin’s mind in a split second.

Shifting to a defensive stance, Three Blades Lin used his blade radiance to shield his body, taking the brunt of Jiang He’s nine slashes.

But not being adept at defense in the first place, he was sent flying backward by the nine slashes. As the terrible shockwave resulting from their Blade Qi unfurled, every building several hundred meters around them crumbled.

Even as he was sent flying, Three Blades Lin shouted, “Stop, Jiang He! I’m—”

“Die!”

On the other end, Jiang He kept charging toward Three Blades Lin with a raging roar.

His thunder slash was extremely powerful, even though he felt a feebleness inside...

Was he so weak without using immortal arts?

A random elite from the Sky Demon Cult could not be killed even after several slashes, even when he was using his cultivation to the max?

“Nonetheless, he gives me the feeling that he’s not too strong to handle. If I cast my immortal cultivation and dashed forward with White Foal Crosses the Rift, he would have a hard time blocking...”

A puzzling idea occurred to Jiang He then.

Wasn’t that person here to kill him?

He was quite powerful, so why was he just defending instead of attack?

Nonetheless, he continued to press his attack with thirty-meters thunder slashes in every strike.

In fact, right now...

Three Blades Lin was about to cry.

What the hell was this monster?

Rank-eight pinnacle bursting with divine-tier intermediate combat ability was already unthinkable... but most importantly, every strike was continuous and equally powerful, leaving Three Blades Lin unable to breathe as he guarded against slash after slash.

Clenching his teeth.

Three Blades Lin changed his blade stance, cutting out to shatter Jiang He’s thunder slash and knocking him backward.

Boooom!

Another house crumbled.

Finally having a chance to breathe, Three Blades Lin leaped up high into the skies and exclaimed loudly, “Stop, Jiang He! I’m Three Blades Lin, and I mean no harm!”

Boom!

Jiang He’s True Qi rumbled within the debris, knocking away the bricks and tiles that were covering him. Holding his Dragon-Slaying Saber, he could not help frowning as he looked up at the sky...

The man was at least sixty meters high.

His slashes would never reach him!

Sneering, Jiang He said, “I don’t care if you’re Three Blades or Five... trying to kill me? I’ll cut you down, believe it!”

“...”

Three Blades Lin was rather speechless.

The kid had never heard of him?

Was his fame as the Black King that weak in the Hua Nation’s martial world?

Chuckling bitterly, Three Blades Lin said, “It really is a misunderstanding, Jiang He. After Minister Wang had learned that you’ve slain a large number of the Sky Demon Cult’s elites, he was worried that they would send a divine-tier elite after you. That is why I’m assigned here to protect you.”

“Oh?”

Jiang He withdrew much of his killing intent at that.

He was seventy percent sure that it really was a misunderstanding now, but he must not let his guard down as long as he wasn’t a hundred percent sure. Hence, he asked, “How could you prove Minister Wang sent you, and not the Sky Demon Cult?”

“Just now...”

“You were yelling my name as you came charging toward my house, with blazing killing intent.”

Were you not trying to kill me?”

“I sensed a spirit’s glimpsing, and thought that a divine-tier elite was trying to kill you... eh?”

Three Blades Lin couldn’t help doing a double-take at his own words and gaped at Jiang He, exclaiming in shock, “Your spirit has ascended?”

On the other hand, Jiang He was not fully convinced, and took out his phone to call Duan Tianhe right in front of Three Blades Lin.

Duan Tianhe answered his call immediately, and it seems that he was utterly anxious, even asking loudly, “Jiang He, what actually happened? Did a divine-tier elite attack you?”

“Hide yourself right now—I sensed a burst of aura from a divine-tier elite, but Minister Wang had arranged for someone to protect you in secret...”

At the moment, Duan Tianhe, Cheng Dongfeng, and Ji Dongxu were huddled together.

There was no helping it.

They barely had a wink of sleep when they were jolted awake by the astonishing aura.

It could be felt with perfect clarity even from a dozen kilometers away.

Their first thought was that divine-tier elites were clashing, and it was not hard to reach the assumption that the Sky Demon Cult sent a divine-tier elite after Jiang He at that, only to be foiled by the elite Minister Wang sent.

“Huh?”

Jiang He chuckled over at the other end of the call and said, “Got it, Chief Duan... don’t worry, the elite Minister Wang sent is very powerful and he wasn’t hurt.”

Hanging up and putting away his Dragon-Slaying Saber, Jiang He chuckled, “Three Blades Lin, was it? Haha... Brother Lin, why don’t you greet me when you’re already here? Thank goodness I was holding back, or wouldn’t it be a huge loss if I really hurt you?”

“...”

Hoho...

‘Holding back?

‘Hurt me?

‘You are really delusional, kid... a high and mighty divine-tier pinnacle elite like me would be hurt by your hands?

‘Is my title ‘Blade King’ just for show?

‘I am tried and true, and merely refrained from using my killing stroke because I recognized you.’

Nonetheless, Three Blades Lin descended from above.

Despite his many complaints, he could barely conceal the surprise on his face. Studying Jiang He from head to toe, he exclaimed in shock, “Unbelievable... Truly unbelievable. How did you cultivate such frightening combat ability when you’re not even rank-nine?”

“What’s more... your spirit had ascended past the limit of rank-eight pinnacle, reaching divine-tier levels... could this be a prodigious gift of legends?”

“No!”

Jiang He retorted seriously. “What does this have to do with prodigious gifts?

He knows what his talent was like.

His multiple attempts at cultivation had failed and he believed that his diligent farming was inextricably linked to how rapidly he improved. Over the last month, there was no telling how much he sweated in his diligent farming, and so he promptly said, “The reason I’ve gained some extent of accomplishment is mostly because I sweated more than others did.”

Three Blades Lin nodded in return.

For Jiang He to gain such power and accomplishment at such a young age, he would have to train constantly and put in more than double the efforts compared to most people, no matter how much of a monster or what providence he gained.

Three Blades Lin could not help sighing at that thought. “Truly, young and dangerous!”

And yet, he suddenly noticed that Jiang He’s condition was not quite normal, and so frowned as he asked, “What happened to you, Jiang He?”

“It’s fine.”

Right now, Jiang He was feeling extremely uncomfortable.

Under the impression that another Sky Demon Cult elite was after his life, he had eaten a pepper before he fought.

And now...

The side effect of the pepper had kicked in.

Although Three Blades appeared rough at first, he was now very attractive.

As such, Jiang He quickly said, “Brother Lin, I think I’m quite safe here alone, and I don’t need protection... anyway, I’m going back since I have something to do!”

Whoosh!

Jiang He promptly turned and darted away, his entire figure turning into a phantom as the casted Blind Princess’s Eight Practices.

“Such an elegant physical art!”

Three Blades Lin couldn’t help exclaiming in surprise, before sighing. “It seems that Jiang He’s burst of power did not come without a cost... his state just now must be the recoil from using a certain mysterious art... but he’s right. With his power now, who else could him unless the Saint of the Sky Demon Cult personally came?”

Taking up to the skies and glancing in the direction of Lingzhou City, Three Blades Lin’s body moved once before disappearing into the night.

***

Meanwhile, Jiang He had already returned home.

He dashed up to the third-floor pool in a single breath, ready to bathe and ‘lower his body heat’.

Nonetheless, footsteps could be heard from the outside just as he jumped into the pool...

Sora had arrived.

She had been jolted awake by the commotion from the battle before, and when she found that Jiang He ran here to bathe, she quickly came to help give him a massage.

As her soft, dainty hands stroked Jiang He’s shoulders, the pepper’s side effect inflamed.

Splash.

Sora gasped in surprise as she dropped into the pool...

Jiang He had dragged her inside.

In seconds, she exclaimed in coquettish shyness, “Goshuujin-sama... ah...”

***

After a long time.

Back at Jiang He’s bedroom.

Jiang He breathed a long sigh even as he lay on his huge, comfortable bed, before glancing at the remote for the bed’s vibration function...

He seemed to understand why the bed moved now.

Thud!

Jiang He flung the remote onto the edge of the bed, speechless.

Was the mansion he had planted that arrogant?

‘It’s not like I’ve got a bad hip... so why give me this gimmick at all?’
