Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 962 - A True Weirdo

Chapter 962 A True Weirdo

He really looked like Pigsy. Not only did he have a similar physique to that of Pigsy, but the weapon he was using was also a Nine-Toothed Rake. If he were to shave his head and wear a black frock, Monk Zhu Wuneng would seem to have come.

“He should be a master from the Beast Clan in the north...” Ding Hao guessed.

Outside the cottage...

“Zhu Ganglie, you and I have fought more than a dozen rounds and we are evenly matched. It is meaningless to go on fighting. Why do you keep pestering me?” When Feng Ning, who had silver hair and purple eyes, saw this pigman, he at once showed a helpless look on his face and said, “Didn’t I tell you? If you want to make a breakthrough in the magical power of 36 Dipper Stars, you should find another genius of the Beast Clan, Little Ape King, and fight with him. My martial arts have no referential value for you.”

“Haha, don’t try to cheat me. Back then, my master was inspired by the Peerless Lotus Attack in a fierce battle with your master. After that, my master developed the magical power of 36 Dipper Stars to an extreme level. Before I left this time, my master had told me many times that I must find you.” Zhu Ganglie, the pigman, smiled lazily and said, “I had been looking for the successor of Sword Daimon for a whole year before I found you. Haha, this time, I won’t let you run away no matter what.”

Feng Ning suppressed the impulse to slap the fat pig hard. He spread out his hands and said, “But maybe what your master said was wrong. As you can see, we have fought more than a dozen times, each of which was extremely fierce. There is no sign of you making a breakthrough in the magical power of 36 Dipper Stars. Maybe what happened to your master back then was just a coincidence?”

“I don’t care. What my master said is certainly right. I only listen to my master. Besides, I am tired of fighting that monkey, Little Ape King. His rod techniques are just a few moves, which are not interesting at all.” As he spoke, Zhu Ganglie shook the Nine-Toothed Rake in his hand. He said, “Hey, don’t talk that much. How can a man be afraid of fighting? If you are a man, fight with me for 300 rounds!”

The Nine-Toothed Rake shook with a clattering sound. There were silver flames burning on it.

A kind of very powerful force broke out from Zhu Ganglie’s body. It was neither Qi nor Demon Aura. It was certainly not purely physical power, but a very strange aura.

In the inscription tactical deployment, Ding Hao looked a bit surprised.

He had once seen this kind of power from several other people. In the battle for the Three Great Divine Artifacts in the Towering Buddha Pagoda, Yu Miejue from the Southern Wilderness and the three giants under her command, Arnold, Schwarz, and Enegger were using a kind of power exactly the same as the magical power used by Zhu Ganglie.

It was beast power.

When Yu Miejue and the others used their beast power, they needed to present the esoteric meaning of the tattoos on their bodies to burst out the beast power. But Zhu Ganglie could activate this terrible power at will. Obviously, he was much more skilled than Yu Miejue and the others.

An idea flashed through Ding Hao’s mind. “Could it be that Yu Miejue and the others were from the Beast Clan and they were wandering the Land of Infinity?

“At the very least, they should have some sort of special connection with the Beast Clan in the north of the Land of Divine Grace.”

Just as Ding Hao was deep in thought, Feng Ning’s voice came from outside again—

“There won’t be any result even if we keep fighting like this. You’d better compete for the immortal medicine catalysts. It is said that they have incredible benefits for the warriors of any clan. If you take one immortal medicine catalyst, maybe you can immediately break through the limit of the magical power of 36 Dipper Stars and reach the peak realm. Why do you have to try so hard to fight with others?”

Obviously, Feng Ning did not want to fight with this pig.

It was because the pig’s skin was thick that he wouldn’t get hurt no matter how he was beaten.

The two of them had fought dozens of times since the first time they met. At first, they had the feeling of freshness, but now they only felt boring. As the successor of Sword Daimon, he had always taken pleasure in challenging masters from all over the world. But today, for the first time, he had felt that fighting with someone was torture.

“Well... This is also a method.” Obviously, Zhu Ganglie had not thought of this before. He was a little lazy and a little single-minded. He scratched the back of his head and thought for a moment. He smiled and said, “Yes, why didn’t I think of this before?”

As he spoke, he really turned around and walked in the direction of the Saint-alighting Mountain Range. He disappeared in an instant.

Feng Ning was stunned, and then he heaved a sigh of relief. “Gosh, this man has finally left!”

As the saying goes, the ferocious was afraid of the impetuous; the impetuous was afraid of the fool; the fool was afraid of the daredevil. The pigman Zhu Ganglie was simply impetuous. Feng Ning had fought many battles over these years, and he was never afraid of any opponent. But Zhu Ganglie was too annoying.

“The two seemed to have fought a lot when they arrived here, but they soon stopped. For an unknown reason, they left here quickly...” Feng Ning sensed the remnant aura in the small courtyard and judged the situation at that time. He soon sensed the aura left by Ding Hao.

“Terrifying aura of Sword Qi. Another master who is no less powerful than the two successors... Well?” Feng Ning’s eyes fell on the intact cottage.

He walked step by step toward the thatched cottage.

In the dark night, Feng Ning’s purple eyes flashed with strange brilliance. He had already seen that this thatched cottage was protected by a very powerful inscription tactical deployment. He felt there must be something strange inside.

In the inscription tactical deployment, Ding Hao hesitated for a moment and decided to show up in disguise to test Feng Ning first. He would see whether Feng Ning’s feelings for the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect had changed. Then, he would make a decision. But right at this moment, a stream of flowing light flashed in the distance. It arrived at the small courtyard in an instant.

It was Zhu Ganglie!

The pigman had come back.

Feng Ning did not need to turn around to know what was happening. The corners of his mouth twitched as he suppressed the urge to roar gloomily. The moment he turned around, he forced a smile on his face and said, “Why are you back?”

Zhu Ganglie said seriously, “I suddenly thought of a possibility. What if I still can’t break through the bottleneck of the magical power of 36 Dipper Stars after I get an immortal medicine catalyst and take it? At that time, I will still have to fight with you to make a breakthrough, so I can’t let you run away. Come with me. I have to watch you.”

In the inscription tactical deployment, Ding Hao felt he couldn’t bear Zhu Ganglie.

Feng Ning lowered his head and clenched his fists tightly. He took a few deep breaths, but in the end, he couldn’t suppress his impulse. He suddenly raised his head and roared like an angry lion. He cursed Zhu Ganglie loudly. “Are you fucking crazy? Are you a lunatic?”

Zhu Ganglie grinned. “How do you know it?”

Feng Ning was stunned. “What?”

Zhu Ganglie said with a smile, “When I was a child, my head was seriously injured. My master said I was suffering from the sequela. My nerve reaction is a little abnormal. There is really something wrong with me, so other fellow disciples call me little looney.”

In the inscription tactical deployment, Ding Hao nearly uttered “Pooh” when he heard Zhu Ganglie’s words.

“Ahhhhh...” Feng Ning was driven mad and was shaking as if he was suffering from an epileptic seizure. In the end, he lowered his head and heaved with a long sigh. He said helplessly, “You blow me away. To tell you the truth, if I could kill you, you would have died 10,000 times over... Let’s go. I’ll accompany you to the battlefield in the Saint-alighting Mountain Range.”

He roared in his heart. “Master, what did you do to the master of the pig-headed clan in the past? Was it a horrible deed? Why did he train such a weird disciple to take revenge on me?”

“Thank you. When I make a breakthrough in the magical power of 36 Dipper Stars, I will try my best to repay you,” said the pigman sincerely.

Feng Ning was utterly speechless.

Two streaks of light flashed and the two left the small courtyard directly.

Ding Hao watched them leave in disbelief, not knowing whether to laugh or to cry.

Zhu Ganglie was really a weirdo, but his strength was terrifying. Ding Hao’s Mind Essential intuition told him that the pigman’s strength could even be equal to that of Little Ape King. The pigman should be one of the peerless geniuses of the Beast Clan in the north. However, Ding Hao did not know what kind of story was between the pigman and Feng Ning. It seemed that although Feng Ning went crazy, he didn’t hate the pigman very much.

“I didn’t expect Feng Ning to come to the Land of Divine Grace and become the successor of Sword Daimon.” Ding Hao sighed.

This time, it was a pity that he did not reveal his identity, but Ding Hao’s concerns were reasonable. Now he had already known the identity of Feng Ning, so it would be much easier to find the latter in the future. Ding Hao decided to look for him after Xie Jieyu recovered from her injury.

“Looks like we have to leave this place. I’m afraid more creatures will follow us here.”

Ding Hao thought for a while. He knew that the aura left by the successor of the Hades Ghost Sect and that of the Sky Immortal Sect would attract the attention of other forces. Some people might come later. Although he was not afraid of them, too many followers were annoying. Moreover, it would affect Xie Jieyu’s recovery.

After thinking for a while, he went back to the thatched cottage. He summoned the Canopy Metal Carriage and put Xie Jieyu in it. Then, he started the carriage and left.

Less than 15 minutes after Ding Hao left, some people arrived.

The first group to arrive was an elite Black Armored Army led by four Semi God Realm Masters from the God’s Palace.

“It is indeed the aura of two men of the younger generation. They had a fight here, but they have left... Hmm? It seems that someone has interrupted this battle...” A white-haired old man with a hooked nose closed his eyes and sensed the aura for a while. Then, he suddenly opened his eyes and said these words.

“Chase after them. After so many years, their traces were finally found. We must follow the clues and find the traitors. Lord Mirror has been secretly making arrangements. Once we find the locations of the Hades Ghost Palace and the Sky Immortal Palace, we’ll wipe out these two groups of traitors against the God’s Palace in one stroke.”

“Let’s go!”

“Chase after them!”

Strange brilliance flashed on the body of the white-haired old man with a hooked nose, enveloping hundreds of people. The next moment, they all directly disappeared.

Later on, several more groups of people arrived one after another.

They all checked the surroundings of the small courtyard and left quickly after making a judgment.

The last person to appear in the courtyard was a strange figure covered in thick black mist. This man was extremely powerful, and his terrifying aura was like a vast ocean. He reached out his hand and pointed to the void in front of him. The void was cut open and the crack was turned into a mirror, on which figures were flashing.
