And at this moment, the previously calmed sea surface once again whipped up into towering waves.
Many people retreated in horror.
Jiang Mei’er, however, smiled charmingly, “Don’t be afraid, everyone, these are my people coming to pick me up!”
Indeed.
Atop the distant waves, several sea demons stood.
But these sea demons were all on guard, and they did not approach the shore.
Then Jiang Mei’er approached Mr. Xue, bowed deeply and paid her respects.
“Immortal Master, I dare not forget the grace of saving my life! In the future, I must repay this debt!”
Mr. Xue smiled noncommittally.
He did not perform these deeds expecting any reward.
But Jiang Mei’er’s expression was grave, and she stepped forward a few paces, whispering a string of archaic, abstruse words to Mr. Xue.
Mr. Xue was slightly startled, then he laughed.
It seemed he really had saved a big figure!
She even had a True Name.
The so-called True Name, is something only the nobility among demons and monsters possess, stemming from their bloodline inheritance.
The more noble the bloodline, the more distinguished the True Name!
Moreover, each member of the Demon Race has a unique True Name.
Knowing their True Name is akin to mastering their life’s gate.
Therefore, every demon regards their True Name as their most crucial secret and would never casually reveal it to anyone.
Yet now this sea demon had told Mr. Xue her True Name.
It showed she was truly grateful for Mr. Xue’s rescue.
After Jiang Mei’er transformed back into her half-human, half-fish form and entered the sea, those sea demons waiting for her all swarmed over to her.
Standing at the crest of the waves, Jiang Mei’er gave Mr. Xue one last deep bow, then submerged into the sea, disappearing from sight.
The sea was calm, and the waves were still.
It was all over.
Many people were still ruminating over everything that had just transpired.
From the beginning with Ming Yuan’s hidden malice to Mr. Xue stepping in to save everyone, and finally to Mr. Xue rescuing the trapped sea demon.
These events, akin to scenes from a movie, made many people feel as if they were still in a dream.
However, after this incident, Mr. Xue’s prestige and might had reached its peak.
None among the well-to-do families of the provincial city dared to challenge Mr. Xue’s authority anymore.
Not even in their thoughts!
On the island, Mr. Xue and his companions stayed for two more days.
Out of the three Blood Pearls, two were crafted by Mr. Xue into necklaces, which he then gave to his two daughters.
The last one, Mr. Xue kept for himself, saving it for An Yan.
While Mr. Xue was enjoying the island with his daughters, a boat slowly approached the island.
Tan Dong and Tan Xiaoyu hurriedly disembarked and made their way directly to the resort.
Upon seeing Mr. Xue, Tan Dong wore a solemn expression, and his first words were,
“Mr. Xue, there’s been trouble!”
“Trouble? What kind of trouble?”
Tan Dong took out a delicate little sword from within his clothes, which unfolded to reveal a uniquely crafted letter.
As Mr. Xue took it, he saw written on it,
The discarded Yu Family member, Yu Qing, was killed by you. Although a castaway, he was still of Yu Family blood.
Therefore, ten days from now, on the bank of Qingfeng River, I will come bearing a sword to slay Beijiang!
At the end, it was signed, Yu Yang of the Yu Family!
Mr. Xue frowned slightly.
What was this?
A challenge letter?
Tan Dong chuckled bitterly and said, “Mr. Xue, this is the famous Shi Jian Token of the Yu Family from Lingnan!”
“The Sword Challenge Token?”
“Yes! It’s said that in the last forty years, the Yu Family has issued the Sword Challenge Token seven times, invariably to renowned masters of the time, and usually because these people offended the Yu Family!”
“And among these seven instances, no one has survived under the swords of the Yu Family!” Tan Dong said with a solemn expression.
This was also why he hurried over as soon as he received the Sword Challenge Token.
The Yu Family of Lingnan!
That is considered a Holy Land in the eyes of martial artists worldwide!
Forty years ago, the Sword Immortal Yu Yuanyi of Lingnan, with a single man and a single sword, annihilated ten overseas masters, and since then, he established his unparalleled achievement.
In forty years, no one has dared to provoke the descendants of the Yu Family.
And this time, Xue An had killed a forsaken member of the Yu Family, which had provoked the issuance of the Yu Family’s Sword Challenge Token!
Tan Dong was naturally full of worries.
Tan Xiaoyu also looked at Xue An with a concerned expression.
She had now taken over her father’s martial arts school, and after these days of experience, she had matured a lot.
However, when she heard that the Yu Family had handed down a Sword Challenge Token to deal with Xue An, she set aside everything to follow Tan Dong here.
Yet, there was no trace of fear on Xue An’s face. Instead, he smiled faintly, “To vanquish Beijiang with a sword? That’s quite the boast!”
As he spoke, Xue An applied a slight force with his finger, and the Sword Challenge Token crumbled into powder and scattered with the wind.
“Mr. Xue, it’s not that I don’t trust you, but the Lingnan Yu Family is really not easy to provoke now! Especially that Sword Immortal Yu Yuanyi—ever since his earth-shattering strike forty years ago, there has been no news of him. Rumors say he has been in seclusion all this time. As for what realm he has reached by now, no one is clear!” Tan Dong said, worried.
“Indeed, Mr. Xue, a wise man does not court danger. Why don’t you go hide in country H for a while?” Tan Xiaoyu also suggested. 𝗳r𝚎e𝘄𝐞b𝚗𝗼ve𝚕.co𝗺
Xue An shook his head and smiled faintly, “Thank you, but… I really want to see just how sharp the Yu Family’s sword is!”
When he spoke, a sliver of a fierce killing intent flashed in Xue An’s eyes.
Tan Dong and Tan Xiaoyu exchanged glances and then both sighed.
In fact, they knew that these persuasions would definitely not work.
A true martial artist would never back down.
And at this moment,
The news that the Yu Family had issued another Sword Challenge Token also began to thunder throughout the land!
Martial Arts Forum.
On today’s Martial Arts Forum, gone were the usual bickering and frivolous threads.
Nearly every post was discussing the Sword Challenge Token issued by the Yu Family this time.
“The Yu Family has built up its intimidation for forty years—no one dares to face their sharpness, and I think this time it will be the same!”
“Yes! Although this Mr. Xue has recently gained some fame and even killed the Old Man Pointing to the Sky, compared to a martial arts great family like the Yu Family, he is still far short!”
“The Yu Yang who was dispatched this time is also an extremely formidable figure, who is said to have defeated a Sword Dao master in Singapore with his sword as soon as he left the mountains. It is said that he practices a murderous sword! Utterly fierce!”
“Heh, I think this Mr. Xue is more likely doomed this time!”
“If I were Xue An, I would have hit the road early and would never return to Beijiang!”
“Exactly!”
“Heh, you guys in the post above know nothing. If this Xue An leaves, then he can forget about making any progress in martial arts in the future. Fear is the biggest obstacle in the pursuit of martial arts!”
“No progress is better than being killed anyway!”
These discussions flooded the forum.
And now even in Beijiang, this news had spread everywhere.
Some were shocked, some felt pity, some reveled in the disaster, and others were filled with excitement.
Longtai Building.
Qin Yuan stood in the office, silent for a long time.
“Elder, Master Tan just called, and the persuasion was ineffective!”
It appeared that Qin Yuan had already known the outcome and nodded slightly, “Understood!”
The Hei King did not leave; he still stood by the side.
“Old Hei, do you think Mr. Xue can win this time?”
Although Qin Yuan had always been full of confidence in Xue An, and Xue An never let him down,
But this time… the opponent was the Yu Family!
The great martial arts family that has stood in the south of Huaxia for forty years!
The Hei King lowered his head and said solemnly, “I believe Mr. Xue will win!”
Qin Yuan’s eyes lit up, “Oh? Why do you say that?”
The Hei King was silent for a moment, then shook his head, “I don’t know why, but that’s just what I believe!”
Qin Yuan nodded, his eyes gradually filled with determination.
“In the past, it was always Mr. Xue who removed obstacles for my Qin Family. This time, my Qin Family will stand unconditionally behind Mr. Xue!”
