There were two figures sitting in the first-class cabin of the plane, one old and one young.
The middle-aged man's eyes revealed a bit of smugness as he hummed a popular Korean ditty.
The young man quietly looked at the starry sky outside the window.
"Jiansheng, you did a great job this time. The leader of the Nine Provinces is Jing Province, and you have already conquered all the sword geniuses in Jing Province. This is a good start.
If you can sweep through the remaining eight states, your reputation will surely be soaring and resounding throughout the world! By then, the prestige of our Hanzhou in the world will rise to a brand new level!"
The young man had an indifferent expression, without any sign of emotion.
"Chief Jin, you're overthinking. The vast Nine Provinces are home to many talented people. How can we underestimate the five thousand years of civilization and the inheritance of the torch? Take the people in Jingzhou for example. They all learned from books and studied on their own without anyone to teach them.
But his swordsmanship skills already make me feel threatened.
If they had the same guidance as me, we would have already knelt down in Jingzhou."
A hint of displeasure flashed across Section Chief Jin's face.
"Jiansheng, you overestimate Jiuzhou.
I admit that Jiuzhou does have a 5,000-year-old civilization and many talented people. But don't forget that in the past two hundred years, Jiuzhou has been plotted against by the rest of the world and has suffered many large-scale attacks from star beasts. Nowadays, many martial arts have been lost and no longer popular.
Although Jiuzhou has been actively recovering its strength in recent decades, how can the trauma of two hundred years be repaired overnight?
Kendo competition is about skills and sword intentions, not cultivation! You learned from my Great Korean Sword Saint Liu Chengxun, and your sword skills have already been cultivated to perfection.
It will definitely enhance our country’s prestige!
The next stop is Jianghai City in Zhongzhou. This is the first stop in Zhongzhou. You should rest well and concentrate your mind. After three days, you will make the whole Zhongzhou tremble with fear!"
Park Jiansheng slowly closed his eyes.
To enhance national prestige? Hanzhou is a tiny place, but its cultural and historical heritage all comes from Kyushu.
Now it has fallen under the control of the United States. How can the country still have power?
He has no interest in the so-called national prestige.
He just wanted to find a strong man! A real swordsman, to improve his swordsmanship!
One night passes in a flash.
Soon it was time to go to work the next day.
"Two tofu buns, two red bean paste buns, one beef bun, and a cup of soy milk, a total of eight yuan, why did you give ten yuan?"
"You took an extra beef bun yesterday."
"The young man is really honest. I wouldn't have known it if you hadn't told me."
Ye Xiao smiled and didn't feel comfortable responding.
Because that beef bun was stolen by Huan Liuli.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard a loud bang in his ears, followed by a scream.
"There was a car accident and someone died!"
The lady at the breakfast shop frowned, and while packing up the buns, she muttered unhappily, "Here we go again! Something happens every day, it's really weird."
Ye Xiao asked puzzledly: "Do car accidents often happen here?"
"Isn't it? It's weird that they say it at least twice a week. But the exorcist came, but he couldn't find anything. He used stone lions today and peach wood stakes tomorrow to suppress the demons, but there was no effect. On the contrary, more and more people died.
In the past, only ordinary people died, but in the past two years, even warriors with spirits have begun to die."
Ye Xiao glanced at the roundabout not far away and raised his eyebrows slightly.
The Grandmaster cannot see spirits, but he has cultivated his spiritual power, so he can see spirits.
In that place, there was clearly an evil ghost, sitting on the golden bronze bull in the middle of the flower bed, wearing clothes from the past century, gnawing on the souls of those who had just died in a car accident.
This evil ghost must have been practicing for quite some time. Not only is his mental strength strong, but the spiritual energy gathered around him is also very powerful.
But because he is a spiritual body, without the cultivation of spiritual power, even the innate master may not be his opponent.
He walked over slowly, carrying buns and soy milk.
Huan Liuli, who was standing by, holding the beef bun that Ye Xiao had just bought, couldn't help but say:
"Master, why do you still want to give her money? She didn't see anything that happened yesterday, and she won't cause any trouble for you."
"Because I am a human being, I am just doing what a human being should do."
"What's the difference? Humans are born from human mothers, and star beasts are born from star beast mothers. They are all born from mothers!"
Huan Liuli rolled her eyes. She found it difficult to understand Ye Xiao's thoughts.
In the world of star beasts, the strong are respected and the weak are preyed upon by the strong.
The weak are only worthy of being stepped on by the strong! Ye Xiao did not explain too much to her.
Humans have humanity! This is the biggest difference between humans and star beasts.
At this moment, he was walking while staring at the evil ghost with a dull look in his eyes, revealing no thoughts at all.
The evil ghost sat on the golden bronze bull, gnawing at the soul. The soul's expression was so painful that its facial features were twisted together.
But he would not let the other person go just because of this. On the contrary, the more the other person struggled, the more excited he became.
Evil spirits and souls are invisible to normal people.
The evil ghost was gnawing on the soul while admiring his own 'masterpiece'. Looking at the people watching the car accident below, there was a hint of greed in his eyes.
It was obvious that he had a big appetite and not only wanted to devour this soul, his target was also other people's souls.
“Once I have devoured a thousand souls, I will be able to condense my soul body into substance.
By then, with the addition of spiritual energy control, the two combined, I might even be able to directly enter the great sect and become a great sect-level strongman! In that case, it would be equivalent to resurrection and rebirth, and I could get rid of the shackles of the corpse, completely leave this place, and become a free person! "
But at this moment, his eyes suddenly noticed Ye Xiao.
The moment their eyes met, his expression was stunned.
Was he discovered?
Wow! This guy looks young, but he's actually quite talented!
No, since he has seen me, I must not let him leave. Otherwise, if I am exposed and attract a grandmaster or an exorcist above the grandmaster level, I will be finished.
Thinking of this, he immediately dropped the soul that had bitten off one of his arms and rushed straight towards Ye Xiao.
In an instant, the electromagnetic field on the entire street was disturbed. The traffic lights and street lamps flashed rapidly, cars honked one after another, a cloud in the sky blocked the dazzling light of the sun, and a gust of cold wind blew by, and everyone couldn't help but shrink their necks.
The evil ghost was extremely fast, like a flash of black lightning, and in an instant, it appeared in front of Ye Xiao.
That ugly face looked even more terrifying because of its bloodthirsty mouth that was open in a hideous grin.
It's not just because killing Ye Xiao will prevent his secret from being exposed, but also because a stronger person will have stronger soul power!
Great tonic!
Of course, he wouldn't think Ye Xiao was that strong.
What danger could there be for a twenty-year-old kid?
"die!"
