Chapter 210 Canglin Tournament (25)

The dusk had come; the wind had blown; and the maple leaf rose, painted the whole sky into bloody red.

On the road from Copper Fort to Canglin Town, a rider galloped by.

The man was about forty, his hair was disheveled, while his clothes were unkempt. What drew people’s attentions was his sword on his waist.

The horse, was an inferior horse; the sword, was a nameless sword.

But the rider with the sword was an ultimate Master in Jianghu.

Xie San’s appearance was very tired. The wind flew his disorderly hair, and it seemed to be telling a piece of dispirited that cannot cover by himself.

But all at once he pulled his horse to a halt, and his tired eyes became as keen as an eagle’s.

Because he saw another person.

In the wind, a swordsman in white stood straightly. He was the first person in the whole town to learn that Xie San had passed the Copper Fort.

“Lin Chang?” Xie San knew the man in front of him was one of the Six Swordsmen of Flower and Shadow, the Clear Sky Sword Lin Chang.

“Long time no see, Xie San.” “Said Lin in a low, deep voice. His voice was cold and his eyes were full of contempt. At the moment, he was totally different compared to the decent hero in the Canglin Hotel.

Without saying a word, Xie San stepped off the horse. He turned the horse’s head with the reins and patted it. The horse trotted off toward the Copper Fort.

Autumn wind had flowed. At this moment, it’s like there were only two people with two swords in the world.

The meaning of killing has been around, the reason why Lin Chang came was too obvious to tell.

“Last time I saw you, I knew that the Sword of Clean Sky was a sword hidden in the container.” Xie San sink his voice, said: “Hide your brightness and express your modesties, so nobody can see your dagger under sleeves.”

“Is that so? Then tell me why…… I can’t see not even a little bit of fear in your eyes. “Asked Lin Chang.

“Because you are no match for me, though you show your dagger.” Xie San replied calmly.

“Ha ha ha… “Lin Chang laughed. His eyes didn’t smile at all. “Xie San, you really disappointed me.” When he said this, he threw his sword to the ground, and he stood proudly with his hands behind his back. “Do you think my Kungfu can be see through by a second-level swordsman like you?”

If another person heard this at the moment, he would probably think that Lin Chang had lost his mind. If he calculated Xie San as a “second-level” swordsman, then current 90% of Wulin people will be calculate as “totally newbies “.

If it’s like that, Jianghu will become a totally joke.

“Lin chang, you seem to be crazy.” Xie San was calm and unmoved.

A person who practices martial arts to the peak will not easily shake. He believes more on his years of hard work than language.

Xie San, as such a top master on Kungfu is lonely, because he cannot find rivals, and he cannot find people who really understand him.

In the eyes of Xie San, the only one that can understand is Ye Cheng, the sword god. No one but the sword god could come to the same realm with him. So, there’s no second person who can sway him. Even if there are ten Lin Chang standing here today, it will still be the same.

“You’ll soon understand that I’m wide awake.” Lin Chang paused for a moment. Then he said, “you have come to fight with the sword god.” He sneered: “Ye Cheng’s swordsmanship is just a sideshow, he simply can’t bear the name of sword god…….. “At this moment, Lin Chang’s intention of killing suddenly climbed, and there are nothing can come close to his body, even leaves and sands,” If someone in this world can be called Sword God……. That should be me!  Lin Chang!”

Xie San shook his head: “Crazy person with silly language.”

His voice didn’t disappear yet, but his backhand already drawn the sword, and it was fast as a hunted eagle. The scabbard had not yet fallen to the ground, and countless shadows were scattered all over the sky, like a thousand swords hanging in the air.

Nameless Sword was out of its scabbard, the mightily Qi from Nameless Sword filled the space between Ling Chang and Xie San.

But Lin Chang just sneered a cold snort disdainfully.

When the sword comes out of its sheath, it will see blood coming.

Xie SAN was merciless, he moved extremely fast in front of Lin Chang’s body, and his sword was directly chop to Lin Chang’s throat.

Lin chang’s right hand rose suddenly with double fingers to the side of his neck. At this moment, he was so calm that Xie San felt a chill.

Lin Chang calmly tapped the sword with his fingers lightly, then the blade of the Nameless sword was shaken and went away.

Xie San felt a surge of internal force like the tiger rolled to his right arm, and the sword in his hand was almost fell. He hurried on his inner Qi, and stopped going. By this force, he tried to rotation and dodged to another side.

“You!” Xie SAN was too surprised to say anything. The brief exchange was enough to shatter his pride and all the common sense he had built up over the years.

“Hum… I didn’t even use a sword, and you are afraid to be like this… Ha-ha… “At this moment, Lin Chang’s face had a layer of indescribable dark black.

“You…… What evil Kungfu did you study?” Xie San’s forehead oozed cold sweat, and he was totally stunned by Lin Chang.

From his personal feelings, Lin Chang’s careless finger felt like a master focus on the training of internal force for more than 50 years, and he used his full power to slap out.

“The twilight is dark and evil, while the leaves are red like sunset.[1] Do you know, Xie San?” Lin Chang said, he picked up a red leaf that had fallen from the wind and looked down at the leaf. “Once upon a time, my sights were as narrow as yours.” He sneered: “I thought, the Kungfu of 4 factions, 3 cliques, 2 house, 1 family can be called superior martial arts; I thought, a swordsman like you and Ye Cheng was the Lord of the sword. I thought, with my qualifications, I would never catch up with you in my life. Ha-ha… I was wrong.” Before he could finish his words, his hand gently dropped the leaves, drawing a trace of red in the air. Suddenly, Xie San was hurt on his left chest and blood flew over sky.

”There are mountains beyond mountains, and heavens beyond heavens. That’s absolutely true.” Lin Chang didn’t even look at Xie San: “Even myself didn’t think getting this, the “Truly Master Kungfu” for a long time… He laughed and said, “When I first achieved the Kungfu, I knew what a poor technique you people are practicing. How bullshit were Ye Family Swordplay, Wanxia Divine Skill, Bafang Supreme Skill, Shaolin 72 Unique Skill… They were all just completely stupid and misleading!”

There were blood over Xie San’s mouth, although he was still able to stood, he already can’t move.

Lin chang approached him one step. “Do you want to find a truly sword track with Ye Cheng? Ha ha…” He smiled coldly, “Don’t worry, you won’t break your promise. He’s waiting for you in the hell… ”

Xie San’s eyes opened widly, stared at Lin Chang with amazement: “You…. “He immediately thought of Lin Chang’s previous words, "Ye Cheng’s swordsmanship is just a sideshow.”

“Ha ha… You see, yes. Ye Cheng has been killed by me, and he will not come.” Lin Chang continued to smile proudly and slowly raised his hand. “You shall go with him to the hell! Nameless Sword Xie San!”

 

 

[1]Lin Chang created a little poem depended on the weather and environment at that time. But “Evil” didn’t really suit the condition. I’m afraid it should be a typo of the Chinese editor. Anyway, I used it in the chapter.
