Song of Adolescence

Chapter 421 All Swordsmen Under Heaven

Red Prince Residence.

The news of the Solitary Sword Immortal entering the city had already spread throughout Heavenly Revelations. Naturally, it had also reached the Red Prince. However, Xiao Yu wasn't as pleased as one would imagine. He swirled the wine cup in his hand, the expression on his face dour.

"I wrote a letter to Godfather asking him to come and now, he’s here but he didn't tell me he was coming in this way," Xiao Yu said faintly.

"You asked him to come covertly and help you kill those who were standing in your way. But, who'd have thought that he would provoke all under Heaven the moment he stepped into Heavenly Revelations City. He even challenged all swordsmen under Heaven." Su Changhe had a slight frown on his face as he was lost in thought. "What’s his purpose?"

"What else could it be?" Xiao Yu sneered. "Mister, what do you think of the current situation?"

"Although it's a little different from what we expected, I believe we still hold an advantage." The Patriarch said slowly, "At least for now, the Solitary Sword Immortal is on our side. He cut down the plaque of Heavenly Revelations deliberately to provoke the Xiao Clan imperial family. He left word to challenge the sword of Heavenly Revelations to deliberately provoke all swordsmen under Heaven. The Xiao Clan need to save their face, and the competitive spirits of all these swordsmen cannot be suppressed, then at least three people currently in Heavenly Revelations City will respond to his challenge. "

"Which three?" Xiao Yu asked.

"The first one is Wrath Sword Immortal Yan Zhantian. He's a sword fanatic and a real man of the martial world. He will not miss out on the opportunity to duel the Solitary Sword Immortal. The second one is Lei Wujie of Lei Clan Fort. He's the successor of the Heart sword, the current master of Sword Heart Tomb, and the disciple of two sword immortals. He will definitely answer this challenge. The third is Xiao Se."

"Xiao Se?" Xiao Yu was surprised. "But he doesn't use a sword."

"We invited the Solitary Sword Immortal here to kill Xiao Se. Even if he doesn't use a sword, the Solitary Sword Immortal will challenge his sword." Su Changhe sneered. "I'm willing to bet that Xiao Se will definitely answer this sword."

Outside the Heavenly Revelations City Imperial Palace.

Under a tea shack.

A middle-aged man in a grey robe sat inside, slowly drinking his tea.

The waiters of the teahouse had all left. He was the only one inside, boiling his own water, brewing his own tea, and drinking tea by himself. His surroundings within a ten zhang radius were completely deserted and the other shops had all shut their doors. A cordon formed by rows after rows of Imperial Army guards surrounded the place like an inescapable net but no one dared to move forward.

A middle-aged scholar made his way through the cordon and walked inside. Of course, the Imperial Army tried to stop him, but the soldier only managed to raise his blade before it snapped in half.

"I have no ill intentions, please let me through." The middle-aged scholar spoke evenly, then he passed right through their cordon, walked up to the man in the grey robe and sat down.

"Qingyang-xiong." The middle-aged scholar bowed his head.

"Mister Xie." The man in grey didn't seem surprised as he poured a cup of tea for the middle-aged scholar.

Solitary Sword Immortal, Luo Qingyang.

Confucian Sword Immortal, Xie Xuan.

Two peerless sword immortals sat side by side just outside the palace gates of Heavenly Revelations City.

"Have you completely mastered your Sword of Desolation?" Xie Xuan asked slowly.

"Achieved a small mastery," Luo Qingyang replied.

"No wonder, no wonder. In the past, it was always all under Heaven challenging your sword. This time, you have achieved mastery, so it's not unreasonable of you to challenge the sword of all under Heaven." Xie Xuan smiled. "It's just, in your opinion, who is worthy of challenging your sword?"

"The person I wanted to challenge the most is already dead," Luo Qingyang said mildly.

Xie Xuan nodded. "Daoist Sword Immortal Zhao Yuzhen."

"But you're still alive," Luo Qingyang said again.

Xie Xuan flapped his hands. "I can't, I can't. Although I have a sword in my hand, I'm a scholar. Look at my book, no, my sword, it's called the Book of Knowledge."

"To read ten thousand volumes of books and travel ten thousand miles of road. I really admire Mister Xie," Luo Qingyang said.

Xie Xuan chuckled. "I won't continue with the pleasantries. This time, is Qingyang-xiong here only to challenge your sword?"

"Challenging my sword is merely a personal aspiration. I will wait here for seven days, for all swordsmen under Heaven to come and challenge my sword. After seven days, I will kill one person and take another person away," Luo Qingyang said evenly.

"The person you want to wait for, Baili Dongjun, won't come." Xie Xuan put away his smile. "The person you want to take away is very difficult to take. As for the person you want to kill, who do you want to kill?"

Luo Qingyang raised his eyebrows slightly, and the Nine Songs sword in his hand suddenly unsheathed. With a wave of his hand, the exceptionally long sword shot into the air and pierced a gap through the Imperial Army cordon. After flying through almost half of Heavenly Revelations City, it turned back and dropped steadily back into its sheath.

Xie Xuan looked solemn and had a thought, "What an impressive Nine Songs sword."

In the time it took for a deep exhale, the plaque over the Yong'an Prince Residence fell to the ground. The mark left by a sword was clearly visible.

Xiao Se stood at the door and sighed faintly. "So, he's here for me, huh."

Lei Wujie squatted down and reached out to brush his hand over the sword mark. "Compared to the sword intent left by the White Feather Sword Immortal on the first floor of the First Tower Under Heaven, this can only be stronger, not weaker."

"Looks like the most powerful sword immortal in a century has come for our lives," Xiao Se said lazily.

Obviously, the people who noticed that this sword had suddenly unsheathed itself were not only those from the Yong'an Prince Residence.

That sword had brushed past two people when it flew through the streets.

The youth almost wanted to reach out and block the sword, but he was stopped by a man in black next to him. The man was holding an oil-paper umbrella.

The Umbrella Ghost Su Muyu and Unrivaled Citymaster Wushuang had also finally arrived in this city.

Luo Qingyang challenged the sword of Heavenly Revelations, not the sword of all Under Heaven. But, now, almost all the famous swordsmen under Heaven were already in this city.

Wushuang exclaimed, "That sword just now was truly ultimate."

"I have fought against the Snow Moon Sword Immortal and the Daoist Sword Immortal. This person's sword aura is stronger than theirs." Su Muyu reached out a hand to feel the sword intent as it flashed past. "This swordsman…"

"I'm guessing this must be Luo Qingyang, the Solitary Sword Immortal who secluded himself in his city. That sword aura earlier, although ultimate, was imbued with an intent full of desolation. He has also come to Heavenly Revelations?" Wushuang asked in puzzlement.

"When I left Heavenly Revelations City, I didn't hear anything about Luo Qingyang coming," Su Muyu replied.

While the two of them were talking, the sword had turned back again.

Su Muyu frowned. "Follow it."

Back in the tea shack, Xie Xuan had finished drinking all the tea in his cup. He sighed and faced the other. "Qingyang-xiong, Xie Xuan will take my leave first."

"In a hurry?" Luo Qingyang lowered his head and looked at the Nine Songs sword that had just returned to its sheath.

"I wouldn't mind sitting for a while, but I'm afraid that someone can't wait any longer. I'm also afraid that he'll think I'm here to snatch his opponent. He has a terrible temper and his martial arts are too powerful so I have to hide." Xie Xuan stood up with a grin, raised his head, and looked at Yan Zhantian, who had already arrived. He stood a short distance away with his Army Destroyer sword.

"Zhantian-xiong, I haven't seen you in a long time." Luo Qingyang poured another cup of tea and put it aside. "Drink a cup of tea first."

With a loud "bang", the teacup shattered as soon as he finished speaking.

Xie Xuan smiled bitterly and dodged the shards. "See, I was right."

Yan Zhantian looked at Luo Qingyang and said solemnly, "My sword is here. Go ahead and challenge it."
