Chapter 34: Descending the Mountain

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The next day at noon.

At the foot of Qingyun Mountain.

Song Xiuwen and Yu Haoming repeatedly reminded Hua Feng that he had to take good care of Victor throughout the journey.

Hua Feng patted his chest and promised repeatedly that even at the cost of his own life, he would ensure that junior elder remains safe.

After hearing these words and feeling Hua Feng’s determination, the two elders were finally willing to let him go.

“Little junior brother, when you’re out adventuring, safety comes first. If you manage to get any news about the Jade Marrow Dew, remember to report to us immediately. Don’t act alone,” nagged the elders.

Only when the two of them were a distance away from the foot of Qingyun Mountain did Victor and Hua Fenged looked at each other and smiled as if they had been relieved of a heavy burden.

Without Song Xiuwen and Yu Haoming’s nagging, especially the great elder Song Xiuwen, the two of them instantly felt that their ears were at peace.

“Junior elder, have you thought about where to go first?”

In terms of seniority, Hua Feng was Victor’s senior. But in terms of strength, Hua Feng felt that he was far from being comparable to Victor.

Most importantly, he was just an accompaniment for this trip down the mountain.

Therefore, he still had to ask Victor about his decision on where to go.

Because Victor had to learn how to ride a horse, there was still some delay from the initial time planned for set off.

At four or five o’clock in the afternoon, they finally arrived at an inn fifty miles away from Qingyun Mountain.

As soon as they entered the inn, they could see many unique people from all over the world.

Each of them was dressed differently, and they all looked exhausted from traveling.

Victor decided to stay in this inn for the night.

It was not an urgent matter to go to Tianluo Mountain to look for the Tree Building technique.

He booked two rooms on the third floor at the reception desk.

Then, Victor wanted to order some food to fix his hunger. He came to an empty table on the first floor of the inn and sat down.

At this moment.

A figure walked in from outside. Victor took a casual glance and his pupils contracted.

This person was tall and had broad shoulders. He carried a long knife with a scabbard on his waist.

He was wearing a light yellow sleeveless outfit, exposing his arms. Judging from his exposed arms, he was not bulky, but had a lean muscular figure, like Bruce Lee.

There were many wrinkles on his face. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, but he was so thin that his eye sockets had sunken.

However, the pair of calm eyes of his were like the long scabbard knife that he had yet unsheathed. No one dared look at them directly.

As he walked in, the initially bustling inn suddenly quieted down.

Many people couldn’t help but place their hands on their weapons, as if it provided them with a sense of security.

“This person has such a powerful inner qi…”

In the inn.

The people didn’t dare to act rashly. They cautiously used their peripheral vision to keep track of this swordsman’s movement.

This person’s aura was very strong, but his appearance was very unfamiliar to the people present.

“When did another powerful swordsman appear on the mainland?”

Logically speaking, with this person’s age and strength, it was impossible for anyone who had seen him to not recognize him.

However, they had never heard of such a person.

Unless… everyone who had seen him… was dead.

At this moment, Victor’s eyes brightened.

The more he looked, the more it looked like…

“F*ck!”

“This couldn’t Be Yan Kun, right?”

Looking at this familiar yet unfamiliar outfit, Victor thought of the trailer for The World of Martial Arts, in which a figure of swordsman appeared for less than a second.

“This… can’t be it? Can it be?”

Victor couldn’t believe it.

After many searches done by players, they finally found some information regarding this swordsman.

His name was Yan Kun. In The World of Martial Arts game, he was known as the fastest swordsman in the world.

His strength was unfathomable!

“If he is really Yan Kun, it means that the real big event is not far away.

“If that’s the case, then there are still many monsters hidden on the mainland.”

Victor remembered the last scene in the trailer. Many big leaders were flying with swords and charging towards the evil dragon.

His body shook instantly.

He thought of many things. If it really was like the trailer…

“Unfortunately, the system is currently updating and upgrading. Otherwise, the system could have looked at the other party’s attributes panel, and things would be clear.”

A trace of regret flashed across Victor’s eyes.

Just as Victor was lost in his thoughts, the other party had already come to Victor’s side.

“Two little brothers, may I sit here?”

Victor came back to his senses and found that besides their table, the other tables were practically full.

“May I ask who you are?”

Although this person’s appearance was very similar to Yan Kun’s.

However, upon confirmation, Victor would not easily conclude that he was Yan Kun.

“I am Yan Kun!”

Victor was just asking casually, but he did not expect the other party to answer so straightforwardly and domineeringly.

Boom!

Hearing the other party’s confirmation, Victor felt shocked as if he was struck by lightning.

“This… It really is him!”

Although he had guessed it before, it still surprised Victor greatly after hearing it from him.

This world was very big, and many swordmen liked to wear sleeveless robes for the convenience of wielding their swords.

Even if some people looked similar, it was normal. Moreover, in the trailer, there was only a shadow of the swordsman under the moonlight.

However, now that he knew Yan Kun’s identity, Victor felt even more regretful.

Yan Kun was a person of integrity and determination. He enjoyed helping the weak.

He had never done anything shameful in his life, he was the manliest hero.

Most importantly…

It was said that Yan Kun was born with divine martial arts ability and his enlightenment ability was exceptional. He could learn any technique with one attempt and become proficient in it almost immediately. His martial arts ability were godly.

Not only did he create the Invincible Fist technique, the Dragon Tooth Killing Fist, as well as an incomparably swift and aggressive sword technique, the Blood Shadow sword technique.

He also possessed a top-tier martial arts technique from the Immortal Martial World – the Tiangang Godly Technique.

“It’s a pity that the system is upgrading at this time. Otherwise, I might be able to download Yan Kun’s talents and techniques.”

Such a powerful hidden character appeared in front of him, but he was actually unable to download the other party’s talents and techniques.

Victor’s heart was filled with regret.

“What? Do you know me?”

Yan Kun, who was at the side, had noticed Victor’s strange behavior and asked.

“I’m sorry, I was shocked by senior’s strength and was momentarily lost in thought.”

Victor’s eyes were fixated on Yan Kun as he replied.

Hua Feng, who was standing at the side, saw Victor’s reaction.

Instantly, he was so scared that beads of sweat started rolling down his forehead.

All the word travelers were always careful, afraid of offending others. None of them would act like Victor.

“Senior, I’m sorry. My junior elder is still young and ignorant. Please forgive him if he did something wrong!”

Hua Feng squeezed out a smile and explained.

His other hand was under the table, tugging at Victor’s sleeve, reminding him to be careful with his way or words.

“Junior elder?”

Hearing Hua Feng’s words, Yan Kun scanned Victor up and down in surprise.

Then, his pupils constricted slightly.

“How is this possible?”

It would have been fine if he didn’t investigate, but once he did, Yan Kun was stunned.

This kid, a young boy around the age of ten, had actually reached the Xiantian realm!

Moreover, his realm was very stable. It wasn’t the kind of method where rich families used valuable items to forcefully increase the strength of their family members.

But a down-to-earth, step-by-step training was used to reach this Xiantian realm.
