Chapter 6 Is There Such a Monster in the Song Dynasty?
After leaving the City Lord’s residence, Sikong Changfeng hastily made his way toward the Ascension Pavilion.
Upon arriving, he was relieved to see that while the pavilion was still intact, the fifteenth floor had been destroyed.
He had feared that the two combatants might have demolished the entire pavilion, and that would have been an unthinkable disaster for him. However, the destruction of the fifteenth floor was not something he could easily let slide.
Unable to contain his anger, Sikong Changfeng didn’t bother with the stairs; with a few quick leaps, he reached the fifteenth floor.
Once there, he finally saw the situation clearly.
Fairy Luoxia was sitting cross-legged, seemingly meditating to adjust her breathing.
After a quick glance, Sikong Changfeng relaxed, realizing that Yin Luoxia wasn’t injured, though her energy was somewhat unstable.
It was obvious that she had lost the duel.
Sikong Changfeng shifted his gaze to the young man not far away, and his pupils contracted in surprise!
The aura coming from Jiang Che gave him a sense of pressure, indicating that the youth’s cultivation level was at least on par with his own—likely a ninth-stage Great Grandmaster or even approaching the level of a Half-Step Heavenly Realm!
“Who are you?”
“Why are you causing trouble in Snow Moon City?”
Sikong Changfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, his mind alert.
This young man appeared to be only eighteen, yet his strength was extraordinary.
Instinctively, Sikong Changfeng assumed Jiang Che must be a prodigy raised by some powerful force.
His mind raced as he tried to recall if he had ever offended such a figure.
Could this be an enemy of his senior brothers coming to seek revenge?
“You must be Sikong Changfeng, the City Lord, right?”
“There’s been a misunderstanding. My name is Jiang Che, from the Song Dynasty, with no sect or master. I’m just a wandering swordsman. Today, I came to challenge the Sword Immortal of Snow Moon City.
“Earlier, I accidentally overdid it and ended up destroying the fifteenth floor of the Ascension Pavilion. I hope you won’t hold it against me.”
Sikong Qianluo, glancing around in confusion, asked,
“Sister Luoxia, where are my father and that troublemaker?”
“They went to Erhai Lake to fight,” Yin Luoxia replied lazily, glancing at Li Hanyi.
“That young man’s name is Jiang Che, from the Song Dynasty. He doesn’t belong to any sect and came today to challenge Li Hanyi.”
She had overheard their conversation and was equally curious.
When had the Song Dynasty produced such an outstanding young talent?
So young, yet already so powerful!
“In that case, let’s go take a look.”
Bai Li Dongjun’s interest was piqued, and in a flash, he darted towards Erhai Lake, with Li Hanyi following right behind him.
Yin Luoxia was about to follow when Sikong Qianluo stopped her.
“Sister Luoxia, wait for me!”
“Sister Luoxia, take me with you, please!”
Sikong Qianluo tugged at Yin Luoxia’s sleeve, pouting playfully.
Though she thought Jiang Che was a troublemaker, he was quite handsome, and she didn’t want her father to injure him too badly.
Although she wasn’t sure how strong Jiang Che was, she was certain he couldn’t defeat her father.
After all, Sikong Changfeng was the renowned Spear Immortal of Beili, and there was no way a boy like Jiang Che could match him.
Since there was a vast gap between each martial realm, Sikong Qianluo, at her third-stage Grandmaster level, knew she wouldn’t be able to catch up with the others. By the time she arrived, the fight would probably be over.
“All right.”
Yin Luoxia patted Sikong Qianluo on the head, clearly delighted by her endearing “sister” act, and didn’t refuse her request.
“Hehe, Sister Luoxia is the best!”
