Chen Ling's single sword strike had pierced into the back of Jiang Guyuan's heart, completely exceeding everyone's expectations. Everyone present looked at the scene before their eyes, and felt a little unreal, and were deeply shaken.
"What?" Jiang Guyuan was killed by Chen Ling. "
In the future, there was a chance for him to cultivate inner strength and become a Martial Saint, or even a Great Master of his generation. To think that he would lose his life here, it could be known that Chen Ling was indeed an outstanding person, and as he grew in the future, he would definitely become a powerful swordsman.
The disciples of the super big sects were divided into the outer sect, the inner sect, and the core sect. The disciples of different levels were divided into the outer sect, inner sect, and the inner sect. The disciples of the super big sects were divided into the outer sect, inner sect, and the inner sect, and the core sect.
The inner sect disciples were all official disciples of the sect. They were allowed to formally impart knowledge, like precious swords, medicinal pills, secret arts, mental cultivation methods, etc. There were many benefits to them. The status of core disciples was even higher.
Moreover, Chen Ling's name had now shaken all of the various countries. Now that it belonged to one of his subordinates, it naturally gave him a lot of prestige and popularity, and gave him a lot of invisible benefits.
"Alright …" "Alright …" Over a hundred foreign delegates in the mansion immediately raised their eyebrows and gave vent to their pride. Their thunderous applause reverberated throughout the mansion without end.
Chen Ling pulled out his sword, which was drenched in blood. Jiang Guyuan had lost all her energy and fell to the ground, just a moment ago she was arrogant and claimed that she wanted Chen Ling to kneel down or else she would kill Chen Ling, but now she had become a lifeless corpse.
"Reporting to His Highness the crown prince, prime minister Gongsun, and Young Master Wei, this lowly one had failed for a moment and accidentally killed Jiang Guyuan. I hope everyone will punish me!" Chen Ling said indifferently to break the deadlock.
"You! Damn it, you actually dared to kill my guest! " The Crown Prince was furious, as if he was using this as an excuse to kill Chen Ling.
But Young Master Wei also opened his mouth: "Hehe, Chen Ling, you are in the sword competition, life and death are determined by fate, there is nothing wrong, if you did not kill him, the one who died was you, if you died, I would not blame you, after all, your skills are not good, life and death depends on you, who can you blame?"
In the past few months, the Crown Prince had secretly competed with the Young Master Wei, and had sent his subordinates to fight in a few big occasions, and each side would be wounded or dead, with three to two, the Young Master Wei had lost slightly, and now they had even returned, and for the losers, most of them would be wounded or dead.
The Crown Prince was so angry that he couldn't flare up after hearing Wei Yu's retort for a while. His face turned green as he waved his sleeves: "This Highness remembers you, Chen Ling, you won't be so lucky next time!"
Chen Ling was neither humble nor arrogant, he said indifferently: "This lowly subordinate will definitely live up to Your Highness' expectations!"
"Good!" "Very good!" If looks could kill, Chen Ling would have already been killed many times. Finally, the Crown Prince turned to Young Master Wei and snorted: "Tomorrow in the palace, I will report to the King and fetch Mr. Gan Mao. Farewell."
"Brother Wang, have a safe trip!" Wei Yu laughed in his heart as he replied politely.
The Crown Prince lost face and was too embarrassed to stay. He flung his sleeves and left, while Zhang Yi, Hong Zhui Yang and the other warriors followed the Crown Prince out of the Marquis Mansion in the Young Master Wei.
Gongsun Yan looked at Chen Ling and nodded slightly. He was a young man that was talented in both martial arts and literature, and as long as he did not die prematurely, he would become a pillar of the Wei in the future.
"Young Master Wei, this old man will also take his leave. Brother Gan Mao, let's talk in detail another day." Gongsun Yan stroked his beard and said with a smile. No matter who it was, they could not see through his true intentions, and as expected of the first person in the entire expert in diplomacy to suggest such a plan.
Wei Yu cupped his hands: "I am sending off prime minister!"
"How could I dare? Young master, don't be so courteous. This old man will go too." Gongsun Yan laughed loudly as he left.
Wei Yu turned to look at the guest at the banquet, and after looking at each other in dismay, he suddenly broke out into laughter together. No one expected the crown prince to angrily come forward to punish him, gather the masses, and then leave in a depressed and exasperated manner.
Stealing chickens without eating rice, Chen Ling suddenly thought of this story and described the crown prince's trip as perfectly fitting.
"Chen Ling, come with me." Wei Yu called out to Chen Ling and brought him back to the study room at the back of the main hall.
Chen Ling's mind flashed, and answered: When I was thirteen years old, I met a sword expert in the forest, and he taught me a few sets of sword techniques and martial arts. As for who that expert was, even I do not know his name, and will never see him again. He made up a story.
Due to Wei Yu, Wu Ziqiu, and Mu Shaofeng's preconceived idea that he was an outer disciple of the big sect, they didn't doubt him in the slightest. Instead, they verified his guess, and at this time, Wei Yu sent someone to bring over a five foot long wooden box in front of Chen Ling.
The Young Master Wei opened the lid, and inside was a four foot long treasure sword. The sword sheath was simple and exquisite, a wave of cold Qi emitted out from the sword sheath, causing people's pores to tremble, only to hear Wei Yu saying: "This is one of the five great swords that I have collected, the Jade Profound Sword is invincible, it is extremely sharp, and I will gift it to you, Chen Ling. The treasure sword is compatible with the hero, in the future, you can bring honor to this young master, and exterminate me!"
When Chen Ling took the sword, the four of them started laughing at the same time. Each of them had ulterior motives and from then on, Chen Ling was truly involved in a battle of power and influence between the royal families of the Wei Kingdom.
