Starting My Cultivation With Immortality - Chapter 31

Chapter 31 Death Wish

After the series of events, Yun Su stopped eating

He Buyu and the kids didn’t even have time to be afraid. It happened so fast. By the time they came back to their senses, everyone on the third floor had “flown” out.

The children were from the Mystic Wood Sect after all, and they were not ordinary children. They were not afraid but they watched with relish.

“Sir, it’s no longer safe here. Let’s go.”

He Buyu originally wanted to stay and watch the show but he was worried that the five little guys would be in danger. Yun Su nodded. When he tried to pay the bill, he realized that He Buyu had already instructed someone to sign the bill. Only then did they go downstairs together. Coincidentally, someone on the street was selling umbrellas. He bought a few umbrellas and sent the three little guys back to the academy.

The College guards became alerted as well and stood in a defensive line at the door.

Yun Su took Wang Xuanji and Wang Xuanyu with her and was in no hurry to leave. He sat in the pavilion at the entrance of the academy with He Buyu. The terrain here was higher, and it was suitable for looking into the distance.

At that moment, there was a commotion on the ancient city wall. They were saving people and on the roof of the street opposite the academy, the rapist Tu Zhongshu was fighting with Ye Ning.

“The constables from the county office will be here soon. Unfortunately, it’s not enough to arrest such evil. It’s only possible when the city defense forces’ strong bows and crossbows arrive.”

He Buyu clenched his fists and swung them hard from time to time, wishing he could catch the thief himself.

“Sir, have you heard of the Sword Palace of Mount Wu?”

“Mount Wu Sword Palace? I’ve heard my family mention it before. It’s a holy land of martial arts but it’s not in the territory of Yangming Prefecture. Could these people be from the Mount Wu Sword Palace?”

“I overheard them talking about it just now.”

The citizens of Yuyang City also loved to watch the show. Three people were fighting on the roof, causing rubble to fly everywhere and the tiles to collapse. Yet, there were still people hiding on both sides of the street to watch the show.

“If the five of you attack together and used the Five Elements Sword Formation, the fight might still be engaging. You two immature children are courting death.”

Seeing that only two people were chasing after him, Tu Zhongshu was filled with killing intent. The people from the Mount Wu Sword Palace had been chasing him closely for the past month and he was filled with anger.

“Hmph! Old criminal.”

Ye Ning was a man of few words. He drew a sword with a cold light in his hand and took the initiative to attack. He executed a set of flowing sword techniques, looking rather spectacular in the rain.

Occasionally, raindrops would be swept into the street by the sword. The force was not small and it would even make the onlookers exclaim.

“Senior Brother, let me help you.”

The three of them fought for a few rounds and their sword moves went straight for the vital points. The two people from the Sword Palace cooperated better, and for a moment, the three of them were evenly matched. “The Transformation Rain Sword of the Mount Wu Sword Palace is only so-so with the help of the rain.”

The soft sword in Tu Zhongshu’s hand changed and suddenly attacked Ye Ning. Ye Ning jumped up and realized that the other party was only feinting. Like a poisonous snake, he bit the girl with one strike. With a sizzling sound, her right shoulder was hit by the sword. It was so deep that his bones could be seen and blood flowed. Her combat strength was instantly halved.

“Ah!”

WO

The girl fell to the side and covered her wound. Ye Ning was agitated. Even her hair was disheveled. She circulated her true qi to the limit and used an extremely strange sword technique. For a moment, her power increased exponentially.

“Little rat, I didn’t expect you to master the Broken Sword at such a young age. I can’t let you live.”

“Die.”

A murderous young man from the Sword Palace and a rapist who had done evil for many years had reached the point of killing each other.

“Old criminal, don’t be arrogant. Senior Brother Ye Ning is talented. He will definitely kill you today.”

In the girl’s opinion, although Rapist Tu was at the fourth level and was not far from death, she had mysterious confidence in her senior brother.

“Hahahaha, kill me? I’ve been in the martial world for decades and I’ve heard a big joke today. Children who have reached the perfected third level but haven’t broken through, I’ll let you experience what it means to be arrogant.”

Tu Zhongshu seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world and laughed like a villain. His aura suddenly soared and his originally fourth-level martial arts instantly broke through to the fifth level.

Ye Ning stabbed out with his sword. The soft sword slithered up like a snake’s spine and pecked his hand. The aura on the sword exploded and his right hand exploded into pieces.

With a bang, he was kicked in the chest again. Several of his chest ribs were broken and his entire chest collapsed. He flew back with his injuries and was caught by the girl. Unfortunately, the force was heavy and the two of them fell to the street, vomiting blood.

“Senior Brother, your hand!!”

The girl cried out and grabbed the mangled and blasted right hand. She burst into tears.

How did such a genius like Senior Brother Ye Ning lose? His right palm was gone, so how could he practice his sword in the future?

“The fifth level! Sister… leave… quickly leave…”

Ye Ning was utterly disheartened and extremely regretful. What happened today flashed across his mind like lightning. If he had listened to his senior brother, he wouldn’t have been crippled.

His sword technique cultivation was all in his right hand. Whether it was the trajectory of his Qi circulation or the internal energy route, once his right hand was crippled, all ten years of cultivation would be wasted.

In an instant, he thought of how he had learned the sword when he was young and had passed through many difficulties to enter the Mount Wu Sword Palace to obtain first place in that year.

After a day of nursing Qi, he had stepped into the first level of the Martial Dao in ten days. In just three years, he had already broken through to the third level of the Martial Dao. If he succeeded in this trial and obtained the qualifications to enter the Sword Tomb, he could choose a suitable divine weapon and break into the fourth level of the Martial Dao in one go, becoming the disciple with the fastest cultivation progress in the Sword Palace in the past hundred years.

However, not only was he seriously injured and his True Qi in chaos but his realm was also unstable and he was about to lose his life. He even implicated this junior sister who admired him.

“No… Senior Brother, I’m not leaving. If I die, I die with you.”

“Leave quickly. I, Ye Ning, learned the sword at the age of three and am determined to pursue the Martial Dao. It’s a pity that I didn’t listen to my senior brother’s advice when I was young and frivolous. Although I’m unwilling to die today, I only have myself to blame. You’re still young. Leave quickly!”

Ye Ning roared as he slowly stood up with the support of his sword. The aura on his body fluctuated violently. He was going to risk his life with this broken body.

This was the first time in his life that he knew that he could not defy the heavens and change his fate.

“This old man is Tu Zhongshu. I originally had no intention of staying long today. It was all forced by you. You wanted to kill someone on the streets and destroy your Mount Wu Sword Palace’s children.”

A mere third-level martial artist dares to kill me? Not to mention you guys, even in this Yuyang City, who can do anything to me? The world is huge, and I, Tu Zhongshu, am the greatest at this moment. Hahahaha, so what if I have raped countless wives and daughters? So what if I kill people like hemp? Who can do anything to me!! Who can stop me!! Who can kill me!!”

In the pavilion outside the academy, Wang Xuanji couldn’t help but close his eyes when he saw the two people from Mount Wu Sword Palace defeated. The rapist roared from the roof and was extremely arrogant. Then, he soared into the sky and turned into a monstrous sword light that descended.

“Too bad.”

He Buyu had witnessed the cause and effect of the entire matter today. What was different from his divination was that the three people from the Sword Palace had avoided a calamity by accident but two of them had also answered the divination.

Although he had calculated correctly, he only sighed.

“As the saying goes, while virtue is a feet tall, the devil is ten feet tall. Although, that might not be necessarily true.”

Among everyone present, Yun Su was the one who knew the entire story the best. Even the scheme behind it did not escape his eyes.

As soon as he finished speaking, white light flashed in the air. A sword qi approached from afar and instantly hit Tu Zhongshu, who was hiding in the sword light.

“Wow.”

The sword light dissipated and Tu Zhongshu revealed himself. He rolled down the street and spat out a mouthful of blood. His body was cut by countless sword qi and his right hand that was holding the sword was cut off at the shoulder. If Ye Ning, who was fighting with his life on the line with his sword, had already lost half of his cultivation and half of his life, this rapist had directly lost his entire cultivation and half of his life.

At this moment, everyone present saw that a woman in white had appeared in the crowd. She was wearing a cloak and her face was covered with an opaque white veil. Blood was dripping from a four-foot-long sword in her hand.

The blood flowed away with the rain.

After the woman defeated Tu Zhongshu, she bowed in the direction of the academy, as if asking for permission.

The corners of Yun Su’s mouth twitched slightly. The next moment, a faint voice that everyone could hear sounded in all directions.

“Tu Zhongshu has committed many evil deeds, humiliated countless wives and daughters and committed countless bloody crimes. At this moment, his martial arts are all crippled. What are you waiting for?

Hehe, who can do anything to him? Who can stop him? Who can kill him…”

“Kill Tu Zhongshu.”

“Cut this old criminal into pieces.”

“Let me go first.”

For a moment, the crowd was in an uproar. Countless people rushed forward, cutting, tearing with their hands, biting with their mouths. Tu Zhongshu screamed in pain. First, he begged, then he cursed, and finally, he burst into tears and peed himself.

Yun Su looked at the scene on the street. There was no sadness or joy in his voice. He had not used any bewitching methods to bewitch the people just now. He had only done it so that everyone could hear him clearly.

In the end, the constables and the city guards rushed over. When they saw that the crowd was agitated, they waited from afar. When they finally went to clean up the mess, Tu Zhongshu had already been beaten to death. They could only carry the corpse back to the government office. After the inspection, they would hang it on the city wall for three days.

When Wang Xuanji opened his eyes, she was stunned by the situation.

“Big Brother Yun, how did Tu Zhongshu die?”

“As the saying goes, villains die because they talk too much.”
