Chapter 94: The Phantom Swordsman (Part 2)

  After lunch, Feng Buji, Gu Qianrou and Sun Yiqiu continued to search for the Ghost Shadow Swordsman, while Xuan Tian returned to the Tianjian Sect, bidding each other farewell.

  Nearby Wuye Town searched for a circle, Feng Bu Zhi three people, did not find the ghost shadow sword guest's trace.

  "How is this possible? We've been tracking him all the way, following his trail, and Ghost Sword Guest should have arrived at Wild Horse Town, yet there's not a single clue?"

  The three of them searched in vain and returned to the town of Wild Horse, Sun Yiqiu said with great puzzlement.

  Gu Qianrou looked at Feng Bu Zhi. As the leader of their trio, he usually made the decisions on what to do next.

  Feng Bu Zhi furrowed his brow, then suddenly relaxed it and said: "We've been so focused on our own investigation that we forgot that although Ye Ma Town is small, there are still many people around. Perhaps they saw something we don't know about."

  Sun Yiqiu said with a strange tone: "The people here don't know the Ghost Shadow Swordsman, even if they saw him, they wouldn't recognize him."

  Feng Bu Zhi Dao said: "The Wild Horse Town is desolate and few people come. They should know that those who travel, all go in which direction."

  Several people inquired about several towns' martial artists, and the answers were all consistent. The people who came to Wild Horse Town today all went south, not a single one went north.

  In Feng Bu's determined gaze, a sharp light suddenly flashed out, saying: "Go, follow the main road towards the Zongmen direction and chase after him. Guisheng Sword Guest is bold and daring, even on the main road, he may make a move against Huang Tian Shidi."

  Gu Qianrou and Sun Yiqiu both flashed a hint of urgency in their eyes, Sun Yiqiu said: "He knows we've been chasing him all the way, yet he still dares to be so reckless, does he think Tianjian Sect has no one? Let's hurry up and chase after him, don't let Huang Shidi meet with disaster."

  Three men mounted their horses and rushed out of Wild Horse Town towards the south, following the main road at full speed.

  Xuántiān is traveling at a normal pace, neither rushed nor slow. Fēng Bùzhì and the other two are galloping their horses wildly, advancing with all their might, much faster than Xuántiān.

  Xuantianji's horse was also a black Qilin, and there were marks left on the main road. Fengbuzhi and three others chased south for about twenty miles, but the hoof prints on the main road suddenly disappeared and turned onto a small side path, which was a shortcut.

  The main road leads to Nan Ye County Town, while taking the small path can bypass the county town and go through Nan Ye County, at least two hundred miles more.

  As he saw the hoof prints turn towards the small path, Feng Bu Zhi had an even stronger premonition that Xuan Tian would encounter the Ghost Shadow Swordsman. He, who was normally calm and composed, also became anxious.

  If it were the Ghost Shadow Swordsman, they would have killed a Tianjian Sect disciple right under their noses. They wouldn't dare report this to the sect and psychologically couldn't bring themselves to do so. Moreover, in their opinion, Xuanyuan was quite promising and would be a pillar of the Tianjian Sect in the future, so they had to protect him.

  "Quick!"

  The three of them shouted in unison and rushed up the small path at an even faster speed.

  ……

  Xuantian rode on the black Lin horse, neither hastily nor slowly. As for Feng Buzhi's reminder, Xuantian didn't take it to heart. The Ghost Shadow Sword Guest was only a cultivator of the Second Heaven Realm, and even Dingdang, the famous thief known as the Thunderbolt Knife Guest, who was a top-notch expert among the Third Heaven Realm warriors, had been killed by Xuantian. What was there to fear from the Ghost Shadow Sword Guest?

  Therefore, those who take the shortcut will still take the shortcut, and Xuantian will continue to take the shortcut.

  Walked on a small path, walked for more than 100 miles, the small path slowly left the village and entered the desolate mountain area.

  "Blah blah blah blah——!"

  Suddenly, a piercing laughter came from the trees on one side, and several birds were startled by the laughter and flew out of the trees.

  The forest is about 300 meters away from the small path where Xuan Tian is located. It's not close, but for a pre-heavenly realm warrior, it's also not far.

  Xuantian held onto the reins, and the black Qilin horse came to a stop.

  Turning her head to look into the woods, the laughter had stopped, and there was a silence in the woods.

  Half an hour passed, but there was no change at all.

  Xuantian's expression was calm, the reins in his hand relaxed, and his legs clamped together. The black Qilin horse continued to run forward, not at a rapid pace, but Xuantian controlled the tension of the reins, allowing the black Qilin horse to naturally slow down its pace.

  Xuan Tian remained unflappable, galloping his horse wildly while remaining calm and composed, without a hint of fear. The people in the forest let out a soft gasp of amazement, followed by another eerie, cackling laugh that echoed through the air.

  "Ghosting!"

  Xuān Tiān let out a cold hum, his eyes scanning the trees as he controlled the speed of the black Qilin horse. Not a single thread was out of place, not a hint of panic. The black Qilin horse seemed to be startled by that laugh, its eyes appearing somewhat disordered, but under Xuān Tiān's control, it did not go wild and continued to move slowly.

  "Good boy, you're quite brave!"

  A figure emerged from the woods, clad entirely in black robes and a hood.

  He originally wanted to play cat and mouse, but Xuántiān wasn't a mouse, so he wasn't affected by him at all.

  Xuantian's calm demeanor made this person feel like a clown, performing alone in front of him, but Xuantian was completely unmoved.

  Since it can't be played out, this person had no choice but to show up.

  He took a step forward, and his body advanced twenty or thirty meters. The whole person was like a leisurely stroll, floating freely, but the speed was very fast, much faster than the black rhinoceros's full-speed gallop.

  This is just a casual stroll; if I were to go all out and run at full speed, the velocity would be unimaginable.

  "Such a high level of lightness, the opponent's lightness skills are not inferior to mine. At least they have cultivated the lower-grade lightness of the Xuan stage to the realm of great completion, or even the degree of great perfection." A hint of surprise flashed in Xu Tian's eyes.

  The man in black had his face covered and couldn't see his appearance, but from the innate aura emanating from him, he should have a cultivation of Innate Realm Second Order.

  In his mind, a name suddenly flashed out, and he looked at the newcomer and said: "Ghost Shadow Swordsman?"

  "Chatter, chatter, chatter, youngster! Knowing my name is an unfortunate thing!"

  "As I walk away, those who see me are in for an even greater misfortune!"

  Xuantian smiled faintly and said, "These are nothing, there are things that are a hundred times more unfortunate than this."

  "Oh, what is it?" The Ghost Shadow Swordsman had arrived a hundred meters in front of Xu Tian, and asked with interest.

  Xuantian said calmly: "It's just that you've met me."

  The shadow of the swordsman stopped, looking at Xuan Tian. After a long while, he suddenly burst out laughing, his laughter piercing to the extreme. When he finished laughing, he said: "Interesting, kid, you're even more arrogant than me. However, in my eyes, you're just a madman who's about to die and still doesn't know it."

  Xuantian calmly said: "Death is approaching, yet you still don't know. This sentence, isn't it often not you? You're too confident."

  "Blah blah blah blah……!"

  The Shadow Swordsman laughed and said, "I have to admit, you are the most mentally tough warrior I've met since coming to the Divine Sword Dynasty. You're right, it's confidence, overconfidence, haha...it's really interesting! We both thought the other was doomed, overconfidence is really too interesting! I'm curious, where does your confidence come from?"

  After finishing his speech, the Ghost Shadow Swordsman didn't care whether Xuan Tian answered or not and continued to say: "Those three who were chasing and killing me, the Tian Jian Sect disciples? Are they your senior brothers and sisters? Do you think they can save you? I come and go as I please, with a ghostly shadow and no trace. It's just that I didn't want to play with them. Let me tell you clearly, even if your senior brothers and sisters came, the Ghost Shadow Swordsman wants to kill you, and you will definitely die without a doubt. No one can stop it. You think you can rely on them? It's unreliable! Moreover, they are not by your side now, so you can't even rely on them. Chatter, chatter, chatter!"

  Xuantian calmly said: "I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I've always relied on myself!"

  Looking at Xuan Tian's calm and collected demeanor, the Ghost Shadow Swordsman's face was slightly heavy, as if in thought. After a while, he burst out laughing again, saying: "I can't guess why you're so confident, but I'll let you know what despair is! Confidence, although it's just an idea, also needs to be supported by strength. When I crush your dignity inch by inch, see if you can still remain calm!"

  Towards the end, the voice of Guiying Sword Guest was somewhat angry. He liked to see others in front of him because he felt fear and despair, rather than confidence and calmness, treating him as if he were nothing.

  "I'm also very curious!"

  Xuantian gazed at the Ghost Shadow Swordsman's eyes and said, "I have no grudges or grievances with you, we can be said to be like wind, horse, and cow that do not intersect. Why did you chase me from Yeema Town all the way to this place, is it just to kill me?"

  A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the Swordsman Ghost, and he said: "You know I've been chasing you from Wild Horse Town?"

  Xuān Tiān shrugged and said, "I believe what Fēng Shī Xiōng said. You must have arrived at Yě Mǎ Town. I came from Yě Mǎ Town, how would you know that I would pass through this place? It's clear that you've been chasing me all the way."

  "Chatter, chatter, not only is your mind firm, but also your thoughts are tight. You know how to think, I must say, Laozi somewhat appreciates you. For this point alone, it can make you a clever ghost."

  "Of course, we're worlds apart and have nothing to do with each other," the Ghost Shadow Swordsman chuckled. "But you're a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and they ruined my plans and even sent an inner sect disciple to kill me. Those three together are a bit troublesome to deal with, but chasing me is really annoying. Since you're a Heavenly Sword Sect disciple, killing you will be a great way for me to vent my anger. And doing it right under their noses will be a nice little gift from me to those three."

  "So it was!"

  Xuantian smiled slightly and suddenly turned serious, saying: "You can be described in four words."

  "What?" asked the Phantom Swordsman.

  "Seeking death!" Xuan Tian said word by word, revealing a murderous intent.

  "You little brat, you're too arrogant! Originally, I had some appreciation for you and could have let you off with your life intact. Now, you've ignited my anger, and I'll make you wish you were dead, unable to live or die!"

  The swordsman's anger burst forth like a specter, his entire being suddenly surging forward with intense ferocity.

  Hurry!

  It's incredibly fast!

  A swift shadow appeared in the air, and with one breath, it darted forward by sixty or seventy meters. The speed was so fast that it was almost comparable to the black young tiger, a demonic beast that Xuan Tian had encountered in the Beast Mountain Range, which was even faster than Xuan Tian's "Dragon Tiger Step" at the Great Perfection Realm. The opponent's lightness skill was either a mid-grade Xuan rank or a lower-grade Xuan rank lightness skill that had been cultivated to the Great Round Completion Realm.
