Chapter 248 Sword Servant
Upon seeing this, Shan Tianxie unconsciously curled up the corners of his mouth slightly, giving off an expression of complete confidence.
He knew that Duan Tianya would definitely not be able to resist this temptation; he was a romantic like his godfather!
However, this also makes it easier for him to state his conditions.
Just as Shan Tianxie was about to express his thoughts, a clear voice came from the side.
"I wonder what Young Master Shan needs my elder brother to do in order to be lenient and let Miss Piaoxu go?"
Dan Tianxie raised an eyebrow and looked up. The person who spoke was none other than Shangguan Haitang.
Shangguan Haitang noticed Shan Tianxie's gaze, and a bitter smile appeared on his originally handsome face. He was secretly lamenting his misfortune.
She didn't want to interfere if there were any other possibilities.
But it seems that Brother Duan, who used to be so clever and resourceful, has been making one foolish move after another ever since he met Miss Piaoxu!
Completely lacking his usual composure, from the start of the bet until now, he has been led by the nose by his opponent at every step.
She figured if she didn't say anything, the other party might sell her to Brother Duan, and Brother Duan would have to thank her.
"It's very simple."
After looking Shangguan Haitang up and down, Shan Tianxie smiled and said.
"I've always wanted to gather four sword attendants, but I haven't been able to find suitable candidates."
However, I recently saw Miss Haitang and thought she was very suitable. I just don't know what Miss Haitang thinks?
Indeed, the reason he was willing to let Liu Sheng Piaoxu go for now was naturally because he had other ideas, namely, he had his eye on Shangguan Haitang!
They kept talking about sword servants, sword servants...
But so far, the Sword Servant team only has Xiyu, who is not only pitiful and lonely, but also doesn't have any prestige.
Shangguan Haitang is not only a spy for the Dragon Guard Manor, but also the owner of the number one manor in the world.
I wonder how many martial arts secrets she knows. Just now, Gu Santong's move clearly showed that Shangguan Haitang knew something about it.
Whether considering its background or its practicality, it is the best choice.
Now that they've delivered themselves to our doorstep, they think they can just leave? Not so easy!
"Young Master Shan, are you really trying to make things difficult for my Dragon Guard Manor by making such a request?"
Upon hearing this, before Shangguan Haitang could even express her opinion, Duan Tianya could no longer remain calm.
He stared solemnly at Shan Tianxie, gripping the long, narrow katana at his waist with a reverse grip, looking as if he might strike at any moment.
Even if he was no match for the people from Bliss Valley, he would never agree to such an absurd condition!
"Dragon Guard Manor? People of that old pig?"
Gu Santong, who was standing to the side, murmured to himself when he heard the words "Guardian Dragon Manor".
At the same time, a look of realization flashed in his eyes. No wonder Shan Tianxie was targeting these people so much; they were Old Pig's men!
Think of the talent that Old Pig carefully cultivated, only to have it used as a sword servant.
I wonder what kind of expression the old pig would have if he saw this scene.
Gu Santong couldn't help but chuckle to himself, and he couldn't wait to see the old pig's expression.
"make life difficult for?"
Dan Tianxie raised an eyebrow and a cold smile appeared on his lips.
"What? One person for another, such a fair trade, does Master Duan feel he's been taken advantage of?"
"Since Master Duan refuses this deal, then I will accept Liu Sheng Piaoxu's life!"
"you!"
Upon hearing this, Duan Tianya disregarded all else and put Liu Sheng Piaoxu aside.
Then, with a crisp clang, the samurai sword in his hand was instantly drawn from its sheath!
The next moment, the narrow katana flashed with a chilling light, then darted through the water like a nimble fish.
The blade passed without making a sound, yet the endless blade light was already pressing straight towards Shan Tianxie.
At this moment, Duan Tianya, in a fit of rage, unleashed the full power of the "Phantom Sword" sword technique he had painstakingly learned in Japan.
At that moment, it was as if thousands of longswords were thrusting simultaneously, and layers upon layers of afterimages concealed Duan Tianya's samurai sword within them.
But if you think the illusion is fake and let your guard down, you will be stabbed by a sword the next moment and bleed on the spot.
Seeing this, Shan Tianxie remained calm and composed, standing there without making any move to defend himself.
"Hmph, the martial arts world of the Central Plains has so many profound martial arts techniques to learn, but instead they learn these flashy tricks."
Gu Santong stood to the side, a slightly mocking smirk playing on his lips.
In his eyes, Duan Tianya's swordsmanship, though seemingly intimidating, was actually quite powerful.
In reality, they are all show and no substance; once they encounter a true master, their true colors will be revealed immediately.
I don't know what Old Pig was thinking. Why didn't he personally teach these people martial arts? Was he holding back a secret technique?
Interesting. Just like before, you're so cunning that it's hard to fathom your intentions!
Just as the sky full of sword light was about to approach Shan Tianxie, Gu Santong smiled indifferently, and suddenly stretched out his right hand, seemingly casually pushing out a palm.
He didn't even use one-tenth of his strength in that palm strike; otherwise, he might have accidentally killed Duan Tianya with a single slap.
Duan Tianya's death is a minor matter, but didn't Shan Tianxie win that bet for nothing?
Based on his understanding of Shan Tianxie, there must be something quite sinister behind that bet.
Although Gu Santong didn't even use one-tenth of his strength in this palm strike, its power was still astonishing!
Rumble!
With this palm strike, the entire space seemed to be violently pushed backward by an incomparably powerful force.
The raging, chaotic energy swept past, emitting a mournful sound like the wailing of ghosts and wolves.
Duan Tianya's endless illusions of sword light were crushed like paper by this casual palm strike, vanishing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Duan Tianya's expression changed drastically. Only now did he realize what a despairing opponent Yagyu Tajima-no-Kami had faced!
No wonder even a martial arts master couldn't muster the will to resist.
Under such a powerful palm strike, Duan Tianya panicked and only had time to hastily hold the long sword that was thrusting straight forward in front of his chest in an attempt to block it.
boom!
The katana held horizontally in front of his chest snapped under the weight, and Duan Tianya, struck as if by lightning, coughed up blood and tumbled through the air.
It was sent flying several meters away, finally coming to a stop after crashing hard against the top of the courtyard wall.
"Big brother!"
"Brother Duan!"
Shangguan Haitang and Liu Sheng Piaoxu exclaimed in surprise almost simultaneously, then rushed towards Duan Tianya's location and helped the pale-faced Duan Tianya up.
"Don't worry, he won't die. I only used half of my strength."
Seeing this, Gu Santong grinned and said nonchalantly.
Shangguan Haitang did not speak, but after feeding Duan Tianya the healing medicine, she turned to Shan Tianxie and spoke calmly.
"I promise to let them go!"
