Chapter 471: Chapter 471: Ying Family Meeting
Huang Xiaolong’s sword strikes!
This strike seems to have tapped into some ancient power hidden deep within!
This sword is incredibly fast! Fast, fast, fast!
The sword light is a capable wonder, perfectly beautiful and without any flaws!
Just one streak of light, yet it feels like ten thousand flying swords!
This streak of sword light, unlike anything earthly, leaves no signs of smoke or fire. It appears to cut across the sky, creating a vast and limitless sea of misty clouds, engulfing everything in its path.
Everyone present, including Huang Xiaolong’s opponent, Huangfu Tusun, can’t describe the brilliance and glory of this sword, nor fathom its speed.
It’s as if Huang Xiaolong is not just slashing out a sword light, but a wrathful thunder, a cataclysmic bolt of lightning.
Thud~~~~~
The sword light pierces through Huangfu Tusun’s body! Piercing his heart!
After the strike, calmness ensues.
The longsword in Huang Xiaolong’s hand, which was forged from the air itself, also disappears without a trace.
Huangfu Tusun stands still as a statue, a self-mocking smile appearing on his face. “Looks like, I was…cough cough…overly ambitious. I finally understand what it means to be an ant shaking a tree~~~”
He coughs a few times, blood spilling from his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth.
Blood seeps out from the region of his heart, staining his clothes red.
Clang~~~
The longsword in Huangfu Tusun’s hand, slipped from his grasp, falling onto the ground.
“This…this doesn’t seem like a sword technique from this world…it’s…it’s as if an Immortal is dancing with his sword…” Suddenly, a move of deep emotion appeared in Huangfu Tusun’s gradually dimming eyes. “To die under this sword, as a swordsman, is an honor…a glory…but…can you tell me, what is this sword technique?”
“Hehe~~~” Huang Xiaolong chuckles, then turns around, murmuring, “Heavenly Soaring Immortal.”
“Hea…hea…heavenly Soaring Immortal…” Huangfu Tusun’s eyes gradually close. “Indeed, this is an Immortal’s sword technique…”
Boom~~!!
Huangfu Tusun falls!
He’s dead!
This sword technique was something Huang Xiaolong had learned from an epoch-making swordsman in the land of the dead. However, Huang Xiaolong had only unleashed less than one-tenth of the technique’s true power, and it was enough to kill Huangfu Tusun in seconds.
Even after Huang Xiaolong had descended from the ring and returned to the camp of the Sun Family, the entire arena remained eerily silent.
Only after a full three minutes did an uproarious cheer erupted, along with applause and sounds of admiration.
Huang Xiaolong’s sword technique had left an indelible impression on every viewer’s mind that they will never forget!
“Master Little Long…” Sun Hu and the others bowed, their eyes all filled with shock.
Sun Wei steals a glance at Huang Xiaolong, happiness welling up in her eyes!
“Alright, I’ve taken care of your family’s enemy. There’s no point in staying for this martial arts competition any longer.” Huang Xiaolong spoke lazily.
At the same time, on the VIP stand, everyone stood up.
“It’s fascinating! Young Master Huang’s swordplay, blade techniques, martial arts, body-refining technique…an endless series of techniques, each at the pinnacle, unfathomable to even ghosts and gods,” Uncle Yun exclaimed in admiration. “When I first met Young Master Huang, I thought he was just a weak scholarly type, even looked down on him. Coming to think of it, I was utterly foolish… How could someone like me see through such a divine person with these eyes.”
Yan Pianpian’s beautiful eyes stayed fixed on Huang Xiaolong, her expression full of complex emotions. She secretly pondered, ‘I’ve witnessed his skills many times now. Today’s display of his martial prowess is not less than that of Xuanyuan Ba…and in many other aspects, Xuanyuan Ba is definitely no match for him…what kind of man is he after all?’
At this moment, everyone from the Jin Family felt like they were in a delightful surprise!
Huang Xiaolong was Old Master Jin’s master, meaning that everyone from the Jin Family was now considered Huang Xiaolong’s junior!
Such an honor! Such glory!
“Hahahaha~~Look at how great my master is, everyone! You all tried to prevent me from becoming his disciple back then… Hahahaha~~ Let’s go, let’s go greet my master!” Old Master Jin was thrilled, leading everyone from the Jin Family toward Huang Xiaolong.
“Miss…” Uncle Yun suddenly lowered his voice. “Miss, with Young Master Huang’s talents, martial arts skills, and age… if you could become his celestial partner, you would receive more recognition within our family… Young Master Huang is no less extraordinary than the top talents in the ten major families.”
“He knows Daoist magic too…” Ying Aoshan stared at Huang Xiaolong, captivated. “I’ve already made up my mind to be his woman~~Besides, our ancestor instructed it.”
After saying this, Ying Aoshan realized her slip of the tongue and quickly closed her mouth. But her face had already turned a deep red!
Luckily, her face was covered with a veil so no one could see her embarrassment.
“Oh?” Uncle Yun chuckled ambiguously. “Hahahaha~~So our Miss has already thought about this! Hahahaha~~Great, great, this is wonderful! This is the first time our Miss has been smitten by a man. But it’s no surprise, who could resist a remarkable man like Young Master Huang?”
Uncle Yun didn’t pay any attention to what Ying Aoshan’s mentioned regarding the “ancestor”.
“Oh my! Uncle Yun, stop talking!” Ying Aoshan stomped her foot in embarrassment.
“Miss, why don’t you invite Young Master Huang to attend our Ying Family’s annual gathering this year?” Uncle Yun suggested.
“Ah? The Ying family gathering?” Ying Aoshan asked, surprised. “But…but Young Master Huang isn’t part of our Ying Family. Technically, he…he can’t attend the gathering.”
“Miss, if Young Master Huang becomes our Ying Family’s son-in-law, then he can rightfully attend the gathering.” Uncle Yun’s gaze was filled with anticipation.
Over at the Xia Family’s side.
The Family Head of the Xia Family, an energetic middle-aged man with restrained energy, also an ancient martial grandmaster, was excited and trembled as he spoke. “Ying’er! You’ve had dealings with Huang Xiaolong in the past… You…You… Listen carefully now! The family commands you to get closer to Huang Xiaolong! He… he is like a treasure trove! Ancient body refinement arts, blade techniques, the True Qi mimicry of human arms in fist techniques, and that celestial-like swordsmanship… Even if our Xia Family could learn just one or half of these techniques, it would be enough to dominate the second tier of the national ancient martial arts disciples~~~~~Ying’er! At any cost, you must win Huang Xiaolong’s trust! Even if it means giving up your body, it’s worth it!”
“Family Head! You!” Xia Ying was getting annoyed.
What a fine idea, the family planned to use her as a bargaining chip, even treating her like merchandise, to exchange for some benefits from Huang Xiaolong.
However, the highly self-respecting Xia Ying couldn’t feel the slightest bit of resentment towards this command, instead, she felt a hint of joy!
‘He indeed seemed like a god… Wait a minute– He once said, my birth chart is so rigid that any ordinary man who pursues me would be doomed… I’m destined to grow old alone… But, but … he’s so strong… unimaginably strong… What if…what if… If I truly become his woman, could he possibly overcome the fate of my birth chart?’
With this thought, Xia Ying suddenly came up with a bold idea…
…
Huang Xiaolong was surrounded by a large crowd of people.
The people from the Jin Family, Ying Aoshan, Uncle Yun…
“Master, congratulations.” Old Master Jin greeted Huang Xiaolong with his hands clasped together. “Master, your mastery in ancient martial arts is truly unfathomable~~”
“Of course.” Huang Xiaolong chuckled. “Now, none of you Jin Family members regret stopping Old Master Jin from becoming my disciple back then, do you?”
The faces of the people from the Jin Family turned awkward immediately.
“Regret? Master Huang, far from regretting, we were actually eager!” Jin Mengqi spoke in her pleasing and tantalizing voice. “Master Huang, we are all your juniors, please look after us.”
“Of course, I will look after you…and everyone in the Jin Family.” Huang Xiaolong smiled at Jin Mengqi, whose heart fluttered and whose face turned red instantly. She immediately lowered her head.
At this point, under Uncle Yun’s encouragement, Ying Aoshan gathered her courage and said to Huang Xiaolong, “Young Master Huang, could I have a word with you aside?”
“What’s the matter?” Huang Xiaolong walked over to her with a smile.
“Young Master Huang…this year…would you… accompany me back to…to attend…the Ying Family gathering…” Ying Aoshan’s voice was barely audible but her eyes, full of expectation and hope, were sparkling brightly…
