Chu Xisheng heard the shouts from the foot of the mountain, and instead of being shocked, he was delighted.
It seems his 'Heart of Chaos' has hope again.
Chu Xisheng's information is never blocked.
The Sky Listening Institute of the Formless Divine Sect organizes all sorts of Jianghu rumors and intelligence related to him every ten days, plus any major worldly events, for Chu Xisheng to review.
Chu Xisheng's own Iron Banner Gang is now also a reliable source of information.
As the Iron Banner Gang's power continued to grow, its Internal Affairs Hall became highly perceptive.
Especially in the area near East State, there is almost no information the Iron Banner Gang cannot uncover.
Chu Xisheng had long heard of that 'God Demon Saber Lord' Wan Jiansheng.
He knew this person was sweeping through the young heroes of the world, even the three Qingyun Heavenly Monarchs, who were renowned alongside Chu Xisheng, had successively lost to this person.
Chu Xisheng knew Wan Jiansheng would eventually come looking for him, but he awaited this person like hoping for sweet rain.
He sees this as his only opportunity to exchange for the 'Heart of Chaos'.
If it weren't for Li Changsheng placing a restraining order, strictly forbidding him to go out alone without a guard, Chu Xisheng would have long gone to meet Wan Jiansheng.
Chu Xisheng did not expect this person to arrive so quickly.
He was almost in despair before.
This person has a bad habit; wherever he goes, he sweeps through, accepting all challenges. He must suppress the young heroes of that region before moving on.
With Wan Jiansheng's turtle-like speed, when would he be able to reach Formless Divine Sect?
Unexpectedly, this person came so quickly.
Chu Xisheng immediately forgot about the barrel of water, hand on his blade, and excitedly walked out.
But just as he was about to step out of the room, Chu Yunyun suddenly spoke: "Brother, when you later engage in combat with Wan Jiansheng, make sure to use all your might to destroy him!"
Chu Xisheng couldn't help but make a sound of 'Hmm', then turned to look at Chu Yunyun.
Although the girl's voice was calm, it contained an incredibly fierce chill.
"I will do my best!" he agreed resolutely, then curiously asked, "Yunyun, do you have a grudge with the Divine Blade Sect? Did they also once participate in hunting you down?"
Chu Xisheng rarely heard Chu Yunyun harbor such a strong malice toward someone.
Especially Wan Jiansheng, who was a young man with whom they had no interactions.
No past enmity, no present grievances.
Chu Xisheng thought there must be some reason.
"I don't know if he participated in the encirclement, and there is no evidence. I only suspect that among the three First Grade masters at the time, one was 'Demon Flow Saber King' Zhuang Yan. This person concealed his identity and did not use his usual Magic Artifact, but I still glimpsed a bit of his foundation in limited exchanges."
Chu Yunyun shook her head, her voice still without fluctuations: "The only certainty is that even if the Divine Blade Sect is not our enemy, they will not become our friend. God Demon Saber Lord Wan Jiansheng is likely the 'Sword Bearer' this generation of Divine Blade Sect has carefully nurtured. After his debut, he challenges the young heroes of the world, and the purpose is definitely not just for training. Therefore–"
Chu Yunyun's gaze was cold and resolute, as indifferent as ice: "Destroy his Dao Heart!"
Chu Xisheng raised an eyebrow, and then strode out of the pavilion.
At their level, what need is there for solid evidence?
Chu Yunyun's suspicion and perception are enough.
Chu Xisheng just embarked on his sword boat, flew into the void off the mountaintop, and heard Wan Jiansheng's somewhat hoarse voice transmitted from the foot of the mountain again.
"I am Wan Jiansheng, today I come especially to seek pointers on Sword Skill from Infinite Blade Lord Chu Xisheng, to validate Martial Arts! May I ask if Brother Chu is here? If so, show yourself and respond. Whether to battle or not, one word can decide!"
Wan Jiansheng's words, though similar to before, clearly carried a bit more impatience.
Chu Xisheng pressed the sword boat down, diving towards the mountainside.
On the way, he encountered Fang Bu Yuan, Zong Sanping, and Jian Cangfeng, among others.
Fang Bu Yuan waved with a smile: "Junior Brother Chu is preparing to meet the challenge? Make sure to win cleanly, my daily cultivation expenses for the years to come depend entirely on you."
Chu Xisheng glanced at him and suddenly paused.
Wasn't this guy supposed to leave Formless Divine Mountain to advance to Fourth Grade?
No!
He has already advanced, so quickly!
Chu Xisheng's lips twitched, also feeling curious: "Have you opened a betting market for me again? What are my odds?"
Fang Bu Yuan touched the bridge of his nose, his eyes full of pride: "Your odds are much higher than his, about five to one. Few people bet on you winning, mostly members of our sect. The Jianghu people outside still favor Wan Jiansheng, with odds as low as one point five to one and still able to attract funds."
Since you drew with Purple Eyebrow Heavenly Monarch, you haven't been in the spotlight, underestimated by others. They still see you as you were months ago. However, some well-informed Jianghu people know you killed a Second Grade Martial Cultivator at Cloud Sea Immortal Palace and placed adventurous bets. Among them, most bet on you drawing with him, or winning after a tough battle. Something like three thousand rounds, enduring for an hour, there are quite a few."
Fang Bu Yuan then shook his head with regret: "What a pity, I returned too late, and Wan Jiansheng came too fast, couldn't attract much stake."
The battle between Wan Jiansheng and Chu Xisheng was destined to happen.
After Fang Bu Yuan advanced to Fourth Grade, he hurried back to the mountain to set up a betting bureau.
Unfortunately, it was still too late, as even the sect's own Finance Bureau secretly seized the business, taking the lion's share.
