Chapter Ten: The Dark Shadow Outside the Window

  The courtyard of General Murong's mansion was majestic, but it looked extremely cold and quiet, with hardly any human voices heard anywhere.

  Shen Du still had injuries on his body, and this quiet environment was the best. He put down the giant sword, sat cross-legged on the bed, joined his hands together, closed his eyes, and began to concentrate, silently reciting the incantation in his heart.

  Before long, Shen Du's face gradually became rosy, and the sword in his palms faintly emitted an orange glow.

  It wasn't until about five or six hours later that he slowly opened his eyes.

  "Ah!" He let out a long sigh, muttering to himself: "Good job, Murong Ling, almost gave away that I've already broken through the Sword Master's barrier. If it was that easy to reveal my hand, it'll be tough to mix in later." As he spoke, his elegant face revealed a look of satisfaction and admiration as he gazed at his own pair of seemingly delicate hands, and muttered again: "Who would have thought that these tender hands hold an unbeatable Iron Arm?"

  Thinking so, he happily got out of bed and was about to stretch his waist and stretch his muscles when he saw a rapid flash of black shadow outside the window.

  "Who is it!" Shen Du shouted loudly, drawing his sword and chasing after him tightly. The Eagle King Sword, which weighed ten thousand catties, was as light as an ordinary iron sword in his hand.

  He followed out, only to see that the man in white clothes was standing on the carved top of the Murong Mansion, as if waiting for Shen Dou to catch up. When he saw Shen Dou, he flew up and flew towards the Imperial Palace.

  "That's not the direction of the Imperial Palace!" Shen Du furrowed his brow and said, "Who is this person after all!"

  In terms of figure, he thought of Shen Gang, also wearing a white robe fluttering in the wind, with a head of flowing long hair, medium build, but with a robust physique.

  But his speed was far beyond Shen Gang's, even if Shen had used the Sword Master's speed, he still couldn't catch up with him.

  She changed her mind and thought, "Why should I chase after him!" With that in mind, Shen stopped on a high platform.

  The high platform was empty and desolate, with nothing in sight, and the entire city of death could be seen clearly. It was as if standing at the top of the high mountain outside the city of death, the autumn wind whistled, lifting the hem of the city's clothes, making a "whooshing" sound.

  That person saw Shen stop and also stopped to listen, standing on another high platform opposite.

  Shen Du only then noticed that the City of Death had so many high platforms, and they were all empty. He couldn't help but think, what was the purpose of these platforms?

  No time to think, that person turned around, holding a cyan long sword in his hand, but on his face was a pure white mask, covering up his true appearance.

  "Who are you exactly!" Shen Du asked curiously. More and faster chapters, please go to.

  "Ah, young one, want to know who I am? Hand over the Shenmen Fifteen Swords manual you're holding, or else don't even think about it!" The man's voice was somewhat hoarse and he said indifferently.

  Shen Du was shocked by his words and thought to himself: How did he know that I have the sword manual of Shenmen's Fifteen Swords? Who is he, after all.

  "What else are you thinking about? Can you really protect the Shen family's sword manual just by yourself? As long as you hand over the sword manual, I guarantee that your life will be spared."

  Shen Dou carefully distinguished the man's voice, yet it was so unfamiliar, but he felt that the voice seemed to be disguising something, and he wondered what he was hiding.

  Shen had been silent all along, and the man was getting impatient. He shouted loudly: "Are you not shedding tears until you see a coffin?" As he spoke, he slowly drew out the long sword in his hand. Although the sword body was green, the light it emitted was orange.

  "Hey, looks like you're a swordsman!" Shen Da let out a sigh of relief and said: "Hey, you think too much. Although I don't know who you are or how you knew my identity, I'll tell you one thing - there's nothing on me that you can take away."

  That man snorted coldly and said, "Is that so? Then let's try my sword!" As he spoke, his long sword quivered and moved with him, continuing to shoot towards Shendu.

  As the man was about to reach him, Shen Du coldly smiled and slowly raised the Eagle King Sword. With both hands tightly gripping the hilt, his iron arm exerted its full strength, using the sword body to strike with force.

  That ten-thousand jin giant sword, under the swing of Shen Du's iron arms, had an unknown powerful force. When it came into contact with the long sword in that person's hand, it emitted a low humming sound "Silk Silk!", and then a flash of flames appeared, followed by a loud "Clang!" sound. That person's long sword was shaken into four or five pieces, and fresh blood flowed from their arm.

  "Just this little skill, and you still want to come and take the sword spectrum!" Shen Du sneered, the Eagle King Sword was already placed on that person's neck, with a weight of 10,000 jin pressing down, making it hard for him to breathe. More chapters please visit.

  "No! Wait!" The man knelt down on one leg, finally unable to bear it, and quickly removed his mask.

  At the moment he saw that person's true appearance, Shen Du was so excited that he almost cried out loud, his eyes welled up with tears, sheathed his giant sword and helped the man up, "Big brother, it's really you!"

  I didn't expect this person to be Shen Gang.

  That long-lost national character face, the bright and spirited eyes were also staring at Shen Du with surprise.

  "Yes, it's me! I never thought that you would have such terrifying powers now!" Shen Gang excitedly clenched his fist and slammed it onto Shen Dou's chest.

  "Ah!" Shen Du cried out in dismay, "You're actually serious?!"

  "Haha, is this how you greet your elder brother? I must teach you a lesson!" With that, he kicked Shen Dou's abdomen again.

  Shen Dou didn't dodge either and heard another miserable cry, "Ah!" as he fell from the high platform.

  Shen Gang chased after him, raised his fist and was about to strike, but saw Shen Dou's face reveal a sly smile: "Hey, big brother, you've had enough, I've already let you have one punch and one kick, if you come again, I won't be polite."

  But Shen Gang didn't listen to him at all, and with a forceful punch, he hit Shen Dou's nose squarely.

  Nosebleed immediately flowed out, and the person had already fallen to the ground with a "boom!"

  The Eagle King Sword weighed over 10,000 jin, and with Shen Gang's heavy punch, the ground was smashed deep into a pit of over seven feet.

  Shen Gang lightly landed on the ground, and Shen Dou let out a loud shout, "Youngster, since you're older than me by several months, I'll call you Big Brother. Since you're so unkind, I'll respect you as my Big Brother, and I've been yielding to you everywhere. But now that you're being so unkind, don't blame my fists for not recognizing anyone!" As he spoke, he was about to throw a punch.

  But then Shen Gang's face lit up with a smile, and he walked up to Shen Dou, embracing him in his arms. He seemed excited as he said: "My good brother, it's been far too long since we last met! Today, seeing you so full of life and energy, I, as your older brother, truly feel delighted!"

  Shen Dou only then discovered that all around were full of people, probably all taking them as a show.

  "Haha, yeah yeah, big brother you're not bad either!" Shen Du said with his mouth, using all his strength to hug Shen Gang tightly.

  "Yah ha!" Shen Gang immediately felt short of breath and tight in the chest. "Alright, alright, let's stop while we're ahead!"

  Shen Du heard this and smiled, whispering in Shen Gang's ear: "Let's go back first and talk about it later."

  As he spoke, Shen Du picked up the Eagle King Sword and walked with Shen Gang towards General Murong's mansion.

  They arrived at General Murong's mansion and immediately found Shen Yuxi.

  Shen Yu Xi was equally shocked by the person in front of her, "You, big brother, how did you escape?" Shen Yu Xi said with tears in her eyes.

  "This is a long story, on that day, Grandfather used his spiritual transmission technique to inform all the members of the Shen family to fight against the Great Sword Sect with their lives, only thinking about escorting you two away. At that time, I didn't know the reason behind it and was still blaming Grandfather for being biased. Now it seems that Grandfather had a good reason for doing so. As for how I escaped, it's even more strange. On that day, Grandfather had already been killed by Lou Fang's sword energy, with only less than ten people from the Shen family still alive. Just as we were all rushing towards Lou Fang together, a black shadow flashed by quickly and took me and Shen Yao away." Shen Gang recalled the scene of that day, his face sometimes joyful, sometimes worried.

  "Black shadow?" Shendu suddenly thought of the black shadow they saw that day and immediately understood something.

  "He covered his face, rescued me and then said to me, 'Let me take you to the capital of death, and then he took Shen Yao away, saying that he would do his best to save Shen Yao.' Shen continued to recall, and then added: 'From his voice, it was very similar to that old servant who served you.'"

  "Old Gu!" Shen Du was shocked, "Why did he want to save you?"

  "I don't know about this," Shen Gang said, looking tired.

  Shen Yu Xi immediately sensed it and said: "Big brother, you should go rest first, whatever it is, we can talk about it later."

  "Hmm!" Shen Gang looked at Shen Yu Xi with gratitude and followed Shen back to their room to rest.

  "On the road, he asked again: "Shen Du, what's your next plan?"

  Shen Du heard this and said in a low voice, "Alas! This world is really not simple. Just looking at the merchants selling treasures in the city, you can see how important gold coins are to a swordsman. From now on, I'm thinking about how to get more money. Only by having more gold coins can our Shen family possibly revive."
