Legendary Armament Canon

Chapter 105: Those Who Hurt Others Behind Their Back Are Not Worthy of Using Sabers

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Shu was jumping as the sound of whistling wind rang out.

He shuttled through the forest like a Tarzan. Although his posture was not considered graceful, he was extremely fast.

Furthermore, he felt as if he was flying as he moved forward.

In his previous life, he had seen the movie ‘Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon’, in which there was a scene of a battle in a bamboo forest that left a deep impression on him.

His current actions were similar to the battle in the bamboo forest. He could fly far away with leverage from the tree branches.

This feeling of being as fast as lightning was simply irresistible.

If the Golden Bell Shield Technique broke through to the eleventh level, would his movement technique be as light as a feather? Would he be able to run on the waves without falling? What would this feel like?

Just as Zhou Shu was feeling the wind, he suddenly turned around subconsciously.

What he saw shocked him. He missed his footing and fell from the sky.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Countless branches were broken as Zhou Shu landed heavily on the ground.

He got up with his face covered in dirt, and his clothes were torn.

Fortunately, his Golden Bell Shield Technique had already broken through to the eighth level. Otherwise, he would have suffered some light injuries no matter what.

Zhou Shu looked behind him through the dense forest.

Through the gaps in the leaves, he could already see a figure rapidly approaching.

On the ground, a rumbling sound resounded not far away. It was as if an elephant was running. The ground was trembling slightly, and the birds and beasts were fleeing frantically.

What’s the meaning of this??Zhou Shu was somewhat speechless.

Didn’t I leave behind Zhu Chuanfeng’s and Zhu Chuanzhi’s corpses for them?

Why are they still coming after me?

Speaking of which, how can Yin Wuyou fly? Isn’t her cultivation level only at the third rank of the Martial Dao.

Has she been concealing her cultivation too?

It wasn’t that Zhou Shu hadn’t seen Yin Wuyou before. But before this, he had always thought that Yin Wuyou’s cultivation was only at the sixth or seventh rank.

From the looks of it, Yin Wuyou must have cultivated a technique to conceal her aura, or perhaps she had some divine artifact to conceal her aura.

She was about the same age as him in this world, yet she was already a third-rank martial artist.

How impressive,?Zhou Shu praised in his heart.

As he thought about this, he quickly took off his clothes and put them back on inside out. Then he tore off a piece of his shirt to cover his face.

He couldn’t let Yin Wuyou and the others see his face.

If they saw him, he wouldn’t be able to explain the deaths of the Zhu brothers. He couldn’t possibly tell them he was the one who killed them.

It wasn’t a big deal that they were dead, but the problem was that their cultivation levels were at the fourth and sixth ranks.

How could a mere Forging Apprentice kill them?

He had already exposed his cultivation level in front of the Zhu brothers. He couldn’t expose himself in front of Yin Wuyou and the others.

Zhou Shu had just finished dressing up when Yin Wuyou descended from the sky. The few and Fiend Eradication Army lieutenants had also appeared in Zhou Shu’s field of vision and were rapidly approaching him.

Yin Wuyou descended from the sky, and the tip of her foot lightly stepped on a branch thirty feet away from the ground.

Her gaze fell on the Autumn Anatidae Plume Saber in Zhou Shu’s hand, and her expression changed slightly.

“Your Excellency, may I ask if Zhu Chuanfeng died under your hands?” Yin Wuyou cupped her hands.

The few officers had already rushed over and stopped several feet away from Zhou Shu. When they heard Yin Wuyou’s words, all of them looked vigilant, and they faintly released their auras.

Zhou Shu stood tall and straight, carrying the sheathed Autumn Anatidae Plume Saber on his shoulder. He said somewhat carelessly, “So what if I did? So what I didn’t?

“Could it be that you all want to avenge him?”

Although he didn’t make any movements, the Autumn Anatidae Plume Saber on his shoulder suddenly let out a clang, and an incomparably sharp saber intent soared into the sky.

It was clearly just a standard saber. But in the eyes of Yin Wuyou and the other Fiend Eradication Army lieutenants, the Autumn Anatidae Plume Saber seemed to have turned into a spiritual weapon that was emitting an intense battle intent!

“What a powerful saber intent!”

The Fiend Eradication Army lieutenants couldn’t help taking half a step back. With a clang, they unsheathed their weapons and got into ready stances.

A strange light flashed in Yin Wuyou’s eyes, but her expression didn’t change as she solemnly said, “Zhu Chuanfeng is a criminal of our Great Xia. If he was killed by you, then our Great Xia owes you a favor.

“If Zhu Chuanfeng died at your hands, then I have a question for you. Zhu Chuanfeng held one of us hostage before. Have you seen him?”

Zhou Shu’s heart stirred.?The person Yin Wuyou is talking about is me?

It seems so. Wasn’t it me who Zhu Chuanfeng held hostage?

But how should I answer her question?

Tell her that the person Zhu Chuanfeng held hostage was me?

Wouldn’t I be exposing myself?

“I didn’t see him,” Zhou Shu said.

“Alright, I’m leaving. Stop following me.” Zhou Shu turned around and lifted his leg.

“Wait!” Yin Wuyou shouted. “Your Excellency, the one Zhu Chuanfeng held hostage is an official of the Great Xia Imperial Court. Please tell me the truth. Is he dead or alive?!”

A workshop superintendent can also be considered an imperial official?

Alright, a ninth-rank official is also an official.

Zhou Shu turned back to glance at Yin Wuyou. “I’ll say it again. I didn’t see him, so I don’t know.”

Zhou Shu only wanted to leave as soon as possible. Yin Wuyou knew him. If he spent too much time with her, she might find out his true identity.

After speaking, Zhou Shu prepared to leave.

He hadn’t even taken a single step when the sound of rushing wind rang out. Yin Wuyou somersaulted and landed in front of Zhou Shu.

At some point, an unsheathed sword appeared in her hand, its tip pointing at Zhou Shu.

Almost at the same time, a few quick-witted Fiend Eradication Army lieutenants were already standing at the four corners of the battlefield, completely blocking off Zhou Shu’s escape route.

Even though they were unwilling to make a move and felt that there was no need for them to do so, since the princess had made a move, they definitely couldn’t sit by idly.

“What is the meaning of this? Did I violate some law of Great Xia?” Zhou Shu narrowed his eyes coldly. “You want to fight me?”

The saber intent he had just restrained exploded once again. The fierce saber intent blew in all directions like a hurricane.

There was a crackling sound in the woods as countless leaves fell.

Yin Wuyou’s heart turned cold.?Such saber intent—this person’s cultivation is probably above mine!

Since such an expert didn’t have any obvious hostility toward Great Xia, Logically speaking, she shouldn’t have used force on him.

No matter what, killing Zhu Chuanfeng had helped the Grand Xia Imperial Court.

Although Zhu Chuanfeng’s death was troublesome, it was still better than him escaping Great Xia alive.

But now, no matter what, Yin Wuyou couldn’t let him leave just like that!

“I don’t want to fight you.” Yin Wuyou shook her head seriously. “I just want to ask you to wait!

“As long as you tell me the whereabouts of the person Zhu Chuanfeng held hostage, I will immediately move aside!”

Yin Wuyou had a determined look on her face. If she couldn’t get the information she wanted, she definitely wouldn’t give way.

Zhou Shu had a strange feeling in his heart, but he still said coldly on the surface, “Do you really think that you all will be able to stop me?”

“Your cultivation is unfathomable. I might not be your match,” Yin Wuyou said solemnly. “But I think it’s still possible to stop you for a while.”

They were not fighting alone. This place wasn’t far from the capital. As long as they persisted for a period of time, reinforcements would naturally arrive.

“Little girl, it’s good to be confident. But it’s not a good thing to be overconfident.” Zhou Shu laughed. “To have such cultivation at such a young age, it seems like you haven’t suffered any setbacks.

“Today, I shall teach you the principles of life.

“If you don’t suffer a little, you won’t grow up.”

Zhou Shu laughed wildly at the sky with an arrogant expression. He took a step forward, and the Autumn Anatidae Plume Saber on his shoulder followed an incomparably profound trajectory as it slashed forward.

Yin Wuyou didn’t panic. She had been completely focused on waiting. When she saw Zhou Shu’s saber slashing at her, she flicked her wrist, and the sword in her hand slanted upward.

The Autumn Anatidae Plume Saber was just a standard weapon, but the sword in her hand was an earth-grade weapon.

Yin Wuyou was confident that as long as their weapons collided, even if her opponent’s cultivation was on par with her, her sword would break the Autumn Anatidae Plume Saber.

Just as the two weapons were about to collide, Zhou Shu’s body suddenly swayed, and the blade of his saber sliced toward Yin Wuyou’s finger. Not only did he avoid the blade, but he also counterattacked.

Yin Wuyou raised her brows, took half a step back, and executed her sword technique.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them exchanged several moves. These moves were as fast as lightning, but the two weapons didn’t collide at all.

After several moves, Zhou Shu took three steps forward, while Yin Wuyou took three steps back.

The few lieutenants didn’t have time to help Yin Wuyou at all. In fact, they knew that even if they did, they wouldn’t be able to help Yin Wuyou.

Yin Wuyou was a third-rank Grandmaster, yet she was at a disadvantage. The strongest among them was only a fifth-rank martial artist. How could they help?

“Little girl, how do you feel?” Zhou Shu laughed hoarsely. He used his inner strength to change the muscles of his vocal cords and pretended to sound old.

“If you don’t move away, I am going to get serious. At that time, I’m afraid that you won’t be able to withstand it.”

Yin Wuyou’s expression was solemn. She now knew that she was no match for this person. The other party was just using a standard weapon, but he was able to suppress her to the point where she couldn’t fight back. His cultivation level was definitely far above hers.

However…

Yin Wuyou pursed her lips and said stubbornly, “Your Excellency, please tell me the whereabouts of the person Zhu Chuanfeng kidnapped!”

She held her sword vertically in front of her, her expression resolute.

Zhou Shu’s heart skipped a beat.?Is Yin Wuyou going all out just to find out my whereabouts?

Am I worth her doing this for me?

I’m merely the superintendent of a small workshop. Doesn’t she know that she might get hurt if she doesn’t move away?

Zhou Shu narrowed his eyes. Suddenly, he charged forward.

Yin Wuyou raised an eyebrow.?This person wants to go around me directly?

Yin Wuyou didn’t hesitate when she saw Zhou Shu attempt to go around her. She turned her sword around and stabbed toward Zhou Shu’s exposed back.

Clank!

Two crisp sounds rang out almost at the same time, as if they had become the same sound.

Yin Wuyou only felt a strong force coming toward her, and she stumbled back several steps. Her arm was numb, and she almost couldn’t hold the sword in her hand.

She was shocked, and she didn’t know what was going on.

When she looked up, she saw that the mysterious expert who had suppressed her to the point where she couldn’t fight back was surrounded by a layer of faint golden light, as if a god had descended to the mortal world.

In front of him, a figure shrouded in a black robe had appeared out of nowhere.

This black-robed figure held a pitch-black dagger in his hand. The edge of the dagger was also pitch-black, which looked extremely strange.

Looking at the position of the black-robed figure and thinking back to where she had just stood, Yin Wuyou instantly understood what was going on.

The black-robed figure had wanted to ambush her from behind just now, and the mysterious expert had rushed forward to save her!

He saved me, but I stabbed him!?Yin Wuyou was flustered. On the one hand, she was worried about Zhou Shu’s safety, and on the other hand, she felt guilty toward this mysterious expert.

In her chaotic state of mind, Yin Wuyou didn’t notice that under the faint golden light, there were only a few traces of blood where she stabbed, and the wound had already healed.

“Who are you? Are you from Great Wei?” An ethereal voice sounded from the black-robed figure’s mouth.

Zhou Shu narrowed his eyes and stared coldly at the other party. “I should be the one asking you this. What kind of man sneaks up on a woman behind her back?”

“The kind of man who has the ability to kill others.” The black-robed figure laughed coldly. “Although I don’t know who you are, you’re not my target. You can leave. I won’t kill you.”

“You won’t kill me?” Zhou Shu threw his head back and laughed. “You are hiding your identity so sneakily. If you want to kill me, you need to have the ability to do so!”

“Are you even qualified to say that I’m hiding my identity?” The black-robed figure mocked.

Zhou Shu: “…”

Alright, he had forgotten that he was also masked.

It doesn’t matter. Even if my face is covered, I am still stronger than you!

“Those who hurt others behind their backs are not fit to use sabers!” Zhou Shu said coldly.

He slowly raised the Autumn Anatidae Plume Saber in his hand as his saber intent soared into the sky.

“Little girl, leave first. Don’t get in my way!”

Zhou Shu took a heavy step forward, and the ground began to tremble violently.

In everyone’s eyes, Zhou Shu seemed to have become a blade. Endless qi gathered on his body, and even the stars and moon in the sky seemed to pale in comparison.

“Your Excellency—”

“That Zhou kid is fine. Get going!” Zhou Shu said loudly. Along with his saber, he slashed at the black-robed figure.

Yin Wuyou’s expression changed.

“You guys go first—” Before Yin Wuyou could say, ‘I’ll stay and help’.

Zhou Shu shouted, “We can’t fight to our heart’s content with irrelevant people here. Let’s fight somewhere else!”

The black-robed figure’s pupils constricted as if he’d thought of something, and he nodded. “Great minds think alike!”

With a tap of his foot, he rose into the air.

Zhou Shu also leaped onto a large tree.

Just as Yin Wuyou was about to give chase, a saber beam descended from the sky and blocked her path.. When she returned to her original spot, Zhou Shu and the black-robed figure had already disappeared.
