Chapter 154: Impersonating the No.1 Martial Expert of the World!

However, for Yang Dingtian, there was a much more important purpose of the heaven and earth mystic flame. That was to forge the young sword into a true soul sword and also to cultivate the sword soul. In the latter stage, when he needed to cleanse his meridians, he would also require the heaven and earth mystic flame.

In other words, without the heaven and earth mystic flame, it would just be a pipedream for Yang Dingtian to take back Cloud Heaven City.

Without the heaven and earth mystic flame, all of the Yang Dingtian’s missions could be disregarded.

But these heaven and earth mystic flames were extremely rare.

Just that peak grade coal-seam fire, which was located in the Fire Cloud Devil Cave, required a radius of a thousand miles of soil to produce one. As for heaven and earth mystic flame, it would require at least ten thousand miles of soil to produce one.

Whenever there was a leak of information about a heaven and earth mystic flame, the entire Primal Chaos World would be in a complete frenzy. The Yin Yang Sect, Mystic Heaven Sect, and even the Hidden Sect would turn out in full strength. They would fight over it regardless of the price and number of dead bodies.

****************************************

Yang Dingtian had slightly cooled down and involuntarily concerned again. Was this map in his hands the map to a heaven and earth mystic flame? Would such a precious item fall into his hands so easily?

But if it were obtained from the possessions of that devil Li Tianxiao, it must be precious, right? He must have earned great karma for saving Ning Rou’er and her daughter. Hence he obtained such a great reward.

A pity that he couldn’t recognize the wordings on it, otherwise he would be able to ascertain if this were the map to a heaven and earth mystic flame.

A pity that his master, Dongfang Niemie, had yet to awaken, otherwise, he would be able to read these wordings.

Yang Dingtian looked at this map for a moment longer and found out that he couldn’t understand anything written on it. He had no choice but to calm down his emotional feelings and his boiling blood. After all, the most important matter right now was to forge the soul sword in the Fire Cloud Devil Cave since the soul sword was the most crucial item for himself to have a stronger foundation.

After storing the map into the spatial ring, Yang Dingtian took a deep breath before he headed over to the unconscious Dugu Fengwu.

He first made sure that she was still alive and unconscious. Subsequently, he had to leave her on this deserted island and row his boat away and towards the Fire Cloud Devil Cave as fast as he could. Otherwise, when she would wake up and regain her formidable strength, he wouldn’t be able to leave anymore.

******************************************

Dugu Fengwu was still unconscious like a sleeping beauty, whose gorgeous face was pale and devoid of the color of blood.

Yang Dingtian carried her up and found a rather secluded place to hide her.

“I am leaving. The rest is up to your own fate,” said Yang Dingtian, as he was about to walk over to the small boat.

But when he was half his way to the boat, he couldn’t help but turn back because he realized that Dugu Fengwu’s wound was bleeding again.

If she were a regular woman and this wound continued to worsen, she would probably die.

Yang Dingtian took a deep breath and came back. He crouched down beside her and undid her clothes to check her wound.

Yang Dingtian’s sword had pierced her right chest, leaving a three or four inches deep and one-inch long wound.

Yang Dingtian took out a superior elixir to gently rub over her wound. During this process, his palm would inevitably make contact with her tender skin, causing him to shift his gaze away unnaturally.

Ningning’s elixirs were exceptionally effective. After rubbing it over her wound, it had immediately stopped the bleeding.

Immediately after, Yang Dingtian took out the Silk Snow Brocade from Dugu Fengwu’s waist and drew out a few strands. He then took out a thin needle from the spatial ring.

After threading the needle, Yang Dingtian slowly stitched up Dugu Fengwu’s wound.

This rare silk was very thin, and when stitched on wounds, it wouldn’t leave any scars.

Yang Dingtian stitched it very delicately and did over ten stitches for a wound, which was only over an inch long.

“Alright, done!” Yang Dingtian instinctively wanted to bite off the strand with his teeth and immediately felt that it was inappropriate, as he switched to using his sword to cut off the strand.

But before he even had time to lift his head, he instantly felt an ice-cold feeling on his neck, while his hairs stood on its end slowly.

There was this dangerous energy that instantly locked onto him.

“No way…” Yang Dingtian gasped in his heart and slowly lifted his head.

As he expected, Dugu Fengwu had awakened, and both her eyes were opened. Her gorgeous face was cold as ice, as though it was enveloped in frost.

“Have, have you regained your mystic qi?” Yang Dingtian asked with a hoarse voice.

Dugu Fengwu nodded and noticed that she wasn’t wearing her clothes as though she didn’t even mind it.

“I am just helping to treat and stitch up your wounds. Otherwise, you would continue bleeding and might even leave behind an awful looking scar,” Yang Dingtian explained.

Dugu Fengwu nodded again, but she didn’t seem to be pleased.

“If you didn’t lose your memory, you should remember that I have saved your life. I rescued you from the evil clutches of those pirates,” Yang Dingtian stated.

Dugu Fengwu nodded again.

“It would be good as long as you can remember the gratitude of saving your life. It would be better than falling emotionlessly, right?” Yang Dingtian felt relief in his heart as he said, “Alright then. Do you have anything you want to say, and what do you plan to do?”

“Hand over the Fire Immunity Chilling Pearl, or I will sever you into pieces,” Dugu Fengwu spoke in a cold voice.

Yang Dingtian rolled his eyes and nearly fainted.

Why was this demon woman still saying this? Couldn’t she change to a new trick?

Yang Dingtian endured his anger and replied, “Are you out of your mind? I just saved your life, and you want to sever me into pieces? Do you even have a conscience?”

“I do not have a conscience. Do you only know this now? Does a demon woman even need a conscience?” Dugu Fengwu spoke indifferently, “What’s more, did I ask you to save me?”

In an instant, Yang Dingtian was speechless as he looked towards the sky.

“I am speechless to encounter such a shameless demon woman like you. I am not going to waste my saliva on you. Do whatever you want, but I will not give you the Fire Immunity Chilling Pearl, no matter what,” Yang Dingtian replied coldly.

Dugu Fengwu stood up and said in a cold voice, “Are you truly not afraid of death?”

Yang Dingtian immediately closed his eyes as he didn’t even want to speak of another word to this unreasonable demon woman.

In an instant, Yang Dingtian felt a chill on his neck as a sharp sword was placed on his neck.

“If you are not going to hand over the Fire Immunity Chilling Pearl, then you are going to die!” Dugu Fengwu yelled out.

Yang Dingtian still had his eyes shut and didn’t say a single word.

“Then, I apologize. You are asking for it. I will kill you then dissect your corpse. I don’t believe that I will not be able to find the Fire Immunity Chilling Pearl,” Dugu Fengwu spoke coldly and suddenly slashed her sword down.

“Bang…”

Yang Dingtian felt a chill and extreme pain on his neck, causing his entire body to collapse on the ground.

Dugu Fengwu used the flat side of the sword instead of the bladed edge. She ultimately didn’t kill Yang Dingtian.

“If it weren’t for the Fire Immunity Chilling Pearl, I really wish to take off your annoying head,” Dugu Fengwu spoke with anguish.

Yang Dingtian opened his eyes and revealed a smile. “So, you are not going to kill me?”

“Don’t you dare to take advantage of this situation,” Dugu Fengwu stated and cut off the strand from her wound.

She behaved so bossily even when cutting off a thread.

Subsequently, when she took a few steps forward and frowned.

“It is all your fault. I wish that I can sever you into pieces right now.” Dugu Fengwu spoke with resentment, “Where is the Silk Snow Brocade?”

Yang Dingtian quickly handed over the snow brocade.

“This women’s business is truly disgusting,” Dugu Fengwu spoke coldly.

Yang Dingtian got a shock and immediately turned around.

Dugu Fengwu stomped on the ground, while her snow-white body flew several meters, as she quickly looked for a clean pool. She naturally preferred cleanliness, and it was unbearable for her to have any bloodstain. She had to find a clean pool to wash her body clean.

She quickly found it, which was 2,000 meters northwest in a dense forest.

Dugu Fengwu spun in midair and drifted over to the pool. But when she was flying, she used her palm to create a suction force and pulled Yang Dingtian into the sky before wedging him at her waist.

“You crazy woman. Why do you need to bring me everywhere you go? Are you sick?!” Yang Dingtian spoke with anger.

Dugu Fengwu said in a cold voice, “From now onwards, you will not leave my line of sight, all the way until the Fire Cloud Devil Cave. I don’t believe you wouldn’t take out the Fire Immunity Chilling Pearl by then.”

“You… This demon woman really has no sense of shame. You are just an unreasonable demon woman,” Yang Dingtian spoke while gritting his teeth.

*************************************************

Two days later, Yang Dingtian and Dugu Fengwu arrived 1,000 miles outside of Iron Furnace City.

The Iron Furnace City was located at the southeast part of the northwest continent, which was around 5,000 miles from Cloud Heaven City and close to 2,000 miles from Fire Cloud Devil Cave. Of course, the Cloud Heaven City was northwest to the Iron Furnace City, while the Fire Cloud Devil Cave was northeast to the Iron Furnace City, on an isolated volcano island.

The Iron Furnace City was a city of weapons, a city of forging.

Almost the entire Primal Chaos World’s weaponsmith clans were revolving around the vicinity of the Iron Furnace City. Most of the world’s weapons trade and deals were all conducted in Iron Furnace City.

Dugu Fengwu and Yang Dingtian only had one objective at Iron Furnace City, which was the Mystic Fire Devil Hammer. Only this hammer could forge a blood black gold young sword.

You are reading story Nine Yang Sword Saint at novel35.com

The blood black gold was already the tough and the most heat resistant metal in the world, and only the peak grade coal-seam fire could smelt the blood black gold. When the blood black gold was at an extremely high temperature, no other hammers in the world could do any forging to it. Because upon contact with the red hot blood black gold, even the toughest hammer would turn into molten iron, even if it was for a split second.

And this Mystic Fire Devil Hammer was actually made with blood black gold. Thus, in this world, only the Mystic Fire Devil Hammer could be used to forge soul swords.

There was only one clan in the world that possessed the Mystic Fire Devil Hammer. It would be the leading figure of the Iron Furnace City, the Divine Weapons Manor.

The Divine Weapons Manor wasn’t among the Three Sects, Nine Clans, Twenty Seven Branches. But they were the core strength of the Heaven Dao Union, and their statuses weren’t inferior to the prestigious sects. It was because most of the divine weapons came from the Divine Weapons Manor.

The Divine Weapons Manor had close ties with nearly all of the notable and influential forces. Hence, no one in the world dared to offend them.

There would be someone who wanted to forge a soul sword every few dozen years. What happened if they required the Mystic Fire Devil Hammer?

Simple. They just had to borrow it from the Divine Weapons Manor! Most of the time, as long as one had a prominent status, they would be able to borrow it.

Dongfang Niemie borrowed it from the Divine Weapons Manor, and so did Ximen Wuya.

Without any exception, those who came to borrow the Mystic Fire Devil Hammer were all great marital masters in the world.

The owner of Terror Manor, Zhao Wuji, had once borrowed the Mystic Fire Devil Hammer from the Divine Weapons Manor as well. He brought along a few hundred thousand gold coins and countless treasures. But, Zhao Wuji was driven away before he even entered the door of the Divine Weapons Manor.

Afterward, it was the Northwest Qin Clan Head who stepped in and helped Zhao Wuji to borrow the Mystic Fire Devil Hammer.

It was clear that the Mystic Fire Devil Hammer could be borrowed, but it was only lent out to the martial masters or the members of the Three Sects and Nine Clans. The Twenty Seven Branches didn’t even have that qualification, let alone those nameless people.

Yang Dingtian and Dugu Fengwu definitely belonged in the nameless people group.

Yang Dingtian was the successor of the Cloud Heaven City Lord and was also the disciple of Dongfang Niemie. But it was regretful that he must not expose his identity.

Dugu Fengwu was the princess of the Temple of Blood and the number-one beauty prodigy of the Evil Dao. It was a pity that the evil and the righteous had never coexisted. Once Dugu Fengwu exposed her identity, the entire Iron Furnace City would definitely conduct a frenzied pursuit.

But even though they knew those facts, Dugu Fengwu and Yang Dingtian still came to the Iron Furnace City. They put on some disguises and were heading towards the Divine Weapons Manor to ‘borrow’ the Mystic Fire Devil Hammer.

The Divine Weapons Manor wasn’t located in the city but on Mt. Black Edge, which was a hundred miles away.

**************************************

Yang Dingtian and Dugu Fengwu had arrived at the best inn in Iron Furnace City. They were both cladded in black mantles and concealing their faces.

But the people around them didn’t look at them with curious eyes, because there were plenty of such people in the city.

“We would like two of the best rooms,” Dugu Fengwu requested.

As such, the inn gave the two of them the best and most expensive rooms.

The two rooms were next to each other. They arrived at the entrance of the rooms and waited for the servant to leave. Yang Dingtian then said, “If we are to go and borrow the Mystic Fire Devil Hammer in this state, we won’t be able to borrow it. What ideas do you have?”

Dugu Fengwu immediately handed over a piece of human skin mask and clothes while instructing, “Wear this mask and change into these clothes.”

Yang Dingtian couldn’t understand, but now that this demon woman had regained her prowess, he didn’t try to resist.

*****************

After entering the room, Yang Dingtian took a bath in the bathtub, completely cleansing his body.

He then put on the clothes in front of the mirror and put on a brand new disguise.

He changed a brand new mask, which was also the most lifelike mask in his spatial ring. But unfortunately, it was also the most handsome mask. In fact, it was excessively handsome and was comparable to that pretty boy, Zhu Hongxue.

He put on the mask slowly and made sure that it fit seamlessly. He then carefully put on a set of long hair and expensive embroidered clothes that were made from silk.

An extremely cool and charming man appeared in the mirror.

It was cool because this mask was originally cool. Furthermore, this mask wasn’t lifelike like a mirage mask. Thus, it wasn’t suited to have multiple emotions. Otherwise, it would just seem very unnatural.

“I really didn’t intend to make myself so handsome,” Yang Dingtian let out a bitter smile to himself in the mirror.

He then took a deep breath and maintained his cool expression before walking out of the room.

Just as he walked out of the door, he immediately attracted plenty of glances, as almost everyone turned to look at him, and not only the females. But those females had fervent eyes, which were in a daze.

Dugu Fengwu had yet come out of the room.

Yang Dingtian just stood there waiting by the entrance for more than one hour, before she opened the door.

The moment she walked out, everyone got a shock again as everyone’s eyes were fervent and infatuated.

Yang Dingtian was also stunned.

Of course, Yang Dingtian was already used to Dugu Fengwu’s absolute beauty. Hence, he wasn’t instantly stunned.

He was surprised because Dugu Fengwu had changed into a completely different individual, in terms of her personality.

That’s right. In the past, Dugu Fengwu was already one of the most beautiful women in the world, but she had never treated herself as a woman. Even Yang Dingtian treated her like Dongfang Bubai, as she had this indistinguishable and unique charm of both a man and a female.

(TL note: It was mentioned in the earlier chapters that Dongfang Bubai is a character in one of the Jinyong Novels.)

Previously, she didn’t reveal any hint of feminine aura from head to toe, but right now, she was oozing with feminine aura from every corner of her body.

But right now, the woman in front of Yang Dingtian had this femme fatale look, which was emitting seductive looks. Every inch of her body had the charm of a woman.

Her face had completely changed, but there weren’t any signs of disguise or mask. To be honest, her disguised face wasn’t as beautiful as her real face.

The crucial part was the charm, which might have risen to the level of a demon. Be it her eyes, frown, or smile; it was all so captivating and seductive.

Dugu Fengwu was very tall and had a great figure, but she was always wearing men’s clothes, which concealed her curves.

But right now, she was wearing a pink palace dress, which completely displayed her figure. Right now, she had curves like the undulating mountain ranges, which completely explained the meaning of devilish curves.

Any man would probably be fascinated with a single glance.

*************************************************

“Are, are you trying to use a honey trap on the people of the Divine Weapons Manor?” Yang Dingtian looked at Dugu Fengwu and couldn’t help but ask.

Dugu Fengwu looked at Yang Dingtian indifferently and said, “Do you have any objection?”

Yang Dingtian was startled as he shook his head and replied, “Nope.”

Dugu Fengwu took out a blue gemstone pendant and wore it on her neck, making her glow with the aura of precious stones and even more charming.

“Remember, from now on, I am the Seven Refined Lane’s Third Lady Gongsun,” Dugu Fengwu stated.

Yang Dingtian was instantly astonished. The Seven Refined Lane was one of the Three Sects, Nine Clans, Twenty Seven Branches and were renowned in the world. They were just like the Sky Phoenix Pavilion, where all their disciples were female. But their fame was must more prominent than the Sky Phoenix Pavilion. The disciples from the Seven Refined Lane often traveled the world and generously displayed their beauty and sex appeal to the world.

Moreover, the Seven Refined Lane didn’t forbid their members from getting married. In fact, there were numerous disciples from the Seven Refined Lane who married into the various prestigious sects. The women from the Seven Refined Lane were like the blessing that every man dreamed of.

There was indeed a Third Lady Gongsun, and she was ranked third in the Seven Refined Lane. Furthermore, she was a renowned beauty in the world. In terms of looking for a marriage partner, all the men in the world wouldn’t be looking for the Nine Heavens Fairy, Dongfang Bingling, nor the princess of Cloud Heaven City, Ximen Yanyan. Every man would be targeting Third Lady Gongsun because Third Lady Gongsun was both exceptional in looks and skills. Especially her sword dance which was world renowned

Most importantly, Third Lady Gongsun was charming and delicate, who couldn’t be compared with the arrogant fairy as Dongfang Bingling.

“It isn’t good to impersonate the world-renowned Third Lady Gongsun, right?” Yang Dingtian couldn’t help but comment.

Dugu Fengwu looked at Yang Dingtian and said, “I am the real Third Lady Gongsun!”

“Ahh?” Yang Dingtian got a shock.

Third Lady Gongsun was Dugu Fengwu? Dugu Fengwu was Third Lady Gongsun?

It was truly unexpected that the famous Third Lady Gongsun, the most charming and captivating woman, was actually Dugu Fengwu’s alter ego? No wonder she was dressed so excessively, and in such exaggeration, it was because all women from the Seven Refined Lane were dressed like this. If this were the case, it seemed like the reputation of the Seven Refined Lane wasn’t as upright, if they were all wearing in this manner, who would believe that they didn’t have any purpose.

“My goodness…” Yang Dingtian couldn’t help but ask softly, “Then why is the real you lack any hint feminism?”

“It is because I have put on too much of a pretense, thus the reason why I hate feminism. Hence, I have complete disregard, and I despise it,” Dugu Fengwu spoke with a deep grievance which was of those heart-wrenching types.

Alright then, this reason was sufficient, and Yang Dingtian couldn’t say anything else. But when properly thinking about it, it was hard to say which type of Dugu Fengwu was much more appealing.

Immediately after, she glared with her beautiful eyes and said, “Alright, keep all your nonsense. Let’s go to the Divine Weapons Manor to borrow the Mystic Fire Devil Hammer.”

Yang Dingtian hesitated slightly and said, “I reckon that you are still not qualified even if you use your status as Third Lady Gongsun to borrow the Mystic Fire Devil Hammer, right?”

Dugu Fengwu replied indifferently, “I am not qualified, but your status will be.”

Yang Dingtian spoke with a surprised tone, “Then… what identity am I right now?”

“The nameless successor of the formidable Hidden Sect, the supreme leader of the Heaven Dao Union, the true number-one martial expert of the world!” Dugu Fengwu replied in a dull manner. Her tone was indifferent, as though she was just mentioning something trivial.

Yang Dingtian was utterly shocked, as though he was struck by lightning. He asked in a trembling voice, “Are, are you asking me to die without any burial grounds?”

This, this was truly a path towards death and one that might possibly end without a complete body. There would be nowhere that one would be able to seek shelter after doing this and getting caught.

Yang Dingtian had done plenty of crazy things in the past, but none of those consequences would be worse than this.

Once he was exposed, the consequences would be unbearable and unimaginable.

Acting as the successor of the Hidden Sect? The leading figure of the Heaven Dao Union or even the leading figure of the entire world? Impersonating him? Even if one were to court death, they wouldn’t be using this method.
