Chapter 151: Paying A Visit!

Chapter 151 Paying A Visit!

Chu Xun strode toward Golden Knife Sect at an unbelievable speed. Each of his step covered at least ten meters.

He did not attempt to hide his movements, yet he was too fast to be noticed, until he reached the giant rock with the words “Golden Knife Sect” carved on it.

“Who are you?” asked the two men, who were holding long sabers. Both of them were dressed very neatly.

“I am Chu Xun!”

His voice was powered by his True Energy, so it filled the sky like deafening thunder. The two men holding long sabers fainted immediately under the impact of his voice.

Most of the buildings were made of wood, so they were all shaking, amidst Chu Xun’s thunderous bellow.

The largest main hall of Golden Knife Sect was only open to the presbyters.

The main chair was placed higher than all the others. It was made of authentic scented rosewood. It was covered by a piece of tiger skin that had the texture of silk.

A sturdy man with a dignified look, sat on that chair. He looked at the other presbyters, and was in high spirits. This man was none other than the householder of Golden Knife Sect — Yan Song.

“Householder. According to our information, not only did Chu Xun murder the presbyter of Heaven Tao Sect, he also intends to pay us a visit. How audacious!” said a skinny man who had a goatee. His eyes revealed a glint of shrewdness.

That man was the vice householder of Golden Knife Sect — Qian Lei. When he first received Xiong Tai’s call for assistance, he traveled to Qianlong Mountain instantly with his men. Only when he arrived did he witness the awe-inspiring battle between Chu Xun and Zombie. He then fled back to Golden Knife Sect without any hesitation, and had been haunted by nightmares ever since.

“Heaven Tao Sect?” Yan Song’s eyes showed a glimpse of interest, as he sat up a little bit and continued derisively, “Heaven Tao Sect is a top-tier sect and its power is beyond anyone’s imagination. How dare Chu Xun visit them alone? Does he want to die so badly?”

“I bet you are right. His recent fame must have boosted his ego. He must have overestimated himself, to be messing with Heaven Tao Sect!” said a presbyter mockingly.

“From a nobody to a famous figure in such a short period of time, Chu Xun must be super lucky. It seems that the rumor of him gaining a peerless skill and a magic formation manual, must be true.” said someone enviously.

“I heard that he gained the title of ‘The Ruthless’? Or is it ‘The Devil’? All he did was to murder warriors of Innate and Acquired Realm. How is that even impressive? How shameless!”

“Shut up!” bellowed Qian Lei, all of a sudden.

Everyone was stunned, yet no one dared to question him.

Despite being only the vice householder of Golden Knife Sect, Qian Lei was also the think tank of the sect. He had killed hundreds of people with his schemes.

Moreover, for Golden Knife Sect to rise from the third tier to the second tier within only a couple of years, Qian Lei played a significant role in that. In some areas, he was even more reputable than Yan Song.

Yan Song looked at Qian Lei with a questioning look.

“Householder. Chu Xun is a powerful figure that should not be ignored.” Qian Lei turned to the presbyter who mocked Chu Xun and continued, “Do you really think he obtained the title of ‘The Ruthless’ and ‘The Devil’ so easily? He has killed more warriors in the Grandmaster Realm than you have encountered. You better stop bragging before you embarrass yourself.”

That presbyter blushed immediately, yet a sense of fear tugged at his heart. He believed Qian Lei would not simply say those words to crush his ego, then what he said must be true... In that case, Chu Xun was indeed a fearsome figure.

Everyone fell silent, and the atmosphere turned icy.

“Come on. Chu Xun might be powerful, but he is still human. What is there to be afraid of? We are located in a rather secluded location, so he might not be able to find us, even if he intends to. Moreover, we are the furthest away from the capital city. He would not be so stupid as to pick the longest route to come to us. Even if he comes, I might not lose to him...”

He heard a voice as loud as thunder, once he finished speaking.

“I am Chu Xun!”

The voice was extremely concentrated and did not disperse for long. It was impossible for anyone to miss it.

Yan Song was shocked when he heard that voice. He opened his mouth so wide that his jaw almost dropped.

Qian Lei was stroking his goatee when the voice hit him. Startled by the voice, his hand shook and pulled a few strands of hair out. His face was distorted by the immense pain.

All the presbyters were dumbfounded.

Speak of the devil. How strange was that!

One’s reputation is of extreme importance. Now almost everyone in Martial Tao had heard of Chu Xun’s name.

Hundreds of disciples of Golden Knife Sect started panicking once they heard Chu Xun’s name. They were all reminded of his notorious deeds, be it the massacre at Demon King Sect, or the time he eliminated all the warriors at Qianlong Mountain. Nothing could erase the scene of the bloodshed from their minds.

“Chu the Ruthless is here, he is here to kill all of us...” said someone in a trembling voice.

“Chu the Devil is here, we are all going to die.”

“It is all Xiong Tai’s fault. That idiot just had to mess with Chu Xun among all the people. Now that he found us, there is no way to escape... I don’t want to die...”

Most of these disciples were either in Innate Realm or Acquired Realm, hence they were all panicking now.

The disciples guarding the main gate had fled from their posts like mad dogs, upon hearing Chu Xun’s name. They could feel the cramps in their calves, and no longer cared about their duties. Some even threw away their long sabers and protected their heads with both hands, scared that Chu Xun would decapitate them.

That was because rumors said Chu Xun was most fond of beheading his enemies. It was said that during his massacre at Demon King Sect, human heads were found everywhere, and their blood stained the entire stone staircase red.

The atmosphere in the main hall of Golden Knife Sect was slightly awkward.

This was because a few moments ago, Yan Song still believed that Chu Xun would not be able to find Golden Knife Sect, and there should not be anything to worry about even if he did... Now his “timely” arrival proved everything he said wrong, how embarrassing!

The corners of Yan Song’s mouth twitched, and he looked more furious than ever.

“What should we do now?” asked a presbyter.

“I will kill him.”

Yan Song’s eyes looked cold and fierce. He took down the near-three-meter long golden claymore from a shelf. As he swung it in the air, one could hear a piercing and explosive sound. It was a weapon that would instill fear in their enemies’ hearts.

“Please do not act impulsively, householder!” a presbyter tried to dissuade him.

“Maybe we can see if the vice householder has any plans in mind?”

Qian Lei furrowed his brows. Chu Xun’s visit was all too sudden. He had observed him fighting once, yet he was not able to detect his true strength. For that, he was in a very passive situation. What if he could not evaluate Chu Xun’s power accurately?

Yan Song was growing impatient. He said with a sneer, “How scary can this Chu Xun actually be? You guys have only heard about his cruelty from rumors, which may not be true after all. I don’t believe he has the strength of a divine being! He is just a boy of about twenty years old, and there are so many of us. How can we be afraid of him!”

Everyone else looked at Qian Lei.

Qian Lei remained silent for quite a while, then clenched his jaws and said with a vicious look, “Just like what our householder said, let’s pay Chu Xun a visit. Should he attempt to mess with us, we don’t need the householder to fight with him. Our Golden Knife Formation has not tasted human blood for a long time.”

Having heard of the Golden Knife Formation, everyone apparently looked calmer and became more confident.

“Let’s go!”

Yan Song waved his hand, and their entire group rushed to the main gate.

...

Chu Xun looked at the group of people in front of him indifferently. They were all ferocious and ready to fight.

“You are Chu Xun?”

Yan Song could not believe what he saw, for Chu Xun’s young and handsome face was never what they expected.

Everyone else was also sizing up Chu Xun. What they saw was way too different from what they imagined, based on rumors. He was not the 30-feet devil with sharp fangs and giant eyes. On the contrary, he looked like... like a student! Could it be that they were facing the fake Chu Xun?

“And you are?” Chu Xun asked, as he looked sideways. His indifferent look was still in place.

“I am Yan Song, the householder of Golden Knife Sect.”

Chu Xun’s expression remained the same. There was no reaction from him, as if he was completely uninterested in him.

Yan Song turned mad all of a sudden. “Can you at least reply me politely? Have you ever gone to school? Didn’t your teacher teach you how to maintain a proper conversation?”

“You asked your question, and I answered it. Now you are simply ignoring me! What do you mean by that? Are you looking down on me, or are you pretending to be superior to me?”
