Chapter Thirty: Sword Clash

  Martial guest?

  If the other party was a martial artist, he might still be wary of three points, but if it was a martial guest, Lin Yun had 100% confidence that he could defeat the martial guest and ultimately kill him.

  "Mei'er, don't you believe in my strength?"

  "Of course I believe you, it's precisely because I believe in your abilities that I want to ask a favor of you."

  "Go ahead and say what's on your mind."

  "Lin Yun, no matter how much we dislike this person, he is still my cousin. Last night I told Father and my cousin about your affair, and my cousin insisted on fighting you today, so I'm begging you, no matter what, please don't hurt my cousin, okay?"

  Actually, Lin Yun didn't hesitate at all and directly agreed: "Don't worry, I'm not some kind of killer who likes to kill people casually. You can rest assured that no matter what happens, I won't harm your brother-in-law, okay?"

  "Alright," said Kai Xin happily, embracing Lin Yun's arm, and the two of them walked shoulder to shoulder towards the City Lord's Manor.

  Tianfa City, one of the three major cities in Luoyang City, is also the first among the three major cities. Tianfa City is renowned throughout the Longteng Empire for its economy and other industries. The prosperity and development of Tianfa City are inseparable from the fact that it has a responsible city lord.

  The City Lord's Mansion, located in the most luxurious street in the northern part of Tianfa City, serves as the residence of the highest decision-maker in Tianfa City. The City Lord's Mansion is extremely luxurious, and its vast grounds cover several hundred acres, surrounded by high red walls.

  At first glance, Lin Yun couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder when he saw the City Lord's Manor of Tian Fa City, because the manor in front of him seemed to be a miniature version of the Imperial Palace, looking as majestic as it could be.

  Two people came to the front gate of the city master's mansion, led by Ye Mei'er herself, and did not receive any obstruction. The two entered the city master's mansion smoothly, and in the main hall of the city master's mansion, when the two entered, there were already two people waiting for a long time.

  Among them, a middle-aged man with a scholarly appearance sat in the first row, with two sword-like eyebrows on his handsome face, giving people a very comfortable feeling. As for the remaining person, he was sitting in the left position, with a pale and thin complexion, like a bamboo pole.

  "Lin Yun, let me introduce you, this is my father Ye Xuan, and this one is my cousin, Ye Meng."

  "Lord Ye is good," Lin Yun was very wary of the Lord Ye in front of him, because from start to finish, he couldn't sense the true cultivation of this Lord of Tianfa City. This was a terrifying thing, and Ye Xuan gave him a feeling that was unfathomable, with a cultivation that was at least above that of a Pre-Heavenly Master. After all, his beautiful teacher and Ye Xuan in front of him were not on the same level.

  "What kind of thing are you? You actually don't kneel down when seeing my uncle."

  Upon hearing this, Lin Yun and Ye Mei'er's faces changed, especially Ye Mei'er, who directly retorted: "Ye Meng, don't be too excessive, you should know that this is my home, not yours."

  Ye Meng, a direct disciple of the Ye family in Longteng City, Longteng Empire. It was precisely because of this that Ye Meng was able to successfully break through to the Innate Martial Artist at less than twenty years old.

  This time, Ye Meng came with a heavy gift to propose, but who would have thought that his cousin had already belonged to someone else. He, who could get whatever he wanted since childhood, how could he be willing to give up? So when the young man just entered the main hall, Ye Meng directly started to make things difficult.

  "Alright, Lin Yun has always been a friend of Mei'er's, so let's skip the usual formalities if we can."

  "Uncle, you can't say that. If everyone were like this person, where would the dignity of our city lord be? In the future, no matter who comes in, they won't kneel down anymore."

  Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan's face also gradually turned unpleasant. If it weren't for the fact that he was wary of the Ye family behind Ye Meng and their actual kinship, he might have driven this person away long ago.

  "Are you Ye Meng? Mei'er's older cousin?"

  "What's wrong with you? Are you worthy of calling my name? Take a good look at yourself."

  Stopping the volcano from erupting, Lin Yun still had a smile on his face and said: "Before I came, I heard Mei'er say that you wanted to spar with me, I don't know if this is true?"

  "Right, at the beginning, I did want to spar with you, but now?" Seeing that his opponent was just a congenital martial artist, Ye Meng's face revealed a deep sense of disdain. After all, martial artists were nothing in front of him. The gap between martial artists and martial guests was like a river separating them.

  "It turns out brother is afraid, since he's afraid, then I won't force it either."

  "Wait a minute, who said I was afraid? Since you want to die, don't blame me for being impolite."

  Saying that, Ye Meng suddenly stood up and left the main hall. Ye Mei'er, Lin Yun, and Ye Xuan also followed him out. From start to finish, Ye Xuan didn't say anything about the sparring between the two of them. The four arrived at the martial arts training grounds specially set aside in the City Lord's Manor. Ye Meng walked over to where the weapons were placed, took down a long spear from above, and stood on the spot saying: "You weren't shouting about wanting to try out with me? Today I'll let you truly experience my family's life-taking spear technique."

  "Lin Yun, you must be extremely careful. The Ye family's Life-Taking Gun Decision is incredibly powerful. Although the Life-Taking Gun Decision is an external martial skill..."

  Waving his hand, Lin Yun smiled and said: "Mei'er, you should worry more about your cousin," As he spoke, Lin Yun also walked down to the front of the weapons and casually picked up one of the long swords.

  Yue Xuan said: "You two, today's trial is just a test of skills, no one can hurt each other's life. Alright, let the trial begin."

  The word "start" had just fallen, Ye Meng's hand grasped the long spear, with an extremely swift and fierce power, coordinating with a flying speed towards Lin Yun, the long spear was known for its speed, while ordinary people couldn't use it at all, after all, among the eighteen kinds of weapons, the long spear was the most difficult to use.

  Not daring to be the slightest bit careless, Jian Can's starting move was launched, and Lin Yun's long sword also shot out instantly. In terms of speed, Ye Meng's long spear couldn't keep up with Lin Yun's starting move. The moment the spear and sword collided, both were simultaneously bounced back, retreating three steps before stopping.

  "So it was hidden in plain sight, I underestimated you, take this fatal blow."

  It was just a single move of confrontation, and Lin Yun already knew that the arrogant guy in front of him indeed had real skills, worthy of being a disciple from a large family. Especially his fatal gun decision, just as Ye Mei'er said, although the fatal gun decision is an external martial skill, it's indeed not much different from his true martial skill.

  However, the fatal blow that Ye Meng had just made was probably not yet at the level of true mastery, otherwise the starting move he had just used would have been unable to withstand his opponent's fatal blow.

  Watching the opponent rush over again, this time it seemed to be using something called "Life-taking One Throat"? Lin Yun did not continue to use his starting move this time, because he knew very clearly that if this confrontation continued to use the starting move, he might not be able to withstand the opponent's long spear.

  Jian Chi Jing, First Sword Move.

  Waving the long spear in his hand, a series of sword energy quickly emerged. This time, Lin Yun did not confront Ye Meng head-on at all, but instead used the sword energy to continuously attack his opponent.

  Yexuan, who was standing on the sidelines watching the battle, almost exclaimed when he saw the sword energy used by the young man. Despite this, he still said with some shock: "Sword Sect, how is it possible for someone from Sword Sect to appear in Tianfa City?"

  "Dad, what is Jianzong?"

  "There's nothing much, your friend is very powerful."

  As for Lin Yun's strength, Ye Mei'er naturally knew that in the Heavenly Punishment Forest back then, Lin Yun had used his pre-heavenly warrior strength to instantly kill the third-level heavenly spirit beast, the Ice Fire Giant Python.

  The power of Jian Chi Jing's first sword move was indeed very strong, with sword energy crisscrossing everywhere, not giving Ye Meng even the slightest chance to get close. If things continued like this, there was no doubt that Ye Meng would ultimately lose. All four people present, including Ye Meng, knew this.

  The long spear swung fiercely, and Ye Meng suddenly stopped his hand and said: "Hmph, I have an urgent matter to attend to today, so I don't have time to entangle with you anymore. If you come to Longteng City in the future, we will continue to fight."

  Ye Meng threw away the long spear in his hand, came to Ye Xuan's front and said: "I just remembered that there is something urgent at home, so I won't continue to stay here, goodbye."

  "Aren't you going to stay a bit longer?"

  "No, Uncle. I'm leaving," Even without saying goodbye to Mei'er, Ye Meng turned around and disappeared into the martial arts arena. In fact, everyone present understood that Ye Meng left so quickly because he found out that he couldn't win against the person he was fighting. As a direct disciple of a large family clan, he couldn't even defeat an academy student. If he continued to stay, it would only lead to further humiliation.

  "Not bad, I really didn't expect that Tenpu Academy would have a student like you."

  As for the lord of Tianfa City, Lin Yun became even more wary because just as he had just exchanged blows with Ye Meng and made out the sword residual chapter, the lord of Tianfa City suddenly shouted out "Sword Sect". Wasn't this proof that this lord of Tianfa City also knew about the Sword Sect?

  The three of them had a meal and chatted for a while, then Ye Xuan got up and said he had something to attend to and left. The opportunity finally came, this time following Mei Er to the City Lord's Manor, the main purpose was to investigate the bottom line of the City Lord of Tian Fa City, whether it was for Mei Er or his mission.

  Found an excuse, Lin Yun temporarily left Mei Er, but the city master's mansion was really too big, wanting to find some clues seemed a bit difficult. However, this time, fortunately, there was such an opportunity, even if it was just luck, good luck would lead to finding something, and bad luck would mean returning alone.
