Could it be that I am the cruel villain?

Chapter 309: Eight-Sided Han Sword


Jiang Feng never doubted Liu Tangxi's strength.

Just like how Liu Xianzi always trusted her junior brother, Jiang Feng had never questioned his senior sister.

Whenever his senior sister said something seriously, it would come true, and it was the same with Jiang Feng. Both understood each other's character and strength well.

Back in Qingshui County, he had witnessed with his own eyes the remarkable feat of his senior sister using a single sword strike to forcefully repel the Great Elder Lan Tianyong of the Taixu Sect. It's worth noting that at that time, his senior sister had sacrificed part of her soul and half of her cultivation to suppress the demon within her.

According to her, it took over three months to barely recover about seventy percent of her strength, and her body was left with countless hidden dangers.

But now... she has already recovered ninety percent.

Watching the earth-shattering commotion in the distance, Jiang Feng couldn't help but twitch his brow.

Honestly, he suddenly understood why Purple Cloud Palace didn't send any elder-level figures this time but instead sent a protector along with his senior sister.

Fishing enforcement.

Not to mention two; even with three elders facing off against his senior sister, she wouldn't necessarily be at a disadvantage. Everyone still regarded Liu Tangxi's strength as it was approximately twenty years ago.

In the cultivation world, twenty years is not considered long. For many cultivators with high cultivation realms, it takes them over twenty years in seclusion to even figure something out, but Liu Tangxi is a complete anomaly.

Her growth is utterly exaggerated, with no stagnation, surpassing even the last Sword Immortal, a monster who progresses at every moment.

"What, want to watch?"

Seeing Jiang Feng staring straight at the other side of the mountain, the equally young Protector Yang just smiled slightly.

His hawk-like features were quite intimidating at first glance, possessing a kind of handsome but rather effeminate aura, which wasn't entirely harmonious.

However, he was very considerate towards the younger generation of their sect and particularly interested in Jiang Feng. Especially in today's beheading operation, his first reaction upon hearing the news was that the boy was recklessly taking advantage of his status.

But unexpectedly...

"Who wouldn't want to watch a duel between experts? I've never seen my senior sister go all out."

"Alright."

He nodded slightly.

With a push of his legs, he took Jiang Feng at an extremely terrifying speed through the mountains, almost ascending vertically along the ridge, moving so fast that only afterimages could be seen.

Within just a few breaths, they were already standing on an inconspicuous hill, from where they could just make out the distant blurred figures and the Bone Dragon that had grown flesh.

But ever since the hundred-zhang Eight-faced Sword pierced through the clouds, Jiang Feng was so astonished that he couldn't even utter a sound.

"You truly understand Peak Master Liu well, after all, you are both disciples of Swordmaster Peak."

Unlike Jiang Feng's shock, there was more of a sense of relief and reflection.

In fact, ever since Liu Tangxi took the initiative to slay six experts of the Xuanyin Sect more than twenty years ago, he understood that there was an insurmountable gap between him and this junior sister.

Although their statuses were unequal, he had indeed joined the sect a few years before Liu Tangxi, and even now, Liu Tangxi would proactively call him senior brother when they met.

Alas, he truly felt unworthy of that title.

"Master Jiang's nephew, although you both call each other sister and brother, in the eyes of outsiders, it's still a master-disciple relationship, including in my eyes. We can't have all the senior brothers and sisters who are over a hundred years old calling you uncle, so I hope you don't mind."

"Of course not, I am indeed the junior. By the way, Protector Yang, I haven't yet inquired about your full name?"

He certainly didn't mind, as he was naturally the junior and would always address his peers as senior brothers and sisters, and was always very conscientious when meeting elders. He wasn't that foolish.

He proactively cupped his hands in respect. Although he was injured, his injuries weren't too severe. While Xuan Yinzi was troublesome to deal with, it was far less shocking and troublesome than the previous encounter with the Golden Monk, who had properly refined a major Buddhist treasure and was extremely proficient in actual battle with various Buddhist Laws.

Although his talent wasn't much to boast about, he was the hardworking type. Xuan Yinzi, on the other hand, completely relied on Magic Treasure and various Daoist Skills to play with numbers. Compared to dealing with Jin Shan, it was indeed much easier, but perhaps it was also because he had grown a lot after that battle.

In response to Jiang Feng's inquiry, Protector Yang didn't hesitate and replied with two words.

"Yang Mo."

"Uh, Protector Yang, no need to be so modest. I was just asking for your full name..."

"Yang Mo."

He repeated.

Seeing Jiang Feng's bewilderment, Protector Yang laughed and said, "My surname is Yang and my name is Mo. The majority of people react the same way you do upon hearing these two words, hahaha. It's a joke, really, it was all the fault of the fortune teller who convinced my parents that being a person of no fame and no name was the way to become an official and make money. So they believed it and named me Yang Mo."

Covered in sweat.

So, there are actually people in this world with such names!

Protector Yang seemed quite satisfied with Jiang Feng's astonishment. He thrust his spear into the ground; in truth, given the commotion from the earlier battle, he didn't need to intervene. With his spear in the ground, his tone carried a tinge of resignation.

"Peak Master Liu remains as powerful as ever, her means are heaven-reaching, truly admirable."

"Since I regrettably lost to Peak Master Liu in the martial arts tournament a hundred years ago, I have been unable to let it go for many years."

"Therefore, I volunteered to go out and train, later taking positions as an external steward, an external sect protector, and other roles, honing my skills outside for years. I believed myself to be progressing rapidly, continuously breaking through realms and gaining insights."
