That broken piece of stone could be sold for money? The black-shirted old man frowned as he looked over in disbelief.

Apart from those two blade marks, he couldn’t see anything special about it. Apart from those, there was a shallow mark from another weapon, he couldn’t tell what.

He didn’t see much, but just as he was about to shift his eyes away he was startled. There was an explosive flash in his eyes as he looked back at the giant stone. The old man couldn’t shift his eyes away anymore.

“...however, it will depend on whose hands this stone falls into. In front of non-cultivators, naturally it is useless. But in our eyes, it couldn’t even be bought with ten thousand gold. Such simplified descriptions, describing the profoundness of sword art... If we sell this item, it would be at least worth two hundred Grade Four beast crystals. If I give it to my Senior Master, who is searching for a disciple, I can con him for more and also make him owe me a huge favor!”

Lei Dong said this gleefully, and was even more excited, slowly entering a delusional state, “If I pass it down it would be even more amazing. ‘Lei Dong, before completing his blade technique, was comprehending the martial path at Fallen Cloud Waterfall. Coincidentally he met Sword God Zong Shou as they discussed their theories of the blade and the sword. As they clicked with one another, they became sworn brothers’.

“Don’t you feel that is quite poetic and legendary? Who knows if this stone will be sold for a sky high price and bless my descendants. I heard that a rock that the former Blade Saint sat on was sold for ten thousand Grade Four beast crystals. What about this rock? Ask someone to carry this rock away. If it is hurt or damaged, I will hold all of you responsible!”

The black shirt man trembled, unable to say a word. After a long while he calmed down. “Sire this was really left by the Gantian Mountain Prince Zong Shou? I heard that he is only Thirteen. Thirteen years old and he can grasp sword intent?”

“Who’s lying to you!? When did I ever lie to you?! From now on he is my brother, you all have to call him Second Young Master!”

Lei Dong laughed coldly as he looked towards that giant stone. The stone weighed hundreds of tons. A dozen black-shirted servants working together was barely able to move it. They used all their strength, their faces all turning red, but they were still unable to carry it away.

Lei Dong was helpless, thinking that these few fellows were a little too useless. Waving his one hundred and fifty foot giant blade, he cut off the excess rock in three cuts, and all that remained were the essence of the three marks.

He frowned. With Zong Shou’s sword mark there, wouldn’t the blade mark he left seem a little too weak? He was totally beaten by his brother...

If any descendants saw that, wouldn’t they mock him? It wasn’t too good...

His eyes turned as he cut out with another two strokes, covering up the original blade marks. Only then did he nod in satisfaction.

Only then did the old man regain his senses, sucking in a cold breath. “In this world, there are actually thirteen-year-olds whose sword art is one with the spirit. This prince has hid it really deep. If this is really the case, your brother’s future achievements will be extraordinary. I’ll rush to Cloud Saint City later to protect him well! Sir, do you want to give this stone to master to make Second Young Master his disciple?”

“I have such an intention, but he might not want to. With his soft on the outside, hard on the inside personality, he seems humble, but is actually very arrogant inside. You can go, but don’t let him notice you. Follow him in the dark, I would like to see my brother’s ability. Be it wanting to fight for the Monster King Throne or leaving Donglin Cloud Continent, it is his choice...”

—

Lei Dong shook his head as he handed down some instructions. Seeing that his servants had already shifted that giant stone, which was now only a fifth its previous size, onto a carriage at the side, he walked over to the river and into the water.

Only to see that what the river water reflected was an unkempt big man, he couldn’t help but mock himself.

“Three years of comprehension, I have toured hundreds of sites and blades, and apart from them, I have nothing else in my heart. Unknowingly, in such a short time I have become like this! If Miss Zhenru saw this, how pained would she feel!”

Sighing to himself, Lei Dong actually picked up that giant blade and shaved himself.

After washing up, he was a totally changed person. His entire aura changed, his body was still magnificent, his looks much more handsome, and he had a more refined aura.

Right hand raising the blade, looking excitedly towards the heavens, his blade intent was on full display.

Maniac blade Lei Dong, who had disappeared for three years, had returned. Who knew if those old friends in the Central Continent were ready?

Just as he looked up into the sky, his brows furrowed.

“Who is that? Using Qi to fly in the sky?”

In his field of view, two small dots appeared. There were two women who were travelling in the sky.

And coincidentally, he recognized the two of them.

“It’s that old lady from Taiyuan Sect, Taiyuan fairy Shui Lingbo? Why did this person come to Donglin Cloud Continent? The person behind her is Seven Spirit Sect Zhao Yanran...”

His heart moved and he remembered about the words Zong Shou said before. The person who said that Zong Shou’s sword art was one with the spirit was the latter!

“I was wondering why this old lady would come here so randomly. So it is to find a disciple! Haha! If my Brother becomes the Taiyuan sect disciple, wouldn’t that be interesting?”

The corner of his lips raised as Lei Dong also suddenly rose into the air. A blade shadow swept towards the sky.

—

The image in the sky reacted quickly too, her body flashing slightly, and she managed to dodge it.

One of them was Zhao Yanran. The one leading the way was wearing a red robe as she looked down, her face totally green.

“Which crazy person wants to die?”

When he looked at the person charging at them, her expression changed. “Maniac Blade Lei Dong? You don’t have enough problems, and you actually want to anger me! I have something going on, I’m not free to deal with you, scram!” Heavily stepping down with her foot, she scattered a blade strike.

Lei Dong burst out laughing instead. “My blade intent has reached the small success stage, my Hundred Dragon blade has also increased twenty-five percent, and I wanted to test it out! Taiyuan fairy you came at the right time!”

The blade shadow disappeared, but in the next instant it covered the clouds, the blade glow like a dragon as it totally covered the sky.

Shui Lingbo’s eyes was now extremely solemn and cold. Lei Dong’s blade was like a scenic painting made of ink, unrestrained and filled with energy. Although there wasn’t any killing intent, the fighting spirit was extremely strong.

Her expression as cold as ice, her sharpness reached its maximum as she pulled out a red sword, stabbing down from above. The sword shadow exploded out, just like the sun hanging in mid air, directly clashing with those saber glows.

“Anyone who dares to stop me now will only die!”

With a sharp ringing, numerous sharp winds burst out throughout the sky. Dust and sand flew in the entire area. The trees on the ground either snapped or were bent under this huge storm. The many walking or flying beasts in the forests scattered.

Zhao Yanran was standing causally not far away, looking on aimlessly. Although she was unable to use her qi to continue travelling, she was able to land light as a feather after she opened up a red umbrella.

As she fell four thousand feet, her eyes suddenly focused on a stone being loaded on a carriage below.

Although in the air above there was an intense battle, it couldn’t attract any of her attention. Her eyes were fixed on that huge rock.

In the next moment, she laughed. So that was the case. With that guy’s personality, how could such a top treasure be hidden in the sand for so long?
