The Hedonist Sword God

Chapter 143: Shall I kill him?

Flying around without the slightest care in the world, Jian Shen who was enjoying himself didn't notice how many other cultivators were flying towards him before it was too late.

"Hmmm... Why are so many flying towards me?"

Coming to a stop in the air and floating in the same spot, Jian Shen gripped the two swords with a serious expression on his face.

Soon three cultivators flew in from the right side, while another one came from the left side.

With a quick guess, Jian Shen labelled those on his right as the various Sect Masters who brought their sects here because they were standing beside Yin Fan.

As for the one on the left, he was, Li Qiao, the Yueliang Empire's Emperor.

Gripping his sword tighter, Jian Shen communicated with Yu Yan who had woken up inside the World Crest.

'Shall I kill him, Yan'er?'

"Can you kill him with your strength? And who's your Yan'er?!"

Smiling a little at how it seemed like Yu Yan was back to being a little normal, Jian Shen said, 'You know what I mean.'

Shrugging her shoulders while sitting on the bed, Yu Yan could see the same as what Jian Shen was seeing from inside the World Crest.

"You are free to do like you please. I never really cared for him, and he didn't seem to care for me either. Everything was a pure political marriage."

Yu Yan truly meant the words that she said, because other than trying to take advantage of her situation after her family had married her away, Li Qiao most of the time didn't even seem to care if she was alive or dead.

'Which side do you two think I should support?'

"Ummm... You know that neither side is good or bad in a war, right?"

Rolling his eyes while saying, 'Of course I do, I'm not a kid who wants to support the good empire.'

'Never mind, I'll just fight for the weaker side like decided before.'

No longer glaring towards Li Qiao who was curious as to why this young boy was looking at him like that, Jian Shen turned towards Yin Fan and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"I couldn't bear being away from you for too long."

Seeing the dead look Jian Shen sent her back in response, Yin Fan pouted and said, "I came here to see who the idiot that was hogging all the Intent of Wind in the air was."

"Hogging?"

Despite knowing what the woman meant, the two swords chose to remain silent since the group would explain about it anyway.

"He really has achieved a breakthrough not too long back. Who is he, Yin Fan? Such a young Dharma Cultivator shouldn't be someone I don't know the name of. "

"Of course you know him. We were talking about him just a few moments back. He's Jian Xinyi's nephew, Jian Shen."

"Oh, that's him? He looks just like described. But how did he enter the Dharma Realm so soon? Is it due to that woman?"

The story of Jian Shen being taken away by a woman in the middle of the Great Assessment was something which all the Sect Leaders were familiar with.

This was because even though the Myriad Flame Sect's Sect Mistress was there on the spot, she didn't fare step forward and try to stop that woman.

What this could mean was that the mysterious beautiful woman had a higher cultivation than all the Sect Leaders and Emperors who had the same level of strength.

"Shhhh! Seniors like them don't like it when we juniors talk about them behind their back."

"Hehehehe, did you hear that senior Qingyu? The whole world seems to consider you a hag."

"Shut up! They at least seem to fear me, no one even knows who you are!"

Ignoring the two bickering swords, Jian Shen who was starting to hate the way he was being looked at, said, "Do you have some business with me? Also what was that hogging of the Intent of Wind you were talking about?"

Turning around in surprise at how Jian Shen dared to interrupt them, the group of Sect Leaders and the Emperor who heard the story were even more confident that the strong woman was protecting him from the shadows.

Ignoring the first question, Yin Fan chose to answer the second question.

"The various Intents of Heaven and Earth are present everywhere around us. But, they aren't limitless and using them exhausts the particular Intent around you."

"While they do recover in a while, no one uses so much Intent of Wind to fly."

Nodding his head in understanding, Jian Shen asked, "I'm using too much?"

The question was rhetorical one because Jian Shen could sense how much Intent of Wind the others were using to fly in comparison to him.

However, the amount of Qi he was using to control the Intent of Wind was too minute to be even considered as an expenditure, due to which he didn't feel like he was using too much, but the others were using too little.

"Of course you are. You can continue flying even if you only use 10% of the Intent of Wind you are using right now."

"I see."

Despite saying so, Jian Shen showed no signs of reducing the Intent of Wind he was using and looked towards them as if they should quickly say why they came here for.

"This brat! He's not even respecting us!"

Seeing the thin pale man with a sword on his back, Jian Shen guessed that it was Xu Tian, the Sect Master of the Thousand Sword Sect who just spoke.

As for the healthy-looking young boy who seemed to look younger than him in appearance, it was most likely the alchemy freak Qiao Delun. The Pill Refining Sect's Sect Master.
