Reincarnation of the Human Swordsman

Wh why?

Why can …?

“Ling Chen!!” I darted quickly forward with my Golden Dragon. The sword thrust forward, attacking a long-haired man who was now fleeing with his pet—Qi Lin, a deer-like creature with hard scales and a dragon head.

“The age has changed, Luo Xiao!” exclaim Ling Chen. “You're over!”

Right after Ling Chen stopped his sentence, he stopped, then many warriors riding on Dragons and Phoenixes, surrounded me. I had to stop, prepare for an all-out fight.

“Luo Xiao, you are indeed an amazing swordsman. In fact, after being poisoned with the strongest poison, you can still lift your sword. Others must be lying down and unable to do anything now,” said a long-haired old swordsman in white. His white beard looked the same length as the hair on his head.

Shit .. If I hadn't been exposed to the poison, I would have been able to finish them off easily. Fucking Ling Chen, I will curse you!

“Wait for what else?!” Ling Chen started to give the command, “He can no longer use the Chi in his body after the poison has reacted!”

“Strike!”

I didn't notice who gave the command to attack, but surely they all immediately moved to target my head. They seem to underestimate me!

I stood upright on top of the Golden Dragon, swinging the sword tightly horizontally. A violent wind wave immediately spread out in all directions, sending several warriors crashing backwards. However, forcing to use Chi when my Chi flow was blocked, made me vomit blood.

“Do not stop! His attack left him severely injured.” I knew it was the commanding voice of Ling Chen, the traitor who stabbed me in the back.

I raised the sword, pointed it at the sky. “My name is Luo Xiao, King of the Mainland, will not spare you sly and petty people!”

My sword instantly emitted a golden light, soaring high into space. As I expected, my blood was burned to the ground by this move. Moreover, the blocked Chi flow made the wounds I received multiply.

“Strike!!”

I had expected Ling Chen would not let me successfully activate this stance. However, the combined attacks of these warriors were not enough to stop me.

“Tuan ...,” said my Golden Dragon passed telepathically.

I shook my head, then replied, “Sorry, Luo Ching, I am counting on you.”

“Good, Master!”

My Golden Dragon Luo Ching— immediately gathered all of its strength in its mouth, then shot out a high-speed golden ball of light that instantly collided with the combined attacks of the warriors. The enemy's attack was indeed counterable, but as the payoff, Luo Ching lost all of her golden scales, making her become extremely weak.

“Useless!” Ling Chen was now darting at high speed towards me.

“Mainland King, Sky Punishment—” I did not have time to strike back with my strongest moves. Ling Chen managed to break through the defenses of my body with his sword, piercing my heart.

Not only me, Ling Chen's Qi Ling also managed to kill Luo Ching with a single kick in the head. Luo Ching's sacrifice, being futile ….

“Tell me, Ling Chen ...” I can no longer activate the Heaven's Punishment, but my hand still holds up the sword. “Why did you betray ..?”

“Trauded?” Ling Chen repeated. “Since the beginning, since the first time we met, we have indeed never been friends.” He stopped for a second. “Your glory days are over, Luo Xiao. The swordsman's world now belongs to darkness.”

I will soon die, but in my heart there is no regret. For some reason, when I lost everything, I did not hold any grudges against Ling Chen who snatched it away from me. Is it because I've been satisfied with my life all this time?

“Goodbye, my friend ...”
