Reincarnation of the Human Swordsman
65
In a fairly spacious hall, where it was seen Ling Tian was listening to Yue Jian explain what was really going on at the Northern Land Gate. After hearing the explanation, Ling Tian lowered his head while tightly clenching both hands.
“So ... Now that Luo Xiao is dead, then Ling Chi orders Mu Lan to imprison you?” asked Ling Tian, confirming.
Yue Jian exhaled softly, calmed down, then replied, “Unfortunately, that is what we saw during there.” It stopped for a moment. “Ling Chi and Mu Lan teamed up to defeat the teacher, whereas we couldn't do anything.”
Ling Tian immediately turned around, walked over and sat down on the throne. His head was still bowed, but Yue Jian could feel a murderous aura so densely enveloping the entire body of the man. Not only Yue Jian, his friends also felt the same way.
Ignoring for a moment how Ling Tian was feeling, Yue Jian asked, “Then, what really happened while we were in hiding?”
There was no reply for a moment, but then Ling Tian let out a long breath. At the same time, the dense killing aura that had been felt, now began to thin as the man stood up.
“Mu Lan declared himself the new King of the Land after killing his own teacher,” Ling Tian replied. He then sat back down, propping his head with his right hand resting on the arm of the throne.
“Then how to govern? Is it better?”
“Hei ...,” Ling Qian reprimanded Yue Jian who was like indifferent to the fact that Mu Lan killed Ling Chi to become a Mainland King.
“Better!” Ling Tian looked ignoring his sister.
“Alright, I understand.” Yue Jian clenched tightly with his right hand, his eyes looking straight at Ling Tian. “Then let me come with you to finish off that jerk, Ling Tian.”
Before Ling Tian could reply, Zhang suddenly cut in, “Hei.”
Not only Zhang, Huo Lin and Ling Qian also cut, “Don't forget us, Yue Jian.”
Not directly accepting, but rather paying attention to Yue Jian and the others first, Ling Tian asked, “Did you guys help me just to get revenge for the death of your teacher? Although you guys don't know if Ling Chi—the mastermind of Luo Xiao—'s murder is really dead or not?”
Slowly Yue Jian walked over, reached out his hand forward, about to shake hands with Ling Tian. “We do want revenge, but more than that, we don't want there to be more people who feel the same suffering as us, or at least my suffering and Zhang.”
A sharp gaze and a reassuring tone of voice, Yue Jian's charisma radiated out. This young man did not lie in the least.
Smiling faintly, Ling Tian welcomed Yue Jian's helping hand, shaking hands. “Looks like I should trust Luo Xiao's student. I hope you won't let me down!”
“Please cooperate!”
...*** ...
In front of the wide-open entrance, Zhang was speechless with his eyes and mouth wide open. He immediately ran while shouting a strange voice, then said, “How long have I not seen such a luxurious meal?!”
As Zhang sat enthusiastically on the greetings of one chair circling the large long table in the middle of the room, Yue Jian sat quietly on the chair opposite Zhang. The young man watched Zhang who was so enthusiastic. “Don't you ever see food like this since you were born?”
“Huh! That's true, but somehow annoying!”
“The two of you are very kampungan,” said Huo Lin who sat quietly to the right of Yue Jian.
“Only Zhang,” Reply Yue Jian. “Do not equate me with him.”
“This is much more than enough.” Yue Jian unceasingly took the plate and filled it with the food he wanted.
“I hope you like it,” Ling Tian said as he sat down.
Yue Jian was aware that they would soon enter the battlefield against Mu Lan and the other big families. He had no idea what awaited him in the future, or how Mu Lan's strength was now. Right now, every mouthful of food that went into his mouth was very meaningful.
...***...
“That damn thing left me without a hint!” I threw a pebble into the river. The rock jumped on the water until it finally arrived across the river. “While it could be, right, he gave a little information about the topic he brought!”
I exhaled a long breath, stopping grumbling indistinctly like a madman. Although a little disappointed, I slowly walked away from the river through the path in the middle of the forest.
Some walked, I suddenly thought of something. Hm .. It seemed like that jerk Jing Lang told me something. Butwhat? I don't remember anything. Maybe I can ask her when I see her again.
...*** ...
Yue Jian, Zhang, Huo Lin, and Ling Qian marched in an army of less than a hundred men. This army of special forces had just been formed by Ling Tian to slaughter the Xuan family.
“Do not tremble!” shouted Ling Tian, standing up and facing the troops. “The Ling family is much stronger than the Xuan family! Our numbers are enough to finish them all!”
“Ya!!” answer the troops with vigor.
“Life family Ling!”
“Life Young Master Ling Tian!”
“Live! It's alive! Alive!”
*This guy is really good at lying*, thought Yue Jian. *The charisma he has got me a little reassured by him*.
The upright and burly body looked undaunted. Ling Tian turned around, riding on the horse that had been waiting since. Still without letting out the slightest hint of fear, the man raised his right hand upwards. “Let's conquer the Xuan family!”
“Ya!”
The troops moved behind Ling Tian. Ling Tian's charisma as the leader could really make the morale of the troops high.
Walking through the forest for several hours, Yue Jian and Ling Tian's army finally managed to arrive at Ling Tian's army headquarters. This place was filled with many wounded warriors, both light and heavy. In fact, there were several corpses of warriors who were laid untouched.
Ling Tian got off the horse, greeted by several warriors from the headquarters. Although it looked stiff, Yue Jian could see that Ling Tian's hands were trembling slightly. The man tried to hold back his hatred from being seen by others, but he could not lie to Yue Jian.
“What are our plans, Yue Jian,” whispered Zhang. “Are we going to move together with this team?”
“Three of you protect this team.” Yue Jian walked slowly forward. “I will pave the way by eliminating those who dare to block the way.”
