Reincarnation of the Human Swordsman
68
In a small room that only had one door and one window, and a table with two chairs, a sturdy figure was sitting while looking out. He relaxed his breath when he heard the door open.
“Yo, Tian Wang,” said the figure who opened the door, walking closer to the figure staring out the window. “The Jian family meeting is just your wits, right?”
The figure looking out—Tian Wang turned to the source of the voice. “You're late, Jian Lang.”
Jian Lang smiled faintly. “Sorry, but earlier something happened on the way.”
Looking indifferent, Tian Wang turned his face forward. “Sit. I'll give you a new task that you have to do without the slightest mistake.”
“Ya ..” Slightly smiling, Jian Lang sat on the chair across from Tian Wang's table.

Walking quietly among the trees, Yue Jian looked wary. The young man did not walk alone, but instead was followed by Shi Li.
A while later, Yue Jian arrived at his destination. In that place were already Zhang, Ling Tian, Huo Lin, and also Ling Qian.
Seeing Yue Jian carrying Shi Li with him, Zhang was slightly surprised, asking, “Why bring him here, Yue Jian?”
“Tenace.” Yue Jian halted his steps, glancing around calmly. “He came to me to offer information. However, there is a condition ...”
“It seems you are very sure it is profitable,” said Ling Tian who had been silent since. He stood right next to Zhang, closely observing Shi Li's movements. “Am I right?”
Yue Jian shook his head. “Maybe I should say that this is a commensurate exchange. There are no big advantages and disadvantages in this deal.”
Silent for a moment, Zhang finally let out a long breath. “Then I leave it here to you and Ling Tian.” He turned his head towards Huo Lin and Ling Qian. “We return to the battlefield.”
Before the three of them left, Yue Jian said, “Huo Lin and Ling Tian are here briefly.” He looked at Zhang.
“Good.” Unwilling to prolong the conversation, Zhang rushed back to the battlefield. “Come Ling Qian!”
“Ya!” Ling Qian immediately followed Zhang.
After Zhang and Ling Qian left, without further ado Ling Tian directly asked, “So, what's the deal?”
Yue Jian did not reply, but instead gave Shi Li a code to explain directly. Shi Li immediately understood the code.
“The Shi family and half of the Fang family are willing to join the Ling family!” shi Li said, firmly, making Ling Tian slightly flinched. Shi Li continued, “However, instead Huo Lin should teach me the skill of turning into a dragon!”
After Shi Li explained, soon Yue Jian cut in, “So, how, Huo Lin? Can you do it?” He was clearly ignoring Ling Tian's opinion right now, for the sake of getting a direct answer to Huo Lin.
Naturally Ling Tian did not protest against it, as he also respected Huo Lin in the deal today. Even so, Ling Tian seemed to expect Huo Lin to agree.
Huo Lin thought for a moment, then replied, “To be honest I don't really understand how to teach. But ...,” he was silent for a moment, “I will help you as best I can, Shi Li ...”
Hearing that, Ling Tian exhaled a sigh of relief. “Then, I look forward to your official envoy tomorrow at the Ling family residence, Shi Li!” Without hesitation, he extended a hand.
Shi Li welcomed the gesture, shaking hands with a smile. “Good ...”
...*** ...
“Awas!!!” Zhang leaped high, lunging forward, finishing off a swordsman with just one kick.
Despite doing extraordinary things, only some people pay attention to it, while others are busy with their respective battles. Zhang took advantage of this by attacking them all with his bare hands.
Seeing that Zhang was busy finishing off the enemy, Ling Qian was unwilling to lose, immediately jumped up, subverting some enemies using his consecutive blows. Now, Ling Qian and Zhang were completely crazed like no one was restricting them anymore to do as they pleased.
As moments passed, more and more enemy warriors became aware of their existence. The warriors took a few steps back, trying to keep their distance. However, keeping your distance is not an easy thing to do.
“Don't let them escape!” zhang exclaimed, instantly stomping his feet, making several ground spears stick out, attacking the opposing army.
“Strike!!” The Ling family army was growing crazier, attacking the enemy without the slightest hesitation. Their fighting morale had already increased seeing how strong Zhang and Ling Qian were on their side.
“Sialann!!!” A warrior on the enemy side, appeared to be running in frustration towards Zhang. “I'll kill you!” He swung his sword diagonally at Zhang with all his might.
“Your atmosphere will not pay off.” Not in the slightest distress, Zhang repelled the sword slash using his right hand, then his left hand launched a hard blow right into his opponent's stomach. “If you don't want to die, don't go to the battlefield.”
“Ugh!!” The swordsman who got Zhang's punch, instantly spewed out fresh blood. His entire body became limp without any energy.
However, it is clear that Zhang has no desire to forgive the swordsman. He immediately pulled the hand of his enemy, slamming the man to the point of losing his life.
“It looks like here is very festive,” said someone walking over from behind Zhang.
Without even turning his head, Zhang already knew that the voice was coming from Yue Jian. He replied calmly, “Ingin join?”
Yue Jian approached, standing right to Zhang's left. This scene certainly makes the enemy troops increasingly lose hope. Besides, Ling Tian had now also returned to being the leader of the army. The charisma of the man who had just been defeated by Fang Chu had remained unchanged in the slightest, still greatly affecting the mentality of both the Ling family army, as well as the enemy forces.
“We won this battle!” exclaimed Ling Tian, back moving to the front line.
“Ya!!” The Ling family troops grew excited as they looked at the hope before their eyes.
Yue Jian smiled faintly, about to move to the frontlines. “Let's get this over with as soon as possible and do another important thing, Zhang, Huo Lin, Ling Qian!”
“Of course,” replied Zhang, very confident.
“No need to be told,” Huo Lin looked excited.
“That's my job!” Ling Qian was no less spirited.
Unfortunately, before the four of them moved to the frontlines, suddenly the sky darkened, then a bolt of lightning boomed. The dark air that was so dense, immediately felt all the warriors who were fighting, making them all peek, too shocked to feel the dark air.
Yue Jian and the others looked up. Up there, there were three figures in black robes, hovering. Yue Jian immediately recognized one of them.
“Mu Lan ...,” muttered Yue Jian, tightly clenching both hands.
