Ji Liang took the manual and tucked it into his clothes.
No one dared to grab anything from Ji Liang’s hands, but this sword manual was too tempting. Several seniors from big families gave each other a look as someone stood up and said, “This one has always admired warrior Ji’s style, but Hero Jimo entrusted this sword manual on his deathbed, and even the Lu family has no right to transfer it at will. I’m afraid it would be inappropriate to leave it to warrior Ji like this?”
The surroundings instantly erupted into an uproar.
However, a part of the crowd who actually cared about the hero’s legacy agreed very much, “Senior Ji’s swordsmanship is superb, and he has his martial style. Since his martial arts has reached a state of perfection, he is the most unlikely person in the world to practise Hero Jimo’s swordsmanship techniques— it is indeed a good strategy.”
The two factions had their own opinions and inputs, so the scene became chaotic once more as arguments broke out again.
The commotion continued until Ji Liang made a nonchalant move, throwing out a few blood-stained tokens.
Everyone looked closely and found that those were the token of the Masters of the Thirteen Villages of Chixiao.
Only then did Patriarch Lu open his mouth excitedly, “Master Jimo’s last words were that the sword manual would belong to whomever capable of destroying the Thirteen Villages of Chixiao. A few days ago, warrior Ji took the life of the leader of five villages with his own strength, which is practically almost half of the force! Now that the sword manual has to be given to another, who else possessed more qualifications to keep it besides warrior Ji?!”
Various famous sects have encircled and suppressed the men of the Thirteen Villages several times over the years. However, all they managed to target were small fries, not even managing to scrape a strand of hair of the Masters.
Now that Ji Liang had killed the five major Village Masters single-handedly, what qualifications did they have to compete with him?
Those who came hoping to obtain the sword manual looked at these tokens. After taking another look at Ji Liang’s icy cold stare, they knew that the matter was settled, and it would be hopeless for them to try and insist.
And those who harbour malicious ideas didn’t dare to snatch anything from Ji Liang, so they stopped thinking about it altogether.
The problem that was expected to require a few days and conflicts to settle was perfectly resolved in less than a morning. Many who were present felt that they were in a fog of confusion due to the efficiency.
However, Ji Liang’s appearance confirmed that the previous rumours were false.
Not only was he alive and well, but he had also made significant progress in martial arts. He was able to take the lives of the five great Village Masters single-handedly. Even though he possessed strong abilities, it probably wasn’t easy to become an enemy of the Thirteen Villages. An excellent example was what happened to the hero, Jimo Wu.
However, Ji Liang had no wife or children. Hence, he had always been alone. Even if the Thirteen Villages ended up having a grudge against him, he seemed to have nothing to fear.
A lot of discussions broke out in the martial world for a while.
Lin Feilu had been stunned since Ji Liang appeared on the stage.
Ji Liang was actually Little Pretty Boy’s Uncle Ji!
She was a little excited, but she also harboured some inexplicable emotions. Lin Feilu wanted to say hello, but warrior Ji would probably ignore her on second thought.
As soon as the matter was resolved, Ji Liang disappeared. Even though Lin Feilu wanted to find him, she didn’t know where to start. She couldn’t explain to Lin Ting how she knew the number one swordsman in the world. All she could do was hold back the surging emotions in her heart as she left and returned to the government’s office.
