Legend of the Heavenly Fruit
Eps. 248 — Conflicts In Restaurant
"I didn't think there was someone who could survive my murderous aura, you have a strong mentality as well as a young man?!" Ghost Sword smiled mockingly as he looked towards Zhou Yuan.
"If you don't pull your murderous aura right now, make no mistake I'll move to do it." Zhou Yuan answered coldly.
Ghost Sword was not offended but rather laughed out loud. "I didn't expect that after living for so long there would be a time when I would be threatened by someone in the younger generation."
Ghost Sword shook his head slowly while pulling his murderous aura back, making the people in the restaurant no longer have any trouble breathing.
The customers stared at Ghost Sword in fear, although the murderous aura was gone but none of them dared to move. The customers were afraid that it could offend the Ghost Sword which put them in danger.
"I warn you, young man, you better be careful in speaking because not everyone is as patient as I am. If not, maybe your head is already floating today." The Ghost Sword stopped his laughter from changing with a murderous look at Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan did not reply, rather did not care. Ghost Sword could feel Zhou Yuan not being afraid of him at all.
Ghost Sword did not deal with Zhou Yuan anymore when the young man did not harass him, he then turned his head towards the swordsman who knew him before.
"Seeing you know me before means you guys are indeed from the hero guild. Then how much does my head cost in there?" The Ghost Sword finds himself a fugitive from the government, and someone puts a price on his head.
The Swordsman was frightened and immediately answered the Ghost Sword question, almost all of the Hero Union warriors knew of the mission to kill the Ghost Sword, because the crime and its strength were high then the price offered was also very high.
"I don't think the price of my head has reached a hundred thousand pieces of gold..." Ghost Sword smiled faintly while shaking his head slowly, he then looked at the swordsman with a cold look. "Now to the core question, tell me about the Celestial Fruit you know and maybe I'll let the people in this restaurant live."
Hearing the statement made everyone in the restaurant even more frightened, they wanted to run away but were afraid that the Ghost Sword would instantly kill him.
Without being asked twice, the swordsman explained the information they had obtained, other than what Zhou Yuan had heard earlier it turned out that one of them knew more about the more specific Heavenly fruit.
"The heavenly fruit is now in the Noble Mu Family, they will sell it at the city auction in the middle of the night. Anyone who has a lot of money can go out there and get it..." The swordsman finished his sentence in a stammering but clearly understandable manner.
Ghost Sword stroked his chin, "Auction yes, really interesting..."
The Ghost Sword then pulled the sword at his waist before then lifting it up.
"Wait a minute, didn't you say I'd let go of life after answering your question." The Swordsman was shocked when the Ghost Sword intended to kill him.
"Hmph, you think someone like me will keep my promise, not only you but everyone in this restaurant will die." The Ghost Sword laughed before then swinging his hand.
The swordsman closed his eyes and prepared to let out his last breath but after a few seconds the pain of the sword swing had not been felt.
The swordsman opened his eyes and saw Zhou Yuan already in front of him and held back the swing of the Ghost Sword.
"Didn't he tell you what he knows and why you wanted to kill him?" Zhou Yuan smiled widely, his two fingers holding down the Ghost Sword weapon.
The Ghost Sword was a little surprised by the sudden appearance of Zhou Yuan appearing in the middle of the two, not only had the young man been able to withstand his sword swing as well.
"Do I have to have a reason not to kill, even when I'm bored, I can kill dozens if I want to..." Ghost Sword replied to Zhou Yuan's question with a smile as well.
Zhou Yuan sighed and then released the Ghost Sword weapon, "Go from here, you've already made the atmosphere of this restaurant deteriorate due to your existence."
"Young man, did I hear wrong? You throw me out, considering you've been holding my sword I won't let you live."
Zhou Yuan laughed, "It's also if you can do it."
The Ghost Sword followed laughing until he suddenly swung his sword towards Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan dodged the sword easily then twisted his body, giving a kick attack that was hard to avoid.
The twisting kick that Zhou Yuan did shocked the Ghost Sword, he immediately held back with his sword but the kick still pushed him a few steps away.
"Your abilities are so high, I'm now convinced you're an old monster who maintains his youth." The Ghost Sword tried to remain calm to hide his hand that was a little sore from the kick.
"Is age important enough, because you want to take violence I don't mind continuing this any further and I'm sure you'll regret it."
Ghost Sword laughed but his hands clenched violently, he felt Zhou Yuan threatening him blatantly. Ghost Sword might have already attacked without further ado if it wasn't Zhou Yuan but after sensing the young man's kick he had to think twice about attacking him.
In one go the Ghost Sword could sense the strength of Zhou Yuan who was in the Light Realm swordsman as well.
"I've heard about you for a long time but after living so long you only went up two levels?" After slightly exchanging attacks, Zhou Yuan so recalled back about the figure of the Ghost Sword.
Zhou Yuan knew Ghost Sword even in his first life, the strength of the masked man was already very high when a hundred years ago even though his strength was not as high as it is now.
In the past Ghost Sword was a Light Realm swordsman with 3 meridians open but currently his strength was increased to a Light Realm swordsman with 5 meridians exposed.
There have been many crimes that Ghost Sword committed in the past that made his name famous in the martial world, many parties had already tried to capture and finish him off but due to the extremely high Ghost Sword ability made him able to escape and survive until now.
Zhou Yuan exerted a deep force on his feet preparing to attack, he could see his words just now making Ghost Sword so emotional and it seemed like he was going to attack him.
Before the Ghost Sword carried out its intent Zhou Yuan had already first disappeared into the sight of the masked man and appeared right before him.
Ghost Sword was startled not to play, yet he reacted Zhou Yuan swinging his kick towards the stomach of the masked man.
Feeling unable to dodge the Ghost Sword again held back with his sword but he did not expect Zhou Yuan's kick this time to be coated with inner power that was beyond his expectations.
Zhou Yuan's kick immediately caused the Ghost Sword to be thrown far enough out of the restaurant. Zhou Yuan had indeed deliberately done so because he had no intention of fighting him inside the restaurant.
