Chapter 147: Gathering of the Dragons and Phoenixes
Walking forward clamly while the wind and lightning dispersed, Jian Shen began taking his steps inside the banquet hall.
"You did that to impress the women, didn't you?!"
'No comment.'
"Sigh. what a poor wife I am... "
'Stop with the acting little wifey.'
"Humph! As expected you really as a playboy!"
'I don't know what to tell you.'
As expected Jian Shen did become the centre of attraction due to what he did.
And even if he didn't make such a dazzling entrance, his appearance would've made him the centre of attraction anyway.
'Whom do you think are the best beauties here?'
"No comment."
"Is that a question any husband asks his wife?"
"PLAYBOY!"
While Jian Shen was observing the various men and women inside the banquet, mostly the women. The others were also observing him.
Even though he wasn't dressed in the robes of any Sect, Jian Shen's portrait was quite famous in all of the sects, and to the nobles of the two Empires due to what happened during the Great Assessment.
Not to mention how the Great Sect of Lust publicized about their Core Disciple Jian Shen who was the youngest Half-step Dharma Cultivator to ever exist in the Wu Yun Continent.
Therefore, all of them quickly recognized who the one that made such a vibrant entrance was.
Looking around for a few seconds, Jian Shen started walking towards a group of girls who were dressed in lavish robes.
Due to the lack of Sect robes, and tokens on their fingers, Jian Shen guessed that they were the nobility related to the Yueliang Empire.
Walking near them Jian Shen was just about to say something when one of the men close by got in between them.
Seeing this not just Jian Shen, but the five women he was walking towards frowned as well.
"Hello. I'm Li Hui, the Crown Prince of the Yueliang Empire, it's nice to meet y... "
Ignoring the man who was speaking even though he just said that he was the Crown Prince, Jian Shen tried to go around him when he once again spoke up.
"I'm the Yueliang Empire's Crown Prince! Do you know who you're dealing with here Jian Shen? I... "
Interrupting Li Hui, Jian Shen shook his head and said, "No I don't. But it looks like you know me. Guess that makes me the famous one."
"Want my autograph?"
Hearing those words Li Hui gritted his teeth from humiliation, while two of the five women actually nodded their heads.
"Who do you think you are speaking to the crown prince like that? I'm going to represent the Thousand Sword Sect to teach you a lesson! Take this!"
Rolling his eyes towards whoever it was that was trying to curry a favour with Li Hui, Jian Shen barely glanced towards the Dharma Cultivator who was attacking him with his sword.
Shhhh!
"You dodged it? Let's see how you dodge this one!"
Shaking his head with a disapproving look, Jian Shen said, "You don't dodge a sword. You read it."
Once again manoeuvring his body and letting it barely miss the sword with the same calm smile and look as always.
"Thousand Sword Sect Special Technique - Fifty Swords of Justice!"
Narrowing his eyes towards this attack, since the man's sword seemed to split into fifty different swords and attacked him from all directions, Jian Shen finally revealed a little of his power.
Wings of Kun Peng.
With wind and lightning surrounding his legs, Jian Shen evaded each of the illusionary swords and arrived in front of the one who was attacking him.
"Too slow."
Pulling his Myriad God Sword out in a blink, Jian Shen slashed it forward.
Clang!
Standing a few steps behind the man whom he just struck, it was quite difficult to see what was the result of the quick-paced collision which took place between them.
'Trying to win against a disciple of the Thousand Sword Sect in a fight by using a sword? What a joke!'
"Did you think you managed to block my sword?"
Placing the Myriad God Sword in the same place as always Jian Shen started walking towards the girls he originally set out for.
"Unfortunately, I managed to cut you."
"AAAAAAAAAAAAA! MY HANDDDDD!!!"
Clenching his left arm which had been cleanly cut off at its elbow, the man glared towards Jian Shen while roaring in pain.
There was nothing more humiliating for a sword cultivator than to lose his hand. Even if it was just the left hand, this humiliation would be something that the cultivator wouldn't be able to write off his whole life.
In that instant, the whole banquet hall turned silent and everyone sucked in a cold breath.
Cutting an arm of a disciple from the Thousand Sword Sect just because he dared to attack him? Fuck!
Even Li Hui who wanted to attack Jian Shen and teach him a lesson unconsciously took a step back from the frivolous looking madman.
In the banquet with so many Core Disciples who represented the peak strength of their respective sects, not many were willing to step forward and become the next victim.
As for those really strong males and females who were gathered, they all smiled and waited to see what would happen next.
After all, there was no way those from the Thousand Sword Sect would take what just happened lying down.
"Now where were we ladies? Oh yes, I was just about to introduce myself. I'm... "
"Did you think you could just walk away after injuring someone from my Sect, Jian Shen?"
Sighing at how people just kept on interfering, Jian Shen suddenly felt that he heard that voice somewhere.
But before that, pulling the Sword of Despair with his left hand Jian Shen turned around and slashed it upwards.
Clang!
"Long time no see, Li Mei."
