Chapter 869: Another Group Of Trash
Chapter 869: Another Group Of Trash
(Lian Li POV)
“Master? Is there a reason why you rejected their plea for help?” I asked.
Master chuckled, “Oh, that might seem a little bit uncharacteristic of me doesn’t it? The ‘Demon God’ they were talking about was a former Dark Sect member from our Plane that got transported here. He caused quite a bit of trouble but got put down after the top Sects ganged up on him. Pretty sad isn’t it?”
Dark Sect again?! You pieces of trash have always been a bother to Master! Even in a new Plane you’re still being a nuisance to Master?!
Master continued, “Well, he still went through surviving the Spiritual Plane so that’s quite a feat. Anyway, like I had said, it’s not a problem I want to be involved in.”
Ah… I see!
Master is truly too benevolent!!
Despite the other person being a member of the Dark Sect, Master felt that it was too cruel of Him to raise His hand against someone from our Plane!
Hnnnngg!! Master’s benevolence truly knows no bounds!! Master was even willing to forgive this trash from the Dark Sect! As expected of Master!
But… This is why Brendan, my sisters and I are here Master. Master is too benevolent, if we allow such useless trash to fester, they will definitely bring Master trouble in the future…
I shared a look with my other sisters and they all gave me a nod.
Looks like we are all of the accord that we would definitely be wiping these trash from existence before they can become a hindrance to Master.
Hmmm… We’ll need to convince Master to stay here for a while and not let Master know about what we’re planning. If we were to search for this group of trash alone, it might take us a bit of time considering we don’t have our usual people here to help us.
Ah! We can just make those people from before tell us everything they know! That would definitely shorten the time!
If they prove to be hindrances too, then we’ll just remove them too. Anyone who is a nuisance to Master is unnecessary.
“Papa! ‘Bwig’ cave!” Cai Hong squealed excitedly.
“Haha, indeed. It’s quite a big cave isn’t it?” Master laughed.
Mmm~ I’ll never get tired of hearing that sweet, melodious sound! Ehehehe~
It’s such a shame that this Plane isn’t able to recognise Master’s greatness. Master also doesn’t seem intent on staying here so we won’t have much chance to start educating anyone either… I wonder how the people we converted in the Spiritual Plane were doing?
We gave them the proper education course so they should know the basics at least. Maybe we could ask Master to let us go back to take a look around for a bit?
“Careful now, it might not be a big deal for us but activating the traps here can make things a bit annoying,” Master cautioned as we made our way into the cave.
Ah! It looks like I was careless, I shouldn’t be thinking about other things when Master is in front of me right now!
Not good, I need to concentrate entirely on Master that is in front of me right now!
Right then, the sound of metal clashing against metal rang out from inside the cave.
How odd, Master said that the people around here usually avoided coming to this cave because they were too weak to challenge it. So why are there people currently fighting here?
We continued deeper into the cave and found a pair of Practitioners duelling each other with their swords in a deadly dance. Honestly, their skills look to be subpar and I don’t doubt Eris could handle both of them by herself.
“Haha! It’s an honour to cross swords with you, Sword Goddess Jian!” The man on the right shouted, unleashing a flurry of blows.
“I cannot say the same to you, Sword God Dao!” The woman replied, parrying all the blows effortlessly.
“Ha! After I defeat you, I’ll blow past this treasure vault and obtain the treasured Sword of the Nine Heavens! I’ll become the strongest in this entire continent!”
“Not if I cut you down first!”
Ugh… Even myself who had not spent as much time training in the sword as Eris could see that their strikes were unrefined and crude. Yet they have the audacity to call themselves a Sword God and Sword Goddess?
“What should we do Master? Do ya’ think it’s good fer’ me to cut dem’ down?”
Master shook His head, “Let’s just walk past them. If they try to stop us, you can deal with them, Laverna.”
“Understood… Eh?! Wait ta’ minute! Why not me, Master?!”
“Because you’ll just drag the fight out unnecessarily. Like I said, Laverna, you’ll handle it.”
Eris’s face turned tranquil and she bowed her head before moving her hand to rest at the hilt of her sword.
Our group stuck to the side of the cave and tried to move past the duel without interfering with it. But just like how Master had anticipated, the two of them stopped and glared at us.
“Who are you people?! How dare you interrupt our duel?!” The man demanded, pointing his sword at us.
To even dare point his sword at Master was enough of a reason for us to kill him, but since Master had explicitly stated that Eris, or rather Laverna, would deal with it, we had to hold back.
Master waved His hand, “We’re just passing through, no need to mind us.”
This time it was the woman who pointed her sword, “You’re aiming for the Sword of the Nine Heavens too aren’t you?! Like hell I’m letting some nobody have it! The sword can only be used by a true master of the blade!”
Master tilted His head at her, “You’re confident of surviving the traps and the maze inside?”
“Hmph! Of course! There’s nothing a Sword God like me can’t handle!” The man boasted proudly.
What an idiot.
Master acted surprised, “Oh! A Sword God? What do you need to do to become one?”
The man sneered, “Ha? You don’t even know such a thing? Are you living under a rock all this time? And what’s with those girls you are surrounding yourself with? You think this is a place for you to indulge in your desires?!”
Umm… Even if it’s a little embarrassing… If Master told me that He wanted to do it right here and now… I wouldn’t mind…
Ahhh!! What am I thinking! How shameless!!
The woman shook her head, “To obtain such a title is to achieve the highest possible proficiency in the sword! Something only one out of a billion people can even dream of achieving! For you to ask such questions, you’re obviously not worthy! Now begone else I cut you down from where you stand!”
Master looked a little exasperated now, “Laverna, go ahead. Don’t need to kill them though.”
“Understood…”
Eris… I mean, Laverna stepped forward and stood in a relaxed stance in front of the two.
The man raised an eyebrow, “Oh? You’re a swordswoman too? Are you perhaps that idiot’s bodyguard?”
HOW
DARE
YOU?!!
HOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOUHOWDAREYOU?!!!!!!
I’LL CRUSH YOU!!! I’LL KILL YOU!!! I’LL DESTROY YOU!! I’LL–
“Ahem… Like I said, Laverna, don’t kill.”
The swordswoman unclenched her fist, “Understood…”
In the next moment, both the pieces of trash were standing naked, their clothes having been cut to shreds by Leaverna.
She then turned her back on them and rejoined us, looking a little dejected that she wasn’t allowed to kill them.
The two idiots took a moment to realise what happened and quickly moved to cover themselves, the woman letting out a scream of surprise. They were now too occupied with their sudden state of undress than stopping us.
“Alright, let’s go,” Master instructed, already losing interest in them.
I fell a step behind Master and quietly took out a leather bound book from my storage ring.
Flipping open to an empty page, I quickly scribbled “Sword ‘goddess’ Jian” and “Sword ‘god’ Dao” in it before storing the book away.
They will die very painfully, just not today.
