Chapter 118: Who Is He?
In front of the first Divine Hall, there were fully hundreds of people.
At this moment, all of them were in an uproar.
“Who is he? How is he so overbearing?”
“Although everyone is contending for the first Divine Hall, this is the first one so overbearing!”
“Is this person the Chen Family’s Guardian?”
“He has incurred public anger…”
Ji Qing, however, did not pay attention to these people’s discussions.
Public anger?
The public anger of the weak is nothing worth mentioning.
He only needed to ensure that Chen Lin entered every Divine Hall.
As for the others
They were not within his considerations.
What’s more, Chen Luo had said that in the Secret Realm, one must compete!
Every Demon Slayer was in a competitive relationship.
“Are all your Chen Family’s Guardians so overbearing?”
At this time, someone asked the Chen Family’s Demon Slayers.
There were some connections between the major Demon Slayer Families, and many knew each other.
“He…”
Many Demon Slayers from the Chen Family opened their mouths but said nothing.
They actually envied Chen Lin very much.
Even jealous.
Having a Guardian like Ji Qing.
However, they were ultimately one family; no matter how intense the internal competition, when facing outsiders, they still had to stand united.
Therefore, no one revealed Ji Qing’s identity.
Some Demon Slayers prepared to have their Guardians take action to “drive away” Ji Qing.
Those who could become Guardians were mostly Second-Rank Martial Artists.
A small portion had reached First-rate!
But these Guardians looked at Ji Qing, each frowning tightly.
Unlike the Demon Slayers.
These Jianghu Martial Artists had just seen the saber strike Ji Qing unleashed, and each felt extremely grave in their hearts.
“Night Uncle, if you take action, can you defeat this person?”
At this time, a Demon Slayer asked his own family’s Guardian.
“Night Uncle” looked grave and said in a deep voice: “Young Master Yu, that saber strike he just unleashed looked simple, without any flourish, but in reality, it was very terrifying! Young Master Yu, did you see clearly how he Drew Sword?”
“How he Drew Sword?”
“Young Master Yu” was slightly stunned.
He really hadn’t seen clearly how Ji Qing Drew Sword.
After the reminder, he carefully recalled.
The result shocked him even more.
He actually truly could not recall how Ji Qing Drew Sword.
In his memory, there was only a dazzling Blade Light, and he had no impression of anything else.
“I didn’t notice…”
“Night Uncle” sighed deeply and said: “Young Master Yu, actually, it’s not that you didn’t notice, but that you couldn’t see clearly! Even if given another chance, you probably still wouldn’t be able to see it.”
“Not just you—even I couldn’t see it…”
“What? Night Uncle couldn’t see it either? That’s impossible. You are a First-rate Expert in the Jianghu…”
Others might not know “Night Uncle”‘s strength, but “Young Master Yu” knew it clearly.
This was a First-rate Expert.
In the Jianghu, that meant dominating one side!
He had paid a great price to invite “Night Uncle” as his Guardian.
He had even used favors from his family.
Yet such a great expert said he couldn’t see the opponent Draw Sword?
Was that possible?
“Night Uncle” looked grave and said word by word: “This person’s reputation, ‘Young Master Yu’ should have heard of as well. Black clothes, Conical Hat, Long Saber, and that signature head of white hair.”
“If I haven’t guessed wrong, he is the currently most renowned ‘Astonishing Swan Saber’ Ji Qing in the Jianghu!”
As “Night Uncle”‘s words fell, “Young Master Yu”‘s expression changed drastically.
“He is the ‘Astonishing Swan Saber’ Ji Qing? He actually came to the Secret Realm too? And became a Chen Family member’s Guardian…”
“Young Master Yu” was indeed very shocked.
Astonishing Swan Saber—Ji Qing!
Currently in the Jianghu, his reputation had reached its peak!
Killed Du Chen, slew the Poison Demon, chased the culprit for a thousand li!
Single-handedly wiped out a sect, unparalleled elegance!
And not long ago, publicly slew Demons at Yunmeng River!
All these reputations, even non-Jianghu people had heard the various rumors about “Ji Qing”.
It wasn’t just “Night Uncle” who guessed Ji Qing’s identity.
Any Martial Artist in the Jianghu with a name had more or less guessed Ji Qing’s identity at this moment.
But the more they knew, the less anyone stepped forward.
Instead, they all fell silent.
Ji Qing had single-handedly wiped out a sect, almost a killing god in the Jianghu!
The number of First-rate Experts who died at Ji Qing’s hand had already exceeded ten!
Who among the Jianghu people dared to provoke such a killing god?
Although in the Secret Realm, no one would die.
Once there was life-threatening danger, they would be instantly teleported out of the Secret Realm.
But once teleported out of the Secret Realm, it meant elimination.
They could no longer enter the Secret Realm.
This was a huge cost that all Demon Slayers could not bear.
Therefore, even though each one was dissatisfied with Ji Qing’s overbearing behavior.
In the end, not a single one stepped forward.
Just like that, Ji Qing deterred countless Guardians and Demon Slayers with just a name.
Forcing them to obediently wait in front of the first Divine Hall.
Finally, the first Divine Hall reopened.
A Demon Slayer walked out from inside.
This Demon Slayer’s expression didn’t look too good.
It seemed he had “failed” and hadn’t obtained the Ancestral Inheritance.
“Chen Lin, go in.”
Ji Qing said to Chen Lin.
“Okay!”
Chen Lin nodded.
She then flashed and entered the first Divine Hall.
Chen Lin secretly vowed to cherish this opportunity.
After all, this was an opportunity that Ji Qing had “fought for” her by suppressing hundreds of people single-handedly.
Many Chen Family members envied such an opportunity, so she naturally had to seize it well.
At this time, a Chen Family member gritted her teeth, stepped forward to Ji Qing, and said respectfully: “Mister Ji, I am Chen Jing, Chen Lin’s cousin. After Chen Lin comes out, can I enter the Divine Hall next?”
Chen Jing was very good at choosing the timing.
Not just Chen Jing, the other Chen Family members also looked at Ji Qing with expectant expressions.
Ji Qing didn’t even open his eyes and said indifferently: “Ji Mou is Chen Lin’s Guardian and is only responsible for Chen Lin alone! If you want to enter the Divine Hall, you or your Guardians can strive for it yourselves.”
“Uh…”
Chen Jing’s expression stiffened slightly.
She had originally been thinking of “taking advantage”.
Or using the “Chen Family”‘s name to get Ji Qing to give the Chen Family Demon Slayers some benefits.
As a result, Ji Qing gave no face at all.
“Mister Ji, you were invited by my Chen Family to become a Guardian and should work for the Chen Family. You…”
Chen Jing took another step forward.
Unknowingly, her left foot had even stepped on the line Ji Qing had drawn.
“Swish”.
Ji Qing suddenly opened his eyes.
His gaze fixed on Chen Jing, full of cold indifference.
“You crossed the line!”
“What?”
Chen Jing looked down and saw her foot indeed stepping on the line.
“Clang”.
The next moment, Ji Qing Drew Sword.
“Mister Ji, show mercy…”
That was Chen Jing’s Guardian, who noticed something wrong first.
Unfortunately, it was too late!
Ji Qing’s saber swept across, and the Blade Light instantly enveloped Chen Jing.
It even enveloped Chen Jing’s Guardian behind her as well.
“Whoosh”.
Immediately after, the two disappeared together.
Clearly, the Secret Realm judged them to be under life threat and directly teleported them out.
This also meant that Chen Jing was eliminated!
