Capítulo 1137: Chapter 446: Reneging on a Debt? (Part 2)
“I didn’t expect to receive an invitation from the senior, so I hurried over.”
“Hahaha.”
Qi Dingtian laughed heartily, “That’s putting it too formally. Hero Su, if you think highly of me, feel free to visit me for a drink when you pass by Tianqi Island.”
“Come, come, please take a seat.”
“Humph, since Master Qi has guests, we shall leave and not cause any annoyance here.”
Demon Blade and Ghost Sword then stood up from the ground. With Ghost Sword resting on the neck of Demon Blade, he sneered coldly:
“I’ll go back to rest now.”
Having said this, he glanced at the blade user:
“Today you’re lucky, but next time, it’s hard to say you’ll have such fortunate luck.”
“Demon Blade and Ghost Sword, boasting blatantly; had it not been for Master Qi’s intervention, today you would have met your doom.”
The blade user rolled his eyes, not caring if his phrasing was appropriate.
Demon Blade and Ghost Sword glared at him twice before turning to leave.
“Tired, tired.”
The elderly woman sitting on the left also stood up:
“I’ll go back to rest today, Old Qi… about that matter, we’ll discuss it later.”
“Alright, Grandma Tie, take care.”
Qi Dingtian’s attitude towards this person was notably different, appearing somewhat cautious.
This caught the attention of Yang Xiaoyun and the others, prompting them to observe Grandma Tie more closely.
They found that the elderly woman seemed unremarkable.
If there was anything to say, it was that her foot was crippled.
When she stood up, she seemed even smaller, leaning on a wooden staff, shaky with each step.
She looked no different from a regular old lady.
Yang Xiaoyun instinctively glanced at Su Mo, wondering if he had discerned anything.
But Su Mo just shook his head lightly, gaining nothing.
In the blink of an eye, the people in the hall had already departed.
Leaving Qi Dingtian and the blade user behind.
Qi Dingtian glared at the blade user:
“You’re not leaving?”
“Not leaving, not leaving.”
The blade user shook his head repeatedly, “Demon Blade and Ghost Sword must be waiting at the door to ambush me. If I leave, I could end up dying here in Qi Mansion.”
“There’s no escaping the disaster I’d bring upon you…”
“For your safety, it’s better I stay here.”
“…”
Qi Dingtian was speechless:
“Afraid of death, afraid of death, pretending to make it sound so noble… Anyone not knowing would think I’m the one about to die.”
After these words, he quickly invited Su Mo and the others to sit.
Once everyone was seated as guests and hosts, Qi Dingtian introduced the blade user to Su Mo.
“This young man’s surname is Tang, given name Feng.”
“In Jianghu, he has a nickname called Shadow Blade.”
“It’s said his blade draws as swift as shadows, often only the shadow is seen, not the blade light. As the shadow falls, heads fall too.”
After these words, Su Mo saw Cheng Suying and Duan Renjie both had subtle changes in their expressions.
Canglan Divine Blade also wielded a blade.
The siblings reacted this way upon hearing the name Shadow Blade, indicating they knew something.
Tang Feng seemed a bit dissatisfied:
“What’s this nickname?”
“It’s a term of endearment from Jianghu friends!”
“You old man grow more ignorant…”
Saying this, he glanced at Su Mo, winking and saying:
“I’ve heard about the incident on Longmu Island.
“But the stories are too exaggerated.”
“I heard the Longmu Island Master was an old monster who lived for a thousand years and wouldn’t die, yet you sliced him with one sword?”
“Others say, the root of evil was the island, not the person.”
“With a sweep of your divine eyes, you penetrated the truth, and thus later shattered the island with one sword.”
“Preventing this poison from spreading to Earth!”
“But is any of this true or false?”
Hearing this, Su Mo couldn’t help but find it amusing.
The matter of Longmu Island, after the group returned to Jianghu, became wildly distorted.
There are all sorts of versions.
Besides the exaggerated tale of Sword Shattering Dragon Wood Island, there’s the notion of Su Mo being a deity from heaven, who knew there were demons causing chaos on Dragon Wood Island, thus showing divine prowess to eliminate them.
This was completely absurd, becoming more disconnected as it spread.
Firstly, the Sword Shattering Dragon Wood Island tale wasn’t Su Mo’s doing.
That was all Shi Cheng’s fault!
Shi Cheng explained it to him afterward.
He had been fooled by Meng Feifan, trying to thwart Su Mo.
His original words were:
“I didn’t expect that the paths in the cave were extremely complex, with overwhelming ghostly shadows.”
“Vigilant in heart, I sought to explore its secrets.”
“Who would have thought I’d go too far, trapped by a maze, triggering the island’s mechanisms, leading to its collapse.”
Even more ridiculous was another claim…
That after Su Mo shattered Dragon Wood with his sword, he stirred a giant wave, directly sending all the ships away from the Chaotic Stone Sea Domain.
Such impractical stories nonetheless circulated widely.
It felt like if this continued, Su Mo’s ship would be praised as a divine vessel.
Now seeing Tang Feng the Shadow Blade inquire this way, he had no choice but to say:
“Most of the words circulating in Jianghu are unreliable.
“They’ve indeed been exaggerated.”
“If I really had the skill to shatter Dragon Wood Island with a sword, wouldn’t I simply ascend into heaven?”
“Hahahaha.”
Tang Feng laughed heartily, “Well said, well said!”
“Su… Brother Su…”
Shangguan Jingjing’s voice came at this moment.
Su Mo turned to look, seeing Young Master Ximen still standing there like a wooden stake, he suddenly understood:
