Thriller Paradise
chapter-773

Zhao Yun and the sword monarch’s twelve haters found it difficult to respond to the person’s inexplicable answer.

The flood Dragon’s reaction was … It immediately removed its unparalleled awakened state and took a big step back.”Damn it … Count yourselves lucky today. I’ll get back at you for this sooner or later!” After saying these harsh words, he turned around and quickly fled into the distance.

Flood Dragon was a smart man. Currently, all the infernal soldiers he had led had been killed by Zhao Yun. Furthermore, he was fighting one against three (he did not think much of Xiao Tan, so he did not count him in), so he was obviously at a disadvantage. It was better to retreat before he was injured. Otherwise … If they continued to fight like this, he might not be able to leave even if he wanted to.

"Are we just going to let him go like this?” Xiao Tan looked like he wanted to chase after him because he felt … If he did not get rid of this person, he would become a big problem.

"As the saying goes,’do not chase after a cornered enemy’…” Zhao Yun replied,”let him be.”

General Zhao was still very good with his words. He said something like

“let him do as he wishes,” as if they were the ones who let Jiao off. But in fact … With the current situation, they had no choice but to let him go …

Putting aside the fact that sword monarch’s hands had yet to fully recover, Zhao Yun himself … He had suffered some injuries in the battle with the demonic armament.

If the flood Dragon fought and retreated, they would not be able to gain any advantage.

"Uh … Alright.” When Xiao Tan heard that, he did not say much. Of the four people present, he was the weakest no matter how one looked at it. In the battle just now, he did not play any positive role. Under such circumstances, he was too embarrassed to make a fuss about chasing after them.

"That’s right, I’m Zhao Zilong from Changshan …” Zhao Yun then looked at the man who had scared the flood Dragon away.”I have yet to ask …”

"Are you alright?” Unexpectedly, that person completely ignored Zhao Yun and walked straight to the front of the sword monarch’s twelve haters. He maintained his smug and annoying appearance and said with his eyes closed,”are you okay? Miss. It’s done! Don’t ask me … You better not ask me! Please don’t fall in love with me, because a wastrel doesn’t need a woman. Wastrels are all very lonely …”

Sword King was shocked when he heard the word

“miss”. He didn’t know how to respond … He wanted to say something, but she just kept talking and didn’t give him a chance to interrupt.

"Alright … Goodbye, miss.” The man continued,”eh? You seem to want to say something? If you don ‘t, I’m leaving … I know what you’re thinking, but we’re from different worlds … It’s impossible between us.

“Just think of me as a cloud that passes through your heart … Just remember this …” At this point, he turned around, his long robe fluttering in the wind, leaving behind a back that hid his achievements and fame.”Sigh … Another girl is going to cry for me. I’m really an amazing man!” Wahahahahaha …”

Before he had gone far, he laughed out loud, which made his few seconds of forced coolness look even more LOW …

"Sword King … Aren’t you going to say anything?” Sister Yun moved two steps to the side and asked in a low voice.

"It’s not necessary …” Sword King replied in a soft voice,”since he’s gone … Let him go …”

Sword King was indeed the successor of Confucianism. He had an extraordinary demeanor. Under such circumstances, if he were to say,”brother, I’m a man,” then the situation would definitely become extremely awkward. It was better to just stay silent and let the other party leave …

As the saying goes, endure for a while and everything will be calm, then take a step back and stay away from Chuunibyou.

"But … Speaking of which …” Zhao Yun continued,”Sword King, your hairstyle …”

"It’s easy for people to misunderstand …” Sword King continued.

"Mm …” Zhao Yun nodded.

"You two!” This time, Xiao Tan jogged to the two.”Thank you for your help.”

"There’s no need to be so polite, righteous man. ” Zhao Yun replied,”all of Yuan lü Zhi’s enemies are my friends.”

On the other side, Sword King looked at Xiao Tan, wanting to ask for his name.”I have not learned …”

"I’m sighing in vain. ” Xiao Tan also turned to Sword King.”I wonder what your name is, Sir?”

"I don’t deserve to be called a hero, but the sword King’s twelve loathing … Is just a question to the swordsman.” Sword King replied.

"So, it’s brother Sword King. I’m sorry …” Even though Xiao Tan did not know Sword King, from the way he looked, he could tell that the man was probably from ‘Thunderbolt puppet show’. And from his appearance, the way he spoke, and the title of his poem, one could roughly guess what kind of person he was.

"By the way, may I ask … Do the two of you know how to get to the demon City?” After some small talk, Xiao Tan asked a more practical question.

"Demonic city?” A look of suspicion appeared on Yun Zhao’s face.

"Uh … It’s the place where the martial arts competition is held.” Wang Tanzhi added.

"Oh, it’s Gu Zhicheng, right?” Zhao Yun continued.

"Ah, yes, yes, Gu Zhicheng.” Xiao Tan answered quickly. He had taken the word ‘Demon City’ for granted. After Zhao Yun’s reminder, Xiao Tan realized that the city should be called ‘ancient records city’.

"Little brother Wang, you’re going to Gu Zhi city … Could it be that you’re also going to participate in the ‘unparalleled martial competition’?” Sword King asked.

"Yes, I want to go.” Xiao Tan nodded with determination.

When Sword King heard that, he immediately turned to exchange a look with Zhao Yun. Even though they did not speak, their expressions showed that they both thought Xiao Tan was going to die.

"Ah … Forgive me for being blunt …” Sword King thought for a moment and decided to say the unpleasant words himself,”little brother, I don’t doubt your determination to challenge Yuan lü Zhi, but … Do you have the confidence to pass the threshold of the martial competition?”

"Ha?” Xiao Tan was honest.”Threshold?”

"So you don’t know?

“No wonder …” Zhao Yun revealed an expression of sudden realization.”The righteous swordsman … To participate in the martial competition, he must pass a test.”

"Oh?”

“What test?” Xiao Tan asked.

…………

At the same time, outside Gu Zhi city, Wushuang plain.

There was originally no name for this place because it was a place that had appeared after Yuan lü Zhi had distorted time and space.

He didn’t know when it started, but people started to call it that …

A Demon City was floating in the gloomy clouds. Below the city … Was yellow soil, dried rocks, cold wind, and broken bones …

Rivers of lava interwove on the wasteland. Huge bridges made of chains and iron bars crossed the rivers of fire, forming many transportation hubs.

Broken weapons, the remains of carriages and armors, the dried bones, and so on … All of them decorated this somber land.

"Under the snake Devil City, the tomb of unparalleled heroes.”

Wushuang Plains had witnessed too many earth-shattering, touching battles, and too many deaths and farewells …

That day, a cold figure appeared in front of a suspension bridge of the fire River.

This bridge was one of the four paths leading to the

“unparalleled martial arts competition arena” under ancient records city, and the bridge was heavily guarded … In addition to more than 500 demon soldiers and five corporal judges, there were also three demon generals, namely bi an [hundred-eyed ghost],[bull ghost], and [iron rat].

The three of them were named after Japan ghost legends, and they had all been featured in Ghost Parade before. However, as they were all public-faced demon generals, they still looked like the characters in the game

“unparalleled OROCHI”.

Let’s first look at himiki. Even though his name was himiki, he only had one eye on his face.

His head … From afar, it looked like an EVA prototype, but there were some differences … His skin and armor were gray, while the EVA was purple. Also, the EVA’s head armor was embedded into its head, while the EVA was wearing a single-horned helmet. The other thing was … The himiki’s helmet had a circular brim that extended to the back of his head in a fan shape. There was also a leather hems under the brim.

In terms of body size, himiki was much slimmer than the Wyrm. He had the slim body of a Ninja, long legs, thin waist, and an alluring figure. He was basically a starving version of the wind demon Kotaro. The equipment on his body was also relatively light. Other than the large metal shoulder guard on his right shoulder, there was almost no particularly thick armor on his body. It was mainly made of cloth and bandages. There was also a tattered purple belt around his waist that fluttered in the wind.

Next, it was time to look at the bull ghost.

He was also a fellow who did not live up to his name, because his head was completely like that of a wild boar’s … If he had to be related to a bull, it was that the fangs on both sides of his mouth were different from those of a normal wild boar. They were reversed in shape, like the horns of a bull.

His body shape was very simple to describe-it could be described as

“strong and stocky”. This guy was a typical strength-type demonic general. He was as tall as a giant and was more than three meters tall. His thick upper limbs were as thick as tree trunks, and he held a Mace thicker than a human. Other than two gauntlets with sharp teeth and a chain around his waist, there was nothing else on his body that could be called armor. Obviously … With his skin as thick as a city wall, he did not need any armor to protect himself.

Finally, it was time to look at iron rat.

He … Looked exactly like a flood Dragon.

It couldn’t be helped. Ordinary faces … As mentioned before, the character model wasn’t unique. Even the voice actors used the same person. If they didn’t introduce themselves, only the people in the monster army would know how to distinguish them …

‘Alright, now that I’ve finished introducing the demon generals, let’s take a look at the person who tried to cross the bridge …

She was dressed in a fitting and valiant outfit, with an ancient-looking longsword at her waist. She had a lithe and graceful figure, and a murderous aura that was as cold as ice.

A gust of wind swept across, stirring up a faint layer of dust. The man seemed to be walking through the smoke and fog, but his aura … Made people unable to look away.

"Who are you?” As she approached, a soldier at the bridgehead raised his shield to block her attack (all soldiers at the outpost were equipped with shields, while the soldiers usually only held weapons) and shouted.

"I’m going to participate in the martial competition. ” RUO Yu didn’t answer his question, but told him why she had come.

Her tone was cold, and so were her eyes. For a moment, the corporal felt a little helpless and didn’t know how to respond.

"Another one …” At this moment, iron rat’s voice was heard. He slowly walked over from the bridge.”Let me see …” As he walked over, he sized RUO Yu up from head to toe.”I don’t know you.”

"So what?” RUO Yu continued.

"Master Yuan lü Zhi has passed down the order …” Iron rat’s attitude was also quite calm.”The people who come to participate in the martial competition must not be too weak in one-on-one combat, or it will be a killjoy … So, we have to be responsible for blocking those small fish outside.” He paused for a moment.”If I know you and have an understanding of your strength, I can naturally decide whether to let you cross the bridge immediately.

“It’s a pity … I don’t know you …” He turned around and looked at the hobgoi and the bull demon in the distance.”Brothers, have you seen this guy before?”

The two of them did not speak, only silently shaking their heads.

"Hmm …” Iron rat looked at RUO Yu and said,”then there’s no other way … You have to prove your strength first before you can go over.”

"Is killing you a proof?” he asked. RUO Yu used a calm tone and asked this question without thinking.

"Hehe …” Iron rat sneered.”Don’t worry … I’m not done yet …” He raised his hand and pointed behind him.”You can choose one of them to be your opponent. As long as you can exchange ten moves with either of us and not be defeated, you can cross the bridge.” When he said this, he still looked very relaxed.”Of course … If you can really kill me, that’s even better. The others will definitely not make things difficult for you. They will immediately let you cross the bridge. That’s because … King Yuan lü Zhi loves the strong. ”

The demon generals under Yuan lü Zhi were not afraid of death. As long as Yuan lü Zhi was still alive, they could use the power of the Demon King to resurrect, so they were all a bit unafraid of death.

"Then I choose you.” RUO Yu replied impatiently,”can I do it now?”

"Hehe … Good choice. I’m the weakest of the three of us.” Iron rat laughed. He raised the spear in his hand and got into a fighting posture.

Rebuking

The only response he got was the cry of a sword.

The soul moved, and the sword arrived.

RUO Yu had used the advanced ability of [extreme efficiency],[limited burst], to free her right hand from the start.

This sword was fast, accurate, and heavy.

The blade of the sword fell from the perfect angle. It was simple and direct, without any skill.

There were no unnecessary techniques, nor were there any external sword auras. All the power was concentrated in the sword.

Bang Bang Bang

With a golden ring, the spear rose and the demonic shadow retreated.

After one move, iron rat’s expression suddenly changed and he quickly retreated several feet. His trembling hands and the cold sweat on his forehead were a Testament to the power of the sword.

The hundred-eyed demon and the bull demon, who had lost interest in the fight, instantly perked up and looked at the woman with the sword warily.

"Who the hell is this guy …” Iron rat, who had regained his posture, muttered to himself in shock,”if I hadn’t instinctively blocked it with my spear, that sword just now … Would have cut me in two …”

In this scenario, most of Yuan lü Zhi’s demon generals were experienced and knowledgeable. They had fought with many experts from different universes and planes, and had died at the hands of those people more than once. As long as it was a slightly more powerful character, the demon generals would have an impression of them. Therefore, after receiving RUO Yu’s attack, tie Shu was surprised … This female swordsman was at least a quasi-first-rate master, and he actually didn’t know her?

"I see …” RUO Yu’s voice interrupted iron rat’s thoughts.”You’re stronger than I thought … I might not be able to kill you within ten moves.”

"You … Don’t get carried away!” RUO Yu’s attitude infuriated iron rat.”I was just careless. If I get serious …”

"Don’t be so stubborn~” suddenly, another voice joined their conversation and laughed.”Even I can see that you’re scared to death~”

"Who is it?” The sound came from iron rat’s side. At this moment, iron rat was like a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow. Even the slightest movement of the grass and wind made him extremely nervous.

"Ningning’s Ninjutsu!” A soft moan was heard, and two cold glints appeared.

Iron rat’s reaction wasn’t slow either. He immediately brandished his spear and knocked away the two shurikens that were shot at him.

"Tsk … An annoying fellow has come.” When the figure of the other party appeared in the light, iron rat already knew his identity.

In the next second, a female ninja wearing a white short-sleeved shirt with her hands and feet wrapped in silk appeared in front of the crowd. She said to RUO Yu,”Yo, this lady, you’re pretty good. How about you come with me?”

Her tone of voice was very charming, with a strong sense of an older sister. However, her appearance looked like a young girl. She had short hair, a hot figure, and even her voice was delicate. It was hard to imagine that such a

“cute” woman was actually a cold Ninja in her setting.

RUO Yu looked at the other party and considered for two seconds. Then …”Sure.” He gave a concise and comprehensive answer.

"Hehe … This child doesn’t seem to like to talk much.” Ningning said with a smile.

After saying this, she turned back to look at iron rat.”Hey, you annoying fellow over there, can you make way? Our strength should be enough to participate in the martial competition, right?”

They were right, but … Iron rat had been angered by them, so they had to save some face.

"Hmph … You’re pretty confident.” Iron rat said coldly,”you’re just a spy. You can do assassinations and eavesdropping, but the martial arts competition is a head-on contest … What are you doing here?”

"What does it have to do with you?” Ningning replied,”are you going to move or not?”

"So what if I don ‘t?” As iron rat spoke, he waved his hand and made a gesture to the back. The hundreds of mo soldiers understood and took advantage of the situation to get into formation and close in ……

"What’s wrong? Are you going to disobey the orders of your King?” Ningning asked.

"Ha …” Iron rat laughed. He mimicked her mature tone and replied,”what does it have to do with you?”

"You …” Ningning was angry, but she didn’t dare to face so many mo soldiers.

Just as she was considering if she should call RUO Yu to retreat with her … A poem’s name was heard from the horizon …

"Raise your head high, thousands of Hills away, proud of the wind; It’s lonely at the top to find an opponent to discuss the sword with. ” (To be continued.)
