The Demon Swordsman 2
Ch. 135 - The Rise of the Devil Killer
The dislike of the residents here is certainly based, if only just simply they will willingly help. But the man seemed to be inexhaustibly scraping their food supplies. Obviously hanging on like a bitch just makes people mad at him.
"Have heard it for yourself, right? Young Master Xin, there is no need to pity a person like him. You're just gonna dirty your hands for a wasted job. And also I heard a lot of skewed issues about this guy and the guy from his village across. You better not interfere."
This time Xin Chen left his waist, "You're advising yourself?" He directed his gaze at the tramp, not intending to pity him and defended his right doing what was wrong.
"You want to keep hitting him, tomorrow he'll come again, and so on. Isn't that more futile?"
The two fell silent, Ho Xiuhan took a step forward. "What would Young Master have if he had a way to deal with this person?"
"Haish, gather your men while I search for the things I need. In five minutes you've got to get back to this place."
Xin Chen turned to the tramp, "Please wait with one of them. If you want your life to be easier without having to ask people for mercy."
The old man nodded quickly, and in a blink of an eye the person who had invited him to speak had disappeared from there.
"Heh... In the end, I'm no longer fit to be a leader, hey do you think we should file a letter of dissolution of the alliance?" Chang Wei had started to despair since hearing Xin Chen's words earlier. Directly from the son of the leader of the Sacred Sword Alliance in its heyday. The alliance suffered a setback and began to lose its name in the eyes of the public.
Compared to the listless Chang Wei, it was precisely Ho Xiuhan who was usually not interested in anything to become excited. "this is the time to shine again, comrade! Just follow what he's ordered."
Shortly after, by relying on the firecrackers the members of the Sacred Sword Alliance had regrouped. The number is no more than 20 because many of them have retired or died in the fight. Chang Wei did not intend to add any new members.
Xin Chen had come, Ho Xiuhan and Chang Wei looked at his left right and questioned something.
"Your word was gathering ingredients, there's nothing in your hands."
"Don't be stupid, he kept it in the space ring" Ho Xiuhan said.
"Good, in this way we will carry out a secret mission that requires a high level of technique in doing so. You have to be careful or not we will fail miserably and even harm our own side. Understood?"
The eyes of the originally listless members of the Sacred Sword Alliance became full of the flames of war. It felt like it had long since come back down on the real battlefield. And this time hearing those words, it seemed as if it awakened the demon-killing soul within them. There was a cheer among the men. Meanwhile Xin Chen asked the figure of the vagrant to take them to his residence.

"Warrghh I can't take it anymore!!!" chanted Chang Wei squeezed his hair in annoyance, his head looking up.
"Hey it hasn't been four hours you've been acting." this time it was Xin Chen who nagged. The sweat on his temple fell from the scorching sun.
"What the hell I thought we were going back to the era of war like the old days!"
"Don't complain to you." Xin Chen still continued his work of growing vegetables on this somewhat dry land.
"What is a secret mission that requires a high level of precision," was still unfinished as well Chang Wei's complaint. Being less careful instead of hoeing the ground, the man hoeed his own feet.
"Armghh!"
"Everything takes a high degree of precision, one of your feet that I have here, Chairman Chang Wei."
The man had retreated for a while to treat his blood-splitting leg. Helped by 20 people like this makes their work quickly completed. After speaking for quite a while finally Xin Chen knew the name of the vagrant was Yuan Chao, he used the loot to overcome the hunger in this remote village.
You could say this village is not directly opposite to the others, very hidden once and the path was a bit dangerous.
Just like the Village Escape residents in this place no more than 50 people, even only up to 30 people, most of whom are adults and aged. There were rarely any women here, other than old men and old men. It was quite strange, so no wonder the people here live in a mess. Not good at farming or cooking and only rely on game animals to eat.
Fortunately Xin Chen often studied the science of planting while in the White Fog Valley library, so for this he could help. The members of the Sacred Sword Alliance were now blending in with the villagers, seemingly able to share knowledge with each other.
It had been almost half a day since they had finally finished working on some farm fields. The grains Xin Chen had bought and the farming equipment had been neatly stored, he told them to accept it. To be able to live independently of course.
"Ah Young Master Xin is so kind-hearted, I don't think anyone will be willing to help us to this extent. I am truly grateful from the bottom of my heart. May the Young Master and the members of the alliance be happy always."
"I will leave some capital for you to grow crops, seeds that I have not bought. The important thing is you know how to plant like I exemplified." He moved his arm that felt sore.
"Then the sky is at night let us entertain you all, even if our food is very simple.." Yuan Chao felt bad even though Xin Chen said they did not mind.
The wild chickens that were so small in size were burned in the fire, Yuan Chao knew that the three chickens would not be able to fill the stomachs of the 21 people who came to his place including Xin Chen. But it seems that the alliance people are not at all concerned and are busy talking.
While Xin Chen was in seclusion, ever since more power was within him. His six senses as well as his instincts became extremely sharp.
"You smell of blood." His voice was very small but Yuan Chao could hear. His face changed worried.
"Young Master Xin, soon the chicken will be cooked. Join in here."
Xin Chen did not budge, compared to that his ears heard voices behind a house board. Feeling that something was wrong he walked in that direction before something shocking happened. Yuan Chao unsheathed the sword right at the stem of his throat. "Ma-forward one more step this sword will pierce through your neck!" Said vibrating.
The members of the Sacred Sword Alliance then stood up compactly, then took out their respective swords.
