“Eh? You were actually able to destroy my sword qi with ease. Your title as Sword Emperor does truly carry some weight!” A voice sounded out slowly as a woman in a one piece dress and holding a sword appeared within Tang Ye’s field of vision. The woman was very beautiful, and she had a slender figure. However, her gaze towards Tang Ye was filled with the intent to provoke him. The corners of Lu Yixuan’s mouth twitched when he saw this woman, and then he smiled with embarrassment to Tang Ye as he said, “Young Master Tang, this is our Junior City Governor, Lu Jianyao. Right, she’s a sword cultivator as well. She didn’t have any ill intent when she attacked just now, and she merely desired to spar with Young Master Tang. I hope Young Master Tang doesn’t mind!” Tang Ye said, “Young Miss Lu attained 6th level Sword Intent before the age of 20, such natural talent is....” “It’s the 7th level!” Lu Jianyao interrupted Tang Ye and said, “I heard you possess 8th level Sword Intent, is that true?” Tang Ye nodded because there was no need to conceal that. Lu Jianyao’s eyes lit up, and she said, “How about we spat?” Tang Ye shook his head because sparring with her was utterly meaningless. He refused to do something that was meaningless and a waste of his time! “Junior City Governor, the Lord City Governor is waiting for Young Master Tang!” Lu Yixuan spoke hastily because he was clearly aware of the temper this Junior City Governor of his possessed. She was stubborn and desired to excel, so she might directly draw her sword and attack Tang Ye. Lu Jianyao puckered her lips, and then she sheathed her sword and moved aside. She only glared fiercely at Tang Ye. Obviously, she was very displeased by Tang Ye’s rejection. Lu Yixuan heaved a sigh of relief, and then he said to Tang Ye, “Young Master Tang, please come this way!” Tang Ye nodded, and then he strode forward. However, Lu Jianyao suddenly drew her sword when he passed her, and an expanse of mist instantly flashed into appearance and enveloped an area of 30m around Tang Ye. On the other hand, Lu Jianyao’s attack was like an indistinct mist that couldn’t be detected at all. It was in front of Tang Ye at one more, behind him at another moment; it was like a single sword at one moment, yet it was like 100 in the next moment.... It was indistinct and unpredictable! Tang Ye frowned a little because it was the first time that he’d seen such a sword technique. It’s quite amazing. However, it was still a trivial matter to him. After all, such illusions were utterly useless towards Tang Ye who possessed the Enlightened Sword Heart. However, there were things that could be learned from this sword technique, and it was its strange and mysterious method of attack. Even though it was useless against him, but not everyone in the world possessed the Enlightened Sword Heart! Lu Jianyao was instantly delighted when she saw Tang Ye frown, and a trace of contempt and complacency appeared in her eyes. This sword technique, the Cloudmist Sword Technique, was a Heaven Rank technique, and even an Exalt Realm expert had almost been killed by her in the past. So, how could this fellow who was called the Sword Emperor, Tang Ye, be able to resist her sword technique when he was only at the Spirit Realm? Lu Jianyao flicked with her wrist, and the illusions in the mist instantly calmed down, and in the next moment, countless rays of light shot violently towards Tang Ye. Tang Ye didn’t dodge or draw his sword, and he just allowed those rays of light to surge towards him. Clang! A sword stabbed onto Tang Ye’s left shoulder. Lu Jianyao was shocked because she noticed that her sword couldn’t more an inch further. She was just about to withdraw her sword when Tang Ye pressed forward, and then he stretched out his right arm and grabbed her neck. “Young Master Tang, please show mercy!” Lu Yixuan was shocked and spoke hastily. Tang Ye gazed at her and said, “The reason you dared to attack me was merely because you think that I wouldn’t dare kill you even if I defeat you. Do you want to bet on it?” Tang Ye exerted force with his hand as he spoke, and Lu Jianyao’s countenance instantly turned ghastly pale. A wisp of terror flashed through her eyes. Her intuition told her that this man standing before her would really dare to kill her. He really dares to.... However, how could she possibly accept her defeat? How could she, Lu Jianyao, accept defeat to a man? Right at this moment, Tang Ye suddenly loosened his grip, and he let her go while he said, “Acting willfully is something you have to pay the price for. I’ve seen too many willful people throughout the years, and practically all of them are dead. Many of them even died at my hands. Those who cultivate the sword should be ones who would rather die than bend and remain eternally unyielding. We should dare to draw out swords even in the face of a formidable enemy. However, it doesn’t mean you should act like a fool and challenge someone you can’t defeat. That isn’t courage, that’s courting death. Understand?” “Are you teaching me a lesson?” Lu Jianyao glared angrily at Tang Ye. A ray of light flashed. The tip of a sword was right against the skin on the center of Lu Jianyao’s forehead, and it made her figure stiffen immediately while she didn’t dare to move a muscle. Tang Ye spoke coldly. “Do I not have the qualifications to do so?” “You....” Lu Jianyao was furious. “What!?” Tang Ye said, “Are you even a match for me? You can’t even block a single strike of my sword, so what do you have left to be proud of? Anger is for the weak. You’re angry now because you’re weak, and you don’t even have room to resist me. How could you possibly cultivate the sword if you can’t even realize that you’re weak?” Pearls of tears gradually appeared in Lu Jianyao’s eyes as she stared fixedly at Tang Ye as if she wanted to kill him with her gaze. After all, when had she ever been treated like this? She swore in her heart that she would definitely kill him! I’ll definitely kill him!Tang Ye sheathed his sword and walked towards the depths of the City Governor’s Estate without sparing another glance at Lu Jianyao. The reason he’d done that was firstly for the sake of teaching that woman a lesson. Secondly, it was to provide her with guidance and do the City Governor a favor. He believed that the City Governor had witnessed everything he did. Because he’d sensed someone watching him since he walked into this estate! “You really do deserve your reputation!” Tang Ye had just walked into the hall when a middle aged man in luxurious clothes spoke with a smile on his face.
