The Assault’s Bottom Line
“Boss! Be quick! Prepare a Purple Star Academy’s Student badge for me! I will only give you fifty breaths of time!”
“About this… esteemed customer, today is Purple Star Academy’s martial exchange event’s opening day, and many people have already rented the badges to sneak inside to listen. I have rented out a great number of badges already. This period of time, I am sorry to say, but it is extremely difficult to get you an almost identical badge!”
“I will pay double!”
“Deal! Hey! Dear customer, take a look at this, here is a piece. Although it slightly differs from the rest, it will work!.”
“Take the money!”
“Good!”
….
Thinking about that event, Su Yun immediately understood what happened.
“Darn him! That ruthless owner, how dare he deceive me!”
He secretly scolded.
As time was of the essence, Su Yun hurriedly left the inn to infiltrate the Purple Star Academy.
Each badge records the student’s basic information. With the use of Profound Spirit Qi to construct a portrait, it will reveal the student’s detailed information.
Su Yun merely scanned through the portrait and did not check the detailed information. He felt as though the portrait had a little resemblance to himself and thus was sufficient. He didn’t expect that the detailed information of this particular badge represented a female!
The academy’s exchange event opening was today. The person in charge for the badge renting must have been so nervous that he actually passed me a female’s badge.
“Come, men! Take him away and hand him over to the elders for punishment!!”
The guards shouted.
“Understood!”
Everyone shouted in agreement, wanting to detain Su Yun.
Su Yun bit on down on his teeth tightly (TN: to grit one’s teeth and bear the pain to bite the bullet), and stealthily placed his hands on his sword.
Although getting detained would not pose any real danger, it would cause a huge misunderstanding, and would be difficult to handle!
This was not what Su Yun anticipated, he had to get out of this difficult situation as soon as possible!
He secretly thought.
“Eh? Aren’t you the Senior Limitless Sword God?”
At this moment, there was a loud cry of surprise.
Su Yun was startled, he turned his head and saw a man dressed in an armor of jewels walking towards him.
The guards, looked at him.
“What are you all doing?”
Seeing the guards pointing their swords at Su Yun, the man was stupefied.
“This man is suspicious, he took a fake badge and tried to sneak into my academy. He harbours ill intentions, and we will hand him to the academy to receive his judgement.” The captain of the guards shouted!
“This man calls for suspicion?” The man in an armor full of jewels asked in shock. Shortly, he smiled: “This man is a good friend of my family’s master, so I think there must be some misunderstanding!”
“Misunderstanding? How can this be a mistake?.” The guard snorted. “Also, who is your clan’s young master?”
The man dressed in a jeweled armor stated: “My master is Mu Feng of the Mu Clan, from the Mystical Mountain Range!”
“Mu… Mu Clan Young Master?”
The guard captain was evidently surprised.
Who did not know of the renowned Mu Clan?
“I would like to ask everyone not to make things difficult for this friend of mine!”
The man in the jeweled armor did not seem arrogant, and his manners remained calm and gentle.
The guard captain did not utter a word, but his gaze was set on Su Yun.
Su Yun recognized the situation, and quickly said: “I did not mean for this, but this is a rare exchange event that only happens once every three years! Thus, I forged a badge and attempted to sneak into the academy to listen. That’s all!”
“Oh? Then why didn’t you go to the field, but you somehow ended up here?”
The guard asked.
“It is crowded at the plaza, hence I wanted to drop by here and listen!”
Su Yun quibbled.
“Really?”
“Of course!”
The guards listened, and fell silent.
He looked up at the man with the jeweled armor, and took a peek at the token bound to his waist, then waved and said: “Let’s go!”
“Thanks!” The man in the armour returned by cupping one of his hands in a fist.
The guards did not utter a word and left.
After Su Yun realized what had happened, and let out a sigh of relief, wiping the sweat on his forehead, and cupped his fist to the armored man: “Thank you for helping me. If not for you, I think I would have been in deep trouble!”
“Please do not say that, Limitless Sword God. If not for you, my young master and I would have died in the hands of the bandits that day! Also, even if I didn’t come, I believe Limitless Sword God would also be safe and sound.”
The man in the jeweled armor said hastily.
Su Yun smiled: “I still do not know what your name is, brother.”
“Limitless Sword God, just call call me Mu Liu Qing!” the man in the armour smiled with his fists cupped.
“Mu Liu Qing? What a nice name!. Speaking of which… what are you doing here?”
“Oh, the cultivating exchange event has started already, hasn’t it? Being an escort leader, I have to take responsibility of my young master by doing patrols around the region! It’s better to be safe than sorry.”
Mu Liu Qing beamed.
Su Yun nodded, and out of the blue, he thought of something and expressed: “Liu Qing, whatever may happen today, please inform your young master of the Mu Clan as soon as possible, let him notify Madam Purple Star and the other representatives of Purple Star Academy to remain vigilant.”
“What’s going to happen?” Liu Qing did not understand: “What are you referring to, Limitless Sword God?”
Su Yun remained wordless.
He could not say anything bluntly, or else he might risk Mu Liu Qing thinking that he is part of what is going to happen.
“Just do what I told you.” Su Yun said after a long silence.
Mu Liu Qing listened, and although he could not understand, Su Yun had saved him and his young master’s lives before. Thinking that Su Yun would not hurt them, he did not ask more. Liu Qing then nodded and turned towards the academy’s plaza.
Swoosh, swoosh!
Suddenly!
A gust of chilled wind swirled, and two blood darts came flying in their direction.
Su Yun felt a chill down his spine, and quickly dodged.
Puchi!
